BEAUTY FOR HOROSCOPE: GEMINI GIFT GUIDE

Any Geminis in da house? In the latest edition of my horoscope beauty gift guide, we’re talking gifts (and let’s be honest, treat yo’self gifts) for beauties born from May 20th to June 20th. It is said that Geminis – the astrological sign based on twins – have somewhat dual natures. They’re artsy and creative, embrace spontaneity and love to do things on a whim. At the same time, they aren’t afraid to say how they feel and sometimes these strong opinions can get the best of them. Geminis are complex souls and need the right circumstances (where they feel supported and cared for) in order to be their most positive, open selves. Don’t we all?





Many current horoscopes state that 2016 is a very empowering year for the Gemini. There is a lot of growth both personally and professionally. Whereas in years before where Geminis may have felt lost or stifled with plans, they now have a clearer focus. With this focus comes an intense drive to embrace opportunity. This is very thrilling for someone who feeds off excitement and enjoys taking the reins.


Now, onto the goods. The second half of the year means peace with home and personal life – exactly why this natural Soak in Love soak is such a good fit. A romantic rollerball perfume is to remind them to keep nurturing those personal relationships and good things will come.


Another attribute of Geminis – due to their thirst for adventure – is youthfulness. Play it up with glossy berry lips and fun but practical products like a tangle teezer detangling brush, Josie Maran’s “vibrancy” foundation, or a skin cream with playful packaging. For a free spirit that wears her heart on her sleeve, this adorable pin is a thoughtful gesture.

 The thing to remember about Geminis is that their openness allows them to break from the norm and try new things, so when giving gifts, you want to turn them on to something they might not have seen before, like a cushion blusher or thiswaterdrop lip tint at Peach & Lily, or even a new concept altogether like RGB’s nail tints (that match up with your skin tone).

What to Do If You Don't Like Your Cut or Color

It happens to the best of us: You walk into a salon with ambitions of Gisele-like layers, only for the color to turn after one shampoo, or worse, you end up leaving with a much different cut than you expected. What's the protocol to follow if you aren't satisfied with your final result? We spoke to Matrix celebrity stylist George Papnikolas, who has worked with Kim Kardashian, to outline exactly what to do, and as it turns out, the phrase "Speak now or forever hold your peace" isn't one reserved solely for the wedding chapel.

If your haircut is too short, or the color ends up brassier than you desired, speak about the issue while you're in your stylist's chair to get it fixed right away. "Ideally, you would address it in the salon, and your stylist will tell you if they're too busy and you'd need to come back, but we can usually fix it right there," he says. "Most things are quick, easy fixes, and it's something I'd rather you tell me instead of you leaving miserable." For haircuts, determine just how much you're comfortable having chopped, and exactly what lopping off one inch will look like before your stylist picks up the scissors. "You want to set yourself up for success in the appointments by bringing lots of pictures, and take two minutes to have a real consultation," Papnikolas advises.


Of course, there are situations, particularly in the color realm, where one shampoo will impart a completely different result than the one you had when walking out of the salon. "Our salon rule is that if you let us know within a week, we can fix the color free of charge," Papanikolas says. "The great thing about color is, unless your hair has been burned off, it can ususally be fixed if it needs to be adjusted or tweaked." Keep in mind that pastel tones washes out much more quickly than those in the natural-looking spectrum, though if your red, brunette, or blonde has completely faded after the first time you lather up post-salon, alert your stylist. "In that situation, it's acceptable to come back to the salon, but in general, toners will wash out after a few weeks," he says.


One of the most-common situations where the client ends up unhappy with the final result is when the hair change was spurred by an emotional decision—such as, you just broke up with your long-term boyfriend and decide to go platinum blonde. We can't drive the point home hard enough: Do. Not. Do. This. "Those are tough because you probably won't be happy," Papanikolas tells us. "You get calls in those situations where it's like, 'I want to dye my hair dark,' then they hate it and want to go back. In those cases, we do charge. Be patient with your stylist and don't do those emotional hair changes!" Another cardinal rule? Unless you truly want your stylist to go all out with their creative streak, don't tell them they're allowed to do whatever they want. "Don't ever say that to a stylist!" he says, laughing. "We're really creative, so we'll get crazy."

