BOBBIE’S minute BUZZ…….

April 16, 2010

No matter where you are – rain or shine, I have some fun fashionable finds. Before we see those flowers, we do have April showers.

So first, a beauty tip- mineral makeup is not only filled with benefits for your skin, but it’s water-resistant too! So it’s sweat-proof and yes, rain-proof. While my personal favorite pressed powder is from GloMinerals.com, you can also find Covergirl’s TruBlend, L’Oreal’s Bare Naturale, and more at your local drugstore.

Next, if you’re tired of winter’s wellies and rain boots, Dav has adorable alternatives, rain flats and high-top rain sneakers ($30-49; http://davrain.com/). And if the sun is shining, I’ve got THE perfect purse for your picnic! The Baggy Winecoat is a chic cover for your Franzia or other favorite ($69.95;emmohome.com). It’s literally a party in your purse!

Last but not least, everyone can get a jump start on earth day with a Bobble, a re-usable water bottle with built-in filter to improve the taste of tap water anywhere ($9.95; http://www.waterbobble.com). So fill up at water fountains and more. Made from recycled plastic, and is itself recyclable, each Bobble keeps 300+ plastic bottles out of landfills. The carbon based filter (the industry standard for removing chlorine and organic contaminants) will last for approximately 300 refills ($6.95).

Until next time, be sure ask me what weekend fashion, beauty, or buzz find you’re on the hunt for!

I like The Baggy Winecoat, it's cute and functional -BUT- it is TOO expensive for what it is. I could easily see a kinder price point of say $29.95.

Dear Bobbie. Saw you on the Today Show. You said, “This is the first waterbottle anywhere with a filter.” Nikken Inc. has had a more advanced filter for approximately 10 years. The Nikken filter also returns proper amounts of electrolites. The water is ph balanced for the human body. At your convenience please go to Nikken.com for clarification and much interesting documentation.

  Make sure you order the right size because in order for you to exchange them the company charges you for return shipping even though it doesn’t say this ANYWHERE on the site.

Found them. Thanks. What a convoluted website DavRain has. Very counterintuitive to finding their products.
