Tips for applying bronzing powder in the winter

November 9th // 5 Comments

With cold weather already upon us, that summer glow is about to be a distant memory. I rely on my Motives Miami Glow bronzer to give my face and neck a little bit of color and shimmer during the winter months – that compact is seriously in my handbag 24/7! Here, my three tips for applying bronzing powder in the winter:

  1. Make sure to set your foundation and concealer with powder before applying bronzer. If your base isn’t set, the bronzer can streak or appear dirty and muddy.
  2. Focus the bronzer near your hairline, jawline, cheekbones and where the sun would naturally hit your face in the summertime.
  3. Pay attention to your neck and ears! Pale neck and ears are a dead giveaway.

How to Bronze like a Victoria Secret Model

June 6th // 3 Comments

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I get a little nervous when using self-tanner! Even though Scott Barnes’ Body Bling is the easiest one I’ve ever used, we all have our clumsy moments… right? :) That said, I found this great video on El Diario de la Moda’s YouTube channel about how to bronze like a Victoria’s Secret model and wanted to share:

These tips are so simple and easy to remember! This video definitely has some info that will help our self-tanning sessions become less stressful, don’t you think?

Men’s Grooming – Sun Protection and Sports

April 26th // 4 Comments

Did you all watch the end of The Masters tournament a few weeks ago? It was an amazing moment, and the gasps in our living room grew even louder when Phil Mickelson took off his cap to be interviewed. In case you missed it, the moment clearly illustrated the limits of golf- and baseball caps in the sun protection department.

Cellular Laboratories® De-Aging Sunscreen SPF 55

I’m very much thinking about sending Mickelson some of Cellular Laboratories excellent broad-spectrum, high-SPF suncreen (like the one shown here). Does anyone else have a favorite sun-protection strategy for sports?

Please share!

Scott’s new book, About Face, and Ken’s hair tools are perfect gift options for your beauty-obsessed friends. Honestly, when I buy something for a friend from Scott or Ken I end up just buying two anyway (one for myself)!

I work really hard to make sure you all have the best online shopping experience possible with the hottest partners like Scott and Ken. I figure if celebrities can’t live without them – why should you?
