Labor Day Weekend, fun times!

Labor Day is just around the corner, and we all know what that means! A day off from work where we can relax, put our feet up, and just take the time to do all the things we love. It also means a 4-day week (woohoo!) and marks the end of summer (boohoo!) But how many of us actually realize the true reasons behind Labor Day? It’s actually there to pay tribute to working men and women and has been celebrated in the United States and Canada since 1894 (a bit of fun facts for you!).

So what do you lovely ladies and gents have planned on your day off? I’ve taken the liberty of coming up with a couple of plans for those of you who are stuck for ideas on how to make the most of your long weekend…

  • Go away on a mini-break! Perhaps you’d like to up to The Hamptons, take part in a crazy weekend in Las Vegas or just chill out on Miami Beach. Wherever you’ve decided to go, our Travel coupon codes are a fantastic way of getting away on a budget! One of our best offers is with Southwest Airlines Vacations where you can save $75 off when you book a vacation package of 3 or more nights! Perfect for the long weekend!
  • Remember, there are lots of fun Labor Day parades going on in your area! Why not take the kids and make a fun day of it? Why not get involved with the whole parade and get the kids to dress up, they’d love it! We’ve got fantastic coupons for costumes from retailers such as Hollywood Toys and Costumes where you can save 75% off your order when you spend $80 or more!
  • Host a fabulous party (note: remember our ‘Planning a Party‘ blog post? Use it!) and go all out with food, drink, decorations – the lot! My theory is that whenever there’s a chance to throw a party, throw a party! Labor Day is the perfect reason to host a big one and we’ve got fantastic coupon codes from Stumps, Giant Party Store, Wine.com and everything else to help you throw that Labor Day bash without breaking the bank.
  • If you don’t fancy doing something big, you could also resort to old traditions and have a nice BBQ at home. Sears have a great Labor Day coupon code where you can get an extra $10 off when you spend $75 or more – they’ve got lots of stuff for outdoor living including garden equipment, grills, and whatever else you need!
  • Shop! You can’t go wrong with shopping, we all love it which is one of the reasons you’re here, right! And remember; check out www.couponcodes4u.com before you shop for great savings, discounts, and deals!

Hair today, gone tomorrow…

A lot of our CouponCodes4u.com blog posts have been aimed at the lovely Ladies recently, but Fella’s, I think it’s your turn. I remember having a chat with a dear friend recently about – wait for it – male hair loss. Guys, as much as you can pretend you don’t care about your hair or are not in the slightest worried about hair loss, I have come to realise after this little heart-to-heart that male hair loss is very common and definitely something you are all very conscious about! Either women are just oblivious to it or guys; you’re just good at concealing it.

So, I decided to have a little surf through the World Wide Web to see what I could find on ‘male hair loss’ and came across something interesting. Did you know that 50% of men will actually have suffered hair loss by the time they’re 50, and hair loss can start as early as your late teens or early 20’s? Fella’s, you really need to start looking after your locks before you’re left completely hair-free by the time you’ve reached half a century.

Of course, we all know hair loss can be generic but there are ways out there you can help prevent hair loss!

  • The first and most obvious is heat protection. A lot of males are getting into the whole “hair straightening” and “blow drying” regime lately but remember to always use a heat protector! Heat is extremely damaging to the hair, and you wouldn’t put flame to your skin so why do it to your hair? Invest in a good heat protector and spritz before you straighten!
  • Continuing with the theme of heat, make sure to wash your hair in warm/cool water. If you’re straightening and blow drying regularly cool water will help reduce the amount of heat exposure your hair is getting and you’ll notice the difference immediately!
  • A lot of men only wash their hair with shampoo, but to keep it soft and healthy ensure you use conditioner too. Don’t rub it into the scalp like shampoo – shampoo is there to remove dirt and build up in the scalp and conditioner is there to nourish the ends and keep it fly-away-free.
  • Head massages are a great way to help circulate the blood and also feel great! If you can get one from a partner then lucky you, if not, try it yourself a couple of times a week!
  • Wear a hat during the hottest parts of the day as the sun can not only affect the condition of your hair but can also cause headaches, nose bleeds, and other not so pleasant things! We have some fantastic Hats.com coupon codes where you can get some great big-brand hats for men!

NARS coupon codes for the lovers of makeup!

Women love make up. It’s something we all know. Whether it be from a natural palette to something drastic and crazy, we can never have enough! Us girls here are CouponCodes4u.com HQ are forever discussing what looks we’re going to pull and what we love and hate – from au-naturel English Rose to dramatic Rihanna and Lady GaGa! We’re also forever looking for makeup coupon codes to take advantage of so we were ecstatic when we managed to get you guys some NARS coupon codes!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with NARS, it’s a fantastic brand of makeup with some great colors and products to choose from. As NARS like to put it, they are “Sophisticated, witty, and effortlessly seductive, NARS embraces your individuality providing you with rich colors and luxurious textures and confidence to express yourself, it is your invitation and statement to be who you want to be: YOU”. I couldn’t have put it any better myself!

