Whenever I look at my tween daughter’s face, I can’t help myself; I smile. She is My Little Valentine. I love the way she smiles; I love the way she launches into explanations of things that she knows so much about; I love when I can see her thinking; I love when I see her totally engrossed in the task at hand. Well, you get the idea because I know you feel the same way.
That’s why Ottilie & Lulu is featuring the perfect gift for your Classy Girl this Valentines’ Day. Give Ottilie & Lulu Face Essentials, (a $33.00 retail value), the perfect tween gift and get a 15% discount when you use the coupon code MLCGV (My Little Classy Girl Valentine).
I often look at my classy girl’s face and try to see how she will look when she is older. I see her wide forehead, her crystal blue eyes, her peaches and cream skin, and her beautiful lips. How can I help her to keep her natural beauty?
As most mothers do, I encourage my tween daughter in a good, daily hygiene regime. I also talk to her about how important it is to take care of her skin. She cleanses twice a day with Ottilie & Lulu Clean Skin Face Wipes. She applies Everyday Facial Moisturizer with Sunscreen SPF 20 to keep her skin from becoming dry or chapped and to protect her from the sun. And, she carries her Sunshine Ball of Lip Balm with SPF 20 in her back pack for application whenever her lips feel dry.
This Valentines’ Day give your beautiful tween Classy Girl all she needs to keep her face naturally beautiful. Give her Ottilie & Lulu Face Essentials . This special gift set comes all wrapped in a delicate white organza bag tied with a red Valentines’ Day ribbon.
A life-long regime of caring for her beautiful face is the best Valentines’ Day gift you can give your Tween Classy Girl!

Over the holidays a lot of my daughter’s friends go away with their families. But now that everyone is back at school, and everyone wants to ctach up, we are in full sleep over season. Aside from the movies, the games, the pizzas, and the non-stop giggles, one of the many things I enjoy about these all-girl evenings is listening to my daughter and her friends discuss their “beauty secrets.”
It is amazing to hear how much they know from watching us. But what is needed is a bit more help in the execution of their beauty tips. For example, the girls all talk about the clear, beautiful skin they see on models on TV and in magazines, and they talk about needing teen acne washes or adult skin care products. For these young girls, those products are really too harsh especially in cold, dry weather.
My classy girl is okay with me participating in these discussions because our product line, Ottilie & Lulu, is specially formulated for tweens, ages 7-14. With the harsh weather conditions many girls talk about skipping washing their faces. And most young girls don’t yet know the importance or benefits of using a facial moisturizer with sunscreen in the winter. Now is the ideal time to encourage them to do both. I discourage the use of soap, adult make up remover cloths or heavy, night time moisturizers.
At our house the girls are offered Ottilie & Lulu Clean Skin Face Wipes at night before they go to bed. The 100% cotton cloth is soft and the cleansing formula is very gentle. In the morning, they are encouraged to repeat the cleansing process and to follow it with an application of Ottilie & Lulu Everyday Facial Moisture & Sunscreen SPF 20. The quick dry, non-sticky formula gives the girls an instant smooth feel on their faces that they love. All Ottilie & Lulu products are dermatologist, allergy, and clinically tested. None of the formulas contain parabens, SLS, phthalates, mineral oil or petrolatum.
My classy girl and her friends love learning about how to take care of their skin with products made just for them. Seeing them looking at their faces in the mirror–and liking what they see and feel makes us all feel happy.

What better way to inspire your daughter to find a fitness activity that she loves than to bring her to the fabulous Disney on Ice: Worlds of Fantasy? The show is exciting, keeps her attention and brings a new appreciation for the skill of ice skating!
We took our kids ice skating a few days prior to seeing Worlds of Fantasy, not on purpose mind you, just an accidental timing that worked out beautifully! After spending an hour on the ice, my kids were happy and tired. It gave them each a great appreciation for what the skaters do in the shows. Even my son, who is not easily impressed, was in awe of the talent on the ice!
You still have time to see Disney on Ice: Worlds of Fantasy if you are in the LA area! Catch the show in Ontario or Long Beach. The show will be moving on to San Diego after that.
