Find A Way To Baby Soft Feet with Baby Foot!

Make sure to presoak and soak day after treatment:)) 

Make sure to presoak and soak day after treatment:)) 

Sandal season is officially upon us! If you're anything like me, your feet may have gone through a little neglect over the winter months, and a simple pedicure might not do the trick for you, but fear not! I am introducing a new product to my studio, Baby Foot! It does exactly what it sounds like, peels your skin of all dead skin cells, revealing baby smooth feet. The upside to this though is that it's a one time treatment. Yes, you will see results after one use. No filing, no scrubbing.

Don't forget to Facilitate this process soak your feet for 10 mins here and there. It helps looked the skin. Don not peel the skin.  

Don't forget to Facilitate this process soak your feet for 10 mins here and there. It helps looked the skin. Don not peel the skin.  

It works by using 17 types of natural extracts that will not only peel off the dead skin cells, but provide incredible moisturizing power and will help maintain your skin's texture. The main ingredient is fruit acid (collectively referred to as Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid) etc. You'll find these ingredients in many cosmetics and bath salts because it's safe to use, effective and has the ability to remove odor. 

Baby Foot is incredibly simple to use and after 5-7 days, the dead skin will start to peel off and the skin on your feet will be as fresh as a baby's foot, literally! I am offering them for $18 plus tax here at EmbellishU, just call or text in advance.

A Quick Guide To Music Festival Makeup

Festival season is here! With events like SXSW, Coachella, and much other like events, you may want to stand out and amp up your look. But how do you best plan for when the weather can change on a dime and your makeup might melt off after hours in the sun? 

The key is to be simple yet bold (a philosophy all in its own.) Maybe try a brightly hued eyeliner, like an electric blue or hot pink, and get a little geometric with the shape. Just be prepared for smudging later on in the day, but don't fret! Embrace the eventual decay of your eye makeup instead of trying to stop it before it happens. Organic is the way to be. Add a couple stick on gems a-la 90"s Gwen Stefani for a bedazzled look. 

Highlighting is another big trend this year, if you're not super into the tribal-y look.Take a shimmery powder and keep the focus on the highest points of your face; top of the cheekbones, brown bone, tip of the nose, cupids bow. Add a little to the inner corners of your eyes if you'd like. Remember, skin and lips are completely bare. Keep it breathable, people. And don't forget the SPF. Throw your hair up in a done yet undone looking braid, add a flower crown or another accessory, and there you have it. 

The main thing with any look is pure creativity. If you think it's weird, people are going to like it. It's a festival, something eccentric is basically required. 

 

🌻🌷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!! 

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.

Detox Your Skin with Charcoal

Everyone's been all about cleansing and doing detox's for your body. I want to introduce another "detox" that's also very important, for your skin. Activated charcoal is one of the buzziest ingredients in skincare right now. So, how exactly does activated charcoal (also known as activated carbon) work? Opposed to absorbing toxins, it adsorbs them. Meaning that, instead of soaking up dirt, all of the positively charged debris sticks to the negatively charged charcoal. This process erodes the charcoal to create a more even surface area, allowing it to adsorb 1,000 times its weight. Science! 

Good to know! A quick at home recipe!!

EmbellishU Derox Mask

EmbellishU Derox Mask

According to The International Dermal Institute, most women only spend about 20 seconds washing their face. With such a short amount of time, the binding and attraction properties of charcoal can really work for most people! Start incorporating charcoal into your skincare routine for noticeably softer, smoother and less-lined skin; vibrant, even tone, renewed clarity and a healthy glow. Who doesn't want that?

For spring I'm introducing a detox clay mask with activated charcoal to address dullness that your skin can have after these winter months. Also I have a balancing moisture mask for those with dry skin. Book your detox today and get glo-ing!

Spring Into Spring With Barely There Manicures

image.jpg

I know that spring is the last thing on anyone's minds with all this rain, but let's hope that this only means that warmer, sunnier days are upon us! Give your digits a fresh start with this years hot trend, barely there manicures. Instead of opting for your classic light pinks and other pastel colors, try a little nude, practically skin tone shade, for a done yet un-done look. It's a fresh, clean and simple look, great for spring. 

