TwistNClean: Genius Beauty Tool That Wipes Away Mascara Excess Instantly!

Ladies, we have ALL been there; I'm talking about the glop + glob left from mascara as you PUMP the tube to extract mascara on the wand to apply each coat.

You know what can happen.....It's just way too much. And now your pretty lashes are CLUMPING + difficult to SEPARATE for the next lash-building coat or layer.

We have admitted here several times, that we CANNOT live WITHOUT mascara. We are, er....a mascara freak, and a proud one at that.

Today, we are lucky that there are TONS of 'volumizing' mascaras available---thick formulas that BUILD + BUILD for a gorgeous faux lash effect. Plus, there are BIGGER, WIDER wands/brushes that can hold more mascara product.

The only bad thing, you can OVER-LOAD....then lashes, as we say, CLUMP + SPIKE....

TWISTNCLEAN to the beauty rescue!

This is a first-of-its-kind product now available for mascara lovers everywhere. And it's healthy for the planet---100% biodegradable.

Stephen Isola developed this genius beauty tool, and was gracious enough to SEND us a TwistNClean along with a supply of re-fillable inserts.

I am using his photos from the TwistNClean website to show you what the little beauty box looks like and how a mascara wand/brush is inserted INSIDE the box where the inserts wipe OFF the excess mascara, and allow you to now apply a perfect coat WITHOUT the glop + glob!

And a TwistNClean is a great beauty budget buy. For just $8.99, you receive one Box Case with Mirror: includes one TWIST N’CLEAN insert.

Then for $9.99, you can buy a BIG pack of re-fillable inserts.

What can we say?

This is an inexpensive + smart beauty tool that lets women build perfect, even mascara coats for great-looking lashes.

And makeup artists will also fall in LOVE with TwistNClean.

Bye-Bye CLUMPS + SPIKES!

Thank you, Stephen Isola.

Liz Hurley All Wrapped Up: Pashmina Shawls Perfect For Fall

Gotta LOVE Liz Hurley. The British-born actress is out and about doing her best for breast cancer awareness, as she has unselfishly done for a number of years now. And looking gorgeous at 50, we might add!

Of course, PINK is the signature color for breast cancer awareness, and Elizabeth wears it well.

We especially adore her light pink Pashmina shawl, or whatever cashmere wrap that might be.

That reminds us: Pashmina shawls/wraps are PERFECT for those cool autumn days + evenings.

And they are CLASSIC accessories. A genuine Pashmina shawl is usually made with a 70% cashmere + 30% silk blend and can cost between $200 and $500 at stores like Nordstrom's.

We hunted down a PINK Pashmina for a lot LESS.

Just $14.95 at ChoosyShopper.com.

Looks great. Not sure how authentic it truly is, but still--- a pretty shawl/wrap, that can also serve as a scarf.

Love it! A shawl can change up the look of any style you wear.

Jessica Alba is another fashionable celeb often photograped wrapped up in a shawl/scarf .

Redhead Power! Ashley Tisdale Wows In New Hair Color

We LOVE red hair.

When we think of an amazing redhead, we often think of model Angie Everhart.

So jealous---such incredible auburn tresses! SEXY woman.

 

 Well, there's a HOT new redhead in Hollywood, and she's amped up the fiery locks, and wow !

Ashley Tisdale has made the color leap from her usual blonde hair shade to a pretty redhead.

What do you think?

Here is Ashley yesterday at the 2015 Power of Women event in Beverly Hills:

Ashley has never looked more glam.

Now, to dye your hair red is challenging if you are NOT a natural redhead, but it can be done of you allow a color professional to deal with the finicky hair shade in a bottle.

Red color is the fastest fading dye of the entire hair color spectrum. According to what we learned, the red color molecule is the largest of all the color molecules, and for that reason, washes out very easily. That is why, washing red dyed hair too frequently, can speed up fading. That and chlorine pool water.

Invest in shampoos that are for color-treated hair to hold on to your exciting new hair shade. And if you want the least upkeep, put in a few red highlights around your face, instead of going the red route for your entire head.

If you still want to go it alone and color your own hair, then try this one:

Blue Smoky Eye Like Kendall: Hot For Fall 2015 And Spring 2016

We all LOVE a sexy smoky eye, but what makes the look even more stunning is a bold color like blue + aquamarine, which Diane Von Furstenberg showed on the runway for DVF Spring 2016.

