Clarisonic

I just made this purchase recently and love it! I got both the regular clarisonic and the clarisonic opal.
Let me just say a girl at work asked me if I had been using my opal bc my fine lines under my eyes look better score!
I had only used it for about 4 days before I had my first comment.
Trust me it works!
The whole science behind the opal is that is infuses the eye serums to penetrate deeper into the skin.
The benefit of this is actually having the product work for you. See using regular eye creams is great but you can only get so far just using your fingers.
Trust me if your bday is coming up and you have some fine lines or crows feet ask for an opal you wont be disappointed!

(ps the opal comes with a serum to use but you can actually use any eye cream you want with it!)

As far as the regular clarisonic goes love it as well.
It cleans up to 4x more makeup dirt and oil off your face than just using your hands and water.
It is a gentle enough exfoliater to use everyday.
It also has different heads to use on the body to help exfoliate dead skin off.
If you have oily skin this is a great thing to add to your skin regiment.
They also have the clarisonic mia which is just the smaller travel size version its the same thing just smaller and cheaper plus it comes in cute colors!
I even got my husband to use it to help with in grown hairs on his neck!

Eyelash Extensions

yes yes that's right I will now be offering mink eyelash extensions!! I've already done my mom and she loves them! She actually wants longer ones next time ha!

Just a few benefits of having them done...more fuller longer lashes...never have to wear mascara!...No need to curl your eyelashes...and no black smudges....and no need to take off your mascara at night because you wont be wearing any!!



I am going to be running a HUGE special for the first 10 people that book! Details to come!

Valhalla Medical Spa

So I know its been awhile and I have neglected this blog...a lot...maybe even more than that but if you are still out there reading then here is a little update of where I am at now....

I'm working at the Valhalla Medical Spa in Vegas and I am LOVING IT! What a difference it is working at a place that is legit. haha. I mean this place has the top of the line products, lasers, treatments, employees etc. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to expand my knowledge in the esthetics field.

I am doing medical esthetician things at the med spa...procedures like laser hair removal, lipo-laser, fotofacials, velashape (for cellulite!!), spider veins, skin tightening....etc you get the picture. We also have some amazing skin care lines, La Roushe-Posay, Biomedic, Obagi, Skin Cueticals, and Color Science!!

But I am trying to get a place set up now to do steam relaxing facials and body waxing out of my house!! (I'm also looking into do eyelash extensions too!)

I am still in the training process at my work right now but pretty soon I will be able to start talking clients for everything!! check out everything we do here

Oh the joys of packing...

This might be big enough for all my junk




For those of you who haven't heard of all the madness I am moving to Vegas this weekend without Tanner :( I got laid off my job and instead of sitting around Utah for another month I decide to apply for a job in Vegas. I got the first job I applied for! Although it will be really hard to be away from Tanner for the next month I know this is the best decision for our family. I will be working at the Vahalla medical spa part time. Check out their website here. Or become a fan on facebook and get all the monthly specials! I will be running their zerona laser and elctroslim machine while doing esthetician stuff as well like laser hair, IPL, facials etc. If any of you Vegas people are ready for some laser hair removal before the summer time hits or some laser lipo let me know. I start next Monday! Until now I will be packing up boxes and more boxes and then some more and oh a storage unit too. Who has this much stuff?!

Winter Makeup tips

So I know we all know those days, its freezing, windy, snowy, rainy, bitter outside and our face shows it. We've got the winter blues.

Cracked dry flaky lips-yes we've all experienced these awful things. Try this
Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 and reapply it throughout the day. Drink water to stay hydrated and avoid those long-lasting lipsticks that end up drying your lips out and enhancing the dry cracks.

Pale Cheeks- running late in the morning? Try adding some blush to your cheeks. It only takes 30 seconds and it will give your face some life, color and dimension! Tips- try finding your natural blush tone, think of what it looks like when you blush or get hot is it more orangy, pinkish, rosy??

Dull Skin- Brighten up your skin with a lovely tinted moisturizer or some bronzer. Just because it may be gloomy outside doesn't mean we have to look like it. Tinted moisturizers are great for days we are running late. Make sure to find one with an spf in it, like this one. Now don't go over board on the bronzer k. We have all seen what that looks like. Try thinking of where the sun naturally would hit your face...cheeks nose a little on the forehead and jawline. Try to find a bronzer 2 shades darker than you're natural skin tone.

