It’s really fascinating to being able to peruse the new technology that is now available for us to care for our skin!

There are great new finds for anti-aging that intrigue and enlighten me, especially when their benefits are derived from a food source and provide such positive results.

Caviar has been found to accelerate “the natural production of collagen up to 67%!” Along with essential vitamins and amino acids working in tandem and “boosting” this action inside skin cells,”the aging process is actually slowed down by moisturizing the skin.” With a“light moisture retaining film” your skin then gets the defense advantage of from “external effects” such as:
• “UV Radiation”
• “Climate Issues”
• “Dehydration” and
• “Pollution”
When you are able to protect your skin from the detrimental elements listed above, your reward will be a skin that is less prone to lining & wrinkling, and there is also a real encouraging plus...Caviar is known to be effective without “allergic reactions!”

There is a new serum on the market called RG-Cell® that is right up-to-the-minute with it’s technology, geared toward keeping the skin firm with better elasticity, helpful in reducing the look of those fine lines & wrinkles, and yes…it contains Caviar Extract!

RG-Cell® is a clear light weight serum and will fit very easily into your skin care routine. If you are a detail person like I am, I highly suggest you visit their website : http://www.rg-cell.com

It is very easy to read and educational. There is a video and and area that addresses typical questions you may have. They also provide an “800” number for your convenience, and can purchase your RG-Cell® right on the site.

Quoting from their website,”RG-Cell® can be applied morning or night once to twice daily. Once a day is enough for most people unless there are problem areas like scars or injured skin that needs accelerated healing…then 2 times a day to those specific areas is recommended. Also if you have a specific even where you will be seen in public like a wedding, you might want to use RG-Cell® 2 times a day for a week before.”

I like the options available for using RG-Cell®! Being in the public a lot, I decided to try it 2 times a day for a week, and then use it once a day. As per their instructions, I cleansed, rinsed and dried my skin before application. RG-Cell® needs to be applied on “clean” dry skin. After shaking the bottle 5 times, removing the cap and “gently” squeezing the “bulb tip” dispenser, I applied the serum to my face and neck allowing it to dry naturally for a couple of minutes before I applied my makeup.

RG-Cell® quickly took care of that top surface dehydration that I deal with and that in itself gave my skin a more youthful appearance. I found it very light weight and easy to apply.

Once again, here is the RG-Cell® website:http://www.rg-cell.com

Check it out and read all about the ingredients in RG-Cell® including Caviar Extract, and their technology.

RG-Cell® might be just what you’re looking for to “ramp” up your skin care regime!!

When you talk about the “Golden Age” of Hollywood, Jimmy Stewart is right on top of the list of notables, to this day, who is still revered as an icon in movies that are timeless, and continue to be enjoyed by ongoing generations!

Jonathan Coe, the author of this beautifully illustrated book with 150 captivating photographs and well written commentary, takes you through Jimmy Stewart’s “forty-three years and seventy-seven film career as a leading man to a national idol.” Jimmy Stewart was the epitome of what was perceived as the “Ideal American Male”! A quote from Harry Truman really says it all! “If Bess and I had a son we’d want him to be like Jimmy Stewart!”

I’m so glad I have the opportunity to write a follow up article about BIOBLISS, and the chance to tell you more about their Anti-Wrinkle System! It’s the perfect companion to their innovative BIOBLISS™ Wrinkle Patch that I reviewed a few months ago!

This group of dedicated professionals with medical and scientific backgrounds who make up the team that created BIOBLISS™ have a very interesting and varied array of education and training, along with an impressive conscientiousness and desire to “Give Back”.

Each year, the month of May is dedicated to Skin Cancer Awareness. The BIOBLISS Team is supportive of Skin Cancer Awareness all year round! That really caught my attention when I first wrote about BIOBLISS, and I believe it’s worthy of being repeated in this feature, before we talk about their additionally effective and proven anti-aging skincare advances!

…Quoting from their website: “Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer. In fact, over the past three decades, more people have had skin cancer than all other cancers combined. On a more personal level, skin cancer has affected our wives, our parents, our friends and our colleagues. That’s why a portion of the profits of all BIOBLISS products will be donated to fund advanced skin cancer research at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School”.

The BIOBLISS Team puts that same commitment and care into their Anti-Aging Skincare!

Their well thought out products bring together a well balanced Anti-Wrinkle System! ~ It’s a skincare system for women and men of any age! It also provides a great defense in avoiding wrinkles, and has shown remarkable results without invasive treatment.

