My Aunt Loves Her Face and Now You Can To with faceLOVE

 My Aunt Gale tried and loves faceLOVE. Here is what she has to say:

Face Love is an amazing product. I can now say I love my face. I had a few lines around my left eye and mouth. A very small amount of Face Love does wonders.  The serum goes a long way. I only wish I had known of this product last summer before my daughter’s wedding.   We have the pictures back and I see lines.  If I had used this product then there would be a different face in the pictures.  I like a natural look and Face Love allows me to use less make up. I have always disliked that heavy feel of products on my face.     My advice to you is to get Face Love before the big event not after like I did. Then you will love your face in those big event pictures.

BAUDELAIRE is Your Answer to Solving Oily Skin

I have found the perfect primer. One that will leave you skin dry and feeling as soft as ever. Isn’t that the goal for people with oily skin? Baudelaire Primer and Mask is the perfect choice. Baudelaire is a 2 in 1 product that is designed for use as a primer and mask. Baudelaire was founded by an Australian designer and entrepreneur, Kimberley Baudelaire. Her goal was to find a way to fix her own skin problems and after a 20 year search she developed Baudelaire, a product which would actually treat the cause of greasy skin and clogged pores by reducing excess oil production.

When I first tried Baudelaire, I found the consistency to be very thin, definitely not the consistency I was used to with primers that I have used in the past. I wondered how a primer with such a thin consistency could work as a mask too?

It’s simple, I found a amazing video at Beaudeliare’s website http://baudelaire.com.au/pages/video which demonstrates in full detail how to apply Baudelaire as a primer and as a mask. I applied Baudelaire with a brush as suggested, and my daughter did as well. We we both amazed at how dry and soft our skin felt afterwards. Baudelaire definitely solved our oily skin problem.

Baudelaire can also be used as a mask simply by applying a generous amount on your face with a makeup brush or sponge, applying over the areas of your face prone to excess oil. Allow to dry and rinse off with warm water after 10 to 15 minutes.

Baudelaire can actually be used 3 ways, as a primer, a mask and as an acne treatment. Apply Baudelaire to your blemishes nightly until your blemishes clear. Baudelaire is an amazing versatile product, one that will be part of your makeup routine as soon as you try it and at only $18.00, what are you waiting for.

Right now, Baudelaire is offering $3.00 off your next purchase  at http://baudelaire.com.au/products/womans-world-readers-3-off   and expires February 28, 2013. http://baudelaire.com.au/.

The 70th Annual Golden Globes Signature Looks

So many looks so little time.  That’s the way it goes at The 70th Annual Golden Globe awards.  Each star showed off his or her signature look as they walked the red carpet.  Actress Kate Hudson turned the most heads with her elegant yet simple soft, voluptuous hair style courtesy of  IT&LY HAIRFASHION’S Purity Design Line. 

According to celebrity hairstylist David Babaii,  “I wanted to show off Kate’s healthy, shiny hair in a style that emphasizes her true Hollywood beauty. As the perfect “Muse” and my inspiration, Kate is my generation’s Brigitte Bardot showing off soft voluptuous hair that is touchable, glamorous and now Kate’s very own signature look.”

To achieve, David used IT&LY HAIRFASHION’S Purity Design Line that gives a natural, long-lasting hold which is perfect for beautiful results. David started with IT&LY’s Pure Water Drops Serum before blow drying. Next, he added IT&LY’s Pure Style Mousse Strong and used a medium round brush at the root area to add volume then switching to a large round brush to smooth and create soft rounded edges. After drying, David created a natural side part spritzing IT&LY’s Pure Volumizing Eco at the base for added lift and down the shaft for more piecey definition. For her sexy fringe he wrapped the bang area around a medium round brush spraying a small amount of IT&LY’s Pure Volumizing Eco again. With the blow dryer temperature on high, he directed heat on the brush followed by a quick blast of cool air to set. Gently he removed the brush to release the fringe. With his fingers he combed through and allowed the hair to fall naturally into place. To finish, he misted the hair with IT&LY Pure Definition Hair Spray for soft touchable hair with memory hold. Now everyone will ask, “Can I have the Kate Hudson look?

“Soft, voluptuous, healthy hair never looked more glamorous”, says David Babaii.

Jennifer Lawrence

The 70th Annual Golden Globes Starts Out With a Bang

It seems that the gowns and the elegant jewelery were not the center of attention at The 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards last night.  With hairstyles worn by such actresses like Julie Bowen, Isla Fisher, Kristen Wiig, and Lucy Liu, courtesy of Wella Professionals.  
 

JULIE BOWEN

Modern Family’s Julie Bowen styled by celebrity stylist Jill Crosby using Wella Professionals

The Look: Julie likes to feel comfortable and like herself when walking the red carpet, so Jill created a textured chignon knot that embodies her natural, yet modern style. Julie is wearing a one-shouldered gown, which balances this deconstructed hairstyle.

Here’s how Jill created Julie’s look:

1. Starting with wet hair, Jill worked in a quarter-sized amount of Wella Professionals Enrich Straight Leave In Cream focusing on the ends to infuse moisture and “bring hair back to life.”

2. Then rake through three pumps of Wella Professionals Velvet Amplifier to prime the hair, leaving it a smooth texture, before blow drying with a large round brush. While blow drying, focus on adding volume and lifting the roots.

3. Once dry, she then sprayed Wella Professionals Thermal Image Heat Protection Spray throughout and Wella Professionals Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Spray at the roots for added lift and matte finish to achieve the deconstructed look.

