Embryolisse is on Hautelook today! I purchased two!

I’m hooked on these Mai Couture blush papier sheets right now.  You rip out a sheet from the booklet and just rub it on your cheeks in a circular motion.  Their website says to use one sheet to cover both cheeks but I’ve been ripping the sheets in half and it has been more than enough product.  Each booklet contains 50 sheets.

Check out their website for more information!!

Saw this blemish/facial trick on The Ellen Show this afternoon:

Blemish trick: Rub garlic (YES, GARLIC!) (which is a natural antiseptic) on any problem areas to gets rid of bacteria in your skin.  This will help clear up zits.

Facial trick:  Mash up garlic and mix with tomato paste.  Rub onto your face and let it sit for 10 minutes.  The lycopene and acids in the tomato helps with scarring and the garlic will pull bacteria from skin.

I would be in heaven if NARS dropped this on my doorstep!

A great trick to shrink pores and tighten your skin is to apply a thin layer of Pepto-bismol on your face and leave for 10 minutes.  Wash off with warm water.

Do you have a big event and want to make sure you don’t sweat on your face?  Lightly apply a clear antiperspirant deodorant that is unscented on your face.  Test out the deodorant on arm beforehand to make sure you won’t have an allergic reaction.
