**update: this giveaway is now closed. congrats to comment number 44 – Sunshyn!**
I have to introduce you to the new Barista Bath and Body, the first full line of natural hair and skin care beauty products to leverage the revitalizing benefits of coffee.
Coffee, along with caffeine – its major ingredient – has the following advantages. It:
- Features a pH balance similar to the human body, meaning that it cleans better than ordinary soap or shampoo (read more here – very interesting)
- acts as a gentle exfoliant
- performs as an effective astringent
- promotes the appearance of smoother-looking skin, especially in cellulite-prone areas
I was just sent a gift set called I'll Take That to Go. And let me tell you, it is a little piece of heaven. It includes The travel kit contains 2oz sizes of perk it up shampoo, soothe those jitters conditioner, triple shot3 body wash, and room for cream lotion. The shampoo and conditioner were lovely. They left my hair smooth and silky, not at all greasy or gunky, and I love that it is safe for color-treated hair. (Last time I colored my hair, I hated the shampoo I had to use. Just. Yuck.) The body wash was so nice. I hate overly perfumed body washes and this had a nice scent without being overpowering. I have very sensitive skin and sometimes have reactions to new bath products, but I didn't have a trace of that with Barista Bath and Body products. They were very gentle.
And the lotion. I LOVE this lotion. Not only do I love the delicate scent, but it is just fabulous on my dried-out skin. It's so light and silky and leaves me moisturized, not greasy. I'm going to cry when my little sample runs out… and then order some more. Feel free to buy me some for my birthday in September.

I want to win!!
Oh yeah, and I subscribe via Google Reader too! Love it!!
coffee cosmetics? yeah, i’d love to win those!
does having you show up in my facebook news feed count as subscribing?
So let me add my two cents. I got the shampoo and conditioner in my swag bag at the BlogHer style event. I LOVE that the shampoo is sulfate free. That means it does not lather, but it is also REALLY REALLY good for my kind of frizz prone, curly hair. Sulfate free shampoo is really hard to find.
Oh and I like the smell too 🙂
But due to crazy packing issues I had to leave the bottles with my mom when I flew back home. So I would love to win some more 🙂
wow i like the coffee scent- sounds delicious