4. Using a flatiron, she straightened pieces of the hair at her fringe and underneath the length of her hair near the nape of her neck. The interior of the hair was then back combed for added volume. Fringe is side-swept and secured in the front.

5. Hair was separated into two sections and then pulled toward the middle of the back of her head into a knotted chignon, then secured into place with pins hidden underneath the knot.

6. The look was finished with Wella Professionals Stay Essential Finishing Spray sprayed throughout to set the style.

 

ISLA FISHER

Actress Isla Fisher styled by celebrity stylist Sascha Breuer using Wella Professionals

The Look: Isla’s gorgeous, glamourously detailed Reem Acra dress helped for a modern take of Veronica Lake’s iconic style, which was the influence for her soft, touchable iconic waves.

Here’s how Sascha created Isla’s look:

1. First, hair was washed and conditioned with Wella Professionals Enrich Shampoo and Conditioner

2. Hair was gently towel dried, and then Wella Professionals Elastic Energy Mousse was combed through the hair using a wide toothed comb to give the look staying power and irresistible definition

3. Blow-dry the hair using a large round brush and direct the nozzle upwards for added root-lift. Ensure the hairdryer isn’t too hot, which can cause it to dry out and break, giving you frizz.

4. Once the hair is completely dry, create a low side parting for added glam and section the hair into manageable pieces.

5. Starting at the front and working backwards, wrap sections of hair around a medium-sized heated curling iron and secure each curled section with pins or clips.

6. Spray the pinned hair lightly with Wella Professionals Stay Essential Finishing Spray and leave to cool.

7. When the hair is completely cool, release the curled sections, remove all the grips and smooth through with your hands to loosen the ringlets. Use a large soft brush gently brush through the curls to create smooth soft waves.

8. Add a few drops of Wella Professionals Mirror Polish Shine Serum, which will work wonders to add the right level of smoothness and glossy shine to your hair.

9. To finish, spritz Wella Stay Essential Finishing Spray for lasting but flexible hold.

 

KRISTEN WIIG

Actress and Presenter Kristen Wiig styled by celebrity stylist Alex Polillo using Wella Professionals

 The Look: “For the Golden Globes,” says Alex, “I wanted a little Rock n roll, slightly wild feel for Kristen’s hair. This style goes perfectly with her chic black gown and simple clean jewelry.”

 Here’s how Alex created Kristen’s look:

1. First, wet hair was prepped with Wella Professionals Extra Volume Mousse at the root and Wella Professionals Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Spray was applied to the ends

2. The hair was then parted roughly to one side, and blown dry with a small round brush

3. Next, two different sized curling irons were used to wave 1” strands away from the face, while leaving the ends free

4. Each section was sprayed lightly with Wella Professionals Stay Essential Finishing Spray for soft, touchable hold

5. After all the waves had set, a pea-sized amount of Wella Professionals Texture Touch was used to gently separate the waves

6. Lastly, spritz select pieces of the hair with Wella Professionals Stay Firm Finishing Spray for a natural-looking yet long lasting hold

 

 

LUCY LIU

Actress and Presenter Lucy Liu styled by Wella Professionals Celebrity Stylist Andy LeCompte

The Look: Lucy demonstrated “perfect imperfection” because there is a slight messiness to balance her feminine Marie Antoinette inspired dress. Andy says that for braids, it’s best to do it on 1-2 day old hair because it’s easier to grip and create texture vs. clean hair. 

Here’s how Andy created Lucy’s look:

1. First, dry hair was prepped with small amount of Wella Professionals Velvet Amplifier Style Primer

2. Then, Wella Professionals Ocean Spritz Beach Texture Hairspray was applied to create texture at the root and length of hair

3. A deep side part was created, and the hair was french braided down each side of the head and the two braids merged at the bottom, slightly to the side so the braid hangs over the shoulder.

4. Placing one braid over the other, the ends of the hair were then flipped through the hole of the two braids

5. Then, merge the two braids into one fishtail at the bottom, and use Wella Professionals Rugged Fix on the ends for a rugged texture.

6. Finish the look with Wella Professionals Stay Essential for a lasting, flexible hold

Golden Globes Recap

We all know last night was The Golden Globes.  Hollywood’s brightest stars dazzled the red carpet with show stopping styles that are sure to ignite 2013’s newest trends.  Famous celebrities such as Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba and Zooey Deschanel show off award winning hairstyles courtesy of  SHE by SO.CAP.USA hair extensions, that even you at home can achieve.

 

Clip-In Bangs

Still growing her hair out from her award-winning performance in Les Miserables, Anne Hathaway’s bangs are a great face-framing length. Since most of us won’t be winning an award for snipping our hair, an easy way to get this look is with clip-in bang extensions which allow you to instantly achieve this style without the permanent cutting. SHE by SO.CAP.USA now offers clip-in bang extensions in two lengths and multiple colors allowing you to look like Anne without the dramatic snipping.

 

Clip-In Extensions

Looking effortless as ever, Jessica Alba kept her hair simple and elegant with a side swept style. Achieving the length and volume of this hairdo requires a few clip-in extensions, bobby pins to pull the hair to the side and a curling iron. SHE by SO.CAP.USA clip-in hair extensions provide the volume and length, can be styled like regular hair and are easily put in and taken out.

 

Clip-In Ponytail

Zooey Deschanel’s nails get more attention than the rest of her look, but her perfectly coiffed ponytail topped off her look. Though this is an easy style to achieve, the best part about her ponytail was the thickness and that it stood out against her dress and pearls. Adding SHE by SO.CAP.USA’s clip-in ponytail extension will add the volume needed to achieve Zooey’s style and modernize this classic style.
