Delightful Diffuser
01.06.12
We recently came across a home fragrance diffuser like we’ve never seen before. We’re giving Michael Aram’s orchid or lotus blossum diffuser our vote for the most attractive diffuser we’ve ever seen. The striking piece has a hammered nickel plate base and frosted glass and the scents are heavenly. The fragrance fills the air and adds a nice artistic touch to your décor.
Pick one up at Bloomingdale’s Home Store at Fashion Island in Newport Beach for $99. For more information, call 949.729.6600, or visit bloomingdales.com.

Irving Rice Make-Up Mirror
Irving Rice mirrors are the finest in the wold. Manufactured in Germany by the most premier glass-makers, the lenses are optically corrected and distortion free. All mirror surfaces are silver-baked quality glass. This same glass is used in microscopes and telescopes. The mirrors reverse from regular magnification to either a 3x, 5x or 7x magnification strength. Precise magnification is the result of the combination of distortion-free optical glass and the unique method of bending the master lens to obtain a perfectly centered focal point in the finished mirror. All metal parts used in the fabrication of Irving Rice mirros are also manufactured in Germany and are solid brass. The mirrors are finished in a polished brass, polished chrome, brushed brass or brushed nickel.
“I can't imagine doing my own make-up without a make-up mirror that lights up and magnifies. It makes a huge difference not only in a clean, precise application, it also makes it more time efficient because you are sitting down comfortable and not leaning into the bathroom mirror.”

Tip of the Month
"Take time to slow down and meditate during this busy holiday season. Taking 5-10 minutes to breathe deeply really improves not only your mood, but also relaxes your face and mind. It also opens your heart which enhances your natural beauty."
Happy Holidays!
