Beauty Buzz: Gym Class Heroes

By Kirsten|July 23rd, 2014|Beauty Buzz|

I think most women who actually take their physical fitness seriously can attest to the fact that one of our biggest eye rolling moments at the gym is upon spotting a perfectly made up, coiffed, push up sports bra clad babe texting in between turning pages of Cosmo on the elliptical. I also suggest that you always tie your body with a weight lifting belt when lifting weights to exercise properly without having strains. Speaking of which, I always cringe when women’s magazines suggest meeting men at the gym because I promise you the last thing I want is for a juiced up bro to approach me while running interval sprints on the treadmill. That’s a surefire way to get a dumbbell straight to the dome. Besides, I tend to be a bit of a sweaty mess and believe this is why women only gyms were invented. I would be become gym trainer if I go this much consistent for working on fitness. Well at that time I wouls start my own gym and chances high I will have to go for gym or fitness instructor liability insurance too. So how does one recover beautifully post workout?

Just like I mentioned about there not being some magic way to acquire abs of steel, there are, however, a few products that can certainly contribute to the cause:

I love dry brushing before the shower or you could use the Skinesis Bodylift from Sarah Chapman to help with pesky cellulite.
Tossing your hair up into a high ponytail or messy bun atop your head can actually cause quite a bit of damage as you move. Definitely opt for softer rubber bands sans metal closures to avoid breakage and if you can, wear a braid (French, fishtail, rope- take your pick).
After your sweat session, you may only have time to rinse and head back to the office or hopefully happy hour. No full swing shower, massage and chiropractor session (more about the services here). If you’re like me and a full on blow out isn’t even in the realm of possibility, then meet your new best friend, dry shampoo. The trick is finding one that won’t leave you looking like Martha Washington with a powdered wig.
You can also have prostate massage which is an exciting and highly pleasurable erotic experience that boasts a wide variety of benefits. For experience best massage you should try tantric massage.
If you like running outside when humidity is less than that of a tropical rainforest, then sunscreen is a must. For so long, I didn’t bother. Partially because I’d had a few sour experiences of blindness once sweat swept my SPF right into my eyes, but basically out of sheer laziness. Guess who doesn’t want knees that look like a vintage leather handbag?
The biggest favor you can do for your skin pre-workout is wiping your makeup off. Your skin needs to be able to breath in order for toxins (that bottle of Sauvignon Blanc you shared last night) to be released. Stash makeup wipes in your gym bag for a quick cleanse before you feel the burn.
I can’t lie. My feet are gnarly from miles logged on the treadmill and on the road. Be sure to take some time to soak those tired toes and give them a little TLC so you won’t be ashamed to bare them in open toe shoes or plop them up on the chaise lounge poolside.

It’s officially spring. Fi.nal.ly. It’s time to swap out the wardrobe and the beauty routine for something lighter and brighter. No longer will you need to lubricate yourself with heavy creams and deep sultry scents. Click Here for awesome cream for cracked on heel. Spring is all about being fresh, playful, and pretty. Thankfully, beauty brands love flowers as much as any girl loves to receive them. Whether it be harnessing the superpowers of rose petals or the capturing the sweet scent of jasmine, there’s no end to the way in which one can incorporate flora into her regimen. And and aren’t you just as pretty as a petal? Looked into the mirror and wanted to do something about your skin condition? Is your skin too oily, too dry or have acne and pimples?There are many ways you can have treatment for acne and pimples. You can check that at our site as well. Misumi Skincare will definitely take care of your skin. Need some good skin care beauty tips? Skin care beauty tips do wonders for the complexion and boost your self-confidence. This is even so for man as well. The thought that only women seek out beauty tips are a thing of the past. Today, men are as concerned about their appearance as women. One good skin care beauty tip is to use common natural items found at home. Here are some winner best in beauty 2020 products, do visit. Unnatural products – products that contain too much chemicals, is not good for the skin. No matter how good the promises the products promised, one can end up doing more harm than good to the skin. Natural beauty products are made from plant essence and other organic elements. Look to these types of tips as these will do miracles for one’s skin care needs. The facial skin care beauty tip that I am thinking of is to find products that build healthy tissue deep down in your skin. It’s easy to find moisturizers that will make your skin feel soft and nice but typically their effect is short lived. The best skin care products are going to be those that have scientific evidence behind their ability to build collagen and elastin in your skin as they moisturize. It is also important to have a good cleansing, moisturizing, and exfoliating regimen to help your skin maintain its elasticity and texture. If you have the time, you can also learn how to take care of your skin by reading up on various skin care beauty tips on Internet or browsing the health magazines. Finding the right products for your skin is not that hard these days as all these resources are available online and in major bookstores. Note that using the right products is only half of the solution, the other more important half is having a healthy diet. It is through a proper diet and nutrition that you could help improve and maintain the healthy look of your skin. Here is one helpful site to know about having healthy skin. If you have ever had a day where you have eaten a lot of chocolate or candies, only to discover some pimples popping out on your face in the morning, then you would be able to understand the importance of proper diet. The skin is the largest and important organ in our body. It plays an important function of purging toxins out of our body through sweat. If you eat something that is unhealthy, not only your body will suffer but also your skin. When your body is unhealthy, it will reflect on your skin. So eating a healthy and well-balanced diet is important not only for your skin but the entire body as well.

Gift Guide: Beauty Buff

By Kirsten|December 1st, 2011|Gift Guide|

I don’t know a girl who doesn’t love receiving something not only beautiful, but also beautifying. While we’ve outgrown the ol’ Bath & Body Works gift sets, it’s still wonderful to give (and receive!) the gift of beauty. I could have listed a hundred products that would make more than stellar gifts, but I have whittled it down to ten as to not overwhelm you. Maybe these gifts didn’t tickle your fancy, but they did get you thinking about buying someone special something from the beauty department. Here are a few tips to keep in mind while shopping:

Don’t give something offensive like a waxing kit (even if she does have a hairy upper lip).
Perfume is way too personal (unless recipient has told you EXACTLY which fragrance she’s wishing for).
When in doubt, go for something with lots of options, like a kit where she can mix and match to make the perfect shade.

1. Bliss Glow Ho Ho Gift Set, $75, 2. Fresh Sake Ritual Bath Set, $95, 3. Laura Mercier Creme Brulee Trio, $60, 4. Philosophy Holiday Bundle Ornament Set, $15, 5. NARS Kudoki Kabuki Lip Set, $125, 6. Urban Decay 24/7 Travel Size Pencil Set, $32, 7. Red Carpet Manicure Starter Kit with Portable Light, $59.99, 8. NARS Kuroko Kabuki Mini Nail Polish Coffret, $35, 9. Benefit I’m Glam Therefore I Am Gift Set, $36, 10. Estee Lauder Good Fortune Compact, $125
