Its always FABULOUS with Jorge

Welcome to “all things fabulous” with Jorge! Jorge Alvarado is the host/ producer and creator of The Jorge Show, a variety talk show in Tampa, Miami and Orlando. Starting in 2012, The Jorge Show offers different segments with everything from “Hot Tea” segments, to giveaways and more.

But who is this Jorge I keep talking about? Jorge Alvarado is the son of a beautiful single mother who raised 4 children on her own. When he was younger he started modeling for JCPenny ads and would tour all over Florida with the group. He told me every JCPenny store you walked into, you saw him in the ads and on the walls. Not only that Jorge used to introduce Saturday morning cartoons and was a guest on the Mickey Mouse Club. When he was a teenager he ran student body president. Sadly he didnt win the first time around but then ran again the next year and won.

In 2011, after spending much time in NYC and LA, Jorge launched “The Jorge Show”. Shot in front of a live audience in Orlando, Jorge brings a sense of realness to his shows. After every show he takes the time to meet & great with his audience. He has interviewed many celebrities such as John Travolta, Kevin Spacey & has the pleasure of meeting & speaking with the Cake Boss & Tabitha Coffey. Now coming into a new season, Jorge and his team are actively working to make it the best season yet. I have to say it seems Jorge never sleeps because not only is he doing this he is also hosting & attending events throughout Florida. He is very active in charities such as the Animal Collition of Tampa, SHE Empowerment and more.

When I had coffee with him one day he said something to me that made me like him even more. ” I want to be every girls best friend and every moms favorite son”. That said to me this guy wants you to feel you can approach him with anything. If you havent I strongly suggest checking out The Jorge Show at www.thejorgeshow.com for info on what he is up to.

Smell great with a simple touch

Its Mother’s Day eve and you need a last minute gift? Don’t worry the perfect gift is right at your local supermarket or drugstore. Caress’ new Fine Fragrance body wash will give mom a beautiful 12 hour fragrance every time she touches her skin. Yes that’s right. Just by touching your skin, Caress will activate the scent.

Caress

Caress

Last Monday while waiting to go on Studio 10, I was sitting in the green room and kept wondering where this smell was coming from. Forgetting I had used it this morning I kept thinking that my perfume was just overly strong. I then realized that it was the Caress. I couldn’t believe it. The more I crossed my arms or legs the stronger it was. Good thing about it was that it wasn’t so over powering that it was bad. It gives off just the right amount and lasts for 12 hours!

Imagine having an “implanted” fragrance in your skin for 12 hours that does not need to be redone. All you have to do is touch your skin and off it goes. The one I tried was the Amore Forever. It is a very light musky scent but has a hint of roses making it all the more pleasing. I know my mom loves it because she tried it and nearly stole it from me lol. I’m no meanie though I let her use it when she wants to.

So don’t sweat a great gift for mom. Caress has you covered. Its a gift that will keep on giving and I’m sure mom will love it. For more info check out www.houseofcaress.com

Met Gala: Olivia Wilde hair how to

Olivia Wilde Looks Striking at Met Gala with a Simple, Smooth Hairstyle

olivis wilde

Olivia Wilde looks stunning on the red carpet tonight in a Prada gown for the 2015 Met Gala. Celebrity hair stylist, Ben Skervin, wanted to accentuate her style with a beautiful headband knotted in grey silk. “I wanted to keep the hair slick and simple, but I also liked the idea of keeping it graphic.” See below for steps from Ben on how to get Olivia’s look using Goldwell.

Skervin applied the Goldwell Style Sign Naturally Full Bodifying Blowdry & Finish Spray which not only helped add thickness to the hair, but it also created the beautiful, satin smooth finish that he needed to achieve with this style.

Once the hair was dry, Skervin then used a straightening iron to get the hair pin straight. He parted the hair down the center and used the Goldwell Style Sign Big Finish Volume Hairspray to smooth down the baby hairs around the hair line and along the part.

Lastly, Skervin added the headband and did one final straightening with the irons over the ends of the hair. He used a small amount of the Goldwell Elixir Versatile Oil Treatment on the very ends of the hair for smoothness. And then finally, he applied a small amount of additional hair spray to keep everything in place

Dakota Johnson red carpet hair how to

Dakota Johnson Dazzles in 50 Shades of Sequins at Met Ball 2015

Dakota Johnson took the red carpet by storm in her sequined mini dress at this year’s Met Gala. The Chinese themed ball inspired the short Chanel mini dress. For Dakota’s look, celebrity hairstylist, Jen Atkin, styled a short wavy bob on the actress, which is quite a change from the star’s usual long haired looks. See below for steps from Jen on how to get Dakota’s look using KMS California.

Jen created this look by first prepping Dakota’s wet hair with KMS California ADDVOLUME volumizing spray to provide heat protection and boost volume in her hair. She then scrunched sections of the hair and clipped with duckbill clips all around head to create an S-shaped pattern.

Jen blew the hair dry with a GHD dryer using her fingers while keeping the clips intact. Afterwards, she removed the clips and curled 1’’ sections of hair alternating between a 1″ flat iron to create waves and a 1 1/4″ GHD curling iron, while keeping the ends straight.

