Where Nature & Science Meet Skincare, Haircare, Beauty & Wellness

The Decadent Multi-Tasker: Wild Beaute Coconut Tangerine Melt

April 10, 2018 · 9 Comments

We live in a day and age that a 13-step skincare process is not uncommon. But what if you could skip the other 12 products and just used one decadent product for multiple beauty needs?

Well now you can, with the incredibly luxurious Wild Beaute Coconut Tangerine Melt. Wild Beauté Coconut Tangerine Melt is made of only two ingredients: Organic Cold-pressed Coconut Oil, and Organic Cold pressed Tangerine Essential Oil. The two ingredients work in tandem to provide the skin with intense hydration. And the scent is absolutely amazing: I’ve been wearing it as my fragrance lately instead of perfume!

TIP: To add a little bit more decadence, use a small silver spoon to measure out the amount you want to use. I use a beautiful vintage spoon, and it looks gorgeous next to the jar on my vanity table!

 

FACE

You probably don’t need me to extol the virtues of Coconut Oil, but it’s worth spending a bit of time on since this is an especially high-grade, well crafted Coconut Oil. Cold-Pressed Coconut Oil maintains more of the beneficial aspects and is a truer form of the oil. In traditionally pressed Coconut Oil, a lot of what makes Coconut Oil helpful is “cooked off” since heat is used. So when looking for Coconut Oil, always look for a Cold-Pressed one like Wild Beaute Coconut Tangerine Melt.

Tangerine Oil has antifungal and antiseptic properties, which makes it ideal for skincare, especially as a gentle treatment for acne. It also helps to heal skin – great for dabbing on acne scars!

Everyday: I love using a thin layer of Wild Beauté Coconut Tangerine Melt under my sunscreen on days I know I’ll be in dry conditions, like forced heat in an office. My skin doesn’t get oily but remains dewy all day. It is also a fantastic lip primer. I haven’t had completely smooth lips since I was four, but Wild Beaute  Coconut Tangerine Melt makes my lips smooth and ready for lipstick!

Intense Moisture Mask: As a soothing Sunday Night treat, I take a generous amount of Coconut Tangerine Melt, melt it slightly between my fingers, and smooth it over my face. Then I place a hot washcloth over my face, put on some relaxing music, and rest for twenty minutes. It smells amazing, and when my twenty minutes is up, I gently massage my skin to allow every last drop of moisture to absorb. My skin is so smooth and glowing, and it stays incredibly soft! Putting on makeup on Monday morning is so much easier since I have soft, plump skin to work with. And I don’t limit it to just Sundays, I use it as a moisture mask anytime my skin needs a shot of extra moisturizer!

HAIR

Ah, using Wild Beaute Coconut Tangerine Melt on hair. Your hair will thank you for this. Once a week, I like to melt some and use it as a hot oil treatment, and then wrap my hair in a hot towel. I leave it in for about an hour and then rinse it out. The result? My hair is amazingly shiny and soooooo soft! I also do mid-week treatments on my ends to keep them healthy.

It is also fantastic for second-day hair. I take a small amount and emulsify it between my hands, and then scrunch it into my hair and massage my scalp with it. My hair looks bouncy, shiny, and smells fantastic. It works the same if you want straight hair, just use a light hand.

BODY

Want the most decadent shave you’ve ever gotten? Use Wild Beaute Coconut Tangerine Melt as a shave cream. Apply it to your legs before you get in the shower, and let it set in the steam for a few minutes before you shave. Not only will you get the smoothest shave of your life, but your shower will smell amazing!

I also love using it as a post-shower moisturizer. It gives my arms a healthy glow and makes them so soft. I especially love it on elbows, knuckles, and the bane of my beauty existence, my cuticles. It moisturizes my cuticles and keeps hangnails from forming.

MAKEUP

Makeup is fun. Taking off makeup at the end of a long day is not fun. But using Wild Beauté Coconut Tangerine Melt to take off your makeup at the end of the day is a luxurious experience that you will look forward to. No more falling asleep in your makeup!

Just take a bit, rub it between your fingers, and spread it over your face. It will gently remove your makeup, even waterproof mascara. Gently wipe your face with a soft towel, and your face will be clean and moisturized at the same time!

A little makeup hack I love: if your skin is looking a little dull during the day, pat a tiny bit of Coconut Tangerine Melt onto your cheekbones, brow bone, or anywhere else that could use a little glow. Instant highlighter!

Something else we love about Wild Beauté products: they are made by a small company of four women. This means they know exactly what constitutes a great beauty product, because they are making the products that they need and use themselves! I love women-owned companies who just want to help other women! And as the icing on the cake, Wild Beauté supports Wildlife conservation and protection and works with global organizations to protect animals worldwide. And they are cruelty-free!

