CANE + AUSTIN Brings Skincare to a New Height

 

Most of us who are skincare fanatics, know all about exfoliators and what works best for their skin type. We are all careful when it comes to our face. We wash our face, tone, moisturize, apply makeup etc. Let’s face it, sometimes it’s all about the face. Let’s not forget about our other body parts! Legs, arms, hands, neck, torso etc.

I have found a sensational NEW product, namely, Cane+Austin Retexturizing Body Pads. Cane+Austin was developed by Dr. Craig Austin  Dermatologist, whose products in this skincare line contain Glycolic Acid as its foundation. At their website https://caneandaustin.com/main/ you will learn the following,  “Derived from pure sugar “Cane”, Cane + Austin uses only purified pharmaceutical-grade Glycolic Acid comparable to a treatment in a doctor’s office. Known as the superstar of the AHA’s, our Glycolic Acid has the smallest molecular size (of any AHA) which enables it to work effectively both as an exfoliator and moisturizer”.

With that in mind, Cane + Austin Exfoliating Body Pads are magnificent. They are designed to remove rough and dry skin, allowing a much brighter and healthier skin to be revealed. The pads are non abrasive and one pad really goes a long way as I was able to use one pad for both of my arms, neck and chest. Cane + Austin Exfoliating Body Pads also contains anti-oxidants of Vitamin A, C, E and COQ10 protecting your skin against free radical damage. Cane + Austin Exfoliating Body Pads are suitable for all skin types.

For acne sufferers, Cane + Austin Exfoliating Acne Treatment Pads will work wonders on your skin. “A one step, easy to use, at home treatment that works to gently exfoliate the skin while combating unsightly acne. Specially formulated to help accelerate the removal of dead skin cells that can interfere with the proper oil drainage. Salicylic Acid 2% helps to reduce the number of acne blemishes and blackheads while allowing the skin to heal. Treats acne while delivering anti-aging results. For all skin types”. You can see for yourself the before and after photographs  https://caneandaustin.com/main/content/after  and you will be amazed.  As seen on theier website, It has been clinically proven that;

After Just One Week

  • 100% experienced a decrease in blemishes.
  • 90% agreed their skin looked radiant, luminous and healthy.
  • 80% agreed this treatment improved their acne.

After Just Two Weeks

  • 100% agreed this treatment improved their acne.

*Third party lab consumer panel test after 1, 2 and 4 weeks of use

EPILADY is the best for Silky and Smooth Skin

My daughter Adrienne was thrilled to receive her first Epilady. She has wanted one for a long time and now she is the proud owner of a Legend 4 Epilady.

Having used it for at least a month, these are her thoughts on this remarkable shaving appliance. “The only things more uncomfortable than itchy socks are stubbly legs after shaving. Waxing may get rid of the stubble but leaves a sticky mess. How do you  remove hair at the roots without getting wax everywhere?  The Legend 4 Epilady is a fully rechargeable epilator that removes hair at the root without having to reach for any razors or wax strips. You can use Epilady while its plugged in charging, or you can use it wireless. The Epilady will leave your legs soft and smooth without any stubble much longer than shaving, at least 4 weeks or longer”. “I like the fact that there is a rubber grip on the handle which makes it easy to grasp.”

The Legend 4 is Epilady‘s latest best selling epilators. The Legend 4 safely removes unwanted hair just about everywhere on your body, but please, Epilady warns Do Not use around your eyes.

Some of the Epilady Legend 4 product features, which I obtained from their website http://www.epiladyusa.net/epleclblatta.html include the following:

Legend 4 Epilady has a wide epilating head with perfect angle guide to keep you at the perfect angle for the best epilation and has 2 operating speeds; It removes even the shortest and finest hair leaving skin smooth between 4 and 6  weeks and with 40 tweezer discs delivering 32,000 tweezes per minute, how could your legs NOT be silky and smooth.

The Legend 4 Epilady also contains a dual voltage adaptor for use throughout out the world and is available in 2 color schemes, pearl-white and red. Your purchase of a Legend 4 Epilady will include an adaptor, perfect angle guide, cleaning brush, carrying case and instruction manual.

Why not try the very best epilator and purchase your Legend 4 Epilady today at http://www.epiladyusa.net/. You can also find the Epilady at many department stores like Target and Walmart.

Many of us deal with the chore of having to prepare meals for our families.