Here is model Kendall Jenner for DVF wearing blue lids with a soft nude lip---so chic.

Big sister Khloe Kardashian also showed off the look a few months ago during that amazing trip to Armenia with Kim.

Khloe rocked the smoky blue eye purr-fectly.

Again, pairing the bold pop of blue shadow with a quiet nude lipstick.

We really like this look and are tempted to try it on, because blue shadow + dark brown eyes rock!

Check out Sona Gasparian doing a great DVF YouTube demo.

Ariana Grande Loves This Smashbox Eyeliner In A Big Way

The cat eye is our FAVORITE beauty look ever. And yeah, it's not easy to master, but it is one of the most glam eye makeup trends of all time.

Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot + Sohia Loren did it BEST.

The cat eye has been all over the runways as of late, and celebrities like Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande are keeping up with this sexy makeup.

Pencil, powder, shadow, gel liner, etc., there are a number of ways to create this classic eye makeup look.

Ariana is dishing on her FAVE liners. This is what she told InStyle mag recently:

“It took forever but I think I’m there. I think I mastered it by practice and prayer. I use the Smashbox black liner and the Chanel eyeliner in liquid brown and black. Those are my two favorites.”

There you have it....Great to know.

And we found it (Smashbox Limitless Liquid Liner) for only $13 + FREE shipping on EBAY!

It retails for $22 at Macy's. So this is a good beauty buy.

Thanks for the beauty tip, Ariana Grande!

Cate Blanchett Leading Shoulder Cut-Out Trend: Big For Spring 2016!

Not only is Cate Blanchett a fine actress, but a star who rarely misses the mark when it comes to gorgeous style.

There she was in L.A. Monday evening for the premiere of her new movie, Truth.

Cate looked great in a white lacy mesh shoulder cut-out dress.

So feminine and so right-on-trend for Spring 2016.

Cate is ALWAYS fashion forward, so she's showing us how to hop on the glam train now.

We like the shoulder cut-out, because it doesn't expose too much, and yet looks glamorous + sexy in an understated way.

Plus, we think it looks flattering on all shapes.

Shoulder cut-outs have been HOT all summer long, and we are happy to see the trend spill over into Spring when it warms up again for a little skin action.

You can find shoulder cut-out tops, dresses + sweaters around most stores at the moment. Other names that show a peek-a-boo shoulder include---cold shoulder, cut-out shoulder, etc, associated with this style.

We found a cute white body-con dress with shoulder cut-out here at Asos  for $25, FREE shipping.

Do you like the shoulder cut-out style, and will you wear this trend?

What If You Could Make Your Cellulite Disappear For One Year?

Cellulite. Every woman HATES it, and MOST of us have at least a little.

Cellulite is easy to spot----it's that dimpled, cottage cheese-looking fat found most commonly on our thighs + butts. But it can also develop on one's belly + arms.

We have talked about cellulite over the years a number of times.....And the hard-fast fact to remember is this:

You can NOT get rid of cellulite PERMANENTLY.

But you CAN MINIMIZE its appearance and possibly halt its further progression.

Interestingly enough, the FDA has approved a brand new cellulite-busting procedure called:

CELLFINA.

It is NOT cheap, but for $3,000-$6,000, depending on how many areas are targeted, this non-invasive procedure promises to get rid of CELLULITE for one year.

Your thighs + butt will look a whole lot SMOOTHER.

Now if the 2 photos shown here are 100% NOT photoshopped, then we are impressed!

It's about a 45-min. procedure and takes about 2 weeks to recover from bruising.

Soooooooo, how does Cellfina work?

According to the company's website, the treatment, done in a doctor's office under a local anesthetic, zooms in on cellulite's tethered bands of fat tissue:

Cellfina treats the connective bands woven throughout the fat that pull down the skin, creating dimpling seen on the skin’s surface. The Cellfina™ cellulite procedure works by precisely treating these tethered bands, causing them to fully release. Similar to a rubberband under tension, once released, the treated skin bounces back to smooth itself out in as little as three days.

Sounds encouraging for those who can pony-up the cash for this cosmetic/elective procedure.
