LASplash.com: Celebrity Gift Suites Showimes Golden Globe Gifting House 2007 - Part 2 By Judith Orr, Features Editor
Showtime's Golden Globe Gift House was so large and filled with great things I had to make two separate articles in order to include all of the fabulous vendors. It was held in Los Angeles at the Cooley Estate, an elegant mansion in Los Angeles. Make A Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.

Wellements is a company I absolutely love. They make the most delicious snack or meal replacement bars. They're made with all certified organic ingredients, grown without pesticides or herbicides.. The Bora Bora Bars come in five delicious flavors: Cranberry Crunch, Cinnamon Oatmeal, Almond Sunflower, Peanut Peanut and Sesame Raisin. www.wellements.com
Orlane is a luxury skincare line from Paris. A dermatologist and a psychologist created the First Psychodermic Cream. Orlane Hypnotherapy addresses the fact that 80% of dermatological skin disorders are mainly psychological in origin. The greater the emotional stress, the greater the impact on the skin and the psychological functioning. During extreme emotional stress or trauma, the skin's levels of Omega 3 and DHEA are compromised. Hypnotherapy brings back all of the skin's lost properties, putting the skin in a state of complete well being and youthfulness, leaving it firm, hydrated, nourished, protected and radiant. It retails for $490 and is available at Neiman Marcus in Beverly Hills. www.orlaneparis.com The Different Company makes delicious perfumes that bring to mind 'Upscale Elegance.' They make their fragrances with the finest French ingredients.
The Different Company was created in Paris in 2000. The Different Company produces fragrances designed by Jean-Claude Ellena and his daughter, Celine Ellena. All of the bottles and leather goods are designed by Thierry de Baschmakoff. Sel de Vetiver was created by Celine Ellena. It retails for $135 and is available at Fred Segal in Santa Monica and Neiman Marcus in Beverly Hills. They have many other delicious scents too. I love the Jasmine. www.thedifferentcompany.com
Leonor Greyl, Paris is a family owned Paris based company. Caroline Greyl, Chief Executive Officer, represented them. They have an incredible array of products for healthy and glamorous hair using natural products. One fantastic product that Caroline was showcasing was the 'Shampooing Creme Molle De Bambou', which is specific for long hair and dry ends (which is perfect for me). It's formulated with the natural active ingredients: wheat protein, silk proteins, and medulla bamboo. You will notice the difference from the very first application. It regenerates the hair and instantly restores softness, shine and manageability. Another terrific product they have is 'Creme Regeneratrice', which is a conditioner for very dry hair. It's especially formulated for bleached, permed hair and damaged or fragile hair in general. It also regenerates the hair and restores its beauty. www.leonorgreyl.com Billy Jealousy is more than a mere product; it's a whole way of life. Sexy, suggestive and packed full of attitude, Billy Jealousy is a slick range of products that refines what you are: effortless yet edgy, playful but still polished. Just think of it as an irreverent statement of contemporary male cool.
Fuzzy Logic Hair Strengthening Shampoo is an advanced peppermint Shampoo formula fortified with DHT blocking ages, fighting hair loss at its roots many men also fear losing their hair, which is a legitimate concern. The main culprit for this hair loss is DHT, a by-product of the male hormone testosterone. The DHT hormone attacks the defenseless hair follicle causing it to shrink, wither and eventually disappear. But hold on, help is now here with Fuzzy Logic Hair Strengthening Shampoo. Fuzzy Logic contains two DHT blockers, Methyl Lactate and Peppermint Oil. Combined, both effectively inhibit DHT production on hair cells and help block the formation of DHT on hair producing cells. www.billyjealousy.com
Spirit Knit Designs™, is a new collection of hand knit scarves designed by magazine writer and editor Karen Brailsford Spirit Knit Designs made it's debut at the Showtime Gift House. Her scarves are soft and lovely and have interesting beads or detailing on them. They currently do not have a website, but as soon as they do I will post it here.
ProLinc makes great products for rough or calloused feet. And their products really work. They also have a complete line of products for nail care including cuticle away, Diamond Dry polishes, Spa products and general mainicure essentials. www.callusaway.com Single The Single line is young and chic. The dresses are lightweight and comfortable. Their silky feel and framing of the body can't help but make you feel sexy, sexy, sexy. I especially like the long sleeve kimono style dresses. They are very low cut and really show off one's figure.
Single's collection is punctuated by all-original silk prints set against fluid silhouettes inspired by the gilt-edged glamour of Gustav Klimt's, "The Kiss" and the ravishing art of Alfons Maria Mucha. Designer Galina Sobolev says, 'Klimt and Mucha had such an idealized way of rendering women in their art and I tried to capture that spirit in a collection that is dedicated to feminine sophistication.' Here clothes have been seen on Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty and The Ghost Whisperer, and have been worn by Hollywood's biggest stars such as Eva Longoria, Nicolette Sheridan, Marcia Cross, Sophia Bush and Angelina Jolie. Single is available nationwide in high end boutiques and major stores including Neiman Marcus, Bendels, Bloomingdales, Nordstroms, Harvey Nichols, Macy's West, Fred Segal, Horn, Planet Blue, Scoop and Inter-Mix. www.buysingle.com
