This is a Part of the Grammy’s

The 55th annual Grammy Awards stunned with stars from Katy Perry to Beyonce.  When it comes to award shows (and being a hairdresser myself), I always LOVE to see the different hairstyles.  One look that killed was Katy Perry.  Head to toe she stunned that red carpet with a hairstyle, courtesy of Renato Campora and KMS® California hair care.  See how you to can achieve this look below.

At the 55th annual Grammy Awards,Katy Perry looked stunning from head to toe, with a voluminous hairstyle created for her byRenato Campora using products from KMS® California hair care.

 

For Katy’s look, Renato was inspired by a 50s pin-up glam girl, with shiny, voluminous hair. To get her look, Renato first applied KMS California ADDVOLUME® styling foam to wet hair. Then, he blew it out using a large round brush to create volume. Next, Renato parted her hair down the middle and applied KMS California FREESHAPE® hot flex sprayto ensure the style would last all night. Then, he used a 1 ½ inch curling iron to smooth the hair and create texture. To seal the look, Renato added a drop of KMS California SILKSHEEN® polishing serum. Renato really brought the pin-up girl to life with Katy’s gorgeous, shiny hair, spraying it with KMS California HAIRPLAY® dry touch-upfor instant, weightless surface conditioning.

The first-ever Anti-Wrinkle Patch from BIOBLISS™ is here!

The BIOBLISS Anti-Wrinkle Patch has a high-tech, extremely interesting delivery system that I’m looking forward to sharing with you!

You’ve probably heard about the “Medical Transdermal-Infusion Patches” that are topically applied to the skin and used as a delivery system for various pharmaceutical products such as pain reducers, hormones, etc. BIOBLISS has created a (quote) “unique patented version of this Transdermal-Infusion Technology” with their “Anti-Wrinkle Patch”. (The patch comes in two shapes. One for the forehead, and one for the under eye area.)

The patch contains dermatologist approved all natural ingredients, and via a “proprietary ion technology” the patch is able to deliver the anti-wrinkle ingredients deeper into the skin. The anti-wrinkle ingredients are known to lessen the appearance of “fine lines and wrinkles”, and they penetrate the skin in less time! With the BIOBLISS Patch you’ll be able to see faster results than with (Quote) “traditional creams that sit on the surface of the skin causing nearly 96% of the active ingredients go unabsorbed!” The (BIOBLISS Patch), (Quote)”is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in 30 minutes.”

OK, Magazine said:
(Quote) “BIOBLISS offers treatments that give the results of Botox without the nasty needles!”

BIOBLISS “Anti-Wrinkle” Patch for the forehead
http://www.biobliss.com

That is the patch I was sent to try. The BIOBLISS Anti-Wrinkle Patch is light weight and you must cleanse the area where you will be using the patch! Make sure the area is dry and free of oil.

There are some great ingredients in the patch including:(Quote)
• Hyaluronic Acid
• Powerful Peptides
• Essential Vitamins
• Advanced Antioxidents

I watched the BIOBLISS website video and found the patch very easy to use, quick to apply, relaxing, and had impressive results! I think it’s very advanced technology, and will give nice options for consumers looking for alternative ways to keep their lines and wrinkles under control!

Being that it is an advanced approach to caring for wrinkles, I highly recommend that you go to the to the BIOBLISS website and read about the company, learn about all the fine ingredients that are in BIOBLISS , and take look at the BIOBLISS System of products that compliment the patches and enhance the anti-aging benefits, including Cleanse™, Scrub™, Lock-It-In™ Serum, Hydrate™ Lotion, and the Anti-Wrinkle Patches. You may also purchase your products right online!
Here is the website, once again!: http://www.biobliss.com

BIOBLISS with it’s progressive approach in addressing wrinkles gets a 5-Star Review !

I’d also like to acknowledge the BIOBLISS “TEAM”, and give them much admiration for their belief in “Giving Back” !! Quote from the the BIOBLISS 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”.