Yes it's true

Search no more I have found the perfect mascara. Yes it is out there. Yes I have tried over a million different kinds costing from $4 to over 30 bucks. This new mascara by bare essentials has won me over 10x. It lengthens, thickens, with no clumps...I luvvv it. Not to mention compliments galore...do try I'm positive you will luv it!

Eyeliner

Stay tuned for a very fun and informative eyeliner training post! Also what kind of eyeliner do you wear? Pencil, liquid, powder, or is yours tattooed on?!

P.S- I still have mixed feelings about Angelina but I can't deny her gorgeousness!!

Perfectly Pedicured Toes

So here I am looking at my perfectly pedicured toes and thinking to myself what was my life like before I became an esthetician? Well for starters I didn't check people's eyebrows out before I even knew their name. I didn't exfoliate the dog out of my face body and feet! I looked at waxing as a painful way of being lazy about not shaving. I never clipped my cuticles off and I never put anti aging masks on my face. I lived a much simpler life before it all started. But to be honest I love vomiting at the sight of body hair or at bushy eyebrows (sorry everyone but its true it happens hair grows and crazy sometimes) or jump for joy when my client has some awesome zits I get to squeeze away at. So I know my job is a mix between a gyno, massage therapist and a dermatologist but I love it and my perfectly pedicured toes.

*disclaimer those are not my toes how I would love to have that perfect olive tone skin but ended up with pasty sun burned prone non tanning almost see through skin!

Product of the Day

Clinique All About Eyes cream
Firms, hydrates, and protects the skin—while light diffusers hide what it can't heal.


Lightweight eye cream diminishes the appearance of eye puffs, darkness and fine lines. Non-creep, cream/gel formula actually helps hold eye makeup in place. For use morning and night, both under eyes and on lids. Ophthalmologist Tested.

*I tried this eye cream about a year ago and have loved it! I usually wake up with really puffy eyes and this has been the only that has really helped it. This cream also has helped with my dark circles and tiny little wrinkle lines. You can get it at any department store that sells Clinique.

Question #7-
Amy Marie said...What is the best way to keep from getting hang nails and dry cuticles? Especially in the winter? I have the worst nails right now and I am wondering if there is a secret I am missing out on Thanks! Amy

Amy thanks for the question. Lots of people deal with dry skin and nails during this time. Try some of these tips!

First take a look at your diet...
Try taking fish oil capsules which are essential fatty acids which help improve your moisture content for skin and nails...a vitamin E supplement will help too
drink extra amounts of water to help get rid of toxins and hydrate yourself

Next look at things your do or don't do daily...
don't expose your hands to hot water or for a long amount of time
try not using harsh soaps that strip your skins natural oils. Look for a soap with vitamin E in it or extra moisturizers that won't dry out your hands
rub olive (jojoba,almond etc) oil on them
Bag Balm or any sort of hang cream (like burts bees) or cuticle oil that contain lanolin
Also try sleeping with these creams or vaseline on them
Don't use any nail products with formaldehyde or toluene in them and don't over use nail polish remover esp around the cuticles.

Last if your skin nails or cuticles have serve dryness itchenss or redness I would recommend seeing a dermatologist for a perscription!

Question #6 Cristin said...My face is already wrinkled. What is the best way to get rid of lines around your eyes and smile line that doesn't include super expensive treatments?

Cristin love the question I get asked it all the time!!

Wear sunscreen! I know it sounds so simple but really sunscreen is the cheapest most effective anti-aging treatment out there! Interesting enough you can get sun damage through things like your car window. So make sure to wear that sunscreen EVERYDAY not just lake days and please for my sanity DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT GO TANNING (DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED I MIGHT GET AN ULCER JUST TALKING ABOUT TANNING BEDS!)

As for correcting what you already started...get some luscious eye cream yum! I posted earlier about some wonderful eye creams. If you are faithful in using them I promise you'll see that skin tighten right up. Ask Santa for some what a cute stocking stuffer!

Cristin you also mentioned laugh lines...well embrace those its a sign of a happy life you have lived!! If after you have embraced them and they still haven't gone away there are a couple options. 1. find a product with peptides in them 2. use a great moisturizer (olive oil works great) 3. look at your diet...drink more water, green tea, Vitamins, or make a homemade anti oxidant blueberry mask 4. if you are willing to spend a little more get a glycolic peel, microdermabrasion, laser tightening or in 10 years heck just get some good old juvederm in there!!

As far as making them go away completely you kind of have to fork out some money for things like on #4. But you can definitely help to reduce the signs of them and from creating more to come.
