Here's to 2009!!!!

All this talk of the ball dropping since it's New Year's Eve always makes me giggle(you would think I'm 12!) but then the very real concerns of being 32 bring the somber realization that father time is indeed stomping across each & every one of our faces! So here are some easy steps(resolve to do them!) for you my beauties that will make a difference in fighting the signs of aging.

1)Remove your make- up every night (yes even tonight!)

2)Exfoliate at least 1 x week (try something quick & easy like our bestselling Kate Somerville Exfolikate)

3)Hydrate!(&no your diet coke doesn't count)Look for a serum with hyaluronic acid like Skin Ceutical's Hydrating B5 Gel for a glow!

4) Use protection (SPF that is) I don't care if you're just running out for a second. I never leave the house without SPF 30 on face, hands & decollete. Try Jan Marini SPF 30 Antioxidant Lotion - it's my favorite & the only one that doesn't break me out!

These 4 steps will make a real difference in prevention- remember I always have your best beauty at heart! Cheers to a divine 2009!

Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M

Joyeux Noel!

Merry Christmas My Beauties! I hope you all had a blessed holiday! I'm sitting here blogging content as a clam while watching my favorite holiday movie, Love Actually, wearing my pjs and my new Tory Burch Reva black patent flats from Santa! They are perfection! I also just watched the finale of 'Blush- The Search for the Next Great Make-up Artist.' I'm thrilled with the fact that the reality series really showed what a challenge it is that we as make-up artists face(pun intended) while working on 3 D canvases (which is you!)Nolan, the winner, was also my pick- so talented and gracious and calm- and trust me it's hard to keep your cool when under time constraints. Check it out if you can and have a passion for make-up! So as the count down begins to the New Year may you all see your true beauty both inside and out! Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M

PS-Stay tuned for my review on the No! No! hair remover(my treat to myself for the holidays!)...Even as an esthetician, my brunette self will never stop in my quest to be hair free!

You like Me, You really like Me!

Happy Holidays to All of my Beauties!

Today I actually had a new client who said she reads my blog! It was a special moment- I think it brings the tally to 3! To reward her, I gave her the best brows ever! There are so many beauty blogs out there- I actually have a friend who is an unofficial the blog queen( one of those so on top of everything girls you kind of want to hurt her-you know the type!). I'm not ashamed to say I have blog envy...But I will work on making mine more consistent I promise my sweets- then total world domination awaits! Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M
