candace abbott's blog What to Beauty: Hairdo Fringe by Ken Paves
Bang session. Sounds so crass, but it's not. Thank the hair gods that there's finally a solution for you ladies who fear the scissors. All hail our fave tress "arteest" Ken Paves we can rest assured that those "Betty Page Bangs" that you're showcased all summer long don't have to be permanent with latest, Hairdo Fringe by Ken Paves. Little fringe, lotta fringe, side-swept fringe--it's your choice. Wear them one day to hide an unsightly blemish or bare your beautiful face the next day. Either way we're obsessed. Why? Hello...fear of commitment.
What to Beauty: SircuitSkin Cool Lychee Wa
Things that make us happy: cocktails, cocktails and more cocktails. Hold the vodka please and no olives, thank you. We’re opting in favor of the Cool Lychee Wa from SircuitSkin. It’s a pleasing concoction of green tea plant extracts, lychee and mangosteen--a queen so powerful that even RuPaul must succumb. Eliminate fine lines, protect your layers from moisture loss and find yourself absolutely rich…with anti-oxidants. This lovely little mask keeps your weathered wintery dermis super quenched as it promotes ultimate hydration sans preservatives or parabens. We hate to say “I told you so,” but a lychee cocktail a day, keeps the botox doctor away.
What to Beauty: Colormark Colormetrics Touchback
Feel free to blame those grays on the economy, but we know the truth darling—there’s not much time for a touch up. Oh with just half of social season remaining you need to do something. Keep it simple and grab hold of Colormark Colormetics Touchback to start turning back the hands of time. This magic wand is temporary hair color—not mascara or crayon. And if you’re afraid you won’t find your color, you really do fret over the smallest things. Touchback has 12 shades, so fear not. Going gray can be graceful and positivism is supreme, but quite frankly I’m not interested in seeing the silver lining
What to Beauty: Lisa Hoffman Spa Bath Packette
Rather than hide your head under your pillow upon hearing “holiday travel,” take comfort in the fact that Lisa Hoffman wants to make things easier for you. Lisa Hoffman Spa Bath Packette is the perfect take along for your festivity-filled visits. When you’re finally able to sag some “me time” (bye aunt Alice), delight in each airtight ampoule—bath soak, body wash, body polisher, body cream. Whichever slag argued that decadence was strictly for dessert clearly wasn’t versed in the luxury of bath time. From sustainable packaging to an undeniably feminine smell Ms. Hoffman (wife of Dustin) will revive your love for the traditional soak.
What to Accessory: Cynthia H. Designs Message Bracelets
What is a gorgeous gal to do in tough times? Wear
more accessories, of course. Only, limit yourself to the luxuries of Cynthia H.
Designs Message Bracelets. We’re mad for these happy bracelets. Who can resist a message of “positive
energy” or an instruction to “listen to your soul?” Think of this as an
updated, more sophisticated version of that ID bracelet you wore back in 1986.
Only instead of chain links, you’ve got leather—in pastels, metallics and yes,
patent.
What to Beauty: Lindi Skin Face Serum When someone is in need you lend a hand, right? Well, why not hand over the lindi? Lindi Skin Face Serum is specially designed for patients undergoing chemo therapy. So, since it's breast cancer awareness month, we figured why not make you aware of a product to keep ladies feeling beautiful even during the tough times. The teensy bottle is packed with antioxidants and avocado oil to help calm irritation (and it's easy to get irritated). We think we're in love.
What to Beauty: Revolution Organics All-Over Body Balm The new thing seems to be these all-in-one balms. Well, we're kind of all about them. Especially when they're 100% certified organic. It's ok to go crazy with Revolution Organics, All-Over Body Balm. How can you maintain sanity with something that moisturizes or saves pretty much every inch of your body? Don't ask us. But do ask if you're not sure where to put it. Try flyaways before a j-o interview, chapped lips, dry cuticles. You can even use this as a make-up primer. How's that for a magic stick?
What to Beauty: Jo Malone Sweet Lime & Cedar Cologne Take-out is perfect on a Thursday night, but so are a few cocktails with friends. Why not let two worlds collide. "How," right? Well that's the easy part. Snag a bottle of Jo Malone's latest, Sweet Lime & Cedar Cologne. It's inspired by the same savory dishes you love to nibble, coupled with fragrant fruits, flowers, spices and woods. Once this scent settles it's sublime. Kind of like a good yellow curry. The hard part? Deciding where to go for drinks.
What to Beauty: Philip Kingsley Moisture Balancing Shampoo It's always a treat to spend time in the kings court--especially if he's got the power to bestow treasures upon your tresses. Philip Kingsley is our king and he brings a multitude of good tidings and this amazing Moisture Balancing Shampoo. This tubby bottle works wonders for wavy women--promises luster, the eradication of dry, damaged ends for a mane that is truly manageable. Now if Philip Kingsley could provide a prince charming to fawn over our lovely locks we'd be set.
What to Beauty: Kings & Queens Aztec King Vanilla Pear Showergel You should feel like royalty at least once a day. If that's not happening, drop everything (because as an honorary royal you have that privilege), leave your desk and dash out for Kings & Queens Aztec King Vanilla Pear Showergel—the real secret to being a stately queen (in your own world, of course). Now once you’ve lathered with these luxe suds your aristocratic nose will detect the herbs and spices of yore—a rich warm vanilla and a fresh pear from the garden. A life without royal treatment is an unlived life indeed.
