OC8 Will Have You Looking Spectacular!

Whether it’s Valentine’s Day, another special occasion, a work day or any day, you always want your makeup to look it’s best . With OC8 Professional Mattifying Gel you will not only help you to look great, you will look SPECTACULAR!

Whether you are under the strobe lights dancing with your friends or sitting across from your “someone special” by candlelight,  your face  will look SPECTACULAR!

Are you ready to look SPECTACULAR? Before your begin your day or night, start by cleansing your face thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of OC8 and gently massage it into your skin (I usually include my neck too). Apply moisturizer and/or sunscreen and let the makeup magic begin. OC8  works wonders because it improves the appearance of your foundation especially  when dealing with foundations layered over oily skin.

The secret behind OC8 Professional Mattifying Gel are the ACRYSORB micro particles it contains to absorb oil on the skins surface. OC8 allows you to have shine-free skin with a beautiful Matte finish for up to 8 hours. OC* will not clog your pores, is fragrance and alcohol free and is suitable for all skin types.

Once you start using OC8 before your makeup application, you won’t want to wear make-up without it. You can find OC8 Professional Mattifying Gel at www.oc8.com

This Valentine’s it’s Willa Skincare for My Daughter

 

I found some wonderful skincare products that my daughter will love. Willa is the perfect skincare for her because it was created with young girls and teenagers in mind. 12 year old Willa Doss (who came up with the idea) and her Mom Christy Prunier (photo below), created willa because they wanted skincare that offered healthy, natural beauty options for young girls.

The willa line consists of 17 natural skin care and beauty products developed by girls, for girls, even for grownups like myself.  What makes willa so special is that the products are natural and do not contain any  parabens, phthalates, sulfates, DEA and no animal tested is involved. Aren’t we all looking the for best skincare for ourselves? Now we can have the best skincare for our daughters too.

willa is sold in select Target stores nationally, at Henri Bendel on Drugstore.com and www.willaskincare.com. According to willa, Faith Hill and her 3 beautiful daughters are fans of the line too.

Read what our teens had to say about willa at http://itsateenthing.itsaglamthing.com/blog/the-wonderful-skincare-of-willa

Your Face Will Be Aglow With BIORE

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, who wouldn’t want the best looking skin possible? Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser is just the product to help you achieve your most radiant look.  I can tell you for sure that Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser is amazing. I am familiar with the Biore brand because my children have used Biore products in the past. My teenage daughter wanted to try something different and I thought it might be fun to try it with her.

Simply wet your face before applying Biore’s slighly thick formula. Almost immediately after massaging Biore’s cleansing formula over your entire face, you will begin to feel the heat from the Biore Cleanser begin to work on your skin. It is NOT an uncomfortable heat, actually it was quite relaxing and enjoyable. Continue following the directions by rinsing off thoroughly. I don’t have an acne problem but I liked how Biore cleansed my skin. Biore Cleanser has a very light exfoliator which didn’t irritate my skin at all. My daughter found that with repeated use, Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser had her pores looking better, and her skin looking smoother.

According to Biore http://www.biore.com “This soothing, self-heating formula cleanses away pore-clogging dirt and oil as it helps control blackheads and prevent acne. Effectively wash away stubborn dirt, oil, and make-up with a powerful formula containing salicylic acid and pore-opening warming clay.”

Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser is oil-free and has an active ingredient of 2% Salicylic acid. When doing research, I learned that Salicylic Acid first appeared in acne treatments because it proved to be very effective in cleaning out pores. Salicylic Acid is also a fantastic exfoliant which helps with skin rejuvination.

You can have healthier, brighter and cleaner looking skin anytime of the year, but why wait? Biore Warming Anti-Blackhead Cleanser can be found at http://www.biore.com/en-US/biore-skincare
