In honor of nine wonderful years helping consumers regain vibrant and youthful skin, MyChelle Dermaceuticals, the leader in effective, natural skin care, reflects on its beginnings. Over the years, MyChelle established a leadership role in the natural skin care industry delighting consumers, retailers and media alike, because of its powerful delivery of visible results.

Myra Michelle Eby, founder of MyChelle Dermaceuticals, was frustrated by the lack of truly natural and effective skin care products. She began making kitchen‐made skin care products with ingredients right out
of her pantry and refrigerator that would eventually lead her to a new realm of skin care that is bioactive, pure, natural and effective: MyChelle. This marked the beginning of her passion to make cleansers, peels, and masks, with the guiding principle that the ingredients should nourish and rejuvenate the skin, just as food nourishes our bodies. She proved that natural could be effective without the use of harsh or toxic chemicals, and the idea for MyChelle Dermaceuticals was born.

MyChelle.LipGloss909

MyChelle Dermaceuticals was founded on the premises that nature and science can be combined successfully to create the most effective, natural and safest skin care products possible. MyChelle is committed to designing products that are highly effective in boosting the skin’s nutrient levels and helping to fight the signs of aging while improving structural integrity and supporting the skin’s immune system. The biggest differentiator between MyChelle and other natural product companies is that MyChelle products contain the correct and clinically proven amount of natural, bioactive ingredients.

MyChelle began pure and effective, and nine years later remains pure and effective. Women and men

MyChelle is a coveted, beauty‐inspired skin care line that is a must‐have because of its effectiveness, eco‐consciousness, community involvement and cruelty free approach to creating awardwinning skin care products and cosmetics.

“I am on a mission to educate the consumer and provide them with a viable, effective, natural and
environmentally smart skin care line,” says Myra Michelle Eby, founder of MyChelle Dermaceuticals. “I
have always believed that an educated consumer is a healthier consumer.”

Myra focuses on many aspects of the company and the products: from new product development, to educating consumers, to giving back to the community. She is an active and avid board member of the Medicine Horse Program, furthering the company’s support of the non‐profit and its vision to rescue foals from the Premarin® drug industry and enhance the quality of life of adolescents through unique equine-assisted experiences.

Depth Body. Beauty from the Sea Review

November 28, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Reviews

Depth was introduced in 2008, but the idea for Depth was born a decade prior, when Tim Schaeffer and Korie Johnson met in graduate school, where they both studied to become marine biologists. Tim and Korie shared a love for the ocean and they soon found, for each other.

collage
After graduate school Korie built her career as a marine biologist, protecting the marine habitats of endangered species, while Tim went to business school and subsequently worked in the natural products industry developing personal-care products that are gentle on both people and the planet. One of the many reasons Tim created the Depth brand is his strong desire to bring the beauty, abundance and therapeutic benefits of marine botanicals to consumers through their use of Depth products.

Today, Tim and Korie remain strongly committed to preserving marine life, so a percentage of the sale of every Depth product goes to Camp SEA Lab, a non-profit camp in Monterey Bay, California that offers authentic marine experiences to underserved children, instilling in them a sense of love and respect for the sea.

Tim and Korie, who married in 2004, have two young sons, Benjamin and Calvin. When they’re not working, it’s likely you’ll find the Schaeffers on the sand at the water’s edge, appreciating the sun, sand and sea, marveling at what lives beneath the surface.

When I first opened my package from Depth, I reached right for the Depth Bay Coconut icon Hand Soap, twisted off the pump and inhaled.  Such a light and airy coconut scent.  Some get it wrong and try and make is smell like a tropical sweet drink, but Depth has it right, just balanced, earthy and sweet.  It also has a great lather, that actually cleans under my nails with out too much effort and leaves my hands clean, but not tight.  I wash my hands a lot no matter what time of year it is.  And I am planning on ordering a couple more bottles so I can have it in each room I wash up in.

Depth products contain 100% natural aroma blends, a combination of pure essential oils and what are known as “natural aromatics.” Through a simple distillation process, natural aromatics are isolated from a range of botanicals and then blended with pure essential oils to achieve fresher and more complex aroma blends, completely naturally.

All of Depth’s Products are: hair_care

I also asked to try out Depth’s Drench Hydrating Shampoo and their Immererse Daily Conditionericon.  Both have this lovely, clean scent, that is really light and sorta just smells like a sunny clean day.  No leftover rainy smells, just fresh and clean.  For being natural, it has an awesome lather, and really cleans my hair with out much scrubbing plus leaves it full of moisture but not weighed down.  Really balanced.  If there is one thing I am picky about it is hair care Depth passes my testing with flying colors.

