FROM LEADING DESIGNER SUE WONG

“Don’t You Look All Bright and Shiny”

LOS ANGELES, CA [September 30, 2010] – NBC’s highly-anticipated new series, “Law & Order: Los Angeles”, debuted last night with 10.5 million viewers. And as the episode’s title, “Hollywood,” suggests, the show distinguished itself from its New York counterparts with an edgier vibe that was so Hollywood.

Dressed in beautiful gowns by Sue Wong, guest stars Megan Ferguson (of Humble Pie, 2007), as “Chelsea Senate” and Danielle Panabaker (of “The Ward”, “Weakness”, “The Crazies” and “Friday the 13^th”) as “Toni Parre” immediately captivated and dazzled viewers with pure Hollywood glamour during the first scene of the series premier. The whirlwind of an opener captured the LA scene, complete with hot young starlets, storms of paparazzi and a glitzy club setting.

According to Dr. Marsha Gordon of New York City and named as one of the city’s “Best Doctors,” our skin goes through many changes through the decades and St. Ives has wonderful and affordable skincare products to help you keep your skin glowing!

Dr. Marsha Gordon believes (as do I) that it is best to start taking care of your skin in your early 20′s.  This will in fact prevent you from sun damage and any other radical environmental forces that can harm your skin.  However, most gals in their 20′s are fighting acne.  So, she suggests exfoliating with St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Scrub.  Gentle enough to use every day while smoothing away dead skin cells and preventing the redness caused by acne.  Make sure that you are eating plenty of fruits and vegetables as well!

Unfortunately, some of us may start seeing the signs of aging once we hit our 30′s…ugh!!!  This may include fine lines & wrinkles along with an occasional acne outbreak.  But don’t fret!  Dr. Marsha suggests using St. Ives Naturally Clear Blemish and Blackhead Control Apricot Scrub.  It contains 100% natural exfoliants that will brighten your dull skin by buffing away impurities and dead skin as well as 2% salicylic acid that gently cleans pores and prevents breakouts.

St. Ives Naturally Clear Blemish and Blackhead Control Apricot Scrub

Now for those in your glorious 40′s who have been extremely careful to avoid the sun and all other toxins, a few wrinkles will appear and slight sagging due to loss of subcutaneous tissue in the skin.  It totally sucks but that’s gravity for ya!  Dr. Marsha suggests using St. Ives Timeless Skin Renew and Firm Apricot Scrub.  At this point your skin needs lots of moisturizing…and this scrub contains alpha hydroxy complex that speeds cellular renewal which will reveal your gorgeous radiant skin!  Keep eating well balanced meals and drink your water!

St. Ives Timeless Skin Renew and Firm Apricot Scrub

Hope this helped!  St. Ives skincare products can be found at all major drug, grocery and mass market stores.  They retail for around $5.99.

I feel like its  been forever since I reviewed anything from AVON. Recently I got the chance to test out a few samples from their Glazewear Lip Glosses and I’m in love. The only way these could be better is if they switched to organic ingredients!

Avon Glazewear Lip Gloss

These high shine glosses come in a few different formulas: Intense features dramatic color and full coverage. Sparkle gives lips shimmer and shine with medium coverage. Shine is a super high gloss and my favorite, sheer to medium coverage. And last is the SPF 15 Clear that gives a natural shine with sun protection. Yes, you need to protect your lips from the sun. I’d use the clear gloss over any lipstick just to get that SPF 15!

I like the way the color hugs my lips- even though these are glosses, they don’t end up all around my mouth. The color is fantastic and the price is inexpensive- right now these are $3.99! You cannot get a better deal on a terrific lip gloss.

Something to consider is this tote from AVON, on sale for less than four dollars with 100% of the proceeds going towards a great cause-Breast Cancer. Here are the details-

The Avon Foundation for Women Campaign is launching a new crusade with

Lip Tote

Reese Witherspoon to “Kiss Goodbye to Breast Cancer” during the month of October. As a new symbol of empowerment, Avon and Reese are unveiling “Lips” to give the quest a little lip service, including: Lips for Life tote – With 100% of the proceeds ($3.74) going to support the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade.

Avon and Reese are asking women to “PassTheKissOn” through an online widget that lets users send personalized messages – spoken by a pair of talking lips – to family and friends. The widget can be accessed in early October by visiting this site.

If you’re like me, the last thing you want is a beauty product that enhances your wrinkles. Especially when it comes to applying concealer under your eyes. Light reflecting products are great, but finding one that isn’t cakey, or too pink and doesn’t make your wrinkles look worse is harder than you think.  So when I was back in NY for fashion week and noticed my sister-in-law using a concealer that she was raving about, I knew this was a beauty find I had to check out for myself. Hence my review and huge thumbs up for what turned out to be Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector

Instant Rewind

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector is not just your ordinary concealer, it works its magic in 2 ways. First by covering and concealing blemishes, under eyes, and any other imperfections, and second by highlighting cheek bones, inner eyes, bridge of nose, and contouring the lips for more definition and radiance. Yay!!

As the official cosmetic sponsor for NY fashion week, Maybelline has definitely stepped up to the beauty plate, and their products are hitting homes runs one right after the next.  This concealer is probably one of the best I have ever tried, and will definitely have a permanent spot in my personal kit, and makeup bag.

Conceal & highlight all in one

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Double Face Perfector can be used on any type of skin, dry, oily, normal or combination skin tones. In addition, it comes in a variety of tones and shades, allowing you to easily pick the best shade to compliment your skin tone.

The concealer blends effortlessly and is hypoallergenic and oil free, so it won’t clog your pores or cause irritation. The price will make you smile too cause this little gem is under $10, and that is what I call a great beauty deal!
