Selena’s look can be yours with John Frieda Frizz Ease

Teen Choice Awards 2014 - Arrivals

INSPIRATION: Selena’s very tailored Saint Laurent suit

GET THE LOOK: This look “weaves confident, youthful, sexy, a hint of bold, but still very sweet,” said celebrity stylist Lona Vigi

  • To start, Vigi misted Selena’s hair with an Evian atomizer in order to prep her hair and keep it in the cleanest condition.
  • Next, she applied a dime sized amount of the John Frieda Frizz Ease Original Six Effects Serum into her hands, and rubbed them together before going into Selena’s hair, starting at the roots and pulling all the way to the ends. “This serum is like a BB Cream for the hair,” said Vigi. “It covers so many vital bases that you end up using multiple products for, instead you can cut all of that out of the equation and just have this one master product.”
  • In the front, Vigi sprayed John Frieda Frizz Ease Moisture Barrier Firm Hold Hairspray while the hair was still damp in order to keep all the little baby hairs around the frame of the face tamed down.
  • Then, while blowing drying on a medium heat with the Harry Josh Pro Tools Dryer, Vigi sprayed the hair continuously to ensure the hair stayed back into the ponytail.
  • Next Vigi clipped the hair up and took super small sections and went over them with a flat iron, getting as close to the scalp as possible.
  • Vigi created a center part and then gathered Selena’s hair by the nape of her neck to create the ponytail. Once it was secure, she patted John Frieda Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch–Up Creme into the ponytail so that it looked extra strong and shiny. “We wanted the ponytail to be the accessory to her look,” said Vigi.
  • As a final touch, Lona secured the ponytail with a long, black ribbon.

Bodycology is Naughty and Nice

unnamed-15

Bodycology Naughty and Nice Sweet Seduction is one of my favorite mists and lotions for the summertime. The fresh petals and apple fragrance is so fruity and cool so it’s great for when the weather is humid and you want to feel refreshed. After I get out of the shower, I usually apply the lotion to my legs and arms and when I leave the house I will spray the mist on my neck. The cream really moisturizers my legs and if you love cocoa, shea, and jojoba butters, this is the lotion for you. The fragrance of the mist and body lotion last for quite a while, too. Another great thing is that these products are made in the USA! The mist and the lotion would make a great gift for a loved one, and they can be found at drugstores or Walmart and Target for only around $3 to $5.

Skyy Hadley’s Recipe for the Ultimate Hydrating Coconut Scrub

Skyy Hadley’s Recipe

image005

 

 

 

 

Summer may be winding down but our feet are always in need of some restoration and hydration. Whether you’ve had a long day at the office, you’re suffering from dry flip-flop feet, or you’re trying to break in a new pair of heels, there is nothing a DIY at-home foot scrub can’t fix. Try the below recipe for a luxurious, at-home foot treatment from celebrity manicurist and owner of As “U” Wish Nail Spa, Skyy Hadley and your feet will feel good as new in no time!

Skyy Hadley’s Recipe for the Ultimate Hydrating Coconut Scrub:

*Begin by muddling a few fresh mint leaves in an empty jar to release their natural essential oils. This will help you relax while providing hydration.·

*Warm up some coconut oil and pour into the jar until it is halfway full.

*Add 2 tablespoons of honey and mix in 1 tablespoon of sugar until the sugar is completely immersed in the oil mixture.

*Take a couple spoonfuls of the scrub and work into your legs and feet to fully exfoliate, sloughing away dead skin and smoothing out calluses, cracked heels and rough spots.

*The coconut oil will provide a great amount of moisture, leaving skin feeling smooth and supple.

Also, be sure to rub on toe nail beds and in between toes to prevent nail infections and fungus (as coconut oil contains anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties).

Repeat 1-2 times per week for a moisturizing and revitalizing at-home spa treatment.

Beauty Tips and Tricks-Studio 10

See as I share these great Beauty Tips and Tricks on Studio 10!

