Favorites Fridays: SWANK Soap

Happy Favorite’s Friday to you! I want to address something before telling you what my new favorite is. I want you to know that I only want to write about products that I truly love and use. That is why, as of lately, I haven’t posted many Favorites blogs. I don’t just want to pick a new product that maybe I have tried once or picked something because it’s new on the market. I only write a Favorite’s Friday blog when I have something that I 100% love and recommend!

Anyway, let’s get to the good stuff. This week I bring you a fabulous bar of soap that is handmade with natural ingredients. It has a simple and refreshing scent of wild flower that isn’t too strong and there are no harmful chemicals in them. My favorite, this week, is SWANK Soap from the Swank Atlanta company! 

These soaps are handmade and hand stamped with the SWANK logo and are just so wonderful. I am not the biggest fan of soaps that leave your hands feeling squeaky clean that almost feel dry after. This soap does not do that. It leaves your skin clean without that awful feeling on your hands. My daughter and I have even been using it on our faces. Her skin is pretty sensitive and she absolutely loves her SWANK soap. 

There are no sodium laurel sulfates or parabens and just a short list of natural ingredients that make this soap just wonderful. It’s also made right here in the USA which I love! This is a family recipe that has been handed down for generations and now SWANK ATLANTA is bringing it right to you. 

You can order SWANK soap on their website. 1 (4oz) bar of soap for $4.50 or 5 (4oz) bars of soap for only $20! They make wonderful gifts for friends, family and swag bags!

Favorites Fridays: Giorgio Armani's Eye Tint

Well, I must say, I didnt think I would be excited about an eyeshadow, but this one is definitely blog worthy. It comes in a container similar to a lip gloss or mascara, there are about 12 different colors to choose from, and it is this week’s favorites friday product. Giorgio Armani’s brand new Eye Tint is a must-have, long-lasting eyeshadow. 

Its innovative formula transforms from liquid to solid and instantly adheres to your eyelid. It will provide you with 16 hours of smudge free, crease free gorgeous look. 

You can use this fabulous Eye Tint as an eyeshadow or even an eyeliner and you can use it for day or night. It can easily be used to make a smokey eye, or use the Rose Ashes to cover your lid for a fresh look. 

The innovative formula debuted at the Giogio Armani Womenswear Spring/Summer 2015 show and is sure to be a huge hit. 

You can purchase this fabulous Eye Tint at your local Sephora. Ask someone there to show you all of the colors. I opted for the Rose Ashes and love it during the day and can smoke it out for the evening. Remember if you don’t like it or anything else at Sephora, take it back & pick out something you like! You should most definitely give this one a try! 

Here is Sephora’s suggested use of Giogio Armani’s Eye Tint - 

Suggested Usage: 
- Use the fine tip to apply Eye Tint to line eyes, or to create more precise looks.  
- Using the flat side, apply eye shadow all over the lid, blending with an eye shadow brush or fingers to achieved your desired look.
