HairMax for Density Shampoo Review

HairMax, an established leader in Hair Growth, Hair Care and Hair Science, is a pioneer in the development of advanced hair loss treatments and hair growth products.
The revolutionary HairMax LaserComb® has redefined how you treat your hair loss and thinning hair. It is the first and only laser light hair growth device, FDA Cleared* for home-use to treat hair loss and stimulate hair growth in both men and women.

In addition to the LaserComb, HairMax also has a line of hair care products that have been formulated to stimulate new healthy hair growth by getting to the root of the problem, literally. HairMax for Density products were created to help exfoliate the scalp and remove build-up that can clog hair follicles. They contain ingredients that nourish the scalp and hair follicle and encourage thicker, stronger and healthier hair growth. These products can be used together with the LaserComb or on their own.

I was sent HairMax for Density Shampoo for review . This shampoo is sulfate free and has a low pH to gently cleanse your scalp and hair. This shampoo does a great job of cleansing your hair and removing any styling products. It leaves your hair feeling fuller and manageable. As you know I have shared my hair concerns regularly in this blog. It is thinning and flat and I am always looking for things that can help. While I can't say that I noticed some hair growth while using this shampoo, I did notice that there was less hair in the shower after washing. I would be willing to try the rest of the HairMax for Density collection. If the LaserComb wasn't so pricey I would be willing to try that as well. It sells for $495 but I suppose that's a bargain if it means not having to worry about a thinning head of hair. I am curious to know if anyone out there has tried this product?

You can purchase HairMax for Density products online. The shampoo sells for $18 alone or you can purchase a set that includes shampoo, conditioner, revitalizer and activator for $89.

BB Plus Illumination Facial Creme Review

I was sent a full product sample of BB Plus Illumination Facial Crème by Gerard Cosmetics for review.

BB Creams have become a must have beauty product for women. They are a great skin primer underneath makeup to conceal imperfections and even out skin tone and can even be used without makeup for a natural flawless look.  This twist on the traditional BB Cream does everything a good BB Cream should do with a little extra. It is formulated with light reflecting particles and a golden shimmer to add a youthful glow to your skin.

Features & Benefits

·         Can be used alone, as a cream highlighter or mixed with your favorite liquid foundation
·         Blurs imperfections and corrects discoloration
·         Universal shade adds radiance to any skin type or tone

I have been using this BB Plus Cream under my makeup. I love how light it feels. It is non greasy and leaves a silky feeling on your skin. It does a great job at hiding minor discoloration on my skin so that when I apply my foundation my skin looks smooth and even. It provides just a bit of shimmer that gives your skin a kind of sun kissed glow without looking too bronzy. It also works great as a contour for your cheek bones, highlighting them and making them stand out.

You can purchase BB Plus Illumination Facial Crème for $36 via www.whiteninglightning.com

ICU Eyewear Review

I have shared several anti-aging products with you in the past but one thing that you have probably never thought of when it comes to staying young is sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses should be an important part in your anti aging skin regime. For one, wearing sunglasses during those bright sunny days helps prevent you from squinting, squinting causes those pesky little lines around your eyes we know as crow's feet. Then there's those harmful UV rays, well not only can they be harmful to your skin but they can also damage the most sensitive part of your face, your eyes. We wear sunblock to protect our skin from the scorching sun it only makes sense that we should also be protecting our eyes.

ICU Eyewear has a nice selection of stylish sunglasses that will not only protect those peepers but will have you looking super cute. What's more they are totally affordable at only $21.95 a pair! At that price you can get a few pairs to add some oomph to your wardrobe. I was sent two different styles of sunglasses for review.

These adorable Retro Cat Eye sunglasses in yellow and tortoise shell. Cat eye frames happen to be one of my favorite styles because I think they look great with my face shape so I was in love with this as soon as I saw them. Even though these sunglasses are so inexpensive they do not look cheap and I have actually received several compliments when wearing them.

I also received these Large Retro Soft Cat Eye sunglasses in black. These are my everyday sunglasses. While they are a little plain they still look good. I make sure to keep these in my car so I am always protected and able to drive safely.

Aside from sunglasses ICU Eyewear also offers reading glasses, which I also happen to need. My fave of the bunch are these Two-Tone Fade reading glasses.

I want these!

So you know how I mentioned earlier about how affordable these glasses were? Well guess what?! If you purchase now until September 1st you can get an additional 30% off the already low low price. Crazy bargain! Not to mention they offer FREE shipping on all orders over $40. Go check out what they have in stock, your eyes and skin will thank you!

