Hot In The Hive: UVSunSense Sun Monitor Wristbands

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageTime flies when you’re having fun in the sun. One minute you’re happy as a clam, playing volleyball or reading a book on the beach, the next you’re stomping down the aisles at Walgreens in search of aloe for that gnarly sunburn you’ve earned. You already know that too much sun exposure is harmful, and you’ve had enough peeling shoulders in your time to recognize the importance of sunscreen, but even the most seasoned of sun-baskers have a hard time keeping of track of their last sunscreen application or even knowing exactly when it’s time to call it a day and take cover. Enter UVSunSense sun monitoring wristbands. Worn on your wrist in addition to a nice slathering of SPF 15 or higher, the band’s surface changes color to alert you when it’s time to either slop on some more sunscreen or find the nearest shady spot ASAP. Sure, they might be a pretty dorky-looking excuse for a bangle, but they look a heck of a lot cooler than a blistering lobster complexion!

Price: $6.89 for a pack of 7
Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the UVSunSense Wristbands to the Hive.

For those of us like Kathleen Kelly of “You’ve Got Mail” who love the smell of freshly sharpened pencils, back to school season has an air of excitement all its own beginning with the scavenger hunt-like school supply lists.

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageIt’s a pretty well known fact that we all tend to gain a few pounds during the holidays. The endless holiday parties, Christmas cookies and spiked apple cider are just too hard to resist for most of us. But with all the parties, it’s actually the time of year I want to look my best in my little black cocktail dresses. One way to curb a nagging sweet tooth? Sugary sweet beauty products that have all the holiday cheer and feel without all the consequences. Turn your pre-party bubble bath in a delicious creme brulee soak with Laura Mercier’s honey bath. Light some sweet scented candles all over the house to give off the warm holiday feel of hot buttered rum and cookies baking. A chocolate or pumpkin spiced lip balm will keep you satisfied with high shine, great taste and perfectly kissable lips for those under-the-mistletoe smooches. Check out the SLIDESHOW for more sweet treats that will keep you looking hot in your body-conscious frocks!

Hot In The Hive: Jane Iredale chocohoLICKS Lip Glosses

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageMy first foray into lip products was way back when I young enough to reach for the Bonne Bell Lip Smackers. My favorite flavor to this day is Strawberry Kiwi! But somewhere between the start of teenage angst and graduating from college, I’ve since graduated to more “mature” lip products. I still miss the flavored lip glosses of my youth though. As luck would have it, Jane Iredale has a lip product that combines 100% all natural ingredients with flavors my sweet tooth loves. The box comes with 4 lip glosses that will send any chocolate lover straight to heaven. Flavors include: Truffle, Chocolate Orange, Strawberry Cream, and Caramel. They even come packaged like a box of chocolates. Gift them to your best friends or save them for yourself. Just don’t take a spoon to them!

Price: $44
Who Found It: facadeindreams was first to add the Jane Iredale chocohoLICKS Lip Glosses to the Hive.
