Romy Raves

In honor of Earth Day, Origins is making it easy to be green. On Wednesday, April 22, 2010, Origins is having a fabulous trade-in event by offering customers the chance to bring in an empty cosmetic container (regardless of brand) to any Origins retail store or counter (which Origins will then recycle for them through their Return to Origins Recycling Program) to trade it in for a free full-sized Checks and Balances Frothy Face Wash ($18.50 retail value) or A Perfect World Antioxidant Cleanser with White Tea ($20 retail value.)

And to help spread the word, everyone who does a Trade-In and recycles their empty products at Origins is encouraged to tweet or twitpic their experience using the hashtag #OriginsTradeIn. Here’s to being CLEAN and GREEN!!

Congratulations Lauren R. and Stephanie R.! You both are the lucky winners of the Origins Ginger Joys Holiday Gift Set Giveaway (a $32 value!)

Thanks for coming back for another inspired gift idea! Today I would like to share a delightfully yummy, affordable holiday duo from Origins.

Ginger Joys is an adorable and festive holiday set by Origins. The lovely duo includes a 3.4 oz. tube of the Limited Edition Ginger Rush intensely hydrating body cream and a 0.14 fl.oz of Ginger Essence intensified fragrance rollerball. I think Origins gets the fragrance just right in their ginger products with the perfect amount of slightly spicy warm Ginger and citrusy-crisp Lemon, Lime and Bergamot. This scent is a little spicy, bright, refreshing and perfect for the season. The Ginger Rush body cream is wonderfully hydrating and absorbs instantly, just the way I like it. And I love, love the Ginger Essence roller ball fragrance. It is refreshing, clean, wakes up the senses and makes me smile. I carry it in my purse for an instant mood lift.

This delightful holiday duo is valued at $31.50 and as a holiday treat, I am giving away TWO Ginger Joys Holiday Sets to a couple of lucky Romy Raves Readers. All that you need to do for your chance to win one of these adorable sets is post a comment on this blog post telling me your favorite scent of the season and why you love it. That’s all you need to do–I LOVE comments and want to encourage my readers to regularly post comments and share your thoughts. This contest will end at midnight PST on Saturday, December 12th and two winners will be selected using Random.org. You must have a U.S. shipping address in order to enter and only one entry per person. Good luck!