There have been many nights I have scrambled to figure out what to prepare. Imagine, having a meal ready with just 10 minutes of preparation time. Imagine, only having to clean just one pan instead of 2 or 3 which I usually have to do. Imagine, no cutting boards and knives to clean, the list is endless.

Each package of Contessa World Cuisine Meals are made for two and are cooked in your skillet or microwave in just 10 minutes. You will be amazed at the selection there is to choose from. Beef Mongolian to Sesame Chicken as well as an array of shrimp dinners. Contessa offers an amazing selection of meal, you will have a difficult time choosing.

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/.

Take out the “Drab” and put back the “Fab” with NIOXIN

 

Did you ever have one those days when your hair is looking totally drab? I know from experience that when your hair looks drab you feel drab. Let me assure you that Nioxin Hair Care products will put the “Fab” back into your drabby hair.

I routinely alternate shampoos and  Nioxin Shampoo and Conditioner are one of them. I recently added a few more Nioxin products to my list of “must-have” hair care products and Nioxin Intensive Therapy Deep Repair Hair Masque is amazing. I have never used a hair masque before and this hair masque not only provides deep conditioning, it left my hair feeling silky smooth and ultra soft. This amazing hair masque wiped out my frizz leaving me with soft bouncy curls. Nioxin Intensive Therapy Deep Repair Hair Masque works great on dry and color treated hair and helps strengthen the hair shaft  reducing breakage. I simply applied the mask to my wet hair after shampooing, and after 5 minutes I rinsed my hair and then styled it. The results were amazing.

Nioxin Volumizing Reflectives Volume and  Texture Creme is the perfect creme to use before styling your hair. Volume and  Texture Creme will give your hair just the right body and shine and strengthen the hair shaft against damage without build-up on the scalp and hair. I applied a small amount of this gel-like creme to my damp hair and styled as usual, briefly blow dry or air dry, either way, the results are fabulous.  I was able to achieve just the right volume and my curls stayed intact. Nioxin’s Volume and  Texture Creme is alcohol and PVP free.

 

Nioxin Niospray is the perfect complement to Nioxin’s Volume and  Texture Creme. This super hair spray is available in two holds, Extra Hold and Power Hold with BioAmp. At Nioxin’s website, http://nioxin.com I found fascinating information on BioAMP technology.  “BioAMP – Glyco-proteins add thickness from inside the cuticle and strengthen the hair strand, while Cystine Amino Acids work to seal the cuticle and help repair damaged fine hair”.

Nioxin Niospray will have your hair looking great all day long, giving your hair shine, volume  and texture. Nioxin Niospray protects your hair from becoming brittle and dry and is also PVP free. I saw results immediately after use and was very pleased. Nioxin has some amazing products for those with brittle, damaged and thinning hair. Take out the “Drab” and put back the “Fab” with Nioxin and visit  http://nioxin.com/en-US/home-page.aspx.

Danielle Caputo, stylist to the stars and NIOXIN’s  Top Artist shares with us her  Voluminous Hair Styling Secrets

How to Get Really Big Sexy Hair: Let’s be honest, every woman loves really big sexy hair once and awhile. You know that big, just left the salon blowout that makes you feel completely amazing and confident. Follow the quick and easy steps below to achieve the look without the salon price tag.

 1.       Start by spraying NIOXIN DiaMax at the roots, and add a dab of NIOXIN Silk Elixir at the ends.

2.       As you blow dry each section with a large round brush, apply NIOXIN Thickening Spray from the roots to mid-shaft.

3.       After you dry each section pin it up until all the hair is set in pin curls.

4.       Spray NIOXIN Nio Spray Power Hold all over the head  and let hair cool off for 15 minutes.

5.       As you take down each curl lightly tease the roots.

6.       When all the hair is down use your fingers to put the hair into place and reapply NIOXIN Nio Spray Power Hold.

Plan For the New Year With “Our Skinny”…The Tastiest and Easiest Way to Weight Loss

It’s that time of year when we are all trying to shed a few holiday pounds. Let me say right now that I am not a diet expert!  I don’t even like using the word diet, I prefer “eating program” or “weight loss program”. I do however, find myself being an expert on trying different eating programs. What I found out is this, it all boils down to exercise. I have to exercise every day and count every calorie in order to lose or maintain my weight.

