Why Every Beauty Girl Trusts Her Locks to Revlon Hair Tools

This post was sponsored by Revlon Hair Tools as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

Hi lovelies,

Now that fall is officially upon us, I like to change up my look for the new season. I’ve started wearing my hair with loose, wavy curls and I make sure to keep it hydrated and moisturized now that the weather is a bit more dry and windy. 

That’s why I was so excited to use Revlon Hair Tools, all of which are available at Target. The Pro Collection Laser Brilliance Shine Styler, is an innovative and new styler that leaves my locks with a natural shine and bounce due to its Infrared Heat Technology. The diffuser attachment works best when I want to wear my hair curly and the ceramic hair dryer causes less hair damage, which is super important to me in the cooler months. 

Step 1: Take a section of your wet hair and lightly twist 

Step 2: Place the twisted section of your wet hair and gently place it on the diffuser 

Step 3: Turn on the diffuser and let it work its magic to create voluminous curls 

Step 4: Repeat as needed until hair is dry and curled as desired. 

Final soft waves and curls thanks to the diffuser:

Another way that I make sure that my hair stays healthy is by using the Revlon Rose Gold Professional Brush Line; my go-to tool is the Rose Gold Porcupine Round Brush. Its IONIC TECHNOLOGY® Infused bristles dries my hair at a faster pace which causes less frizz and keeps moisture in for smoother hair. I love being able to save time doing my hair because I then have more to prep for the rest of my day or get ready if I’m going out at night.   

When I want to add a bit of low-key bling to my hairstyle, I opt to wear the easy-to-use Revlon Double Grip Clips that comes in a pack of six. The comb teeth and grip dots keeps my hair out of my face, so I wear them when I’m doing my nighttime skincare routine as they are a great way to keep my hair in place when I’m applying my skincare products.

I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m looking forward to seeing what the One-Step Hair Dryer & Volumizing Styler can do. It’s used to get sleek blowouts with just one step and its oval brush designs works best to add volumes and shine your hairstyle. It looks awesome and can also be found at Target! 

Are you getting gorgeous this fall season with Revlon Hair Tools? Do you like my finished look?

#4. STAYING HEALTHY: YOUR LOOKS REFLECT WELLBEING
We all need a little help to improve our natural beauty and make our look pop. However, it’s very easy to forget that your natural appearance is strongly linked to your wellness. Learning to pay added focus to my health was one of the best things I ever did. You should rediscover it too!

Ultimately, we all have different lifestyles and situations. As such, you will need to find a routine that suits your circumstances. This handy tutorial should provide some useful advice:

Be sure not to overlook key factors that will significantly impact your health. As well as your lifestyle, you should think about the home surroundings. Thrips and other pests have the ability to cause illness, which will leave you drained. Moreover, their bites will cause major skin irritations that will undo a lot of the good work from a healthy lifestyle. Preventing this issue at all costs is key.

Improved beauty isn’t the only reward for adopting healthier habits, but it should not be ignored either. Embrace it.

The Beauty Girl's Secret to Radiant Skin (Psst... it's boscia)

Hi lovelies,

When I lived in New York City, I rarely had any issues with my skin, but once I made the big move to L.A., a few years ago, I noticed that my skin was way more irritable and prone to break-outs.

Since my skin was breaking out, I thought that I needed to dry it out, but it was actually the opposite. I needed to moisturize and hydrate even more because my skin was breaking out because it was producing too much oil due to the change to a much drier climate.

So the trick was to keep my skin extra hydrated and moisturized, not dried out, because this would make my skin return back to its natural state of producing a healthy amount of oil.

Once my skin started producing my natural amount of oil again, my break-outs went away because my pores were no longer clogged with excess oil and usual healthy glow was back. 

However, it's been journey to finding the right moisture that wouldn't leave my skin feeling and looking oily or mess up my make-up, but was still effective enough to heal my dry skin and prevent break-outs.

So luckily for me, and for anyone looking for smooth, clean, and radiant skin, there's the new boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer.

The Beauty Scoop on boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer: 
"This ultra-lightweight moisturizer is formulated with the exquisite “Queen of the Night” cactus succulent; a rare ingredient hailed for its ability to thrive in harsh dry climates that gives thirsty skin a sip of hydration.

The peptide packed formula helps revitalize the skin to keep it looking and feeling soft, smooth and supple. Infused with South African Resurrection Plant infusion, this formula will aide in smoothing fine lines and wrinkles to provide an instant youthfulness to skin."

