Sally Hansen Reformulated Miracle Gel Top Coat and Shades

These days, bigger is better when it comes to beauty. Following the major success of the first Miracle Gel launch, Sally Hansen has done it again, developing the new & improved volumizing Miracle Gel™ Top Coat – adding to the award-winning Sally Hansen Miracle Gel collection: the most buzzed about at-home nail system and the closest thing to a salon gel manicure at home.

When partnered with the Miracle Gel™ shades, Miracle Gel™ Top Coat volumizes as it protects. The Top Coat formula delivers 2x the volume to your manicure – creating dramatically fuller-looking nails with a high-gloss, mirror shine finish.

The result: the look of a gel manicure at home, without the trip to a salon! Miracle Gel’s simple application takes just two steps. First, apply two thin coats of Miracle Gel™ color to clean, bare nails. Then, apply one coat of the new Miracle Gel™Top Coat. Natural light does the rest, creating a manicure that resembles a UV / LED cured gel polish and up to 14 days of color and shine. The next best thing to a salon gel manicure, without using an UV / LED light AND removes easily with regular nail polish remover.

To coincide with the release of the new top coat, Sally Hansen announces a total of 20 new vibrant colors of Miracle Gel™.

The Tribal Vibe collection adds seven new sun-baked shades to the permanent line up: Cream of the Crop (ivory with a hint of warmth), Tribal Sun (fiery coral like the setting sun), Rhythm & Blue (mirrors the hue of a bright blue sky), Totem-ly Yours (an appealing dusty rose), Per-Suede ( the color of rich reddish leather), Terra-Coppa (melds the gleam of copper with the earthy appeal of pottery) and Buffalo Nickel (a cool, classic silver white).

Another new collection, Boho Chic, brings together seven festival-ready saturated shades for free spirits everywhere: Rhapsody Red (updates classic cardinal red with a blue undertone), Tipsy Gypsy (a bubbly, bright pink), Boho a-Go-Go ( a deep, creamy eggplant), Beatnik ( a statement-making cobalt), Mintage (a medium-toned mint), Fish-teal Braid (an aquatic turquoise), Miss Wanderlust (packs colorful glitter into a soft stunning coral

In addition, limited-edition duo packs pair the new Miracle Gel™ top coat with one of six summery colors: Blue Hue (a subdued, milk-glass blue), Teal Twin (a dark gemstone teal), Geo-Mint-ric (a vibrant spearmint), Get it Bright (the color of freshly sliced watermelon), Block Party (a tigerlily orange, tinged with coral),Up the Ante ( a medium-toned plum)

butter LONDON Cosmetics & Nail Lacquer – Beauty Review

butter LONDON is expanding beyond nail lacquer into cosmetics that encourages creativity, while remaining devoted to colour without compromise.

I was super excited to receive a package from the company. The items in my box included:

Lippy Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayon

Union Jack Black Eye Pencil

ICONOLAST Mega Volume Lacquer Mascara

Nail LACQUER LadyBird

The Review –

I started with my weekly manicure and decided to wear the LadyBird Nail Lacquer. The color was true to shade (of what’s shown in the bottle) and had a high gloss. It also paints nicely and lasted for a few days. I was pleased with the results of my manicure.

The butter London Lip Crayon was amazing; an unexpected surprise. The crayon was extremely soft, gorgeous color, and the top is actually a pencil sharpener. I like to apply makeup daily so this makes my process faster; simply open the top and sharpen your lip crayon.

How often do we purchase an eye pencil and the color’s difficult to apply. In my case, I like to wear black eyeliner to open my eyes because that’s the shade of my lashes. The Wink Eye Pencil (again) was easy to use and provided a beautiful line. Here’s a tip, when using a good eye pencil there’s no need to heat the top of the pencil!

The last goodie in my package was the Mega Volume Mascara. This mascara has a unique wand with a small ball at the end for your bottom lashes. Aside from the fact my lashes received a “mega” boost, my bottom lashes gained volume as well.

I am a huge fan of the butter London Cosmetics and Nail Lacquer Collection. I hope to share more of their products with you in the future. Visit the website to purchase items for your summer look!

Dr. Doris Day and Mary Erhard – Rosacea Treatment & How To Break Up With Your Makeup Contest

Style + Life + Fashion had the opportunity to interview Dermatologist Dr. Doris Day. She is the best-selling author of the book Forget the Facelift and a frequent guest on Good Morning America, The View and the Today Show. Dr. Day is also a clinical associate professor of dermatology at New York University where she was presented with the award for Dedication and Excellence in Teaching Dermatology.

Dr. Day can answer any of your skincare questions, as she discusses rosacea and it’s symptoms. She will be also be joined by Mary Erhard from the National Rosacea Society.

BACKGROUND:

How we physically see ourselves can affect everything from our confidence to how we interact with others. For the 16 million Americans living with the chronic skin disorder rosacea, struggling with their appearance can be a daily battle for many reasons. Since the symptoms of rosacea and acne can appear similar, some people with rosacea misdiagnose themselves as having acne and end up inadvertently treating the wrong condition without success.

In fact, in a recent survey of rosacea patients, nearly half misidentified their rosacea as acne before they were ultimately diagnosed. This can lead to inappropriate use of acne treatments, which has the potential to further exacerbate sufferers’ skin. The survey also found that nearly 30% of rosacea patients wear more makeup now than before they were diagnosed with the condition, which can make symptoms even worse.

