Brightening Finishing Powder ($50): Yeah, this is expensive. And yeah, all those pastels look a little wacky, considering this isn’t an eye palette. But one swirl of a fluffy brush over the surface of this radiant powder, and your complexion will be transformed. You’ll go from tired, saggy, sallow, and blah to perky, bright, and luminous. Swear! It’s a miracle in a compact. Dust on a sheer veil after you’ve applied the rest of your makeup and watch your complexion light up. Also, the pressed powder is infused with a skin-brightening blend of Mulberry, Grape and Scutellaria extracts and Sodium Hyaluronate (which is like a moisture magnet) to keep skin fresh, glowy, and smooth.


Sparkle Eyeshadow ($28): This new limited-edition gilded shade is in addition to the lineup of seven other shimmery, shiny shades.

#01 Silver Moon
#03 Ballet Pink
#04 Mica
#20 Cement
#22 Black Chocolate
#23 Gold Star Venus

High Shimmer Lip Gloss ($24): This is one of my favorite formulas of lip gloss, because the shimmer really does brighten up your whole complexion, without going anywhere near the realm of tacky. Available in 17  Shades.

Bare Sparkle
Beach
Bellini
Black Ruby
Bronzed Heather
Canary
Citrus
Electric Violet
Firefly
Hot
Midnight Violet
Naked Plum
Pastel
Pink Tulle
Pink Sequin
Uber Suede
Plum Gold

Extra Soothing Balm ($58): A great first step toward getting a glowing complexion.

Sheer Color Cheek Tint ($26): Sheer Pink and Sheer Berry. I have raved about the Sheer Pink shade of this product for about three years, and then they stopped making it. I’m still squeezing bits out of my old push-up stick, savoring the last morsels. And now it’s back! Honestly, my favorite cream blush ever. It’s so dewy and glides on cheeks so smoothly…it’s a dream.

Retouching Powder Collection ($36): This multipurpose powder does pretty much anything you need it to. It can stand in as a blush or bronzer. It can be used for midday or after-work touch-ups to refresh your makeup. It can be mixed with moisturizer to make your skin look extra dewy (in a good way). It also minimizes redness, soothes and calms skin, brightens, evens tone and discolorations, minimizes the appearance of fine lines, and gives you an overall airbrushed look. In Yellow, Rose, Peach, White, and Brown.

White: Brightens and illuminates alabaster to light skin
Pink: Counteracts sallow undertones in alabaster to medium skin tones
Yellow: Tones down redness in extra light to medium skin tones
Peach: Warms up light skin tones. Evens out tanned and medium to dark skin tones
Rose: Gives light to deep skin tones in a healthy flush of color
Brown: Warms up dark and rich skin tones

Brow Pencil ($22): I am officially a broken record: brows can make you look totally polished and pulled-together, or like a hot mess. If you only have 30 seconds for makeup in the morning, perfect your skin and define and groom your brows! Pencil is the quickest, easiest way to fill in sparse spots, and you’ll be amazed at how fully it pulls your whole look together. The new shade Brunette will be a savior for you darker-haired ladies.

Tinted Eye Brightener ($30): Dark circles? Forget about ‘em! This magic wand will whisk them away in one swipe. This is the product you ladies battling dark circles (myself included) have been dreaming of! For an extra punch, layer it over Bobbi’s Corrector to look well-rested, healthy, and utterly luminous. Available in 10 shades (listed from lightest to darkest): Porcelain Bisque, Light Bisque, Bisque, Medium to Dark Bisque, Dark Bisque, Porcelain Peach (pictured), Light to Medium Peach, Peach, Dark Peach, and Deep Peach.

OBSESSED??? A CONCEALER THAT COVERS IT ALL

OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS
 
The sleep-deprived, internet fanatic that I am, I’ve tried my fair share of concealers and it’s been trial and error on my dark circles throughout the years. Someone once described OCC Skin: Conceal as “Photoshop in a jar,” so I had to try it. The wonder product does not disappoint. I can be completely discolored in spots with irritation around my nostrils, and this cover-up leaves me with the most even-toned face I’ve ever had.
Intended as a multi-purpose skin product, this line fits perfectly with my OCC Airbrush Foundation since all of their skin products have the same shade range. I’ve been using their skin products for quite some time, so this made it a lot easier to find out what color I needed. I personally use two different shades as I need a slightly deeper, warmer toned concealer under my eyes. Just like their industry-loved Lip Tar, a little product goes a long way—so your face is light, clean and crease-free without caking on the layers. Thanks to this pot of gold, I go from worn out and fatigued to fresh-faced and ready to face the day.

Soothing the “Winter Itch” for your Hair and Scalp

Posted on by
1

Dry hair and itchy scalp is a common winter issue for many people.  As the temperature and humidity levels fall, dry skin becomes prominent, thus stripping the skin of its natural moisture.  This can lead to discomfort, not to mention, constant scratching and the disturbing trail of white flakes left behind.  If you are suffering from this annoying winter hair monster, then suffer no more!  Try these tips to help cure your winter hair blues…

  • Shampoo less often

Excessive shampooing can aggravate inactive sebaceous glands, consequently, causing dry hair and scalp. The lack of natural oils leads to hair that appears dry, dull, and lifeless.  Try changing your shampoo routine to every other day (longer if you can tolerate it) to allow the natural sebum (oil) to lubricate each strand in between washings.

  • Use a shampoo with moisturizers and emollients

When it is time for you shampoo, consider using a shampoo that contains protein, biotin, and humectants.  These conditioning agents restore moisture, strengthen the hair, and add volume.  Just remember that too much moisture can weigh your hair down, so you could even try a dry shampoo to revive your second or third day hair without looking like you just rolled out of bed.age_rf_photo_of_woman_washing_hair

  • Avoid harsh shampoos

The use of strong soaps, products, or detergents with a high alcohol content can intensify existing hair and scalp conditions.  Make sure to use a shampoo with a PH between 4.5-5.5 to prevent excessive dryness and hair damage during the cleansing process.

  • Condition!

You can also treat dryness by investing in a good conditioner.  Conditioners smooth the cuticle and coat the hair strands to give it a shiny look.  During the winter months, I would recommend a deep conditioner once or twice a week; however, make sure to find a conditioner that is light enough to use frequently, but still packs the moisture you need for your hair.  Cream rinses are a great choice for avoiding heavy buildup, when used properly.haircare

  • Reduce thermal styling

Most often dry hair is confused with overly porous hair.  Overly porous hair can be contributed to by heavy use of thermal styling tools such as blow dryers, curling irons, and flat irons.  When used regularly, thermal styling can add to the dry and lackluster appearance of the hair.  Try to minimize using heat-styling as much as possible; but if you can’t resist, be sure to apply a thermal protectant prior to using your heat tool of choice.  Also, take advantage of the cool setting on your blow dryer or let your hair air- dry for as long as possible to minimize the amount of time you have to use your blow dryer.

  • Try some oil!

When used correctly, oil can be a great remedy for dry hair.  One of my all time favorites is CHI Silk Infusion; it adds moisture, increases shine, and improves manageability.  Plus, it will help strengthen your hair over time, and improve the look of dry, brittle hair and split ends.  Place a drop or two of oil in the palm of your hands and rub together.  Apply before you blow dry and also when your hair is dry to make fly-a-ways disappear!chi
