Holiday Gift Guide JORD Wood Watch Collab

The air has gotten crisp and snow is starting to sprinkle, putting everyone in the Holiday spirit. Christmas is right around the corner! How did the season get here so quickly? Luckily, like so many other people, if you haven't completed your holiday shopping you still have time.

Nothing says Merry Christmas like a timeless piece of jewelry or a watch. I've recently fell in love with JORD Wood Watches. JORD uses over 13 types of wood. My favorite watch (that I've pictured below), is made from Sandalwood. "Different species of sandalwood are found around the world. Prized for its fragrance which it can retain for decades after cutting, the oil in sandalwood has been used for centuries in cosmetics, eastern medicine and religious ceremonies. JORD uses various species of sandalwood, each chosen for their unique and varying color tones. Red, Black/Brown, and green sandalwood can all be seen in our line"- JORD

I've teamed up with JORD for a SPECIAL Holiday Giveaway! The giveaway is now open and will run through 1/15/17 at 11:59pm.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauty 2015

I'm fresh faced and ready for my makeover at YSL. I've always been a huge fan of their touche éclat and delicious smelling fragrances. Before I sit down I gaze upon all the newest color pallets I'm immediately drawn to their lipsticks. I'm a huge "matte" lipstick fan so I was a bit skeptical with all the lush moisturizing products. During my makeover I became instantly obsessed with their foundation

. It was light weight but gave me great even coverage. Their bronzer was NOT orange, their blushes were bright & glided on very easy. My two favorite items were the brow gel, can i say ahhhhhmazing! It didn't clump and looked very natural due to the smaller shape of the brush. The mascara was to die for! I left with the new collection, mascara, brow gels and eyeliners! What a treat.

Let me get back to the lipsticks. With the precision lip liners -(I love the shape/packaging because I don't have to sharpen them as often) coloring in my lips and painting on not only the mattes but the

A New Era of Plastic Surgery and Fashion 2015

Plastic surgery has come a long way since the early 1900’s where surgeries were performed for WW1 trauma burn victims or patients who suffered facial lacerations due to injuries from say automobile accidents.

In the early 60’’s and 70’s plastic surgeons repaired facial deformities & the first silicone breast implant was unveiled. In the 80’s Lipo came to the US.

“According to statistics released today by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), 14.6 million cosmetic plastic surgery procedures, including both minimally-invasive and surgical, were performed in the United States in 2012, up 5 percent since 2011.” – ASPS

You’ve heard of all the celebrities getting a little botox here and there before red carpet events but now it’s becoming MUCH more mainstream.

It’s not just celebrities getting a little nip or tuck it’s anyone and everyone. It's the latest fashion accessory; mentions Nov. 2014 Fashion Magazine article. (read below)

Procedures such as Coolsculpt and ThermiTight are the latest out on the market and looks like they are here to stay. Coolsculpt literally freezes the fat and then eliminates fat cells without surgery or downtime. The results are phenomenal. Thermitight uses radio frequency and is great for skin tightening of face, neck, tummy & thighs without surgery.

I have the pleasure of working with Dr. Leif Rogers, M.D. FAQS who offers both Coolsculpt and Thermitight in both Beverly Hills and Pasadena locations. Check out the articles below and mention my name for future consults.
