2. Taxes dulling your mood -- and your complexion? Aveda's Enbrightenment(TM)

clarity with a proprietary, plant-derived Skin Brightening Blend. Apply to
face, neck and decollete before bed on April 14th and wake up with an
effortless tax day glow.

During the month of April, a full 100% of the proceeds from the sale of
Aveda's Light the Way(TM) candle($10) will go to Global Greengrants Fund,
which provides small grants for community-based water projects around the
world. The soy wax candle is the perfect cure for tax day tension with a
stress-relieving aroma of certified organic lavender, lavandin and clary sage.

tresses to glossy glamour with Aveda Smooth Infusion(TM) Shampoo, Conditioner
and #1 bestseller, Smooth Infusion(TM) Style-Prep Smoother. The plant-derived
formulas infuse smoothness by creating a sleek new surface on hair to help
reduce tax-provoked frizz and fly-aways.

oils to soothe and rejuvenate scalp, body and hair. Great for finishing a