Infused with a unique blend of sea botanicals, certified organic aloe vera, Sea Lettuce, mango butter, sea weed extracts and natural emollients, Depth Shampoos and Conditioners are ultra-hydrating, refreshing, and moisturizing. Plus with such unique ingredients they really stand out from the pack.

  • Refresh Daily Shampoo – For all hair typesYour browser may not support display of this image. . Keeps hair soft, healthy and nourished with a nutrient-rich blend of vitamins and sea botanicals
  • Drench Hydrating Shampoo – For dry and damaged hair: Gentle cleansers work to nourish and restore essential moisture, ideal for color treated hair
  • Immerse Daily Conditioner – For all hair types. Nutrient-rich to maintain healthy, beautiful hair without weighing it down
  • Submerse Deep Conditioner – For dry and damaged hair. This creamy conditioner provides deep nourishment and ultra-hydration for extra healthy hair

Misikko Hana Professional Flat Iron Review and Giveaway

November 18, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Giveaways

Hands down the BEST flat Iron I have every used!

Hands down the BEST flat Iron I have every used!

This has to be the best electric device that I use.  Hands down.  Gives my hair shine like you just can’t believe and literally takes me less then 3 minutes to do.  And I have a lot of hair.  Granted, most of it is already pretty straight, but I have some nappy waves and curls going on underneath it all!

I have another Flat Iron, that is only Ceramic COATED plates.  and believe me when I tell you this is a HUGE difference between ceramic coated and actual ceramic plates, which is what that Hana Professional Flat Iron 1.5 has.

Hana Professional Features:

  • Advanced Tourmaline Ceramic Plates for Accelerated Ion Generation and Maximum Frizz-Free, Conditioning Shine
  • Ceramic is naturally hygienic, protects color & retards fading
  • Floating 1.5” Plates Auto-Adjust To Glide Over Any Hair Texture
  • Wider plates are perfect for longer, thicker or hard to style hair types
  • Curved Plate Edges For Versatile Styling – Curl, Flip or Straighten!
  • Adjustable Temperature Dial – 5 Settings from 140-450° F for All Hair Types
  • Flash Heats in Seconds with Instant Compensation for Heat Loss
  • Ergonomic Handle Design with No-Slip Grip
  • Smooth Grooves Keep Hair Strands Separate and Snag-Free
  • Tangle-Free Salon Quality Cord Swivels 360°; Convenient Hanging Loop
  • Energy Efficient at 38 Watts
  • Independent On/Off Switch
  • Includes Luxe Heat Proof Storage Pouch, Heat Proof Silicone Mat, & Special Edition Tin Case
  • Made in Korea
  • Two Year Warranty

100% Ceramic plates

Okay some of the features that I am just jawdropped and stunned with are the curved plates.  My other flat iron (which was made by a big company and not cheap) supposedly have these too… But they don’t work.  On the Hana Professional 1.5 they do work!  Curl, wave, flip or straighten!

and the temperature settings!  I like having a choice of just how hot I need to get my hair to manipulate it!

I am also enamored with the Floating Adjustable Plates.  I have a lot of hair, but for the most part it is fine.  Which means, it is a lot easier on my to straighten a lot at a time versus little section.  If i do little sections not only will I get flyaways but my goodness it would take forever!  Which is why I stopped bothering with the other one!

And I just want to mention again, this is not ceramic coated.  No ladies (and gentlemen?) this Flat Iron is full on ceramic!  Helps prevent color fading.  SWEET!

I have never been one to fix my hair.  I love makeup and skincare, but for some reason I grew up hating to fix my hair.  I also had have a dislike of what I look like with my hair up.  So I grew up with Hair Straighteners and curling irons and lots of hair spray.  I woke up super early every day so i could fix my hair.  Now I realize it actually looks better less fixed!  (I didn’t get the nickname Prissy Krissy for nothing!)

misikkoEach Hana Professional comes with a free gift.  A heat protection pad!  I can’t tell you how many bathroom counters I have burned brown marks into in m lifetime.  Enough that I started making myself unplug the irons, instead of soley relying on turning them off.  WHICH is good for energy reduction and my counters!   The Hana also comes in a really nice tin with an extremely nice pouch, so safe keeping and safe traveling!

I personally wasn’t sure how to get the sexy waves going on in my hair. So I poked around on Youtube for a tutorial.  Well I stumbled across a Misikko video!

I figured since I needed it maybe one of you might too!? Enjoy!

Misikko wasn’t only kind to me but they want to be kind to one reader too!  They are offering up one Hana Professional Flat Iron 1.5 to a lucky winner!

To enter, visit Misikko and tell me another product there that you would really like to own.

