INVINCIBLE EYEWEAR
I've broken more than a few pairs of sunglasses, but the Aspire Eyewear For Life, a new brand from ClearVision Optical, lives up to the claim of being lighter, thinner, stronger and more pliable than other optical or sunglasses frames. The sunglasses are thin, heat resistant and will not fade when exposed to sunlight. Proprietary technology allows for unique shapes and a range of color possibilities. Nose-pads do not leave marks and the frames have a seamless hinge so you won't have to replace screws. There are three styles of sunglasses each for men and women with prices ranging from $240-$270. Get them at Eyecare Plus, 301 Petrol Point, Suite B, Peachtree City, Georgia. 770-487-2020. Or for additional locations, visit www.aspireeyewear.com.
AUDACIOUS EYES
Francois Nars has introduced a new mascara. Audacious Mascara ($26) features an exclusive lash-catching brush with more than 200 bristles so you can re-apply throughout the day to magnify lashes. The formula includes humectants and conditioners which leave lashes with a silky finish and no flaking or clumping. It is available online at www.narscosmetics.com.
BE BEAUTIFUL
Give your skincare routine an upgrade and support a local business at the same time. Decatur-based Bebe & Bella skincare, a family business founded in the mid-1950s, offers a regimen based on the Japanese layering method. The six skincare products are designed to work together to reduce wrinkles and signs of aging. The cleanser ($65), toner ($52), facial essence serum ($70), eye cream ($65), night cream ($120) and facial essence stick ($65) contain patented probiotic and Fissone yeast propagate technology to encourage faster cell turnover, fight free radicals, exfoliate and even skin tone. Skin is deeply hydrated and softer. Add the supplements, BeClara Skin and Collagen Pro, to enhance benefits from the inside out. The skincare line is available at www.mybebella.com.
