Brush & dry easily with Goody

As a licensed hairstylist my job is to teach you the best ways to take care of your hair at home. Everything from to shampoo and condition down to properly blow dry. I have done many women with extremely thick long hair that seems to take forever to dry. They always tell me that half the time they just skip blow drying all together because of how long it takes. I can’t say I blame them. I have always had thick hair and when I was younger my mom used to just put it pigtail braids so I wouldn’t have to worry about it. With Christmas just right around the corner, the best gift you can give to those “thick haired girls” on your list is the QuikStyle Paddle Brush from Goody.

Goody QuikStyle Paddle Brush

What makes this paddle brush so unique is the microfiber bristles that help to remove water and dry hair faster. It’s like a towel and a hairbrush in one. I at times like to flat iron my hair and the whole process from beginning to end takes forever. Even though it’s short now, it still does. The other night I went out with some friends and was running a little late. When I got out of the shower I let my hair dry in the towel for about 5 minutes then took it out. I did my face and then went to my hair. I grabbed my blow dryer and my QuikStyle Paddle Brush then proceeded. The microfibers in the bristles were very gentle and helped dry my hair in half the time with incredible shine as well. Imagine that. Now we can get ready for work, holiday parties and dinner in a snap.

Mom’s & dad’s.. can you imagine blow drying your daughter or son’s hair in half the time? No more “OW MOM”!!! or “this is taking forever”. So give the gift of hairstyling ease this holiday with QuikStyle Paddle Brush from Goody. For more styling tools and accessories visit www.goody.com

What is Pantone?

Marsala… it has been named Pantone’s color of the year for 2015. This beautiful “earthy red wine” inspired color has made it’s way into many industries including beauty, fashion, paint and more! While Marsala has made it’s way into the world, I couldn’t help but wonder more about what Pantone is all about. After some research this is what I found out.

Pantone Logo

Pantone Logo

Pantone started as a commercial printing company in the 1950s best known for what is called their Pantone Matching System (PMS). It was not until 1956 when Lawrence Herbert (was hired as a part-time employee), creator of Pantone, used his knowledge in chemistry to help systamize and simplify the companies colored inks. It was then in 1962 when Herbert started running it as a profit and bought the companies assests renaming them Pantone. Pantone Matching System allows designers to perfectly color match specific colors to a T. It keeps colors separate to avoid direct contact with another. In 2007 Pantone introduced their GOE system which consists of over 2,000 colors in a new matching and numbering system.

Marsala

Marsala

As we all know anually Pantone produces the “Color of the Year”. 2 times a year the company will hold meetings to decalre the new color for the following year. We see them in makeup, paints, clothes etc. Our color Marsala will fill the stores before we know it. ( I will be doing a blog and video about it soon). Pantone is so fascinating to learn about and with so many different standardized colors we could be here all day. Stay tuned for more blogs on the new color of the year and check out www.pantone.com

Sparkling, healthy skin starts with Tanique

Its been said the key to beautiful skin is great exfoliation. It decreases the amount of dead skin cells and debris to reveal the beautiful, younger looking, baby soft skin we all want underneath. And especially with us who suffer from acne prone skin or love to get spray tanned, having exfoliation part of your skincare regimen is a definite must have. But when we exfoliate we only sem to exfoliate our faces forgetting the rest of our bodies. Now we can have beautiful, acne free, streak free tan with the Essentials Mitt from Tanique. Tanique Essentials Mitt is a full body deep exfoliation mitt that not only scrubs you from head to toe but can also help erase any “mistakes” in your spray or self tanner.

Tanique

Tanique

Launched in 2007 , Tanique has become one of the most saught after spray tanning salons and will be available for sales nation wide in 2015. Not only known for their beautiful sunless tans, Tanique also offers waxing’s eyelash extensions and makeup applications just to name a few. We know over exposure to the UV rays can not only increase premature aging but can also increase your chance of contracting skin cancer. Tanique wants us to remember, we only have one skin in this life time and we should cherish it. You take care of it, it will take care of you. I am living proof.

Not only have I suffered from terrible “pizza face” but I have always had back, chest, legs, thighs and shoulder acne. After using many remedies and gallons of acne medicated body washes, my answer was to just exfoliate. When I met the owner, Mia-Faire, at The Makeup Show in Orlando I told her my problems and also explained to her that self tanning has never looked good on me. The first day using my essentials mitt I felt tingly yet deeply cleansed and my skin was incredibly soft. After the 3rd and 4th time my acne started disappearing and I swear my skin was sparkling all over.

Little tip: when using the mitt on your face use it as you would a washcloth. The mitt does the work for you so you do not have to “roughly scrub”. Not matter what be extremely careful around your face even when not using the mitt. Our facial skin is extremely thin so be extra careful.

Tanique is excited to share with us that they will be “tanning the stars” for the upcoming 72nd Annual Golden Globes! So now you can get the beautiful skin from head to toe with Tanique Essentials Mitt. No tan is complete without great exfoliation and beautiful skin starts here! To see how you can get your very own Tanique Essentials Mitt visit www.mytanique.com

The life saver for the makeup junkie; The Beauty Butler

Are you a makeup junkie but yet always seem to lose your favorite makeup product? I know I do. Or are you always searching through your cluttered makeup bag and can’t find anything? It seems no matter how hard we try to organize, label and even separate our most used makeup products we tend to always lose them. Not only that but I have also wasted so much money on buying new products because the minute I buy something new I find the old product I had replaced. Isn’t that a very familiar story?
