Red Carpet 911 Tricks!

SWEAT PROOF YOUR LOOK ~ 2 EASY “SECRETS”

Secret Body Cleansing Wipes, $4.99, Find These At Food, Drug & Mass Retailers Nationwide

These new Body Cleansing Wipes from Secret Deodorant are making their beauty debut this month! They’re perfect for removing any odor-causing sweat or residue when you’re on-the-go from gym, office, birthday or any red carpet celebration! Stash a couple in your handbag for quick and easy freshening up. They work instantly and you can use them anywhere – not just underarms! What I value most is the confidence boost you’ll feel knowing any body odor is in check. Plus an added value is inadvertently sparing your evening gown from accumulating residual perspiration that can compromise the fabric of your favorite fashion statement.

AFTER WIPING OFF UNWANTED SWEAT, APPLY SECRET FRESHIES FOR SWEAT PROTECTION…

Secret Freshies, $5.99, Find These At Food, Drug & Mass Retailers Nationwide

These are the coolest looking globes, that fit right in the palm of your hand. They’re discrete and little, yes, but pack an awesome punch when it comes to optimizing an on-the-go antiperspirant solution. And especially IF you’re attending a red carpet event, it’s not always possible to reapply in those unexpected moments when it’s needed most. Secret Freshies is a MUST for inconspicuous application wherever and whenever. It makes sure to keep you protected from odor and wetness no matter where your red carpet moment takes you. The round compact shape features finger-gripping grooves for an easy and precise clear application every time. Why does that matter? It won’t leave traces of white residue on your evening wear. Freshies easy click-lock top prevents messes while you’re on-the-go, making it a portable purse essential for your busiest days or most glam evenings. The reason it’s so effective is Secret includes a proprietary sweat-activated beta-Cyclodextrin (BCD) technology that captures odor and releases one of four premium fragrances in its place. My fave scent is “Paris Rose” since I’m a fan of blooming night jasmine.

If you overheat for any reason, Secret has you covered smelling amazing at just $11 for both products

Sphynx is the WORLD’S FIRST All-In-One portable razor. Sometimes you run out of the house and realize you missed a spot shaving (or have forgotten to shave all together!). Don’t let this get in the way of your day! Even if it’s just a few hairs on your ankle or you need to touch up your underarms because your evening gown is strapless, this convenient shaving savior is the solution to shaving ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.

You literally dial up (turn the huge dial) each one as you’re ready for that step. No need for shave cream. When you’re done, just rinse the razor or wipe it down and replace the cap on top and off you go. And get this: it’s 100% refillable, and comes in 3 fun colors. No wonder it sold out TWICE at Ulta!
