SlamPost : Balsamo Argan Oil Lip Balm from Italy

Argan Oil.
I will rave about the wonders of argan oil for you hair in another post and the famous Josie Maran cosmetic company uses it as a base for all their natural products that sell for a fortune in Sephora, but this just rocks for both winter dry lips and sun dried lips, plus as an everyday conditioning balm and wrinkle softener around the mouth..

Don't be scared of the price, it lasts, it's super high quality and pure, plus it supports a good cause.



The precious argan oil, rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, has a rare and totally natural anti-aging effect on the skin. Berber women gather kernels, gently roast them and extract the oil. Balsamo balms help support the Argan Oil Women's Cooperative Fair Trade of Morocco.


Three flavour fragrances:
Black Currant extract (ribes nigerum seed oil) is a source of natural fruit extract and promotes skin cell growth.
Honeysuckle extract (caprifolium oil) is a superior healthy cleaner and purifier of the skin.
Rosehip extract (rosa canina fruit extract) is high in vitamin C (antioxidant and healing agent), used for hundreds of years as a natural healing moisturizer.

Glam Junkies love all pretty things. BloemBox Review.

Yes, we do. It's not confined to makeup, shoes, purses, hair stuff, clothes and well, you get the picture.... we like anything that's cute, pretty, sparkly, etc.

These are my new favorite things for spring (other than fashion). BloemBox Luxury Boxed Seeds, Flowers and Vegetables Garden in a gift box. I have this one below (Humming Bird Habitat Mixed Flowers) and just adore it !












First of all the little box with the flowers and in this case, hummingbird, on top is reason enough to buy it (it'a about 5 inches tall and 3.5 inches across) and just display it.. mine's right here on my desk hutch and it's just pretty, cheerful and makes me smile, but what a gorgeous gift too ! Beyond PRETTY !

But here's the thing, in these gorgeous packages are BloemBox premium flower or vegetable seeds. Seeds are channeled between sheets of biodegradable tissue paper that can be cut-to-size and planted in an outdoor patio container, raised bed or prepared garden bed. The plantable tissue paper holds the seeds in place and makes planting easy. Simply unroll, place in a shallow furrow in the soil and cover with ¼” to ½” potting soil. When the seeds sprout, the tissue paper completely biodegrades into the soil. Thin seedlings for vigorous growth and bloom. Unplanted seeds remain viable up to two years if kept in a dry, cool, consistent temperature location.


So it really is a GARDEN inside ! You can plant these in pots if you have a small balcony, deck or yard, or in the garden if you have the room.





They also have Veges, single flower types, edible flowers, gift tins and, as shown above, the MOST gorgeous Organic Fragrant Sachets in the same type of gorgeous gift box (perfect for the anti-gardener). 
The seed boxes have a cute little gift card attached, inside there are other goodies, including instructions and in the case of a mixed garden, like min, individual flower ribbons and descriptions.

The best part ? They're ridiculously inexpensive for the gorgeous things they are. Perfect easter or spring gfts and don't forget to treat yourself.
Touch of Europe sell these online (and ship all over the world) or in their Atlanta, Georgia store at 1765 Roswell Road Marietta, GA 30062 and you get Free Shipping on all orders over $50
