Goddess Glow: My Tanning Routine

Get the Goddess Glow

 NAKED TAN REVIEW by Lauren Day 

To achieve a goddess glow I use Naked Tan products. They are cruelty-free and best of all the products are made in Australia. I love the delicious vanilla and coconut scent. Because I have a very high risk of skin cancer I prefer to use a safe, natural sunless tan rather than getting a tan from the sun. I try to limit my sun exposure between 10 am and 3pm every day. 

My Step by Step Tanning Routine 

1. Apply Naked Tan Goddess Crème de la Crème to my hands, elbows, knees and ankles. 

2. I shake the bottle well and then apply 3 pumps of Goddess Bronzing Mousse into the palm of my hand. I then apply the mouse to my body, and keep re-pumping mousse into my hand when I need more. 

3. I rinse my hands well and then apply Goddess Self Tan to my face, neck and the backs of my hands. 

4. I wash my hands thoroughly to remove excess tan. Then I turn on my Stefan hairdryer and switched on the cool shot.  I use it to dry my skin for approximately 2 minutes, to avoid that after tan "sticky feeling". 

5. After application I relax for 2 hours while my #NakedTan to develops into a gorgeous bronze colour. Then I rinse off the tan in the shower and pat dry my skin with a soft bath towel. (If desired leave on overnight for a deeper colour). 

As Naked Tan is a true 2 hour tan they recommend leaving the Goddess Bronzing Mousse on for just 2 hours (do not exceed 4 hours).

FOUNDATION REVIEW: glō minerals

Luxe Liquid Foundation 

glō minerals REVIEW by Lauren Day 

Finding the perfect foundation for your complexion can be a challenge! Am I right ladies? Especially if you're a Makeup Artist like myself. You've probably tried a lot of different brands. It's all about the consistency, coverage and colour. 

In 2015 my absolute favourite luxury foundation is the new Luxe Liquid Foundation by glō minerals. I highly recommend this beautiful velvety soft foundation as it contains broad spectrum SPF 15 and anti-ageing properties. It's excellent for mature women in their 30's, 40's and 50's. 

Application directions: 

1. Shake well before each use. 
2. Using a foundation brush or your fingers, apply Luxe Foundation to the face, blending lightly down the neck. 

www.glo-minerals.com

I have naturally fair skin. My shade is Naturelle. The glass bottle is 30ml. (1 fl. oz.) This foundation's pump is convenient and easy to apply. I prefer applying foundation with a makeup sponge for full coverage. If you prefer using a brush to apply foundation, try glō minerals Ultra Brush. 

When I go makeup shopping, either online or at my local chemist or department store, I always look for good quality foundation. I believe it's definitely one of the key steps to achieving a flawless finish. Luxe Liquid Foundation is very luxurious and long lasting. The 

glō minerals recommends! 

• Apply foundation liberally 15  minutes before sun exposure
• Use a water resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating
• Reapply at least every 2 hours

"glō minerals provides coverage that lasts while being kind to the skin."  

I simply adore glō minerals Camouflage Under - Eye Concealer. My shade is beige. For best results, apply with a synthetic or cruelty-free brush. It's excellent for concealing dark circles under the eyes prior to applying glō minerals Luxe Liquid Foundation.

REVIEW: InStyler Rotating Iron

InStyler Review by Lauren Day 

I reviewed the first InStyler {Classic Silver} that I bought on August 10th 2012. Unfortunately my silver in styler is dead.. This hairstyling device doesn't last long. (rest in peace!)

In 2014 I purchased a brand new InStyler, the new purple colour… And I love it. It's much better than the original InStyler I bought back in 2012. So I decided to put together a new review of the InStyler Rotating Iron. 

I use my InStyler everyday (when I wear my hair straight - it's naturally curly) to create smooth, straight luscious hair. The purple InStyler is so quick and easy to use and it creates so much body and bounce to my hair! I absolutely love the InStyler! 

Included with your InStyler:

• 3-in-1 Styling Comb 
• Heat Resistant Carry Bag
• Thermal Shield Training Guard
• Quick Start GuideHeat Settings: 

InStyler has 3 Heat Settings: 

1. High 
2. Medium 
3. Low 
4. OFF 

Benefits of using the InStyler: 

• Adds volume and shine
• Straightens and curls
• Styles in half the time (compared to a regular hair straightener)
• Quick and easy to use

NEW HAIR COLOUR: Raspberry Pink

NEW HAIR COLOUR! 

