Color loving with Framesi

My mom, Sharon Hatcher, is back with another great blog! Here she shares her “Color Loving” with Framesi Color Lover! Check it out below.

Framesi Color Lover Shampoo & Conditioner is great to help retain that perfect color that you love so much for a lot longer. It is gentle and therefore the color you started with stays true for a longer period of time. Made in the USA and free of sulfates, paraben, gluten, DEA & sodium chloride makes this product a great choice to give your hair the TLC that it needs. I really liked the body that my hair has after using these products. I thought I was ready for a haircut, but found that I was really enjoying my length with it’s new bounciness & body. You only need a little each time you wash your hair so that means the product lasts longer than most. Framesi also has a line of hair color that you might want to check out. If you would like to acquire some of your own “Framesi” products, go to http://www.framesiprofessional.com/Locator/Salon to find a salon near you.

If You Share your Shampoo consider hiding your Philip b.

22333

 

As a frequent user of Philip b. Products, I can assure you, the Philip b. Hair care and body care collection is fabulous. Philip b. Products are specially formulated with unique botanicals that add richness, fragrance and shine to your hair. Botanicals are a substance obtained from a plant and used as an additive to beauty products. Hops, Nettle, Sage Juniper Berry, Aloe Vera and Chamomile are just a few of the various botanicals found in the Philip b. Collection. I will tell you this, the Peppermint and Avacado Volumizing and Clarifying Shampoo is amazing! It’s like aromatherapy in the shower.  I love the peppermint scent which is why my husband wants the shampoo for himself. He noticed the tingling sensation on his scalp as he shampooed his hair, and the smell was like a blast of peppermint in the shower. This shampoo contains (2.3%) peppermint oil and 16 extracts which create that cooling-tingling sensation.

This shampoo is perfect for fine hair. My husband also said his hair felt squeaky clean, and I must agree, I loved how my hair felt after I dried it, clean shiny and bouncy. Peppermint and Avacado Volumizing and Clarifying Shampoo is Paraben free, safe for color treated hair and is keratin treatment safe. The fact that this shampoo is mine won’t stop my family from using it, especially one that smells so incredible. The first thing they do is smell the shampoo. If they like the smell, they will try it. If they like, I have to hide it!

A second chance with Repêchage

A few weeks ago I shared my at home seaweed facial with all of you that I discovered through surfing the internet. I hope if you are giving it a try that you are loving it and relaxing with seaweed. Today I have a skincare line that I have been using for quite sometime and discovered at Premiere Orlando, that is made with the number one ingredient..SEAWEED!!! Thats right more seaweed. Repêchage skincare is your true “Beauty From the Sea” skincare line that not only helps with acne but can help with dry, anti aging, normal, sensitive and more. As well as all your body care needs.

Repechage Logo

Since 1980, Repêchage (which mean “a second chance”) has taken pride in using only the best seaweed and ingredients to help give you the best skin of your life. Trust me! Having a tremendous amount of acne and having struggled to find the perfect product my whole life, I am so happy to have found Repêchage to add to my skincare routine. The Hydra Medic line ( that I currently have been using) is a perfect amount of acne medication to help start clearing it up in the first use. After my first use of Repêchage, I could feel the tingly sensation that digs down deep giving the ultimate clean. The 4 Hydra Medic products I use are the foaming gel cleanser, astringent , serum and nightly drying lotion. They are all gentle enough to use on a daily bases.

Repechage

Repêchage uses a variety of different seaweeds, all found off the Brittany Coast of France. Each bundle of seaweed serves its own purpose when it comes to the range of skin conditions (check out the differences here-http://www.repechage.com/shopcontent.asp?type=About+Seaweed). I guess you can say this is truly from “20,000 leagues under the sea”. After it has been gathered, it is processed the “Repêchage” way to give it the most nutrients. Repêchage also carries nutrient based mineral makeup of foundation, powders, concealers and lip gloss. Seriously with so much to choose from, Repêchage is a must try product for any skincare concern. For more information on Repêchage visit http://www.repechage.com/ for all products, makeup and more!

You can have perfect beachy waves with label m.

sea_salt_spray_50ml_1

Summer is finally here which means tons of people are spending time at the beach and getting the perfect beachy waves everyone desires more during the summer months. But there’s an easy way to get those beach perfect waves at home now thanks to label.m Sea Salt Spray. It has never been easier to get beautiful beachy hair without having to go through the troubles of visiting the beach. This formula has sea salt in it to make your hair more textured which allows for great volume and loose, natural waves that don’t require the help of a curling iron. Another thing I love about this product is the Enviroshield Complex which is exclusive to label.m and this helps protect hair against harmful heat from styling, and against UV rays. The smell leaves your hair smelling nice and fresh. If you are having trouble this summer achieving the perfect beach hair, you should definitely try label.m’s Sea Salt Spray.

