Choose an eye cream that is light in texture, and apply sparingly.
When you use “heavy” eye creams with heavy or thick texture, they tend to make the eyes sag with time.
If you tried an eye cream you absolutely love and have seen great results, let us know about it !
Stay Pampered!

Beauty is not only external, but internal. In fact when we beautify our soul and spirit, we radiate in a way that not even the most expensive skincare products can compare to!
Our thoughts have enormous effects on our physical body, and in all areas of our lives.
Here is one of my favorite quotes by Dr. Pat Allen of the WANT INSTITUTE (www.dr.patallen.com)
“Be aware of your thoughts because they become words.
Be aware of your words because they become habits.
Be aware of your habits because they become your character.
Be aware of your character because it becomes your destiny
At the bank
At the doctor
In relationships
And in every aspect of your lifeâ€
Dr. Pat Allen
THE AMAZINGLY CALMING EFFECT OF UNCOMFORTABLE HIGH HEELS.
By Jessikah Kollatou
Do you want to LOOK good or FEEL good?
Yes, I know, almost 99.9 and a half percent of the female population on the planet want BOTH!
But what if you can’t have both? If you could only choose one or the other, which one would it be?
Admit it! At some point in your life, you have worn those cute, sexy and incredibly uncomfortable shoes on a hot date, or at the office, or out with your girlfriends! Busted!!! 
lol
And even though you could hardly breathe from the suffocation your poor little feet had to endure, you kept smiling through your teeth, maybe had an extra shot of something alcoholic to get through it with your dignity intact.
But that’s besides the point here.
How can it be possible to feel a calming effect when wearing uncomfortable high heels?
Can high heels reduce stress?
Think about it for a minute. When your shoes are uncomfortable, you simply CAN NOT Â run around like a chicken with its head cut off to do all your grocery shopping, print those photocopies for the office, go to the bank,pick up the clothes from the dry cleaners and drop the kids off to dance , martial arts or music class, all in one hour!! Something you normally do wearing those comfy flip flops, sport shoes, or convenient low heels.
I don’t care about being right , but you KNOW I am ! lol
So inevitably, if you don’t have an alternative (or refuse to choose one), you are forced to slow down your crazy hectic pace.
You walk slower, while trying to breathe and smile and look normal, and before you know it, your rapid breathing has slowed down too. And since the breath controls the mind, so has your mind slowed down the processing of a gazillion thoughts at the speed of a nanosecond.
Suddenly you notice that its not raining today and the sun is out, you remember to say hi to your next door neighbor-the one you usually rush by focused on getting your to do list done.
You hear some bird chirping on a nearby tree, oh yes, the tree looks so green and beautiful !
You are walking a little more gracefully hoping no one will notice how uncomfortable you feel, and standing a little taller to take off the pressure from being distributed only on your lower body, and you look a little slimmer too because your spine is now elongated.
Eventually you get home and take the shoes off with a sigh of relief, plunge on the couch for a moment (which you normally never have-the moment, not the couch ) , and suddenly realize you are not as stressed as when you normally run around for your errands.
Oh, and you have miraculously done all your errands, in that one sloooow hour! Â

Hello my fellow TPL-ers !
The other day a friend shared with me two great relaxation music cds and I want to share them with you.
1. Inner Voices , by R. Carlos Nakai . This is Native American Flute music, very relaxing and nurturing.
2. Feng Shui : Music for Balanced Living , by Daniel May. This cd has the elements of metal,wood,water,fire,earth,wind,chi, and Yin&Yang.
I loved playing these cds today and lighting nice aromatherapy candles. Great for a relaxing day, and helped me get work done in a non stressful manner.
I assume you can find the cds online, and hope soon I will be able to put cds on our site so its easier for you to buy them if you want.
Stay Pampered!

So its Saturday night , no excuse not to go out and party or go to the movies or do something fun.
But tonight my body is telling me it wants to relax and chill . At home. Â Alone. And i AM having FUN!
This morning i really enjoyed just cleaning up my kitchen, listening to smooth jazz on 94.7 The Wave radio station.Had a relaxing breakfast, washed yesterday’s dishes from the dinner we had with my girlfriends at my place, while dancing to the grooves of smooth jazz saxophone player Euge Groove .
Later I had a light lunch, then a nap. It’s amazing what an afternoon nap can do for your skin,energy levels and mood! Then I caught up on some emails in the afternoon, and browsed a bit on the net, still in my robe and black silk pjs , matched with a black t-shirt that has the word “DIVA” written in red glitter ! Â Who ever said being in your pjs all day on a Saturday has to be boring ? ! Â
Later i will go up to my room, light up my one of my favorite candles, or put some aromatherapy drops in my diffuser, turn the tv on or the radio, and do something ive been putting off for months : Clean up my closet !
It feels so great to declutter, purging and making space in your closet, or any area for that matter, can be fun, and leave you feeling  mentally and emotionally lighter too. Â
The best part is that I am doing this in a TPL (The Pampered Life) way, meaning, there is no rush, no stress to accomplish cleaning up ALL of my (4 ) closets. I will just do a little now, until i find or make time for it again. I know that even a little purging can make a big difference.
It would be great to get it all done now, but i also want to make some time for a nice warm bath with essential oils, then do a face mask and sleep early so i can enjoy a wonderful Sunday with my friends tomorrow.
Monday is back to work day, but today  is MY PAMPER DAY !   !
Much love to you and
Stay Pampered ! Â
