Rescue Thinning Hair & Look Your Best!

Clinicure by JoicoWith Valentine’s Day around the corner, it’s important to clean up your look for the lovely lady (or handsome man!) in your life. For many, this includes dealing with the frustrations of thinning hair or receding hairlines.  At Beauty of a Site, we’ve seen incredible results with one of our newest products- Clinicure, by Joico.

This revolutionary line of products for thinning hair uses a completely botanical formula that combines proven natural ingredients along with cutting edge science.  Resulting in an extremely effective product (without harmful chemicals) Clinicure promises to help produce thicker hair- at different stages of hair loss!

Part of the effectiveness of Clinicure’s formula is its attention to individual needs, and the realization that at every stage of hair loss, different formulas are necessary.  Thus, Clinicure offers products for early stages of hair loss as well as advanced stages.  Have chemically processed hair?  Clinicure also divides its formulas up into natural hair & chemical processed hair, to make sure that the ingredients create the optimum hair growth in your individual hair situation.

The easiest way to enjoy the immediate results of Clinicure is to try one of their four starter kits, which include all three products to nurture and strengthen your hair.  Choose either natural or chemically processed hair, and then whether your hair is in the early or later stages of thinning.  Use your starter kit daily and watch for incredible results!

OPI Hong Kong Collection (Promo Pics!)

Introducing OPI’s newest collection for 2010: the Hong Kong Collection.  This huge variety of bright colors ushers in a new season.  Full of life, possibility and energy, the Hong Kong collection is brimming with excitement!  Here are shots of the collection:

OPI Hong Kong Collection

OPI Hong Kong Collection

Attempting to capture the vitality of the colorful culture of Hong Kong, this collection combines incredibly bright cremes with pearly pastels, frosty mauves and even glistening neutrals.  Part of the artistry of these new polishes is the way they set each other off- which we think is quite beautifully!  With such a variety to choose from, there truly is something for everyone in OPI’s newest collection.

Our picks for the season:

1.  Jade is the New Black:  By far the truest jade we’ve seen from OPI, this gorgeous green is a refreshing choice.  As sophisticated as Here Today from the Spain collection, Jade features a distinctly blue undertone with a subtly muted but classically green finish.

2. Meet Me on the Star Ferry:  Incredible!  Like some of our fellow bloggers, we weren’t too optimistic about this seemingly boring and old-fashioned mauve.  But the pictures simply don’t do it justice!  This extremely rich purple / brown shade features a subtle multi-shimmer that makes it one of the most unique colors of the entire collection.  It’s deep base with hints of plum really set it apart as the perfect color for Spring!

3.  Suzi Says Feng Shui:  OPI continues their two year streak of popular blues with the release of Suzie Says Feng Shui.  This cobalt blue with dusty undertones is a lovely cream, bold without being neon and perfectly blue without any teal.  Perfect!

CLICK HERE TO PRE-ORDER THESE SHADES! We’ll start shipping out orders this week!  Try out these incredible colors and let us know what you think!

Where InStyle Loves Us!

InStyle just gushed about the best beauty buys that they found in 2009, and we’re excited to find that we offer many of them!  Each year, InStyle helps readers sift through the best of what’s on the market, and helps us all to choose the best products for the money to get affordable and worthwhile results.

In 2009, InStyle loved Essie.  Essie Mademoiselle won InStyle’s award for best neutral.  A celebrity nail pro is quoted as saying that of the “300 polish shades in my kit, … this is the one I use 60 percent of the time.”  Essie’s orange-y red Geranium stole the award for the best coral with its “sassy and sophisticated” style.

In 2009, InStyle couldn’t get enough of the Beauty Blender.  This unique cosmetics applicator takes blending to a professional level, and won the category for best foundation applicator of the year.  We love it.

In 2009, InStyle gushed over Freeze 24/7’s Freeze & Go compact as the best line filler they saw all year.  Calling this amazing little products a  “needle-free alternative to Botox,” InStyle loved how this hot product offered instant gratification.

Principessa’s Royal Makeover- New Sugar Scrub!

Principessa Delizia Mia Creamy Sugar PolishPrincipessa’s beloved Delizia Mia Sugar Polish has received a makeover of royal proportions. Now in a luxurious, thick format, Delizia Mia is now a Creamy Sugar Polish. While the original sugar polish featured the normal oil / scrub mixture, the improved Principessa formula scrubs and exfoliates like always, but in a creamy, lotion like format. Packaged with beneficial organic extracts and nourishing shea butter, the Delizia Mia Sugar Polish leaves your skin silky smooth- with no oily residue!

Both Principessa’s original and new sugar polishes are simple to use and give great results.  Simply massage on wet skin until your skin feels silky and quenched and you’ve successfully smoothed and exfoliated.  Be careful not to use on skin that’s irritated- the sugar polishes are best for use on freshly washed, clear skin.

Are you a huge fan of the old scrub? We do have some left, so grab them now- click here to purchase one! If you’re ready to check out Principessa’s new and improved scrub, click here!

Resolve to be Healthy with Acai Berry

Acai Berries

In honor of the New Year, we’re all working to be more healthy. Here at BOAS, we’re using Acai Berry to help us do it!

This tiny red fruit (that this time last year none of us had ever heard of) has emerged as one of the most popular superfoods of the new year. Diet websites and nutrition gurus claim that the powerful antioxidant properties of the acai berry make it a superfood and an optimal ingredient in the weight loss process.

Scientists & nutritionists agree that acai berries are packed full of essential nutrients that help our bodies to function more efficiently. Though popping an acai berry supplement doesn’t make you lose 5 pounds overnight, perpetual intake of superfoods like the acai berry improve the way your body works, making digesting food, getting proper sleep and exercising all much easier tasks. We don’t know about you- but we’ll take all the help we can get!

With our busy lives, having a bag of acai berries in our pocket isn’t always the easiest way to access this superfood. Lucky, Pure Inventions has created a drink additive that can be added to water to help you get your daily dose of Acai Berry! Simply add it to water of any temperature for a shot of antioxidant power!  Click here to check out this awesome drink!

Introducing Tosca Styling & Care!

Tosca Haircare
Tosca Style
care and styling products feature some of the most effective botanical formulas that we’ve ever seen- and we’re excited to announce that we now carry this entire hair care line!

We have to admit that part of the reason we started carrying Tosca products is because WE couldn’t get enough!  We sampled the products last year and we saw such great results, that we started to carry the whole line before we ran out of our sample products!  That is the sort of response we’ve seen from our customers so far- these products and their excellent results really speak for themselves.

Each Tosca product uses 100% certified botanical extracts and avoids any sulfates or sodium chlorides that often damage your hair over time.  Each formula also guards against static and humidity to keep your silky smooth style tame all day.  Tosca offers products specifically designed for curly hair, damaged hair, dull hair, fine hair and a classic formula for all hair types.

My Own Shade of Red- And Yours Too!

DuWop Private Red LipstickPrivate red- what every woman wants!

My pet peeve: standing in the drug store guessing what shade of lipstick will look best on me.  You can rub it on your hand, look at it under different lights, but four tubes of lipstick (and many dollars) later, you’re still without a great shade of red lipstick.

Our staff loves DuWop makeup because they have a solution for everything!  DuWop’s Private Red Lipstick is a classic shade of red, which after applied, adapts to each woman’s individual skin tone.  The perfect red, the very first time!
