get that weekend glow.

I love the weekend. In fact, I pretty much work for the weekend, just like everybody. [insert cheesy 80's song here]

Anyways, lately I've been really trying to enjoy my weekends to the fullest. I've even developed some self-pampering weekend rituals that help to awaken my senses and put me in total weekend mode.

After I take a shower, I love to indulge in some Benefit's Maybe Baby body lotion. It envelopes me like the gentle kiss of satin and is infused with a shimmer so subtle that it gives me skin a very natural glow. And plus...it smells incredible.



To top it off, I like to add a dusting of Benefit's Kitten body shimmer. I dust the powder puff across my neck and shoulders and arms, and the golden glow makes me feel radiant. The scent is soft and delicate, like a rose splashed with morning dew.



Whether psychological or not, this simple weekend beauty routine switches me out of my work-week mode and into one that is ready to relax and enjoy myself. It might not seem like much, but it sure does the trick for me!

What's your weekend ritual? (Ok I feel like this question is totally cheese, and very kaboodle-esque, lol! But seriously, if you have a weekend ritual that you enjoy...I'd love to hear it. :P)

OOOh that would be something I would want to do everyday. I love to shimmer. Well I like to get up that Saturday morning and go sit on our back porch sitting in the early sun, watching the dogs play and just love knowing that I have no where to go, on my own time. I like to take a bubble bath, play buddha bar music and soak with a mask on and some cucumber eye pads on Friday Nights to wash away the week too.=)
