Make Sun Safe Memories this Memorial Day!

unnamed-1

Warm weather often translates to spontaneous weekend trips, last minute BBQs and beach gatherings. While you may not know exactly which invitations are coming your way, you can make sure your skin is ready for whatever the day may bring. Here’s a helpful list to set you up for skincare success (just in time for Memorial Day weekend), so you can focus on making (sun safe) memories:

Where to start …

  • Before you gather your newest magazines and softest beach blanket, take Heliocare® Daily Use Antioxidant Formula. It is dermatologist-recommended and backed by over 30 years of study. Heliocare® is an oral dietary supplement with antioxidant properties that helps preserve the skin’s ability to protect itself against sun-related effects and aging.1 Curious how it works? The antioxidant aids in eliminating free radicals produced by sun exposure and a reduction in these free radicals helps to maintain younger-looking, more resilient skin.1
  • Next, grab your darkest sunglasses and a hat to protect your face and the sensitive area around your eyes.
  • For added protection, be sure to pack SPF 50+ and reapply per package instructions!
  • If your beach day is likely to take you into the evening then bring a gentle cleanser. Remember, the goal of effective cleansing is to remove dirt, excess oils, and dead skin cells without causing irritation.
  • And don’t forget to drink water – hydration is essential, especially when out in the sun for long periods of time.

Whether you like to “go with the flow” or follow a strict itinerary, we hope you make happy, sun safe memories this summer!

Heliocare® retails for $29.99 and can be purchased at Walgreens locations nationwide. For more information, please visit www.heliocare.com or www.ferndalehealthcare.com.

During the past few years, my daughters and I have used some great skincare. I am always amazed when I try a new brand and love it!  Skincare gets better and better and ClarityRX Fruit Daily Fruit Antioxidant Moisturizing Mango Mask is just that. ClarityRX Fruit Daily Fruit Antioxidant Moisturizing Mango Mask is an antoxidant-rich mask formulated for all skin types. I have a skin type that is both dry and mature and this mask has added more moisture to my skin and it feels softer than ever. I found that it only takes about 15 minutes and a small amount of ClarityRX Fruit Daily Fruit Antioxidant Moisturizing Mango Mask twice a week for ultra moisturized skin. You will feel the results immediately, even if your skin is not dry.

“ClarifyRx Daily Fruit Antioxidant Moisturizing Mango Mask ensures your skin receives a full serving of fruit by delivering essential free radical fighting ingredients to your skin. This creamy anti-aging mask is enhanced by pentapeptides, that aid in improved collagen and elastin formation, and emollient oils to help restore aging skin.”

Whether you have Mature, sensitive, normal, combination, dry, oily or acne prone skin, Clarity RX is just what the doctor ordered to begin the skin restoration process that is so needed due to environmental damage.

ClarityRx products have created the perfect “synergy” of natural plant and food resources. This delightful anti-aging mask is rich and creamy and contains ingredients like Aloe vera gel, Sesame oil, Safflower oil, Sea Buckthorn berry oil, Carrot oil Chamomile extracts, Cucumber and of course mango butter, to name a few.

Next stop…Flash Wax at NYC Boom Boom Brow Bar

unnamed-1

On a recent trip to New York, one of the last stops on our schedule was to go to Boom Boom Brow Bar. I have been dying to get there and once we arrived, the place was packed. We couldn’t even fit into the salon. Naturally, we would have waited (we heard it was definitely worth the wait) but a train home would not wait for us. My next trip to New York, Boom Boom Brow Bar will be my first stop. And I am also going to purchase  Boom Boom’s Flash Wax. Watch the video below and you will see why.

Screen Shot 2016-05-23 at 8.33.57 PM Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Z_88rEYNWg

Malynda Vigliotti (aka Boom Boom) offers this advice: Flash Wax is a low-temperature lipo-soluable cream that is so gentle, it can be used on ALL skin types…even sensitive.  It’s perfect for all Uptown (about the fabulous belt) and Downtown (below the fabulous belt) wax services.  It’s made in Italy – just like Boom Boom – and it’s the only wax good enough for her!  “I love waxing because you have a lot of control versus threading or tweezing…you can quickly and gently remove all hair for a great shape and smooth surface,” says Boom Boom.

