The butter from the shea nut also contains vitamin E which is well known for its anti-aging benefits as well as free radical expulsion characteristics, plus it increases micro-circulation in the skin.

Don’t steal the spotlight—be the spotlight

What’s sweeter than candy and twice as nice to gaze upon? This season’s most eye-opening accessory, Candied Lashes!  Candied Lashes, brought to you by NovaLash, are premium lash extensions hand-dipped in ultra-fine, colored crystals and freeze-dried for stay-put shimmer.  Applied by a certified lash artist (find one at novalash.com) to the outer corners of the eyes, these sophisticated and seasonal lashes pair with a standard full-set of NovaLash extensions to add just the right amount of look-at-me glam to every holiday look.