Be your own kind of Younique

When you need a little “lash” boost pull out your 3D Fiber Lashes from Younique. One of the first mascaras I have ever used that showed I actually have eyelahes lol. The fibers take each individual lash and enhances the length, changes the texture and separates them. After it is applied your eyes look ten times bigger. Just like if you were to put on false eyelashes. I enjoy using Youniqe 3D Fiber Lashes on my down days and also on days when my allergies tend to act up. To me a little mascara can really dress up any look.

Original formula Younique 3D fiber lashes

Original formula Younique 3D fiber lashes

Younique has some exciting news to shares with all of us. On July 15th their 3D Fiber Lashes are getting 400% better. The fibers will be coated with Uplift eye cream. This will add shine to your lashes as well as conditioning them. It will increase your volume by 400%. Just like the old formula, this new and improved formula is applied just like the original. (video will follow shortly) If you are an active Younique user no need to worry. The price will remain the same. So stay tuned for the upgrade and for a review on the new formula.

In the meantime check out my friends Sabrina Yeatman and Laura Carr’s Younique website and get your Younique on.

Thou Shall have healthy skin this summer with Pur-lisse

 

unnamed

Before I share with you the Tanning Laws from the Creators of Pur~lisse Skincare and Karora Cosmetics, allow me to fill you in on a little tid-bit. Pur-lisse has a Skincare Line which promises to help you attain the healthiest skin possible. If you have sensitive skin, Pur~lisse Skincare is a line you definitely need to consider. Pur~lisse is French for “pure” and “smooth”, a perfect combination for this anti-aging skincare line.

Pur~lisse Skincare is formulated with five unique ingredients, Blue lotus flower, Lupine Peptides, White tea, Soy Protein and Sea Silk. You can read more about these ingredients at their website purlisse.com, which also states “Pur~lisse blends traditional Chinese beauty rituals of yesteryear with today’s French skincare technology. The result—a coveted pure and effective skincare system in sophisticated, functional packaging for your modern lifestyle.”

Another fabulous feature of Pur~lisse Skincare is that it is free of parabens, petrochemicals, color, fragrance, propylene glycol, phthalates, and no animal tested is ever involved.

Since the summer started I have been a faithful user of Pur~lisse pur~protect spf 30 sunscreen. I love it! It’s a great moisturizer as well as a sunscreen and is very light in texture. This sunscreen provides me with full- spectrum sun protection and as soon as I apply it, I’m ready to start my day. We all need to fight the signs of aging by protecting our skin from the sun and Pur~lisse Anti-aging formulations will keep our skin looking its best.

pur_lisse_bright_and_beautiful_kit_medium

Of course I use Pur~lisse pur~delicate gentle soy milk cleanser before applying my sunscreen. The cleanser is also important to use at the end of the day because it is a thorough cleanser and make-up remover. I especially like that this cleanser is soap-free and its non-irritating formula allows me to cleanse without having to take my contact lenses out. That’s a big plus for me when choosing cleansers. The silky soft skin you are left with after cleansing definitely has me coming back for more.

Pur~lisse Skincare carries moisturizers, anti-aging serums, lip serums, eye serums, white tea and some unique starter kits. You will find the entire skincare line at shop.purlisse.com

Now, let’s get to The Tan Commandments – Fun Sun Safety This Summer:
Fake It Don’t Bake It, The Tanning Laws from the Creators of Pur~lisse Skincare and Karora Cosmetics

Thou Shall Exfoliate::

Buff away skin debris and dead (dull!) skin cells for a natural skin brightening boost!

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: A dollop of pur~delicate gentle soy milk cleanser on an exfoliating mitt can be used from head to toe for a pre-tan full body buff and polish!

Karora Expert Top Tip: Use an exfoliating mitt with your body scrub to rid of any dirt or dead skin cells to prep for the best Karora glow possible!

:: Thou Shall Hydrate The Skin::

When pouring yourself a summer sangria, offer your skin a drink too! It will thank you for it.
The summer sun can rob the skin of moisture, rehydrate with plenty of fluids (a glass of water for every prosecco!) and be generous with the moisturizer.

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: Apply a small amount of pur~moist across the complexion for superior vitamin infused skin hydration experience. Feeling skin generous? Legs, arms and tummy’s will thank you for the moisturizng love too.

