Smaller Pores in 1 Easy Step.

TODAY'S FRESH PICKS
Loreal Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Re-Smoother

No lasers, no retinol, no pain or irritation. 

Loreal Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Re-Smoother
Price: $12.99 (orig 19.99)  ***cheap thrill***

Meet Loreal Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re-Smoother. In two words, IT WORKS. 

BENEFITS:
  • L'Oreal Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re Smoother refines uneven dry patches and uncovers a luminous and healthy glow.
  • Loreal Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re-Smoother delivers smaller pores to create Super Smooth Skin.
  • Incorporates Pore Targeting Technology plus Pro - Xylane plus Hyaluronic Acid.
  • Maintains an even, virtually poreless skin surface by advancing the reorganization of surface cells and diminishing the appearance of pores.
And it's a lightweight elegant formula, great for oily or combo skin! The experience is that of using an expensive cream, non-oily and soothing.

On Amazon.com, most of the reviews are 5-star. When's the last time you saw that?

The only other thing that delivers smaller pores is a costly laser peel.  That works but its not a fun time and the recovery, which includes your face peeling off and some pain as that happens, necessitates a week away from work.

Thinner, Younger and Sexier in 3 Minutes!

TODAY'S FRESH PICKS

Victoria's Secret  
Instant Bronzing Tanning Spray


Victoria's Secret Instant Bronzing Self Tanning Spray
Price: $15.00  ***cheap thrill***

Great for a natural- looking glow or a day at the beach

New self-tanner technology makes the at-home spray tan a reality.  Bronzes and tans in one easy (yes, really!) step. And no orange hues here, you get a gorgeous real tan brown.

Wrap your legs in a natural coat of TAN for summer's shorter skirts and shorts.
Finally, you can wrap your body from head to toe in sexy, airbrushed perfection without the risks of a real tan or the salon price. Beach Sexy Instant Bronzing Tinted Body Spray with natural aloe leaves skin kissed with golden color for a flawless look.

STYLIST TIPS #1
Bronze tint helps blur the look of imperfections, like uneven skin tone or texture. Add a second coat to areas that you want to slim, like sides of thighs or hips.

STYLIST TIP #2
Continuous spray makes for easy, streak-free application. Put a dark towel under your feet to keep spray off of the floor.

To use the spray for your face, just spray into hands and apply like a foundation. Don't apply to eyelids.  Use a damp cloth to remove from eyebrow area and nose (which tends to tan too dark for some reason).

STYLIST TIP #3
For most natural results:
  • Wipe off heels, sides of toes and feet and knees with damp washcloth after applying. 
  • For arms, don't spray where sun wouldn't hit (insides of elbows and underside of triceps)
  • WASH Hands completely with soap, not just the palms. Take special care to use soap between your fingers! DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.

Marc Anthony Dream Waves Beach Spray



Marc Anthony Dream Waves Beach Spray for Hair
Price: $8.99  ***cheap thrill***

A great new summer texture to your hair.

Oh the scent...like a day at the beach...

Created for straight or wavy hair types
  • Even the straightest hair can achieve sexy, fresh-from-the-beach, tousled waves 
  • Creates texture
  • Amplifies waves
  • Adds body and volume
  • Protects hair from sun damage
  • Creates a carefree tousled finish
Sexy, tousled waves aren't just for the beach. Dream Waves Beach Spray transforms even the straightest hair into soft, flowing, loose waves anywhere, anytime. It adds body and texture to straight, fine hair or pumps up the curl in already wavy hair. Hydrolyzed Silk and Provitamin B5 protect while adding moisture and shine. Your hair is left with manageable, touchable waves.


TODAY'S VIDEO:



STYLIST TIP #1
DEFINED WAVES
Separate waves by running fingers through hair and squeezing hair into ribbons. Keep ribbons together and use a diffuser to dry.  Gather individual waves in the diffuser as you dry. When dry, bend over and flip hair down, then rake fingers through gently.

STYLIST TIP #2
SUMMER'S BEST PONY TAILS
Add texture to unwashed hair for updos and casual ponytails.  Second day hair is the KEY to the updos that celebrity stylists do. They use dry shampoo and add more gunk to create that piecey texture.

Garren says: 
If you have fine hair or you must wash your hair, use a BEACH SPRAY all over and dry with a diffuser before creating a loose ponytail or updo.

Bobbi Brown Beach Eau de Parfum
Price: $70.00  ***splurge***

Childhood memories in a bottle!

A lightly intoxicating blend of sand jasmine, sea spray and mandarin, Beach captures the atmosphere and attitude of SUMMER. This eau de parfum is wearable anytime, anywhere.


Bobbi Brown's best-selling fragrance gets an update in a sleek new bottle. Looks great on your dressing table or night stand.

PERFUME TIP #1
Perfume should remind you of another time, another place. Just-washed hair, a day at the beach, or a night out on the town. 

Perfume can be an instant mood changer. Bobbi Brown's take on fragrance: it should smell great, never overpower, and make you feel good.


PERFUME TIP #2
Layer with Bobbi Brown Beach Body Oil or Beach Body Lotion for a longer lasting high.

The Fix for Dehydrated, Over-styled Summer Hair.

TODAY'S FRESH PICKS
Miracle 7 Deep Conditioner


Miracle 7 for Heavenly Hair
Deep Conditioner 
Price: $13.29

Miracle 7 leaves your hair looking like an expensive shampoo ad. 
Just a few minutes in the shower,  and you'll see and feel the difference.

Great for all hair types. Light enough for straight fine Locks, but strong enough for Curly or Relaxed Hair.  See reviews for all hair types with the links below.

Note: There are no strong perfumes or weird fruity smells (as in Garnier hair products) in this product to conflict with light summer perfumes and body mists.  A light scent disappears on dry hair, even air-dried.

STYLIST TIP #1
Hold freshly washed longer hair like a ponytail. Apply conditioner to all sides of the ponytail. Release and comb through with large detangling comb for even application and tangle-free hair.

STYLIST TIP #2- 
For deeper conditioning, leave on 5-15 minutes.
