Happy Labor Day Weekend! How is the summer over already? Every conversation I’ve been having with friends lately confirms that ‘it was just March’. As morning temperatures drop in Connecticut, I am reminded that any day now, my oil-free gel moisturizers will be replaced by richer formulas. The sales during the long weekend are pretty tempting so I am also stocking up on my favorite bath salts (I think my bath-leisure kicks in during fall months). If you’re looking to amp up your self-care routine, the next three days are full of irresistible deals. To help you navigate around what’s going on, I rounded up some of the best offers and included personal highlights. Enjoy!
