Jaqua Make Delicious Gifts

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

Ah ’tis the season to be jolly. What makes you jolly? Me, it’s got to be luscious bath and body products. There is nothing better than pampering yourself on a cold and grey day!

Here are some pretty pink goodies that are sure to be a hit with any gal pal…or better still put them on your wish list!

Pink Palace Shower Creme Trio ($24)

Three scrumptious Jaqua shower cremes filled with good-for-your-skin ingredients such as fruit and aloe extracts, macadamia nut and evening primrose oil, and vitamins E, A and B5.

This kit contains a tube of yummy sweet Pink Buttercream Frosting, effervescent Pink Champagne and exotic jasmine-laced Pink Potion in a giftable box with rope handle.

Buy it!

Pink Palace Kit ($39.50)
Who would not smile when they received this gift set? We gals love a little pink and these goodies will make us feel all pretty and girlie. The Pink Palace kit contains Pink Potion Shower Creme, Pink Champagne Exfoliating Body Polish, and Pink Buttercream Frosting Luscious Lotion.

Buy it!

Pink Palace Body Butter Trio ($24)
Butter me up baby! Here are three sinfully rich body butters filled with Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, jojoba oil and fruit extracts to soothe, smooth and hydrate your skin. Though they smell good enough to eat - it’s best not to!

Contains 2oz. jars of Buttercream Frosting Body Butter, Pink Potion Body Butter and Pink Champagne Body Butter in a giftable box with rope handle.

Buy it!

Cocoa Butterceam Frosting Guilt-Free Treats ($30)
I know exactly who is getting this delightful kit: My friend Debbie is a frosting-a-holic and will eat an entire tub of it without blinking an eye. A trio of Cocoa Buttercream Frosting Shower Creme, Body Butter and Hand Creme are perfectly sinful for her - but calorie free.

Buy it!
