Thanks Citysearch Boston, Fresh and LuxLash!

Last Thursday, I was lucky to be invited to another fabulous Citysearch Boston event held at Fresh.  I've heard about Fresh and sampled some of their products so I was definitely interested in learning more about their products.  I learned about how they focus (and perhaps even pioneered) the use of natural ingredients in skincare products.

The event was a blast.  While others were excited about the complimentary St. Germain cocktails and trying out the cupcakes from the new-to-Boston Cherry Bomb Bakery, I was happy to indulge in an eyebrow consultation from LuxLash and a make-up consultation from the fabulous Jeannie Vincent of Fresh.  Jeannie is also a contributor on the ever so fashionable Boston website - New Brahmin.

I had a fabulous time at  the event and even picked up a few Fresh products.  Photos from the event can be found here.  There was also a drawing for a goodie bag and I dropped my name in it but sort of forgot about it.  That is until I got an email from Fresh stating that I was the winner!  Citysearch Boston editor Christine Liu told me that this bag would be drool-worthy so I was so excited to see what I had won.  The bag included:

Michel Nischan's Sustainably Delicious cookbook.  I browsed through it last night and I absolutely love that it focuses on sustainable cooking - using ingredients that are readily available and that respect the local environment.  This is something that will definitely come to good use!


I also got a nifty reusable water bottle from Fresh.  I already have one at work so this one will be the one I carry around the city.  

I also got a gift box filled with some amazing Fresh products including the Soy Face Exfoliant and Cleanser, Umbrian Clay Face Treatment, and a product I already adore - their Brown Sugar Body Polish.  I even used the Brown Sugar Body Polish this morning and my skin feels so unbelievably smooth.



I have a better photo with the actual products but I'm having some issues uploading it this morning.  I'll upload it once Blogger is less finicky.

And finally, I won a gift card (worth $395) for a full set of lash extensions.  I've never done lash extensions before but I am definitely excited to try them out for a special occasion!  


Thanks again to Citysearch Boston, Fresh and LuxLash for such a fantastic prize!  If you're interested in learning more about CitySearch events, apply to be a Dictator here.