Read on below for all of the ways to keep your skin healthy, happy, and glowing with boscia.

#2: Revitalize your skin with Freeman Beauty

After my skin is thoroughly cleansed, I love using a face mask by Freeman Beauty. They replenish my skin and gives it an added boost of moisturize and leaves my face feeling healthy, smooth, and glowing.

One of my favorites is the Pore Cleansing Strawberry and Mint sheet masks because it makes my skin camera-ready for my photoshoots.

Another one of my favorites is the Hydrating Aloe and Seaberry sheet mask that I use when I get home from traveling for an extra moisturizing boost since my skin dries out from being on airplanes.

#3: Treat your skin with Physicians Formula

Once my skin is cleansed and revitalized, I then love to treat it with my go-to skincare products from Physcians Formula.

During the day, I love using their Rose All Day Oil-free Serum that tightens my skin and gives it an added glow.

 At night, my favorite way to treat my skin is with their Vitamin C Brightening Facial Oil Stick that helps to brighten my skin and fade any dark spots or fine lines.  

When I need to really clean my skin, I use their Charcoal Detox Stick to removes any leftover remnants of make-up, oils, and impurities in my skin and pores.

Pro beauty tip: Put their Physicians Formula RefreshMint Cucumber & Bamboo Eye De-Puffer in the fridge for an extra cooling, refreshing, and depuffing effect.

Summer Body Ready with CoolSculpting at the Marcus Medical Spa

Hi lovelies,

With bikini season upon us, I decided to visit my favorite place, the Marcus Medical Spa, for my beauty and body needs, because I trust them the most when it comes to creating the body of my dreams. As always, I was greeted by the always lovely Dr. Keith Marcus and Danica for my upcoming CoolSculpting treatment.

I work-out a few times a week and I eat consciously, but there’s a few spots on my outer thighs that just won’t budge no matter how many squats I do or how clean I eat. That’s why I wanted to try the non-invasive CoolSculpting procedure to remove stubborn fat pockets without having to undergo surgery.

Dr. Marcus and Danica talked me through what to expect during the treatment, so I wasn’t scared or nervous to start the process of CoolSculpting on my outer thighs. First, they examined my thighs to see where I needed the treatment. Next, I laid down and they applied the the CoolSculpting device on the designated areas. It was painful, just cold, which is to be expected!

Then the device worked its magic over the next 60 minutes or so, per target area, to easily and safely freeze away my fat cells. I watched a TV show during the procedure and time flew by. Once the procedure was complete, Danica massaged my treated area which felt cold and numb, after the massage it tingled a and I can’t wait to see my results.

It’s recommended to get at least two sessions, at about 6 weeks apart, to achieve your optimal results, so I can’t wait to go back and do it again, just in time for my ultimate summer body to be rocking in a bikini.

Wondering if you’re right for CoolSculpting? Then sign-up for a consultation, here.

What is CoolSculpting?

Developed by a Harvard scientist, CoolSculpting is a revolutionary, FDA-cleared treatment that reduces unwanted fat cells on your body, achieving a slim and contoured appearance. It works by delivering cooling energy to unwanted fat cells underneath the skin, causing the cells to freeze and allowing your body to naturally remove them.

An extremely versatile procedure, CoolSculpting can be used to treat unwanted fat on multiple areas of your body.

At Marcus Medical Spa, we routinely deliver CoolSculpting in Los Angeles, using this technology to reduce stubborn fat on the:

• Tummy
• Inner and outer thighs
• Love Handles
• Back
• Arms
• Bra Line

If you are looking to sculpt smaller areas of the body or the face and neck area, look into CoolSculpt Mini. At Marcus Medical Spa, we offer some of the best looking results from CoolSculpt Mini Los Angeles has to offer. Using CoolSculping technology, the CoolSculpt Mini can deliver similar results to liposuction, a neck or facelift without invasive surgery. Ask about CoolSculpt mini during your CoolSculpting consultation if you think you would like to target smaller areas, the face or the neck in addition to larger body parts.

CoolSculpting Benefits

While most procedures designed to reduce unwanted body fat involve invasive surgery, harsh lasers and a lengthy recovery period, CoolSculpting is completely noninvasive. It’s precise cooling energy only reduces unwanted fat cells, while ensuring that the healthy surrounding tissue is preserved.

As such, CoolSculpting achieves smooth, contoured and long-lasting results – without any downtime, bruising, pain or negative side effects.
