As true blue fashionistas would say, there is no right season for tanning. It should be an all year round thing that everyone must sport. Well why not? Wouldn’t a tanned skin look gorgeous in contrast to the radiant whiteness of the snow during winter? It is the era where the sun is not the main source of tanning ourselves. Of course, there’s always the trusty but rather expensive tanning salons happy to serve anyone who’s willing to pay a couple hundred dollars. Before you get worried about not having the big bucks to get that gorgeous tan you’ve always dreamed of, there’s always the solution called â€œusing tanning goggles and stickers.

Honey, when we talk about skin, we talk about the organ that covers at least ninety percent of our whole body. So, lest you experiment on those tanning lotion and spray on tanners and end up spending more for the treatment of your allergies, try to invest your hard-earned cash on the trusted brands that will deliver great results. After all, it’s not called splurging because you’re already cashing on the cheaper alternative to tanning. Instead, try to call it â€œcareful and productive extravagance.Thus, ditch your plan of going through stacks of tanning lotions in the supermarket and shop for those expertly made ones that are designed to care for your skin and not to cause rashes, irritation or unnecessary burning.

Using tanning goggles and stickers may not be a popular choice as compared to the tanning via sprays used in salons. When it comes to these however, The Tanning Lotion Outlet is guaranteed to bring you a wide selection of topnotch quality tanning goggles and stickers as well as lotions that will suit your taste as well as your skin care needs. It also features loads of tanning supplies and the best designer tanning lotions for this year. It’s got every hue that you want for your tan! Not only that. Tanning doesn’t only have to be a feast for the eyes but for the nose as well. Some tanning lotions feature nice scents. Wouldn’t it be great if you look hot and smell nice at the same time! With designed colorful bottles, you couldn’t wait to grab one of these tanning supplies and just lather yourself with them.

Last but not the least, the best news of all is that they are quite affordable than what they should be priced at. With a price range $8 to $40, you’re sure to have a blast tanning away all year through.

Ritz Carlton and Cap Cana join forces

Oct 05, 07 | 1:56 am

Luxury resort community Cap Cana, S.A. is proud to announce a two-fold partnership with global powerhouse The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C., to develop a world class luxury resort, The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana, and a residential venture known as the Residences at The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana. The 220-room resort will compliment Cap Cana’s existing developments and will feature a range of luxury amenities, including a lavish 16,000 square-foot spa, a private beach club, and five restaurants and lounges. The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana and the 194-privately owned beachfront and golf Residences at The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana are scheduled to open in early 2010 and are part of a two-phase $1 billion endeavor (real estate sales and construction).

Spanning 30,000 acres of prime Caribbean waterfront, Cap Cana is ideally situated on 3.4 miles of virgin beaches, the Ritz-Carlton mixed-use property taking center stage on a stunning two-mile stretch of Juanillo beach. To capture the true beauty of the Dominican Republic’s most scenic beach, The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana plans to enhance all rooms with spacious balconies and ocean views, incorporating island materials and an abundance of natural light whenever possible. As an added bonus, the resort will include 8,000 square feet of meeting space (including a 5,800 square-foot ballroom), offering individuals and groups a range of choices for every occasion, from corporate meetings to destination weddings and social events.

“We are proud to welcome Ritz-Carlton, the most recognized luxury brand in the world, to the Cap Cana’s family, as both brands share the same impeccable service philosophy and core family values,” said Dr. Ricardo Hazoury, president of Cap Cana’s Board of Directors. “The Ritz-Carlton, Cap Cana represents a new paradise for the Dominican tourism industry. Together, we will develop a product that integrates the tropical style and design of Cap Cana into the beautiful natural surroundings, with the key focus on the spectacular Juanillo beach and the magnificent views of the Caribbean Sea,” he added.

J. W. Marriott Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of Marriott International, expressed “Cap Cana has envisioned a bold luxury tourism and real estate development project that promises to be one of the most exciting new destinations in the Caribbean. We are excited that our Ritz-Carlton brand will be represented at Cap Cana and are hopeful that one or more
of our other hotel brands will also fit in with Cap Cana’s plans for this world class destination.”

Similarly, Simon F. Cooper, president and chief operating officer of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, states that “We are extremely pleased to partner with ownership, Cap Cana, S.A., to develop a lifestyle resort and residential community in this unique tourism and real estate project, located on the eastern-most part of the Dominican Republic. With some of the finest beaches in the Caribbean, an abundance of golf courses and other recreational facilities, this project will also offer our guests and owners a collection of designer shops, gourmet restaurants, and a significant area devoted to ecological preservation. It will attract affluent and sophisticated travelers from around the world, looking for leisure or group travel destinations that are truly exceptional.”

“This is an extraordinary opportunity to adorn the paradise-like beach of Juanillo with a world class architectural project focused on excellence, that harmoniously combines sophisticated spaces and an authentic tropical ambiance,” said Alejandro Acebal, member of Cap Cana’s architectural committee.
