It can be used morning and night, and will become a must have product for those who are on the Obagi Nu-Derm system and may be experiencing any dry or flaky skin.

Published on by

Need a bit of drama to spice up your lifeless locks? Your dream of Blake Lively’s glam Gossip Girl hair slowly becoming as impossible as avoiding the bread basket before dinner? Think again.

Oscar Blandi’s Pronto Texture & Volume Spray is your one-stop-shop for instantly tousled hair, no beauty school required! Oscar wanted to create a product that made it easy for women to get his signature red carpet look in an instant with just one product. Voila! Introducing Pronto Texture & Volume Spray. For a sexy, undone style, use a curling iron and curl your entire head in 1-inch sections. Then, kick it up a notch by spraying Pronto Texture & Volume Spray throughout the entire head. Tilt hair away from head and spray from ends to roots while lifting. For added oomph, flip head upside-down while spraying. Or, skip the curling iron and spray Pronto Texture & Volume Spray throughout your style (whatever it may be) to take your uninspiring ‘do to the next level. The result is a light hold without the stick, volume that competes with any Victoria’s Secret runway model, and a truly sexy, roughed up finish.

Feeling bold? Your Oscar Blandi Pronto Texture & Volume Styling Kit includes a Pronto Styling Pin! Trade in your dozens of bobby pins for one (yes, I said one) styling pin for any updo you desire. Custom contoured design fits comfortably on the head while 3 prongs anchor your style for all day (and night) hold. Pronto Texture & Volume Spray provides just enough grit so there’s no slip while styling with your new favorite Styling Pin.

Every woman deserves to feel sexy so let’s just start from the top. The bottom line is: channel your inner diva with Pronto Texture & Volume Spray for head turning drama and cascading movement with just enough hold.  Step aside Blake Lively…


Dazzle into the Holidays

Published on by

Who says after the season’s change, that you can’t glisten as golden as the sun? We might lose a bit of light at the end of each day but we can remain bright and gain the appearance of warmth. Allow me to introduce a little helper into your beauty regimen called Hampton Sun.

Not only does the line specialize in all of your SPF protection needs, they also offer different specialty products to heat up your life during the last few months of the year! Treat yourself to a self-tanner, facial treatment lotion, body lotion, fragrance, and even a body shimmer spritz.  The self-tanner is a gel formulation with no scent and easy streak free application. Who doesn’t love to add a bit of color to their days? The SPF 15 Hydrating Face Cream is a daily moisturizer with SPF protection and great anti-aging benefits. The body lotion is very glamorous and offers a quick absorbing application for a great feel. My personal favorites include the Privet Bloom Eau de Parfum and the Serious Shimmer Cooling Sprays in bronze or pearl! The fragrance is very unique and has a calm, clean scent your nose will fall in love with. The Shimmer Cooling Sprays apply very fine with just a hint of shimmer, leaving you feeling sensual and ready for what your day brings to the plate. I suggest you take a look at any of their products if you need a little pep or just some personal pampering!

How to Choose the Right suki Product for Your Skin

Published on by

When I founded suki® in 2002 in my kitchen, I set out to revolutionize the skincare industry using the purest of ingredients with natural advanced cosmeceuticals and my original high-potency botanic concentrate® in what is now our suki® innovation lab®.

I believe that skincare can be natural and scientific at the same time, and after years of collaboration with cosmetic chemists & traditional herbalists, my vision, “evolutionary skincare,” came to life. We hand-select raw materials, using 100% synthetic-free and organic ingredients to create formulas that are clinically-proven to outperform leading synthetic brands. Our products have an exceptional level of bioavailability and function in unison with the body’s natural biological processes.

At the core of my philosophy is “know your beauty”—take charge or your own skin and your own health. Really, no one knows your own skin better than you. At suki®, there’s a product suited for everyone and all skin types, from babies to pregnant moms as well as men. All of our formulas support vitality, strength and good health.

We have a wide range of proven products that address everything from eczema to acne to rosacea. How do you know what suki® product is right for you?  Our website has a handy quiz that helps you find the right skin care prescription for you. But really, it’s pretty simple. Everyone falls into one of two categories: nourishing or balancing.

