Need a Foundation Match? Check out Vapour Organic Beauty’s New Comp Service

January 28, 2011 / 1 Comment

One of my favorite brands, Vapour Organic Beauty is launching a matching service that is pure genius. (Actually I have thought of it for years, I just don’t have a brand…Investors—hit me up!)

To help you find your perfect shades, Vapour is launching a new complimentary service to help you discover the best foundation and concealer for your skin type and tone. Vapour’s Atmosphere Luminous and Soft Focus foundation collections and Illusionist concealers have gained significant attention for gliding smoothly on the skin and blending in seamlessly for gorgeous results.

Available in a wide range of shades, you will notice more evenly toned skin that looks beautiful and feels soft to the touch. Vapour’s all-natural moisturizing base allows for essential minerals to move and breathe with your skin, allowing for a delicate play of light for a sophisticated glow.

Note: If you use this service and mention my blog, Blinging Beauty, you will receive a free concealer!

Here’s how the consult works:

Bad Beauty Habits: Taylor Resolves to Wash Her Face

I don't have acne or breakout much, so I usually just wash my face in the shower with plain water and rush out the door (after drying off and getting dressed, of course). Even though I know that it's a bad beauty habit, laziness and a hectic schedule (can you say 8 a.m. classes?) make it a hard one to kick. I'm a Chemistry/Math major, so I know that dirty skin + no cleanser=breakouts. Not cute. Over my winter break, my (nonexistent) skin regimen totally backfired on me. With the school year starting back up, I'm going to break my bad beauty habit. I resolve to wash my face…with actual cleanser… at least once a day. I already have a cleanser that I have been using since my mom first spotted a pimple on my forehead—Doctor's Dermatologic Formula Blemish Foaming Cleanser. The cosmetic formulation of DDF Blemish Foaming Cleanser, $38: What it is: A gentle cleanser that reduces oil without over-drying. What it is formulated to do: This skincare essential, tailored to the needs of normal-to-oily skin types, helps fade post-inflammatory red spots while minimizing future blemishes. A blend of salicylic acid, azelaic acid, red clover, and golden seal extract delivers clear, healthy results. Now it's your turn to "come clean!" What bad beauty habit do YOU resolve to break in 2012?

Bad Beauty Habits: R’Chelle Will Take Better Care of Her Hands

As much as I advocate for skincare and beauty routines to enhance your outer beauty I fall terribly short when it comes to one important area, my hands! Last week I took a look at my hands and they looked like I’d been playing in a box of rocks. Without question my beauty resolution will be to take better care of my hands this year. In an effort to restore the moisture and health into my hands, I’ll be using Clinique Even Better Dark Spot Correcting Hand Cream Broad Spectrum SPF 15 $29.50. What it is: A soothing hand cream that moisturizes and helps create a more even skintone. What it does: This rejuvenating hand cream helps reverse the appearance of dark spots, age spots, and discolorations, producing a smoother, clearer skintone. The gentle UVA/UVB sunscreen and calming botanicals work to prevent future darkening, leaving hands feeling soft, supple, and moisturized all day long. Shop:

Product Review—Hair: Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream

I have never used Phyto products before, when I received the Phyto Secret De Nuit to review, I thought it was a night cream for my face. Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream – the name and description screams FACE product to me, but to my delight, I received a wonderful night cream for my hair. Here are the details for Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream $38: What it is: A night restorative treatment for all hair types. What it is formulated to do: This powerful night cream regenerates the hair fiber and provides up to eight hours of intense hydration, nourishment, and repair. It creates a protective shield against free radicals and oxidation, and leaves hair feeling remarkably stronger, healthier, and shiner. What it is formulated WITHOUT: • Parabens • Sulfates • Phthalates My results: Before I put a new product on my face, I like to smell it. I pumped a small amount on my fingers so I could check the consistency and to take a whiff, see what I’m working with. The texture is nice and creamy with a light, lovely fragrance. I applied the small amount I had on my fingers to my face and went about the rest of my day. Imagine my surprise when I read the directions and realized this product is applied to your hair…oops! I’ve never used a night conditioner on my hair and to be honest, I was thinking I don’t want to go to bed with wet hair and wake up to a pillowcase covered in a gooey mess. Our editor-in-chief doesn’t allow the quick answer of ‘no’ for a product. Just as we have to review and say why we like a product, we also have to say why not. I knew I had to give it a try because like it or hate it, I had to say – why either way. The bottle has a pump dispenser, which dispenses the cream in small amounts. To get the ‘hazelnut’ size amount of product the directions call for, it takes about 3-4 pumps. I apply the cream to my hair by simply combing through my hair with my fingers, the cream absorbs quickly and does not leave my hair feeling wet. I repeat the process concentrating on the ends oh my hair, where I have the most damage and then twist it up in a bun before going to bed. The next morning, style as usual. I am thoroughly impressed. My hair truly feels like it has been intensively nourished, with my ends feeling silky and my hair in general feeling soft. I have found with my hair it’s best not to use the Phyto Secret de Nuit Intense Hydration Regenerating Night Cream on the day I have washed my hair, it does make my hair feel dirtier sooner, but that could be me using too much product as a little seems to go a long way; about third day is perfect for me. I didn’t look at the price of this product before I used it, but honestly, the cost is worth it. It actually works and my hair feels as if it is being repaired, not just masking my frizzed ends. It is paraben and silicone free also, and packed with good natural ingredients to replenish the condition of my hair. I use this 3-4 times a week and the condition of my hair has really improved – I couldn’t be happier. I now want to try other products from Phyto. Bling Factor: Pro: Easy to use, smells great Con: None Price: $38 Buy Again: Yes Packaging: 5 Blings Overall: 5 Blings Hero Ingredient: Macadamia Oil, hydrates and softens hair.
