Ever Try Counting Sheep to Sleep? Yeah doesn't work! See my fav things to help me catch Zzzzz's

1. My all time favorite is my eye mask! I been wearing one forever. I actually use the brand buckys from Amazon. You can still move your eyes and it's great for woman with lashies! It blocks all the light and just shuts off the brain. There is also studies that it puts you in a deeper sleep. Your R.E.M.(rapid eye movement the most important restorative sleep)and it's so true for the occasional night I misplaced them I feel the difference.

2. This is maybe equal to my first essential oils. I give myself a little neck massage. Rub some peppermint on my belly to soothe me. On my head after a long day and if I have a headache. Lavender on my chest. I'm literally a essential oil junkie. Also inhalation taking deep breaths and inhaling lavender or stress relief. Not the peppermint!! That will not put you asleep. Make sure to keep the peppermint away from your eyes.  

3. Taking a nice warm bath with Epsom salt. Epsom salt will help ease your muscles, and detoxify your days negative energies away. A great cleansing.  

4. Washing my face using my Image cleanser, also using a great nighttime retinol mask. Knowing I will wake up looking fresh and hydrated! Brushing my teeth, and always have h20! Stay hydrated always.. 

5. Stay off phone and electronics and read usually I'm fast asleep in about 10 minutes. 

I hope this helps you to a better night sleep!

Are Lash Lifts for you?

After attending an all day class. Look at the separation and the ends. Ahh puurrrfection!! Love it! I get so excited.. 

What's all the craze about these lash lifts these days!! Well I have to say they are pretty amazing.. I think it's a great way to give the look of having natural lashes without all the fuss of getting them maintained every 2-3 weeks. They will last 6-8 weeks.  

I mean look at the eyelid lift that's unreal!! Magic happens at EmbellishU!! 

One part I love about the lash lift,  is it's giving woman a chance to see ​themselves bare and natural. It's nice to get use to yourself "naked". You don't need it all your beautiful just the way you are. We just choose to embellish more with lash extensions, and such casue it does save us time during the day. 

This lift looks amazing, but this is before I attended class. This is what you see around not bad but could be better! 

Ok, so the part that is a little tricky about lash lifts is the growing out/shedding phase. They do get a litttle wonky! (I like that word) You have different shedding cycles same as extensions. They are at 3 different phases. So some will still be curled, straight and it does make it harder to put mascara on. ​

To my last final thought. EDUCATION. I have been redoing clients lifts. You can't just learn online, it gives you and overall understanding of the procedure but you need to go to a class. Ask them if they were certified with a school they attended. It makes a huge difference. The placement of the hair is everything. A good lash lift takes about 45-75 mins. Longer if I have to fix wonky lashes. Again ask your questions, don't go to the cheaper place, see where they went to school. It's your eyes. I hope this helps!!   Schedule your lash lift for the summer go 6-8 weeks without maintenance!! Follow this link http://bit.ly/2ex2g0a  See you around!

Volume Lashes, The Ultimate Luxury of Eyelash Extensions!

2/3D Volume Lashes

Cat Eye 2/3 D

Let's face it the lash industry has really boomed over the last eight years. It's not a cheap service and you get what you pay for!! It truly its a luxury service, and a really amazing experience too. My main priority after the health and safety of your lashes, is making you feel comfortable. I want you leaving relaxed, rejuvenated, and revitalized. The atmosphere and my crystal warm bed will heal you from within. Now lets go on to explain what Volume Lashes are!

Volume Lash extensions is a new technique that can offer great volume, so many lashes up to 360 per eye! Seriously it’s like POW! It is unique in itself to also offer to woman that are not able to wear classic lash extensions, due to having sparse thin lashes. Whether it is from a medical condition, hereditary or with age, as we know things change.  Let me tell you a little history about the two techniques so you can understand them a little better.