Sponsored Post: Beauty Wellness with the Eucerin “Prepare to Repair” Video Series

February 22, 2018 · 34 Comments

Here at Style Chicks, we love the concept of Beauty Wellness: the things you do for your wellbeing that have an added beauty benefit, whether it is better posture, better sleep, or simply doing something that puts a glowing smile on your face. There is also no denying that we are huge skincare enthusiasts here, and we know you are too. The folks at Eucerin have combined Skincare and Beauty Wellness into a fantastic video series called “Prepare to Repair!

The Eucerin “Prepare to Repair” video series has simple, effective tips from board-certified dermatologist Dr. Debra Jaliman to help repair skin’s moisture and from Fitness Instructor Kirsten Trued to help repair muscles. These tips will help optimize your total wellness efforts! In this series, Kirsten teaches a series of exercises that use a small ball for gentle firm pressure, emulating a known therapeutic sports massage technique.

HANDS AND FOREARMS

Our hands endure plenty of wear and tear during the day, ranging from using computer technology gear to washing dishes. The repetitive motion can be grueling to the tendons and muscles of the hand, which makes regular, gentle stretches so beneficial.

Fitness Instructor Kirsten Trued recommends two effective stretches to ease achiness and repair both hands and forearms, while moisturizing skin.

ECZEMA CAUSES

Winter wreaks skin havoc, causing dryness and redness, including Eczema flare-ups. To help pre-empt a flare-up, Eucerin Eczema Relief Body Creme contains colloidal oatmeal that soothes while Ceramide-3 acts a barrier to lock in moisture. I especially like to use this in dry environments such as those with indoor forced air heat, like my office building.

POST WORKOUT ECZEMA RELIEF

Sweating during a workout can provoke eczema breakouts, which means regular workouts can begin a vicious cycle. Eucerin Eczema Relief Flare-Up Treatment Creme is intended for use during an active flare-up. It contains Licochalcone A, a licorice extract which is clinically proven to significantly improve the skin’s appearance during flare-up phases.

The rich-feeling creme is fragrance-, steroid- and dye-free.

BACK AND CHEST

Keeping the muscles in your back, chest, and neck strong and toned is vital for proper posture. Good posture makes you look slimmer and taller, and feel younger and healthier. Have you noticed how people round their shoulders and extendedly bend their necks forward while using their phone, tablets, and laptops? These simple exercises not only will help undo some of the stress we put our neck each day but impart a smoother, more elegant neckline and collarbone.

I’ve been remiss over the years about upper body skin care. While I carefully slather my face and throat with skincare topicals and sunscreen, I’ve been haphazard with my shoulders, decolletage, and upper arms. But these areas all belie age with sun damage, dryness, lack of firmness and wrinkles.

What can be done to compensate for upper body skin neglect? Two Eucerin products that help reverse time are Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion and Eucerin Advanced Repair Lotion.

AHA TO PROMOTE FIRMNESS, COLLAGEN, AND SMOOTHER SKIN

Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion contains one of my go-to favorite ingredients: Alpha Hydroxy Acid, also known as AHA. AHA, a natural acid found in foods, is a superstar of the skincare realm. AHA’s are often used in anti-aging products and treatments due to their ability to gently but effectively remove dead skin layers without the unsightly peeling or redness that manual exfoliation can cause.

For those with sensitive skin, AHAs can be drying, but Eucerin Advanced Repair Lotion and Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion contain several buffering ingredients that keep skin hydrated enough to stay soft and supple while benefiting from AHA. What a great duo these two make to treat, protect and hydrate!

 

 

As a side note, I find the AHA in Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion quite helpful with Keratosis Pilaris (KP), better known as those “chicken bumps” that appear on upper arms. For optimal skin health, KP treatment requires both exfoliation and hydration which makes Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion and Eucerin Advanced Repair perfect for the job. And I like that they are fragrance-free and absorb quickly without leaving residue on skin or clothes, which is highly preferable to any medicated KP treatment. Eucerin Advanced Repair Lotion keeps you hydrated for 48 hours.

QUADS AND HAMSTRINGS

Are your legs sore at the end of the day? Whether from wearing high heels or chasing toddlers the leg muscles often need attention. These exercises work the entire quad and hamstring inch by inch and add in a stretching component for a deep muscle massage. Doing these exercises daily makes legs far more comfortable, even after a busy day on your feet.

And because even skin that is not exposed to the elements can still become very dry, this Eucerin series pairs Eucerin Original Healing Lotion uses simple, safe ingredients to help repair skin. It is paired with the Eucerin Skin Calming Creme for a total beauty wellness leg care plan. The Eucerin Skin Calming Creme is formulated with natural oatmeal to calm skin and keep it moisturized.

CONCLUSION

The Eucerin “Prepare to Repair” video series makes the most of easy to implement, reparative stretching exercise techniques paired with effective skin products targeted to specific skincare needs. The Eucerin Repair line provides dry, itchy, rough skin with long-lasting hydration, using safe, effective ingredients that are non-irritating. Skin instantly looks and feels so much better. Eucerin replaces the dull, dry look of winter skin with a hydrated and smooth glow that quickly dries down to a non-greasy finish. Warmer weather is just around the corner, and it’s time to get skin ready to be seen. You put time and effort into your beach body workouts, don’t forget your skin!