Coffin Nails for my Girl done with Matte Nail Polish

Coffin Nails for my Girl done with Matte Nail Polish

Try shades like Essie's Peak Show or for a polish with a little strengthener, OPI Nail Envy in Samoan Sand. Zoya also has a new great system called Naked Manicure, which features a base and polish to perfect any concerns you might have such as brightening or ridges. Don't forget I also do nails! A great little add on to your appointment with me (: Book online or through my app!

How To Make Facial Oils Work For You

Facial oils have become all the rage in the world of skin care. I know what you're all thinking, "my face is already oily," "that would clog my pores," " i don't want to look shiny." While you may notice some of these things if you're using heavier, greasier oils on your face, the truth is refined oils are wonderful for your complexion. 

Many people are under the assumption that oils are too thick and wouldn't penetrate the skin, and would leave the complexion greasy. Little do you know that good oil is the best thing you can put to your skin! Besides, a fresh, dewy, not greasy, complexion can create a youthful look and is great with spring on its way! 

image.jpg

Pure oils absorb deeper into your skin because of the finer blend of ingredients. When your skin begins to dry out, usually between your 30's and 40's, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't add a pure essential oil to your skin routine. It's best to use an oil when the skin is still moist, like after a shower or bath. The rule of thumb for choosing an oil is looking at the first five ingredients and always make sure the essential oil is at the beginning of the list. If an oil like avocado, almond, or another carrier oil is at the beginning, the blend is likely to be greasier or heavier. Opt for sage or geranium essential oils, for those with larger pores, and choose citrus, peppermint and rosemary oils for those with acne. Also, jojoba oil is thought to be the closest to the skin's sebum and therefore is considered the best carrier oil for all skin types. Apricot kernel oil is great for those with dry, prematurely aged or sensitive skin being that it's high in fatty acids.

I incorporate several essential oils in the skin treatments I offer. I also have essential oils available in my shop! Book online with me to discover how these oils can benefit you and your skin!

Guide To Crystal Elixirs

image.jpg

Morning! I want to introduce to you a new product here at EmbellishU, crystal elixirs! We all know the benefits to your well-being crystals can provide. A crystal elixir, essentially is a water based essence containing crystal energy. Water absorbs the crystals energy pattern, potentializes it, and stores it. These elixirs bring the healing power of a specific crystal to you. As with all spiritual practices, your intent is everything. It is best to set your intention before taking an elixir, for example, if you are using Ametrine to open your third eye, before taking the drops, state either in your head or verbally, "My third eye is now open, and so it is." This energy stated in the present tense is imprinted in the dosage and the desired outcome is manifested more quickly. Healing processes are magnified when the person is an active participant in their healing. 

Here is a list of some of the combinations I'll be providing!

  • love- rose quartz, moonstone, jade
  • money- citrine, jade, aventurine
  • protection- amethyst, hematite, snowflake obsidian
  • peace- amethyst, jade, blue lace agate 
  • healing- quartz, bloodstone, jade
  • good luck (good for gambling, or when you need a little luck on your side) - jade, citrine, quartz
  • emotional healing- rose quartz, blue lace agate, amethyst
  • purification - quartz, citrine, amethyst
  • weight loss- rose quartz, snowflake obsidian, jade
  • blessing and consecration- quartz, citrine, amethsyst
  • fertility- rose quartz, jade, unakite 
First Homade crystal Elixer!! Washed appropriate crystals, then boiled them. Intensifies the energy! We will see!!

How To Harness and Invoke Lunar Energies This Full Moon

Hi all! I'm feeling especially inspired by this full moon we have in Virgo tonight so I wanted to share with you some rituals to use this energy to your fullest potential! Full moons are all about release and letting go. This is an incredibly potent window of opportunity to change, remove, release, shift whatever in your field is not in highest alignment with your being and you have the entire universe by your side, immensely supporting you and blessing you as you choose higher. Allow these energies to cleanse your being and fully serve your soul, and release what doesn't nourish your heart. 

image.jpg

Start off with setting your intention. Manifestation is so instant and holding on to attachments of less than will constantly block your field from greater blessings. Grab a notebook or journal and write down everything you want to get rid of. Light some candles and burn some sage if you have, that will aid in grounding yourself and take away any negative energy. When you're done with your list, take at least three deep breaths and move your consciousness into your heart. Place your full intent on release and burn your piece of paper and imagine those things being purged from your life. It is also good to take any crystals you have and let the moon light charge and cleanse them so they can serve you better. 

