Tea Tree Oil Products Part II: Body Care

BellaSugar — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 14:00:11 PDT

Welcome back to my three-part series about tea tree oil products. Today I've chosen three sensational body care products that help to soothe, soften and treat the skin. I think once you start exploring this excellent essential oil you're going to find yourself constantly turning to it for beauty and health-related solutions.

Amber Products Co. Wax Cream ($13.95) is a gentle body wax that contains high amounts of tea tree oil to result in a creamier feel that leaves little residue on the skin. It's great for removing short, coarse hairs and is recommended for use at a medium to high temperature. It is available in 14 oz and 16 oz sizes.

Tea Tree Oil Deodorant Stick by Queen Helene ($3.59) is a natural deodorant that helps neutralize unpleasant odors. Although it's gentle, it really does fight off bacteria as well as perspiration effectively.

Readers Name Cheaper Items in Costco

We know now to stay clear of fresh produce at Costco and instead reach for the frozen products when shopping at the discount retailer. However, there are plenty of other items that are great deals at Costco. Here's what readers have to say:

"I shop at Costco for a few things: shampoo/conditioner, tampons (seriously, 8 bucks for a box of 88?! Target is twice that for half the amount!), and liquor. At my Costco, you don't have to be a member to buy the booze, and it's super cheap!" - JanetG0307
"Liquor is much cheaper at Costco! Same for dog food, toilet paper, and books!" - iamdaphneblake
"Costco has cheaper bulk items and some excellent sales especially on toilet paper, paper towels, dvd's, beer, spices, etc. The best part is the coupons!" - Lmendel530
"After going to Costco once, I did the math and figured out that my local grocery store has the same per unit price. Considering it's quite a drive to get to Costco I'm sticking with shopping at WinCo." - amber512

Oh Man: A Juicy New Fragrance For Gents

BellaSugar — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 16:00:47 PST

Juicy Couture is gearing up to launch a gentleman's fragrance range of products called Dirty English. From what I've read, the scent seems like it's for the stylish bad-boy type. (The inspiration partly came from co-founder Gela Nash-Taylor's husband John Taylor of Duran Duran.)

I haven't smelled this scent yet, but it has a long list of notes: blue cypress, bergamot, peppered mandarin, marjoram, black leather, sandalwood, cedarwood, vetiver roots, agar, ebony wood, black moss absolute, amber musk, caraway, and cardamom pods.

Dirty English is available now at Bloomingdale's and it will be available in other department stores in mid April. The product range includes everything from eau de toilette ($52-$70) to hair pomade ($18). To find out what Nash-Taylor and Skaist-Levy told WWD about the sexy scent,
