January 2014 - Beauty Talk Live

Recently I had a bad experience when I took on a “Job” in a Brand New Salon…
I was very excited because after being in the beauty business for 27 yrs… I wanted to get back into the world of doing hair again. Of course I’d have to build a clientele again and I knew that it was just a matter of time because when I set my mind to something I make things happen!
Until… You have Women that see what you can do and they become envious or even feel threatened!
Now mind you, I believe beauty begins on the inside and ” SOME ” people wish the best for your Success and Others Hate “YOU” for it when you do! Can YOU Relate?

I’m not one of those people!
You see…
My Favorite thing to do is to Connect, Build, Support YOU and Unite a Community of People!
That is why We started the #BeautyTalk chat on Tuesday nights at 9:00 pm est so anyone can join the conversation and hopefully learn new things, talk about current events and make friends!

We also have a #BeautyTalk Community especially for Beauty Bloggers and anyone who wants to find out the latest information about products, musings and tips on
” All Things Beauty ”

Okay… at this point you’re wondering what happen that could be so bad?
I decided it was NOT a good fit for me to work in this Salon?

This is my Summary :
When people are NOT willing to Respect YOU, Support YOU , Work with YOU , Value your Opinion and …then
“They” go out of their way to be unkind would YOU continue to subject yourself to that Environment? HELL NO!

Women should be happy for each other… after all ” WE ” really have come a long way!
Why do ” We ” act this way towards each other? Your Answer is a good as mine…
At the end of the day I know that I can sleep well knowing that I’m a kind person that loves to see the good in “All” People!
Whatever comes your way… be sure to remember that sometimes
” All things happen for a reason and that the Best is yet to come!”

EXFOLIATION

When, Why, Where and… What is it?

What is Skin Exfoliation?

The definition of Skin Exfoliation is the removal of surface dry skin cells.

Why do I need to Exfoliate?

I like to refer Exfoliation as one of the most important parts of a Skincare Regime. Not only can it resolve skin problems, give you a radiant glow and most importantly let your skincare products work effectively by removing a dry sticky glue-like layer of skin cells and in return allowing a smooth fresh surface of skin to appear.

Where do I Exfoliate?

The beauty of Exfoliation is that you can exfoliate just about all over your body except sensitive areas, especially close to the eye area. After Exfoliation your Moisturizers will penetrate readily into the skin, your feet will feel soft and smooth and it’s a must before applying self-tanners if you want an even application.

When do I Exfoliate?

When I refer to Exfoliation in this article I need to inform you on the two Types of Exfoliation.

#1 “Physical” or even “Manual” which means that you have to do the work. This can be achieved through the use of sponges, washcloths, facial brushes, facial scrubs or my personal favorite Clarisonic These products can be gentle enough everyday depending on your skin sensitivity.

#2 “Chemical” You may have heard of this form through Peels, AHA’s, BHA’s and via “Acids” Examples; Glycolic, Lactic and Salicylic. By using these “Acids” properly and by following the correct directions of use, you will see amazing results for mild acne sufferers. I only recommend the use of acids with proper skin analysis by a Skin Professional.

In closing:
There are many benefits to Exfoliation, to achieve a smoother appearance in the skin, clear congested pores that can cause breakouts, hyper- Pigmentation (brown spots), Anti-Aging benefits as it keeps skin fresh and new and especially when make-up is applied because it’s not laying on dry surface skin cells that would otherwise accentuate fine lines.

As a Licensed Professional I enjoy writing articles on the skin…
Look for more to come on Hair, Skin and Makeup in the New Year!
