New Video: Getting the most out of your beauty products

( Turn down my podcast radio on the right side show to listen. Watch this video and my many others also on Youtube. )


Hey Girls,

Here I share some day in the life tips for getting the most out of your beauty products and a tip for fixing the scuffs on your heels. Enjoy! And always recycle your beauty products.

Products seen in video:
Laura Mercier mineral powder in rich vanilla.

Charles by Charles David shoes.

The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream, $16 at Sephora, yes at Sephora. Yup I saw The Body Shop products at Sephora this week and the collection looked great.

Destination Earth Citrus Breeze Travel-Size Body Lotion, from a hotel stay in Hudson Valley.

Aim high and strive on, don't worry about your height or what you lack, those tall giraffes are not everything! Value yourself and focus on bringing out your inner beauty every day as much as possible,

As a petite model your good skin can help you get you in the door with agencies and help you book you work.

Hey Girls,

As always, I moisturize and tone and cleanse, and drinking a lot of water along with veggies or fruit does a big difference on how my face looks.

WATER. Drinking enough water does affect your face. I like to carry and re-fill the mini size water bottles in my bag.

VEGGIES AND FRUIT. Hello apple! I eat a lot of pasta and veggies. I try to eat a piece of fruit a day if possible.

Taking care of your skin is a model's job. It is not the makeup aritsts job to make your skin look clear, you should pay attention always to your face and skin. If you see or feel a zip coming, get to fixing it asap. Otherwise it will get worse. I put Clean and Clear Invisible Blemish Treatment, or I use a q-tip and dab a bit of Clean and Clear Deep Cleaning Astringent and I get rid of that would-be-pimple! Gotcha!

Also I use face-masks that bring moisture and also help to get dirt out of pores.

And as petite your good skin can get you in the door with agencies and help you book you work.

BTW, before castings and modeling jobs, something that my body loves is my at-home-coffee scrub, here is a video on how you can also make your own.

What do you do to keep a fresh and clean face? :)

Model beauty tricks, nail polish savior!

I'm off to get some of my favorite heels fixed at my fav shoe repair, and here is a shoe trick: buy nail polish in the colors of your heels, I have red, brown, black, silver, that way if you scuff up your shoe's heel just paint a little bit of polish on the scrape or scuff and it will hold you over until you can get to the shoe repair. I always carry nail polish in my purse. (just bought an awesome brown from Revlon)

Also when you go to the salon to get your nails done, bring your own polish with you, you can touch up any chips and mani/pedi lasts longer (and bring your own nail file and buffer too, be safe/cleaner!). Don't feel awkward telling the lady to please use your own awesome file and polish. They will. Just ask. I always do it.


:)
