Jeni's Beauty Favorites
of December
What?! No weird new bands or concert going tips? Blasphemy!!
Mint Julep Mud Masque by Queen Helene
About $5 at CVS
Black heads? Check. Clogged up pores? Check. Grand canyon sized pores? Check. This stuff is the bomb diggity when it comes to ultra deep pore cleansing. I use this about once a week for a good spa treatment for my nasty pores (you can drive a hummer into my pores, they're HUGE.) The best part is it's bright green and gives you the perfect opportunity to run around the house scaring the dogs :)
This is actually VERY affordable and it's the only mud mask I swear by. Get it.
Chance Eau Fraiche by Chanel
Fragrance
About $70 at Sephora
This perfume is downright heavenly. I would describe it as clean and fresh (vague, sorry) with floral undertones, totally and completely different from the famous Chanel No. 5.
Yes, it's on the pricey side but so very worth it for date nights.
44 Iron Guard Thermal Protection Spray by CHI
$13.88 at Wal-Mart
If I were to take "Jeni's 10 Beauty Commandments" Thou shalt always wear heat protector when using heated hair tools would be commandment numero dos (right behind Thou shalt always wear sunscreen.) Yes, a tad pricey but this product is king when it comes to keeping your luscious locks from frying in that flat iron. Heat protector sprays seal important moisture into your hair that is otherwise robbed when its super heated which can cause scorching and breakage.
Equate Eye Makeup Remover
$3ish at Wal-Mart
Cheaper off brand for the win!! I've seen some mixed reviews about this product but for me it works wonderfully. I've used eye makeup removers that leave me with blurry vision and/or continually flakey leftover mascara and. that. sucks. This is easy to apply and it does a great job of GENTLY getting rid of my eye makeup. I strive to use very gentle and non abrasive products around my eyes so I don't cause damage to the sensitive skin in that area. We want to keep our eyes bright and unbaggy right?? Right!
Glycolic Herbal Wash by Rhonda Allison
$32 on Amazon.com or from my facialist :)
Ok. Wild Card alert. This product is (mostly) available only on Amazon.com and through independent licensed estheticians. I've had so many issues with my skin from ginormous pores to premature sun damage (darn you fair skin!!) that I have recently begun seeing a facialist every other month for microdermabraision and chemical peel. It's really not at all as bad as it sounds and yes, it makes a difference. I received this little gem from my facialist at the De Leon Spa in Paris, Tx, Angie Doroba-Martin, and I'm hooked. Proactive ain't got $#%^ on this stuff. I actually find myself looking forward to washing my face at night! It leaves my nasty oily skin feeling squeaky clean and clear all day long. Again, it's a little pricey but worth the splurge.
Brilliantine Shine Glossing Spray by Garnier Fructis
$3.33 at Wal-Mart
This product is simple. Spray it on your ends (and JUST your ends or you will have greasy gravy hair within an hour) for glossy shiney goldilocks. I usually do 2 spritzes on my ends after styling and hairspray just for a little extra helping of that coveted "glowing" shine.______________________
