Brittney and I on Black Friday
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brittney was born and raised in San Diego, CA. A former Marketing Guru, she has recently been focusing her energy on educating the world, one person at a time, regarding safer personal care products with Arbonne International. She has a deep seeded passion for helping people and when she discovered Arbonne, she knew this was the business for her. By simply educating people about Arbonne’s safe and beneficial products, she has built a successful shopping business that has allowed her to leave corporate America and forge a new adventure where time and money are hers for the choosing.

Arbonne has been offering phenomenal products since 1980. At Arbonne, much like at A Rendez-Vous with Style, we pride ourselves on helping people, especially women, fully realize their true and natural beauty by healing, repairing and nourishing the body’s largest organ – skin. Our skin is our fastest delivery system; what you put on your skin is detected in all major organs in less than 30 seconds. Don’t believe me? Put a piece of garlic between your toes and you’ll find you can taste it in your mouth only 30 minutes later! With that being said, it’s important that as consumers, you understand the products that you are using and what exactly it is that you are submitting to your organs.
In the US, less than 20 ingredients are banned from personal care products. In Europe, however, over 1,100 are banned! That’s quite a difference! The European standards for personal care products are much, much higher than here in the US. That’s why ALL of Arbonne’s products are formulated in Switzerland and held to this standard.
Did you also know that most products here in the US contain a cheap and deadly “filler” product called mineral oil? Click here to read more about mineral oil and its many names. Mineral oil is not only a by-product of petroleum oil (gasoline!) but it is a known carcinogen and the #2 cause of aging (next to the sun as #1). It serves as a liquid seran wrap on your skin – blocking your skin from releasing toxins and keeping it from absorbing the nutrients it needs from the environment. Next time you have 20 minutes, print out the list of mineral oil names and check out all the products in your bathroom. My guess is you’ll find the majority of your products with this harmful ingredient in them. And worse yet, many of the products on the market for children have this deadly ingredient in them as well.
At Arbonne, we do things differently. Our products contain NO mineral oil or parabens. ALL of our products actually deliver the promised results as well – and if you aren't happy with ANY product for ANY reason, return it within 45 days for your FULL money back!

Hi,
I love your blog and was wondering if you would take a look at our shop on Etsy and consider writing about us on your blog. We make Drink Coasters from original 45 rpm records. They are gift quality and quite unique. (green too)
Many Thanks,
Lorie
