My Vanity Spot

Posted by Coast Side Babe | Beauty Related,Home Shopping | Friday 3 February 2012 2:49 am

I don’t wear too much make up, I think I said that in one of my posts here already but I love buying make up because I always go to events with my husband and usually, I doll up myself when I have too and putting a vanity space for me is a must because I don’t want my stuff to be scattered everywhere, I’m OC like that! Anyway, My Vanity spot needs some redecorating and since I don’t think buying another vanity table is needed, I guess, changing the dressing table stool will be perfect to put a little touch of something prettier there. I want this…

Shabby Chic White

My vanity table is white and I think this will be a nice touch of color in the space. Not too dark brown but not too light, almost in the red tone which I think will be pretty if I put colorful baby colored flowers on the dresser and just make the space lively. My inspiration is this…

Really pretty right?

Indian Remy Hair for You

Posted by Coast Side Babe | Beauty Related | Saturday 5 November 2011 5:53 pm

Do you ever wonder how these celebrities have the best hair in the world? How they have perfect short hair and just after a few weeks they have the best looking long hair? Well, most of this celebrities are wearing real hair extensions and the most popular kind of extension is the Remy hair extension that is easy to find in the market nowadays.

So what is Remy Hair?

Remy hair is collected by a hair donor. The cuticles are not stripped and are usually aligned in one direction. Most hair extenions are stripped, which is called acid-bath and applied with a silicone so when these are washed they usually wear off and easily gets tangled unlike the Indian Remy Hair that is not stripped and cuticles are intact so it provides the best appearing hair extension in the market plus it doesn’t mat or easily gets tangled. It is the best looking natural hair too.

Overall, this type of hair extension is the best and is well recommended by fashion hair expert all over the world. These types of extensions can be very expensive but a lot of stores offer affordable prices for ordinary people like us. Beautiful hair should not be expensive, all you need to do is find the right store for you.

To Moisturize the Body

Posted by Coast Side Babe | Beauty Related | Tuesday 10 May 2011 11:14 pm

I have been experiencing dry skin because of the weather and my love for coffee. I know coffee when taken excessively can dry up your skin and since I am in so much stress lately plus so much work to do, I always have the need to drink coffee. Anyway, sleep is also one of the factors of dry skin and I lack of that too! Darn, this time management is driving me nuts. So a friend of mine recommended I use La Mer lotion and I think I will be trying this one…

Body Creme

Like a seaweed wrap in a jar, this luxurious moisturizing cream infuses dry skin with long-lasting hydration. Micro-Algae Complex attracts and captures moisture throughout the day. Blue Algae Life Ferment™ immediately restores clarity and works over time to diminish the appearance of minor discolorations and improve firmness and tone. Skin emerges supple, smooth and glowing.

As The Body Crème is massaged into the skin, circulation is improved. Skin’s look and feel take on a radiant new life. The Body Crème is so lastingly hydrating, daily use may be unnecessary.

Steps to Perfectly Clean Face

Posted by Coast Side Babe | Beauty Related | Thursday 5 May 2011 1:56 am

I experienced nodular acne last week so I searched online of what to do and I was glad to see numerous solutions about it. I vowed to do the right thing when it comes to maintaining my perfect skin, fashion is part of my job and I will not represent myself properly to my clients if I have acne.

Perfectly Clean Face

In order to have flawless skin, you need to keep your face clean. Here are some Steps to Perfectly Clean Face:

1. Cleanse twice a day, no more. Unless you have exposed your skin to excessive dust, grime or pollution, twice-a-day cleansing is more than adequate for any skin type. Cleansing too often strips your skin of precious natural oils. Not cleansing regularly, particularly before you retire for the night, may lead to build-up and eruptions.

2. Choose a cleanser that is appropriate for your skin type. Do not use soap on facial skin: it can be too harsh and drying and damage skin over time. A too-rich cleanser can clog pores, while a too-dry cleanser can irritate the skin. A cleanser for dry skin should contain nourishing herbs and oils. One for oily skin should include herbs that balance oil production and support clarity. Sensitive skin benefits from an ultra-gentle, fragrance-free, non-irritating cleanser.

3. Always cleanse with tepid water. Hot water dries and damages skin over time, and cold water won’t dissolve and take away embedded dirt and grime as well as lukewarm water.

4. If you use sponges or washcloths, make sure they are clean and soft. They are not necessary for effective cleansing: your fingertips can do just as good a job.

5. Wash your hands thoroughly before you cleanse your face, or you will be working dirt into facial skin. Use a headband to secure hair away from the face.

6. Start by splashing tepid water on your face and neck.

7. Apply the cleanser with your fingertips or a soft sponge, using gentle circular massaging strokes and moving upward on the face and neck. Do not scrub too much…gentle massaging strokes are enough to help improve circulation as well as loosen grime and old surface skin cells. Too much scrubbing will stretch skin and irritate it, especially the delicate skin around the eyes.

8. Rinse with lots of tepid water. Don’t forget to rinse off cleanser from the neck and hairline. Cleanser residue can clog pores and attract dirt.

9. Gently blot off excess water with a soft towel. Do not scrub dry or drag towel along skin.

10. Follow immediately with a water-based toner and a moisturizer appropriate for your skin type to seal in surface moisture and offer nourishment when skin is receptive.

I learned my lesson, I will never sleep with any make up on! :D