Fall 2010’s makeup trend is described as “the old-Hollywood meets futuristic look”. To me that sounds pretty much like a contemporary twist on the classic makeup style, perhaps with an added ‘oomph’ to it! Definitely something I’d try out myself – being the daredevil I am! NARS’ Fall 2010 collection is said to be a kaleidoscope of sumptuous shades. And we’ve picked out a couple of products from the Fall collection us CC4U girls have completely fallen in love with!

It’s bright, it’s daring, and it definitely for those who like to be adventurous with their makeup. Described as the “Heiress of haute couture and named after Daphne Guinness, this hypnotizing, deep-violet eyeshadow exudes excitement”.

Again it’s a little on the adventurous side but ever so slightly played down. “The magnificence of this tropical tree, captured in the softest yellow laced with lime”. You can use it to highlight the eye or to blend an array of different fusions of color.

The Douceur Blush really is the epitome the old Hollywood style. “A soft-pink brown hue imparts a honeyed brown innocence on cheeks” – something natural, so all the attention is on the eyes with the futuristic look of the vibrant palette on the eyes!

“Imagine mouthwatering strawberries, just picked. Then delight in the serious, yet sexy shine of this bright pink confection”. This color is luscious and juicy, and will complement the Douceur Blush perfectly!

To complete the futuristic eye look, the Palladium Soft Touch Shadow Pencil will definitely add the ‘va-va-voom’ you need to go all contemporary. Said to “accent or illuminate unforgettable eyes” this “sparkling Soft Touch Shadow Pencil delivers all the vibrancy of its namesake”.

Fancy indulging in some NARS goodies? Check out our NARS coupon codes where we’ve got:

Enjoy!

Suits you, Sir!

So this morning, as I do, I decided to have a sneaky flick through one of my favorite gossip sites and came across an article on “Dapper Dudes in Tuxedos”. As you can image – as any woman would – I immediately clicked on the link to pop open a post with some great guys in great suits. Now this definitely sounds like a topic my girl friends and I have discussed over an afternoon tea – followed by a bunch of disagreements and some hot debate. Here’s the thing, I, personally, don’t believe that every guy can pull off a suit. Sure it looks smart and slick when the cut and the fit is right but guys, if you’re planning on purchasing one with your eyes closed – please stop! There is nothing worse than a fantastic suit that fits poorly and there, believe it or not, is a lot to think about when buying a suit – you have to consider it an investment piece.

First of all, you’ve got to decide where you’re going to wear this suit and what the occasion is. Black is timeless but pretty boring and can look a bit funeral-like at times, so opt for a misty grey suit instead which creates a cleaner and richer look. Think David Beckham, think Brad Pitt, think Armani/Hugo Boss! Then of course, you have to think about the cut. It’s always wise to invest in a good tailored suit which pinches you perfectly in all the right areas, you’ll be able to wear it up or down with a combinations of colored shirts and ties and believe you me, grey is definitely the new black!

Of course, getting a suit – whether it is tailor-made and customised or just a made to measure – can cost a bomb but alas, that’s where we step in. The guys and girls at CouponCodes4u.com HQ have been working hard to snap up coupon codes for you for every occasion so it only makes sense we have some fantastic suit coupons for the guys! I’ve managed to rustle up a couple of the best ones for you, right here…

  • Indochino Apparel coupon codes – Fantastic coupons where you can Get 10% off a suit plus get 1 free pocket square plus free shipping or another one where you can Get 12% off any suit purchase, a free customer shirt worth $99, plus a free tie worth $50 and free shipping too! Wow!
  • Suitupp coupon codes – You can Save up to $25 on any suit, there’s loads to choose from!

Now here’s the best bit, I’ve pulled a couple of great guys in great suits (well, Tux’s to be precise) for you to err… check out “suits with a perfect fit”. Ok so maybe us ladies will be checking a bit more out than the suit, but guys – take note!!

The lovely Taylor Lautner looking timeless in a black tux at the 2010 Golden Globes

Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford at the 20th anniversary of Dolce and Gabbana in Milan looking super sharp and on trend

The CouponCodes4u.com gals’ fave, Bradley Cooper! Definitely looking uber dapper at the 2010 White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in Washington, D.C.

And last but not least, the sexy Brad Pitt looking fabulous as always at the Inglorious Basterds screening at the 62nd International Cannes Film Festival!
