NUTRITIONISTE ULTRA-LIFT @GarnierCAN Transformer Anti-Aging Skin Corrector
My mom was so nice to test out a new Garnier product for me called the Ultra Lift Transformer.
She says, “it is not too oily, nor creamy. It has a trace of scent makes her feel good. Her skin immediately felt smooth and it is not sticky at all”
My mom has beautiful skin and even in her early 60’s she hardly needs makeup, foundation to look absolutely glamorous. This moisturizer comes out white but adapts to your skin tone. You can use it for daily transformation. Experience younger-looking skin from the 1st contact. Upon application, skin is more even, luminous, and fine lines look reduced. Our auto-adjusting formula, with Pro-Retinol and micro-pigments, works over time so that wrinkles look reduced, skin feels firmer, and younger-looking. I hope my skin look great like my mom and grandma when I get to their age.
If you are looking for something lighter than a BB cream and less than foundation, give this new Garnier product a try!

Featured:
Hugo Red by Hugo Boss is a Oriental Spicy fragrance for men. This is a new fragrance. Hugo Red was launched in 2013. Top notes are metallic notes, grapefruit, pink pepper and galbanum; middle notes are rhubarb, cedar, pineapple and metallic notes; base notes are tonka bean and amber.
“An innovative scent requires an innovative source of inspiration and HUGO Red is a great example of this. We wanted to create a perfume for men that captures the idea of pushing boundaries and to achieve this we found an unexpected parallel with the behavior of cold and hot metal. The result of our creation is a contemporary blend of contrasting ingredients, full of cold and hot tension that stimulates the wearer and leaves him feeling energized and ready to challenge himself.” – Will Andrews, P&G Fragrance Creation Team and unique talent, making him a natural fit with the HUGO brand and the HUGO Red concept. In his own words, “I think creativity and pushing boundaries go hand in hand, and originality comes from individuals who are willing to take chances, to bet on themselves”.