The 8 Color Trends That Dominated 2016

2016 was an especially colorful year, and the one that gave your old-school ombré some serious competition, at that. In a surprising departure from the contrasting tips and roots that have been the norm for years, the new and improved ombré took on many variations, from the sombré technique (short for subtle ombré) to the blonde-brunette hybrid better known as "bronde" to stars like Jennifer Lopez. But that doesn't mean 2015 was centered around the natural look—stars like Tyra Banks proved that the rainbow movement is here to stay, at least for now, with highlights covering most of the ROYGBIV spectrum.





Shop Hair Color, Hair Extensions & Wigs at here. Check out latest eBay redemption code july 2016, eBay promo code for saving now!

To end the year on a beautiful note, we put together a list of the 8 hottest hair color trends you should add to your vocabulary, stat. Scroll down to check all of them out now, and to learn about the subtle nuances that define each one.

GREGG DEGUIRE/WIREIMAGE1. BRONDEWalking the line between sunny blonde and a rich brunette, the bronde trend popularized by celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Blake Lively is the hair equivalent of a flattering one-size-fits-all shirt for its ability to flatter both warm and cool skin tones alike.

STEVE GRANITZ/WIREIMAGE2. PASTEL TIPSWho knew Day-Glo strands had such staying power? While many dismissed the rainbow hair trend as a passing fad, celebrities like Tyra Banks, Nicole Richie, and Miranda Lambert among many others proved that unconventional hues were here to stay, with pink tips being one of the most popular choices. 

DANIEL ZUCHNIK/WIREIMAGE3. SOMBRÉSombré—or subtle ombré—involves the same general idea as its OG incarnation with the lighter tips and natural roots, but is less obvious and results in a more natural-looking end product, à la Chrissy Teigen's sunkissed highlights.

LAURA CAVANAUGH/GETTY IMAGES4. GRAY HAIRIn a striking contrast to the days we once spent attempting to cover our grays, stars like Dascha Polanco hopped on the silver hair movement, which became a trending topic across just about every single social media platform ever shortly after.

JASON MERRITT/GETTY IMAGES5. TORTOISE SHELL HIGHLIGHTSAlso referred to as "écaille," tortoise shell hair color, à la Jessica Alba, is similar to the sombré technique, but involves warmer colors as highlights and involves a few well-placed lowlights to make your base hue much darker and richer.

ILYA S. SAVENOK/GETTY IMAGES6. PUMPKIN SPICE HAIRUnlike the venti latte by the same name, pumpkin spice strands like Christina Hendricks's are anything but basic. To get the rich auburn tone, ask for a color with more copper and gold highlights, rather than the traditional red-on-brunette combination.

AURACOLORIST/INSTAGRAM7. OIL SLICK HAIRIn what might be the brunette's answer to the pastel hair trend, the oil slick effect involves painting jewel-toned dyes onto a dark base to mimic the multi-tonal appearance a real life oil slick gives off.

JEFF KRAVITZ/AMA2014/FILMMAGIC8. STROBINGJust like the strobing technique for your face amps up your features with a touch of shimmer, the strobing method for your hair follows the same rule. Using your base color as a guide, certain parts are lifted ever so slightly to impart a natural-looking effect similar to what you'd get after sitting in the sun, but are strategically placed to flatter your face shape, as demoed by Gigi Hadid.

Next GEN BEAUTY: THE 411 ON THE MOST BUZZED

Beauty devices aren’t necessarily something new. There have been motor-free ones like the derma roller and epilators for decades. In today’s world though, when our skin care isn’t working fast enough for us and we’re taking more preventative measures to stay youthful, high-tech beauty tools have really upped their game. Now you plug in your cleanser, use vibration waves to make your moisturizer absorb deeper and zap away any imperfection. And that’s not even the unusual tools you can use!
Beauty technology is being developed by companies that truly understand and care about the longevity of your skin and want to create unique, state-of-the-art technology that really works. Not to mention, these are perfect for different aging or discoloration concerns. I think it’s about time we accept the idea that we can charge our phones while also charging our facial cleanser. So why not start with these 4 buzzed about beauty devices–they’ll fix any issue.