This is the Premier lash of them all! kardashion lash 3/4 D

Classic lash extensions are done with one single lash extension that is applied to one of your own natural lashes at the base of your eye, but before your skin. Myself or another technician does this by using two long stainless steel sanitized tweezers. One tweezer holds the lash extension and one tweezer isolates one single natural lash. Now if you have sparse hair we cannot fill in any gaps. We can apply hair where hair is. There are different weights and lengths in lashes and all that is based on the health of your own natural lashes. 

Full on Glamour! 3/4 D

Now we get to Volume Lash Extensions. So as far as the technique goes and isolation of the lashes its all the same. Volume lashes is a technique that you will pick up very fine eyelash extensions 2,3,4,5,6 lashes at one time. You create small fans. This technique really is for technicians that are already advanced in there lash career. I say this cause you really have to know how much glue and the weight of the lashes. Health and safety first, always!! The lashes are much more fine this way you can use more lashes on one eye and fill in gaps and give the illusion of having longer, thicker, and more full lashes. Without compromising the integrity of your lashes. The price of volume lashes is anywhere from $350 to $400 for a full set. The maintenance is $100/$125. It takes up to 3hrs to put them on. The fill can take up to 2hrs. Usually about 1.5, but when you go full on it takes longer. If anyone says it should be quicker trust me it's not a good reputable place. 

So that is the difference between the two lash techniques. I hope you understand a little more and know there is something for everyone! If you want to hear more or have any questions subscribe and be in touch!

Love and lots of Light,

The Best Spring Makeup Trends For 2016

Spring has finally sprung here in New Jersey (at least for now) which means it's time to up your look! Everybody feels a little better when the temperatures start rising, and you start to put a little more effort in. The no-makeup makeup trend has been around for a while, but that reign is over. It's time for bright red lips, electric eye's, glitter and fluffy lashes. 

Classic look red lip and black liner. For a super easy look when you have zero time in the am!! Throw hair in a bun and add a POP OF RED COLOR TO LIPS!! you will look perfectly prepped:)) 

A red lip is always a classic, but on the runways for spring this year it's never been so evident. The color to keep in mind: Snow White apple red, with a satin finish, for a fresh low maintenance look. Or if you want a little more drama, go for a stay in place all night matte. There's tons of liquid to matte lipsticks out there nowadays. Opt for a simple black liner on the eyes and you're set. 

Smutty Green From Mac

Apply to inner corners to outside corners! Want to make it super intense!!! Dampen your brush and pat it on!! 

My favorite look I've been seeing is blue for the eyes. Yes I know you're all thinking, "how the hell do I wear that?" The answer, any way you want. Don't be afraid of a little color. You can do a smoky eye with a sparkly navy instead of your traditional browns and blacks. You could even take a cobalt blue liner and use it on your bottom lash line and smoke it out a bit with a neutral shadow. Any way you choose isn't wrong, have fun! 

This is so much fun!! This was my go to back in the day!! Wear it on your lashes over mascara. Get it at

www.ramy.com

Now this is fun! Keep the eyes soft. You can use soft brown from Mac. Also do a blue line under your eyes mixed in with the soft brown... You are the next fashion statement:)) 

Now mascara has been on the back burner for a little while, but the emphasis on lashes has made a come back. For those of you that are on the blue eye movement, another fun trick is to add some colored falsies, just to the outer corner of your eye. Pair it with bare skin and a nude lip to really make them stand out. Also, you could always invest in a little eyelash extensions, at EmbellishU (; for a fluffy, flirty new look! 

Bronze Summer Glo! EmbellishU is Master Certified with Norvell sunless tanning systems.

Do you want Eyelash Extensions, but have some Q&A's, Here This May help You!!

If you live in the Ocean, and  Monmouth County Area!! EmbellishU is the place to be:) I am the best in my industry for eyelash extensions, and volume lashes, Exclusive and private treatments Focusing on YOU!!  If you been somewhere else, and think your lashes are ok, but that's maybe how it is? Come to me! I will show you the best!! I don't like to say I am the best! It's just what I am told:) I am highly recommended by a professional associate of mine Dr. Louis Iorio.

