  1. How to create Soap Brows

    We all love the look of thick and youthful brows. Unfortunately, due to over waxing and over plucking, many of us have lost the fullness our brows used to have. To those facing a lack of density, there is a great solution! Soap Brows. Soap Brows is a long standing trend in the fashion industry. For years makeup artists have been utilizing soap and other tacky materials to create the illusion of thicker and fuller arches.

    Creating this amazing and truly gorgeous look is quite simple. All it takes is a bar of Castile soap or even the use of molding gel or glue for hair. The idea behind soap brows is to enhance the fibers of your brows and create thickness and fill in any gaps. The outcome is quite striking and truly so easy to achieve.

    There are countless how to videos on the internet to help you see how to achieve the soap brows effect. One of our favorites is Real Technique's Soap Brow Tutorial. Its easy to follow and simple. remember this is not a difficult process. therefore you should be able to watch a video once and get the idea.

    Al you need to create soap brows is a mascara spoolie, clear soap and water. To create the perfect soap brows start by making sure that your eyebrows are nice and clean. I like to add use eyebrow gel before hand to add color and fill in any gaps with my eyebrow pencil. then I proceed to add the soap. The soap also keeps the color in place. Wet your mascara spoolie and then run it on the soap creating a little bit of suds. Now. brush upwards. Continue adding soap to the spoolie as needed.

    If you do not have clear soap at home, you can also use a clear hair molding paste such as TIGI Bed Head Manipulator Texture Paste. Again the idea is to use something that will create thicker fibers. I have even heard you can use mascara primer to create a thicker look. The soap brows effect is the best only because it does keep your brows in place.

    For those who want great arches and want to do it themselves at home, you must try soap brows! Its easy, fast and can be achieved with materials you have at home. Happy arches!!!!

    One of my new favorite anti aging products is the Dr Dennis Gross Ferulic & Retinol Brightening Solution. This is my new antioxidant rich day and night serum for bright, smooth and flawless skin. Let's start by understanding exactly what Ferulic is and means for our skin!

    Ferulic Acid Serums contain a combination of antioxidants. In the Dr Dennis Gross Ferulic & Retinol Brightening Solution it consists of 15% pure vitamin C, 1% vitamin E and 0.5% Ferulic Acid.

  3. Hair Loss and Sleep

    how-to-tame-frizzy-hair Ever question why your hair starts too look not its best when you have lost a few nights sleep? It should not come as a surprise, that sleep deprivation has the same effects on hair as it has on skin. Lack of sleep and irregular sleep patterns can cause thinning hair, dull hair and overall hair loss. Is lack of sleep the direct cause of hair loss? No. What causes our hair loss is the stress our bodies go through when we do not receive enough rest. When our body does not receive an adequate amount of sleep, our immune system begins to decline. We also experience hormonal imbalances that can result in thinning hair and overall hair loss. Many of us experience temporary hair loss during times of extreme stress and never truly realize what the cause is. The good news is that it can be remedied very easily. Once your body starts to feel healthier and rested your hormone levels begin to level out and your immune system will improve. All these changes will promote healthy hair regrowth. Do keep in mind that going up and down with these sleep cycles is not healthy. After a while of experiencing these extreme stages of unhealthy eating, rest and overall high stress it will become more difficult to regain your hair's health. We always suggest making sure you maintain certain practices to help your hair and body make it through these high stress periods. First and foremost always make sure you are hydrated. Drink plenty of water. Try to exercise at least 3 times a week. Even something as simple as a brisk walk will help you feel better and get some fresh oxygen into your system. Take a daily multivitamin. Vitamins, which include vitamin E and biotin, are great for hair and skin. Lastly try to catch up o lost sleep on the weekends. Remember, hair loss can be a sign of greater issues with your body. We cannot control stress in our lives, but we certainly can try to alleviate it when it comes on.
  4. How to Apply Your Skin Moisturizer

    Skin moisturizer is one of the top selling skin care products in the health and beauty market. Let's face it; we all want soft, radiant and youthful skin. What is the best way to maintain your skin young and soft? The answer is quite simple. To keep your skin soft, glowing and beautiful all you need to do is keep it hydrated! Yes, the right skin moisturizer can transform skin.

    Not all skin moisturizers are created the same. Some are too heavy and clog your pores. Others cause skin irritations. Some moisturizers are full of fragrances that dry out our skin. It is very important to remember that the skin on our bodies is just as sensitive as the skin on our face. Always look for skincare that is made for sensitive skin. These products are made with more natural ingredients. They also contain less chemicals and fragrances. Your skin moisturizer should treat your skin with the utmost care.

    How you apply your skin moisturizer can also make a big difference. Always remember that skin is most absorbent when it is slightly wet. The best time to apply your skin moisturizer is after your shower. Do not apply onto drenched skin. Lightly dry your skin so that you are about 80% dry. Then apply your moisturizer by gently massaging it into your skin in a circular motion. The circular motion will help to increase circulation and firmness.

    It is also important to moisturize at least two times a day. Morning and night are the best times to use a skin moisturizer. One of the moisturizers we have been receiving great reviews about lately is Lancome Nutrix Nourishing & Repairing Treatment Very Dry & Sensitive Skin. As we mentioned before, it is always great to use a sensitive skin moisturizer because they tend to be more natural. This heavy duty, extra gentle moisturizer helps to protect your skin from dryness and irritation. It also boosts smoothness and radiance. It is fragrance free and is wonderful for all year round. We have even started to use it on our hands.

    Maintaining healthy and youthful skin is quite simple when you understand how to make the most of your skincare. When it comes to skin moisturizer, it is always best to remember that moisture is key. Apply onto moist skin to maintain your skin hydrated all day and all night.

  5. 5 Best Shampoo Brands for Healthy Hair

    Your Guide for Finding the Right Shampoo for Your Hair Type
    The sad truth is that most manufacturers cut corners and use cheap synthetic ingredients when formulating their products. It saves them money and most consumers can't tell the difference. Common shampoo and conditioner ingredients such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) can damage the immune system, cause separation of skin layers, and inflame your skin leaving it dry, and irritated. SLS is found in about 90% of all hair care products, it is also found in harsh floor cleaners, engine degreasers, and car wash detergents—not exactly something you would want to put on your hair. You may wonder why your hair is unhealthy, but you'd never think to blame your shampoo and conditioner. We tend to forget how important choosing the right shampoo and conditioner can be for our hair health. We usually stick to lower-priced products and do little to no research on their ingredients. Many brands take advantage of this by including cheap fillers to cut production costs and pay individuals to write positive reviews on Amazon. This is one of the most harmful things you can do to your hair. Shampoos and conditioners are the foundation of our haircare routine, and they can have a profound effect on both texture and health. That's why it's critical to find products with high-quality ingredients that have been clinically tested, even if it means paying a little bit more.
