How to Turn Bath time from Humdrum to Hammam!



I am very big on pampering myself with bath products. It seems like no matter how stressful the day, there is nothing like a hot bath to literally wash all my troubles right down the drain. Nothing could be closer to the truth than when taking a Hammam. For those of you that have never heard the term before, a "Hammam" is a Moroccan cleansing ritual, which in America translates to a very hot bath to really relax you and open up your pores. It's also the name of the gift set that was given to me to review by Zakia of Morocco.


The benefits of visiting a hammam, sauna or steam room.

Physical and emotional detox. Reduce stress, anxiety and allow deep relaxation.
Beautifying the body and face. Exfoliate dead skin from your body, unclog pores while eliminating toxins from the skin and
Fight acne. Regulate skin oil secretions to prevent acne and help heal scars and reduce redness.
Skin nourishing and rehydration. Provides essential vitamins and minerals.
Anti-aging. Allow your inner organs to breathe. Helps toning, firming the skin while improving elasticity.
Decrease muscle tension. It sooth muscle pain and rheumatism.
Better sleep. Helps rejuvenate your body while sleeping.
Boost the immune system. Activate the blood circulation.
Body and mind connection. Have more energy and feel more balance.
Feel beautiful. Feeling fresh and revitalized.


The Moroccan Hammam treatment is a body and soul relaxation journey that can have multiple variants, but will always consist of a black soap cleansing, skin exfoliation with a kessa mitt, mineralized rhassoul clay mask and complete rehydration of the skin with argon oil.

This ritual bath session left my body and my hair (yes, you can use the clay mask for your hair to detoxify and remove product buildup!) feeling soft and hydrated, like nothing I've ever experienced.
The kit includes: 100% pure, organic Argan Oil,(not shown) Moroccan Black Soap, Atlas Mountain Lava Clay Face and Body Mask and Moroccan Kessa Exfoliating Glove. 

One lucky reader, will take home the entire set!

Time for Me

I’ve been purchasing makeup tools for my personal use lately, my kit is stocked so now it’s time to take care of me! Being that I’m getting older and spend about 80 percent of my life with my face in my phone, I thought a good magnifying mirror was the way to go.  My latest purchase was a Trifold Table Makeup Mirror  here’s why; it’s got 4 different magnifications 10x/3x/2x/1x, (so I can see EVERYTHING even without my glasses on, it folds up for easy travel, and rotates 180 degrees, and has 21 LED lights powered by a usb cord which is included or 4 AA batteries (for on the go makeup).  While I like the ability to see all my flaws in different magnifications, (lol) the one drawback for me were the LED lights which I didn’t feel put out enough to actually illuminate the face and I noticed that I kept turning the mirror towards the window for a natural light source. All in all , I like the mirror and think it’s a great value for the price, I just wish the ...

The long awaited post about THE MAKEUP SHOW !

I know, I know,..... it's been forever since my last post, and I could make excuses and say " a cross country move, a breakup, another move, (not necessarily in that order)...sometimes life gets in the way"..... but truth be told, I got sooooo much loot at the makeup show that I wanted to be able to actually use it, and not just on myself, but on my clients, so that when I spoke to you about it, I'd actually have something to say. So without further adieu, I give you ..... The Makeup Show LA Bloggger Bag There was so much in this "goodie bag" that I almost don't know where to start.  I have a few favorites that I could go on and on about so I'll leave those for last.
