Who wants beautiful skin?



I'd like to take the time and share some information I have on some wonderful skincare products. There are so many different directions I can take with this subject and instead of doing a generic general synopsis I would like to take my time and dissect the different areas of skin care and focus on specifics. So with that said, here we go!

I've been doing an experiment over the last few months that I'm excited to share with all of you. Kline-Becker, the makers of StriVectin-SD, sent me a very generous package with several different pieces of their products. I had always been curious about the "miracle cream" that I heard so much about. Especially since I've had a couple of kids and genetics proved to be unfortunately cruel with my UN-elastic skin. The stretch marks came and never went away. Faded of course but still remained. I decided to give StriVectin a go. I have to admit, I was totally skeptical and pretty sure it wasn't going to work. But I made a decision to remain faithful to my new regime of applying the light minty smelling cream on at least 3-5 times a week. I liked the consistency of the cream right away. It was light weight and absorbed very quickly. The scent was light enough for me to still wear my other favorite body lotions (which I'll post about later) and perfumes. After about six weeks I was personally able to see a difference. Crazy, huh?!



Whoa! This stuff really works. So I started using StriVectin-SD eye cream along with a powerful antioxdient face moisturizer they sent me. Even with the summer sun taking a toll on my skin and delicate eyes from all the squinting I think I can really see a difference. My skin looks pretty and clear and my pores are tiny and almost nonexistent! Gosh, I am so impressed by these products. I also have StriVectin HC and NE which are hand treatments to help with dark spots and the look of aging hands. I may not necessarily need these two pieces of product but I am loving how soft my hands feel and how good it makes my nails and cuticles look. Especially when I am touching the faces of brides and other clients. My hands are very important in how they look and feel.

My expectations of StriVectin have been far surpassed--to say the least. I recommend this product to anyone who has stretch marks that make them feel uncomfortable in the skin that they are in. This product can really make a big difference. If stretch marks aren't an issue for you but some fine lines around the eyes are, you won't be disappointed in the eye cream. Seriously, these products are amazing. I am currently using them all. I even just started using some deep wrinkly serum on a scar that I have to see if it will smooth it out at all. I'll keep you posted on my my findings. Go check out this stuff at: StriVectin!

He thought I was 24!!!!

I am literally weeks away from turning 30 years old and to tell you the truth….very excited about it. I’m not all caught up in feeling like I’m getting old and all that hoopla. I’ ve always thought I’ ve looked young for my age and have enjoyed growing up and maturing. I was taken aback recently when somebody I see on a regular basis due to work related duties commented on me being the same age as they were after telling me they were 24 years old….I was shocked. I was like, “honey, you’re just a baby!” and he commented back about how we were the same age and I was like, “NO……I’m hitting 30 here!” He was really surprised. Well I thought about this little fortunate exchange of words for a while. What about me make people think I am younger than what I actually am? I’ ve always been on more of the mature side. My best friends are all older than me….even by 8 or more years. So it’s not me acting immature that makes me look young. I’ ve had two kids so I don’t have that cute hip body an

In My Makeup Bag

Okay you all. Hold on tight because I have an awesome product to share with you. It's Matte by MAC Cosmetics . This product is something I've carried in my kit for a couple of years but for some reason it had gotten pushed to the back of my case behind everything else. Kind of like that always great fitting t-shirt that you love and from time to time it gets misplaced or forgotten about but when you find it again and wear it, it feels so right! That is Matte for me in the makeup realm. I was reminded of it today. I was finishing up a consultation that I had with a client and soon to be bride. She looked beautiful. Stunning really! She was perfectly satisfied with her makeup application and felt gorgeous.....but I knew she was missing something. I couldn't put my finger on it at first because of her beautiful blue eyes that were so striking because of the soft smoky plum colors we had applied to her lids and her perfectly pouted peachy glossed lips and her sun-kissed bron

The Birthday Girl!

I came home a couple of nights ago from doing a little Christmas shopping and to my surprise I had a birthday cake waiting to greet me with all the love a mom could ask for in the form of a baked with love birthday cake. Oh my heart just melted! It is so cute. The way Isabelle decorated the right side and Ethan's left side with the backwards 3 (didn't he notice that?!) I thought it was the most precious thing ever and it definitely is way better than the Sprinkles cupcakes that I got last year! Thanks Erica for doing this with the kids--I love it so much! What a thoughtful gesture! Today is my birthday and I am so excited. It's silly feeling all giddy like a kid--isn't it. But I can't help it--I get to be pampered by spending time with my friends and family and that's truly my favorite thing in life. You know relationships--they're the only thing eternal in our lives-- Good company and a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks and I am on cloud nine! Even though
