Borghese and ManiGlovz…The perfect Combo

 

With all the warnings over the years informing us about harmful  UV rays, I am constantly on alert regarding sunscreen and making sure my skin is protected. I really didn’t give my hands much thought as I exposed them to LED lights every 3 weeks at the nail salon. Well, that has changed. ManiGlovz has changed the way I think about my hands. 

ManiGlovz® was developed to protect our hands against harmful Ultra Violet/LED lights. ManiGlovz developed a  powerful UPF 50+ material and an array of fab and fun prints to create this ultra-chic collection of UV Protective Manicure Gloves.  They are fun and you will be the talk of the nail salon, everyone will want a pair. Remember they are Maniglovz!

Borghese has teamed up with ManiGlovz and they are offering a fabulous gift set at a fabulous price!  $72 regular price for the set… now $55.00 for the set.

The set features a full-sized Borghese Fango Uniforme Brightening Mud Mask for Face and Body and ManiGlovz, a glove that acts as a UPF 50+ UV blocking protectant to wear while driving and also a shield against the harmful UV and LED rays during gel manicures or the drying lamps during regular manicures.

“In an effort to raise awareness about the harmful effects of UV exposure, 10% of proceeds up to a maximum donation of $2,750 from this limited edition set during the month of September 2019 will go to the Skin Cancer Foundation, the only global organization solely devoted to the prevention, early detection and treatment of skin cancer.”   The set an be found at Fango Uniforme Brightening Mud Mask

Don’t let the black mask fool you, it’s fantastic. It’s rich, thick and gets the job done. Fango Uniforme Brightening Mud Mask is a paraben-free and allergy tested formula that helps brighten skin, even skin tone and increase elasticity for supple tone and texture. I use it in the shower. I apply it to my face and neck and leave it on for a few minutes. Just rinse it off with a washcloth and feel the results. This mud mask can also be used for your body avoiding lips and eye area.

Fango Uniforme Brightening Mud Mask    cleans the dirt and oils from your skin creating an even skin tone and fresh looking skin. This mud mask is Paraben–free and Allergy tested. Fango Uniforme Brightening Mud Mask  also contains some unique Ingredients:

  • Coffee Seed Extract and Caffeine team up to help invigorate and fight free radicals
  • Boswellia Serrata Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Betula Alba Bark Extract and Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract is a cocktail of good-for-your-skin ingredients that help even and smooth skin tone
  • Kaolin Clay helps to purify skin
  • Safflower Oil helps soften and smooth skin

Casely Wallet Phone Cases look great on the outside but even better on the inside

I didn’t think a wallet phone case was for me. I’ve carried a purse and a regular wallet for years. It is a bit hard for me to change my routine but I decided that I needed to simplify things a bit and by that, I mean a smaller purse. Well, my wallet really didn’t fit in my purse with my phone and I could not give up my phone.

When I saw the Gold Casely Wallet Phone Case I had to give it a try. The Casely wallet case was the perfect accessory for me, I can’t live without it now. This phone case has totally changed the way I carry my phone, money and charge cards. Not only is the Casely Wallet Case pretty on the outside, it is even better on the inside.  It is vegan leather with several colors and styles to choose from. The case acts as my wallet, holding 6 to 10 cards,  (I have 7 cards in mine), as well as a side slot to hold a few bills

Whether shopping, going to the gym or anywhere where I won’t need a purse or handbag, I just grab my phone and the credit Cards and money are attached. We are ready to go!  The case itself is very tight and I haven’t lost a card yet, they haven’t slipped out either. Casely Wallet Cases  have a strap attached so you can use it as a wristlet.  Say goodbye to handbags when you are shopping….Hello Casely.

Don’t need a phone case?  Casely’s got you covered. Casely has an array of accessories and beautiful, unique collections to fit your individual need.   Choose from wallet phone cases, regular phone cases, wallets and phone rings in various styles, prints and patterns. Casely’s  accessories fit many style iphones and Samsungs. Chic and stylish, bold and trendy Casely has it all.

 My favorite accessory is the Phone Ring

As stated by Casely, “The ring not only has the style that customers love, but it also has efficiency like no other accessory. This phone rings allows you to prop up your phone anytime, anywhere, and have it be stable.”

My Shed Defender is just what mommy ordered

 

My name is Tula and I’m a fluffy furry Golden Retriever. Apparently, I shed a lot, at least that’s what I’m told. What’s a pup to do? My mom got me a Shed Defender. The onesie I’m wearing is the  Original Shed Defender which  is available is 8 colors and 9 sizes. Shed Defender also has a Sport and Fleece Onesie.  Here is the scoop on it:

**Shed Defender is Machine washable

**It’s comfy and comfortable.

**Veterinarians are recommending it.

**Shed Defender is very easy to put on and take off, just ask my mom!

**Shed Defender has a snug fit reducing anxiety, It’s very comfy, I love mine.

**My fur can’t fly around especially in the kitchen when mom is cooking. It will keep the car clean too!

**It works to cover wounds, surgical sites, hotspots and helps with allergies and skin conditions. I wish I had one when I was spayed. It would have been much more comfortable than the cone I had to wear.

**The Shed Defender also protects my fur from the cold. You really have to try it to believe it.

How to Tame Unruly Brows

While most people desperately try to grow eyebrows in, there are those rare beauties that were born with bold arches, so bold in fact that they must be tamed.  Boom Boom, owner of Boom Boom Brow Bar, says the best way to tame unruly, coarse, curly, stubborn brows…the kind that tend to grow down and don’t sit straight, is to use a brow gel.

Boom Boom Brow-ssiere is a clear brow gel that delivers soft natural hold and sets brows straight all day long and strong without flaking.  “It’s a fast, easy way to shape and set your brows instantly. It makes them look perfect, in a natural way,” says Boom Boom.

Tips for Taming Unruly Brows

  1. Unruly brows tend to have to be cleaned up often, but make sure not to take too much off, especially between brows. If they start too far apart, it can make eyes look too wide set and brows overdone, keep/manage them closer together versus farther apart.
  2. Trim longer hairs, but not too short or a hole can develop. And, made sure to use a blunt end scissor for safety.
  3. Apply a clear brow gel by starting in the center and brushing brows up and out.  Gel is applied while brushing, so brows are groomed and set at the same.  It’s clear, won’t flake and brows are set straight!

Ingredients: Water, PVP, Triethanolamine, Carbomer, Glycerin, Panthenol, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben, Propylparaben and Imidazolidinyl Urea.      Boom Boom would never test on animals!  Retail Price: $18.00; Available on www.boomboombrowbar.com.

Boom Boom Brow Bar is 11 years strong!! As one of the first walk-in brow bars in NYC, Malynda Vigliotti (aka Boom Boom) empowers others to celebrate their own personal gorgeousness without breaking the bank or making appointments.  She makes brows fast, convenient, affordable and FUN – 26K+ served last year…376K+ since 2008!  She is THE brow expert for the International Beauty Show in New York and Las Vegas!  The New York Times loves Boom Boom: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/23/nyregion/23joint.htmlVogue does too: https://www.boomboombrowbar.com/press/; and Refinery29 named Boom Boom Brow Bar one of the top 10 spots to get the best brows ever: http://www.refinery29.com/eyebrow-shaping-nyc#slide-9.
