Plane Travel Beauty Tip: How to Step Off Looking Gorgeous

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 10, 2017April 10, 2017Leave a Comment

Today is Travel Monday and normally we tell you about a fascinating travel destination that should be added to your bucket list. However, many of you fabulous jet-setters asked us for tips to look great even while you vacation. Well dolls, your wish is our command! Our first travel beauty tip is all about plane travel. We are going to tell you exactly what to do in order to step off a plane looking like the superstar you are!

Plane Travel Beauty Tip: How to Step Off Looking Gorgeous

Travel can be very hard on the body at times. You are moving through different time zones as well as adjusting to various altitudes. Moreover, do not even get us started about the stress that can occur from an unexpected layover or lost luggage.

While you can not control every last thing that could pop up while you plane travel to your selected destination; you can stay on top of your own personal travel beauty regimen. For instance, prep should actually begin the night before you leave. Apply a very intensive moisturizer to your face that is formulated to add tons of hydration to your skin.

Why is this necessary? Adding a nice amount of moisture to your face and skin will help protect it once exposed to the plane’s extremely dehydrating cabin pressure. Therefore, instead of your face being zapped of moisture that it desperately needs, the cabin elements will pull from your saved up hydration reservoir.

This will create a nice balance. As a result, when you step off the plane you will not look like a dry, desert wasteland. Moreever, your skin will retain moisture and its usual glow. Can you say, selfie ready?

Beauty Quickie: Layering Bobbi Brown Moisturizer

Arianne SuggsUpdated on September 5, 2016September 5, 2016Leave a Comment

True or false? All skin needs in order to stay soft, supple and youthful looking is moisturizer? Okay, that is actually slightly a loaded question. Nevertheless, layering moisturizers has been picking up steam among beauty experts because doubling up may just be necessary. Bobbi Brown has answered the call with her moisturizers. Here’s how layering Bobbi Brown Moisturizer can give you amazing skin!

Beauty Quickie: Layering Bobbi Brown Moisturizer

Why do you need to layer moisturizers? One may not be good enough due to all the elements skin must face on a daily basis. Just think about it. From weather, hormones and of course aging, skin gets put through H-E double hockey sticks.

Therefore, the reasons you may choose to layer could fall into one of these categories:

Dry Skin – If you naturally have dry skin doubling up can give your skin the opportunity to retain moisture.
Dry, Arid, Windy Weather– This occurs a lot during wintertime. This type of weather literally can zap up moisture so you might want to give your skin a little extra hydration.
Mature Skin – Sadly as we age it becomes harder to keep skin hydrated this can lead to gasp wrinkles. Grandma passed a “black don’t crack” secret down to us years ago. In short, the key is moisturizing daily and well. So then, as you plus one every year you may consider tacking on the layer technique in your beauty regimen.

Layering Bobbi Brown Moisturizer

Bobbi Brown cosmetics have two moisturizing products that make the layering technique a cinch. However, remember regardless what products you choose to double the first should be a lightweight emollient and the second one a product that truly fits your skin’s needs. Lightweight first just so you do not worry about clogging your pores.

Bobbi Brown recommends using their Hydrating Moisturizer first. Next, apply the Bobbi Brown Extra Balm. This doubling up is a favorite during New York Fashion Week. So then, layer up and let your inner supermodel beauty out!

Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Lotion

Arianne Suggs August 5, 2016August 5, 2016Leave a Comment

Looking at selfies of Kelly Rowland, Gabrielle Union and Karreuche all day can make any gal want celebrity-esqe skin! The rich and famous have numerous products and procedures at their disposal to ensure they always look camera ready. Nevertheless, that is not to say that us regular folk do not have a few tools under our beauty belts either. Olay has been hard at work formulating new products to give us ladies radiant skin too! Check out a few of the features of the Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Lotion.

Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Lotion

Olay! If you are a teen or in your early twenties please begin moisturizing your face now. You may think you do not need to but when you hit mid 20s (so trust us, we know LOL) you will understand why. No one else may tell you, but the fountain of youth depends on hydration. If you want your skin to look baby fresh longer then you must moisturize daily.

Now that we got that beauty plea out the way let’s get to the products. The Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Lotion is actually apart of a collection. It is the newest addition to the Olay Luminous with PearlOptics Science line.

