Spring weather isn’t here yet but the spring semester is! You don’t have to let the lack of sunshine get you down. Here are a few tips to help get the swing back in your step and to help keep you luminescent and trendy.
Let’s face it pores are a poreblem for many people ( get it pore problem?) including me. There are two spots where I feel like I have huge pores, but ‘Touch In Sol’ has this great kit that is called the Best of No Poreblem. This kit has a primer, a priming water and a priming essence so your pores will be no problem or should I say no poreblem anymore. It works very quickly and is easy to use. The primer is lightweight and makes for the perfect base. Using both the ‘No Poreblem’ primer water and ‘No Poreblem Prime Essence’ keeps moisture locked inside one’s skin all the while keeping pores minimized.
I love these sizes because they easily fit in my makeup bag regardless if it’s going in my purse or just sitting at my table. This as well as other ‘Touch In Sol’ products can be found at retailers like The Beauty Spy.
Treat Beauty is known for their moisturizing products and jumbo lip balms. Especially for their Marshmallow “Anywhere” Jumbo Moisture Stick. This item easily fits in your pocket and can be used all over to keep your skin soft and safe from the winter frost. One of the original Youtube beauty gurus and Makeup Artist Kandee Johnson promotes this item as one of her favorites for the reasons I mentioned and she said she often travels with this product. It is in a stick so you can dial it up and down and apply it quickly without getting your hands messy like other moisturizing products can do. Thier certified organic ingredients are great for every skin type. It is an effective moisturizer that smells amazing just like marshmallows and it is divine all around. If you are looking for a moisturizing lip product they have an abundance of choices from tinted, untinted and they all have amazing scents. Two of my favorites are the Candy Apple Jumbo Color Stick as it gives a beautiful red tint and the Oatmeal Cream Pie Jumbo Lip Balm with Colloidal Oatmeal since Colloidal Oatmeal is one of the best products for skin care especially really dry skin! However, Treat Beauty explains it best on their Oatmeal Cream Pie Jumbo Lip Balm page, “when you grind up oatmeal and suspend it in liquid (voilà, colloidal oatmeal) it becomes much more easily absorbed into the skin where it works its magic, the cellulose and fiber from the oats softening the skin and guarding against irritation and redness.”
Brightening skin can help make your skin feel refreshed overall and the brand Vitabrid C12 has perfected it. Their face Face Brightening Powder has sold over over four million bottles. For those of you who are looking for glass skin this product can help you achieve not just glass skin but mirror skin, the latest trend that is sweeping the beauty world. This powder is the easiest way to include vitamin C into your skin routine because you can mix it with any serum toner or moisturizer that you are currently using. It releases Vitamin C continuously for 12 hours right to your skin. I saw improvements in the brightness and radiance of my skin quickly. I found it very easy to incorporate and it worked just as advertised brightening my skin and making it look clearer while giving me a clearer complexion that is, as I have been told, glowing. I highly recommend it.
JCat Beauty has some wonderful products such as the disposable mascara wands. While they are disposable, I love to wash them after each use. The different types of wands also allows one to customize the type of wand you want to use as mascara They can define, lengthen, curl or define.
JCat Beauty also has a wonderful makeup silicone makeup applicator, that they call Siligo Makeup Sponge. It makes applications and clean up a cinch! Unlike sponges that absorb makeup, you don’t have to worry about using more makeup than you need. It is easy to clean off and disinfect. Their name stands for ‘Just Cruelty-Free Affordable and Trendy.’ They have many products that have the same if not better quality of the prestige brands but for a fraction of the price.
Glitter Dazzle Eye Topper is an easy way to add glitter into your eye look quickly and for a fraction of the price. Those layered on top of their Tripple Crown Baked Shadows, which is a collection of 12 individual round containers with 3 coordinated colors per containers,(that are very pigmented and glide on easily) look beautiful.
If you are having trouble getting back into the swing of things and don’t always have time to do your hair you might want to invest in a pre-styled ponytails from Insert Name Here that will put the swing back in you or at least put the swing back in your ponytail. According to their website they have sold over 100,000 ponytails. So how do the pony tails work? They are clipped in and also have an extra piece of hair to wrap around your pony and the faux pony to make sure your look is flawless. The first step is to put your own hair in a ponytail. Step two, clip in the faux pony. Step three, wrap the wrap around piece around both your hair and the faux pony for a slick and flawless look. Step four: look fabulous! They have a variety of lengths, colors and textures so you are sure to find one that matches your hair for a flawless look.
Health and wellness is on everyone’s mind, from hand sanitizers to well sanitizing, sanitizing is on everyone’s mind. One easy way to disinfect is to do it with UV LED technology. CHI, the well known hair tool/products brand has been expanding their products immensely to include everything from apparrel to sanitizing agents including the CHI Life Handheld UV Light Wand. It can kill 99.9% of germs in one minute! It is lightweight and very easy to stick in your bag or even a deep pocket and is even easier to use. You charge it by plugging it in. It is rechargeable and each charge lasts two hours and if you run out the battery it only takes 1.5 hours to charge up. Once it is fully charged, make sure the lights are facing downwards and that you never stare directly at the lights and slowly but continuously move the wand over the item. It takes one minute to disinfect an item. It can be used on communal keyboards, your purse, backpack, packages etc.
This winter started off cold and snowy but before you know it, we will be celebrating Cinco de Mayo (safely of course) with the sun shining down on your skin so keep your head up high and remember you can do this!
