Brighten Your Cheeks And Spirits With This Simple To Use Tint

In Uncategorized on 2011 at 0000

When it comes to tinting the cheeks, there are quite a few ways to go about making the apples of the face take on a personality of their own.  Today, I was introduced to a great concept and color from the mastermind herself, Sonia Kashuk.  My solution of focus?  Super Sheer Liquid tint in POPPY 03.  

The packaging made for simple color recognition and product dispensing.  One simple pump releases enough tint to grace both cheeks with the right amount of color.  The POPPY 03 hue is perfect for fusing a hint of peachy tone to warm facial features sweetly.  The specialized formula of blue lotus, hibiscus flower and French rose extracts make for a sheer color anti-aging dream.  Apply this product with finger tips onto bare skin or over one of your favorite Sonia Kashuk foundations.

If the sweet and sultry color of Poppy is not enough to draw you in, the tuberose and  Fleur de cocombre fragrance combination certainly will.  In addition to this peach of a tint, Sonia offers two more hues in this book of colors-Peony and Rose.  Add one or more to your cosmetic color collection by visiting www.target.com.

Have a beautiful week!

Travel Weary Skin Takes Back Seat To Jet Set..Magnificent 7

In Uncategorized on 2011 at 0000

Surely you have traveled.  What do you like least about flying while traveling?  Some would say the seating, pressure in the ears…oh…and dry skin?  While the airlines are not able to meet all the creature comforts of domestic and trans-continental flight travel, the sweetheart of skin care has managed to fill in this VERY BIG gap with the ultimate skin care support Jet Set.

At-Home Anti-Aging and Moisture Mixture Produces Many Wonderful Results

In Uncategorized on 2011 at 0000

As a little girl, I dreamed of fairy dust that made things better.  Throughout life, I experienced sprinkles from the Sand Man who encouraged the sweetest dreams.  As I grew up, experiencing the sands of time produced dry skin, especially during cooler months.

A few weeks ago, a new genre of sprinkles entered my world with the promise of nourishment, exfoliation, hydration, refreshment and renewal to lackluster skin.  Beauty Sprinkles™ Vitamin Cocktail Mask™ is so simple, anyone can master its mystique in moments.  The packaged powerful sprinkles (AKA Zoi Berry Sand) consists of some of the most dynamic natural ingredients:  Vitamin B6, Amala, Vitamin B12, Green Tea, Vitamin C, Acai Berry, White Tea, Vitamin D, Pomegranate, Papaya & Pineapple Enzymes, Blueberries, L-Lysine and 25 more ingredients all dedicated to the betterment of your skin.  How do all these sand-dry ingredients of making skin healthier?  When combined with yogurt, all the ingredients activate to a state that works beautifully into skin.  If you have ever applied yogurt onto your skin, it can make the driest surface silky smooth.  Due to its many healing and preventative health benefits, yogurt provides an ideal base for an ultimate mask treatment for the face and skin.

The combination of the two is simple.  Follow these Beauty Sprinkle™ Mask steps fro best results:

Step 1:  Open shell compact and fill center cup with 1 tablespoon of yogurt.  You can use a small bowl if you don’t have a shell.

Step 2:  Open carefully and pour 1/2 packet of Beauty Sprinkles over yogurt and mix well using the enclosed application brush.  Then set brush aside and close shell.

Step 3:  Let mixture ‘steep’ for at least 5 minutes*.

Step 4:  While mask is steeping, prepare your face by cleansing with your favorite cleanser.  For best results, cleanse with warm water and do not follow with a cold rinse.  (You want your pores open and skin to be warm).

Applying your Beauty Sprinkles™ Mask

Step 1:  Open shell and mix once more before application.  Or mix in a small bowl.

Step 2:  Using the application brush, apply 1/2 of mixture to cleansed warm skin.  Then, using fingertips, massage mask in a circular motion all over face, neck and decollete until well absorbed.  Concentrate particularly on problem areas link dark spots, high wrinkle areas, rough patches, or any areas of concern.  For acne skin, avoid rubbing flare-up areas.  (This step lightly exfoliates and prepares your skin for maximum delivery of the vitamin cocktail infusion.)

Step 3:  Do not rinse!  Now apply the remaining mixture all over treated area and leave for a minimum of 10-20 minutes or for oily skin best until dry.

Step 4:  Rinse thoroughly with warm water, followed by cool water, then gently pat skin dry.

Step 5:  Apply only a non-stimulating moisturizer (no glycolic, AHAs, retinols, benzyl peroxide,* etc. for at least 2 hours).  After that time, continue with your regular skin care regime.  Will not interfere with any other product regimen.

Step 6:  Rinse Shell Mixing Compact and Brush in warm, soapy water, dry and store away for use the next time you treat yourself to a Beauty Sprinkles™ Mask!

My experience with the product.  I was completely intrigued with the concept of Beauty Sprinkles™.  The elements are simple to use.  Using yogurt on the skin was quite refreshing as I have used it throughout my life and therefore understood how well it could work on everything from reconditioning to completely moisturizing a sunburned skin surface.  Mixing the ingredients was simple enough…mine were mixed in a small glass finger bowl.  I allowed the vitamins to set in the yogurt for a while longer than called for.  This allowed a more solid breakdown of the sand-dry ingredients.  The nutrient-rich mask was spread evenly over my face and set for 10 minutes.  It was rinsed off with warm water and my face was blot-dried with a towel.  From the minute the mask was rinsed off, I could tell a major difference in the texture of my skin.  There elapsed almost 48 full hours before I applied proper moisturizer.  One thing is for certain, when looking for powerful skin moisturizers, sometimes you need only go as far as your kitchen.  Over-all, I enjoyed the process and fully understand the benefits of these power sprinkles.  Everything you need for a beautiful mask experience is packaged in the kit:  Brush, mixing shell, Zoi Berry Sand Ingredients, instructions.  You provide the yogurt.  Enjoy your own experience with Beauty Sprinkles™ by visiting www.beautysprinkles.com.

