Introducing “The Glow Girl Certified” Best in Clean Beauty

Say hello to “Glow Girl Certified” clean beauty (and wellness)! I created this Best in Clean Beauty list for you as a result of all the requests that have come in asking for my favorite product picks to be housed in one place. These tried and true selections have been thoroughly tested by me personally and help me to look and feel my best. #10yearsyounger. I will keep adding new, highly curated products to the list that I can advocate for, and will update it monthly so you can stay informed of my latest finds. I am so excited to share this information with you, and I hope you find it helpful!

In curating the selection for my Top 10 Mother’s Day gift guide I also came across BOXFOX - the ultimate suite of build your own gift boxes that each come with a handwritten note to help share the love! Choose your box color, your items, your card and add to cart! They also offer pre-built options for more ideas!

1. OnlyRoses: The Infinte Rose Plaza and Infinite Rose Ebony are the perfect gesture of love from The OnlyRoses boutique in Beverly Hills. OnlyRoses specializes in the World’s finest fresh-cut roses, and preserved Infinite Roses® - real roses that last several years without water. Disruptors in luxury gifting, creating a new category with a distinct style and positioning. With its uniquely simplistic, fashionable and innovative design approach to high-end floral, the brand has elevated a rose from a flower to a luxury gift and the result is simply stunning. The go-to floral gift solution for the entertainment industry and countless celebrities, when last February, OnlyRoses supplied and installed 40,000 of the scarlet red Infinite Roses for the 91st Academy Awards/Oscar’s stage.

Use special code LOVEMOM to get 10% OFF your order! This is valid to use for any products bought online at www.only-roses.com or in-store. Not combinable with any other offers. Order deadline for nationwide Mother’s Day delivery is Wed, May 8th.

2. Giving Beads Glow Bracelet: This beautiful bracelet was created in loving memory of my mother Marlene Russo, who lost her battle with Pancreatic Cancer. I collaborated with @laurelandbleaujewelry to design this give-back bracelet with my fave word GLOW and choose rose quartz beads for the Mothers Day. Rose quartz is a stone of the heart and the crystal of unconditional love. It carries a feminine energy of compassion, peace, healing and comfort. I hope you will consider buying a bracelet for yourself or a special Glow Girl Mom in your life! Go to www.laurenandbleau.com to order a bracelet-it retails for $90 and $45 from each sale goes directly to the @HirshbergFoundation, an important charity to me and my family.

3. Herbivore Soaking Salts: Available in Calm or Detox Herbivore Botanicals’s formula contains Pacific sea salts, which are extracted and solar dried from the saline and mineral-rich waters of the Pacific ocean, and are nutrient rich and extremely fine. The Calm Bath Salts contain ylang-ylang essential oil, which is extremely effective in maintaining moisture and oil balance of the skin to keep it looking hydrated, smooth and young; and vanilla oil, which soothes the body, has a relaxing and calming effect on the brain and nerves and provides relief from anxiety, anger and restlessness.

4. Barbara Sturm’s Glow Essential Kit: I love the Glow Essential Set which contains a Cleanser, Super Anti-Aging Serum, Facial Scrub, Face Cream Women, Glow Drop and Face Mask. The perfect introduction to this buzz-worthy luxury skincare and wellness brand. “World-class skincare yields maximum results with a minimum number of products” – this is the concept behind Dr. Barbara Sturm’s nourishing formulas. Based on a thorough medical understanding of cells and anti-aging, her products protect, strengthen and detoxify without overburdening the skin and are gentle enough for sensitive complexions.

5. Personalized Waffle Weave Robe: This superabsorbent Bamboo Waffle Weave Robe by Williams Sonoma blends luxurious cotton and fine bamboo fibres for sublimely soft texture that lasts wash after wash. Terry woven on the inside, the cozy robe is ideal for wrapping up at home anytime of the day particularly after a long soak. For a limited time only this robe is on special from $99 to $68.97 and you can monogram it for that added personal touch.

6. Bib&Sola Carafe: Bib&Sola is contemporary and stylish glassware that offers a conscious alternative to plastic. Striking in their simplicity and elegance, each piece of glassware is hand blown to create these collectibles. Created by Kira Heuer, Bib&Sola (Latin for drink and comfort), it all began with the notion to dig deeper when addressing the power of influence, consumerism, fashion, art, beauty and water. I love this Carafe as it is the perfect table centerpiece (photo on Instagram ). Available in several color accent options.

Use special code glowgirl10 for a 10% discount on your order!

7. R0AM: I adore the casual chic style of these Faux fur ROAM Cloud’s which are padded and lined in cotton fleece. Created for and inspired by those who truly live dynamically, integrating sport, travel, health, fashion and adventure into a lifestyle of wellness and fun! The proceeds from each purchase goes to the R0AM Foundation which provides at risk children an opportunity to explore and spend time in nature. I have them in the TITAN style also obsessed with the LEO!

8. Rose Quartz Gua Sha: Another gorgeous product by Miranda Kerr’s Kora Organics clean beauty line, the Rose Quartz Heart Facial Gua Sha is a beautifying stone specially designed to enhance your natural beauty by supporting natural circulation to de-puff and visibly sculpt your face by helping to ease tension, stress, and anxiety.I like to use together with Olie Biologique’s Calming and Rejuvenating Oil (which I’ve been a huge fan of for years) and the soon to be relaunched RoseGlow Drops Face Oil! These oils absorb deep into the skin, increase blood flow and promote collagen production.
Order your 5 free samples of the RoseGlow Drops Face Oil here and be the first to hear about the new enhanced formula by visiting Olie Biologique.

9. Slip Silk Pillowcase: Slip Beauty's Queen Silk Pillowcase is THE anti-aging queen-size sleep pillow case made of the highest grade mulberry silk for the ultimate beauty sleep. Traditional pillowcases don’t slip, and over time, this causes damage to delicate facial skin and hair resulting in visible premature stretching, sleep creases, damaged hair, and bedhead by morning! Slip silk is so gentle, it allows skin and hair to glide across the surface - protecting and hydrating skin, reducing split ends, and ensuring a longer-lasting blow out. Available in a variety of colors, but I love the snow leopard pattern!

10. Glow Necklace by Looma Jewelry x Melissa Meyers: Give this timeless piece of fine jewelry that can be layered or worn alone - specially created for women who inspire others and glow from the inside out!  In light a more holistic direction, The Glow Necklace nows comes with a mantra card and a healing selenite stone with the intention that you lay the necklace onto the stone to ‘charge’ the healing energy for when you wear it. Available in gold and rose gold.

I hope you enjoy giving one of these to a special mom this Mother’s Day. I would love to hear your feedback on some of these ideas and if you have some things to add to the list, please do so in the comments below!

Wishing you all incredible hardworking, giving and loving Mom’s a very Happy Mother’s Day!