How to get smooth feet: UTILYZE Electronic Foot File

January 17, 2017 · 2 Comments

There are many callus removal and rough foot skin treatments including salon treatments, chemical concoctions, and even garra rufa, a fish pedicure where fish eat the dead skin off the feet! But smooth, callus-free feet are easily achieved at home with the right tool. We like the Utilyze Electronic Foot File, a powerful, rechargeable device for quickly and easily getting soft, callus-free feet with smooth, flake-free heels.

SPRING’S ALMOST HERE: TURN FANGLY FEET INTO PRETTY PIGGIES NOW
In winter, it’s easy to hide less-than-glamourous rough and dry feet in warm, thick socks and forgiving, snuggly boots. But as of this writing, spring is only two months away, and foot-flaunting open-back shoes and sandals come with it. And if a vacation to a warm weather locale is in your immediate future, getting your feet smooth and callus-free is a priority.

TESTING THE UTILYZE ELECTRONIC FOOT FILE

I charged the device for eight hours before use; it plugs in by the included USB port charger. Once the light turns green, it is ready for use. I went to work on my callus and cringe-worthy dry heels.

I am frequently barefoot at home and have calluses on the outer side of my big toes. I tend to procrastinate on removing these calluses because it’s tediously time-consuming filing away with sanding file sticks or pumices, and the results are often just okay despite filing until my arm gets too tired. But the removal process is simple with the Utilyze Electronic Foot File. I used the File two ways by doing one big toe callus completely dry and the other big toe callus after soaking my foot to soften the callus. Both worked very well.

Some things I especially appreciated:

1) POWERFUL: Utilyze Electronic Foot File is a very powerful callus remover, but if you press the roller too hard to the skin, the motor stops. I like this feature so that the skin itself does not get damaged and there is no burning sensation from overuse.
2) EASY GRIP: It is very easy to grip and to use, my hand and arm do not get tired when using it.
3) FAST RESULTS: It is much quicker than using a manual file or pumice with far superior results
4) SAFETY: It is safer and more sanitary than other means of callus removal such as razors or grinders that cut the skin. It is CE international safety standards approved.
5) COMFORTABLE TO USE: It doesn’t feel hot to the touch during use, and it isn’t painful or uncomfortable to remove the dead skin.
6) EASY TO USE: With a manual sander or pumice stone, I used a lot of “elbow grease” to get the job done. But this device just requires a light, gentle glide over the skin. There is no need to rub or scrub, press or push the roller into the skin; the device does all the work.
7) LONG-LASTING CHARGE: So far the one charge has lasted through a few sessions and has retained the same level of power.

RESULTS:

Utilyze Electronic Foot File made quick work of smoothing my heels; that happened quickly in a few minutes. The callus removal I did in two sessions, using the fine roller. Not being familiar with the device at first, I didn’t know if the skin could use a rest, but it probably could’ve been done in one session. So far, the calluses have not returned, and my feet stay smooth after a very quick treatment. I also lightly glided it over the soles of my feet and toes to remove general dead skin.

The results were better than I got from the decadent foot soak and pedicure treatment that came with a full spa day of beauty pampering at a very expensive salon. As relaxing as a spa foot treatment can be, I prefer having my own filing device to eliminate any risk of infection.

I was also surprised at *how* much dead skin exfoliated so quickly into a fine powdery dust, so make sure to use the device somewhere it is easy to clean up afterward or drape a towel, drape cloth or old newspapers under your feet.

BOX CONTENTS:
The device comes boxed with the rechargeable file itself, instructions, a USB port charger, one fine roller and two coarse rollers, a roller cover cap, and a cleaning brush. The color choices are red or black.

Replacement rollers are available at Amazon when they eventually need to be replaced, but they are pretty solid and clean up well.

CONSTRUCTION:
The device is well constructed with sturdy materials; it is suitable for professional use. There are no loose or shoddy parts. I like that it’s rechargeable so that it is a sealed device instead of requiring batteries. It comes with a three-year warranty program.

It is easy to switch out the roller heads by pressing the button on the side which releases the current roller.

CLEANING THE DEVICE:
There is a small brush included in the kit to remove any dry skin dust debris from small crevices, and the roller quickly washed off under a running faucet.

CONCLUSION:
The Utilyze Electronic Foot File is a very powerful callus remover, suitable for men and women that gets the job done!

It is an easy, enjoyable beauty treatment that provides instant gratification of smooth, softer foot skin. It smoothes tough callused feet to as soft as silk.

Unlike hand-held foot files, The Utilyze Electronic Foot File gives very effective results and leaves my feet soft enough to ensure against snagging expensive hosiery or trouser socks. It also leaves feet smooth enough to go bare foot or wear strappy sandals. Better results than I got at the spa!