 

I encourage you to please review your life today and see what is no longer serving you and what is no longer in harmony or balance. This specifically has to do with all relationships both in your outer world: with partner, job, location and with self. Know how serious the universe is about you letting go what isn't in balance and what isn't nourishing your soul. 

If you don't like who you are, where you are, what you are doing, who you're with...Change it now! You must participate relentlessly in the co creation of your future! No one else has the power to do this for you. 

Blessings dear ones!

Lexi

Happy Saturday!

Raindrop Angel Card Reading! 

Raindrop Angel Card Reading!

Attract some love into your life this Valentine's Day

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I wanted to share some ideas on manifesting love and the law of attraction. The secret of manifestation is that you do not create reality by what you think but by what you feel. Everything is a vibration and you attract those things that you are in vibrational resonance with. Your vibration is your feeling. The more you experience the feeling of having what you want, the more you will have it. You have the power to create anything your heart desires! If there is anything you want to create more of, focus upon it. Whatever you turn your attention to, you will create. What we give out, we get back. 

Imagine what your life would be like if your mind could always be focused on thoughts that were filled with joy, peace, love, abundance and feeling successful! Whenever you feel good, you are in vibrational harmony with your desires.

Along with just your thoughts, there are a few things you can practice to draw love into your life. Using select essential oils in your visualization and meditation practice create the ambience of magic. You could use rose essence, being that roses are the symbol of love. Jasmine, Ginger, Lavender, Ylang-Ylang, and Vanilla are great as well. Apply a bit of the oil under your nose, or on a tissue, and inhale while visualizing yourself as a beautiful, confident person, attracting the perfect love into your life. 

You could also create an altar in the relationship corner of your home. According to Feng Shui, the far right corner of your bedroom is considered the relationship area. Your altar can include fresh flowers, pink or red candles, romantic photographs, or statues that represent to you the image of love and family. Adding crystals is another great way to manifest your desires. Crystals are natural transmitters of energy. Rose quartz offers unconditional love and infinite peace and protection. It's the perfect choice for strengthening self love and forgiveness, and is also the crystal for manifesting and attracting true love. Malachite works to clear away painful heartache and make way for new love. Green Aventurine is known as the stone of love and luck. Carrying this stone with you will increase your confidence and luck at attracting new love in your life. 

I hope you can take these methods and incorporate them into your life to aid you in creating the life you want. Whether you're looking for romantic love or working on loving yourself. Always remember, if you believe it, you can receive it. 

Love and Light,

Lexi

The benefits of Glycerin and battling crepe skin

Get full advantage of all your product deep within your layers of skin!! 

Get full advantage of all your product deep within your layers of skin!! 

Dry skin is a common issue for many of us. It can be even more prevalent during these winter months. Between freezing temperatures, wind, lack of vitamin D, and other conditions, it can be tough to find relief. A common ingredient that can be used for multiple skin ailments is glycerin. Glycerin can be used to make cleanser, toner, moisturizer, treats acne, blackheads, dry skin, wrinkles, and various other conditions. Since glycerin is a humectant, meaning that it draws water into the skin, it is very beneficial for dry skin. It is also an emollient, which form an oily layer on the skin to trap water in the skin. These types of ingredients decrease itching and flaking, thus protecting the skin. 

Glycerin and other topical ingredients would also be useful in treating crepe skin; or mature, extremely dry skin. Crepe skin is caused by the loss of production of elastin and collagen, the protein that allows the skin to contract and stretch. For some people, it manifests itself in deep lines and facial wrinkles. With age, skin will feel drier because the body will stop producing as many new skin cells. That means the skin will also slow down the production of oils that are designed to rid the body of dead skin cells. To improve crepe skin, it is important to help the body naturally replace the supplies of collagen and elastin. Peptide creams or hyaluronic acid creams can help to stimulate the production of these proteins by making the cells reproduce more quickly. Microdermabrasion is also a great treatment to help aging skin. It works by scrubbing the upper layer of skin causing the skin to generate a new, healthier layer of cells. It is especially effective with crepey skin because the wrinkles are more prominent on the upper layers of skin.

