Everything Is Good In The Grape

Not Just A Fruit To Eat

Caudalie

Now, most of us love grapes but a lot of us do not know JUST how much these little guys help our body.

Grapes have pulp which is grape water rich in oligo-elements. The grapeseeds are powerful in antioxidant polythenols which protect the skin from free radical damage and reverse the signs of ageing....and we ALL want that!! So once these polythenals have stabilized they have priceless benefits for the skin and continue to work its magic keeping the skin looking fresh, vibrant and youthful.

Some of my favorite products from Caudalie that I use everyday are....

Vinoperfect Radiance Serum: Helps strengthen your skins look for a smoother more radiant look. Vinoperfect also helps your complexion to even out any discoloration and infuses your skin to look vibrantly awake.

Who is it for you ask? made for ALL skin types and can use both day and night.

Beauty Elixir: Inspired by the "elixir of youth" used by Queen Isabelle of Hungary, this skincare smooths features, tigthen's pores and provides an instant burst of radiance to your complexion.
It is also great for tired legs, the mint helps to stimulate the blood flow in your legs to help energize and revitalize.
Great For: All skin types who want a little help to boost their complexion for the day.

Nourishing Body Lotion: All I have to say is....PREVENTS PREMATURE SKIN AGEING!!! This lotion is AMAZING!! I have been using this lotion for 2 months now and I have seen a great change in my skins radiance and resiliency. This lotion makes my skin incredibly soft and firm....all day. Also promotes micro circulation. So, working in retail I definitely need a lotion that is going to support my body being on my feet all day long. It also has a long lasting great scent of grapes all day long as well :)

Great For: anyone who is lacking moisture in their skin and needs to feel toned and tightened in certain areas of their body. This lotion is an anti ageing product with great anti-oxidants in them to keep your skin purified.

Radiance Revealing Mask: A brand new product that Caudalie has come out with. It is not currently at Blue Elephant but I did receive a wonderful sample and have become a HUGE fan!! This 2 in 1 is a formula of a mask and a gentle exfoliator. With a gentle brush applicator, this light and effective mask freshens the appearance of the skin, tightens the look of pores and gives an automatic burst of radiance in only 10 minutes.

Who is it for? everyone and you can use it 2 times a week

Now that I have enlightened you with a wonderful and glorious line come see us at the B.E. and we can help you find your perfect product!!

The Past and Present

REBECCA TAYLOR

New Zealand natives, Rebecca Taylor and Elizebeth Bugdaycay were childhood friends who realized the potential of one another's savvy skills. With their creative minds coming together, this duo became a force not to be reckoned with. While fond memories of growing up in a fairy tale seaside village in New Zealand helped their ideas pour out, it was Rebecca's childhood who blossomed the direction of the line.
Now with the success of loyal followers, the Rebecca Taylor line is bigger than ever. With star clients like Vanessa Hudgens, Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cameron Diaz and many more, this line is not hurting by the economy at all! NOT to mention cameo's on the hit show "Sex and the City", "Today Show" and"The View" doesn't hurt either. Along with one of the best awards a designer can receive in their life time....The Perry Ellis Designer Award for New Designers of America in 2000. These two are sure to stay in the fashion world!!!!
FIT: Flirty, feminine, makes a girl feel sassy, long lasting fabrics

we have this in a RAD skirt!

we have this dress in magenta

another great dress at B.E. Boutique

Come get your next HOT trend!!!

Rompers, Jumpers and One-Pieces, Oh My!

The style that embodie the 80's and 90's is back and looking better than ever. We BE ladies love the new jumpers that Marc, Mike & Chris and Cynthia Vincent have designed for their spring collections.

Now, I understand the reservations towards jumpers; thoughts of teased hair and bright blue eyeshadow may came to mind, but have no fear, these new bold, statement pieces are much more suited for today's ladies.

Pair a Marc by Marc Jacobs mini romper with a sleeveless cardi and some flats for a casual date wtih your best girls. For that nighttime look, shimmy on into 12th Street by Cynthia Vincent's black silk one-piece, throw on some sky high heels and get ready to knock 'em dead.