Brave Williams and Embellish Fragrance

Bigger, Better and Braver…that is Christina “Brave” William’s approach to 2015, and she is doing just that with our biggest announcement yet for our client B Fragranced, a trending fragrance line. Reality TV star of “R&B Divas” and Billboard hit artist, Brave is the new official ambassador of B Fragranced

Brave’s new album “Fearless” is fitting for both her personality as well as the fearlessness that women feel with Embellish Eau de Parfum’s scent.

The essence of class, romance, and glamour, Embellish embodies all of the characteristics of female sophistication. Indulgent yet light, the fragrance infuses sparkling notes of apple and peach with a splash of citron. With B Fragranced’s mission to encourage women to embrace their feminine individuality, the effervescent notes of jasmine and honeysuckle balance the sultry base of soft amber and sandalwood to make Embellish any woman’s signature scent. Once the fragrance touches your skin, it will adjust to your body chemistry and enhance your natural scent in order to emit a fragrance that is simply your own.

Embellish retails for $54.00 for a 1.7 oz. bottle and $76.00 for a 3.4 oz. bottle at www.bfragranced.com.

Summer is just beginning, and Embellish is the ideal summer scent for any woman. Whether it is a birthday, anniversary or any other special occasion, a new fragrance is the perfect gift, and a one-of-a-kind scent that adjusts to each woman is the perfect way to celebrate her. Show your loved one how much you appreciate her individuality with a gift that’s as unique as she is.

The creator founder of B Fragranced, Marilyn Jones, lost her mother to breast cancer at an early age. Her only true memory of her mother was her mother’s scent. This sparked a passion to create a fragrance as unique as the woman who wears it. The new face of B Fragranced, Brave, is persevering through her father’s diagnosis of prostate cancer and early signs of dementia. Fate brought these two fearless women together, and with a product that they both believe in, they are working side by side to empower all women.

Epsom Salt Beauty Tips – Beach Survival Guide

As beach season draws near, here’s an unusual idea that could prove useful: Epsom salt. Doctors say it can help treat sunburn and it also helps with summer beauty, as you’ll see in the two news releases below, which quote experts who have worked with celebrities:

One quotes a celebrity skin care guru: Summer Skin Care Tips who says you should exfoliate before going out in the sun to rev up circulation, facilitating the elimination of toxins or impurities that may be trapped in the skin. In addition to detoxification, Ole Henriksen says exfoliation leaves the skin luminous, smooth and soft in texture, and it removes any excess dead skin, allowing for better absorption and easier application of sunscreen or lotion.

Here’s Henriksen’s recipe for an at-home dermabrasion resurfacing treatment he calls the “Shower smoothie:”

Ø Ingredients: 4 oz. of Epsom salt, 4 oz. coffee grounds, 1 TSP eucalyptus oil and enough sesame oil to form a smooth paste.

Ø Mix the Epsom salt and coffee grounds in a medium bowl, then add the oils and stir thoroughly until you have a smooth, but not runny paste.

Ø Get in the shower, get wet and turn off the water. Use the entire palm of each hand to vigorously scrub your body for several minutes, from your neck to your feet.

Ø Afterward, just rinse and glow. Your skin will feel smooth, and you’ll notice an immediate lifting and constricting of the skin.

The other quotes an award-winning celebrity manicurist Summer Beauty Tips who recommends bi-weekly pedicures to ease aches and pains, reduce swelling and disinfect blisters or lesions.

Marsha Bialo’s suggestions:

Ø Give your feet a comfortable place to rest by folding a bath towel and positioning it at the bottom of a bucket.

Ø Mix half a cup of Epsom salt with some warm, soapy water to soften skin and calluses and dry out the bacteria from blisters.

Ø Remove old polish with a cotton pad soaked with nail polish remover, cut nails straight across with clippers then file them square to remove sharp edges.

Ø Soak for five minutes, dip a file into the water and use it to smooth your heels, the balls of your feet and the outer edges of your pinkie toes.

Ø Add Calcium Gel Fortifier or Ridge Filling Base Coat by China Glaze followed by a bright, summery coat of polish, and then finish with Seche Vite top coat for a lasting shine.

SALLY HANSEN INTRODUCES BIG PEELOFF BASE COAT^TM

Everyone wants a manicure that looks perfect, resists smudges, and removes easily. Traditionally, it hasn’t always been easy to achieve those desired results. Now, however, Sally Hansen introduces a nail essentials to simplify and improve the at-home manicure regimen: Big Peel Off Base Coat^TM .

For nail-art aficionados, glitter girls, and anyone else who lives for regular manicures, Big Peel Off Base Coat changeseverything. Nail polish remover can be harsh on nails, leaving them dry and brittle—and therefore, prone to breakage. Hard-to-remove special effects such as glitters, textures, and shimmers can damage nails further by scraping the nail surface and can be a time consuming removal process.

That all changes with the introduction of Big Peel Off Base Coat^TM. This fast, convenient easy base coat makes it easy to remove glitters and other special effect polishes in a single step. Just paint on the base coat, which quickly dries to a transparent finish. Apply nail polish as usual and enjoy the manicure. When it’s time for a change, simply peel off the polish in one fluid movement. No scrubbing, soaking, or fussing—just a clean, healthy-looking nail.

PRICE & AVAILABILITY: Sally Hansen’s new Big Peel Off Base Coat^TM , SRP $5.99 each, will be available in June 2015 at chain drugstores and mass retailers nationwide.