You can buy this items at eBay.com and Check out all the latest eBay coupon codes, promo codes & eBay 10% off coupon now
Jenu–I’ve seen plenty of bloggers rave about this one and for good reason. If you’re spending a pretty penny on your skin care and want it to really absorb into the skin and deliver on its promises…well, Jenu is there to help. It allows the various products you use to be fully absorbed through the skin’s surface, so those wrinkles you see can start to disappear. Jenu’s technology actually pushes the product through that stubborn initial layer using ultrasonic waves, allowing it to fully infuse essential ingredients deep into your skin. 
Mia Fit–Clarisonic has been a cult favorite since its release. It heals dry-ness, cuts through stubborn makeup and can improve the skins texture. But if you’re looking for something that’s not as harsh that delivers the same great results without fear of overusing, then the new Mia Fit is for you. It is small in size but improves the skin in a big way by exfoliating and cleaning even the most sensitive of skin types. No matter the state of your skin, you can benefit from the power of this cute little mini cleanser.
Dermaflash–The newest of the four products, Dermaflash takes exfoliation to a whole new level. Inspired by dermaplaning, Dermaflash has an edge that you gently slide across your face to remove debris, dead skin cells and that pesky peach fuzz you’re not too thrilled about. In turn, your skin glows brightly (meaning you can go makeup free more often) and your skin is smoother (meaning when you do wear makeup, it will glide on perfectly). The greatest part, the device costs about as much as one in-spa treatment would cost. I’m all about at-home preventative care, so anything that helps my skin in about 5 minutes, sounds good to me!
GloSciene–We all know that no outfit is complete without a smile, so why should your teeth be left out of the beauty revolution. At-home whitening techniques can be messy and harsh on your enamel. G.L.O (Guided Light Optic) technology gently but efficiently locks in the whitening through the teeth and gets rid of stains fast. 
I can’t help but keep coming back to my love for this product as I mentioned in my Best Of 2015 video. This is a beauty essential for keeping your teeth white and luminous all year long. Who doesn’t want that?

How to Find Online Coupon Codes on Fashion, Beauty

Applying coupon codes is an easy way to save money online, yet most shoppers fail to take advantage of them. It's a hassle to leave a site you are shopping while you have items in your online cart just to look for a coupon code, and many times we check out on the spot when we see a product we like.

Considering the way many websites are set up, this should be no surprise. Retailers actually design sites specifically to encourage shoppers to search, add to cart, and buy on the spot, instead of stopping between shopping and checkout to apply money-saving codes. In order to save the most money on your next purchase, it's essential to look for a coupon code before you even begin shopping on a retailer site.

Coupon codes, also known as promo codes or discount codes, can save you money in a handful of ways. Some work for online shopping, by providing incentives such as free shipping, and others will save you money on your order total. Some retailers will promote coupon codes on their sites to encourage purchases, however these are often not the best deals. The vast majority of retailers do not display active coupon codes, meaning shoppers must go offsite to find a code and get the most savings.

Luckily, coupon codes are all over the Web, and certain sites are dedicated solely to providing up-to-date coupon codes and links. Coupon sites are usually categorized by retailer or brand, and will usually tell you the success rating of each coupon code, which helps you determine if it's worth trying. Coupon code sites also provide links to secret promotions that retailers are running on hard-to-find landing pages, which can be accessed directly through the link.

Online coupon code hunting is faster than traditional coupon clipping, but the diversity of coupon sites makes online searching a more complicated process. Although all coupon sites do provide active codes, there is no clear "best" site to find coupon codes. Many coupon code sites feature different coupons, meaning it's important to check more than one site. Certain sites are dedicated to specific types of shopping, such as grocery shopping, while others will feature coupon codes in almost any category imaginable.

How to Find Coupon Codes Online
You can find coupon codes online in three ways: via search engines, using automated shopping tools, or direct from coupon code sites. Before you search for coupon codes, you should know what brands you are looking to buy and what retailers you want to shop. It's also a good idea to have a pen and paper handy to jot down coupon codes, and a new browser window in which you can open multiple tabs.

If you want to find the greatest diversity of coupons, it's best to start with a search engine. In the search bar, simply type in the name of the retailer or brand and the terms "coupon codes," "promo codes," or "discount codes." The results you get from searching a retailer or brand and the term "coupon codes" will be different from the results you get searching with the term "promo codes," so it's best to try more than one search. The more options you have to find the best coupon code, the better your chances are of saving the most money, and of finding a code that most adequately applies to your upcoming purchase.

