Skin Booster Smoothie Vitamin E

My current obsession is creating and mixing healthy smoothies. I make all different kinds of smoothies; from energy smoothies, to a liver cleansing smoothie. I want to share this delicious smoothie in particular because not only does it taste good but it is very healthy on the skin and contains a lot of vitamins and antioxidants. I am all about slowing the aging process bit by bit. I mean, what is the hurry? I am 37 years old, but I do not have to look like one, right?

1 cup of Almond Milk

1/4 cup Blueberries

blend and serve :) 

Perfect for the skin from the inside, out. I promise you will love it. I want you to do this amazing drink and then come back and let me read all about it.

Why Won't Your Hair Return to its Natural Texture After Straightning?

 
 



What happened is heat damage. Yes, your hair can lose its ability to curl and will remain permanently straight, and damaged. This happens when you use heat that's too high – it doesn't have to happen over time. One incident with a too hot curling iron, flat iron or a any hot tool and this could happen. Even if you wear your naturally curly hair straight all the time, this isn't a result you want because the hair has been fried straight and now is not healthy.

The only solution for the damaged hair is, unfortunately, to cut it off. If you have several damaged sections all over, you'll need to get rid of them, which means an overall cut. If you're trying to grow your hair longer, this is probably the last thing you want to hear, but it's necessary for the overall health of your hair. Once you cut off the damaged parts, you can start or return to a healthy hair regimen. Keep in mind that the new regrowth will be curly and healthy.

There are many hot tools with a controlled heating button. It will make you adjust the heat yourself. I also recommend a heat protectant for your hair before the heat. I have been a hairstylist since 1999 and as a professional I recommend weekly deep condition. I personally straighten my hair every two days and my hair is still curly. Hope this information helps and visit back soon.

Cancer and Your Birthday Month as a Reminder

I do not want to write a post about how important it is to get annual check ups. I feel like we all know that already. Although we all seemed to know that, some of us women do not get checked annually. Life and circumstances steers us some other directions sometimes and we forget things. I feel that if you pick your birthday month as a reminder, every year you will not forget it. My birthday month is November so I got my check up 2 weeks ago and my results came back negative. Thank you lord!

It doesn't have to be your birthday only, it can be any holiday. Even a family members birthday. The important part is to pick a date that reminds you to make that doctor appointment. If we find it early we can survive this horrible disease.

If you know anyone going through this and need support please read my previous Cancer post for workshops info.

Thank you so much for reading,

Winter Skin and Scalp Dryness





Its officially cold outside! The change in weather dries my skin and scalp really bad. Coming off of the summer season and it is important we take care of our skin.
I believe in oil treatments is essential to the hair to protect and completely revitalize the scalp. For these treatments I recommend; VO5 oil treatment. I recommend applying an oil treatment to the scalp once a month. The oils are applied before shampooing for about 5 minutes followed by shampoo and conditioner.

Brush it out.
Anyone who cares about treating their scalp properly, must have a good brush. While they might be expensive, it's smart to invest in a good brush. Brushing stimulates blood flow which makes her grow faster.

My Radiant Skin

 

Just because you partied all night doesn't mean you have to look like it in the morning. What you eat and don't eat shows on your face. Take some of my tips and I will have your face glowing.

 

Vitamin E - brightens drab skin. I eat Almonds and I also drink orange juice for my Vitamin C. Vitamin C also helps fight wrinkles and banish under eye bags. I eat Apricots for Vitamin A that helps produce cells. We also know that water is a miracle potion. If you want great skin you must hydrate-water dissolves nutrients from food and helps transport them to skin cells. Drink atleast 8 cups daily! A must

 

My favorite that I love is Salmon. Salmon contains omega 3 fatty acids and helps boost collagen. Making skin soft. Heathy stuff. Try it you might like it. I hope you enjoyed my post and come back soon.

 



 



My Look of the Month is Charlize Theron for October 2013

 

 

Charlize Theron wearing Alexander McQueen. I love her as an actress. She is classy and very beautiful. I love her with very short hair but this look gives her a more sophisticated look. Stunning!

 

 

 

 



Do you want to go blonde like Kim Kardashian?