This BIOBLISS Anti Wrinkle System includes:

• CLEAN: CLEAN contains not only one of my favorite ingredients, Aloe Vera, but the refreshing and calming natural Cucumber Extract. Add Vitamin E, known for it’s healing antioxidant benefits, and you’ll get a nice thorough cleaning that removes makeup very nicely along with any other impurities in a gentle manner. ($35)

•SCRUB: You’ll use SCRUB one to two times per week after you cleanse your skin. It’s stimulating and will remove the dead skin cells, help with those clogged pores, and “soften fine lines”. It won’t strip any of the natural oils from your skin as it contains natural soaps originating from “coconut, macadamia nut, olive, avocado, and sunflower.”($30)

•Lock It In Serum: Your clean skin is now ready to “Lock in” some powerful anti-aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid that attracts moisture to your skin, Matrixyl 3000 peptides that help stimulate collagen production while strengthening the skin and help with elasticity, and Prickly Pear Extract that calms the skin and blocks the release of stress markers from sensory nerve cells in the skin. Apply Lock It In Serum in the AM and PM. ($70)

•HYDRATE LOTION: Here is a 100% natural lotion that is “TOXIN FREE” and you’ll use it twice daily. It has some very unique ingredients that:
1.Naturally relaxes muscles with Esculentes… A vegetable oligopeptide.
2.Nourishes and rejuvenates the skin while targeting the biological agents of cellular aging with Vitamins, Fatty Acids, and Antioxidants.
3.Aids in the protective function of cell aging, and restoring moisture balance and elasticity with Flaxseed, Evening Primrose, Pumpkin Seed, Borage Seed and Sasha Inchi oils. ($80)

I was able to try these products and found them quite effective in cleaning, exfoliating, nourishing, and hydrating, my skin!

Visit the BIOBLISS Website: http:www.biobliss.com for complete information about this BIOBLISS Anti-Wrinkle System and the BIOBLISS Wrinkle Patch.

As a professional makeup artist, I have a number of Mally’s “Bullet Proof” products in my professional makeup case, and in this article I’m going to introduce you to two new products from Mally’s Pro-Tricks Collection that I’m crazy about, and know you’ll feel like a “Pro” when you start using these products yourself!!

The two Mally products I’m going to share with you are:
• Mally Pro-Tricks Correcting Palette
• Mally Pro-Tricks Eye Palette

You’ll be able to multi-task with the Pro-Tricks products and get an exceptional variety of looks! We’ll take a look at the Correcting Palette first, and then the Eye Palette!

Let’s begin:

This is a great correcting and concealing palette! There are two palette shades available. Either Lighter or Deeper! Inside the Palette are 3 shades, a light tone, a medium tone and a deeper tone. You’ll be able to see the colors in both palettes when you go to the website link that I’ll provide later in the article. You should have no problem determining which set will be appropriate for your complexion shade.

Quoting Mally, here’s her “Secret-How to” for using the multi purpose Correct and Conceal Palette:
“To highlight and contour your fave features, use a sponge, a brush, or your fingers to apply the lightest shade everywhere you want to make something stand out— whether it’s your cheekbones, the center of your nose, on either sides of your nose, on your brow bones, on either side of your mouth, or in the center of your chin.Use the middle shade for your concealer underneath your eyes and on any blemishes. Finish by applying your foundation on top as you normally would, taking care to blend any remaining lines.”

With the new Pro Tricks Correct and Conceal Palette you have everything you need to do the contouring Mally calls “war paint to highlight and contour as you battle against shadows, unevenness, redness, and any other fierce enemies.”

It’s that simple….

Don’t be afraid to experiment and have fun! This is makeup and you can always remove it and reapply! It’s a process that you pick up very quickly, especially with a great palette like Mally’s! You have three tones to work with, and by experimenting with blending the shades, in no time, you’ll be hiding the dark shadows under your eyes, contouring & lifting your cheek bones, and sculpting your face just like a “PRO”. Keep in mind that a soft touch when applying the correct/conceal creams, and seamless blending will bring you the best results!

Mally’s Pro-Tricks Eye Palette is next!

This is a unique palette of colors to create your look for every mood, occasion, or new change in fashion trends!! From a natural, high fashion or trendy look, this handy Pro-Trick Eye Palette has it all…..and MORE! Take a look at the picture of the Eye Palette! There are 12 great shadows in a variety of colors including neutrals, bold, and always “in” shades, for you to choose from.

