Can you believe Thanksgiving  is only 3 weeks away? With the holidays quickly approaching many people can feel their stress levels rising. You may not be able to avoid family, airport or long car rides over the holiday season, but here are some simple ideas that can help fight holiday stress

Give Yourself a Gift: Hurry and take advantage of all the great holiday offers out there. So many skincare/cosmetic brands create special holiday sets perfect for gift giving. Who says you can only buy them for a friend or family member? Treat yourself to special savings during the holiday season. Here are a few of my favorite kits.

gloMinerals – gloLuxe Beauty Collection (15 piece kit)  – This kit is a great value and has everything you’ll need for a complete makeup makeover. Plus, the case is a perfect travel companion.

Kevyn Aucoin – The Making Faces Collection Vol.1  – This kit is perfect for the makeup novice. It comes with all the basics and step-by-step instructions. Score!

Tarte Cosmetics – Sunglosses Set  – The denim case is absolutely adorable and can fit easily into any purse. The lipgloss shades are perfect alone or can be layered to create different colors.

 At Home Stress Relief:  One of my favorite ways to fight off stress is by taking a nice long hot bath.  Adding any of these bath products will enhance your bathing experience by helping you to relax and relieve stress.  The following fabulous bath products are all available on glow.com.

Me Bath – Bath Ice Cream (Café con Leche is my fave!)

Pevonia Botanice – Anti-Stress Bath & Shower Gel

Dermalogica – Stress Relief Treatment Oil

 Pamper Yourself:  Go ahead and splurge! Book a facial, massage or manicure – I give you permission or check out a local spa academy, you can get trained estheticians who are back in school to further their education.   You’ll be in better spirits and be a better hostess or guest because of it.
