MY RX HOW TO AMP UP YOUR SUMMER SIZZLE!!! (As seen on CW Good Day Sacramento)
I’m pretty hooked on social media! Instagram and Facebook have replaced crossword puzzles during a “potty break!”  However, I think one of the biggest drawbacks ladies wrestle with is once a photo goes up of your new dress or hairstyle… your social circles have now seen it! So my question to all of us is: “How do you reinvent your summer sizzle without breaking the bank so your able to rotate in some new fashion statements on a regular basis?” This got my wheels turning and I set out to research the cleverest ways to tackle this conundrum. Plus while I was at it, I picked up a few great ideas about melt proofing your entire appearance, head to toe when summer weather strikes.

4 WAYS TO AMP YOUR SUMMER BEAUTY REGIMEN:

1. “EYE” LOVE YOUR SPARKLE!
1 Day Acuvue Define Contact Lenses
Price : One month supply varies by doctor, but can be as low as $65
Shop: www.acuvue.com/define
Head to a participating eye doctor in your area, the Acuvue web site will help you determine who to make an appointment with
What: This is a whole new way to amp up your natural beauty this summer. Available with and without vision correction. You can choose between 3 eye effects:

  • Natural Sparkle (I got Sparkle)
  • Natural Shimmer
  • Natural Shine

Wash your hands, pop the lenses into your peepers and voila! The lens create a defined ring around the iris also commonly known as the limbal ring. Studies have shown it is a beauty cue and people find both women and men who have a defined limbal ring to be more attractive and healthy. 1 Day Acuvue Define creates contrast that makes your eyes appear brighter and more awake. It’s like eyeliner BUT for your eyes. So understand, it doesn’t change your eye color, BUT it enhances the natural gorgeous you already possess.

2. KEEP IT RIGHT & TIGHT!
Amino Genesis EYE Control Lid Lifting & Dark Circle Serum

Shop: www.ControlYourEyes.com
Beauty Challenge: People keep commenting to me I look tired, sad and at moments angry. But the thing is, I’m none of the above. How can I get my outside to reflect my inside and improve my appearance without going under the pain and expense of some drastic surgical procedure?
Solution: Eye Control is pretty groundbreaking guys! It’s the first cosmetic product in history to help tighten and lift sagging upper eye lids while at the same time improving the appearance of crows feet and dark circles. In Amino Genesis’s clinicals, 61% of participants noticed an improvement in their drooping eyelids with consistent use of Eye Control over a 60 day period. I really liked learning those numbers! Definitely the product to get on radars and try before seriously considering the cost and pain involved with any surgical procedures.

The first serum in history to address droopy eyelids!
