Meg’s new CD is finally available online here at The Shopping Channel.  Passages continues Meg’s experimentation with sound, arrangement and style.   This album begins with a brooding and bluesy duet with electric jazz/fusion guitar player Frank Gambale (of Chick Corea Fame). It tips a hat to 70’s pop with layers of keyboards and angelic backing vocals and ends with the sound of r&b/gospel/dance and a rendition of Roger Murrah/Marcus Hummon’s Only Love.  You can listen to a clip of the CD in this post.

You can also listen to a fun radio interview of Meg from WOR News late night Talk radio yesterday - very entertaining, *very* New York.

Not surprisingly, the sun-kissed glow is an uber hot look this summer. Tanning as we all know is a big no-no, but there are abundant amounts of bronzing products and faux tanners that can help you achieve a beautiful golden glow. When applying faux tanners, always remember to exfoliate and scrub first! It may seem like a simple first step, but surprisingly many forget. Rough skin (e.g. ankles, knees, elbow and wrists) has a tendency to turn too dark.

Bronzer is a daily part of my make-up routine (and I apply it all year, not just in the summer). This summer it also happens to be one of the hottest hues—from metallic eyes, to shimmer cheeks and lips. Applied to the lips it looks elegant and fresh. Applied as an all-over glow, it gives a soft, refined, halo-like finish. To achieve the latter without looking like an orange clown, remember to apply where the sun would hit you naturally: cheekbones, bridge of your nose, forehead and décolleté.

Lise Watier Is Your Skincare Sunsmart Set
Includes bronzing powder and universal UV shield

If my hair is anything like yours, the summer combo of sun-salt-chlorine means it needs extra loving care. One of my favorites is Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment. It makes my hair look silky and shiny—not to mention the delightfully, yummy smell!

Ojon Restore & Style 2-Piece Set
Includes the Ojon Restorative Treatment & Spray (Psst! This was featured in LOULOU’s July Beauty issue)

Be sure to tune in to my LOULOU Shops Here at noon (ET) today on The Shopping Channel. We’ll be having lots of fun with more hot summer beauty picks!

As many of you know, the backbone of the Perlier line is our Honey flavour and I’m so thrilled that it’s the star of our  All About Honey Collection Today’s Showstopper.

Honey goes back thousands of years as Nature’s humectant, anti-bactericide, antioxidant, gentle cleanser and emollient.  It is almost like having a humidifier following you around wherever you travel, keeping your skin moist.

We are proud to announce that our honey is 100% organic. That means free of insecticides, pesticides, hormones, anti-biotics and processing that may weaken the purity of this “Nectar of the Gods”.  We manually carry over 600 hives to the glorious mountaintops that cradle the small town of Pia in Tuscany, Italy . The honey that results has a unique and surprising scent and all those age defying skin care benefits that make honey the cornerstone of our skin care legacy.

The Today’s Showstopper is a wonderful choice if you are very sensitive, are looking for a skin care product for the entire family, or don’t like the feel of rich oils on your skin. And it is the perfect first choice if you are just joining the Perlier family!

Wishing you all the best,

Meg Flather

If you didn’t recognize him from past appearances on The Shopping Channel, you’ve no doubt seen his infomercials. Billy Mays was the pitchman behind Orange Glo International’s product infomercials, the most well known being OxiClean.  Most recently you would have seen him on our channel promoting Mighty Mendit.  He was an industry leader in the area of TV shopping, entertaining & informing viewers with his high-energy demos and passionate product pitches. 

Like most, all of us here at The Shopping Channel were shocked & saddened to hear of Billy Mays’ untimely death this past weekend. We’d like to send our condolences to the Mays family and all of Billy’s colleagues.
