Greer’s Pick of the Week

Luscious Lip Enhancers by Velana K
Velana K gloss formula is unique. It is packed with vitamins A and C and contains a golden seaweed mixture which moisturizes and protects against photo aging. The marine based filling spheres are infused throughout the gloss, promoting collagen production. Shea butter also helps protect against dehydration and other climatic influences.

OH, BABY! WHAT FOOD!

Pomme Bebe, a new organic baby food store in Newport Beach that opens today, is offering Greer's OC subscribers $15 off a purchase of $50 or more through November (cannot be combined with any other offer).

Besides mama's milk, it doesn't get any better for babies than the freshly made food at Pomme Bebe.

The store's grand opening today includes a Halloween party with arts and crafts, fun prizes and organic treats served all day.

Owner Svetla Kibota offers a nutritious alternative to store-bought jar foods: fresh organic meals for babies and toddlers. Kibota wants babies to love and develop a taste for nutritious fresh foods from their first bite.

And what better way than by tasting recipes developed by award-winning chef Laurent Brazier who creates puréed single ingredient foods, blends, and, for toddlers, slightly more complex tastes.

Pomme Bebe peels, steams, purees meals each day in its kitchen, and even offers samples at its contemporary Tasting Bar. Purchase meals in the store or online for overnight delivery. Open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. 2043 Westcliff Drive in Newport Beach. 949.200.7430.