Body exfoliation is key to making skin look at it's finest!! Then moisturize to plump, rejuvenate, and firm your skin! 

Get Your Glo On!

Skin brightening has become a more targeted subject in the field of dermatology. Both estheticians and their clients have been searching for ways to reduce melanin production in the skin. Some of the most common conditions of hyper pigmentation are age spots, melasma, freckles and acne scars. Now that we know more about skin pigmentation and how the skin makes melanin, we can more effectively utilize certain ingredients. Much of the research in the field focuses on tyrosinase, an enzyme that spurs melanin production from tyrosine through oxidation. In the pathway, tyrosinase is produced by the melanocyte (the skin cell responsible for pigmentation) and is responsible for several reactions. You can limit melanin by limiting tyrosinase anywhere along its pathway.

There are some brightening agents that I am very excited about! There are marine active ingredients, that work on signaling proteins in the skin for melanin production and DNA repair. Although algae has been used for many years in skin brightening formulations, its being brought to a peptide level to help more with melanin inhibition. The use of botanical extract ingredients is a method I strongly suggest. They are gentler to the skin and our body automatically knows how to process them. One argument about botanical ingredients is whether they are as effective as their chemical counterparts. Traditionally, treating hyper pigmentation chemically has been done by bleaching the skin with either hydroquinone or kojic acid. While these ingredients are fast acting and effective, if you were to stop using the product at any point in time, it could actually make hyper pigmentation worse. This is because they can be cytotoxic to melanocytes in large amounts. Because of this, skin may respond to these chemicals negatively, resulting in production of more melanin. One of the best benefits of using plant extract and peptide-based products is that there’s little to no chance of doing serious harm to the skin.

I always recommend doing your research and finding a company that uses high quality botanicals and is well-versed on how to handle them during formulation. The effectiveness of these products depend on the knowledge of the developer, especially when it comes to which part of the plant to use. For the best results in treating hyper pigmentation, look for products that work at multiple points during the production of melanin. Since there are so many ways to treat hyper pigmentation, it is better to utilize different methods so that they can work cooperatively for an overall better effect. Keep your skin fresh and glo-ing!

 

Best,

Lexi

Time To Undo

 

A new year is the perfect time to refocus on renewing your lifestyle and rejuvenating yourself. While many people make New Year’s resolutions to get back into shape, they forget that their skin could use some repairing, too. With the stress, excess eating and drinking, lack of sleep and traveling that comes with this time of year, it can really start to show on your face. Also, the adverse effects of winter weather can leave your complexion looking dull, dry and tired.

 

Our Image skin care line has all the products you need to get your skin looking healthy, hydrated and luminous! The Vital C collection is geared towards environmentally damaged skin. Including vitamin C, they also contain vitamin A and E and other essential vitamins, peptides, and antioxidants to soothe dehydrated skin. The hydrating serum, which was voted best Image product, is one I highly recommend. It is ideal for all skin types, smooths visible effects of fatigue, and fights free radicals. You can apply to cleansed skin morning and evening or even combine with your favorite foundation for a dewy, youthful finish.

 

Another common issue we all face is dark circles. In addition to a lackluster complexion, nights of missed sleep are most noticeable around the eyes. Lack of sleep also makes the face look paler, giving a concave appearance around the eyes.  The intense brightening eye crème delivers a complex of encapsulated lightening ingredients that release for up to 48 hours for a long lasting effect. It also helps to significantly reduce the visible signs of aging around the eyes including puffiness, wrinkles and lax skin. Your eyes will instantly look firmer, brighter and more radiant!

 

Another good method to use is to incorporate essential oils into your routine. Not only are they beneficial to your skin, certain aromas can open up your airways, a must have during winter months! A good salve can be used as a moisturizer or be applied to your chest to ease breathing.  As always at EmbellishU we not only encourage looking good on the outside but also feeling great on the inside and treating our bodies right.