Here is a Beautiful Set of Classic Lashes

When choosing a salon or technician to apply eyelash extensions and for any reason, andI’m not your choice please be sure to inquire if your technician is a licensed esthetician, and or cosmetologist. Ask to view proof of certification from a reputable Eyelash Extensions Training and Certification Company stating the technician has completed a hands-on, Eyelash Extensions Safety and Technique training course. When it comes to the health of your eyes and lashes, it is worth the time it takes to find the safest and best qualified professional around.

Finally, if you do happen to choose me, I mostly prefer to start with a fresh new set of Lavish Lashes. Some times it’s easier then having to fix any botched up mess. Then I will be fully responsible for my work when I can call it my own!! 

Please Note:

Volume Eyelash Extensions for the advanced Lash Artist

**Prices are subject to change at any time. Also every 4th or 5th fill you will incur a higher cost fill. We go thru a natural shedding period and you will require a price increase.

Q&A's

• They have a natural look and feel.
• The procedure is relaxing. Most clients fall asleep
• They're easy to maintain. they're semi permanent, water-resistant, and there's no need to apply mascara or any other product to your lashes everyday.
• They provide quick gratification; full sets can take 1 hr to 3 hrs to apply. Touch-ups take anywhere from 45 min to 1.5 hrs to apply. Depending on style, length in between fills, how you wear them, and home care. 
• Eyelash Extensions can be customized to enhance features to give a more youthful appearance.
• Generally touch-ups are every 3 weeks.
• Eyelash extensions need to be cleaned at least 2x a week., with a product containing zero oil. Cleansed daily if you wear makeup.
• After application you can get them wet after 2 hrs. (Only when using a nano mister)
• Remove all makeup nightly, by not cleaning or removing your makeup causes buildup on your lashes that breaks down the bond of the glue, causing them to fall off quicker. Plus you can get disease and lash mites.
• Do not twist or pull at your eyelash extensions, that can cause damage to your own natural lash.
• Enjoy waking up and looking awake and ready to go
• Will cut your time in half when getting ready. Useful time to do other things......
• When you see your natural lash adhered to the extension, this is normal. It just means your own natural lashes are shedding. 

So if your in the Jersey Shore area, Ocean and Monmouth county, Manasquan Give Me a call I assure you you will be in good hands. I have the hands of a surgeon and the eyes of and artist.

🌻🌷April Services brings lots of Treats! Not for us but our furry friends with 4 feet!!

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to share what's going on with EmbellishU for this month of April. As some of my guests already know, I am donating a portion of my income for the month of April to Ocean County Animal Shelter also a dear friend of mine, has a friend down in Virginia. I will be sending some proceeds there as well.  http://www.healingheartsanimalrescue.com/ 

This is Bentley! Old English Bulldog who loves his HaloCouture Extensions!! 

In a busy world and building my business there is not much time left over for much to do socially. Over on Instagram 5 weeks ago I made the announcement. I had an ah-ha moment that giving back is a great way to be involved for a greater cause and to help whichever cause I feel passionate towards. I don't need a lot of time socially to make a difference.  

We all have our dear animals that we love so much. I know I have colored my dogs hair with manic panic when I was about 9. Polished my dogs toenails, put sunglasses on him, and some people go all out. Look at Lisa Vanderpumps dog Giggy. (Lol) he has a skin disease that's why he gets fully dressed. We give so much love to our animals. Even if it makes a small difference it's still a positive shift in the world.  

So I want to thank you to all my clients coming in and making this possible for me. If you want to be part of this come in and book a service... Let's spread the love and good cheer. Also, if you have pics of your animals dressed up post them!! I want to see!! Please share!!  

Thank you,  

A.
