The Truth About Your Heart...

Ok by now we know about my love of all things beauty but another passion of mine is encouraging women to be proactive about their health. Making sure you are practicing safe sex as well as regular AIDS testing is a priority however another health concern that is overlooked by women is heart health.

I found out about the Heart Truth campaign a few years ago when the gorgeous dresses from the fashion show were on display at Union Station. The cause continues to grow with backing from such celebrities as Toni Braxton who herself is a heart disease survivor.

You can show your support by wearing red on Friday February 6th for National Wear Red Day. Learn more and how you can get more people involved by getting a toolkit. In addition to wearing red clothing you can support the cause by purchasing the Heart Truth Lipgloss Trio from Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

The Heart Truth Lipgloss Trio ($40 and free shipping with the code HEART9) was created by Bobbi Brown to raise awareness about the cause, so show your support and be beautiful both inside and out!

The Truth About Helping Others

I learned of a wonderful opportunity for women that I wanted to share with you in between my product reviews. Sheya of Naturally Nurturing Beauty shared information about The Amber Grant. If you are looking to start a small business or improve upon your venture then I believe this is an excellent opportunity. The grants range in awards of $500-$1000 and although it may seem a small amount to some, every little bit helps when someone is trying to achieve a dream.

Thanks Sheya and cant wait to try your products!
