LPN’s Holiday Gift Guide Part IV: For the Green Beauty’s Stocking + GIVEAWAYS

A million and one things could go on this list, but I thought I’d narrow it down to some faves and some new products that I would like to find in my stocking this holiday season.

As the LPN gift guide continues, so too does the gift of giving. LPN is super excited to be partnering up with Pureskin.no in Norway and The Choosy Chick internationally for not one, but TWO giveaways!

In celebration of the holidays, LPN is giving away Pursoma Ocean Potion + Earth Bound Mask AND a Tsi-la Organic Eau de Parfum Oil!!!

Pursoma Bath Salts + GIVEAWAY with Pureskin.no

Today I’m super excited to be partnering up with Pureskin.no for an AWESOME giveaway (check out the details below).

You’ve heard about Pursoma on LPN before here, and their products are still some of my favourites. Baths are revolutionized with Pursoma. The Ocean Potion is made from pure, raw, vegan ingredients including: sea salt which stimulates circulation as you soak and eliminating toxins on a cellular level while Atlantic kelp awakens the lymphatic system and adds essential minerals and fatty acids to nourish the skin. Potent algae assists in ridding the body from heavy metals and radioactive materials, helping to reverse the damage of cell phones, laptops and the daily stressors of modern life and it is an ideal remedy bath to help get over jet lag (or a long night out), to bring relief from chronic fatigue or to cleanse yourself from electro-magnetic overload.

18Needless to say I’m going to be hopping into one of these baths tonight, as my jet lag is ferocious (I just got back home to Canada and am trying to switch over from a 9 hour time difference)!

The Earth Bound Mask softens the skin, unclogs pores and treats dry skin. Illite clay aids in pulling out toxins and can provide accelerated detoxification. It is also known for its intense cleansing properties that make it a great soothing agent for irritated and dry skin. Raw clay can help ease inflamed skin.

Ok, so now to the important stuff, HOW DO I GET MY HANDS ON THESE FOR FREE?

Tsi-La Organic Eau de Parfum Oil + GLOBAL GIVEAWAY with The Choosy Chick

RMS Beauty’s Living Luminizer

You’ve seen this over and over on these pages. It’s one product I can’t ever see myself without. I won’t dig into all the glorious details here, because you can read about it here, and here and here. That being said, if you’re a good friend, this will end up in your bestie’s stocking this year.

The living luminizer comes in one shade, so you can’t go wrong. It enhances the skin’s natural youthfulness without being sticky or glittery; in fact, its more translucent with a satin-pearl finish.

Apply it on the bridge of the nose, the cupid’s bow on the lip the cheek bones and under the eyebrows.
