My TOP picks for Best in Beauty from Cosmoprof 2021

Posted on by mxmissy

When it comes to the latest releases in the Beauty industry, you can bet that I’ll be there to check it out! I had the privilege of attending Cosmoprof North America 2021 in Las Vegas earlier this month. I know, my job sucks 😉

Cosmoprof North America (CPNA) is the leading B2B beauty exhibition in the Americas. CPNA serves as the premier launching pad for new beauty brands, introducing revolutionary technologies, product innovations, and new channels for distribution, packaging, and manufacturing.

My first stop was in the Discover Beauty section where I was blown away by the new innovations from Meloway Makeup. Not only did they WOW me with their first-of-its-kind bendable mascara wand, (Pro makeup artists have been bending & breaking wands for years!) but they also just released their 2-in-1 Liquid Eyeliner + Makeup Remover Pen. With this powerhouse product in your kit you can be sure to get that perfect winged liner in no time, and did I mention, it’s waterproof? YESSS!!

Both products are just $22 and can be found at MelowayMakeup.com

My next stop was over at KOVO Essentials where I learned all about the cutting edge formula in their ultimate pick-me-up Award-winning all day toner mist. Check out these key ingredients:

  • Probiotics — Anti-bacterial/Anti-inflammatory
  • Peptides — Skin Protein
  • Green Tea — Tones Skin
  • Rose Water — Calms Irritation
  • DMAE — Improves Elasticity
  • Cannabidiol — Relieves Redness
  • Coconut Water — Hydrating
  • Witch Hazel — Repairs Skin
  • Aloe Juice — Calms Inflammation

Grab yours @ KOVOessentials.com

I didn’t forget my guys and made sure to make a stop over at Reuzel where they have everything a man needs to look like a gentleman. Skincare, Beard care, Hair care, they’ve got it all and the best part? It’s all under $20! You’re welcome.

Want a good hair day…. every day? Well, thanks to my friends at EVA NYC not only can you get top styling products and tools, but you can help save the planet! That’s right, their products are made of 100% recyclable aluminum.

Simplify your styling routine with one miracle potion. Their Mane Magic 10-in-1 Primer offers is a multi-tasking formula that gives hair its daily dose of vitamins and nutrients, with 10 benefits in one bottle.

  1. Strengthens*
  2. Heat Protection*
  3. Reduces Frizz 
  4. Detangles
  5. Softens 
  6. Cuts Drying Time*
  7. Adds Shine 
  8. Nourishes 
  9. Smooths 
  10. UV Protection*

Did I mention it also smells incredible? Grab yours @ Eva-NYC.com

I couldn’t end my trip at Cosmoprof without stopping by London Based Hairbrush Comapny, Rock & Ruddle.

They have the BEST hairbrushes ever! Why choose a natural bristle hairbrush? Natural bristles have microscopic scales that release and spread the natural oil produced in the scalp (sebum) down each hair shaft making it shiny, supple and healthy. A Rock & Ruddle hairbrush both cares for your hair and feels comfortable to use plus they have so many unique designs to choose from.

Check them out @ RockandRuddle.com

Thanks for coming along with me at Cosmoprof 2021! See you next year!

Sleigh Full of Beauty

Holiday Shopping for the Beauty Lover in your life? I’ve got you covered! From skincare, makeup, and luscious locks. These products are sure to bring joy to everyone on your list.

My first gift is from Bl’eau. This unique Canadian skincare line sources their clay from the ancient glaciers of British Columbia, which is enriched by the cyclical flow of ocean and glaciers, and it is loaded with over 60 unique minerals and rare elements. It’s naturally powerful properties  help to detoxify, rehydrate, refine your pores and yes, moisturize skin. All of their clay masks are made from Canadian glacial oceanic clay, including their signature product, Glacial Oceanic Clay Mask.

This mask is nothing like the other clay masks I’ve used.  This one doesn’t get tight, dry or irritating.  Instead it soothes, refreshes, and hydrates my skin, leaving it soft and glowing. They’ve also included Glacial Mineral Water in their Hydrate Collection which features their Glacial Mineral Toner, Hydrating Glacial Moisturizing Emulsion, and their Hydrating Glacial Moisturizing Cream.  This collection ranges from $19-59$ and can be found at BleauBeauty.com

Next up is my gift of Makeup from Macy’s!  With deals all month long, you can snag some of my favorite brands like NARS, Nudestix, Stila and more!  This new eyeshadow palette from NARS called After Glow is the perfect gift for all skin tones.  Also the Magnetic Nude Glimmers from Nudestix are incredible! They can be used as a  luminous skin brightener and highlighter for eyes, cheeks and lips that sets for all day waterproof wear.  For more amazing makeup products, Check out Macys.com

Now for the gift of beautiful hair!  Founded by hair icon, Guy Tang, this styling line was created to enhance and prolong all hair color. Previously only available to the professional, this line is now available on Ulta.com for consumers to purchase for the first time! Everything you need to re-create Guy Tang’s iconic looks seen across all your social media platforms. Prices range from $22.50-$32.00 The #mydentity Styling Product Line includes #MyConfidant Shampoo and Conditioner, #MyControl Spray and two finishing products, an oil and a shine spray.