In the meantime, we all have to feed our bodies and there are many ways to go about this. I have recently tried something new and its an eating program that I enjoyed thoroughly and found extremely easy to follow, it’s called Our Skinny and with the new year starting I think “Our Skinny, The Easiest Diet Ever” is worth trying.

Our Skinny was created by Dr. Paul Bradley and a team of Registered Dietitians at Ourlife Health in Savannah, Georgia.  Their goal is to help men and women with weight problems, lead healthier lives. With obesity rates on the rise in the United States, health issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, some types of cancer and sleep apnea are also on the rise. Dr. Bradley and his team created Our Skinny, “The Easiest Diet Ever” and it really is the easiest diet ever. Our Skinny is very easy to follow and at their website  http://www.ourskinny.com/ you can learn all the details on their weight loss program and order your delicious shakes and bars which will be your meal replacements for as long as you plan on using it. You will definitely be on your way to a new and healthier you.

In a nutshell, Our Skinny allows you 4 shakes a day starting at breakfast and drinking a shake every 2 or 3 hours. Add to that 1 delicious snack bar of your choice as well as 1 main meal consisting of vegetables, protein and a healthy fat. That’s it!  You will have 6 meals a day and you will feel completely satisfied between meals.

Our Skinny has 6 delicious shakes to choose from http://shop.ourskinny.com/category/shakes/. The shakes have between 70 and 100 calories and contain 15 grams of protein which is enough protein to keep you satisfied throughout the day. They are really delicious and I found them to be extremely satisfying without any bad after taste like some protein drinks can can leave you with.

The snack bars are equally delicious, with 6 varieties to choose from, http://shop.ourskinny.com/category/bars/, they will replace one meal. Our Skinny comes with a complete easy to follow program guide with a journal to keep track of your meal intake and water. It is so easy to follow. Once you order your shakes and bars from Our Skinny, you will also be entitled to a free consultation by phone or email at no extra cost to you.

What I like most about Our Skinny is the fact that you don’t have to commit to a full 5 meal replacement program. You can enjoy the products and still lose weight or use the protein shakes and bars to maintain your weight. You can substitute one meal or two meals a day if you choose.  The 15 gram protein bars and shakes offer great energy boosts and are also fantastic meal replacements. So whether you choose to use Our Skinny as your complete weight loss program or just use it partially, you will be heading down a path to a new you this NEW YEAR. Remember, Our Skinny, The easiest Diet Ever!

Our Stockings Are Getting “JUICY” This Year

It’s never to late to pick up those last holiday gifts. I have to say that stocking stuffers are always the hardest gifts for me to find and I always wait until the last minute to pick those up. As it turned out, my last minute shopping was a success. I found the perfect gift to fill a few stockings with, Viva La Juicy/Viva La Fleur Rollerball Duo (shown on left).  I couldn’t believe it, two of my daughter’s favorite fragrances combined into one, this is just fabulous.

Have you even smelled these two fragrances? I can see why Adrienne had a hard time choosing between the two, she just couldn’t decide.  The Two scents included in the roller ball duo are Viva La Fleur and Viva La Juicy and they both smell absolutely divine. Now she can have both scents in one beautifully designed rollerball.

I was captivated by Viva La Juicy Eau de Parfum. This sweet scent combines wild berries and mandarin with delicate playful notes of  vanilla, sandalwood, amber, caramel, praline and jasmine. It is a playful and fun fragrance, and I can see why the girls love it. Viva la Juicy La Fleur Eau de Toilette is a breathtaking fragrance that captures the feeling of love’s first embrace, it is a very romantic fragrance, so how does a girl choose between these two fragrances.  Well, they don’t have to choose anymore.

While shopping, I found another sensational gift idea, Viva La Juicy Rollerball & Lip Gloss Duo (shown on right). This duo holds the same fabulous scent of Viva La Fleur Eau de Toilette at one end and a beautiful shimmering sparkly pink lip gloss on the other end. Now I had a difficult time choosing between the two.

I have just purchased the last of my stocking stuffers with Viva La Juicy/Viva La Fleur Rollerball Duo and Viva La Juicy Rollerball & Lip Gloss Duo. It’s not too late to pick up those last few gifts and stocking stuffers from Juicy Couture,  I found mine at  http://www.ulta.com and you can also find them at http://www.sephora.com/viva-la-juicy-la-fleur-rollerball-duo.
