Piña Colada

If you like Pina Coladas, then you will love this new Eau de Vie Pina Colada Eau de Toilette Spray ($18). Are you singing yet? If not, you will be after smelling this delectable blend of coconut, lime, kiwi and bamboo. The scent is nothing short of fresh, summery and fruity! If you're someone who really enjoys the essence of the beach, this is the fragrance for you!

The packaging of this perfume is really simple, just like its sister scents. If you haven't heard of them yet, take note of this fun collection based around the smells of food! And if you're not into Pina Coladas that's okay—you can choose between Whipped Cream, Vanilla Ice Cream, Almond, Coconut, Cappuccino with Cream and Chocolate and Mint. Bon appetit!

Sometimes you need a vacation and taking one is simply impossible. This is when you have to pamper yourself. If you can't sip a piña colada on the beach, why not have a piña colada exfoliating bath? Yep, you can make a great all body exfoliant with the same ingredients you use to make the very same tropical cocktail you would like to be sipping on some beach.

According to Lindisima this treatment will both moisturize your skin as well as act as a gentle exfoliant. The coconut milk moistens the skin and the fruit acid of the pineapple exfoliates dry skin.






Here's what you need:

• 2 cups of pineapple juice
• 1 cup of coconut milk (fresh or canned)
• 1 cup of milk (fat free is better and easier to clean)

Here's what you do:

1. Place all ingredients in a blender to mix or puree. Draw a bath with water at your favorite temperature.

Pour "piña colada" mixture into the bath water and soak for 10 or 15 minutes.

2. Sip some cold water with lime or lemon. Close your eyes and feel the Caribbean sea breeze.
3. Shower after the treatment and apply body lotion.

Just a reminder that if you are allergic to any of these ingredients, you should just give this treatment a pass. And since soaking in hot water can increase the effects of alcohol, you shouldn't drink a piña colada while taking your piña colada bath.

You may not know it, but many drinks can be a fattening fright. Calories from cocktails don't fill you up like calories from food. And after 1 or 2 drinks, you may be more likely to say yes to that chocolate fudge brownie sundae.
