Marvelous Girl Has Moved!

Posts Tagged ‘giveaway

Life management expert and bestselling author Brook Noel says historically more than 80% of New Year’s resolutions are abandoned by late February because most people view resolutions as another pressure in an already pressure-filled life.

For that reason, Noel was generous enough to give one lucky Marvelous Girl reader a copy of her book The Make Today Matter Makeover! The first person to email marvelousgirls@gmail.com about the giveaway will win Noel’s book.

Whether you want to curb your caffeine cravings, stop procrastinating or really reduce stress in 2010, Brook Noel is hosting a FREE 5-day Facebook Workshop (Jan. 11-15) based on her popular online course Transforming Resolutions Into Reality.

Aging not only occurs in the skin, but also in the hair, eyelashes and eyebrows.  Not only can the hair on your head become gray and thin, but aging plays a key factor in slowing down the renewal process of eyelashes – and the last thing a woman needs to worry about is the loss of her flirty lashes.

Both eyelashes and eyebrows may turn gray and become sparse as follicles become dormant and melanin is produced by follicles. These aging factors – in addition to outside aggressors like mascara, eyelash curlers, make-up removers, medications, etc., which all ravage lashes over the years – mean that lashes need an extra boost.

Nutritional supplements, vitamins and other products will not stop the aging of lashes and brows, but an eyelash conditioner that strengthens lashes will help lashes stay on the lid longer, allowing them to grow.  Try a product like neuLash eyelash conditioner, which promotes healthy, natural lashes in as little as two weeks.  This is a favorite among celebrities because it’s paraben-free and includes essential proteins, peptides, vitamins and moisturizers.  It really takes years off your eye area.  To see before and after pictures, click here.

neuLash is available for $150 at www.neuLash.com, Saks Fifth Avenue and top spas nationwide.
