Sunglasses My Perfect Summer Accessory!!!

I LOVE sunglasses!!!! It didnt take much thought for me to think of how to write about this.... Sunglasses are the one staple accessory that I can't live without! They add flare to any simple or extragavent outfit. How do you choose the perfect pair for your face?!?! There are so many options out there and so many occasions how does one choose?! Well for me I try them on and if they look good on my face its a DONE DEAL! I have the black cat "retro" look....to my gold "Michael Kors" and my round black and silver "Dolce and Gabbanas" honestly all of these capture different facets of my personality which I absolutely LOVE!! That is why I cant leave the house without a pair on!! Add some PIZZAZZZZ to the most simplest outfit...Dont leave home without a pair of SHADES! Not only that they protect the eye area from premature aging (fine lines!!) ;)

Summer Is Here......Protect Your skin!!!!

We all love the sun and that sun kissed look on our skin but we should all know by now, too much sun can do major damage to our skin as well as increase the risks of skin cancer!! Vitamin D is great but remember...everything in moderation. Did you know that 90% of changes in aging skin is due to sun damage?!? That is a large percentage!  SPF 30 is the most common and most effective that is recommended by dermatologists. Even if your makeup has SPF I don't believe that is enough. I would apply your moisturizer with SPF first then apply your makeup that contains SPF after. Even on a cloudy day you are still exposed to UV RAYS so don't skip out on that protection! If you have oily or acneic skin and shy away from sunscreen due to breakouts opt for "oil-free" or "noncomedogenic" sunscreen. Gel based formulas are also a great option. Sometimes putting on too much can be the issue with breakouts, so use a dime to nickel size for the face and neck area.

There are so many options on the market to choose from, we carry Innovative Skincare Sunscreen shown below at Damone Roberts Beverly Hills which is a great option!!  You just have to find what best suits you. Have fun this summer but always, always protect your skin!!!

BEACH HAIR......oh the WAVES!!!!!

This is perfect for the girls that have a little wave in their hair and want to take it to the next level. I have slightly wavy hair and there are days when I just  don't have the time straighten every strand! I'm sure there are plenty of you gals out there that can relate. Well here is the solution....not only is it always in season in Spring and Summer, but looks effortless and gives you a BREEZY type of vibe. :) I like to look effortless at times.... and its a great way to change up your look. Here are steps that I do to achieve this look. There are no rules as long as you get to the same end hair result!!


1. I find this style looks best on second day hair....(meaning the day you skip your shampoo)


2. On dry hair I'll spritz a little bit of water to give it just a tiny dampness mainly on the ends.


3. I then use TRESemme FLAWLESS CURLS EXTRA HOLD MOUSSE (a great find in my V.I.P. bag at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week NY) I had never used TRESemme prior to this, but I will say I love the products! I do a scrunching & fluffing motion as I have the dryer on with a diffuser.


4. Next TIGI BEDHEAD HEADRUSH is applied as I'm still scrunching. This tames the frizzes but gives me that boost of shine. Its the perfect combo for those natural waved tresses 


5. The process is complete and you are out the door!! The total time is 5-10 minutes tops! Cant beat that for a girl or long haired guy on the GO!


You can use any products you prefer to get the same results. There are many Beach hair products on the market as well. Do what works for you. Its your hair...have FUN with it!!  Beauty Brow & Facial Maven, Maria Thompson XOXO
