Have you heard of the Beauty Rebellion Project yet? If you are into cruelty-free beauty you may already be a part of this movement! What is the Beauty Rebellion movement and who’s leading it, you might ask? The Beauty Rebellion Project is a group of stylish, young conscious consumers who understand that true beauty is cruelty-free. They rebel against the traditional ideas of skin care, hair care and cosmetics and have made it their mission to spread the word about
new and established cruelty-free beauty brands through fun events and hip venues throughout Los Angeles.

Keeping with a cruelty-free theme, those who attend one of these hip events can expect to enjoy cocktails, vegetarian cuisine, goody bags with cruelty-free products and of course amazing support from the droves of beautiful people who support this amazing movement! The first rebellion event will be in August 2010. For the upcoming event, some of the MANY cruelty-free sponsors include: Aveda, Dermalogica, DermaDoctor, Earth Natural Essentials, InStyle, Manic Panic, Mountain Girl Soap, Naturopathica, Sibu Beauty and Urban Decay. Urban Decay is sponsoring a full-sized vegan palette for every goody bag! Many thanks to Jen Mathews (founder of the popular beauty blog, My Beauty Bunny) and The Beauty Rebellion project for bringing attention to this cause.
So, do you want to go to a cruelty-free beauty party in Los Angeles? Sign up for their mailing list and JOIN THE REBELLION!

Summer sun demands our skin to be in tip top shape from head to toe, to help us pull off shorter hemlines and brighter hues. These summer lotions are perfect to add to any gal’s hydration routine.

Elizabeth Grant Vitamin C Hand & Nail Cream
Hands can show the evidence of aging and sun damage just as much as frown lines and crow’s feet. This non-greasy and quick absorbing hand and nail cream delivers an intense dose of Vitamin C to lighten hyper-pigmentation and increase collagen production. Contains Torricelumn and three other major hydration ingredients to boost moisture levels all day long and strengthen the nails.
Vitamin C Hand & Nail Cream eliminates dryness and brightens and protects the skin giving your hands a more youthful appearance.
Price: $25

Similar strand stunters don’t even come close to the powerful potency of Completely Smooth. Its strong formulation includes Capislow™, a plant extract that is scientifically proven to visibly lessen hair texture, density, length and growth.
Completely Smooth is the little beauty ally you’ve been waiting for. Being smooth has never been so simple. Completely Smooth Body $42 and Completely Smooth Face $28: is available at all completely bare locations and via completelybare.com

Bliss FatGirlScrub
Bliss FatGirlScrub
promotes circulation through exfoliation and massage. It helps reduce accumulation of stagnant fluids that contribute to lumps and bumps all while sloughing off dead skin cells that may be blocking the penetration of slimming solutions applied after.
I recommend using it with the Bliss Slimulator
to achieve faster, more visible results. I love this scrub and use it weekly on my thighs. Since becoming pregnant again, I have found it also helps increase circulation on my lower legs too.
Price: $38.00
