Worryless: The 1st and Only Cosmetic That Looks Like Real Skin.
Movie Magic In Your Medicine Cabinet to Erase Worry Lines.
This info and product crossed my desk recently and Yes, it really does work! Try it and I think you will agree! See BEFORE and AFTER photos here: https://dermaflage.com/worryless/
Be sure to pay close attention to the “How to Apply” steps highlighted in BOLD below.
Time to toss all those plumping products that promised to work. Say bye-bye to Botox. Make room for the only at home anti-frown line product you’ll need from now on – Worryless. Worryless is indeed the stuff of movie magic. Developed by Hollywood makeup and special effects artists, it uses medical grade silicone to simulate skin—filling and concealing frown lines between your eyebrows instantly! Worryless is the first and only topical dermal filler created to virtually erase glabella lines (the deep vertical lines between your eyebrows). If it works for A-list actors on high definition film, it will work for you!
Upon application, the silicone transforms from a liquid to a flexible rubber-like consistency, which simulates skin. It seamlessly fills in the deep crevices and because it is translucent, allows your skin to shine through. The result? Perfectly, smooth realistic looking skin.
Worryless is:
How to Apply in 2 Easy Steps
Step 1: Apply. Apply a small amount to the skin using the pointed precision application tool. With a spatula tool or a finger, blend the edges into the skin.
Step 2: Texture. Place Skin Texture Pad over the area. Press around the edges. Hold in place for about a minute.
Using Makeup With Worryless
– You can wear liquid foundation under Worryless.
– Always use less Worryless than you think you’ll need.
– Mineral based powders work best with Worryless.
Worryless Starter Kits come in six shades: Fair, Golden, Rosy, Bronze, Tan and Dark. Each kit contains two different color shades, two applicators, primer with brush, mixing stick, application tool, spatula and texture pad. Retail Price: $60.00 To Purchase: http://www.dermaflage.com
Silicone Arts Labs manufacturers Worryless and is a product innovation company in the cosmetics and medical industries. Their largest product, Dermaflage, is a scar and wrinkle concealer that uses silicone to replicate the unique tone and texture of user’s skin — vastly outperforming other solutions on the market today. The company’s innovation engine is based on the combination of the science of facial prosthetics and the art of Hollywood special effects. Their breakthrough cosmetic products empower and inspire their customers to feel more confident.

DIY on the FLY by Julee Ireland Wedding Place Card and Wedding Favor
DIY on the Fly Wedding Place Card by Julee Ireland
Seating your guests in style sets the tone for the celebration that’s ahead. Here’s a few double duty DIY ideas for seating place cards that also make great wedding party favors at the same time.
Mini Terrarium
1. Start by purchasing a mini glass container that you like. I found a few at Michael’s craft stores that I liked.
2. Add gravel, moss or sand depending on the container that you choose.
3. Purchase floral stems of succulents or other small-scale flower stems that you like.
4. Add the filler first. If you are using a container you may want to use a glue gun to secure your gravel or moss to the inside of the glass container.
5. If you are using the bulb as pictured. Pour some fine grain sand into the bulb filling it to your desired look.
6. Cut your succulents or small flowers from your stems and depending on the container you use either glue them in place or stuff them into the bulb dropping them down into the sand. (I used a pencil to help position my succulent stems where I wanted them into my bulb).
7. Add your place card tag with your guest name or guest name and table number.
Voila! There are many ways to display your place cards. I personally love putting them at each place setting in the center of a plate or right above a napkin. Enjoy your special day and leave your guests with a unique wedding favor gift that will keep on giving.
