Rusk Sensories Wellness
Here's another green option for your hair care regime. Rusk Sensories Wellness provides hair care solutions that are free of harsh chemicals and are made with all-natural ingredients like mango butter and silk. Rusk offers four products: the shampoo, conditioner, repair drops and hydrating treatment.
The shampoo and conditioner are made with organic materials and are paraben, sulfate and gluten free. Harsh chemicals usually strip our strands of valuable nutrients during the cleansing process. You may find that frequent shampooing can dullen your hair color, as well. Rusk shampoo and conditioner hydrate and clean hair and scalp while leaving nutrients in, where they belong. These are made with organic, Tahitian Oil for added moisture.
The Repair Drops is made with lavender, chamomile, sage, keratin and aloe vera. These natural ingredients strengthen your locks and protect them. This product can be used on dry hair for shine or on wet hair in preparation for a blowout. The repair oil is also perfect for a scalp massage or as a leave-in treatment.
The Hydrating treatment, also made with Tahitian Oil, is great for coarse, dry hair that's been through damage. This treatment can be massaged into the hair and left on for 5 minutes. When you rinse it, you'll notice that strands are silkier, softer and more moisturized.
The Rusk Sensories Wellness line is available at www.rusk1.com.

Free Endearment
Free Endearment started a few years ago from a broken heart and a renewed sense of purpose. Free Endearment is a collection of handbags and accessories that are designed in lush, bold colors, like brown,mauve, emerald green and orange. Most of the bags are in a textured leather made to look like animal skin. This adds a luxurious flare to popular styles and silhouettes. For instance, the Jessica handbag is shaped like your average day bag but it's done in calm gray and beige with big pleating at the front. If you're looking for more of a pop, it also comes in red, black and Arizona, which is an orangey purple blend of shades that is perfect with your LBD. The Suitcase Bag is in the design of a duffel bag. No-one would dare confuse this bag with a plain sports bag, though, with its lush material that is sure to stand out when traveling. The Julie is available in sold colors and is designed with an overlapping panel in the front. Its slightly slouchy and fits snugly under the arm. Free Endearment's clutches are just as beautiful. Available in the same colors and textures as the other bags, these can be used as wallets and can be tossed into a larger bag. They work equally well, though, as independent clutches.

Sneak Peek: Cover Girl
Major Sneak Peek! Covergirl is launching the New Blast Collection at the end of this year and you can preview the items online before it hits stores! The LashBlast Length Mascara, the ShineBlast Lip Gloss and the Smoky Shadowblast Eye Color are the holiday makeup companions that you absolutely cannot live without. These can complete a holiday party look with just a touch of blush. You may have seen the LashBlast Length Mascara in stores already. This mascara promises daring heights for your lashes.
The Smoky Shadowblast Eye Color is a double-wanded smoky eye solution. On one end, you have the lighter color for highlighting and on the other end you have the darker tone for creating that sexy shadow. I got one in a neutral color but there are six colors available. The texture of this eye shadow is creamy, so you can blend blend blend with that pinky finger. How do you do it? You just cover the entire lid in the light shade and use the angled end of the darker shade to apply along your crease. I also start light in the corner of my eyes and go darker towards the outer ends. This makes eyes appear bigger, if that's the look you're going for. At $7.49, you can afford to get a few colors and try them out.
The ShineBlast Lip Gloss is the finishing touch for this look. It contains the patented ShineSculpt applicator that is made to precisely apply lip gloss to your lips. Available in 16 shades, ShineBlast promises 4x more shine than bare lips, without that icky sticky feeling. Also costing $7.49, this lip gloss promises to be a step above the rest.
