How to Get Your Holiday Glow On

Confession - I can't seem to kick my "Gossip Girl" habit.  While catching up on this insufferable car wreck of a series, I sat shaming myself for tolerating this garbage, yet I couldn't take my eyes off the plump, polished pout of these 20-somethings (pretending to be teenagers).

Watching these starlets spew such atrocious dialogue, it seems like a waste of velvety lip products.  


To get this special effect at home begin with L'Occitane Shea Butter Lip Balm.  Before you can build a perfect pucker, you need to repair and nourish dry lips.  Begin with a moisturizing balm formulated with shea butter for instant hydration.

This year, L'Occitane is introducing four new holiday gift sets inspired by the scents of the season.  The collections began in a small village in the south of France, at a fragrance distillery, Confiserie Florian - famous for transforming fruits and flowers into sweet, mouth-watering delights, you are sure to find these kits magnifique.
