Benefits of 100% unrefined Shea Butter

p1260058

I ordered the 10g Shea Butter sample from Yours Essentially recently because my son had some rashes around his mouth due to an outbreak from a food allergy. Because it is 100% unrefined, I didn’t have to worry about artificial fragrances or additional preservatives and was free to apply it to his face liberally. In fact, I learnt that Shea Butter is edible although I don’t think my son wants to eat it.

$88 free shipping promo from Benefit

012609_chineseny_1

I was very surprised to see this offer from Benefit Cosmetics this week especially because this promo is coming out from the US. But I won’t be surprised if they were to reduce the minimum purchase amount going forward considering the state of the global economy.

Anyway, it’s a good opportunity to grab some beauty stash if you’re eyeing something from the brand. Offer is good till 2 Feb 2009. On top of this, you’ll get a free full-sized BADgal blue mascara with any purchase of US$35. No promo code is necessary as the item will be automatically shipped with the order once the amount is hit.

Must you match your nail polish colors?

p1270016

I’m not really a waitress.  That’s the color of this OPI nail polish that I frequently use on my toenails.  It’s a vibrant rich red color, and very befitting as an auspicious color for Chinese New Year.

Since I had some interesting comments from my post about matching bra and panty, I want to find out from you ladies if it’s necessary to wear matching colors on your fingernails and toenails.  Do you ever wear different colors?