Ongoing success BIOBLISS™…

(Quotes or paraphrased information in this article were obtained from a provided PR-Fact Sheet, Website :www.biobliss.com, and the product I received to use & review.)

(Take a moment to read the instructions and cautions on the anti-wrinkle patch package before use.)

Aveeno Dry Shampoo is a Real Root Booster

300

I have the type of hair that gets oily very quickly. I can’t put a lot of product in my hair so I have to rely on shampoos and conditioners to keep my hair frizz-free.  Because of this, I have tried many different types of dry shampoo.  After about a year of experimenting, I’ve finally found one that I’m going to stick with, Aveeno’s “Pure Renewal Dry Shampoo.”  I spray it on the roots of my hair the day after I blow dry and straighten my hair and it instantly gives my hair a cleaner, dryer look.  It also gives my roots a little bit of a boost which adds volume to my hair.  The Active Naturals formula used in this product is also safe for color-treated hair.  So whether you dye your hair or not, this dry shampoo will definitely give you that freshly washed and styled look that every girl wants.  So don’t waste your time and money trying all different types of dry shampoos to figure out which one works best.  Just take my word for it and start using Aveeno’s Dry Shampoo.

As stated by their website, http://www.aveeno.com/pure-renewal-dry-shampoo. “This exclusive ACTIVE NATURALS® formula is infused with Balancing Seaweed Extract which instantly revives hair for healthy manageability. The formula is sulfate-free and designed to remove excess oil and impurities to help boost volume. Developed by our expert team of scientists and eco-friendly celebrity hair stylist, Patrick Melville”.

0-2

Patrick Melville’s quick how-to for achieving polished party hair (low chignon):

1.       Blow-dry hair with Mason Pearson Brush or round brush, when hair is dry, spray hair with the AVEENO® Dry Shampoo at the root to create texture

2.       Take a small tail comb and tease very gently at the root throughout the head, flip hair upside down and break up hair with your finger

3.       Grab hair at the nape and secure with hair tie, this should create a little texture and softness around your face

4.       With the tailcomb, gently tease the ponytail to create more texture, spin ponytail around to create a chignon at nape of neck and secure with a straight pin or bobby pin

5.       Break up with fingers on the bottom, use a lightweight hairspray to secure in place, finish with a sparkly headband or clip.

You can find a complete range of Aveeno products from skin and hair care to baby care at http://www.aveeno.com.

70th Annual Golden Globes of 2013

Just when you think the stars can’t shine anymore, they keep coming around the corner.  The gowns keep flowing, the jewelry continues to shine, and the hairstyles keep turning heads. With help from NEW Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion hair products, designer and “Fashion Star” mentor Nicole Richie dazzled the red carpet with her show stopping curls.

Here’s how Suave Professionals® Stylist, Jenny Cho, created Nicole’s red carpet look: · Wash hair with New Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Shine Shampoo and Conditioner, and then blow dry hair using a large paddle brush. · Part hair on the side and begin curling with a one-inch barrel curling iron. Be sure to hold the curling barrel horizontal to the head. · After curling each section, use bobby pins to hold in place. · Blast hair all over with a hot dryer for 1-2 minutes to help set the curls. · Remove the bobby pins, lightly brush the hair to soften curls and finish with Suave Professionals® Touchable Finish Super Hold Hairspray. · Place 1-2 drops of the New Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Styling Oil in palms and rub hands together. Avoiding the roots, gently run hands over the surface of the hair to add a radiant shine. · Place the Moroccan Infusion Styling Oil in your clutch for touchups on the go.

 

Nicole also has a few tips that she can always count on to help shine on the carpet – or just a night on the town! · Identify your top feature and play it up – know your body and what silhouettes work for you. · With both makeup and accessories – focus on one bold item. For example, when doing a deep lip, leave eyes bare, or if wearing a statement necklace, keep the earrings simple. · Whether she’s doing an up ‘do or down and sleek for her hairstyle, she always goes for shine on the carpet. Her go-to product is the NEW Suave Professionals® Moroccan Infusion Styling Oil for brilliant, lightweight conditioning.
