Peace of Mind On-the-spot relief draws on Origins natural heritage by obtaining inspiration from Mother Nature and validation from science. This icon product, launched in 1990, is still a best-seller thanks to the powerful de-stressing properties in the key ingredients of Basil, Eucalyptus and Peppermint that are proven to produce calm feelings. This trio of nature’s peace-keeping oils initiate a rapid relaxation response to help your brain switch off and shut out worry for a while. A special pink box has been created especially for Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Origins will donate $35,000 in connection with the North American sales of Peace of Mind® to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

A half ounce bottle is 10 bucks at www.origins.com.

I’ve tried the “imitators” of this original product, and I can honestly say, they don’t hold up. If you’re a high-strung type (like me) or just have trouble relaxing occasionally, Peace of Mind will rock for you! I dab behind my ears, pulse points, and even temples when I have a migraine. Like they say… relief!

{Me} by Mezhgan is an amazing makeup line created by famed makeup artist to the stars (American Idol seasons 2-8, So you think you can dance?, Rockstar, America’s Got Talent and all the celebs and peeps behind those shows). Her philosophy is simple… you should see YOU, *not* your makeup. Sounds about right to me!

Anyhow, {me} is another makeup and cosmetics brand supporting Breast Cancer Awareness month efforts. They have discounted 2 of their popular products by over 50% and are donating a large portion of the proceeds to the Save The Ta-Tas foundation to be distributed amongst the many organizations they are involved with.

The Cheeky me blush and brush combo is a fab buy since both products normally total $55 and currently the duo is down to $25! The Tease me gloss (pink) is normally $16.50 and it’s discounted down to 7 bucks!

The blush brush in that duo has me drooling… It’s takelon, which is synthetic. Meaning no warm n’ fuzzy critter hair. I’ve been switching my brushes over to all synthetic slowly and this one is on my MUST TRY list. Plus the girly swirls and designs are tres-chic. Don’t you think?

Shop MeByMezhgan.com for both items.
