OPI Nail Polish by Katy Perry



How amazing is it that OPI is adding colors inspired by the entertainment industry….We all loved the Burlesque collection inspired by the hit movie and now we are all in love with Katy Perry’s collection , after all who doesn’t want to be a teenage dream?! My daughter Sarah convinced us to try these and they sold out the very firs day they arrived. Good news girls, more have been delivered….

Katy Perry, who’s super cute, has a great variety of colors with plenty of pop and the added “Shatter” effect . OPI Shatter is a black nail polish that when applied over a dry nail color transforms into a back shattered look. It’s so cool and you’ll want to use it with every nail color you own.

Amped up Teasing Brush


Amped up Teasing Brush

I love big hair! Every where you look now there is another celeb with huge hair and aside from coming into one of the fab stylists here at FACES Beautiful, I’m not quite sure how to get this look myself at home. So, as always, I’ll share my secret…. Shhh….

It’s a new brush/comb called the “Amped Up Teasing Brush”. The Amped Up Teasing Brush is a perfect tool to create great volume in your hair. This brush is slim and sleek and has a thin end to help with sectioning off the parts of hair you want to Amp up or it also helps in creating a cute part as well! Getting this popular va va voom look is easy. Just take sections of your hair, hold your hair straight up with one hand and with your other brush your hair in the opposite direction towards the root. I know it seems like your just making a mess, but a good tease combs out as easily as it goes in and that’s what this one does. When teasing, don’t tease the top section, the part that will be seen. Leave that smooth and lay it on top of your Amped Up hair.

Of course, you’ll need some styling products to get and hold this look. Come on in any time, or shoot us a comment, or an email, or facebook us and we’ll help you choose for your hair type. And, have fun!!!

The Balm Cosmetics

The Balm Cosmetics

We have been introduced to The Balm, a great fun and easy to use makeup line. The Balm was created literally in someone’s kitchen and began with just a few lip glosses and has expanded to a full line of cute girlie inspired cosmetics. We love the names these products have like Mary-Lou Manizer and No Money No Honey. How cute is that? And these products have female inspired names that come from their creator’s real life family and friends. The Balm is a versatile line that works by combining its own products by layering them and also creates a great base to add makeup from other lines. The cute packaging and reasonable price points are a great idea for teens and maybe a little younger girls who want to begin to experiment with fun color and learn about a great cosmetic line.
