This post is a compilation of events and sales that you need to know about! I have lived in So. California all my life. It’s part of what I love to do is share great events, sales and specials that people don’t always know are available or happening. I do find out and rather than keep it to myself, I like to share the wealth of information so that others can score great deals or have a great time doing something fun — for le$$! Don’t skip past the sales listed at the bottom. This is a busy time. Why not S-T-R-E-T-C-H that shopping dollar with sample sales!

Kiehl’s President Book-Signing in So. California!
___________________________________________
Chris Salgardo, president of Kiehl’s Since 1851 skincare company, has published his first book: MANMADE: The Essential Skincare & Grooming Reference for Every Man.
He will be visiting LA for scheduled public appearances to support MANMADE and to sign books for the public on the dates below at those locations!
His book-signing schedule is as follows:
· Tues., Dec. 15 at The Grove Christmas Tree, 6 to 8 PM, 323-965-0569
(Open to the public: interested parties can RSVP here: http://manmadeatthegrove.splashthat.com/, or by calling 323-965-0569)
· Wed., Dec. 16 at Kiehl’s on Robertson, 100 N. Robertson Blvd., 6 to 8 PM. 310-860-0028
(Open to the public: interested parties can RSVP here: https://manmadeatrobertson.splashthat.com/, or by calling 310-860-0028)
Details on the ManMade:
Chris Salgardo has created a unique and absolutely essential grooming reference that combines basic tips and techniques for all men, tailored sections focusing on specific men’s archetypes, and a quick-reference section addressing men’s head-to-toe grooming concerns.
According to Salgardo, it’s smart – not narcissistic – to take care of yourself, to take pride in your appearance, and to be mindful about your grooming – and many men agree! In 2015, men are paying more attention to their appearance than ever before. Today, men aren’t only talking more about grooming, they’re also spending much more time on their grooming routine. In fact, the majority of men believe that it’s important to maintain a youthful appearance, and anti-aging properties are among the most important qualities they look for in their products.
Men have embraced that their appearance helps to identify them with values that they hold. Rather than dispensing one-size-fits-all advice, Salgardo tailors his guidance to a man’s lifestyle and interests levels, devoting chapters to the specific grooming needs of 5 different archetypes of men:
· The Modern Gentleman: What It Takes to Be Polished and On Point Today
· The Hands-On Man: How-Tos and Life Hacks for the Guy Who Gets Things Done
· The Extreme Dude: Practical Advice for the Man Who Pushes the Limits
· The Rebel Artist: A Few Rules for Thriving Against the Grain
· The Renaissance Man: A Thoughtful Approach to Maintaining Body & Soul
For becoming the best version of themselves – regardless of whether they are working, in business meetings, playing sports, or spending family time, MANMADE is the go-to resource! From battling the effects of aging to hair concerns (too much or not enough) and manscaping; from eyebrow maintenance to body odor & fragrance, Salgardo offers straightforward tips that men can put to use today to look impeccably (but not obviously) well-groomed tomorrow. Each archetype chapter is equipped with helpful life hacks (how to exfoliate with lemons and sugar; how to relax and de-stress when there’s no time to sleep), travel tips (drink twice as much water; moisturize heavily), and inspiring interviews with real men who share how they take care of themselves.

You know me..I would be off to the Spaliday event…but the free movie and party sounds very tempting too. Good deals as always, shopping maven.
I am so much the shopper. I have so many scoops for bargains on home, beauty and fashions.. and then it’s going to be stuff that you wouldn’t think to buy NOW but soon will have a markdown
Though the spaliday event does call my name!!
