Skin Care That Cares

We’re donating Merlot Hand Cream Plus Sanitizer to those affected by last week’s devastating tornado in Joplin, Missouri.  11,000 pieces of Hand Cream Plus Sanitizer are being sent to Missouri’s State Emergency Management Agency to be distributed to victims and relief workers digging through the debris.  We hope to lend a hand by softening the hands of those working to restore Joplin.

UPS is partnering with us in this effort by covering the freight charges.

If you wish to donate toward relief efforts, please visit redcross.org orsalvationarmyusa.org

Smooth Sailing With Merlot Body Butter

Merlot Hydrating Body Butter

During the winter months, our skin can get noticeably dry.  To keep skin from peeling, flaking, and causing discomfort we need to keep it sufficiently hydrated.  That’s where Merlot Body Butter comes to the rescue.  It’s provides an ultra-hydrating level of moisture and leaves skin feeling soft and silky.  Apply it liberally after showering and it lasts all day.

Say goodbye to dry winter skin and hello to soft supple hands, arms, and legs.