Have a beautiful week!

Project Lipstick

In Uncategorized on 2011 at 0000

Beauty is a constant part of our lives in some form or fashion.  It’s everywhere from the everyday to the glamorous and in many different forms.  Some would say it is a vanity fair that satisfies personal gratification, but when beauty gives, it becomes a powerful tool for expressing selflessness while building confidence.

June 29, 2011, I had the pleasure of connecting with a very impressive lady who has made a vision of beauty into a beautiful reality for those in need!  Project Lipstick [a registered 501(c)3 charity] was the vision of Breanna Sage who saw a need to aid women who were emerging into a new phase of life.  Breanna, while attending FIDM in Los Angeles, touched upon many elements including marketing, merchandising and chemistry.  There has always been a common thread of beauty in her world, whether through personal use/interest or pageantry.  Her passion for beauty is only matched with her desire to help others.  What better project to undertake than combine beauty with philanthropy?  Thus Project Lipstick was born.

When Breanna and her team of beautifying volunteers gets together, great things happen!  One shelter at a time, the team of professionals meets  one-on-one with women who are ready to emerge into the career field.  In addition to transforming  the physical appearance of women the team offers to transform the paper appearance of each to ensure an edge in stronger candidacy placement.  This team is more than just makeup and paper, they are angels who instill deep roots of confidence to those who have been buried deep in a cocoon and who need and deserve to emerge as the most beautiful butterfly they can be!  One single success story includes a client who contacted Project Lipstick for a makeup application before an interview.  She had already jumped over one hurdle by securing a living space and was ready to jump over another hurdle with the help of Project Lipstick!

Cosmetic companies and beauty professionals who would like to contribute to the betterment of others who are touched by this lovely charity, may connect directly with Project Lipstick by phone:  212.579.1691 or by email:  Info@ProjectLipstick.org.  If you’re in the beauty industry and would like to partner with a charity, this is it!  Kuddos to you, Project Lipstick and all you do!

Have a beautiful week!

Simple

In Beaute Publicist, Beauty, cosmetics, Face Forward, Ultimate Skincare & Beaute Report on 2011 at 0000

Skincare is a much needed evil in the opinions of those who do not know how to effectively navigate through the millions of remedies, products and certified, professional opinions.  Walking into a cosmetic department or into a cosmetic boutique can be as intimidating as a having teeth pulled for some.  Choosing an effective skin care line that meets the various needs of both men and women can be an arduous task.  Where does one go to find effective skin care without the drama of drowning in a sea of products?

For those who are familiar with the ins and outs of the industry, navigating can be a bit simpler.  There is something for everyone when it comes to skin care and one line has narrowed down the technicalities and challenges of skin care to something  a bit more simple!  Roni Von Henschen, the spokesperson for Classic Beauty skin care,  explained to us in a recent conversation she fully understands what many product consumers need in their daily routine.   According to Roni, Classic Beauty™ with Ester-C®, Alpha-Lipoic Acid, Vitamins A & E, and soothing Botanicals is an oil-free, fragrance-free , non-comedogenic, anti-aging skin care line containing 4 antioxidants, 3 moisturizers and a NEW gentler exfoliant- all in 1 bottle! For all skin types, all ages, women and men; The perfect solution for busy people on the go (ClassicBeauty.com).

What separates this from other care lines is that the line is comprised of only four core products and an exfoliation brush.  The four-step daily ritual starts with the Comforting Cleanser.  This lightly foaming cleanser removes the day without disrupting the skin’s natural balance.  Enjoy two times daily or as needed.  Nourishing Night Cream goes to work when you go to sleep!  The rich, creamy, non-greasy formula is chalked full of prime ingredients like Ester C, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Vitamins A & E.  Working in the best interest on behalf of your skin during the day is Soothing and Protective Day Cream.   One single application prepares skin for an all day excursion with free-radicals.  This cream works well into the skin and may be worn alone or under cosmetic makeup.  Wear with confidence.  The ingredient line up in this particular formula is one of a kind in nourishing and protection with potent proprietary blend of Aloe Vera, Chamomile, Ivy, Allantoin, Cucumber, LaraCare®, Alpha-Lipoic Acid and Ester-C® to name some.   Lip Plumper and Conditioner is a glorious solution for those seeking plump lips while enhancing their natural beauty.  Upon application, the formula cools and soothes lips.  Wear the product alone or under a regular cosmetic lip color ritual.

The exfoliation brush is a tool everyone should have in their vanity line-up.  When used with light pressure, dry, flaky skin sloughs off with ease.  There is no one way to enjoy the many elements of the Classic Beauty skin care line.  What we love about this line is that both men and women may use with great success!  The products meet the TSA guide lines making them travel savvy.  If you are a professional who is on the go all the time, you will love the simplicity and the effectiveness of the ingredients that make up each dedicated formula!  The price is right for the weight and ingredient content.  Over-all, this is a #TopBeaute brand.  We recommend it!

Have a beautiful week!