Next, she rubbed KMS California HAIRPLAY messing creme between each section.

Hair this & that on Studio 10

Today I share some “Hair This and Hair That” on Studio 10.

Just like our skincare routine our haircare routine should be changed with the upcoming summer months. Here are a few tips to change up your haircare routine for beautiful, soft, healthy hair all through the summer.

Like the oils in your skin, the oils in your scalp can speed up in the summer causing excess buildup and the clogging of the hair follicles. Beautiful hair starts with shampoo and conditioner. Treatment shampoos and conditioners like Pura d’or Organic Shampoos and Conditioners come in a variety of options from hair loss treatments, to scalp dandruff treatments. When the follicles (which are like pores) get clogged it can cause your hair to look dull, and dirty. Be sure to use the right shampoo and conditioning products during the summer months.

Also, just like our skin, our hair needs protection from the harmful UV rays. Especially if your hair is color treated. When going outside to the beach or just to go for a stroll, wrap your hair in a cute scarf or put on a hat. When hair is color treated it can tend to fade a lot faster and can sometimes turn a little brassy. Hats block sun and are also great for protecting our faceas well.

We have heard of swimmer’s ear? But have you ever heard of swimmer’s hair? Thats right. As we know during the summer we swim a lot and when we can tend to get a chlorine buildup on our hair leaving that ugly discoloration of green film. BUT it not only happens to blondes. A quick remedy to take care of that problem is before going in any kind of water (salt, lake, pool etc.) rinse your hair with clean lukewarm tap water. Also, be sure to apply a coat of leave in conditioner to act as a barrier.

Summer weather is also notorious for creating frizz! When applying an anti frizz serum make sure you find one that is silicone based. The silicone in today’s products are more advanced giving it more access to the hair. It is also non greasy and micro fine allowing more particles to process into the hair. The more particles the more you can be sure the deposit of the serum is even throughout the whole head. Follow instructions on the bottle of how much you should use (usually a dime size amount).

If you have long hair, the struggle of the heat and perspiration can be a real drag. And when we go out, sometimes we don’t want to have to put our hair up. Baby Powder can act as a barrier as well. Before you put on your clothes or even do your hair apply a thin layer of baby powder to your skin, like the back of your neck, down your back etc. then finish dressing. You may notice that throughout the day just how much more comfortable you will feel. Also, the baby powder leaves a cooling sensation on your skin.

Fierce & daring with one spray

Intoxicating, sexy and daring! Lady Gaga’s newest fragrance, Eau De Gaga, will leave you feeling that and more in one use. Eau De Gaga is the future scent that will “appeal to both men and women where nothing is off limits”. (from HausLaboratories.com)

Eau De Gaga

Eau De Gaga

Eau De Gaga is unlike any fragrance I have ever smelled before. I usually don’t go for the “sexy” smelling fragrances but one whiff of this and I am hooked. With notes of White Violet, Sparkling Lime and Instinct Leather, the aroma of Eau De Gaga carries with you all day long. The White Violet is the opening note that intrigues the senses of both men and women while the lime exudes vibrancy and leather adds primal quality.

Also, having trouble finding the perfect gift for mom? Well, what woman doesn’t want to feel sexy? Especially mom! Surprise mom this Mother’s Day with Eau De Gaga. Its a gift that will keep on giving all day long.

I find it a little difficult to write about a fragrance, especially one that when its first sprayed gives off an incredible smell. The more I wore it throughout the day the better it smelled. Experience this amazing fragrance from Lady Gaga by visiting www.hauslaboratories.com or one of your local department stores and experience the fierceness for yourself!

Spray the pain away

Ladies I know you love your heels don’t you? But the pain of the heels throughout the day can cause our love to go to hate real fast. Inserts sometimes don’t seem to work, the balls of our feet are howling, and our arches just seem to feel like they may break in half. Now you can enjoy the sexiness of those heels, with out the pain, with Heel No Pain Foot Spray.

Heel no pain

Heel no pain

Comes in a discreet spray bottle, Heel No Pain goes wherever you go. Simply spray 1-2 squirts on the bottom of your feet before putting on your shoes and let it work its magic. Designed by plastic surgeon Randal D Haworth, MD, FACS Heel No Pain is a non-prescription spray. I can say from experience that this spray does what it says it does. To describe the way it feels I would say, after it dries, it feels like a thin film shielding your foot. Its a lot like those icy hot creams we put on to soothe aching muscles. It does not leave your foot feeling wet or sticky so you don’t have to worry about your shoes sliding off. Sometimes the impact of our insides needs a little help from the outsides. And as an added bonus the Heel No Pain spray as a nice clean scent that will help deodorize as well. Can’t beat a 2 in 1 deal! 🙂

Going to and from many events I tend to wear heels for hours at a time with no relief of being able to sit. two quick sprays before I put my shoes on and two more about 4 1/2 hours later I was able to wear my heels and enjoy the events without being in pain. My hips and thighs did not hurt either nor did my calf muscles. Now I did not spray those areas but taking away the pressure from my feet helped.

So ladies don’t bother carrying another pair of shoes with you when you can carry a spray bottle the size and width of your index finger. Your “dogs” wont be howling anymore!
