My schedule does not allow "ME" time.
Trying to sit still for a manicure is utterly painful ...too many things I should be doing.
My monthly hair color appointment cannot be avoided, but I do leave with my hair wet...no time.
This is why I love all the new options that are available for at home use.
If you are like me...dread to commit to an appointment, then read on.
The goal is perfect skin, pore free, hair free, wrinkle free and zit free.
The Clarisonic skin cleansing system has been a lifesaver for me!
The brush pulses away dead skin cells, makeup and dirt, 6 times more efficiently than manual cleansing.
The pulses also get the blood circulating which helps decongest any morning puffines.
Trust me, this one really works!
$225.00 www.clarisonic.comor you can find it at www.Sephora.com
The TRIA is the first laser hair removal system cleared by the FDA and available for at home use.
The laser light heats up the dark pigment in each hair follicle. This disables the hair follicle to grow.
The process goes like this.
The first 3 months you use the TRIA every 2 weeks.
Then once a month for 3-5 months.
I just started the process a month ago so I have used it twice and my hair does seem finer.
The sensation of the pulse can be as mild as just a warm feeling or at its highest level the snapping sting of a rubberband.
It does take time to use the TRIA , I would say about 30-45 miutes for bikini line and legs.
Well worth it if we can say goodbye to razor nicks.
I will keep posting the progress with high hopes.
To find out more info about TRIA check out their website.
$595.00 www.TRIABeauty.com, Norstrom, QVC, Bergdorf Goodman, Fred Segal, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdales.

SKII is a luxury line of skin care and cosmetics.
The Airtouch is actually an air ionizer that finely mists foundation.
I love this machine for its portability. It runs on battery cell...no cords or chargers.
The design is beautiful and feels good in the hand.
$165.00
I have a few more gadgets and goodies I will be testing out so stay tuned!
Is there really hope in a bottle?
Can we turn back time with creams or serums?
The quest for eternal youth has created a bevy of luxury skincare lines that promise tighter skin, smaller pores, and increased collagen.
These are some of my choice picks so that you don't have to waste time or money during your next search for "Forever Young".
Dr. Dennis Gross MD Skincare is a big hit with celebrities, socialites, and upwardly mobiles. The famous Manhattan dermatologist brought us the Alpha Beta Peel treatment that so many of us cannot live without. Their motto "Dermatologist Results Without an Appointment", stands true. Their secret , Microexfoliation™ which is a gentle, non–irritating method of removing cellular debris from the surface of the skin, resulting in a smoother, firmer more even complexion. I have been using the two step program since Christmas and my skin has been breakout free. I am all aglow!
Alpha Beta Peel for 30 day supply is $80.00
Innovative skincare, IS Clinical, pioneered a new strategy in the skincare industry. Based on Science meets Beauty the line is dedicated to developing clinically validated skincare products that improve the physical and emotional well-being of people globally. Developed by physicians and pharmacologists the anti-aging formulations produce results.
This celebrity fave is effective and worth the money. I love the new YOUTH Eye Complex. It tightens the skin around the eyes and reduces excess puffiness.
Youth Eye Complex $85.00
3LAB utilizes the highest-grade raw ingredients and advanced “state-of-the-art” scientific technologies to contest the forces of nature and time. Their futuristic technologies and cutting edge ingredients have produced one of the fastest growing luxury brands.
Bio-engineered growth hormone, green apple stem cells, astaxanthin microalgae are just a few of their youth enhancing ingredients to be found in any one of their serums or creams.
I have been using the the "M" Cream, and the "WW" Eye Cream on Regis and Kelly and can really see a difference in the texture of the skin.
"M" Cream $250.00 This lifting cream contains stem cells from a reare Swiss apple.
"WW" Eye Cream $250.00 Wrinkle smoothing and under eye brightening.
.
Ling Skincare combines the best of East meets West. The range features natural healing botanicals such as chamomile, almond oil and aloe (all free from alcohol, lanolin and fragrance)
One of my favorite products from this line is the Vitamin "C" Serum, Hi-Vitamin C 12% provides a powerful anti-oxidant to repair and defend the skin from environmental damage, restore suppleness while reducing pigmentation, scar tissue and age spots. In addition, this solution eliminates acne bacteria and encourages collagen production for a brightened and protected complexion.
Also the Hydra Squalane which is a solution derived from the natural olive plant. It nourishes the skin while restoring hydration. It is great for sensitive skin types.
Hi Vitamin C Serum $75.00
Hydra Squalane $75.00
If you have read any of my previous posts you would know how much I love Dr. Brandt.
I have the same affection for his products...because they work.
Millions of others seem to agree with me.
His Time Arrest line uses Dr. Brandt's AGE REVERSING PLATINUM TECHNOLOGY which increases cell
renewal and tissue repair, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
The Time Arrest Line promises to lift, firm and tighten.
Dr. Brandt Time Arrest Creme $100.00
Caudalie is based on the grape seed, which is 10,000 times more powerful than Vitamin E in combating free radicals.There are a wide range of products available from skincare to drinking teas.
I adore their Crushed Cabernet Body Scrub, my skin has never felt to soft.
The Vinexpert Firming Serum quenches my skin while giving it an immediate lifting action. It is a great staple to have in your beauty cabinet.
I used the Pulpe Vitaminee Regenerating Concentrate while I was traveling during the holidays. My bags were held hostage at Heathrow Airport, so for 7 days the only moisturizer I used was this tiny vial of Heaven. The objective of this concentrate is to de-stress the skin.
Pulpe contains essential oils that soothe and replenish and work wonders at keeping the skin in perfect balance.
Caudalie Crushed Cabernet Body Scrub $ 29.00
Caudalie Vinexpert Firming Serum $ 79.00

The past five years I have been a victim a merciless villian called, "Father Time".
This thief of my youth hijacked my furrow free forehead and tight jawline.
Like a damsel in distress I cried out ... Help! Help!
With gallantry and prowess my hero swooped in and rescued me from the cold-blooded villian, "Time".
His name is Dr. Fredric Brandt, highly sought after cosmetic dermatologist, best-selling author, and
innovator of Dr. Brandt Skin Care.
His mission...to Preserve, Protect and Restore.
This master rejuvinator has become a phenomenon in the field of cosmetic dermatology and is the Leader of Injectables..
A magician with the needle, Dr. Brandt revolutionized the use of Botox in cosmetic dermatology by pioneering the "Botox Necklift".
With an aesthetic eye for beauty and symmetry this skillful artist injects miniscule amounts of Botox and Restylane in my most depleted areas.
The results are astounding...he hands me a mirror every few minutes so that I can witness the transformation.
Ten years younger in ten minutes....how can it be??!!
It's a miracle!
Wait!!
It's Dr. Brandt's expertise and magical hands that have erased the years that Father Time embezzled from me.
