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)

Let’s talk about your beauty regimen and dental health. This is an area that’s often overlooked due to loving makeup, hair, and clothing. Having a beautiful, healthy smile is just as important because it can enhance your total look!
We have to love our teeth regardless of what we wear or our favorite lipstick. I am an active beverage drinker due to the fact that I’m always on the go. One tip that I learned (from various dental articles) is that coffee, tea, and other beverages can stain your teeth. The only beverage that doesn’t have staining properties is water and over the course of a lifetime we (all) need a professional teeth whitening treatment.
I was fortunate to receive a package from Smile Brilliant to help restore my smile. The process was very easy with AMAZING results! You will not find an easier teeth whitening system (with results) for an affordable price.
Here’s the teeth whitening steps:
1. Create the mold of your teeth with impression material.
2. Ship back to Smile Brilliant (don’t forget the return shipping label.)
3. Open the mold package and wait for use after a few hours of drinking a beverage.
4. Use the desensitizing gel to assist with potential teeth enamel burning; this will not occur if you wait a few hours after drinking a beverage.
5. Fill your teeth molds with the whitening system and that’s it! You can leave it on for 15 minutes or as long as you like. I used my teeth molds in a variety of time frames but the best results happened overnight. I loved waking up to a whitened smile; then flossing, brushing, and using a mouth wash.
I STRONGLY encourage everyone to try this system! Let’s not forget that teeth whitening is actually cosmetic and can be very expensive. The use of “other” teeth whitening systems can also remove teeth enamel but Smile Brilliant molds are fitted to your teeth which makes a difference.
Smile Brilliant Kit: * Teeth Whitening Trays * Carrying Case * Impression Material * 3-Way, pre-paid postage * Custom dental models * Professional teeth whitening gel * Desensitizing gel

We all know that Summer is the season to have fun in the sun and to look cool by the pool. But ladies, it’s time to be savvy with hydrating hair products in the season where you’re bound to do the most damage to your strands!

I have always been a fan of Covergirl cosmetics. Their brand embodies the stylish, care-free beauty guru. She’s the girl next door wearing a bold nail color and likes to purchase an eyeshadow quad for a reasonable price!
The latest product to join the Covergirl Collection is the Super Sizer by LashBlast® Mascara and Intensify Me! Liquid Eyeliner by LashBlast. I received both products from the company and could not wait to start using them.
If you’re a consistent reader of this site and follow my Instagram account, you’re aware of my battle to intensify the eye area. I am constantly seeking quality products to enhance my eyelashes and top lid.
Style + Life + Fashion Review –
Number one, the Super Sizer by LashBlast Mascara has an amazing small wand that enables the mascara to grasp every lash. This gives volume and it’s a waterproof product. We’re traveling to the beach or hanging out by the pool and that doesn’t mean we can’t look fabulous!
Number two, the Liquid Eyeliner by LashBlast has a really cool tip…it’s actually flat. That’s important because beauty girls can draw an accurate line on their top lid. The liner is also sensitive to the eyes which is very important this time of the year.
If you don’t believe me, purchase and try for yourself. I guarantee that you will be pleased with both products. Share your experience with me in the comments section or email kim@stylelifefashion.com

About eb5 Skincare
Based in Portland, Oregon, eb5 Skincare is a family-owned business that dates back to 1904 when pharmacist Samuel Heldfond began creating life-changing remedies for customers of his apothecary.

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.
