Other ingredients include, Peach Kernel (moisturizes, and great for sensitive skin), Avocado (containing vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E),  Camellia Seed (conditioning and rejuvenating), Almond Oli (moisturizing and soothing), Jojoba and Botanical (Keratin is a family of fibrous structural proteins, which contribute to the composition of hair.

This naturally derived ingredient helps to replenish the ideal keratin content for strong, durable hair)”. Of course, there are the fragrances of Honey and Vanilla. What’s not to love about this healthy and natural Shampoo.

Honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month with EMBELLISH

unnamed-4

Founder of B Fragranced, Marilyn Jones, lost her mother to breast cancer at an early age, and her truest and favorite memory of her mother was her scent. This led her to create Embellish, a fragrance that is as unique as the woman who wears it.

The essence of class, romance, and glamour, Embellish embodies all of the characteristics of female sophistication. Indulgent yet light, the fragrance infuses sparkling notes of apple and peach with a splash of citron. With B Fragranced’s mission to encourage women to embrace their feminine individuality, the effervescent notes of jasmine and honeysuckle balance the sultry base of soft amber and sandalwood to make Embellish any woman’s signature scent. Once the fragrance touches your skin, it will adjust to your body chemistry and enhance your natural scent in order to emit a fragrance that is simply your own.

This October, Marilyn is paying tribute to her mother with her brand. B Fragranced is joining forces with their official ambassador Christina “Brave” Williams, reality TV star of “R&B Divas” and Billboard hit artist, to spread awareness with a special limited time offer. A free purse-sized sprayer of Embellish and free shipping will be added to all orders with the code PINKFIGHT at bfragranced.com

For Brave, the fight against cancer hits close to home. The new face of Fragranced is currently persevering through her father’s diagnosis of prostate cancer and early signs of dementia. Brought together by fate, the fearless Brave and Marilyn are united by a product that they both believe in with a mission to empower all women.

Top 5 Rules to Wearing a Fragrance from Carlos Huber

unnamed-2

According to Carlos Huber, fragrance developer and creator of Arquiste, you may possibly be wearing your fragrance wrong. Depending on your mood or the occasion, whether it’s a special event or just a normal day, you must choose the right fragrance for you. Carlos has 5 helpful rules to wearing a fragrance.

Top 5 Rules of Wearing a Fragrance

1. Don’t rub your wrists together. Rubbing your wrists together may bruise the scent molecules, smashing them all down instead of letting them lift off your skin naturally.

2. Splurge on scents that you can wear daily– and on the ones that are special occasions. Quality is quality always!

3. Less is more…and more is more. Depending on what you prefer! There are no written rules.

4. Throw out fragrances when they are more than 3 years old, as their scent can turn and change. Normally a scent kept in stable temperatures and away from light will keep nicely between 2 -3 years.

5. Wear what defines YOU! Don’t let the occasion be the only thing dictating what you may or may not wear.

Carlos likes to wear his new Nanban Fragrance on a day-to-day basis as it makes him feel confident and remembered. Containing ingredients such as black pepper, Persian Saffron, coffee absolute, and Spanish leather, Nanban makes you stand out in a very unique way.

Treat your hair to the very best with Conair Brushes

When your hair looks like this

IMG_1368

You really need this: a Conair Detangle Brush for wet or dry hair

Unknown

I can’t live without my  Conair Detangle Hair brush. As you can see, I have very curly hair. Att night, when I brush my hair out, I no longer have the feeling of my hair being ripped out of my head. The bristles on the Conair Detangler are so soft that it makes brushing my hair out easy and pain free. The bristles smooth over the tangles and curls and after a few strokes, the bristles brush right through my hair.

The Conair Detangle Hair brush is designed for use with wet or dry hair and it detangles wet hair so easily which is why I love this brush so much. I once read that it is not a good idea to comb or brush you hair out when wet because of breakage. I find that with my hair texture, I have to brush out when wet. I find that this brush has been nothing but gentle on my hair and there are no signs ogf breakage or split ends. As soon as I notice, I will let you know.

You can find this fabulous brush at drugstores and retailers nationwide or at conair.com

IMG_1370

 

My daughter is heading back to school with Jose Eber! Well, not exactly with José Eber but with his  Protégé 19mm Clipless Curling Iron.  Jose Eber has designed a clipless curling iron that works to perfection. This amazing curling iron from Jose Eber’s Pro Series creates any type of curl you desire. It’s so easy to use and with the heat resistant glove (included) you will never burn your fingers.  Simply wrap a piece of hair around the barrel starting at the base toward the tip and hold for a few seconds. You will see how easy it is to create stunning curls. My daughter recently created a hairstyle using the clipless curling iron and she loved it. You will never have a creased edge again with this clipless curling iron.

The José Eber Protégé 19mm Clipless Curling Iron has some fabulous features: an Advanced Coted non-stick barrel; Heats up quickly, 3 to 5 minutes; Negative ion technology; it has even heat 100-240V Dual Voltage; and of course every curler needs a 360 tangle free swivel cord. You can purchase your own José Eber Protégé 19mm Clipless Curling Iron at joseeberhair.com

What is especially nice about Jose Eber’s curling iron is that the non-stick barrel allows you to use your favorite hair styling product without worrying about your hair sticking to it. Topganic Liquid and Sculpting Styling Lotion is the perfect choice, one that my daughter really liked. First of all, it smells amazing. Using styling lotion when applying heat to your hair is definitely something to consider. The Obliphica and Jojoba oils it contains provides all the moisture you need to maintain healthy hair after heat styling.

Topganic Liquid and Sculpting Styling Lotion is so easy to use. Massage a quarter size amount of the styling lotion into you damp hair (no need to rinse out) and get ready for an amazing hairstyle with volume, bounce and shine.

Miracle Revival Mud will have your skin Muddy to Glowing in Minutes

unnamed-11

I can’t pass up trying a new facial mask, especially if it’s from Sarah McNamara’s Miracle Skin Transformer line. I have used many of her products and Miracle Rival Mud lives up to the name. With a little bit of time, only 15 minutes, and a little bit of mud, you will have glowing skin. Miracle Revival Mud doesn’t peel off and doesn’t tighten your skin, you simply apply the mud to your face and wait for it to dry. As the mud dries imagine all the vitamins and antioxidants it contains, soaking into your skin. Some of the key ingredients are Manuka Honey, Green Tea and Mushroom extracts. Miracle Revival Mud also helps with your skins elasticity while helping to reduce blemishes.

Miracle Revival Mud is formulated with a special absorbing action helping to “unclog pores, deliver natural nourishment, eliminate dead skin cells and detoxify impurities. Skin feels comfortably refreshed, invigorated, and youthful“.

One of the things I love about this mask is as you rinse it off, an exfoliation process occurs while rubbing the mud in circular motions. The exfoliation is so gentle you won’t even notice it. The result? Your skin is left feeling soft, smooth and cleansed. Miracle Revival Mud also helps with your skins elasticity while helping to reduce blemishes.

According to their website, “Extensive studies have shown that this bioactive silt shows superior activity in comparison to Dead Sea Mud, Fango Mud and Moor Mud in increasing skin moisture, reduces sebum flow, increases cell turnover by 92% and leaving the skin feeling smooth and soft.”  I like to say, with Miracle Revival Mud, the muddier, the better.

Sarah McNamara’s Miracle Skin Transformer is available for $38 at Kohl’s  beauty counters and at miracleskintransformer.com.
