For your mom, granny and favorite aunt, Elizabeth Grant has powerful anti-aging skincare. The Collagen Re-inforce Snow Algae Neck Cream ($150.00 / 200 ml) is designed to improve the appearance of the décolleté area by making skin appear dense, lifted, tight and plump. With repeated use lines and wrinkles are less visible and the contours of the neck and chest begin to look smooth, hydrated and youthful. Another great product is the Collagen Re-inforce Snow Algae Intensive Face Lift ($140.00).  It works by slowing down visible signs of aging, strengthening tissue, softening, toning, moisturizing and energizing dull, saggy skin.

I put Eos Balms in everyone’s stocking to help keep my family’s lips supple and healthy all winter. The new holiday flavors include Whipped Vanilla Frosting, Cranberry Fizz, Champagne Pop, Cherry and Bright and my favorite – Peppermint Cream.
