Emjoi Micro-Pedi Gives You Smooth Feet in Seconds!

Emjoi recently released their newest device, the Micro-Pedi, on the UK version of QVC, where it sold 10,000 units in less than 24 hours. This Mid-July launch swept away both men and women. It even has already received rave reviews from magazine editors and bloggers.

By September, U.S. shoppers will get their hands on the Micro-Pedi at Sally Beauty, Ulta and several other retailers. It’s not hard to wonder why everyone wants it. In just two to three seconds, it removes dry, cracked and callused skin from the bottom of your heels.

You will instantly feel how soft and smooth your feet are. No more worrying about using harsh metal blades that scratch and cut your skin. The Emjoi Micro-Pedi removes that rough and dry skin for you!

It consists of two rollers — a blue one for extra-coarse skin and magenta for coarse skin — both that spin at a total of 30 seconds at a time. The rollers buff away at the skin, without causing any pain or cuts. The Micro-Pedi also has a sturdy handle that’s ergonomically designed to maneuver in either of your hands.

Beauty and fashion bloggers were lucky to receive a road test sample from LiptonPublicity.com. There is nothing but rave reviews for this device. It eliminates the need for pumices, loofahs or blades. You also will save money on getting a pedicure at your local salon.

The Emjoi Micro-Pedi will sell for $39.95. If you can’t wait, purchase it online at Emjoi.com. There, you can check out the specifics, user instructions and care instructions.

Can You Get Hooked On Lip Balm? (Book Release)

If you ask a lot of beauty questions (like I do), then you will like “Can You Get Hooked on Lip Balm?” from the brains at the www.TheBeautyBrains.com website. Perry Romanowski is the face of the team of brainiacs. He has spent 18 years researching and testing and questioning countless beauty products. This book not only answers if you can get addicted to lip balm, but also asks if adults can use baby shampoo, why your nails turn yellow after you wear nail polish, and if your makeup contains poison. This is a must-have for your bathroom or vanity. It will change the way that you know about skin care, hair care, and cosmetics. You may even catch your guy reading it in the bathroom!

TEN TRUTHS YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT YOUR COSMETICS:

1.    Curling Shampoos Don’t Work!

2.    Wearing the right fragrance can actually make people think you have lost weight.

3.    While brushing your hair does temporarily help distribute natural oils, in the long run brushing “100 strokes every night” strips layers of cuticle and weakens hair.

4.    There is no proof that tourmaline flat irons perform any better than the less expensive non-ceramic versions.

5.    Sunscreen is one of the best cosmetics you can use to keep your skin looking young and wrinkle-free.

6.    Spit on a zit may not be an old wives’ tale after all!

7.    There is a difference between antiperspirant and deodorant. Antiperspirant actually stops you from sweating, while deodorant just masks the odor.

8.    No cosmetic will make your nails grow longer and stronger, but you can do things to improve their condition.

9.    Urea is found in cosmetics, but it does not come from urine!

10. Multiple types of parabens are used in formulas to ensure that your personal care and cosmetic products are as free as possible from disease-causing microbes.

To find out the details to all of the above truths (and dozens more!) pick up a copy of CAN YOU GET HOOKED ON LIP BALM? Top Cosmetic Scientists Answer Your Questions about the Lotions, Potions, and Other Beauty Products You Use Every Day.

The Acne Regimen that is Free and Simple to Use

Acne is a dirty four-letter word. It makes you feel unclean and nerdy. The common misconception associated with acne is that only teenagers have it. Adults suffer with acne too. I had acne since I was 12 years. Now that I’m 25, I am going through adult acne. As I was recently feeling frustrated about my complexion, I visited the www.acne.org website. I came across Dan Kern’s “Regimen.”

Not only is it free, but it is so simple. I’ve been on the regimen for four weeks now, and my face has gotten clearer than it has ever been. It does not matter if you are using Neutrogena or Proactiv. You have to use those products correctly for them to work. Follow the steps below:

1. Cleanse

Allow a stream of warm (not hot) water to run on your face. Do not rub your face.

Squeeze two to three pumps of cleanser in your hands. Rub your hands together until the cleanser lathers.

Gently wash your problem areas for 10 seconds. Rinse until the cleanser is washed away.

2. Benzoyl Peroxide Treatment

Wash your hands and dry them.

Dispense two to three pumps of Benzoyl Peroxide.

Lightly apply the treatment on your face. Pay special attention to problem areas.