The Benefits

What does the Olay Olay Luminous Light Hydrating Lotion do and why should you buy it? Here is a quick breakdown of the benefits:

Hydrates skin
Helps to fade dark spots
Gives skin an amazing glow
Non greasy
Evens skin tone
Results seen in just 2 weeks
Quickly absorbs

So then, it a nutshell you can look forward to even, luminous skin with no ring light required. Besides the lotion the Olay collection also boasts a tone perfecting cream and overnight mask. As any skincare professional will tell you that in order to have great face you need a great skincare regimen. With Olay you can definitely achieve that.

Moisturize Tip: Do not just stop at your face when applying moisturizer. Most of us are guilty of this but with effort all habits can be changed. With that said, also lotion up your neck every single day. Doing so will keep skin there looking nice and supple. Age has a way of rearing its head at the neck. Therefore, fool onlookers by taking care of your neck just like your face.

Morning Thoughts: Granny Beauty Tip

Arianne Suggs March 30, 2016March 30, 2016Leave a Comment

Good Morning!

Thanks for stopping by 1966. We are halfway through the week already and the weekend shall once more be upon us (throws up appropriate hand sign LOL). This morning I wanted to talk about a granny beauty tip. Most likely we all have them, whether our grandmothers shared something with us point blank or maybe picked up something helpful from observation. Some of the best tips that can be found are the ones we receive from our moms and grandmas.

Its usually not till we’re a little older that we realize the benefits of their advice. My granny always told me to moisturize my face every morning and night. Being a tomboy you think moisturizer was the first thing on my mind? Of course not, all I wanted to do was splash water mixed with soap and go outside and play some sport or climb a tree.

However, to this day my grandmother still does not possess one single wrinkle. Not one! Therefore, my granny beauty tip is to moisturize, moisturize and moisturize some more. Don’t skip or skimp on the process, your skin will thank you. Being young we tend not to think that we will always wake up looking the same. Nope, that’s just flawed, wishful thinking. You’re going to get old at some point, but it will be a reflection on how well you took care of yourself in your younger years.

Skin experts have even proven that as we age skin becomes drier. If you’re already in the habit of giving your skin the hydration it needs you’re already ahead of the game. I’d say if not ignored, this simple granny beauty tip will truly go the distance for you.

Enjoy your day!

Arianne xoxo

Beauty Question: What Should I Look For In A Moisturizer?

Arianne Suggs November 23, 2015November 23, 2015Leave a Comment

Beauty Answer: We have said it once and we will say it again, don’t look at the brand or the fancy presentation; the real answers lie on the back of the packaging. Before purchasing any product always educate yourself with what is find inside a various product by perusing the ingredient list. There you will be able to look over the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to what you will be applying to your body on a regular basis.

When it comes to moisturizer and the same also holds true for lip balms avoid products containing petrolatum or mineral oil. These ingredients aid in trapping in moisture due to the occlusive barrier that they create on top of the skin. However, they do very little when it actually comes to skin penetration.

Skin that is already seriously dry or becoming parched needs ingredients that are going to seep in and really do some business. Look for products containing oil, hyaluronic acid as well as ceramindes which do not just rest on top, but penetrates skin giving it the real moisture it needs.

Arianne SuggsUpdated on April 18, 2022January 21, 2015Leave a Comment

She may be born with it and have hair so healthy it shines, but we are definitely sure that very girl put in work to look that awesome! We believe in working smarter not harder to stay naturally gorgeous. Here are 3 quick tips to help you gain and maintain beautiful skin.

1. It is best to saturate skin with lotion or creams right after a shower or bath while skin is still slightly damp to lock in moisture.

2. Soothe dry winter skin by warming lotion for 5 seconds in the microwave before applying.

3. Once a week exfoliate your entire body with a scrub in order to get rid of dead skin cells that can cause skin to look dull. Moreover, removing dead skin will allow oils and lotion to absorb better.

How Soon to Apply Moisturizer After Cleansing

Arianne Suggs November 12, 2014November 12, 2014Leave a Comment

Beauty Quickie: How soon should you apply moisturizer after cleansing your face or the rest of your skin? Aim to moisturize your skin as soon as possible, preferably within 60 seconds. After a minute dry air will literally begin to pull moisture from the skin. During winter, air tends to be even drier than other seasons which could only increase any dryness experienced. Keep skin smooth and supple by making a point to add moisture right after washing your face or showering.
