Kiehl’s Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream
Great winter anti-aging face cream new from kiehls Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream. It’s thick in texture and very hydrating. According to Kiehl’s the cream addresses loss of elasticity:
“Loss of elasticity begins in our 20’s with the slow progressive decrease of our elastin and collagen fibers.

Maintaining elasticity is essential to preserving younger looking skin.”-Dr. Adam Geyer, Kiehl’s Products Development Consulting Dermatologist.
Alicia Keys 2013 Sundance
Celebrity makeup artist Nick Barose used Votre Vu products to create the look for Alicia Keys’ surprise appearance at the 2013 Sundance premiere for ‘The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete’. “For the look of Alicia’s surprise appearance at the premiere of ‘The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete,’ we wanted to go for a very simple, fresh and modern look. Here’s how-to.
I first applied the Votre Vu Love Me Deux in St. Tropez. Then I lightly dusted the peachy pink blush from the Beaute en Bronze blush/bronzer duo. This gave her a very natural, glowing flush because the blush has gorgeous light shimmer in it.
Jessica Alba 2013 Golden Globes
Another Hollywood hottie, Jessica Alba. Just look at her the photo below, need I say any-more (and BTW she is a mom of 2, please take notes!). Here’e how to get Jessica’s sexy makeup with Hourglass one of my favorite makeup line.
JESSICA ALBA
On Sunday’s red carpet Jessica Alba wore a gorgeous peach-colored gown by Oscar de la Renta. “The dress was the inspiration,” says makeup artist Lauren Andersen. “I loved the contrast between her glowing skin and the matte orange lip. It’s an almost tropical pop of color that’s not an exact match for the dress but close.”
Skin: Lauren prepped the skin with Hourglass No. 28 Primer Serum, and followed with Hourglass Illusion Tinted Moisturizer in Sand. She then used Hourglass Hidden Corrective Concealer in Warm under the eyes, down the bridge of the nose and fanned the product out in the center of the forehead to create dimension. She finished the skin step with the new Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Radiant Light applied all over to create a golden, subtle warmth. “It’s a soft, refined shimmer that’s glowy,” says Lauren.

Makeup by Stephen Sollitto. “I wanted to make Amy look simple yet polished for her first of many red carpets this season.

Best Makeup & Skincare for Soccer Moms
Just because you are a Soccer Mom doesn’t mean you need to let go and stop making yourself look attractive and glamorous. You need to approach looking good as something you do for yourself and not for anyone else; it will make all the difference in helping you to feel motivated putting the time in.