As a professional makeup artist and hairstylist, When I’m on set I HAVE to make sure my clients’ hair holds it’s style while looking shiny and fabulous.  This #MyControl Medium Sculpting Spray is NOT your regular hairspray!  It doesn’t feel sticky, wet, or hard, This super fine mist spray creates a touchable moveable hold you’ll love. 

I use this to hold my daughters bouncy blonde curls.  I have really dark hair, and I love that this spray doesn’t have a white cast that mutes the vibrancy of the hair, but instead it adds shine and makes hair look super healthy. Head over to Ulta.com to pick up your Guy Tang #mydentity Styling  Line.

Now to effortlessly create beachy waves, perfectly defined spiral curls, full-bodied glamour waves, and everything in between look no further than T3 Micro  with advanced heat styling tech, exceptional results, and—always—beautiful, healthy hair.

From next gen hairdryers that provide quick dry times and smooth locks, to styling tools that are sure to give you a great hair day, every day. My favorite in their collection right now is their Interchangeable sets. This curling wand trio features everything you need to change your look in a snap: the T3 Convertible Base—the foundation of the T3 Convertible Collection—and three interchangeable straight and tapered ceramic wands. One base, three barrels, endless styling possibilities.

I love styling my daughters hair with the 1″ straight wand barrel.  It gives her the bouncy curls she loves, and I love that it doesn’t damage her hair. My go to signature look is soft, loose waves and with the larger 1 ½” Straight Wand Barrell, it’s easier than ever to swap out the barrels.  I also love the convenience of having multiple styling tools with only ONE base!  Saves so much space, and is another favorite thing of mine when working on set.  
T3 has specials running all month long, so don’t miss out on the savings….head over to T3micro.com to purchase your faves!

Happy Holidays!

At-Home Spa Treatments

Posted on by mxmissy

One of my favorite things to do is take an evening for myself and pamper my skin. I LOVE facial masks and I use them at least twice a week. When I discovered there was a NEW Microcurrent Technology Mask that absorbs 6 times deeper into the skin, I HAD to have it!

Franz Skincare is the first to offer this Microcurrent Technology in their dual mask systems. They harness the power of the ocean by utilizing water to create tiny, waves across the skin, allowing the nourishing ingredients to be absorbed way more efficiently than masks of the past!

Franz Thomas developed the Franz Diffusion Cell method. This technique tests skin’s permeability of key ingredients. The more efficiently nutrients reach your skin, the more effective your treatments are.

Ranging from $40-$100 these masks are available online at FranzSkincareUSA.com

But if you’re lucky enough to be reading this BEFORE November 15th, I have a discount code for you to score 30% OFF your online purchase! Use Code: FALL30 and stock up on your favorites! (also these are great gift ideas for the Holidays)

FranzSkincareUSA.com

Now, let’s talk dry skin. UGH! This time of year has my feet and hands cracking and in desperate need of hydration, which is why my next product is a must-have for anyone suffering the same issues: Miss Spa’s Exfoliating Foot Treatment and Deep Therapy Hand Treatment are a game changer!

You can completely transform your skin with these little booties and gloves. Enriched with flower oils, the deep therapy hand treatment nourishes the hands and even softens your cuticles! The peppermint and glycolic acid foot treatment sloughs off any dead skin on your feet, and reveals fresh, soft skin. (No more rough skin snagging on the sheets!)

These beauty treatments start at just $6, so you can grab a bunch and make sure your skin stays hydrated throughout the winter months! Miss Spa is sold at most major retailers, but you can also pick them up online at Miss-Spa.com

Now, go take some time to pamper yourself before the hustle and bustle of the Holidays! After all, you deserve it! 😉

Beauty Essentials Under $35

Segment Featured on CBS Affiliate – Fresh Living

I love it when I find beauty products that actually work and don’t break the bank! These are some must-have essentials:

Olay Regenerist Retinol24 MAX Night Collection. This powerhouse formula offers 20% more of Olay’s Retinol 24 Complex and delivers beautiful results! I have been using the Night Moisturizer in this collection for about one month and I can visibly see my skin is smoother in texture, and brighter in tone.

Olay’s proprietary combination of Vitamin B3, plus Olay’s most transformative Retinoid Complex, including Retinol and Retinyl Propionate, make this collection a must-have for anyone looking to improve their skin quality.

Each product is under $35 and can be purchased at Olay.com or at your local retailer.

Next, I just had to share my love for The Wet Brush! For years I have been using their Original Detangler Brush and have loved the results. Did you know most damage occurs to the hair when it’s wet? Stop using the wrong brush and breaking your hair! With a wide variety of brushes you can definitely find the solution for your hair. I LOVE using the Shower Brush Detangler. Yes, you use it in the shower. It really helps keep the hair smooth and free from those dreaded tangles!

Also included in their line is their Speed Dry brushes. These help aid in drying your hair and help circulate the air from your blow dryer, so you can “Speed” up your dry time.

I highly recommend these brushes! I have loved using these on my both my daughters, and I even have the mini detangler brush in my purse for those brushing touch-ups!

You can grab your perfect Wet Brush at SalonCentric.com or at most major retailers.

Lastly, don’t forget to grab a pack of dual-tipped cotton applicators too! These little guys are perfect for everyday beauty uses. I use them to correct makeup mistakes, apply creams, touch-up lipstick, fix nail polish, and so much more! At under $5 these are a must to keep handy on your vanity.