South Of France Review and Giveaway

November 2, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Giveaways

South of France, specializes in a different kind of delicious – luxurious bath products, made with time-honored French recipes using all-natural vegetable ingredients. They never use harsh chemicals and all of their products are Sodium Laurel/ Laureth Sulfate Free, EDTA Free, Phthalate Free and Paraban Free. South of France is also 100%  Cruelty Free- we never use animal by-products or test our products on animals.

South of France’s dedication to creating quality products has made them one of the number one selling natural bars in the country today.

I am a major bar soap lover.  If you would have told me 6 years ago, that I would stop using body wash, gels and creams, I probably would have laughed and rolled my eyes.  I always felt like that was the only thing that woudl get me clean.  The problem was that, I felt I needed to be stripped of all bad and good oils to feel clean.  Well that just simply isn’t the case.  You want to leave the nourishing oils on your skin, and only clean the dirt and grime away.

almondHoneylimebasil

That is precisely what South of France Soaps do.  Even their body wash left my skin feeling clean but not tight and dry.  And with all of the scents they have, you are sure to find one  you will like.

The South of France French Milled traditional soap is 100% vegetable oil based, containing soothing oils and moisturizing Shea butter in a long lasting 8.8 oz. bar. Infused with fragrances and essential oils, these rich lathering, cruelty-free bars are produced using a traditional recipe from Provence.

I tested the Honey, and it is just as the site says.  Creamy, rich later, with just the right amount of scent.  Because this bar is made with such amazing moisturizing benefits, make sure you keep it in a soap tray, away from moisture, or you might find it melty when you return!

green-teaorange-blossom-honeyshea-butter

I also tried out their liquid hand soaps.  The South of France Liquid Soaps are a high lathering soap made with a special blend of premium vegetable oils. The soaps are kettle cooked in small batches following a traditional French recipe.

Lavender, Lemon Mint, Orange Blossom Honey, Green Tea and Shea Butter are infused with luxurious fragrances.  I in my awe over the scent of the Orange Blossom Honey.  It is the perfect blend of citrus and sweet.  I ran out of my favorite hand soap in the kitchen and this became a great replacement.  Cleans, but doesn’t leave my hands and nails extremely dried out.

acai-lotion-smacai-smallshea-butter-lotion-smshea-butter-small

I also tried out their Acai Pomegranate Body Wash and Body Lotion. South of France maintains their own special blend of premium of ingredients including all natural vegetable oils enhanced with natural anti-oxidants.

The wash left my skin nice and clean, but again, not squeaky clean. It has such an awakening scent.  It smells clean and refreshing, which is exactly what it does for the skin.  The lotion left my skin extremely moisturized and nicely scented.  I don’t like my lotions to over power with scent, and this has a great level.

South of France has TWO contests for us today.

The first:
Become a follower of South Of France on Twitter and be entered into a monthly giveaway.  The giveaway will be a selection of South of France products.

Russell Organics Review

November 2, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Reviews

Russell Organics was founded on four basic principles:CF&V logos copy

  1. to formulate the finest luxury skin care products without the use of known toxins.
  2. to formulate and craft products to Certified Cruelty Free and Certified Vegan Standards.
  3. to formulate and craft products using Organic ingredients whenever a dependable organic supplier can be sourced.
  4. to operate as a Carbon Free organization.

Partner_CarbonFree_Logo-R-2Russell Organics is committed to existing in harmony with the environment. They take every effort to reduce the carbon footprint of our everyday operations. From the reduced level, Russell Organics then partners with the Carbon Fund to purchase Carbon Off-sets for the company, which effectively makes Russell Organics a true Carbon Free organization.

But what about the beauty products?

Russell Organics is soon to be a leading luxury, organic oriented, beauty brand in the market. Carefully crafted, Russell Organics products are free of toxins and contain only the finest ingredients. Every Russell Organics product is Certified Cruelty Free and Certified Vegan.

With luxury solutions for facial care, body care, and hair care, Russell Organics has a product for everyone.

is.aspx

I had the chance to try out the Russell Organics Lemon Jojoba Body Polish.  A nice, and very gentle exfoliation for all areas of the body.  Crafted with fragrant Organic Citrus Essential Oil, Organic Lavender Essential Oil, and Organic Calendula Essential Oil it helped to shake my senses awake, and alive, while gently removing the dead skin cells ever so gently.  Replacing lost moisture with Aloe Vera and jojoba.

Refreshing, exfoliating, moisturizing and detoxifying, all in one great body polish. Packed with natural ingredients, specially formulated to re-energize your skin.  As most of you know, I break out.  My back and chest included.  Most body scrubs do not take this into consideration, and fill their moisturizers with pore clogging ingredients.  Russell Organic’s Body Polish allows me to re-energize my chest and back, and rid my skin of all the skin dulling dead skin cells with out causing breakouts.