On Studio 10

On Studio 10

Watch the segment here: http://www.wtsp.com/videos/entertainment/television/studio10/2014/08/18/14242461/

Proper way to comb wet hair (straight or curly) ( I will bring my mannequin head I used in beauty school to demonstrate)- After shampooing and conditioning you want to make sure the hair is damp. Next take a wide toothed comb and section your hair horizontally starting from the bottom up. This will keep your hair from being pulled out and will make it a lot less painful.

Instead of microfiber towels use this- Now we have plenty of these around the house am I right? I am talking about t-shirts. Did you know that using microfiber towels can actually cause hair breakage and hair loss. SO next time you get out of the shower have a cotton fiber t-shirt sitting next to you and use that to wrap your hair.

Best way to shampoo and condition hair (especially if it is color treated)- When shampooing your hair don’t use more than a nickel size amount and only focus on your scalp. Do not ball your hair at the top of your head. Use your fingertips to massage your scalp and work into a lather. rinse hair and let shampoo run down the ends of your hair. Make sure you use a shampoo with low pH balance such as the ones found in your salon. Next to condition only use a nickel size and this time focus on the ends of your hair. RInse with cool water to help lock in moisture and also to help lock in color. If your hair is color treated especially redheads wash hair 2-3 times a week.

At home remedy for red heads- Aside from using shampoo and conditioner that is made specifically for color treated hair, a great at home remedy to help maintain redheads is rinsing your hair with cranberry juice. YES cranberry juice. We have all heard from our parents be careful cranberry juice stains. Its the same idea for your hair. After shampooing and conditioning your hair take a bottle of cranberry juice turn your head upside down in the shower and pour the cranberry juice on your hair and allow the water to run clear before flipping your head back over (tip: do this BEFORE you shave your legs)

Feel Like a KILLER QUEEN with Katy Perry’s Sexy Fragrance

Katy Perry Killer Quees

Katy Perry Killer Queen

Just like Katy Perry herself, her Killer Queen perfume exudes playful sexiness. The perfume comes in a luxurious bottle shaped like a red ruby, a fun and sophisticated look for this intoxicating and rich scent.  On the skin, Killer Queen is a slightly sweet and very attractive smell that has hints of wild berries, dark plum, velvety flowers, and jasmine.  It is a complex scent that is almost androgynous and certainly playful and sexy. Accordingly, the perfume works for both night and day. Plus, for me it was long-lasting so it lasts from day to night, amazing! Overall, this luscious and sexy scent is a great confidence booster and makes you feel sophisticated, empowered and beautiful. This perfume certainly lived up to the name and made me feel like a Killer Queen.

You can find Katy Perry Killer Queen at http://www.ulta.com

Nina Dobrev Debuts The Red Carpet Rope Braid At The Teen Choice Awards

Nina Dobrev

Nina Dobrev dazzled on the Teen Choice Awards Blue Carpet tonight debuting what stylist Riawna Capri calls “The Red Carpet Rope Braid. “ Riawna created the unique look by blowing drying Nina’s hair using the KMS California FREESHAPE quick blow dry to cut down on drying time leaving more time for Capri to style to the hair. Once the hair was dry, Riawna used the KMS California FREESHAPE 2-in-1 styling and finishing spray before curling the hair with a 1-inch curling iron in big sections vertically to make a messy beach wave. Then Capri flipped over Dobrev’s hair and sprayed the KMS HAIRPLAY playable texture liberally to saturate the hair and create a disheveled texture.

To construct the unique rope braid, Riawna separated the hair into three sections, twisted them clockwise and then took those twisted sections and braided them counter clockwise to showcase distinct texture. Capri then spread out the braid and pulled out some loose pieces to frame Dobrev’s face and give an effortless look, sprayed her final masterpiece with the KMS California HAIRSTAY medium hold hairspray to keep the it in place.
