Hello, Gorgeous!

Hello, Gorgeous!

I don’t know your name but I know you are Gorgeous because ALL WOMEN ARE! We were all born that way, we just need to learn how to uncover our unique beauty buried under layers of stress, tiredness, lack of sleep (if you have a baby like I do ), and, may be, age (though we won’t tell anybody how old you are – you can look 35 forever, you just need to learn HOW!)

You are asking me why I am writing this blog? Well, let’s confess: all of us, ladies, at one point or another wanted to look like Julia Roberts or Beyonce or Eva Mendez, etc. because they are BEAUTIFUL. Not all of us, unfortunately, will have a chance to walk that red Carpet but ALL of us can be that pretty! And I want to share with you what I’ve learnt from my experience how to make it happen with minimum effort.

What is preventing us from doing it at the moment? From my experience I can say: just 2 things – MONEY and TIME. And I learnt how to fight them BOTH!

Let’s talk about TIME. I have a baby, you may be have one too, or two, or three and a job, and a house to run, and… well’ you know how the story goes. We all read beauty magazines and blogs, we all know that, for instance, to keep your face young and pretty you need to clean it, exfoliate, tone, moisturize, and use a sun block – that’s just the initial 5 steps. Do we have time to do all of them? – NO!

So in this blog I will be focusing on tips and products that can effectively do 2 – 3 jobs at a time.

Now - MONEY. I don’t know what you do or where you live but I know that financial crisis touched you one way or the other. Most likely, you don’t have means to buy all those 5 products (and that’s just for your face) so you need “multitaskers” (see above). You also don’t have spare money to buy expensive products like celebrities do, but more expensive does not necessarily mean BETTER! My background is in marketing, I know how products are priced: when you buy Dior or Estee Lauder you don’t, really, pay for the quality, you pay for the brand name.

In addition, when a celebrity is talking about her “beauty secrets” be aware that most likely she is paid to say what she is saying. Penelope Cruz, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jessica Alba, Halle Berry and most of others are spokeswomen for various cosmetic companies. They are bound by contract, not love to a certain product.

So in this blog I will try to tell you a true story about beauty products and we will focus on those that are affordable and are of great quality.

Finally, I will try to de-mistify what celebrities recommend and also provide you with information on all major beauty companies/brands, where to shop and how to shop for beauty products and save money (coupon codes will be provided :-)

I hope you will visit me often! I don’t promise to “make you beautiful”. You don’t need that because you already ARE beautiful. I will just help you to uncover and preserve this natural beauty of yours.
