Got Merlot? Review and GIVEAWAY

When I see the word "Merlot" I am not thinking skin care, but it kind of makes sense.  Grapes from which my Merlot is made have amazing properties and "Dr. Grapes" as his friends call him or "Mr. Merlot" came up with "Grape Seed Technology" to bring us this skin care line.   Mr. Wayne Becley first learned of a report on people in France whose diets were heavy in saturated fat also seemed to suffer virtually no heart disease.  The report linked the findings to the drinking of red white (my first thought of the word "Merlot") and that's in a nut shell how Merlot was born.

Cuando yo veo la palabra "Merlot" no estoy pensando precisamente en una linea de productos para el cuidado de la piel, pero eso tiene sentido.  Las uvas con las que hacen "mi" Merlot tienen muchas propiedades y el "Dr. Uvas" como lo llaman sus amigos descubrio la technologia para traernos esta linea de productos.  Wayne Becley aprendio de un reporte que la gente en Francia con dietas altas en grasas saturadas no sufrian de enfermedades al corazon y eso fue ligado al consumo de vino rojo (el Merlot en el que siempre pieso) y fue asi como surgio Merlot Skin Care.

I was very privileged to have been given the opportunity to review some of their products and because we're celebrating our first anniversary Merlot also has a gift for you!!!!!!!!!!

Me siento muy privilegiada por haberme dado la oportunidad de conocer y examinar alguno de sus productos.  y como estamos celebrando nuestro primer aniversarion, Merlot tambien tiene un regalo para ti!!!!! 


First up is the Purifying Peel-Off Mask.  Sometimes your face just doesnt feel as smooth as you wish and that's because despite washing and cleaning, several impurities clog your pores and others just dont want to let go.   


Primero: La mascarilla purificadora.  A veces la cara no se siente tan suave y terson como quisieramos and y eso es porque aunque nos lavemos la cara y la limpiemos, muchas impurezas se quedan en los poros y otras se reusan en irse.  


This mask is gentle, quick drying and helps maintain hydration.  Has a cooling and refreshing effect calming stressed skin and even a stressed mind :)  I expected it to have a fruity or grape-y scent but it's unscented.  


Esta mascarilla es suave, se seca rapido y ayuda a mantener la hidratacion.  Tiene un efecto refrescante que calma una piel estresada y hasta una mente estresada.  :)  Yo esperaba que tuviera un olor a frutas o algo asi pero no, no tiene ningun olor. 


Very easy to apply and most importantly, to me, very easy to remove.  Another plus is that is only $16.00 is not a mask that only certain people can afford.


Es muy facil de aplicar y tambien muy facil de quitar.  Otra cosa muy buena es que solo cuesta $16.00 no es una mascarilla que solo ciertas personas pueden comprar.

Next up is Merlot Divine.  It's a sparkling fragrance inspired by the fruits of the vine.  It's a floral/citrusy scent (if that makes sense) but does not overtake you (not too strong where you're disgusted by the second or third application) and it's long lasting.  Also, the bottle can be re-used as a single bloom vase.   This is a great feature, some of my favorite perfumes come in a bottle I wish I could keep but have no use for it.  Merlot fixed that problem
Retails for $25.00

Siguiente: Merlot Divine.  Es una fragancia inspirada por las frutas de la viña.  Tiene una escencia  floral y citrica (si eso tiene sentido) pero no es tan fuerte que estas empalagada despues de la 2da. o 3ra. aplicacion.  Y dura todo el dia.  Tambien el envase puede ser reusado como florero solitario.  Esto me encanta ya que algunos de mis perfumes favoritos vienen en un envase el que quisiera conservar pero no lo puedo usa.  Merlot arreglo ese problema.
Solo cuesta $25.00

About Merlot:

"...Beckley chronicled over 70 research studies that indicated that drinking a couple glasses of red wine each day could be beneficial in warding off certain cancers and lowering cholesterol in the body. The reason: the antioxidants found in red grapes. Investigating further, Beckley found studies revealing the grape’s true power, their seeds. Research studies have shown that grape seed antioxidants are 50 times more powerful than Vitamin E and nearly 25 times more powerful than Vitamin C."

In 2001 Beckley launched Merlot Skin Care, utilizing the power of the grape seed in each unique formulation. Harnessing nature’s most powerful antioxidants, Merlot products work to fight free radicals – molecules caused by smoke, smog, pollution, stress, and UV rays – and protect skin against the signs of aging. From his first experiments in the garage to today, Beckley has built Merlot into a powerful line. Merlot Skin Care products have been praised for their high quality formulations and tremendous value. But the real secret is in the seed."
