Holiday Gifting Roundup & a GIVEAWAY!

That's right.  Today is my very first giveaway on Nest Your Best and I could not be more excited!  Does this mean I'm a real blogger now?!?

The holidays are fast approaching and we all have a lot to do, so I thought it would be fun to host a little "Holiday Gifting Roundup".  Over the next few days, I'll be spotlighting some amazing women and their amazing businesses.  We'll have skincare, gourmet foods, great bags, and more.  What's even better, every single one of the women I'm featuring is offering a giveaway to one of my readers!!  That's right!  Get some things checked off your gift list and win something awesome for you!

First up in our holiday idea bonanza is my awesome friend Lauren at Rodan + Fields.  Lauren and I have been friends for years and she is truly beautiful inside and out.  After years of playing soccer outside in the sun, she was ready to up her skincare routine.  And, boy, did it pay off!  She loved what she saw so much, she decided to become a R + F consultant!

Rodan + Fields offers all kinds of products for every skincare concern you may have.  Lauren was sweet enough to send me a mini facial kit and I have LOVED everything I have tried.  Here are just a few of the awesome products with some descriptions from the lovely Lauren herself:

*Enhancements Micro-Dermabrasion Paste*:

This stuff is like crack--you can't get enough of it! You use it 3 times a
week in place of your cleanser. It is an oil-free sugar and salt exfoliant
that renews your skin's surface and helps increase cell turnover. It
leaves your face feeling baby soft and reveals your natural complexion.

*Anti-Age Regimen*: 

This 3 step regimen has proven peptide technology that visibly firms skin
and reduces the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores. I've
been using this for a few months now and my skin is smoother, less lined
(yes, even 30 year olds can start to see those lines appear), and my
complexion is more even. This is one of our top selling skin care regimens.

*Reverse Regimen*: 

This 4 step regimen is what sold me on Rodan + Fields. I had a lot of sun damage, brown spots, freckling, from all those years playing soccer outside
(not to mention a tanning bed habit in high school--a little embarrassing
to admit now :). This regimen exfoliates, lightens, brightens, and
protects your skin for a more even tone and texture. After using it for
just a week, I could notice a huge difference in my skin. It was brighter
and smoother, younger looking, and even my husband (who doesn't usually notice
these kind of things) asked what I had been doing to my face. Anyone with
sun damage, dullness, or brown spots is a perfect candidate for this
treatment.

*Anti-Age Night Renewing Serum*:

This stuff is like liquid gold. It comes in small capsules that contain a potent blend of peptides and retinol to reduce the appearance of wrinkles
and visibly increase skin firmness. It has a patented time-release
technology that increases your skin's receptivity throughout the night. It
was the Editors' Choice in Harper's Bazaar Magazine. Also, we are running
a holiday special with this product now through December 31st. Any
purchase of $185 or more will receive a free 30 day supply of the Night
Renewing Serum (a value of $44). 

*Anti-Age Multi-Function Eye Cream: *

I love this product and use it everyday, day and night. We call it the
"triple threat" because it tackles crow's feet, puffiness, and dark circles under your eyes. It has optical diffusers that instantly brighten the eye
area (you can also store it in your fridge and put it on after a late night
and it helps with puffiness and swelling). It is water-based and is an
ideal formula for treating the delicate skin around your eyes.

*Enhancements Body Micro-Dermabrasion: *

This product is loved not only by me, but by my hubby too. It comes in a
bar and you can put it on in the shower, or before you shave (my husband uses it
before he shaves and doesn't get the bumps or in-grown hairs that he used
to). It is a powerful micro-dermabrasion that exfoliates, cleanses, and conditions skin in one step. I have noticed when I use it before shaving,
my leg hairs take 3 days longer to grow back. It is also great to use
before applying a sun-less tanner (we sell an amazing foaming sun-less
tanner, too :). 



Wow!  Does anyone feel like washing their face right now and slathering it with awesomeness??  I sure do.  Those are just a few of the terrific things Rodan + Fields has available.  Please check out Lauren's site for more gift ideas, or for a little something for yourself!