Want to know what changed my life and was able to give me opportunity to be my own boss?

Life can throw some hard balls at you, I think we can all agree on that. Sometimes you need an angel to come down and help you and that's exactly what happened for me and my story.  

I was in a dead end job going no where made $300 a week, rent was $1000. I had to buy food, utilities, cell phone, and that does not cover the cost of clothes to look professional. My car was a total hazard. I was told it was a death trap. 

So one Easter a friend of mine we went to AC   I have no idea where he went, so I went on my merry way started playing craps. This man appeared out of no where. He says " here play". So I did, and I started wining and winning BIG he said please take this money, Put it in your bag you need it. I was a little confused, cause I am not a street walker as  I told him. Then he chuckled. I did not know what to do, what did this all mean, how much longer could I play before it became greed? Do you think I can do this more often? My mind was racing. So that night I walked away with a good amount of money. I put myself through eyelash school that was my first investment, the basic and advanced, purchased the kit (ours were not included), bought a massage table, and a computer. This man changed my life. So thank you whoever that man is out there I am eternally grateful. 

Doing eyelashes raised the bar for me, as you will learn in my class. There are so many techniques, and I have been to 4 schools none like my first school. She was the best. I have picked up so many tips, and tricks that have made it a lot easier too. It takes hard work and dedication but it's worth it in the end. When you see how happy your clients are and you get compensated accordingly. Not just anyone can do this or teach it. It takes patience. Take a step in a new direction and add this to your repertoire.  I want to be the one to change your life so you can provide for your family or make a better life for yourself..

All my Best,

Lexi

So if you don't know I have been on this quest to find the best beauty products I possibly can for my business. I have tried so many and basically got either no result or it wasn't enough!! I want more... From serums, to toners, creams, peels, and makeup! 

Well I have found my 3 lines that I am totally loving!! I'm sure I'll cherry pick from one or two more eventually. So I found this product when I was walking at the esthetic show with one of my associates and she led me to this company names BSB (Bella Schneider Beauty). They have some amazing ingredients they stay cutting edge with their technology to give your skin the best result. To name a few Kojic acid, rose, and seabuckthorn oil. Seabuckthorn oil is very high in vitamin A and E which are essential for young skin, and helps restore skin after aging has already affected it. Destroy free radicals and stay looking great!! I'm in sign me up!! This is also good for eczema patients as well.

Kojic acid is completely natural and is a skin lightener. It stops the production of melanin in your skin.  Melanin is the substance that gives your skin color. The darker you are the more you have. Kojic acid has longer shelf life even tho it is natural, pretty cool right? It actually resists oxidation and spoilage... So your product won't go bad!! The other commen skin lightener that doctors recommend is Hydroquinone which causes incredibly dry skin, rashes, even contact dermatitis! Short lived reaction but No Thank you!! Kojic acid is the new technology! Out with the old in with the new.  

Ok so on to my favorite foundation, I typically use Glo minerals tinted moisturizer that has and 30 SPF. I love it... My skin has changed since using the Glo mineral line. If I am going to put makeup on my face I want dual action! I want it to be working at making my skin look pretty also firming, giving me vital anti aging Vitamins while I wear it!!! All my products I am selling on my online Boutique for purchase. Or you can also join me in a Mommy makeover or just a girls night out! I will demonstrate how to take care of your skin and teach you how to do an everyday makeup look!! So I have this BB cream that has a little more coverage then a tinted moisturizer but it's healthy for your skin! There has been a craze about BB cream but I could not find one that is healthy for my skin. Until now! This Premier beauty balm does it all : Amino Acids, proline and palm oil boost penetration of ingredients smooth away visible wrinkles. Moisturizing oils hydrate and soften fine lines, enhance skin glow while advance concealing formula and light tint natural all over coverage for discoloration even for under eyes. Vitamin E eliminates damaging free radicals, supports broad spectrum uv protection!! Gentle enough to use post peel or procedures too!! This is a beauty must have!! This BB cream is a must!! Easy to carry! Def a staple to have:)) Tune in later this week I will be going over illuminators, and how you can use them.. 

 

All my Best,
