Fabulous Over Forty – Where Beauty Is Ageless

I did not even know that The Plaza Beauty by Warren Tricomi existed until my recent trip to New York.   What a great gem of a place this is!  All the lines that are carried here are hand selected for beauty and home.

A few of the lines there are joining in on the Breast Cancer Awareness Month for raising funds and awareness to various foundations. 

Lucia Tristao created this headband with a subtle pink ribbon and rhinestones and 20% of the sales of this headband will go to Breast Cancer Awareness programs.   Getting rid of this horrible disease is close to her heart as she lost her father and two aunts from breast cancer.

RevitaLash, the eyelash stengthening formula is offering a complimentary mascara and a pink ribbon cosmetic bag.  A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this will go to Breast Cancer Awareness programs including Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Be sure to check out The Plaza Beauty for some exciting lines and raise funds while doing so.

ShoeDazzle will be donating 10% of sales from this hot pink number called the “Stephanie” pump to Susan G Komen for the Cure.    The “Stephanie” is named after a ShoeDazzle employee who has a rare form of breast cancer.

Have you heard of ShoeDazzle before?   If not, and you want some fabulous shoes be sure to check it out.   Founded by Kim Kardashian and other celebrity stylists, ShoeDazzle will select 5 pair of shoes from your style profile for you to choose one pair all for only $39.00  a month.  Be sure to check out their site for more info.

Darphin, a luxurious French skin care company, will donate  a whopping $20 from the sale of each of the Arovita C Energic Firming Cream during the month of October to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

I’ve personally used this cream and it is a wonderful, lightly rich cream that goes on smoothly without stickiness and it absorbs quickly.   With ingredients like Peptides,Vitamin C & E and other skin enhancing componenets it aids in the loss of elasticity on the face and neck.  $80.

Darphin is a line that is used at many spas around the world and some of the best facials I’ve received  have used the Darphin products.  Darphin is also available at Bergdorf Goodman, Space NK, and Bluemercury as well as www.darphin.com

Aveda is partaking in the fundraising for Breast Cancer Research Foundation by creating this special limited-edition size of their very popular Hand Relief. 

They will donate $4 from each sale to the BCRF, with a maximum donation of $300,000, to help advance the understanding the environmental impact on breast cancer.    This lotion has a special size – a 5 oz size which is a 19% increase at a 7% savings, so not only does the organization benefit you do too!