Karora Expert Top Tip: Apply a quarter sized portion of Karora’s Gradual Tan Lotion to each section of the body for a moisturizing and beautiful bronze glow!

:: Thou Shall Treat Damage From Summers’ Gone By::

Erase the evidence from a few hours too many on the sun lounger with corrective skincare solutions.

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: Brightening skin agents are your friend for reducing pigmentation and sun spots. Look for products that are Retin A and Salicylic Acid-free, these will thin the skin and damage the integrity of it if used over long periods of time. Pur~lisse pur~bright is enriched with plant extracts that will correct and strengthen the skin surface for a luminous summer complexion!

Karora Expert Top Tip: Treat your damaged skin with nourishing skin caring botanicals from Karora’s CC Cream. It can be used on both face & body for color complexion perfection!

: :Thou Shall Not Forget To Prep The Pout::

The summer sun can cause dry and chapped lips. Kiss and makeup with some luscious lip protection!

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: Lavish fruit butters and vegetable oils will ensure your summer smile is as smooth as your dance floor moves! Pur~lip Comfort is a fab daily lip nourisher.

Karora Expert Top Tip: Keep those beautiful lips moisturized at all times by carrying a lip balm with you where ever you go!

: :Thou Shall Preserve Youthful Looking Skin::

While the sun can accelerate the aging process, your beauty arsenal can slow it down!

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: Coax a youthful glow back into your skin with a powerful peptide complex. Pur~youth Preserve will improve skin texture due to its cocktail of Vitamin E, Rice Bran Oil and Wheat Proteins to give summer induced aging skin the boot!

Karora Expert Top Tip: Karora’s #1 beauty secret is to spray the Tinted Self Tan Mist on your face before you apply your makeup for a beautiful glow that will develop throughout the day!

:: Thou Shall Use SPF Every Day::

All rays were not created equal! UVB causes skin cancer and burning. UVA causes wrinkles. Who wants either? Wear SPF religiously!

Pur~lisse Expert Top Tip: Its’ all about location, location, location. Remember the sun rays are stronger the closer you get to the equator. Reapply every few hours when enjoying the great outdoors this summer. Pur~Protect SPF30 is a full spectrum (UVB and UVA protection), light weight nourishing moisturizer. Can be used under makeup for alfresco dining and cocktails at the beach!

Karora Expert Top Tip: Treat your skin to a healthy faux glow with Karora’s Ultra Dark Bronzing Mousse. You will be able to maintain your glow without overexposing your skin to the harmful and damaging UV rays from the sun.

Keep Motions in Your Natural Curls

20150625_090240-1 (3)

In my day to day dealings I get asked all kinds of questions about my natural hair. How long have you been natural? How long does it take to do your hair? Is it a lot of work? What products do you use, and so forth and so on? Here are the answers; my whole life, it takes a while, not if you have the right products and the hair care line I use is Motions Hair Care. It has everything my hair needs to thrive in its natural state from my wash and go to my twist outs.

Motions hair careThe key to having healthy natural hair begins with clean moisturized hair. Motions Shampoo is a great start; it gets your scalp clean and eliminates the build up from all the products that we put on our hair daily. Motions Shampoo gets my hair thoroughly clean and ready to receive the conditioner to lock in that moisture my hair so desperately needs. Motions Conditioner is creamy, rich and simple to use. All you have to do is massage the conditioner from your roots to the ends of your hair for about 3-5 mintues then rinse. It makes my hair so soft and easy to detangle, which as every natural hair chick knows that detangling can be the most tedious part in doing our hair.

To ensure your hair stays conditioned and moisturized Motions Leave-In Conditioner and Hair Styling Cream combined with Motions Hair Oil is to die for! I just section my hair into four parts and then grease my scalp using the hair oil to stimulate my scalp and then use the leave-in conditioner (a little goes a long way). Once you put the leave-in conditioner on your hair and comb through you will notice right away how your curls will be full and bouncy! You can stop there with your wash and go and walk out knowing your natural curls are rocking. However, if you want to manipulate your curl pattern and style with a twist out or whatever style you like, simply start the styling process and let it dry. I don’t use heat so I usually let my hair dry overnight and take down the next day. I take down my twist out and spray my finished look with Motions Oil Sheen for that luxurious shine that leaves my hair light and flirty.

So if you are living the natural hair life or even thinking of it, check out www.Motions.com to get all you will need to let the world know that you love your curls as much as Motions Hair Care products do!
