Haircare Under The Sun

It is time to let our hair down and let it blow in the wind! The sun is out and we are all ready to have all the fun during these summery days.

But how about on those days when heat and humidity also want to come out to play? Does your hair have the proper care to avoid the damages that the sun's overpowering rays can possibly bring your way?

Taking care of the texture, color, and moisture of our hair is very essential especially during the seasons where the weather can easily affect it but we have prepared three important hair tips that can help you combat heat damages to your hair.

1. For texture:

Your hair is already exposed in the heat so using hair tools like blow dryers and flat irons during this season can affect your hair's texture.

Try taking advantage of the warm air and air dry your hair instead of blow drying it. You can also give your hair a break by rocking the natural beauty of it, whether straight or curly, throughout the summer.

2. For color:

You need extra TLC for color-treated hair! Chemical treatments and beaming sunshine can bring damage to your hair. It can lead to color fading and extreme dryness.

To make sure that you are protecting your hair color, try to avoid exposing it to the sunlight directly and condition it accordingly. Fashionably, you can wear a hat or a scarf that will give your outfit that extra bang.

3. For moisture:

How about an overnight treatment? Just like face masks that work their magic overnight, recommended hair masks can also do the same. The instructions are very simple: apply the hair mask overnight and let your hair absorb all the good stuff.

Your hair will be rejuvenated and be good to go first thing in the morning.

Enjoy the summer and rock on with your healthy hair!

Celebrating Mother's Day

May is here and flowers are starting to bloom along with the chirping cheerful birds.
It all makes sense as to why Mother's Day has been assigned to be celebrated during this colorful month.
With the beautiful weather upon us, it inspires us to create more wonderful ways to express our appreciation to all the great mothers out there during this special time. From lavish bouquets of flowers and fine dine-ins to a fun shopping day we try our best to pick out extra-ordinary gifts that we know a mother would love.

Mothers are known to juggle everything between work, home, and anything else that we can possibly imagine. As they say, it is an endless job of being a mom. It has even been said at times that some mothers would not have a clue on how to "relax" or "take a break" due to the fact that they are just workaholics! On the contrary, this actually gives us the opportunity to set up and give one of the best gifts that we can ever present to our hard-working moms.

The gift of relaxation will always be priceless. It is something that is overlooked at times and it is absolutely appreciated whenever it is either given to self or by someone else. Pampering your mom on her special day is one of the ultimate gifts you can present her and it just goes a long way. Whether it is for your mom, your wife, your grandmother, daughter, or auntie, setting up a special day for a manicure, pedicure, massage, or reflexology will fit in the occasion effortlessly.

Pedi-Care: Winter Tips

Cold weather got your feet feeling blue?

During the winter time, we have no choice but to cover up and keep certain parts of our body from the cold. One, in particular, is our feet and because it is always covered up during this season, we tend to also provide it with less attention and maintenance since it would be rarely seen in any scene.

But must we wait until the sun is shining on our feet again to continue to give it some love? Lucky us, we do not need to! Let us give you some DIY winter tips that will make you have happy feet again no matter what season we are in.

The Sweetest Soak:
Ahhh...this one comes in handy especially on those rough days at work. Here is our favorite —
Anti-oxidant Honey Foot Soak.

Just drop a cup of honey into a shallow tub of warm water and with a 15-minute soak, your feet will feel softer than ever.

The Invigorating Scrub:
We might not be able to erase our coldest days but we can for sure scrub the dead skin away with our DIY Peppermint Foot Scrub.

What we need:

1/2 granulated sugar
4 drops of peppermint oil
coconut oil

Once swirled in together, we can then start applying it directly to our feet. Scrub the homemade potion and soak your feet in warm weather afterward. A slice of heaven for sure!

Moisturizing Socks:

Whether you start with our DIY soak or scrub, it is very important that we keep our feet moisturize especially in this harsh weather. Dry feet during winter can easily cause cracked heels and can lead into multiple disorders such as athlete’s foot. Our simple solution?
Our DIY Jelly socks!

To restore moisture back in our feet, we will only need a few things:

a pair of socks
petroleum jelly 

Before bed, coat your feet with the jelly and massage it evenly. Apply the socks once done and voila! The jelly will be working its magic overnight while you are getting your beauty sleep.

We hope you all enjoyed our mini DIYs and remember, our feet need TLC all throughout the 4 seasons and it only takes 1,2,3 to make it all happen.

The Beauty of Jade Rolling

For the holidays, I received a Jade Roller as a present with the face cream order.  I really did not know much about a Jade Roller so I put it aside and went about my normal skincare routine. A few nights later, I was watching a video posted by Well & Good and there was a woman discussing the benefits of Jade Rolling. I tuned in and am SO glad I did. After listening to her speak about the benefits of Jade rolling,  I immediately put mine in the refrigerator. Before bed that night, I washed my face and started my usual skincare routine. Afterward, I made my way to the refrigerator to roll the cold Jade roller over my face in the middle of my kitchen. I rinsed it off after use and returned it to my refrigerator. Now, the Jade Rolling is part of my daily face moisturizing routine. I felt divine, alive, relaxed and calm. The feeling of being able to treat my skin through a simple method is just phenomenal and it is as easy as 1, 2, 3. 

Below is one of the basic steps to use this invigorating treat for your skin! 
How to practice Jade rolling:

I recommend putting your roller in the fridge for a few hours before using it.

Step 1 -  Clean your face.

Step 2 - Exfoliate your skin.

Step 3 - Apply serum or moisturizer.

Step 4 Start rolling WITH outward and upward motions around each area, about 3 times.

Step 5- Wipe your face and reapply serum or moisturizer if needed. 

Step 6- Clean your Jade Roller and place it in a pouch or ziplock bag.

The Ultimate Beauty Tips to Look Stunning This Holiday Season

‘Tis the season to get extremely busy with all the hustle and bustle in trying to get things done in a very short amount of time! 
But in the midst of all, it is still  important to take care of yourself especially with all the endless holiday parties.

Because everything just instantly turns into a time-sensitive matter during the holidays, we whipped up these quick beauty do's to save the day...and your time!

Eyes: 

Longer days plus longer nights can definitely affect your glow. One way to conceal the darkness and bring the brightness right back to your face is applying white eyeliner in your waterline and inner corners. This can help bring the sunshine back to your eyes.

Lips:

Want a long-lasting tint on your lips? Apply foundation on your lips prior to applying lipstick. It will for sure hold the color down so you will not have to worry about stopping in your tracks just to reapply the color.

Nails:

Ouch! A nicked nail can be such a bother but thanks to this easy trick, you can fix it in just seconds. Simply dip your nail in a polish remover then quickly rub it over the chip toward the tip of your nail to smooth it out.

Dab some polish in the bare spot to fill it in and voila! You have saved a secondary trip to your manicurist.

Hair:

No time to blow dry your hair? No worries. You can jet out of the door and still have beautiful hair once air-dried.

Blot your hair with a towel, spritz some volumizing spray, and brush your hair thoroughly. In just 20 minutes you will have thick and volumized locks.

Skincare:

Makeup on then makeup off! After making sure that the makeup stays on throughout the holiday party, we would not really want to spend the same amount of time removing the products applied on our skin.

To remove makeup in a flash, grab a facial wipe before the lather-and-rinse process. This trick will get the job done and your face will thank you for it.