Now here’s the “Magic” of Mally’s Eye palette! The last three shades in the palette are called “Modifiers”! The top (first) color is your shadow base. You’ll want to apply this first over your upper eye area. It totally evens out the eye area, and as Mally always says, “it will allow any color you use to be completely bullet proof!” Once you’ve applied your color the second color will allow you to lighten it, and the third shade will let you deepen your shadows.

I’ve never had so much fun with eyeshadows! Using anycolor, you’ll be able to create the ever popular “smokey” eye look by targeting the crease of your eye and just a bit above, and then smudge a bit of shadow under the eye! You can then literally “lighten” or “deepen” with these modifiers right on top of the shadows to get the shape and depth perfect! You can also take a shadow up to your eye brow, then “lighten” right under the brow, and “deepen” in the outer corner for an amazing monochromatic shaded eye! Finish with a touch of the “pink” color in the outer corner of your eye for a modern uplifting look!

Here is a before picture of me without makeup. As you can see, my skin is pale, translucent, and has a lot of pink undertones.
Here is my finished look after applying Mally’s New Pro Tricks Correct and Conceal Palette, and Pro Tricks Eye Palette.

These are the steps I used to complete my finished look – With Pro-Tricks Correct and Conceal:
1. Using the light Corrector & Concealer Palette with a blend of the light and medium corrector, I was able to match my skin tone, and eliminate any darkness under my eyes. I then added an additional dot of the light concealer and blended it at the inner corner of my eye to make my eyes appear a bit wider apart.
2. With the same “Blend” used above, I applied it around my nose to mouth area on each side, then lifted up just a bit at the corner of my mouth with the light concealer.
3. I then used the medium Corrector & Concealer with just a “touch” of the light around my forehead, cheeks and chin. I carefully blended these areas to even my skin tone. As it turned out, I liked the look and didn’t need to apply any additional makeup. The deeper color is terrific. I used it to contour my cheeks and give a “kiss” of color around my forehead, hairline, and chin while always blending to achieve that “seamless” look. Adding brow color, a pop of blush, and lip color I accomplished a nice finished look. Spraying a mist of a hydration to my face for a fresh look, I then moved along to the Pro-Tricks Eye Palette!

Here are the steps I used with Pro-Tricks Eye Palette:

1.I covered my upper eye area with the top modifier to open my eye and create more space to play with some color.
2.Using the Monochromatic technique I mentioned earlier, I took the 3rd color in the first row of the palette, and brush blended it up an out to the corner of my eyebrow in a diagonal lift.
3.I then used the 2nd modifier and blended the color to lighten from the inner corner of my eye to midway under my eyebrow to achieve a lifted look and still keep a subtle shaping at the outer corner.
4. Going back to the top modifier with a smaller flat top brush, I highlighted under the arch of my brow.
5.Taking a “hint” of the first color in the 2nd row on the tip of my finger, I lightly touched the outer corner of my eye to get a subtle “Pop” of color.
6.I smudged a line around my eye with the 3rd color in the second row, then used the deepest modifier, lightly brushed over the liner, and smudged up slightly in the outer corners of my eyes.
7.A bit of mascara finished my look.

I can easily say that with Mally’s Pro-Tricks Correct & Conceal Palette ($40) and Pro-Tricks Eye Palette ($50), your possibilities are unlimited!

This was my first opportunity to try a skin care product from “PRAI Beauty, known as one of the most progressive proprietary luxury skin care brands in the world.”

I have a passion for skin care, and am always fascinated by the “story” of a company that has attained “Global” recognition as PRAI has.

Before I share the luxurious 24K Gold Caviar Wrinkle Serum with you, I’d like to introduce you to the woman behind PRAI Beauty, and mention a little more about the company and their well developed extensive line of products.

Cathy Kangas is the founder of PRAI. This multi dimensional “beauty expert”, is also an “entrepreneur”, “on-air personality”, and creator of “Beauty with a Cause” which helps animal protection causes worldwide.”

It was on one of her travels that Cathy discovered what would become the “exclusive” ingredient of the PRAI products called “PRAI Extract”, that through history was reserved for use by the ROYAL household of Thailand.”

The “signature PRAI Extract has numerous benefits and is harvested only every two years.” What really caught my attention about the extract is it’s ability to “improve the skin’s elasticity for smoothing, restorative, and anti-aging skin benefits!”

