Made by a notable French family business (since the 1920's!), this is a high quality accessory for a fab price. I'm definitely gonna put this on my wish list...

Inspired by his own world travels and Kiehl's elegant simplicity, Lam wanted to create a streamlined and sophisticated travel accessory. Luxurious yet efficient, it also has a custom inside pocket to hold his fave in-flight beauty aid – Lip Balm #1.

For body care, you're in for a treat. The Mimosa Champagne Sugar Scrub will exfoliate your entire body into a soft, sweet bonbon. Champagne grapes, orange and raw sugar cane contain tons of antioxidants to buff your skin into a glowing pearl. You can then further detox with the Mimosa Body Lotion. This non-greasy moisturizer is antiseptic and anti-inflammatory - perfect for restoring the skin after a full summer of sun, surf and sand.
Last, but not least, the Mimosa Champagne Massage Oil is great for dry skin. Rub a few drops onto your elbows, hands, feet, and knees after a shower, or put some in the bath. The scent is nice and light, so you can still use your own perfume without clashing with it.
For SF Bay Area folks, you can check out the entire line at MNKYTHMP Salon Spa Escape in Union Square. Their artistic director Kenny Berk is there to advise on the best hair regimen, so don't miss out on this opportunity to tame those tresses!

A departure from the original parfum's Rose-Star Anise composition, the new one is a sexy blooming floral, with a gorgeous jasmine heart. It also has notes of Green Mandarin Orange, Red Berries, Red Pepper, Orange Blossom, Heliotrope, Cedarwood, Patchouli, and Amber. Embellished with a silver geometric pattern, sophistication sparkles in the dazzling red bottle.
