Keeping Your Dog Looking Just as Good as You Do

You love taking pictures, and you love to always be as glam as possible, and just because you own a dog doesn’t mean you can take a back seat and let standards slip, right? Your dog will love to be looked after by you, as well as you look after yourself. When you look after your dog, the returns you get far outweigh any negative aspects. So, how can you keep your dog looking its best and ensure that they are photo-ready all the time.

Good Food and Diet

Just like you, your dog needs to eat and drink well. Dogs of all sizes need to eat twice a day, and they need to eat food that is rich and full of protein. Cheap dog food that can often be brightly colored is often full of unnecessary additives and potentially damaging to your dog’s long-term health. Giving your dog human treats can be a big no, as things like cheese are full of calories that your dog doesn’t need. Giving tidbits from the table may seem like a good idea, but you are potentially doing more harm than good in reality. Feed your dog a mixture of wet food and dry food to ensure that they maintain a balance and ensure that they maintain a healthy weight.

Bathing and Grooming

A smelly or ungroomed dog never looks good does it. Similarly, an over polished and over preened dog can suffer from a dull coat. Striking a balance is important. You dogs fur naturally cleans itself over time, so it is recommended that you bathe them occasionally, which means you are probably looking at around once a month, or less regularly, unless, of course, they walk over or roll over in something not so pleasant. In addition to bathing your dog, you need to regularly groom your dog as they will have summer coats and winter coats, and if you do not keep on top of the hair you will end up with lots of excess hair around your home, which is not very glam or nice to see. Using a combination of a brush and a de-shedding tool will ensure that your dog both looks good and feels good after a regular grooming session.

Regular Vet Visits and Check-ups

To keep your dog looking awesome, they also need to have regular vet checks. Regular annual checkups give your vet the chance to look over your dog, weigh them and possibly even spot signs or underlying issues and problems. Choosing a vet that cares about your dog, such as those at kellycrossinganimalhospital.com will give you peace of mind that your precious pooch is in safe and caring hands, whether they are there for a check-up or to get their teeth cleaned.

Often overlooked are your dogs’ claws and ears, and you must take care of these. Regular claw clipping and regular ear cleaning will keep your dog clean, tidy, and free from any infections, ensuring they are always looking their best.

Introducing Estala Skincare, launched by Esta Compton

Estala Skincare, launched by Esta Compton after suffering a horrific drunk driving accident that left her face destroyed and unrecognizable, looking for solutions for scarring. After 30 years of trying different plastic surgeries, Esta was left with facial scarring and on a journey to feel confident in her own skin again. She worked with dozens of doctors and tried countless products with no results. After discovering Dr. Elas and an innovative pharmacist, Esta started formulating unique anti-aging and healing compounds crafted specifically for her skin, thus a skincare line that actually worked was born.

All Estala Skincare products are cruelty free, with high-quality, natural ingredients, for both an acne and an anti-aging line, including the Pre-Op Kit, Skin Restore Package, CoQ10, Cell Repair, and Acne System. Anti-Aging is for puffy eyes, wrinkles, dark spots and scarring and The Acne helps with acne treatment, acne scarring, breakouts, and hormonal acne.

The CoQ10 is a powerful wrinkle defense cream that works as a hydrating antioxidant, reducing fine lines, preventing future wrinkles, and increasing blood flow, stimulating cell renewal and penetrating dehydrated skin cells with a burst of hydration, repairing and preventing signs of aging, while also activating collagen-building properties to improve surface smoothness and elasticity.

The Cell Repair Serum is an anti-aging serum that replenishes skin, retains moisture, and injects an intense burst of lasting hydration. Formulated to enhance firmness and elasticity, the Cell Repair Serum is irritation-free and suitable for all skin types, even the sensitive kind.

She says, “After years of surgery I could barely even take photos with my family.  Once I had my final surgery with Dr. Elias, my face was complete, but the scarring and damage would take time. Working with Dr. Elias and pharmacists, I was able to see my skin healing. When people started to compliment my appearance and my youthful glow, I knew that these creams could help others. Everything I sell is designed specifically to improve skin conditions that do not respond well to other treatments. All of my products are made in small batches.”

Celebrate Pride Month w/ Beauty Looks by Lillee Jean, Famous Youtuber

Lillee Jean unveils the secret to get the look below:

Step 1: Good skincare prep is key to a great makeup look. LJ is partial to using SOLVED Skincare Jojoba Oil for an allnatural glow. Other skin care products used: REN Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream and Alpyn Beauty PlantGenius® Line-Filling Eye Balm with Bakuchio.

Step 2: Choose rainbow colors from comparable palettes. LJ says, “Pride is something that should be celebrated and embraced. The idea behind the makeup look is to be happy with who you are and celebrate any differences you have.”

Step 3: The look requires false eyelashes, but if you are not proficient in putting them on, a good coating of mascara will do the trick. 

Step 4: Use rhinestones that are makeupgrade on your eyes. Her eye makeup relies on, for the most part, drugstore brands, like Wet n Wild, Essence and LA Girl for the happy joyful effect she created.

Step 5: Her smooth skin was attained by using Urban Decay’s Prince All Nighter Waterproof Setting Powder. 

