Pink Sugar

Stylish and lively, with a distinctive personality, Pink Sugar takes you on a journey through the pleasures and flavors of childhood with a playful blend of vanilla and caramel.

See, I told you it came in the female version.  Everyone compliments me on this perfume whenever i wear it. It has a complete collection to accompany it if you like.  Some of the products include, Scrub, Lotion, Cream, Roll on fragrance, and hair spray.

You can find this product at Nordstrom or Sephora.

Blue Sugar

Aquolina’s first foray into men’s fragrance opens with a delightful harmony of caramelized sugar and vanilla blended with heady notes of cedar and tonka bean. The heart of the fragrance is rich with energetic notes of licorice, patchouli, lavender, and coriander, freshened with crisp bergamot and mandarin, and finished with soothing notes of anise. Blue Sugar is a fragrance of contrasts – fun and effervescent, yet supremely masculine.

I love this cologne……It smells so yummy.  Its like hot sugar. The great thing about this brand is that they also have a perfume called Pink Sugar.  You and your man can match.  I know he and i do…and we like it!

Alternative to traditional bronzer and self tanner. Per-fekt Body Perfection Gel is a multi-functional “skin perfector” for the body, body treatment, and sun-kissed glow in one.

The modern formulation of Body Perfection Gel glides on effortlessly to instantly per-fekt and enhance the appearance of the legs, arms, décolleté, or anywhere the body needs perfection. Ultimately leaving the body sexy, healthy, and smooth with a sun-kissed glow.
This is the first body formulation to contain Hyaluronic Filling Spheres that hydrate the skin and help firm, tone, and improve the skin’s elasticity and suppleness. Skin tones are softened to reveal an even and smooth complexion. The formula is fast drying, non streaking, and paraben-free.

This tantalizing scent blends energizing espresso with indulgent chocolate for a downright addictive result. Each product contains deeply hydrating ingredients, such as Aloe Vera and Jojoba, for delectably soft skin.

With a hint of chocolate smell you will have him glued to your neck.  Sweet but yet not too sweet with the espresso smell mixed in with the chocolate.

This is a signature Sephora product.  Look for it and many others at your local store or online.

For the ultimate, translucent “finishing touch” to your makeup, Mineral Veil melts into your skin, infusing it with softness and light, giving the look you see with a soft focus camera lens. Buff on Mineral Veil over bareMinerals Foundation to lend extra staying power.
Completely sheer and ideal for all skin tones, Mineral Veil gently absorbs oil and minimizes the appearance of lines and pores without the buildup of pressed or loose powders that contain parabens, waxes, dyes and binders.

This comes in three colors….Feather light, Mineral Veil, and Tinted Mineral Veil.  I do not recommend the tinted tone unless you are really dark.  You may feel you want it so that it will compliment your tan or make you look tanner, but all it does it make your makeup look wrong. Go with one of the other two colors.  The feather light gives a bit of a sparkle.  The choice is yours.

Technique is everything when it comes to creating a camera-ready, flawless look. So imagine all the prettifying possibilities you’d score if a makeup artist’s skills were wrapped up in one innovative tool. Meet your new makeup must-have: beautyblender® —the makeup sponge designed to create absolute complexion perfection. This award-winning, hot pink number gives you amazing coverage and blending capabilities with its easy-to-use shape and suede-like texture. Use the wide end to blot on makeup and blend effortlessly. Or, work with the pointed end for hard-to-reach spots or delicate areas around the eyes. There’s no foundation line or eyeshadow crease that can hide from the beautyblender sponge’s super-blending powers. Get ready to absorb the benefits.

Buy this at www.Sephora.com, or at the nearest one to you. It runs $39.95 for the set.

Fake tanning is something to do on your own and in private.  Focusing on making it look as natural and real as possible.  Start by purchasing the right tanner for you.  I recommend a spray tan. You never have to touch it with your hands, which saves on the orange palm look.  A good one to use is St. Tropez.  They specialize in all sorts of self tanners.

Always exfoliate first and get all dead skin off of your body.  Secondly stand in the shower and procede to spray every inch of your body at every angle you can image.  You will feel the product as it lands on your skin, so do your best to put the same amount in each area.  Continue to spary back and forth as evenly as possible.  Do not apply moisturizer before or after tanning yourself as this will make things very uneven.  In the morning take a shower and moisturize as usual.

I recommend doing two treatments to get the best look.

FYI…Self tanner dries out your skin, so moisturize double time

I have found that making your own home remedy microdermabrasion can be very satisfying.  When in need or you have run out, or maybe you just don’t feel like paying the high prices at the department stores. (I fully agree) Then why not make your own.  It is very simple……take regular white sugar and mix with olive oil to make a consistent paste.  This really works and smells good.  Your skin will feel super smooth and Rosy.  The ingredients are always found in your home, they are natural, and FREE because you have already previously purchased them.

I have an additional recipe that i learned from Pamela Anderson, and i will post that soon also. 

Look Beautiful and Have a great day!

I find that this product works well when used consistently. Everyday use shows improvement and wanted results.  A smooth surface.  It does dry the skin a bit, but i like seeing all of my impurities shrink up.
