Did you know you can get a healthy glow and keep it with Australian Gold Suncare products? They have a sunscreen specifically designed for your face called Sheer Coverage 45 Faces Sunscreen. Not only is it a Broad Spectrum SPF 45 but it is also a self tanner. Now I can get a healthy glow in a very safe way and you can too with Australian Gold.

The Australian Gold signature fragrance smells fantastic and I like the results I am getting.

Epsom Salt, It’s not just for Soaking

0-48

Epsom Salt

Even though you wouldn’t think Epsom salt is popular among teens, it’s in fact very useful for us! It’s very affordable for just a few dollars and you can find it at the market or pharmacy. I recently received a complimentary box of Epsom salt and I actually used it for an exfoliating treatment. It was very easy because all I had to do was mix 2 cups of Epsom salt with 1/4 cup of petroleum jelly. I even added a few drops of lavender essential oil to give it a refreshing scent. I felt like the mixture scrubbed away my dry skin and left it really smooth.

Another recipe I used was an at home pedicure. I never get my nails done, I always do them myself, so I found this helpful. You dissolve a half cup of Epsom salt into 2 quarts of warm water. You pour the water into a container and soak your bare feet for 15 to 20 minutes. After that you just massage your entire foot with the Epsom salt making sure to get your heels and ankles to remove any dry or rough  spots. Lastly rinse your feet with water and dry them. My feet were ready for a great pedicure!!

There is so many more useful things to do with Epsom salt. You can use it for houseplants, Mosquito bites, and even a hair volumizer! I would definitely recommend having some Epsom salt at home for your every need! Check out facebook.com/epsomsalt for more great ideas and saltworks.us/salt_info/epsom-uses-benefits.asp Epsom Salt can be found in most drugstores and retail stores nationwide.

My favorite Epsom Salt Beauty Recipes:

Exfoliating Treatment Scrub: Combine 2 Cups of Epsom Salt, 1/4 Cup Petroleum Jelly, a few drops of Lavender Essential Oil and scrub and gently scrub away dry skin.

Exfoliating Foot Scrub: Dissolve 1/2 up of Epsom Salt into 2 quarts of warm water, Soak you feet for 15 to 20 minutes. Massage entire foot with Epson Salt to remove rough and dry skin, your feet will thank you.

You Won’t Find any Harsh Chemicals with Keeki, its Pure & Simple

 Keeki Pure and Simple Nail Polish

Keeki Pure and Simple Non Toxic Nail Polish Remover & polish

Keeki Pure and Simple Non Toxic Nail Polish Remover & Polish

Thanks to Keeki nail polish I already have my favorite fall nail polish color picked out. The name of it is Hot Cocoa and it will go great with my autumn fashion. Keeki was very easy to apply, and I started with cleaning my nails with Keeki nail polish remover. It does not have that strong acetone smell like most nail polish removers do, which is another reason why it’s one of my favorites. I then applied a thin layer of the base coat and when that dried I applied 2 thin coats of the Hot Cocoa nail polish. I finished it up by putting a thin layer of the top coat. It was very easy and dried within a few minutes. Another great thing is that Keeki doesn’t use harsh chemicals that dissolve the natural oils on the nail bed. It’s gluten-free, 100% biodegradable, vegan, and acetone free. Go to keekipureandsimple.com for more colors and products!

Shooting the Love Can Initiative Campaign

Today we went to Sir Recording Studio, a lovely building on Sunset Boulevard, where I shot a public service announcement segment for Love Can Initiative, a wonderful charitable organization that provides basic support for children from low-income families. The Love Can Initiative raises awareness about the socioeconomic conditions that foster poverty and child hunger in the United States. I am extremely grateful to have been a part of such a wonderful cause and deeply inspired by the work that Andy Tsagaris is doing to provide a better future for the children in need.  You can visit lovecan.us to learn more about how you can contribute and support the cause!

It’s made in the USA and it’s made without parabens. For around $7, you’ll step into the shower a little sweaty and step out a little sweetie.

Liberty Nails for Liberty Days

0-2

For this nail design I used Sally Hansen The complete salon manicure “Red my Lips”. For the middle finger I used a basic white and glitter from Duri Cosmetics called Icicle. And for the blue stripes and red heart I used thin nail art bottles that can be found in most stores. For the base coat I used Sally Hansen Double Duty which can also be used as a top and base coat. For the topcoat I used Sally Hansen: Hard as Nails Hard as Wraps Acrylic Gel + Nylon. This topcoat is my absolute favorite because it really does not chip for over a week. It makes the nails have an acrylic gel effect that makes it last longer. I did this design on my mom for the Fourth of July. I think that it’s a really cute idea for liberty day!

My hair is naturally straight, so I love putting a few waves in it for something different. I absolutely love the look of the naturally wavy beach look, and found that göt2b beach trippin’ saltinfusion WAVING SPRAY does a great job with that. The natural salts infuse voluminous waves that last all day. The great thing about göt2b beach trippin’ WAVING SPRAY it is that there is no “crunchy” feeling after you put it in mainly because of the moisturizing ingredients conted in the spray. Plus you can use it on dry hair, or wet hair, blow-dry or air dry! Get those beautiful  mermaid waves in the sun or shade!
