Spoil Yourself Must-Haves

by Beyond Beauty Basics


Skincare 1024x683You’re in the mood to shop aren’t you? Of course you are because retail therapy brings a smile to anyone’s face. We all deserve a few treats and when they’re on special offer even more so. However, since most of us don’t have platinum cards and bottomless pits of money, we’re going to have to make do with the basics – the basics of making yourself feel good. Simply translated – all manner of delectable bath, body and face products, from lotions and potions to eye shadows and tints. So if you’re planning to splurge a bit, here’s the list you’ll need to consult.

Body

Amazing Grace Perfumed Buffing Wash by Philosophy
A long-lasting creamy indulgence that smells perfect and not overpoweringly flowery. It’s usually ideal for sweet 16th birthday presents, but would definitely go down well at Christmas too.

Massage 1280x853Chocolate truffle crème body wash by by Laura Mercier
The clue is in the name… Chocolate truffles minus the calories – this is what winter is all about.

High-intensity hand cream by Bliss
This is what spas in New York swear by – it’s a heady and heavy slap of macadamia nut oil, which is very easily absorbed. These creams double up as handy 60th birthday ideas for your loving grandma.

Face

Detox clay mask with rosemary and honey by Chantecaille
This deluxe and expensive goo works wonders on reducing the size of pores, without drying out your skin. A must for winter.

Action red lipstick by Dior
The starkness of winter demands a bit of colour and what better than a brownish bright red lipstick?

Crème de Rose moisturiser by Terry
If vintage is your thing, this is the cream for you. The scent of rose is mild and fragrant, and the moisturiser itself is delicate and not oily.

Hair

Moisture velvet nourishing shampoo by Shu Uemura
Cold air kills hair, but to its rescue comes Shu Uemura’s luxury shampoo. This does wonders for split ends, without making your scalp greasy.

Masquintense by Kérastase
The world swears by this rich shampoo that never fails to deliver. If there’s just one product you must buy, this is it.

Rejuvenating oil by Philip B
Oil treatments aren’t that common, but it’s something you should consider the next time you’re at the spa, or spending a long cold evening at home. This is a combination of almond peanut and sesame oils to be applied to the ends for some extreme deep conditioning.

Smack that DHT Buildup with Nioxin Scalp & Hair Care and a Giveaway!

by Paul Baranda


Nioxin Hair and Scalp Care System

It’s crazy how within a few months, your look can really change when your hair starts to thin. This is definitely a sign of aging that I have been praying to never come, and I’m not even that old yet! At the early age of 28, seeing a receding hairline motivated me enough to buy Rogaine which I’ve used quite a few times, but without consistency due to being discouraged from not seeing any results. Regardless it seemed like my hair continued to thin and I pretty much gave up on it. However, I have been recently trying out Nioxin System 6 as a recommendation from a stylist friend.

Nioxin Scalp and Hair Care is a system that includes a full head-on treatment for hair-loss. The Cleanser, better known to me as “the magic shampoo”, is great especially when you use a good amount of hair product like I do everyday. It really helped remove any residue that stayed on my scalp and apparently toxins as well. The conditioner is great too, and the scalp treatment is a daily leave-in which has many nutrients, antioxidants and protects against DHT buildup- a true enemy to my hair follicles! I kind of wish I had started this earlier when I HAD the hair to fight for! (I suggest you use this as a preventative treatment too, while you still have that hair!) Well, after 2 weeks it seems that my hair looks healthier and “happy.” I’ve never really noticed it before, but it just looks nourished and rejuvenated somehow. It’s a bit early to say if my hair is starting to look fuller, though that really is what I’m hoping. I’m just going to stick witht the regimen as my stylist friend suggests, and continue to monitor any progress. Healthy happy hair and scalp leads to fuller looking hair… Right? Everything is going well so far, so thanks Nioxin!

Oh and Nioxin is sponsoring a giveaway today so you can have the chance to try it out for yourself! All you have to do is leave a comment and tell us about your first hair thinning/loss moment or experience and we’ll choose 10 lucky winners to have their own system! This giveaway contest ends December 7, 2010 so be sure to leave a comment below!

Home Spa Treatments: Brazilian Peel’s 30% Glycolic Acid Formula

by Jennifer Long-Levy


at-home-brazilian-peelI have to admit that at first, I was pretty intimidated by the Brazilian Peel by Advanced Home Actives.

I mean – glycolic acid is acid, right?   I’ve always wanted to try a glycolic peel at the spa, or the dermatologists office.  However, I’ve always been chicken and plus it’s such a chore to schedule an appointment (and likely rush there because I’m running late at work!).

The idea intrigued me, thought.  As I surpassed 30, then 31… well who doesn’t want bright and healthy skin?  Glycolic peels can help exfoliate away your large pores, sun spots, fine lines, and and old acne scars.

Until Brazilian Peel, most at-home treatments only contained about 10% glycolic acid.  So for the best results, it was either suck it up and go to the spa, or try using those weaker treatments over and over!

The reason why most peels were only 10% glycolic acid is pretty simple.   Most glycolic peels are a two step process.  Step one is the application of the acid solution, and step two is a second solution that neutralizes the acid.  Let’s face it… we’re not professionals, and if I’ve learned anything from watching my friends experiment with at-home hair color, perms, or chemical straighteners… lots of us believe more is better.  So it’s safe to assume that an untrained person (like myself), may not time the second application right.  This could result in either leaving it on too long and burning the skin, or not leaving it on long enough to see results.

Brazilian Peel is the first 30% glycolic acid, medical strength peel for at-home use. 5x stronger than other retail products, this unique new Brazilian style peel is clinically proven to visibly brighten, smooth, firm and tone skin for a more youthful appearance. All the benefits of a professional peel, without the professional!

Brazilian Peel is so easy to use.  Amazingly, it’s just one step.  This eliminates the guesswork involved.   The peel comes in a double syringe, and you dispense two solutions: the 30% glycolic peel, and a neutralizing serum.  The serum completely neutralizes the acid’s action after ten minutes.  This means you get maximum results while reducing the risk or messing it up or overdoing it.

I’ve tried it myself, with glowing results.  My husband said my skin looked radiant (yes he actually used that word), and one of my coworkers did a double-take and told me I looked “so well-rested!”  I noticed my skin looks more even, softer, and brighter.

In addition to 30% glycolic acid, it also Brazilian Acai berry extract, an antioxidant that helps counteract free radical damage.  You can buy Brazilian Peel online at Advanced Home Interactives, Amazon.com, or find it at your local Sephora.  I just stocked up on the 4 pack for $78.  That makes it only $19.50 per treatment – way too good to pass up!