Mally Beauty Review

Mally Beauty is a line of cosmetics created by professional makeup artist and beauty expert Mally Roncal. Her love of all things glam drove her to create a beauty line that is not only used by a-list celebrities, and sold in high end stores like Henri Bendel and Fred Segal but is also available to women everywhere via QVC.com, mallybeauty.com and ULTA Beauty.

I was sent a High Shine Liquid Lipstick for review. These retail for $20 and come in over 30 shades. It is a 4-in-1 product that includes your lip primer, lipstick, lip gloss, and lip liner all in one! I was sent Nude Light for review. This lipstick is in a pen like container with a built in brush applicator. You turn the bottom knob a few times to get some of the lip color onto the applicator and then easily brush onto your lips. It really does leave a "high shine" on your lips. The particular shade I was scent is a nude with just a touch of pink. Your lips look natural with a little extra pop of gloss. I love how easy it is to apply and I love the color and feel on my lips. I love that I can wear it over any of my other lipsticks to add some extra shimmer. The only thing I am not too fond of is the smell and yes, the taste. No, I am not eating the stuff but it is kinda hard not to get a little taste of it in your mouth when it goes on your lips. It's a little chemical-y smelling and tasting. It's not overwhelming and definitely won't hinder me from using it again, but it is there.

I am actually pretty interested in trying some of the other Mally Beauty products because I can tell this is some high quality stuff. There is a ton of products to check out on the website and you can even purchase Starter Kits which feature products especially picked out to create your desired look.

Beverly Hills MD Venox Anti Aging Serum Review and Discount Code

Created by too Beverly Hills plastic surgeons, Dr. John Layke and Dr. Payman Danielpour, Beverly Hills MD Cosmeceuticals is the latest brand of anti aging products. These celebrated Beverly Hills doctors have transformed years of being in the "beauty business" into a beauty line accessible to everyone. Ideal for both men and women who are apprehensive about going under the knife, as well as those who like to maintain their appearance in between visits to the doctor's office. They currently have three products to help combat the signs of aging; Venox Anti Aging Serum, Scar Recovery Restoration Serum, Wrinkle Repair Night Treatment. In addition Beverly Hills MD offers a Lash Enhancing Serum and Dark Spot Corrector.

I was given the opportunity to review Venox Anti Aging Serum. This serum is one of the more celebrated products and was recently featured in InStyle magazine as a "miracle in a jar"- an anti–aging serum that has unlocked the secret to beautiful, healthy looking skin.

This powerful, fast-acting anti-aging serum utilizes a unique, groundbreaking formula to reduce and help eliminate the appearance of deep wrinkles and fine lines while promoting collagen production and cell turnover for tighter, brighter skin.

Benefits

·         » Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

·         » Boosts collagen levels and increases skin’s elasticity

·         » Reduces facial muscle cell contractions

·         » Tightens and firms skin

·         » Deeply hydrates skin

 

I    The directions on this product say that you can apply it to your face and neck either morning and night but preferably in the evenings for best results. I have been using it before bed since that's when I wash my face of the days makeup. Only a small amount is needed to apply a thin layer to your clean face and neck. It absorbs quickly without feeling greasy and leaves your skin feeling super soft. I am lucky in that I have good genes and have no signs of wrinkles at 37 years old. My mom who is almost 60 looks much younger for her age, thanks mom! Still it's never too soon to start taking care of aging skin and even postponing the inevitable for a little bit. This is a great  product and after just two weeks my skin feels so much smoother. So what's the science behind Venox?

 

      Much like Botox^®, Venox smoothes skin by hindering the muscle contractions that create lines and creases - without the injection. Four powerful ingredients make this possible:

• SYN-AKE^®, a synthetic snake venom that inhibits wrinkle-causing muscle contractions while increasing skin elasticity;
• Aloe Leaf Extract, which contains several antioxidants that help replenish aging skin's moisture and improve its natural firmness;
• Palmitoyl Peptides which aid in activating the synthesis of skin-plumping collagen;
• Extracts from the Ginkgo Biloba Tree which contain antioxidants that help slow down the aging process by protecting against free radicals.

You can purchase Venox Anti Aging Serum online for $149 and because our readers are so great they are offering all of you 30% off the retail price. Just use the code GIRLYGIRL in the next 2 weeks at checkout.
