Argan oil is one of the latest popular
ingredients in numerous cosmetic, skin, and hair care products, and for good
reason! It’s rich in vitamin E, fatty acids, antioxidants, and carotene
among many other good for you components.
The first time I heard about argan oil as a
cosmetic and skin care ingredient was when I learned about Josie Maran Cosmetics. I recognized her name from her days as
a model, and was drawn to her products not only for their quality and benefits,
but also because of her company's policy of giving back globally and its motto
of "Luxury with a Conscience."
I also respected the fact that Josie was not
only a beautiful woman that branched out from her modeling career to starting
her own business, she is also a mommy. And now her daughter, Rumi Joon (LOVE
that name), is going to be a big sister!

Well, congratulations are in order, as Josie
Maran is now pregnant with baby number 2! It will be interesting to see how she
will balance the demands of her burgeoning brand with the joys of a growing
family. Here is a special note from Josie:
“Motherhood has been a truly inspiring
experience. As you might know, during my first pregnancy, I became even more
aware of what I was putting inside my body and on my skin, and that motivated
me to create my all-natural cosmetics line. I’ve learned a lot about myself by
watching Rumi Joon grow up. Just seeing her smile makes me realize that
being happy is the ultimate beauty secret, and I can’t wait to welcome this new
addition to my family. I’ve already gotten back into pre-natal yoga, and I’m
just bracing myself for the weird food cravings to kick in. As all you moms and
moms-to-be know, this is an amazing time in a woman’s life, and I’m looking
forward to sharing this experience with you.”
I can so relate to those sentiments!
Motherhood is such an ever evolving
responsibility; it seems that as soon as you become accustomed to one stage,
life is swiftly propelling you in to the next stage. Dealing with pregnancy is
different from adjusting to life with a newborn, having a newborn is totally
different from dealing with a toddler, and let's not even talk about the tween
and teen years! When you take on the additional tasks that accompany having
multiple children-the responsibility can (at times) appear crushing!
How do you handle the balancing act of
motherhood and family life, with having a satisfying social life, AND a
successful professional life? Do you have any tips for making it all work? And
how do you do it all AND maintain your sense of self and style? Inquiring minds
want to know!
Until next time…
Ciao, XxO
