  1. Fan Review of Jersey Shore Cosmetics Mongongo Lip Conditioners

    Lip Love. A fan of Jersey Shore Cosmetics tells it like it is with our wildly popular Mongongo lip conditioners;

    Quality: excellent; this stuff works. The formula is lightweight; not sticky, or too glossy, making it unisex-friendly. I’ve tried all three varieties: Mandarin Green Orange Ginger, Vanilla Coconut Cream, and Blackberry. The scents are light, not overpowering or flavored. Surprisingly, my favorite is the original, Mandarin Green Orange Ginger, which seems to be slightly more effective for me in terms of healing hydration. I say surprisingly because this is not a scent I would normally be drawn to, and to be honest, the brand isn’t one I would’ve ever thought to try. So how did I discover my current favorite lip balm? This is one of those times where beauty boxes come in handy; the Orange lip balm was included in one of my Ipsy bags a while ago. Normally, I would give something like this away since I wasn’t initially drawn to the packaging or the name of the scent, but thankfully I gave it a try…and it was love at first lip smack, reminding me to never judge before I jury. Since then, I’ve purchased all three and plan to restock regularly!

    Value: good; available in two sizes and three scents: $10 for 0.15oz, $15 for 0.25oz. On the pricier side of chapsticks, but I appreciate the good ingredients and just one swipe of this stuff lasts a long time on my lips. Even after a single application, my lips were noticeably softer and hydrated. Dry patches easily exfoliated away, and my lips stayed hydrated and healed with repeated use.

    Tip: you can find discounted offers through Ipsy or JSC social media from time to time, which I highly recommend taking advantage of since this is a great way to try a few different products at once.

    Overall: excellent; this is better than your standard Chapstick, better than Baby Lips, better than Burt’s Bees or EOS…and from my experience on the higher end: better than Jurlique, Tokyo Milk, Jane Iredale, or Jouer just to name a few. Overall, I hope the brand continues to expand the Mongongo line and highly recommend you treat your lips to this formula. (If they can eventually include SPF to yield the same results, that would be perfection!)

    Nourishing, 100% natural, certified organic and moisture rich, our Mongongo Lip Conditioners are a hit! If you don't know what all of the hype is about, it's time for you to try them! Take advantage of this Special Offer!.. To date, Jersey Shore Cosmetics has sold more than 1.4 million units of its Mongongo Organic line. Quattro says, “It’s an aroma with essential oil. … I sat in a room, and I came up with a formula, back and forth – maybe 14 times before I got it where I really wanted it – with my children. You are not going to find that scent [elsewhere]. People have attempted to replicate it, and they haven’t even come close.” Her niche product line is notable not only for its quality, but for its safety in a world in which no cosmetics manufacturers are required to submit their ingredients to the FDA. Quattro notes, “We have to be really, really tenacious about advocating for the consumer with clean, healthy cosmetics, with good non-toxic ingredients. That’s what we do at Jersey Shore Cosmetics.” Read more about our company here..

  6. Are Hand Sanitizers Poisoning Our Kids?

    Hand sanitizer often has a form of alcohol, such as ethyl alcohol, as an active ingredient and works as an antiseptic. Other ingredients could include water, fragrance, and glycerin. Other non-alcohol based hand sanitizers contain an antibiotic compound called triclosan or triclocarban. This ingredient can also be found in soaps and even toothpaste. These products are often labeled antibacterial, antimicrobial, or antiseptic soaps. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration says triclosan could carry unnecessary risks, given that their benefits have yet to be proved. Recent studies have raised questions about whether triclosan might be hazardous to human health, as studies on the compound are ongoing.

    Jersey Kids Alcohol-free Hand Cleanser and Jersey Shore Cosmetics Alcohol-free Hand Cleanser are products which performs the same function as popular brand hand sanitizers without triclosan, harsh alcohol, pesticides and petrochemicals found within existing products on the marketplace.

  7. The End of Summer Doesn't Mean the End of Sunscreen

    As the Summer season winds down, let's not forget the importance of sun safety, all year around. The end of Summer should not mean the end of sunscreen and protective clothing, sunglasses and sun hats. Remember to protect your skin from prolonged exposure to the sun when playing sports, walking on the beach and in town on cool days ahead. Remember, that the sun's rays can be strong and penetrating on cool and overcast days.

  8. QVC To Acquire Billion Dollar Online Shopping Site Zulily

     

    Jersey Kids Jersey Kids® Products are a Favorite on Zulily Offers.

    Less than two years after going public, Internet retailer Zulily Inc. is selling itself for a fraction of its post-IPO high as the flash-sale strategy it helped pioneer has lost its allure among consumers.

    The Seattle-based company agreed to be acquired by Liberty Interactive Corp., the parent of home shopping network QVC, in a cash-and-stock deal that values Zulily at around $2.4 billion.

    Zulily shares surged 49% on Monday to $18.74, but Liberty is buying the company at a discount to its initial public offering price.

    The reason for the decline has been a reversal in Zulily’s fortunes. Founded in 2010 as a retailer of toys and children’s clothes, Zulily grew to top $1 billion in annual sales last year as it expanded into adult apparel and home goods.

  9. WOWEE! It’s a Great Summer at Jersey Shore Cosmetics!

     

    You Like Us!  You Really Like Us! We already have more than 22,000 positive reviews for our Mongongo lip conditioners! We are thrilled that you like Mongongo as much as we do…but we kind of thought you would.  How can you not love the way your lips feel so silky-smooth, luscious and hydrated from the second you put it on?! Jersey Shore Cosmetics sources the best, most useful ingredients for its products, and our products are made in the USA!Mongongo oil is particularly fascinating!  It is derived from a fruit (well…some consider it a nut) that has the most amazing hydrating, regenerating and restructuring properties and offers a unique protection from UV and environmental pollutants in skin applications. And, as with Jersey Shore's other sun protection products, the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org) who rates brands, with regard to health risks related to toxins and harmful ingredients in products, has rated this product as a top pick in safe skincare products, beating out many of the "famous brands."Mongongo is responsibly sourced from the Kalahari Desert, which is a harsh, arid and semi-arid environment in southern Africa covering parts of South Africa, Nambia and Botswana.“Kalahari” takes its name from a local Tswana word meaning "the great thirst" so they need some strong skin conditioners to combat that environment, and mother-nature provides it.  In fact, Mongongo oil is used as a body rub by the !Kung bushmen to cleanse and moisturize their skin, and protect it against the harsh desert environment.  They also eat Mongongo as their primary food. And are one of the few peoples of the world whose blood pressure does not increase with age. Although this is unlikely to be entirely due to Mongongo, the predominance of this fruit in their diets suggests a link. So now you know where we get Mongongo… let’s get you some too!