Raspberry Pink

It's no secret that I love pink! ...And with the pastel coloured hair trend in full swing with celebrities like Jennifer Hawkins, Nicole Richie, and even Katy Perry adopting pink, blue, purple and even green hair, I decided to add some colour to my hair. You only live once, so why not! 

This isn't the first time I've had pink hair. You may remember back in 2011 I had hot pink streaks in my hair for a few months. This time I decided that I wanted a magenta purple and my hairdresser suggested we add some pink as well to create a subtle multicoloured look. 

My amazing hairdresser Alex from Capri Hair added a few pink and magenta highlights to my hair. She used Fudge Paintbox colours in Pink Moon (light neon pink) and Raspberry Beret (magenta purple). The result is a vibrant Raspberry Pink look, that I absolutely love! 

Please Note: On the Fudge website Raspberry Beret appears as a true purple, but trust me it's more like a magenta colour! 

For this look I am wearing my new favourite lipstick combo Calypso Cool featuring Napoleon Perdis lipstick and NYX lip gloss.

I always line my lips with a lip liner before I apply lipstick. It's really important especially if you're wearing a dark or vibrant colour. It keeps your lipstick in place - trust me, don't skip this step girls! 

Essence have great lipliner because they are really creamy and they're so cheap! Cute Pink is one of my favourites and it's perfect for this look. 

I purchase my Essence products from Target Australia. Essence is cruelty free. 

lipstick Napoleon Perdis DeVine Goddess Lipstick Calypso

I think I have a lipstick obsession. Ok rephrase that; I know I have a lipstick obsession. When it comes to lipstick my advice is to always invest in a good quality lipstick. With lipliners and lip glosses I choose cheaper (cruelty-free of course) brands but when it comes to Lipstick it's all about luxury. The reason is, that lipstick will last a lot longer than a lip gloss, so it's wise to buy the right one! My favourite luxury lipstick is Devine Goddess Lipstick by Napoleon Perdis. I bought this shade Calypso lipstick back in April and featured it in last makeup haul, and it's one of my new faves! 

So why do I love this lipstick… Well it's simple. It's just divine! Just as the name suggests, Napoleon's DeVine Goddess Lipstick actually lives up to it's name. I have a few shades now, but Calypso it's one of the best for it's amazing colour pigment and gorgeous fuchsia pink. 

I purchase my Napoleon Perdis products from a NP Concert Store with my NP rewards card or from Myer with my Myer One card.  Napoleon Perdis is cruelty-free. 

lip gloss NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss Dolly Pink LG136

When it comes to finding the perfect lip gloss, NYX Mega Shine is an absolute WINNER! 
Dolly Pink it's a vibrant, glossy 'Barbie' pink and it's super glossy and glistens in the sunshine. If you're a true girly girl you will adore this shade. I also wear this colour just with the cute pink lipliner as a pretty day look. 

NYX is now available at selected Target stores in Australia. However I purchase my NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss from MakeupGeek.com (US$5.79) and BeautyJoint.com (US$5).

MUSIC: Colbie Caillat TRY

SONG: "Try" by Colbie Caillat 

After taking a break for a few years to write and record her new album Colbie Caillat is back with a brand new single! An inspiring new positive feel-good song about being yourself. She hopes it will inspire women to focus on their inner beauty. 

"I still love getting all dolled up. And then most of my days I love walking around with no makeup, my hair dried straight from the shower, in workout clothes or pyjamas." - Colbie Caillat

In the powerful new music video Colbie is featured along with other women revealing their beautified, photoshoped faces and then as the video progresses their bare no-makeup faces. 

"We shot the video in reverse, we started bare, and by the end we finished with the full hair and makeup, and then reversed the film for the finished product. All of the women were amazing. When I shot the first scene with no hair and makeup on in front of an HD camera in my face, flashed with bright lights, everyone was watching. I thought, “Oh my god, I bet they’re all looking at my blemishes, thinking that I should cover them up, or that I should put some volume in my hair." But it also felt really cool to be on camera with zero on, like literally nothing on." 

"Try" is featured on Colbie's brand new EP Gypsy Heart, available now on iTunes. 

 "I don’t have Photoshop on my album cover. At the video shoots, I’m doing less hair and makeup."

COLBIE CAILLAT  |  TRY 

Take your makeup off, 
Let your hair down, 
Take a breath, 
Look into the mirror at yourself,  
Don't you like you? 
Coz I like you.
