The time in between Thanksgiving and New Years has an increasing feel of enchantment as Fall, a romantic season, inspires the coziness of Winter.
Holiday Spirit is in the air! Emotions are flying high!
I enjoy keeping my senses grounded by waking to the openness of the northern hemisphere with the scent of Atlantic Cedar and Norwegian Spruce while steam opens up my sinuses. Philip B has bottled this feeling into Nordic Wood, an invigorating hair & body wash. Made with pure botanical extracts, camphor and eucalyptus Philip B Nordic Wood will stabilize your day during an this energizing time of year so you can stay grounded and focused.
Philip B. Nordic Wood travel size makes great stocking stuffer!

The cool natural fruit scent provided by Orange oil and Grapefruit peel oil is the mark that
Anthony For Men Alcohol Free Deodorant
succeeds in its objective
“to not smell bad”.
The botanical and herbal extracts naturally deodorize. Aloe, anthems nobles flower extract and Calendula are calming and soothing enough for the gentlest skin.
Don’t be fooled by the name this product is suitable for either sex.
Definitely one of the most favorite things to be
borrowed from the boys.
You can find all of our great Anthony products at either of our Soho locations. Thompson Chemists is located at 137 Thompson Street and Thompson Alchemists is located at 449 West Broadway. You could also find Anthony for Men products on our website.

Posted by Thompson Alchemists in Thompson News & Events.add a comment
We are proud to announce the U.S. premiere of Jack Georges must expressive leather bag collection.
Jack Georges introduces the SPIKES & SPARROW COLLECTION to the U.S. leather market after its tremendous european reception. The Dutch label ”Spikes & Sparrow is a trusted brand with a great presence in northern Europe,” says Mr. Georges. “We worked with them to develop a new collection that combines American and European sensibilities. The result is a line of distinct, vintage styled, vegetable tanned buffalo leather goods with an edginess that gives them a look that is both casual and classic at the same time.”
Indeed, the SPIKES & SPARROW COLLECTION offers a modern twist on handmade leather bags. The collection is borne from simple but refined craftsmanship. The number of gusset pockets in each piece hint at the collection’s versatility.
The SPIKES & SPARROW COLLECTION offers top zip briefcases and messenger bags along with a crossbody and a large day bag. The unique vegetable tanned buffalo leather has great character that will age beautifully with time.

Jack Georges Leathergoods (Emily’s got a new knitting bag!) November 13, 2011

As soon as I saw the new Jack Georges Zip Top Totes I knew the slate colored one had to be mine. These extra large, limited edition totes are perfect for travel (from now on it’ll be my carry on!) and even better suited to my tendency to carry way too many knitting projects around with me!
Right now I’ve got my “Peachy Legwarmers”, my “Blueberry Hoodie” and 3 or 4 different swatches for future projects, all fitting comfortably in my new bag! And it’s a heck of a lot classier than my last beat up, worn thin, dirty, dingy, free-giveaway knitting bag!
My boss Jolie Alony has known all about Jack Georges and his fabulous leathergoods for more that 20 years, all the way back to her days working in her father’s luggage store. We at Thompson Alchemists are honored to carry a limited selection of his wonderful products, including the Spikes & Sparrow line, the extra large Zip Top Toes and a variety of wallets, passport sleeves and iPad cases!
Jack Georges stands behind the craftsmanship of his bags: each one comes with a warranty against defective parts or flaws. These bags are sure to please. Pick one up and you immediately sense the quality of both the leather and the craftsmanship. I’m certainly sold!
Jack Georges Zip Top Tote, Blue, $100.00 (Limited Edition, please call for availability)

The #1 Bestselling (and easiest!) peel ever by Dr. Dennis Gross October 29, 2011
Posted by Emily in Pictures & Video, Skin & Hair Care.Tags: Dr. Dennis Gross

A while back the lovely people at La Bella Donna turned us on to the (wonderful) skincare line by Dr. Dennis Gross. Focused on preventing and reversing sun-damage, they also make the #1 selling at home peel, the Alpha Beta Daily Face Peel. There are a couple of things that set this peel apart from the rest of the pack. First of all, because it is meant for daily use it’s actually pretty gentle. It also focuses not just on peeling away the dull, dead, lackluster layers but also works to fight breakouts, calm redness and fights aging with antioxidants like Retinol, Ubiquinone, and Resveratrol.
I’ve been using it here in the store pretty regularly (although not daily…) and I’m solidly sold on it! I find it gives me better results than some of the 20-minute mask-style peels and it’s much gentler on my sensitive skin. Since I’ve been using it my smile lines have diminished and my pores are noticeably smaller. Hooray!
And my favorite part about this product is how easy it is to use. Just two steps! And the pads come pre-moistened and ready to use! Perfect for a lazybones like me!