At $36 for 4oz, this scrub will last a long time, if used on moist skin. I do suggest turning off the shower, as I do with all scrubs, to not only save water, but to save product too!

Oh Clarisonic How I Love Thee! Giveaway

November 2, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Giveaways

You might remember I did a review and giveaway for the 2 Speed Clarisonic a few months back.

Well I was offered the chance either of reviewing the new Clarisonic Plus with Body Brush, or giving it away.  Since my old school Classic still works great, I wanted to give you readers the chance to win this bad boy!

plusKitIncludesMED2

The Clarisonic Plus icon includes :

  • Three speeds for the face
  • Body mode for cleansing areas of the body needing extra care and attention.
  • Body Brush
  • 3 Cleansers plus the Body Refiner cleanser

Great benefits for the body

plusWithSpotBrushLeanWetMED

  • Fewer dry patches
  • Gentle exfoliation for softer, smoother skin
  • Firmer skin with improved texture
  • Great prep before applying self tanner

Sonic Skin Cleansing System

  • Sonic Skin Cleansing System
  • 6 times more makeup removal
  • Leaves skin feeling and looking younger and smoother
  • Cleanses so well that products absorb better
  • Gentle enough for twice daily use
  • Helps reduce oily areas, dry skin patches and blemishes
  • Helps reduce the appearance of visible pores
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

I love love love my Clarisonic.  I hardly ever feel the need to use an additional exfoliator.  I feel like it gives me a more even exfoliation then any cleanser, or scrub can do.

I only use the sensitive skin brushhead on my Clarisonic, I don’t feel a need a to use anything stronger.  I do wish i had the body piece too, only because I do get occasional breakouts on my chest and back, but the heads do run out.  If I used the same head on my body as I do on my face, it wouldn’t last very long at all.  And they are pretty expensive to replace, at $25.   You only need to replace every 3-4 months, I would imagine I would need a new one every 1-2 months if I used the facial brush on my body.

So yes, you heard me, I have a giveaway for you!  One Prissy Green reader will win a Clarisonic Plus!

June Jacobs Spa Lips Review

October 27, 2009 by Karissa  
Filed under Info You Want to Know

I have admitted to you all before that I am lip balm, lip quencher- name it anything you want junkie.

My lips are addicted.  As soon as I saw this Lip Kit from June Jacobs, I just had to have it!

June Jacobs Lip Kit

Paraben and preservative free, This is a three step kit.  Fantastic for us addicts.  Helps to contour the lips, fight wrinkles, reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles and to keep lip stick from feather (with multiple uses.)

  • Lip Scrub: This emollient sugar-based lip exfoliation treatment with nourishing oils and age-fighting anti-oxidants gently sweeps away dead skin cells leaving lips silky smooth. Directions: Apply to lips using a light circular motion and rinse off with warm water.
  • Lip Masque: This luxurious masque, enriched with soothing botanicals and age-fighting anti-oxidants, gently soothes, hydrates and protects the lips, leaving them ultra-smooth. Directions: Apply to lips and leave on for two to three minutes and rinse off with warm water.
  • Lip Renewal: A lip treatment infused with shea butter, grapefruit and vitamin E that provides instant and continual relief to dry, dehydrated, peeling lips, increases hydration and volume, and reduces the appearance of lip furrows. Revitalizing formula naturally enhances lip structure, improves contour, adds volume and defines the lipline. Active oligopeptide delivers fuller lips by naturally stimulating collagen production.

Again, here I am, trying to pick a favorite out of three winners!  The Lip Scrub is great for days that maybe you slept too long?  or maybe you had lipstick on all day and it has hijacked your soft lips and replaced them with sandpaper?  The scrub is soft, and sweet and removed all the dead skin sitting on my lips with great ease!

The Lip Masque is fun, just for no other reason then having a mask on your lips! Really seems to do a task beyond a normal lip treatment duty!

and the Lip Renewal. This is my new clear lip gloss.  It hydrates, is not at all sticky, and once the bulk of it has worn away, my lips still feel conditioned.  No bad taste either!

June Jacobs has a whole lot of everything for you if you are looking for luxury, spa and beauty!  And well, aren’t we all?

June Jacobs, a world renowned spa visionary for over thirty years, has redefined luxury spa. The couture was inspired by a void within the spa market. June Jacobs Spa Collection based on high concentrations of carefully selected botanical and plant extracts, recognized for their soothing and restorative powers, the June Jacobs Spa Collection marries age defying science and luxury. June’s belief in both paraben and preservative free treatments combined with hydrosol technology, which distills active ingredients to its purest form, delivers unparalleled results.

The June Jacobs Spa Collection for face and body addresses all skin concerns and consists of approximately 100 professional and retail products. Available only to the most discerning clientele and can be found at the most prestigious resorts and spas worldwide.
