On Target - Daily Makeover

So my buds over at DailyMakeover.com have hooked me up with a premium account. It's taken me a few weeks but I've finally started playing with it a bit. I'm at DM novice so it may take some time (and better quality self-portraits!) so here's a few looks I played around with on myself and a friend.

Tips and Trends – Thanksgiving Thoughts

With Thanksgiving tomorrow I decided I’d suggest some seasonal faves. I tried to find stuffing scented shampoo but turned up empty handed. So instead, fill your cornucopia with the enriching products stuffed with pumpkin, apple cider, cinnamon, and cranberry.

Down By the Pumpkin Patch

Mm, pumpkin pie. A fall standard and Thanksgiving must have, pumpkins are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals like zinc and magnesium. When you aren’t shoving it in your mouth, rub a little on your face!

Try out Doll Face’s Lolita Restore and Heal Peel with Pumpkin and Honey. Chock full of revitalizing organic pumpkin, with the added benefit of carrot, honey, green tea and cucumber, this peel infuses skin with vitamin A to limit environmental damage to skin. Smell yummy, and look younger, sounds like the perfect combination.

Apples to Apples

Apple cider vinegar is one of hair care’s most popular ingredients, cleanly purifying hair of buildup. Master hair guru Frederic Fekkai created an entire line dedicated to the powers of apple cider vinegar featuring a shampoo, conditioner, and rinse.

I suggest the Frederic Fekkai Apple Cider Clearing rinse, a weekly method of rejuvenating strands and saving hair and scalp from product buildup and styling damage. Added benefit from sage, rosemary, silk and oat proteins, and antioxidant vitamins A and E, and a host of other good-for-you ingredients to promote cleanliness and health of hair.

Cinnamon Stick

Cinnamon is known for having a plethora of uses. From spicing up food to controlling blood sugar, cinnamon is certainly one handy seasoning. You can even use it to improve your skin with Kiehl’s Blue Herbal Moisturizer.

Based off Kiehl’s legendary Blue Herbal Astringent formula, this handy little moisturizer packs a wallop of cinnamon bark along with ginger root to balance and clarify skin’s overall appearance. Contains salicylic acid for acne control and is perfect for oily skin types who usually avoid moisturizing.

Cranberry Saucy

Perhaps the only time of year cranberry gets some credit. Containing vitamins A, C, K and a host of other minerals and antioxidants, cranberry is a near perfect fruit. Get yourself looking even closer to perfect, by rubbing a little cranberry onto your skin using the Doll Face Foxy Lady Fight or Flight Mask with Cranberry and Green Tea.

Full of cranberry goodness along with green tea, honey, tapioca, cucumber, and orange peel, this mask is seriously tasty. The Fight or Flight Mask revitalizes skin cells imparting a youthful glow to tired skin. So serve yourself up a Thanksgiving leftovers sandwich, and apply a little cranberry to your face and relax, it’s a long weekend.