NOURISHING

Our nourishing products are specifically designed to benefit combination to dry skin types, to prevent signs of aging or for mature skin. These skin conditions result from an impaired moisture barrier and oxidative stress—both internal & external.  This leads to dehydration, dry patches, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles.

Here are 5 signs of needing to nourish skin:

  • Dryness
  • Fine lines & wrinkles
  • Loss of firmness & elasticity
  • Uneven skin tone & discoloration
  • Fragile skin

suki® nourishing products contain:

  • Essential vitamins
  • Rich omega oils
  • Potent antioxidants
  • Ultra hydrators
  • Firming peptides

BALANCING

Our balancing products are specifically designed to benefit combination to oily skin types, rosacea, adult acne, cystic acne, eczema and other forms of dermatitis. These skin conditions result from inflammation that can lead to many problematic concerns such as enlarged pores, excess oil production, facial flushing, redness, itchiness, hypersensitivity, uneven skin tone and various signs of imperfections such as breakouts, whiteheads, blackheads and large, red bumps.

Here are 3 signs of needing to balance skin:

  • Excess oils
  • Inflammation
  • Redness/imperfections

suki® balancing products contain:

  • Immune system boosters
  • Sebum regulators
  • Pore refiners
  • Anti-inflammatory activities
  • Skin soothers
  • Redness relievers
  • Anti-bacterial agents

“Know your beauty” also means having honest and complete information. trusting what we consume, inside and out.

Get Summer Ready Hair

Published on by

Summer is officially here, and with the warm weather brings an opportunity to pay extra special attention to our hair. The sun and chlorine damages our hair, fades our color, and we do little to protect our hair the way that we protect our bodies from the damaging sun. The new Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Cooling Shine Mist is your solution for gorgeous summer hair.

The Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Cooling Shine Mist protects your hair from harmful elements during the warm months, by providing a veil of protection and shine. It contains UV protection to protect the scalp and help the hair stay vibrant. The Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Cooling Shine Mist also contains peppermint oil and sea kelp to help condition and shield the hair, providing shine and vibrancy. The Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Cooling Shine Mist is an easy to apply aerosol spray that you can use with any other styling products, and can reapply throughout the day as needed.

To control frizz and add more shine, we like the Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Smooth Sailing Anti-Frizz Cream. This creates a barrier on the hair to protect it against humidity, salt water, and chlorine. To further protect your hair color from fading we recommend the Frederic Fekkai Advanced Salon Technician Color Care Shampoo and Conditioner. It contains an anti-fade color complex and natural UV protection for long lasting color and shine.

With all of these great products your hair will look its best for the warm months ahead!

NIA24 Rapid Depigmentation Serum

Published on by

NIA24 is known for addressing hyperpigmentation with the key ingredient Pro-Niacin. This same star ingredient is in NIA24’s new product the Rapid Depigmentation Serum as well as Vitamin C and Hexylresorcinol. Hexylresorcinol is a skin brightening enzyme that helps to even out blotchy skin tones and age spots by breaking up excess melanin. The Rapid Depigmentation Serum will help to even out skin tone and reduce existing hyperpigmentation while evenly distributing the pigment in the skin for a more even appearance. The serum is very light-weight and can be used in combination with any other treatment products that you may be using. It is recommended to apply either the NIA24 Skin Strengthening Complex or Intensive Recovery Complex over top of the serum for added benefits.

We would also recommend trying out the NIA24 Depigmentation Spot Repair. This spot treatment addresses dark spots due to sun damage and aging to help brighten skin tone, while providing antioxidant protection with Vitamin C. You just dab a little on to the area of concern twice daily for a brighter complexion. This skin corrector also contains willowbark which will work great for breakouts and inflammation.

Of course we would suggest a great SPF to use with your brightening products to help keep your skin healthy and protected. We like the NIA24 Sun Damage Prevention Mineral Sunscreen with SPF 30 which is lightweight and oil free; perfect for daily use.