I couldn’t wait to open up the package when my PRAI 24KT Gold Cavier Wrinkle Repair Serum arrived. The product is beautifully contained in a very nice sized elegant gold pump dispenser, as you can see below!!

The information that came with the product said, “the Anti-Wrinkle 24K Caviar Wrinkle Repair Serum has “wrinkle-fighting peptides, Linefactor, and luxe 24K Gold that jumpstart the rejuvenation process and supercharge the skin’s luminosity.” It also stated this serum,“is clinically proven to take 10 years off your skin’s appearance.” Wow, now I was really anxious to try it!

I started using the PRAI 24K Wrinkle Repair Serum that evening !

Following the instructions for application, I applied the PRAI to clean and toned skin, avoiding direct contact with my eyes. Over the years, I’ve always applied any products I use on my face and neck in an “up and outward” direction. (Gravity doesn’t need any extra help!)

I like to start under my jaw line and apply up and out around the back of my ears. Remember….always be gentle when working on your face ! I then continue moving upward along the sides of my face, in front of my ears, up to my temples , over my nose working upward between my eyebrows, and finally sweeping up and out around my forehead. It’s very energizing!

The 24K Gold Caviar Wrinkle Serum glides on your face with ease, has a nice silky feel, and you need to use very little product. You’ll use this product in the morning and evening.

You’re going to notice, after you apply your makeup that your skin will maintain a nice, natural, healthy, yet finished appearance! I like the way it feels, and how my face looks all day long! And, yes….I must say it does impart an “inner” glow to the skin, and I never experienced a flat or dry look on my face throughout the day.

I suggest that you visit their website where you’ll be able to learn more about PRAI’s products, and be able to purchase them, as well: http://www.praibeauty.com

PRAI’s website is very user friendly, and I genuinely appreciate the way it’s categorized! When you arrive on the “Home Page”, “Click” the “SKINCARE” box and you will be taken to a page that allows you to determine your particular skin and product needs from the following options below! It’s very well presented, giving you choices that allow you to zero in on just the product you are looking for, customize products for your needs, or synergistically find a collection that will provide a nice regimen for your skin requirements!

(Quoting the website) You’ll be able to:

• Shop by –“CONCERN” : ( EG:What are your skin’s needs?)
• Shop by –“BENEFIT” : ( EG:What benefits are you looking to address?
• Shop by –“CATAGORY”: (What type of product are you looking for?
• Shop by –“COLLECTION”: (This is a great way to check out the various collection of products, for example: 24K, PLATINUM, AGELESS, FRAGRANCE, etc.! )
• Shop by – “ALL”: Here you’ll find “all” of PRAI’s terrific products.
I found this an extremely educational website!

“Globally sold in 5 countries and in all 18 countries of the Middle East on the Global Network Channels”, in the USA you can also find PRAI on: HSN: http://www.hsn.com/shop/prai/7115?rid=2950&query=PRAI&isSuggested=True

The 24K Gold Caviar Wrinkle Serum is a terrific wrinkle repair serum from a well developed line of products that compliment each other and target a wonderful range of your specific skin care needs.

As the PRAI packaging says: “The most beautiul skin in the world wears PRAI….”

I love our Beauty Industry! It’s a hard working, generous, and caring group of people who, not only with their expertise… share their knowledge, educate, and make the world a more glamorous place, but… are always available to step in and create their “magic” when needed!

helped give Rockaway High School students affected by Hurricane Sandy the prom of their dreams, thanks to a recent partnership with Rent the Runway. The mega styling party took place at the high school’s gym last week, where students were given a prom-night makeup kit courtesy of the artistry team at Lancôme.

The excited students were also invited to take part in tutorial sessions led by Carin Gustavson, Lancôme Director of Makeup Artistry and Training. While the makeup artists did each girl’s makeup, they also provided them with step-by-step instructions on how to recreate the look at home for their big night.


The most requested look? “Definitely a smoky eye,” says Gustavson. “It felt great to give back to these students who have obviously lost so much. I loved that we were able to teach them and give them product—with the know-how and the right tools, I know they’ll all look beautiful.”

Each student received a Lancôme makeup bag containing:

•Color Design 5-Pan Palette (a must-have for smoky eyes)!

•Vernis in Love Nail Lacquer

•Juicy Tubes Lip Gloss

•Bi-Facil Makeup Remover

BRAVO Lancôme! You helped create a memory these young ladies will never forget!!