 

 

Many people are scared to go lighter because of what hair bleach can do to the hair. If it is not done properly it can result your hair being damaged and even breakage. I have been a hairstylist for 13 years and I believe the stylist is the one damaging the hair if she/he is not properly educated. The bleach must be done to a strand test and timed to the desired lightness. Timing is important. Not only timed but the hair shaft must be lightned first, followed by the roots then the ends. Since hair tips are typically more porous (making color absorb more quickly) and hair near the scalp is heated by body temperature (quickening the color process). Then, work up to the roots and down to the ends. Following this will create minimal hair damage.
 

HELPFUL TIPS

• Test your chosen color on a sample of hair before applying the color all over. Choose an area hidden underneath the top layers of your hair.

• Shampoo and deep condition, then wait a couple of days before coloring to allow the natural oils in your hair to build up. Your hair’s natural oils protect during the color process. Also condition your hair weely after the service.

• Trim your hair about 6 to 10 weeks. Trimmimg the ends will eliminiate split ends.

I am thinking of lightnening my hair too and if i do I will post my pics here as well. Good luck on your hair color project and I hope I helped you to decide. :)

 



John Russo Photography Fragrances

Photograph for women is a fruity-white floral scent composed of timeless notes and embodied by the beautifully styled photo of Brazilian model Marilia Moreno which adorns the box.  With her wavy hair cascading across the shoulder of her beaded gown, Moreno resembles a classic starlet of the Hollywood of yesteryear, who would have been perfectly at home in Photograph's freesia and tender fruits, atop a classic floral heart of muguet, rose, lavender and gardenia. A musky/ambery base adds a modern touch to these traditional feminine notes.

 

 

 

PHOTOGRAPH for men

The men's companion Photograph scent shows that good taste never goes out of style. Just as model Gui Fedrizzi wears a classic tuxedo with the carefully-maintained stubble favored by trendy young men, so do many modern men rely on traditional aromas to exude class, elegance and masculinity. The citrus notes, spices, leather and tobacco notes that served Hollywood elite in the Golden Age continue to captivate 21st-century men (and women!) in Photograph.

I am in love with these perfumes. The bottles are designed to look like pure elegance. Please visit www.johnrussofragrances.com

My Personal Tips for Flawless Skin

Having flawless skin is absolutely my thing! When my skin is glowing and blemish free, I project a confident self. I feel sexy and extremely proud for my age. When my skin looks dull, dry or I am battling zits and other blemishes, I feel self conscious and shy.

 Read my 8 rules for flawless skin below and add your own in the comments! xo

1. Remove your makeup everyday. A must!
2. Drink lots of water daily and drink less soda. Stay hydrated!
3. Get your beauty sleep, at least 7 hours daily.
4. At night, try using retinoids. Helps with wrinkles and also fades spots and scarring.
5. Don’t overuse acne products. This can lead to drying and in some cases severe drying. Follow the recommended instructions.
6. Use sunscreen. This is an absolute. Look for oil free or sunscreen made specifically to not clog pores.
7. Don't stress. Try a new thing called yoga and RELAX!
8. Read books. Books takes your mind to other places.

Exercise daily! Be Happy! Age 36 and proud.

 

 

5 Tips for Beautiful Winter Skin





I know I do not want to think about it yet, but winter is around the corner! And when winter hits my skin it gets super dry. This season 2013, I am going into winter prepared and ready to tackle the freezing weather like a super hero.

5 Tips for Winter Skin

• Pick moisturizers with sun block.
• Go soft and subtle on the cheeks and eyes.
• Try cream-based blush in a rosy tone.
• Give your makeup a weightless look with a nourishing light foundation and my favorite is True Match.
• Go for dark tones on your lips with a hydrating lip color like Cover Girl Tempt Seduction 355

 Also I drink a lot of orange juice (vitamin C) which it is important for the skin and to prevent a winter cold.



Nerium AD Age-Defying Teatment

 

 NeriumAD age defying night treatment cream is my new obsession.You have probably came across a few of those too.  I am totally amazed and impressed with what my results has been.


I used the product as directed.   I noticed that my skin was looking brighter and tighter.  I am impressed and speechless.  I could definitely see that my face looked softer, and tighter. I am ecstatic. I love to see results with my own eyes.


Not only do I love the results, I also love not having to use several products at night before going to bed.  Since using NeriumAD I found that when I do wear makeup it looks much better.  I also like the clean fresh youthful look I have when I am not wearing makeup.

 

I absolutely love NeriumAD and will continue to use it. If you are looking to take years off your face and look younger in days then you need to give NeriumAD a try.  I hope you found this NeriumAD review helpful and I look forward to hearing about your NeriumAD experience.