Word to the wise – be honest, tell the esthetician if using medications that make skin sensitive, like Retin-A, retinol, Accutane, antibiotics, Benzoyl Peroxide, and even Proactive.  These medications are designed to exfoliate the skin, so if wax is applied, it can literally lift skin off like it’s a piece of parchment paper.  That’s when tweezing is the best bet.

“And no double dipping! If anyone dips a spatula more than once, guess what?  It’s not sanitary – it’s contaminating the entire pot of wax!! Shop around for good quality wax AND cleanliness,” adds Boom Boom.

Price: $15.00, 400ml/14 oz., available on http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017ARCVJS

Boom Boom would never test on animals!

Malynda Vigliotti (aka Boom Boom) is obsessed with brows – 165,000+ served at Boom Boom Brow Bar in NYC!!   Boom Boom Booty and Brow 2 now open offering Uptown (above the fabulous belt) and Downtown (below the fabulous belt) services! It’s fast, convenient, affordable and FUN!!  Everyone should have thick gorgeous eyebrows; after all, they are the most important feature on the face and THE best accessory EVA!   And now bikini waxing is a cinch too – just walk-in! Happy Hour all day every Monday – Friday.  Check out what’s cooking on Instagram: https://instagram.com/boomboombrowbar; Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/boomboombrowbar and Twitter:http://twitter.com/boomboombrowbar.

Kirsten Dunst at the Loving Premier – The 69th Cannes Film Festival

unnamed-5

Makeup by Mary Wiles for Charlotte Tilbury Beauty 

The 69th Cannes Film Festival jury member and 90’s icon Kirsten Dunst proved herself as a timeless beauty on the red carpet tonight at the Loving Premier. This week has seen Kirsten experiment with her beauty looks buttonight she returned to her iconic retro style in a gown embroidered with Lily of the Valley flowers by Dior Couture and a complimentary beauty look by makeup artist Mary Wiles using Charlotte Tilbury Beauty. Wiles created a polished, modern take of retro red carpet glamour with a flawless softly contoured complexion, smoldering eye and a ruby red lip.

Below, Mary Wiles shares the steps to create Kirsten’s red carpet look:

  1. Mary prepped Kirsten’s skin using Multi Miracle Glow first applied as a mask to moisturize the skin and stimulate micro-circulation and then removed with a warm towel. Wiles then applied a generous layer of Charlotte Tilbury’s signature Magic Cream to give the complexion a luminous glow to create a smooth, flawless base. Lip Magic was used to ensure lips were well hydrated.
  1. Next, Wiles applied Wonderglow to the cheekbones and temples to produce a flawless soft focus and an instant “spotlight” effect. Magic Foundation in shade 3 was blended out over Kirsten’s T-zone to ensure her complexion looked flawless and concealed any imperfections with The Retoucher in Shade 2. Mini Miracle Eye Wand in shade 1 was applied to brighten under the eyes.
  1. Wiles continued Kirsten’s facial framework by contouring using killer cheekbones using red carpet favorite, Filmstar Bronze and Glow.
  1. Wiles finished the glowing complexion with Cheek to Chic Blusher in Love is the Drug on the apples of Kirsten’s cheeks for a youthful flush of color, followed with a light dusting of Airbrush Flawless Finish in Shade 1 to ensure long wear.
  2. Kirsten wanted her eyes to dazzle in front of the cameras. To achieve this look Wiles used Eyes to Mesmerise in Bette applied with a finger. The Feline Flick was then applied along the lash line and out to elongate the shape of the eye. Colour Chameleon in Black Diamonds was added into the liner and extended outwards to build up a strong definition and smudged for a smoky eye effect.
  3. To achieve true red-carpet glamour, Wiles applied two coats of Charlotte’s new Legendary Lashes mascara for an instant false lash effect. Wiles confirmed that Kirsten likes her brows well defined and applied Brow Lift in Brooke S to fill in any gaps.
  1. To complete the look, Wiles applied the retro red toned Matte Revolution in Red Carpet Red, lined with Lip Cheat in Savage Rose to ensure her pout was perfect.
