CND VINYLUX

CND VINYLUX WEEKLY POLISH  I know summer is officially over but I love blue nail polish. It is so beachy for me. I was so excited when I found this at Loxa Beauty because I needed another light blue nail polish since the one I had was officially finished. I had never used CND Vinylux polish before only their gel polish, but since I love that so much I figured I would give it a try. First, let me say it glides on creamy and smooth which is awesome for someone like me who is challenged in painting my nails. CND Vinylux is a weekly or seven day polish.

Brush Education

Do you have trouble recreating that perfect salon blowout?  Maybe it's your brush. It occurred to me as I was styling a clients hair I should let you guys in on a little secret...it's all in the brush.  I prefer any type of Marilyn brush for the silkiest of blowouts. http://marilynbrush.com/   The reason being they are composed of boars hair bristles which will not pull or break off the hair. Each Marilyn brush is designed for specific hair types and provides fullness and volume or a completely straight  finish.  I find the brush to do most of the work for me. They have ceramic barrel technology and an hourglass design that holds each section in perfect curl formation. So good luck ladies with a little practice and A great brush you too can achieve a salon worthy blowout.

Tips for the Bride

Planning a wedding is one of the greatest experiences you will have in your life. Part of this experience is your beauty, hairstyle and makeup needs. How you look on your wedding day is something you will remember forever. Plan your hairstyle and makeup ahead of time and you will look simply radiant. Consider having your hair and makeup done by a professional. Schedule a trial run. Don't make any drastic changes to your hair until after the wedding. Make sure you are comfortable with the person you have hired to be a part of your day. Your makeup should be similar to how you normally wear it "you only better" unless you are going for a specific look that has been agreed upon in the trial. Try false eyelashes for more dramatic eyes. Waterproof mascara and eyeliner is a must! Take along pressed powder for touch ups. This is especially important for your wedding photographs.
