Dex Phillip Rising Star Awards Interview

Q. How did you get to where you are today?
Dex: For the past 10 years of my life, the process of creating a beautifully crafted picture and stunning imagery was an everyday inspiration for me. As a stylist for the Ford agency, runway- and fashion-shoot producer and CEO of my own image consulting company called La Mode in New York, I was able to experience the height of fashion and beauty in action on an everyday basis and had the honor of working with the best professional makeup artists, photographers, equipment and tools in the industry. I wanted to bring these inspiring and exciting elements of a runway show, a red carpet moment or a fashion shoot, into one location and have it come alive for any woman who came into the studio. DEX New York Beauty Atrium and Studios, my all-in-one makeup, hair and photography production studio that is open to professionals AND every woman, is my vision and dream enacted.

CHANEL Ultra Correct Lift Eye & Lip Products

CHANEL introducing Ultra Correction Lift Total Eye Lift & Ultra Correction Lift Plumping Anti-Wrinkle – Lips and Contour.

ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT TOTAL EYE LIFT

A woman’s eyes are a reflection of her unique beauty. They are the ultimate seduction — but can also be a tell-tale sign of aging. Today, CHANEL PRÉCISION offers a solution to restore youthfulness to the eye area, especially the eyelids. ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT TOTAL EYE LIFT naturally lifts the eye-area skin from within while helping to minimize the look of puffiness and dark circles. The key ingredient, elemi PFA*, delivers concentrated power to the eye area for targeted firming and lifting action. A complex containing escin (a molecule extracted from Horse Chestnut) provides immediate concentrated action on puffiness and dark circles. A tetrapeptide reinforces this corrective action and helps keep the eyelids supple and toned. A state of tension is restored to skin around the eyes. With skin firmed, the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines are visibly smoothed. The eye area appears brighter and radiates with youth and vitality.
