Nira’s Hot List Contributed by Virgin Radio Morning Show Co-Host Nira Arora | @niraarora

It’s November – the winds are taking over and there is definitely a need for the cozy!  This time of year is what I call the Chill Factor! November starts to get busy with the holidays around the corner. It’s a time to prep, to snuggle, and to take care of your skin with the change in weather. I’ve made a little list of a few things that may be useful to you… and may possibly be helpful for holiday gift ideas, too! It’s best to embrace the chill factor of November – because we all know it’s not going anywhere!


Active Botanical Serum - Vintner’s Daughter

Have you ever been interested in communicating with your skin at a deeper level? How about with whole plant nutritional skincare? Let me introduce you to Vintner’s Daughter Active Botanical Serum. Our skin changes as the weather changes. Many of us are not aware of our skin’s needs – that’s the majority of the population, trust me!  But there is one thing that you can do to meet your skin’s needs ALL year around! I was introduced to Vintner’s Daughter skin serum and it was a pretty mesmerizing experience. You don’t just apply it – there is a very specific process. A few drops in your hands, you rub them together and first inhale the botanical wonderland. Next you press, and push and press and push all over your face and neck for at least 1 minute. Every ingredient is of the very highest standards and their process not only extracts complete skin nutrition, but it also protects all of nature’s powerful synergies. Your skin will immediately recognize their plant actives and accelerate its own powers of regeneration, repair, brightening, and firming. The power of nature at your fingertips – its award-winning and your skin will thank you!

Octavia Crystal Necklace – Olive and Piper

The Octavia Crystal necklace is just the sweetest!  Whether you grab it for yourself or are looking for the perfect gift for someone to add a little razzle-dazzle to their jewelry collection – the Octavia Crystal necklace by Olive and Piper is a delicate and elegant piece that really shines in the crowd. It’s a beautiful finishing touch for the feminine woman who loves simplicity. You can also add another necklace (or two) for the layered look, which is super hot at the moment! This necklace has been an amazing addition to my personal collection… it pairs perfectly with my oversized Indian-style earrings, making it ideal to wear with my traditional Indian outfits! It has just the perfect touch of glam!  I must warn you: be prepared to fall in love with more than a few pieces when you head over to the Olive and Piper website!

Microderm Exfoliant - R3 Derma 

Did you know that exfoliation is a crucial part of any skin care regimen as it rids the skin of dead skin cell build-up that can cause skin to appear thick and dull? The R3 Microderm Exfoliant from Urban Body Laser gently buffs away impurities and dead surface cells toning, smoothing and purifing facial skin revealing a healthier complexion. Organic Squamosa, derived from the Sugar Apple Tree, is combined with powerful Nutripeptides to enhance collagen production and improve intercellular cohesion and anti-aging.

It smooths and purifies facial skin revealing a healthier complexion and provides protection from harsh environmental aggressors leaving skin looking and feeling healthy all year round.

PJs and Onesies - LazyOne

I never realized how much I love doing the whole matchy-matchy PJ thing… but I think its sooooo cute –especially for holiday family pictures! If you need something for the kiddies or even for the whole family (like I do) LazyOne is just the place for you sleep wear and accessories for everyone! Yes, that includes onesies for everyone, as well – pretty sweet!

There’s another amazing benefit to shopping with LazyOne - they are Canadian! We love supporting local, don’t we?! Even ‘the person who has everything’ probably doesn't own an adult onesie! How often will someone buy themselves a onesie? Probably never. So I think that this is a great gift idea for someone special. They're cute, affordable and totally unforgettable. Trust me, you need to get on this now – the matching holiday pajamas sell out fast!
