Summer Bazaar – Cosmetics and Accessories

Well, it was another fun morning at Your Carolina with Jack & Megan! Host Jack Roper was missing today so it was all about the girls with Megan Heidlberg and Debra Capps.

WSPA-YourCarolina

Watch the segment here: http://wspa.com/2015/08/07/its-a-glam-thing-summer-bazaar/

Gerard Cosmetics has really become one of my favorite makeup brands and I just love their new Hydra Matte Liquid Lipsticks! We’re seeing a lot of the matte lip look in magazines these days and you’ll definitely want to try these. They go on super smooth and make you feel like you’re not wearing anything at all on your lips. And they’re called “Hydra” because, unlike other matte brands I’ve tried, they actually hydrate your lips leaving them feeling soft and supple, not dry and cakey. The beautiful bold shades (Serenity, Aphrodite and Mercury Rising) are perfect for the summer!

Gerard Cosmetics

I also showed Gerard Cosmetics new Star Powders.  If you’re looking for that extra special glow that celebrities all seem to have in red carpet photos, this is your answer.  Star Powders are cheekbone highlighters that can be worn alone or over your favorite blush.  And with names like Marilyn (for Marilyn Monroe), Audrey (for Audrey Hepburn) and Lucy (for Lucille Ball), they’re sure to give you that star radiance that you’re looking for.

Find both the lipsticks and powders at www.gerardcosmetics.com

Superstar Nail Lacquers

Speaking of stars, I also recently discovered SuperStar Nail Lacquer. Created by 25-year-old founder Ariana Pierce (a superstar in her own right), it’s a vegan polish that is perfect for anyone who is health conscious. Fast drying for on-the-go moments with  great coverage that lasts a long time, the names are fun and make you feel like a celebrity or the star and you are. Some of the colors that we love for summer are: My Stylist Loves Pink, Orangu An A Lister and Soho Chic.  And for Fall: Model Behavior, Starlet Red and Posh Plum.  All are eco-friendly and toxin free and can be found at http://superstarnaillacquer.com/store/.

Hard Candy Brand Eye Wear - Angel Face

Hard Candy Brand Eye Wear – Angel Face

Hard Candy is another nail polish brand name that many of us know.  But, did you know that they also make sunglasses and eyeglasses?  Available at Walmart, this “Eye Wear With Attitude” is just as colorful as the company’s nail shades and will take you from the beach to school or work. Megan looked fabulous in one of their sunglasses designs, Smoke and Mirrors and I loved Angel Face, an RX-Able optical frame.  Check out the many available styles and colors at http://www.hardcandy.com/accessories/eyewear/.

simbi

I’m definitely a jewelry lover, but these clay bracelets and hair bracelets from SIMBI, Inc. are more than just beautiful and eye-catching.  They also represent a very unique cause.  Company founders Lori Manuel Steed and Birgit Grossmann Coles set out to find a way to elevate the reputation of the country of Haiti and bring sustainable jobs and help (in the form of clean water) to those in need at the same time.   Everything from conception to manufacturing and sales of Simbi products is done from Haiti.  So, this brand is not considered a charity but an ethical enterprise to help and support the community.  You can shop for hair bracelets, headbands, bracelets and more at www.simbihaiti.com.

Pura D'or Pure and Organic Argan Oil

And finally let’s talk Argan Oil.  Oils like Pura d’or Pure and Organic Argan Oil are definitely trending.  What does it do?  The question is: What DOESN’T it do?  Some of its many benefits include diminishing wrinkles, stimulating skin cells, reducing  the appearance of scaring and stretch marks and creating softer smoother skin. It also provides relief for Eczema and Psoriasis, restores nutrient content to skin cells,  repairs damaged hair, helps moisturize dry scalp and stimulates hair regeneration.

This 100% Argan oil is produced using the highest standards in the industry. Its imported from South Western Morocco, cold pressed, unrefined and has no chemicals added. Its safe for all skin, hair and nail types and can be found at purador.com

2015 Swimsuit Trends for Every Body

Temperatures hitting 90 degrees or more in many parts of the country this week have a lot of us heading to the beach or the pool trying to keep cool.  But with such a wide range of swimsuit trends this year, there’s something out there to help every woman look HOT!  Here are some of the hottest swimwear trends for 2015 that I shared on FOX46 “Good Day Charlotte” this week:

Trends #1 & #2:  Flutter Tops and Tribal Prints

Fluttery, flouncy tops and tribal prints will be everywhere this summer!  My first model, Rachel Petsiavas, looked amazing in this fabulous Tribal Set from Despi Beachwear.

Despi Beachwear

Whether you choose fringes (like this one) or soft ruffles, these tops are a super cute way to add volume to the look of your bust without padding.  And they’re great for adding movement when you walk!  Also be on the lookout for fresh and bold detailed tribal patterns in a multitude of colors in women’s swimwear this summer.  Find this look at www.despibeachwear.com

Trend #3: Sheer Mesh Panels

Minnow Bathers

Fellow Glam Gal Elizabeth Colen wore this white hot one-piece from Minnow Bathers to illustrate the trend toward mesh paneling.  It’s a great way to show “a little something” while still being mostly covered!  

The Eddie Bather has a curved central mesh panel in front and is sexy low cut in back.  It’s fully lined and available in sizes XS-XL.  If you like a more sporty or athletic look, this could be a great option for you.  Want to add a little more glam?  Try some silver and gold jewelry-inspired temporary tattoos!  Get the Eddie Bather at www.minnowbathers.com

Trend #4: High-Waist Bikini Bottoms

image

Hannah Sailor showed one of my favorite of this year’s trends: High-Waisted Bikini bottoms. As you might guess, these are a great option if you don’t happen to have perfectly sculpted abs and hips.  But the Cassie suit from Cleo Swim by Panache really does look fantastic on a wide variety of body types.  Either way, this classic retro look helps create a beautiful hourglass figure and will have you feeling super confident walking around the beach!

Cleo Swim by Panache is the perfect swimsuit line for women who wear a size D-cup and larger. www.panache-lingerie.com/us/products/list/cleo-swim-by-panache

Trend #5: Cropped Tops

Crop tops are not only popular on the streets this year, but also on the beach.  On the street, they are meant to reveal a little skin; at the beach, use them to cover up a little!

image

The Kalos Crop Top from Guria Beachwear is a great example of this trend and Amanda Knolle looked super sexy sporting this look!  The top is made of high-quality swimwear material, but is perfect for wear in or out of the water.

Pair it with Guria’s cute matching crochet detail bikini bottoms (in American and Brazilian cuts) and a gold body chain for a summer beach look that can’t be beaten! Find this fabulous swimsuit combination and many other great options at www.guriabeachwear.com.br!

Trend #6: Sexy One-Pieces

Many thanks again to Guria Beachwear for providing the perfect example of my final beachwear trend:  the Sexy One-Piece. Brittany Bass wowed in this classic glam look!  The Favela – Plunge One-Piece in American and Brazilian cuts is an unmistakable reminder that the maillot is no longer considered matronly and that all sorts of women now realize that skimpier does not always mean sexier… Ooh-la-la!
