PRETTY SKIN FROM THE INSIDE OUT


Ask any dermatologist and they’ll tell you great skin starts from the inside. No matter what amazing products you get your hands on, they can only do so much if you aren’t taking care of your body. Here’s a cheat sheet of yummy foods that also help your skin along with my current skincare regimen.

Kale has tons of vitamin C which is great for your skin. Vitamin C promotes healthy collagen, keeping  your skin looking bright, youthful, and plump.

Spinach is rich in vitamin B which protects your skin from free radicals. It’s also got tons of vitamin K and folate which fight acne.

Avocados contain lots of carotenoids which are great for improving your skin’s overall tone and density.

Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries are loaded with antioxidants that protect our skin from the environment. They also have carotenoids to help skin tone and are proven to help skin build more collagen.

Oranges and other citrus fruits are beneficial for skin as well. They contain vitamin A to help your body fight viruses and bacteria that cause acne. Citric acid also helps rejuvenate skin.

My new focus on healthy skin from the inside out has prompted me to switch up my skin care. I’ve been using a regimen by bareMinerals and my skin is really loving it. I start with the Blemish Remedy Acne Treatment GelĂ©e Cleanser.  It’s got salicylic acid, sea salt, ginger root, and peppermint which is a natural astringent. It’s a deep cleanser that removes excess oil, I have combination skin so oil-control is a big deal for me.

Next I use the SKINLONGEVITY Vital Power Infusion. It has California Poppy (known for it’s ability to thrive in harsh conditions,) Lempuyang Ginger (which has medicinal properties,) and Long Life Herb (known to help skin fight pre-mature aging.) This gives my skin a beautiful glow and extra hydration. It smells heavenly and I like how my skin feels after I apply it.

I’ve also been loving the bareMinerals Butter Drench Restorative Rich Cream. I prefer rich moisturizers and this one is thick and hydrating. It’s made with shea butter which is hands-down one of the best skincare ingredients EVER. It’s hydrating, has a gorgeous scent, helps with skin tone, helps with fine lines, there’s nothing it can’t do.

Have you tried any of these bareMinerals products? What are your favorite natural ingredients and super foods? Leave a comment below and lets swap tips and tricks :)

What To Do When Your Brows Have Left The Building

Brows might be a pain sometimes and unless you are naturally gifted they are never as you would like them to be. Eyebrows are also incredibly important to the face and according to the way you shape or groom them they can completely change your look. However, sometimes in the attempt to look like one (…)

To Do: Try A Bright Pink Lip

Sure, earthy neutral tones are good and nice. But that story was published ages ago (in 2015). As the saying goes: new year, new face. Or at least a new shade of lipstick.

Something Hung Vanngo said last time he was in the office got us thinking about branching out a little. After a full afternoon of making up (then remaking up) the perfect canvas that is Josephine Skriver, the makeup artist said, “Sometimes if you add a little color, it gives a little youth to the face.” Point taken—but what about a lot of color?
So he started removing any and all traces of product on Josephine’s lip and replacing them with bright pink. “We’re just playing, you know what I mean? This is going to be a look for a girl who loves to play with color.”

Hung prepped her face with the Glossier Phase 1 Set (Priming MoisturizerPerfecting Skin Tint, and a bit of Balm Dotcom), then went in on the pink. He started with a CK One Color Lipstick in Wow, a matte fuchsia. “We’re going to do a reverse stain—fill it in with a pink Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil liner afterwards.” Then he tapped on the cream side of the CK One Color Cream and Powder Blush Duo.

The ‘Do’s’ here are:
Very dewy skin that contrasts with the matte lip
A defined lip shape. Touch up the edges with concealer and a brush.
Other colorful accoutrement. Josephine’s jacket is by Karen Walker.

And, of course, Hung also shared his list of ‘Don’ts’:
Don’t wear mascara: “A smoky shadow is fine, but lashes are too much.” Hung added a touch of L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Silver Sky all around Josephine’s eye area. Blend well.
Don’t use gloss: “I can add a bit of Lip Shine after I do the color if I want, but never lip gloss to start.”
Don’t wear too much blush. If anything, stick to cream. Better to air on the shinier side of things.

As we type this, it’s a blustery 30 degrees outside (without the windchill). Staying in and playing around with pink lipstick seems like just the activity to properly distract. Drop us a line if you’re doing the same thing wherever you are.

sarah_grunden


Even though I love winter, my skin does not really share the same opinion. I have some eczema on my neck because of the dry, cold air and I really need some remedy for this… Usually Im very good at taking care of my skin inside out but for the last couple of months Ive been neglecting it a bit, therefor Im in the situation I am in right now. 

This will be included in my morningroutine (strictly) from now on.