Do not rub it in since rubbing causes irritation and break outs.

3. Moisturize

Wash your hands and dry them.

Use two to three scoops or pumps of moisturizer.

Lightly apply the moisturizer on your face. Your fingers should glide across your face.

Do not rub in the moisturizer. Allow it to absorb into your skin.

Guidelines:

Follow the Regimen everyday, twice a day. (Ideally 10 to 12 hours apart.)

Follow closely, use gentle touches, and use a lot of Benzoyl Peroxide.

When drying your face with a towel, do not rub or scrub. Instead, lightly pat your face with the towel, and allow the rest of your face to dry.

Do not touch your face frequently, or pick at your break outs! Wash towels and sheets since they can collect bacteria.

If you experience any dryness on the Regimen, do not stop it. Instead, use 5 to 6 drops of jojoba or argan oil to reduce flakiness.

If you want to learn more about the Regimen visit the www.acne.org website. This informative website has how-to guides, videos, a message board, and product reviews.

Opening of LAS8 Paris Maison de Couture

Maison de Couture LAS8 Paris arose from the combined passion and efforts of its creators, who have launched their first collection (for men and women) at the end 2010.

The style of the line is led by the desire to accentuate the body’s curves by following them precisely. And so in 2010 the woman’s line has come to be with its famous boleros. The man’s line, perfectly fitted, shows more striking lines and revisits the timeless biker jacket.

Revealing a noble and dominant character, exotic leathers and precious skins are a fascinating working base and an inexhaustible source of inspiration for LAS8. Finally, the interplay of rare and luxurious leathers and colours strengthens the unique characteristics of our models with their own identity.

In 2010, the brand opens its first showroom in Paris where it has developed its passion for sewing as well as exotic skins and furs. LAS8 Paris thinks of its creations as a composer refining a score. It opened to a select public in December 2010.

Winter Skincare Offerings from Completely Bare Spa & Elizabeth Grant

With at least 8 weeks of winter weather left, we all need an emergency escape plan to cure our dry, sallow skin. Elizabeth Grant‘s facial treatments and Completely Bare‘s body treatments will refresh, hydrate, smooth, and impart a youthful glow factor within skin in even the most desperate need of a spring thaw.

Elizabeth Grant’s Caviar Skin Mask $50 This nourishing skin mask goes on like a thick cream to hydrate and smooth the appearance of ruddy, dry, and sensitive skin. Like celeb fan Kelly Rutherford, apply a thin layer to face, neck, and chest and allow it to set for 20 minutes. The exclusive formula contains avocado oil, Torricelumn, and caviar, and essential vitamins (A, B, D, & E) to heal and restore on the cellular level. Rinse off with warm water and follow with night cream. This one step is easy enough to do before bed, while reading your favorite gossip site, or even a little bit of luxury while you organize your iTunes!

Elizabeth Grant’s  Collagen Lip Restore $18: This little wonder-pot, coveted by the likes of Brooke Shields and Leighton Meester, will deliver anti-aging hydrating cracked, dry lips in a jiffy. It’s convenient enough to sit in your purse, and beautiful enough to be left on the bathroom counter. Hyarloronic Filling Spheres rapidly smooth skin, while collagen goes to work on instant rejuvenation.  If you’re feeling frisky when you’re on the go, try using this product as a perfect cuticle softener, eyelash conditioner, a long-lasting fixfor untamed brows, or quick relief for small patches of eczema.

Completely Bare’s completely smooth for body $42: Weather conditions are hard to predict in the middle of winter, but one thing is certain: dry, scaly legs will likely need fixing. Completely Bare’s completely smooth lotion is packed with vitamins and formulated with shea butter to lock moisture in, but busy gals like celeb fan Fergie love it for its hair inhibiting technology, to keep you as smooth as can be. It’s clinically proven to visibly diminish hair texture by up to 55%, density by up to 50%, and length by up to 30%. That’s pretty impressive for a body lotion that has a clean, fresh scent and will leave your skin feeling incredibly soft through the entire day.

Completely Bare’s model tan $36: Show off soft, ‘sun’-kissed skin, infused with antioxidants, shea butter and vitamins A, C & E from with the use of model tan.  Durable & thick enough to use alone as a tinted body moisturizer? Sure! But the insiders, like celeb fan Katherine Heigl, use it to create a beautifully bronzed tint in their favorite winter body butter. With only twice weekly use, you’ll have a flawlessly touchable finish to your body that rivals any day on the beach.
