Fresh Brown Sugar Body Polish
Rated #1 Body Exfoliator by InStyle Magazine. This product smells as good as it works. A good body scrub is a necessity prior to self tanning.

St. Tropez 'Everyday' Gradual Tan for Body 
Named best Self-Tanner by In Style and Allure.
Nordstrom's

Kate Somerville ExfoliKate
A straight from the clinic complexion can be yours with this innovative and intensive exfoliating treatment. Kate is the facialist to the stars, and I have had the honor to have been treated to her expertise.  Her products work and are used by many a celeb.  I love this scrub.
Kate Somerville

Spanx 'Boostie-Yay' Slimming Bodysuit 
I think even the slimmest of celebs wear Spanx! This one piece offers the strongest level of support offered. I would not suggest wearing this with a tight fitting gown. It may show a panty line. 
Nordstrom's

Nars Illuminators
This product is like having your own personal lighting team. I have tried them all. The result is a dewy incandescence (no glitter). Use it as a highlighter or all over the face. Lovely on shoulders too. Love it!
Barney's New York

Anastasia of Beverly Hills Eyebrow Kit

Straight from the best in brows, Anastasia, this kit will transform your eyes with five easy pieces. It's an editor's pick!

Effective - Affordable - and voted #1 System in a survey by Total Beauty. The Red Carpet demands pearly whites when those cameras flash!

Yoshii Towels
I heard that Brittany Spears requests 200 towels daily in her Las Vegas suite. Why shouldn't we all have the best for our own delicate skin? These are great. The story of how they are made is convincing to me. I want one in every color-every day! Read about them at
Beauty Habit

Phyto Phyto Volume Actif
Hair can not be flat on the Red Carpet! One must have lift at the roots, especially to hide the tracks of extensions. This is the best I have tried.
Sephora

Fashion Forms makes every type of disposable and multi-use bra one could ever need. Stylists pack one of each of this clever line of cleavage boosters.

Every spa experience needs a facial mask. Most of those walking the Red Carpet have had this beauty treatment hours before the event. Voted "Best Mask" by Allure Magazine, click to see if will work for your skin type. Warning: It's pricey!

Mally 24/7 Professional 17pc Gel Nail Polish System