You can also find coupon codes with automated shopping tools, such as aggregate coupon tools and price comparison tools. These tools are automated browser add-ons that automatically display coupon codes when you land on retailer sites, or when you go through an online checkout. The tools claim to find the best coupon code from across the Web, to instantly save you time and money. Ideally, they should be used when you are more determined to shop at a certain retailer than you are to buy a specific product. To see coupons immediately when you land on retailer sites use PriceBlink. To see coupon codes upon checkout, use Honey or eBay Coupon Codes 2016.




You can use automated shopping tools in addition to other coupon code search methods to ensure you're getting the best deal. It's best to try different automated shopping tools before you shop and see which one best fits your needs. Use one tool at a time when you shop, as having too many shopping browser add-ons can cause complications with how the tools work and how websites load.

If you prefer going directly to coupon code sites, there's an assortment to choose from. This process saves you the work of using a search engine and searching through results. However, going directly to coupon code sites will limit the variety of codes you see, so it's best to check more than one site. This approach works best when you're looking for a specific coupon code, such as free shipping, rather than looking to see all codes that are available.

How to Find and Use Online Coupon Codes

While many savvy shoppers are familiar with achieving big savings by using coupon code 2016 available through most department stores, only 38 percent of American households report having used an online coupon when making a purchase from online retailers.

Online coupon codes offer consumers a chance to save money on their online purchases, just as paper coupons do inside traditional stores. Most shoppers who've never used an online coupon say they're missing out because they don't know how to find online coupon codes.
Stephanie Nelson, of www.thecouponmom.com, joined ABC News' "Good Morning America" to offer tips on how to find and use online coupons. Check out Nelson's tips below.
Understanding Coupon Codes: These codes can be entered in a "coupon code" or "promotional code" box on an online order form for most online retailers. The coupon code has a specific offer attached to it. Offers can range from free shipping to 25 percent off of purchases or more. Once the shopper enters the coupon code, the discount will be taken off the order form automatically. Coupon codes are not found on the retailer's own Web site. They usually are placed on other sites as a method of advertising to bring shoppers to the retailer's site.
Finding the Best Codes: Use a search engine, such as Google, Yahoo! or another you prefer, to do a search for the specific coupon you desire. For instance, if you're looking to buy something at Gap.com, you should search for "Gap Coupon Code." Hundreds of results will occur and it's up to you to find those that are most current. If you're not sure where you want to buy a specific item and you want to determine which retailer is offering the most savings online, do a search for simply "Coupon Code." This search will result in the most comprehensive coupon code Web sites. Major coupon code sites have full time staff that searches for and updates coupon codes daily. Specialty coupon code sites are geared to a specific audience, like mothers of young children, and will focus on retailers for their market.
Using Online Coupon Codes: When you find a coupon you want to use, just click on the provided link and shop at the merchant's site as you normally would. Before checking out, enter the provided "coupon code." Be sure to check that your savings are applied in your shopping cart before completing the order and keep in mind that coupon codes may expire at any time.
Maximizing Your Savings with Coupon Codes: Research and find the best coupon code sites for your retailers before you need to do online shopping. Select a few favorite coupon code sites and bookmark them so that you'll be able to save quickly when you need to shop online. Make it a habit to search your favorite coupon code sites for a coupon code before any online shopping order. Check online retailers and available coupon codes before shopping at the same bricks and mortar store. There may be more savings available online for the same merchandise. Plan and consolidate your purchases to reach minimum purchase requirements for free shipping. Subscribe to e-mail newsletters of favorite online retailer, which will frequently include short-term online coupon code offers in their newsletters. Lastly, subscribe to e-mail newsletters from your favorite coupon code Web site for up-to-date codes and special retailer offers.

