TIME TO LATHER UP
We're as skeptical as anyone on miracle creams, but at the same times, we'll try anything and everything in hopes that it will make us look a little better and a little younger. And we've lathered up and rubbed on the following three skin care lines available online and wanted to share them with you.
Arbonne, from a Swiss-based skin care company, is botanically based and formulated without petrochemical and animal byproducts. It's big on anti-aging elements, vitamins and antioxidants. The line, which we love, comes with a 45-day money back guarantee.
The products are available online through Dorie Wishmyer, an Arbonne consultant in Newport Beach. And she's offering a special for Greer's OC fans. With any purchase, mention Greer's OC and you'll receive a free gift.
Wishmyer says Arbonne works wonders for sun-damaged skin and that you can feel and see a difference in within three days. 949.275.4185. www.doriedoesit.myarbonne.com
Kerstin Florian is a locally based luxury spa skincare line found at high-end salons, international spas, and online. It offers a progressive collection of European facial, body, and bath products and sun treatments. And it's offering Greer's OC subscribers 20% off products bought online through December. (Just enter the promo code holiday7 at in the checkout box to receive the discount.) The line includes thermal mineral water, mud, algae, herbal extracts and essential oils. Swedish-born Kerstin Florian, with more than 40 years of experience in the spa industry, founded the family-run company based in Lake Forest in 1978. www.kerstinflorianusa.com
Linacare, a Vancouver-based skin care line, was developed by a Harvard trained research scientist who developed moisturizing creams for his patients who suffered from severely dry skin. Over a 20-year period, Dr. Henry Fung found a way to allow moisture to penetrate the deepest layers of skin, keeping skin feeling better and more youthful looking. His developments led to Linacare, which offers fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-greasy creams for the face and body. Linacare offers Greer's OC subscribers free shipping this week on orders over $50. Just enter code "greersoc." www.linacare.com
