Should You Use A Face Oil

posted on : February 21, 2018 posted by : nicolesteinthal 0 Comment

About a year ago I started using a face oil at night. I was very hesitant. I thought it would make me break out and I really didn’t need that!!!!! However, it was the best things I have ever done for my skin. Oils are much better for your skin than night and day creams. They hold in moisture, and contain “superhero” nutrients, like essential acids. The result will be healthier, younger looking skin with a fresh glow, without the use of harsh chemicals. Also with a face oil, a little goes a long way and with just a couple of drops, you will see results almost immediately!!!!! Here are some of my favorites!!!

This is the one I use. I have tried a few and this one works the best for me. Click To Buy.

I also tried this one and really liked it as well! Click To Buy

Here is a good less expensive option if you just want to try oils for the first time. Click To Buy.

Here is the one Gwyneth LOVES, I used it for a while but I think it is too thick for me. Better for dryer skin!!! Click To Buy.

Book Club Monday

posted on : February 20, 2018 posted by : nicolesteinthal 0 Comment

I love the clothing designs of Zac Posen so when I heard he wrote a cookbook, Cooking With Zac: Recipes from Rustic to Refined, I had to check it out. I have not featured a cook book in a while so I thought this would be the perfect choice for Book Club Monday!

Zac Posen takes you on a culinary journey through his life with 100 recipes every bit as decadent and inspiring as his designs.

Since he was a child, world-renowned fashion designer Zac Posen has been cultivating his passion for cooking. For Zac, cooking and fashion are both sensory experiences. Whether you’re planning a meal or a fashion line, the goal is to create a masterpiece. In Cooking with Zac, Posen shares a curated collection of the favorite recipes, gathered throughout his extraordinary life–from longstanding family favorites to flavors he’s discovered while traveling the globe.

When it comes to creating meals, Zac believes in a balance between healthy, fresh, local ingredients and exotic international dishes. In the same way that he breaks down barriers on the runway, he’s not afraid of taking risks in the kitchen: recipes range from delicate summer corn salads to beer can chicken to savory dashi-glazed lotus root. So put on your most stylish apron, and get cooking with Zac! – Amazon.com

Today’s Book Club Monday choice is one of Oprah’s too!!!!, An American Marriage by Tayari Jones is a must read epic love story!!! Here is the summary:

Newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of both the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting career. But as they settle into the routine of their life together, they are ripped apart by circumstances neither could have imagined. Roy is arrested and sentenced to twelve years for a crime Celestial knows he didn’t commit. Though fiercely independent, Celestial finds herself bereft and unmoored, taking comfort in Andre, her childhood friend, and best man at their wedding. As Roy’s time in prison passes, she is unable to hold on to the love that has been her center. After five years, Roy’s conviction is suddenly overturned, and he returns to Atlanta ready to resume their life together.

This stirring love story is a profoundly insightful look into the hearts and minds of three people who are at once bound and separated by forces beyond their control. An American Marriage is a masterpiece of storytelling, an intimate look deep into the souls of people who must reckon with the past while moving forward–with hope and pain–into the future. – Amazon.com