Here's an example of how you can save more by combining offers from both online coupon codes and online rebate sites:
You plan on ordering three books for holiday gifts. Via a search engine, you locate a coupon code that offers free shipping on orders received on www.barnesandnoble.com. Then you go to www.cutouthunger.org and locate a coupon code that offers $5 off a $50 order on purchases made on www.barnesandnoble.com. Then you go to www.upromise.com and click through to www.barnesandnoble.com, a move which earns you a 3 percent rebate or $1.50 into a college savings account. You order the three books for a total of $55.37, with free shipping. Total savings with $6 free shipping, $5 coupon code and $1.50 in college savings plan: $12.50
Find out how you can use the Internet to save money year-round by going on Nelson's Web site, www.cutouthunger.org. Nelson's Web site, created with help from Georgia Tech, is a virtual coupon organizer that is kept current with help from volunteers, who provide information on grocery sales in 18 states across the country. Nelson, of Marietta, Ga., hopes satisfied shoppers will share their savings or a few of their purchases with local charities, which are also listed online.

How to find eBay redemption code for fashion items you buy at eBay.com

You know the old saying: nothing ventured, nothing discounted. Or something like that.
If you buy a lot of stuff online, you've no doubt experienced the pang of longing that occurs when faced with a Discount/Promotion Code box on an e-tailer's checkout page. If only you had a code, maybe you'd save a few bucks. Or even score free shipping.
Before you click Submit Order, it pays to spend a few minutes code-searching. There might just be one out there waiting for you to copy and paste.
For example, I recently ordered a bunch of water filters from Filters-NOW.com. (Seriously, I buy everything online.) When I got to the checkout page, sure enough, there was the Promo Code box.
So I did what I always do: I opened a new tab, ran a quick Google search ("Filters-now code"), and looked for options from the various code-aggregating sites that appeared in the results: Coupon4Share, CouponCabin, Dealspl.us, RetailMeNot, Savings.com, and so on.

Sure enough, I found a 10-percent-off coupon--and it worked! My minute or two of searching saved me a total of $8.36--not a fortune, but certainly worth the effort.
Now, caveat searchor: this kind of code wrangling doesn't always pay off. Sometimes I don't even find a code for the store or purchase in question, and even when I do, it might be expired or invalid.
Find great deals & eBay Coupons 90% OFF Code, eBay Redemption Code July 2016 on eBay store

But like they say, nothing ventured, nothing discounted. It never hurts to try. A few minutes of searching might just save you a few bucks--and maybe even more than a few. Give it a whirl the next time you buy.
And if you've scored a particularly awesome code just by searching, hit the comments and tell me how much you saved!

ESSENCES : 6 PRODUCTS WORTH TRYING

Korean beauty is a big player in the skincare game. Their 10 step facial regimens are sweeping the nation along with fads like sheet masks, gradient lips and now: essence. Actually, essence is so important in the Korean beauty regimen that it’s become its own skincare category. Further, you can now find these new must-haves in all the big luxury beauty brands too. But what IS essence?
The easiest way to define them is by process of elimination. Here’s what they’re not: Toner. Cleanser. Serum. They deliver a higher dosage of active ingredients to your skin than cleanser or toner. They’re filled with extracts such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin, which immediately hydrate and comfort skin. They restore your skin’s natural pH balance. To top it off, essence also has insanely effective anti-aging properties that combine with hydrating and luxurious qualities to help skin stay moisturized and young.

For Oily Skin – Essences are generally loved by those with dry complexions, or for those who tend to over cleanse. But if you have oily skin, a product like SK-II’s limited edition facial essence may help. It’s loaded with pitera, aka “Miracle Water” and the key to enhancing the skin’s renewal process, nourishing vitamins, amino acids, and minerals to promote healthy skin cell renewal cycle. Plus, it’s formulated without synthetic fragrances or GMOs? Now you just have to decide if it’sworth the splurge. Get 2% Back on Items Paid by Paypal. Plus get up to 90% OFF eBay Daily Deals & Sale Events. Get it now! Click here
Then what are facial mists for?Though some facial mists serve as setting sprays to keep makeup in place, most exist to cool and refresh. Rather than a touch up tool, essences are meant to be integrated into your daily routine. You can apply it before makeup is applied or after it’s removed, by patting or pressing the product onto skin with clean hands. Now that you know what it is and how it works, here are some to get you started:

