Febreze #12Stinks of Christmas

FEBREZE LAUNCHES 

“THE #12STINKS OF CHRISTMAS,” A 

WITTY PARODY OF A CLASSIC HOLIDAY TUNE

Wait, what do you mean the holidays stink? Well they don't, no..they kind of do, but you'll see what we mean in a bit. Don’t take it wrong, the holidays are a really wonderful time of year: family, friends, parties and gifts. But, while we see images of sugar plums and perfect holiday décor, the truth is the holidays are filled with a bevy of holiday stinks.

Last week I attended an event at Lightbox with Febreze, Jane Lynch and Matthew Morrison, for the premiere of their holiday music video "The 12 Days of Christmas", starring the hilarious duo, Jane Lynch and Matthew Morrison (complete with ugly Christmas sweaters) and a special cameo appearance by the world-famous, four-legged social media star @ItsDougThePug. Check out the video below and see exactly why we say that the holidays stink:

Yum holiday treats!

So, why do the holiday's stink? Well you have the endless cycle of guests, whether it’s 11 guests using one bathroom, eight uncles belching after a big meal or your three musty stockings pulled down after a year in the attic, it can be one of the most odorous times of year. “Sure, it’s always great to see family; it’s great to walk into a kitchen and smell a pie in the oven,” said actress Jane Lynch. “But when the turkey’s burning and your bathroom is seeing a lot of foot traffic from party guests, it hits you: the holidays stink! And, Febreze is a great solution to eliminate odors and stay guest ready.”.....

NEW Invisibobble

INVISIBOBBLE AROUND 

THE WORLD COLLECTION

Here is a hair accessory that I cannot live without (seriously, you will always find one on my wrist or in my bathroom. ICYMI, check out my previous review and event recap here). I was stoked when reps for invisibobble sent me the new Around The world Collection. Why? Because this traceless hair tie is perfect for all hair types, even my curls. They won't tangle, rip your hair, or pop/break, as other hair ties do. FACT: I have a lot of hair that is guilty for the death of countless hair ties! Each package contains 3 invisibobbles for $8.

Just in time for the holidays, get ready to hop on board, as invisibobble travels the globe with the Around the World Collection. What is it? A limited edition collection featuring the classic invisibobble in four new shades – Letter from Grey, Burgundy Dream, Universal Blue and Silky Season. invisibobble is the only traceless hair ring that does not kink or crease hair. You can purchase them at Urban Outfitters, Ulta & Nordstrom. 

Designed by ‘invisibobblistas’ themselves, the talented and highly artistic winners of the invisibobble Around the World design contest are from Austria, Belarus, the Netherlands and Portugal. Each winner picked an invisibobble color and custom designed their own unique package that will add flare to any beauty cabinet.

M∙A∙C #VIVAGLAM World AIDS Day

M∙A∙C COSMETICS & 

THE M∙A∙C AIDS FUND

CELEBRATE $400 MILLION MILESTONE

At M·A·C, every day is World AIDS Day, and this year it’s particularly special as we announce the M·A·C AIDS Fund has raised $400 million through the sale of #VIVAGLAM lip products! 

Did You Know:
The M·A·C AIDS Fund was created in 1994 to raise money and awareness for HIV/AIDS when the pandemic was dramatically affecting the world

Since 1994, every single penny of the selling price of a #VIVAGLAM lip product goes directly to the M·A·C AIDS Fund to help people around the world affected by HIV/AIDS.

The M·A·C AIDS Fund is the largest corporate one non-pharmaceutical donor in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Ariana Grande is the 24th #VIVAGLAM 2016 spokesperson.

Each year 19,000 M·A·C artists take off their brush belts, roll up their sleeves and volunteer at HIV/AIDS organizations around the world.

One #VIVAGLAM lip product can:

• Purchase 254 condoms to prevent the transmission of HIV
• Provide fresh fruit, vegetables, and grocery essentials to a mother and child affected by HIV for a full week
• Provide 32 Safer Sex Kits, which include condoms, lubricant and instructions
• Provide a clean, safe place to sleep for two nights for one resident living with HIV/AIDS
• Buy 10 individually tailored, nutritious meals for a person affected by HIV/AIDS
• Purchase one rapid oral HIV test
• Provide crisis counseling to a person living with AIDS who is also struggling with drug addiction, mental illness and homelessness
• Provide a new job interview shirt and tie for one resident at an HIV/AIDS housing organization
• Buy a pair of school shoes for a child orphaned by AIDS
• Test 14 pregnant mothers for HIV

Superstar Miley Cyrus makes a lot of noise as our 2015 spokesperson, with two surefire hits in one exclusive set: a super-sexy hot pink Lipstick and matching Lipglass filled with sparkling pearl shimmer. This holiday collection also features three of our most iconic #VIVAGLAM shades in one sleek little compact.

Every cent of the selling price of #VIVAGLAM products goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS.
