Now, here’s more information on my journey to becoming a Juice Beauty Junkie:

For the past two years, I have been using Juice Beauty –– a rich, organic juice-based skin health regimen.

Most beauty products that use “organic” in their marketing use only a few organic ingredients in a water base, making the total organic content dilute and often less than 5%. Instead of the typical water base that cannot be certified “organic or pesticide free,” Juice Beauty puts over 100 USDA certified organic powerful ingredients into a 100% certified organic juice base (made from over 30 different juices) thus bringing the total organic content up to 98% in every product.

Over the years, I have seen the health of my skin improve, exponentially! Dark spots and discoloration fade, easily, and my skin looks and feels more supple. My new even tone and dewey appearance created a youthful look that doesn’t call for makeup to cover up imperfections.

Juice Beauty uses powerful ingredients such as alpha lipoic acid, coenzyme Q10, DMAE, peptides, fat soluble Vitamin C and essential fatty acids for optimum results proven by clinical studies that have shown an 85% reduction in free radical skin cell damage (which means less wrinkles and sun spots!).

But, on the days I want to wear a little make-up, Juice Beauty has that, too! Wearing healthier cosmetics has, also, changed my face and how it behaves. My skin in not clogged or prone to breakouts with this line and it’s beautiful! The concealers, foundations, powders, glosses and balms are light, easy to apply, and easy to remove. 

The Juice Beauty team continually searches the West Coast for the purest, most effective organic ingredients, including organic juices, aloe vera, honey, botanicals, plant oils, and raw cane sugar from farms that specialize in sustainable and organic farming.

These amazing formulations are made without parabens, petroleum, propylene or butylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfates, pesticides, phthalates, artificial dyes or synthetic fragrances.

All-in-all, for the past two years, Juice Beauty has made me feel and look beautiful without the use of harsh and unhealthy chemicals.

There is a difference between chemical beauty and organic beauty. Dump your drugstore or department store regimen and their poisons and treat your skin the way nature intended!

You’re welcome,

I tried out my new Juice Beauty Correcting Concealer and Perfecting Foundation last night and, I have to say, I really liked them!

The concealer, which I got as a free promotional item, is an Ivory shade –– paler than my skin tone. As far as coverage, it is quite light and I would suggest something a bit heavier for very dark spots. However, if you’re using a foundation and a powder, this concealer will do just fine.

Speaking of foundation, the Perfecting Foundation was amazing. I, also, got this as a promotion and found it to be weightless, easily blended, and added a natural bit of color. I am happy to replace my Mac foundation for this product.

Next up, I’ll have to order and try Juice Beauty’s powders, eyeshadows, and blushes!

For the past two years, I have been raving about Juice Beauty’s organic skin care line. In the coming weeks, I will be posting my facial care regiment and the products I use –– all of which are from Juice Beauty.

I just ordered some of the products I use, daily, and thought it would be helpful to share a few ordering tips.

These are the products I like, most, and the order in which I use them:

• Blemish Clearing Cleanser
• Hydrating Mist
• Blemish Clearing Serum
• Antioxidant Serum
• Stem Cellular Repair Moisturizer, Eye Treatment, Booster Serum (kit)

Here are a few more tips:

• Visit Juice Beauty
• Click on ‘Web Specials’ in the home page’s footer to check for the latest deals
• Continue to shop around the site
• Before you’re ready to check out, open a new tab and visit Retail Me Not
• At Retail Me Not, search for additional Juice Beauty deals
• When/if you find a coupon code you’d like to use, enter it during the checkout process at Juice Beauty

When my package arrives, I’ll post an update on these products and how I utilize them.

Stay tuned!

To all of my Too Faced lovers, this one is for you!

Here is a fun way to store your makeup compacts:

Who doesn’t love fabulous nails?

Welcome to the world of Mac Mineral Skin Finish! Beauty junkies just call it MSF.

This bad boy is called Gold Deposit.

This product is amazing and serves several purposes. You can use it as a blush, highlighter, or even eye shadow. Either way, it is a gorgeous addition to your arsenal of spring and summer must haves.

It does a great job of capturing the sunlight and giving you a bronzed look.

One thing I would not recommend is using it as an all over beauty powder;  you’ll just end up looking like you’ve just emerged a kindergarten art class.

But, if used properly, it can achieve an amazing look on all skin tones.

So, my usual nail tech, Hannah at AQ Nail Spa in Studio City, was on vacation for three weeks.

Three weeks!

So, some dude did my nails and only felt comfortable putting damn acrylic on them.

Hated it.

Hate it for three weeks.

Then, Hannah called and said she was back in town. So, I ripped off those nasty acrylics, jumped in my car, and rushed down to the shop.

After, I emerged with my usual –– a colored French tip with a design on my ring finger –– this time, lady bug for good luck!

My morning and evening facial routine, using Juice Beauty.

How to make a messy chignon…

MERSEA DEAD SEA: Mineral Shea Butter Vanilla Coconut

So, my husband brought home this lotion during the time we were blending our households. He said something about bringing it from Paris and how amazing it is. 

I scoffed and clung tightly to my palmer’s CoCo Butter.

He opened it.

He used it.

I smelled it.

I looked at his moisturized skin.

I dipped my fingers into this thick, creamy pool of awesomeness and extracted a palmful. I lathered – no– luxuriated in it.

I ordered it from Israel.

Seriously.

Israel.

I will never use another body moisturizer, ever. I spent just over $30.00 for three 11.8oz containers. It took a couple of weeks to get to me but this is so worth it. I promise you.

Israel.

Don’t laugh and don’t lie…

You have that annoying peach fuzz of your face, too! Well, I saw a commercial for this product by Olay and picked it up at my local CVS.

I thought it was a wee bit overpriced at over $23.00, but I guess that’s the price we pay for…beauty?

My husband took this photo of me in the kitchen as I pranced around with the hair removal cream covering my…beard?

Don’t laugh.

Anyway, I think this cream works pretty well, though it had a hard time removing those annoying sideburn hairs.

Don’t fucking laugh!

This is just a weaker form of your everyday depilatory, like Nair, which I use (very carefully) on my bikini zone. It did the job, though I couldn’t keep it on my face as long as the directions recommended. My face began to itch a bit and I had flashbacks of that scene in Malcolm X when his relaxer started burning just as the water got turned off and he ended up having to rinse his hair in the toilet.

So, I guess I would recommend this product, overall. Happy hair removal!