For Sun Damage – The coveted Mela Defense Essence is a brightening essence that corrects dark spots and hyperpigmentation, and discoloration from acne. It contains sakura and white flower to brighten and revitalize skin for a healthier, more even skin tone and it’s ideal for all skin types.
For Anti-Aging – Kiehls’ Iris Extract Activating Essence Treatment is said to deeply nourish, renew and replenish skin, providing moisture for up to 24 hours after application. With the iris florentina flower as a key ingredient, your skin’s ability to retain moisture will quickly improve. This is a long term must, as the benefits get better over time.
To De-Stress – We all know that our mental states can affect our visage – and stress is no exception. Lancome formulated their anti-stress essence to relax skin. It provides intense hydration for a smooth and more refreshed complexion. Couple it with yoga or a massage and you’ll be ready to take on the world again.
Double Duty – Like I said, essences aren’t just another serum or facial spray. But MAC’s versiondoes blur the line a bit. Their Marine-Bright formula is concentrated, but lightweight and the Super Duo-Charged Water and vitamin C will brighten skin and capture it in a veil of moisture. The addition of a serum combines with the essence to powerfully condition and plump skin for a smoother look and feel.
The Essential – Last but not least, the best-selling Mineral Treatment Essence from Cremorlab features their proprietary T.E.N. thermal water to hydrate, brighten and smooth skin and its texture. It’s essence is paraben-free, artificial color-free, fragrance-free, and denatured alcohol-free, making it suitable for all skin types. This is a great well rounded version for those just getting started in the world of essence.

THE BEST FOUNDATIONS FOR SKIN TONES

In our daily beauty routines, there’s one important step that preps our skin for the rest of our makeup. Foundation is the basis that evens out skin tone, hides blemishes, and creates a smooth canvas so that killer galaxy eyeshadow and highlighter goes on without a hitch. Save Up To 90% OFF Daily Deals + Extra 10% OFF eBay Sales & Coupons. Redeem this eBay coupon code for savings now!

For those with fair or dark skin tones though, finding the perfect foundation match can be challenging. For the longest time, brands would only cater to something in the middle. Luckily, many have now expanded their range of foundation tones so that everyone can find their perfect match, whether your complexion is light or dark. Here are a few options:
Fair Skin:
The biggest obstacle for the fair-skinned is finding a product that doesn’t give off that unnatural orange glow or fake tan look. Well, some brands have heard your call, and now entire lines cater specifically to paler complexions, offering a range of super-fair shades to choose from.
One of the most popular is Bobbi Brown’s Skin Foundation Stick, which has shea butter and olive extracts that help it glide on flawlessly. The lightest of the tones is Alabaster, but there’s also a whole range of fair shades to choose from. There’s also beloved cult brand Illamasqua, which is inspired by Asian beauty balms. Try tones 01 and 02 of their Skin Base Foundation. They’re ultra light in color and still look natural and smooth. Get 2% Back on Items Paid by Paypal. Plus get up to 90% OFF eBay Daily Deals & Sale Events. Get it now
Or maybe you have a go-to brand you want to stick with, but can’t quite find the shade light enough for you. Revlon Colorstay in Buff and Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Foundation in Alabaster are fair-skinned faves. But if you need to go even lighter, try Ultra Foundation Pro in Zero Minus from pro makeup artist brand Face Atelier. It’s an adjuster, so you just add a few drops to a foundation you already like, and it’ll lighten your product to whatever shade you need — almost like a custom foundation for your very own unique tone. 
Dark Tones:
For dark complexions, you’ll want to test the foundation on your jawline and neck area, to make sure it blends smoothly in both zones. The True Color Stick Foundation in Hazlenut from Black Opal is specifically made for darker skin tones. It’s got SPF 15 too, which helps protect against the sun damage that often creates those pesky uneven spots.
Urban Decay’s Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup has super specific colors. If you know you have a warm or cool undertone beneath your deep complexion, this product comes in warms (with color codes ending in .0) and cools (ending in .5), making it easy to work with your individual skin.
One thing to note: if your skin is oily, you’ll want to go a shade lighter — because skin’s oils create an illusion of a darker shade. You might also want to try an oil-free product, like Fashion Fair Oil Free Perfect Finish Cream-to-Powder foundation. It’s a trusted company that’s been around for four decades, and their new cream-to-powder formula won’t make a mess or look cakey, all the while keeping your shine at bay.
