Butter Elixir Now at Beauty Cafe

 
When a Beauty Cafe customer reaches out to me I listen... when one of them suggests a product line I get giddy!! Recently one of our dearest customers recommended a line that she had recently come across and said it was a Beauty Cafe must-have!! Was she ever right!! Thank you Linda xoxo

Introducing Butter Elixir... inspired and created by 3 yogi's from NY! (hey you gotta love a good story!) They wanted something simple, clean and natural to moisturize their skin after yoga practice. So they utilized their backgrounds in high end fashion and design to create the aesthetic and vision of Butter Elixir.

Voila... the 100% pure Butter Eixir is made with natural oils (including my favorite Argan Oil) originally native to the Middle east and commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine. 

Packed with essential fatty aids, it has astonishing soothing, conditioning and anti-aging properties to keep your skin and hair glowing, nourished and revitalized. 

Butter Elixir uses a special blend of lavender and chamomile oils for a relaxing and delicious scent. The fragrance is sophisticated, yet familiar and unique.

I'm using it on my surgery scar twice a day and on my cuticles/nails. 

Butter Elixir Body Oil is available at Beauty Cafe... oh and be sure to check out the Butter Face Elixir and Lip Balm while you're here.

Royal Apothic Imperial Vanilla Mini Eau de Parfum

Love, love, love the new Imperial Vanilla Mini Eau de Parfum from Royal Apothic!!


Although first introduced in Europe in the 16th century, it was not favoured in perfume until 1807 when a nobleman named Charles Greville successfully flowered a Vanilla Orchid plant in Paddington. While the Honorable Mr. Greville's cuttings went on to supply the botanic gardens of Paris and Antwerp, his appreciation and love of this mysterious species inspired Royal Apothic's newest scent, Imperial Vanilla.

A warm, woody Vanilla with notes of Bergamot, Violette, Frangipani, and Ylang-Ylang over a base of Fresh Vanilla Bean, Ambergris, Vetiver, Musk and Vanilla Absolute.

My discovery of Aura Candles falls under my "things happen for a reason" belief...

I just knew they were the perfect fit for Beauty Cafe and I know you'll love them too!!

Aura Candles come in a 6oz travel tin and have a 30 hour burn time. Travel candles are actually perfect for not only popping in your suitcase but for having around the tub and outdoors so you never have to worry about breaking glass!!

Skin of Norway from Geir Ness creator of Laila Perfume

 

Introducing Skin of Norway from Geir Ness,
the creator of Laila and Geir Fragrance's.

Born in Oslo, Norway, Geir Ness is the very picture of perfect health with his vibrant skin, fit body and endless natural energy. He attributes his vitality to a healthy diet, balanced lifestyle, and early training in natural herbal remedies abundant in his homeland. Several years ago, the student-turned-entrepreneur launched Norway's first designer women's fragrance, Laila, inspired by scents from his native Norway, and followed with a successful men's fragrance and body care line. Now, with a grueling travel schedule of personal appearances and media interviews 300 days a year that would exhaust even a marathon runner, Geir still makes time to exercise and care for his skin. He is constantly asked, "How do you keep your skin looking so clear, fresh and toned?" 

 

Simply put, his philosophy is to always PROTECT, HYDRATE, ENERGIZE and RESTORE (to reverse damage). Now Geir is finally sharing the secrets behind his unique, natural approach to skin maintenance with his global audience.



A Pharmacopeia of Natural Ingredients Found in Skin of Norway

Seeking native herbs like those harvested from the hillsides near his home, Geir harnessed the power of locally-sourced antioxidants, hydrators, mineral chrono-energizers and cell-repairing agents. These natural ingredients were specially selected to protect skin from damage, make it resistant to premature aging and restore skin's normal function even in hostile environments. Geir has created veritable cell-life cocktails designed to maintain healthy skin.