Step 6: Her lips are a combination of Smith & Cult as a shiny overtopping and Wet ‘n Wild’s matte lipstick called Skin-ny Dipping. You should use a neutral tone on the lips to bring out the imagery of the rainbow effect on the eyes.

She continues, “The world would be a very boring place if we were all the same.” She recently identified herself to her fans as pansexual and uses the pronouns she/her.

How to Buy Fine Jewelry, Setting, and Clasps

 

Ah, the world of fine jewelry. Part bazaar, part heist, and all sorts of fun. So what makes a piece of jewelry fine? Is it the diamond’s shape or carats? The setting or clasp? Where to buy earrings in Melbourne? When it comes to jewelry, the key step is allowing the prospective buyer to take their time and thoroughly examine each piece. A gemstone’s beauty and value often come from its cut, clarity, color, and carat, but flaws in the setting or clasp can diminish its fine jewelry value. 

Have you ever thought about buying Fine Jewelry only to become overwhelmed by all the different types of settings and clasps available? Just getting these terms straight can be confusing enough for a beginner. On top of that, there are also a lot of options for fine jewelry. Learning how to buy jewelry from a store or directly from a manufacturer is very different. Knowing how to shop for fine jewelers takes time and practice.

Earrings

The best thing about earrings with screw back is that they have no chance of falling off unintentionally compared to earrings with post backings. 

Once you find beautiful screw-back earrings you like, you can check the backs by lightly grasping two prongs of each earring and trying to turn them. Even if one is loose, you may be able to tighten it up with a screwdriver on the back of a flathead screwdriver. Do this procedure with extra care so that the piece does not get damaged or come apart. If you find that both screws are very loose, then it would be a good time to take them to a jeweler so he/she can tighten them for you.

Interestingly, about 50 percent of women do not like posts on earrings and any other earrings with hanging ornaments. That is why a lot of jewelry manufacturers have tried their best to develop an alternative for the posts in the shape of screw-on backs.

So what is the screw-back earring? It’s a post-type earring backing with the securing element at the back of your earring. A screw-back earring has a tiny thread on the post that fits right into it. The result is similar to a necklace with a locking clasp, where you twist it to lock and unlock the beads.

Clasps and clatches

A clasp is a device to hold together the two ends of a necklace or bracelet. They exist in various shapes and sizes, with each one being useful for certain outfits and looks. Clasps must be strong but also easy to put on. A good rule of thumb is to choose a safety catch if you have a young child who likes to play with jewelry.

All clasps and catches of jewelry, both regular and safety ones, should be worked several times, on you and off you. This is how the jewelry will leave your hands as well as how it will come back to you. When the clasp is taken off you (I’m talking about the one used by customer support, for example), be sure it does not leave any invisible marks on your skin or break a strand of hair. Always receive a receipt with the date and time. And finally, this could not be complete without asking about the payment plan (you don’t want to find out about it later).

Hair Care Tips for Your Next Beach Break

We’d all love to have gorgeous beachy waves while we’re enjoying the sun on holiday. You might picture yourself with luscious, shiny hair that always looks fantastic. Unfortunately, the reality is often very different. Direct sunlight, time in the pool and the sea, and a seafront breeze often mean that after even a few hours on the beach, our hair is dry, brittle and broken. Oils from sweat and sunscreen might mean that your hair is lifeless and flat, and let’s face it, wearing a hat is never going to help with volume or shape. 

The good news is, with a little care and attention and some preparation, your hair can look great for your whole beach break. Here are some great tips to help.

Visit the Salon Before Your Break

The first thing that you should do is prepare your hair. Visit julia-lampard.co.uk to book an appointment with a stylist before you go. Make sure you have at least a good trim to remove all dead ends and breakages. Then, spend time caring for your hair. Make sure you are using heat defence treatments and use a deep conditioner once a week for a month before your break to make sure your hair is in its best condition before you head to the beach. 

Use Coconut Oil After a Day in the Sun

A simple coconut oil mask is the best after-sun hair conditioner. Like putting after-sun on your skin, coconut oil adds moisture to dry strands. When you get back to your room after a day in the sun, coat your hair in coconut oil and wrap it in a towel. Leave for as long as you can before washing out thoroughly. 

Rinse Before Getting Wet

Wet hair doesn’t absorb as much salt or chlorine as dry hair. Before getting in the pool or the sea, make sure you rinse your hair. Your follicles will soak up the clean water, instead of the salt or chlorine. 

But Don’t Get Wet More Than You Need To

That said, repeatedly wetting your hair is bad for it. Rinse with clean water if you know that it’s going to get wet in the pool or sea. But, if you can avoid getting it wet completely by tying it up, this is better. 

Practise Braiding

One of the biggest problems we have at the beach isn’t the sun or the water, but the wind. It’s often breezy by the sea, and we’re running around without thinking about our hair. This leaves it tangled and causes breakages. Boho beachy braids look great and prevent too many tangles. French or Dutch braids that are tight to your head, or a crown braid, can be the most effective. Just make sure you are using one-piece bands without any metal or other attachments, and never elastic bands. 

Other ways to protect your hair on the beach include packing shampoo and conditioner and investing in a good hairbrush that removes tangles gently and carefully without causing more breakages.
