Age Balancing Night Cream by Murad



I know, I know... When you are in your 20's your skin is tight and flawless; once you start hitting the 30's when you look in the mirror, you see things you have not seen before.  Maybe little fine lines or even some skin marks. Well no need to feel down. Beauty comes from inside, we all know that, but there is nothing wrong with enhancing our outside beauty, right?

I am here to introduce to you girls, two products I have used for the past week. It has done what it said it will do. My skin is clearer, and I must say tighter! In the morning I use the reform followed by the moisterizer. I promise it is not heavy at all, and it works all day. You will also love the texture; it's a creamy feel. The reform smells soft and the reform texture is very light. People are asking me if I lost weight because they see it in my face. Ofcourse I was like "yup," lol; that must mean my face is tighter (just in case you didn't get me) lol. The price is not bad at all for a 1.0 FL. OZ. reform and 1.7 FL. OZ. price runs about $67.00 but a little goes along way. Go ahead and try it. Have you tried it? What do you think about it. Comment below!


Benefits:
An age reform treatment that increases firmness while also improving skin texture to reveal softer, smoother skin.

Additional features and ingredients: Glyco Firming Complex restores tone while helping protect elastin to preserve youthful resilience Glycolic Acid exfoliates for smoother, softer, healthier-looking skin Beta-Carotene, a carotenoid and Retinol precursor, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without irritation


Recommended Use: Every day after cleansing and toning, massage evenly over face, neck and chest. For optimal results, follow with recommended Murad moisturizer.

Curls and the Humidity

 
 
 
 
I was born with naturally curly hair so when the weather wants to be hot and humid those are the days I look crazy. Curls become frizzy, hard to control.  I usually control my hair with humidity control products. Sometimes I have no choice and style my hair sleek back due to unmanagable weather hair! UGH!!!!

Do not just sleek it and go. Try other styles like some examples below but buns can be stylish as well.

Gisell's Advice
The best way to reduce the effects of humidity on dry hair is by using specific products for dry hair, including hair serums and leave-in conditioners. It can be the time to leave hair rest of heat and wear natural. Redken has a great hair line products just for curls anti frizz.

Review on Sun Chlorella Cream

ALL NATURE'S PERFECT SUPERFOOD






I am here to review this amazing lotion. It has natural ingredients and it gives total moisture to the face. It has a light, minty color and it has a light to med texture. What I love about it is that it leaves a glow on the skin for couple of hours. I personally recommended right after a nice warm shower because it has a nice, soft aromatherapy of a smell. You can also carry with you for your next facial appointment. After 5 days of using it daily my skin feels tighter and clearer.

The Sun Chlorella Cream (retail value $75) is a nourishing blend of natural ingredients that fights aging (or reverses it) and keeps your skin moisturized and glowing. Quick fun tip: Men can use the cream as an aftershave. For more details, images and more, please visit the Sun Chlorella's official website.

It is Paraben, propylene glycol free. It has antioxidants to help for healthy skin. Please visit the site for more wonderful vitamins and fine products.

Is your hair CLEAR like crystal CLEAR with CLARIFYING shampoo?


Clarifying Shampoo Benefits:

  • Clarifying shampoo ensures the removal of product build-up that comes with using styling gels, mousse and hair spray.
  • Make sure about use of clarifying shampoo after swimming to get rid of the mineral and chemical build up in the hair such as chlorine. Read my post about CHLORINE
  • Shampoos and other hair styling products leave residue to the hair that will make it look flat. The product build-up must be washed out of the hair at least once a month with clarifying shampoo.
  • I also recommend this before any chemical service 2 days prior to service.
One of my favorites Clarifying Shampoos by Paul Mitchell

Sun and Pools will damage hair in the Summer




SUN IS A BALL OF FIRE~!


 Sun is the cause of many bad things. Even though it is many people do not take the proper precautions before tannning, not using hats or even not protecting their children. I recommend no sun at all but if you must wear sunscreen. Protection for your hair is a must. Wear hats especially at the beach. Sun can really burn your hair. There are also many products that have sunscreen protection in them like for example:

 Redken’s UV Rescue Shimmering Defense is a creamy, citrus scented potion that leaves a shiny shield on your locks to protect against color dehydration and drying sun rays.





What about pools? God knows I can be all day in the pool with a glass of wine ok well many glasses of wine. Chlorine is what I want to talk about. Chlorine is a chemical that inside the pool for sanitary purposes, but it is also very damaging for the hair. I am posting a few good hair tips that you can follow for more healthier hair before the pool.

  • wet hair before entering pool with leave in conditioner - this will help prevent hair from soaking up the harsh, chlorinated pool water.
  • you can wear a cap. I know they are not cute. You can thank me later though ;) lol
  • Shampoo your hair as soon as you get out the pool. This will help to remove most of the chlorine before it can do great damage. * A clarifying shampoo is not necessary unless a green hue is on your hair.
  • last but not least maintaining hair trimmed 4 to 8 weeks is ideal! I can cut it for you just call me for an appointment!
  • Bonus Remeber there are no cure for split ends besides cutting it off. So let's take care of our hair ladies.

Finley Hair Powder Review



It comes in 4 shades and $18 a bottle.
 
I am excited to blog about this product because of one reason  only. I love products that do what  they say they do! Simple as that. You know after 2 or 3 days of you last hair wash your hair starts getting oily? Well there may be some days you just either to tired to wash and redo your hair or you got a last minute invite. If that is the case then you must use this product for in between shampoos.

 Like I say "Just one more day"

How to use: It is a powder that you use directly on your hair from the bottle atleast an inch away from scalp and brush away. It revives dull and oily hair in between washes. Hair looks fresh for just one more day ;)
 
1. black
2. brunnette
3. blonde
4. white.
