In all the 30 years we have been using and carrying the Aveda line of products, I have collected a group of favorites. One of my all time favorites is the Hand Relief Hand Lotion. I love it! Unlike a lot of other lotions, I love the consistency of the lotion. It’s extremely moisturizing, but doesn’t leave you with an oily feel. Not to mention a clean and fresh aroma.
Leave it Aveda to make a good thing even better. Aveda just released their newest product, Hand Relief Night Renewal Serum. It’s designed to work together with the Hand Relief Lotion.
This is a restorative nighttime treatment serum that improves the texture and tone of your hands while you sleep. Aveda list some of the benefits of the serum as:
“Visibly reduces the dark spots | Moisturizers and plumps to smooth fine lines | Andiroba oil protects skin’s natural moisture barrier | moisturizers and plumps to smooth fine lines ”
— aveda
After looking over the benefits and ingredients we referred to our beyond talented Medical Aesthetician, Angela Vance for her opinion. She made a list of key ingredients that backed up the benefits that Aveda had mentioned.
Antioxidants- vitamins C and A for anti-aging and also helps with firming the skin, and aids in dark spots
Licorice and Molasses extract- aids in skin lightening for dark or brown spots
Natural Plant Extract- for increasing moisture
*Lipids-to prevent moisture loss
Thanks to Angela for breaking it down for us.
Another added plus to the serum, it’s aroma. Like the Hand Relief Lotion, it has a fresh citrus aroma, featuring organic oranges, lavandin and eucalyptus. Your hands will smell fantastic, in addition to being smooth and silky.
So all this being said...... I have a new favorite to add to my list. Be kind to your hands!

For the past couple of months, I have been scouring over all the latest fashion magazines patiently waiting for a look at the new fall trends. Of course, with a high interest in the latest hair and make-up trends. About two weeks ago, I was thrilled when my wait was finally over, the best part I could see it in person, and not rely on the pages of a magazine. Aveda's Autumn/ Winter 2014 Make-up Collection arrived! We love it!
The collection is called Romantic Grandeur. Aveda description is "dream like colors recast the splendor of eras past and reveal a romantic vintage qualities". Our definition, soft, beautiful, bold and rich shades. It's the perfect pallet for autumn.
There are a few standout features, that for us make this one of the best collections in years.
Eye colors- the eye colors can all be stand-out shades on their own but, they are also extremely complementary of each other. The Ivory Lotus along with the Winter Lilac are staples for highlighting the whole eye or simply on the brow bone. Aubergine is great for a darker contouring shade, following up with any of the other shades as an accent shade.
Lip color- Red lip colors are stunning but, a little hard to find the right shade. This collection's red is just right. Goji Berry! Not too blue and not too orange. Lip Glaze- Aveda has given us 2 new lip glazes. Rose Blush and Mango-steen. Both can stand on their own as a quick color to your lips or to tip off your favorite lip color.
Please stop by the salon to see the new collection in person
