Clinique unveils a colourful nail innovation for Sensitive Skins

Posted by: Beautybevies

Did you know a person touches their eyes on average 200 times a day? With all that comes in contact with hands and fingers throughout the day, there are many culprits that can irritate the eyes. Did you know that nail enamel can cause irritation and even contact dermatitis on the susceptibly thin skin around the eye? Amongst the dermotological community, nail enamel is also considered a significant allergen source for periorbital dermatitis—a facial rash that develops around the lower and upper eyelids. People who suffer from these conditions often-times do not realize the connection between touching and rubbing the eye area, and fresh manicures.

Clinique offers a solution!!

As an allergy tested and 100% fragrance free cosmetic brand, Clinique scientists challenged themselves to develop a nail enamel formulated to minimize unwanted reactions to the nails and skin and eyes. 

Six years in the making, Clinique introduces a pioneering innovation to the nail enamel industry: A Different Nail Enamel for Sensitive Skins is formulated to minimize skin sensitivity. It is dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested and appropriate for sensitive skins and sensitive eyes. 

Clinique conducted extensive research to ensure that A Different Nail Enamel for Sensitive Skins meets Clinique’s standards of utmost quality. In fact, three years of research and three years of product development stand behind A Different Nail Enamel for Senstive Skins. The final revolutionary formula was tested for one month on women with sensitive skin and sensitive eyes.

The formula is beautifully balanced to maintain a high shine and streak free application. It’s quick drying and available in a wide colour variety, including a few of Clinique’s iconic hues and seasonal, trend setting shades. The high gloss finish is chip resistant for seven days of wear when used in tandem with A Different Nail Enamel Base and Top Coat for Sensitive Skins. 

Clinique’s new nail enamel also makes at-home application easy. An exceptionally designed thin, flat brush allows for a controlled spread of saturated colour to glide easily and evenly across the nail bed.

And the colours....... Awwwww am in love with them..... 12 shades in a rainbow array of go-to colours make up the permanent Clinique nail enamel collection including: Call my Buff, Sweet Tooth, Fizzy, Hi Sweetie, Really Rio, Happy ♥, Red Red Red, Party Red, Black Honey, Indie Rock, Concrete Jungle and Made of Steel.

Let these cute and clever shade names transport you to a different time and frame of mind.. 

• Black Honey: Clinique’s iconic, fan favourite Almost Lipstick shade is now for nails and richer than ever. 
• Red Red Red & Party Red: Two of Clinique’s most beloved shades of red lipstick now exist for nails. 
• Concrete Jungle, Indie Rock & Made of Steel: an array of metallic greys reflect modern, edgy and contemporary style. 

 A Different Nail Enamel for Sensitive Skins is dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested and formulated for sensitive skins. Available at Clinique from June 2013 onwards for INR 1,100/- across India.

Three Steps :

Step 1 

Cleanse with Cleanance Soapless Gel Cleanser

It cleanses and purifies your skin while respecting its pH. This very gentle paraben-free cleansing gel is perfectly suited for young, oily blemish-prone skin of the face and body. It purifies the skin and controls oil secretion without abrasion (no rebound effect). Its seboregulators and anti-bacterial key ingredients eliminate impurities and excess oil. Key ingredients like Cucurbita pepo help minimize excess sebum, while Avène Thermal Spring Water soothes the skin, leaving it clear, fresh and non-irritated. It prepares the skin for treatment. This is a very economical product, as a small quantity is enough to be effective.

FACT: This product was tested morning and evening for 21 days by 30 people with acne-prone skin, and 100% of the users noticed that their skin was clearer after 15 days!

Step 2 

Treat and eliminate imperfections with TriAcneal

Paraben-free TriAcneal helps eliminate severe imperfections while smoothing your skin. Effectiose ®, a patented innovation from PFDC Research Center (France), regulates the influx of irritating substances at the follicle level. Glycolic acid helps to peel away impurities, while Retinaldehyde regulates the formation of skin flaws and prevents residual marks. The soothing effects of Avène Thermal Spring Water provide the skin with a feeling of instant comfort in this formulation as well.

FACT: This product was tested on 47 people with skin imperfections. As early as the second week, 85% users noticed a decrease in residual marks on the face!

Step 3 

Restore radiance with Cleanance Deep-cleansing Purifying Mask

Have oily skin with light imperfections? This paraben-free mask, which turns into a scrub, erases, eliminates impurities and tightens pores, a three-in-one way to perfect skin! Enriched in soft clay and vegetal key ingredients, this mask absorbs excess sebum, while its micro-particles unclog your pores gently, giving your complexion clarity. Its mattifying qualities help restore your skin’s velvety texture.

FACT: This product was tested by 32 people with oily skin once or twice a week and 97% of the users felt that their skin was purified, smoother and exfoliated satisfactorily! 80% of the users said they experienced a visible no-shine result as early as one hour following application!

Published by: Beautybevies

April 2nd,2013

I was very fascinated with the whole 'BB' cream hush hush happening around.. Maybelline BB cream impressed me and I used it for quite sometime until I saw Deepika Padukone glancing through the television pointing at 5 treatments by Ganier BB Cream. After using Maybelline BB cream I din't really feel like switching my brand (but deepika forced me too!!!) So there I went purchasing the Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector!!

About the Product

It's an all-in-one moisturizer which caters to all your skin problems. It gives you

• Fairer looking skin
• Healthy glow
• Blurs lines and imperfections
• Evens skin tone
• Gives 8H moisturisation

Wow!!!! that's like too much in one.. 

Specially formulated with the goodness of Vitamin C, Almond extracts and Brightening Minerals, the Garnier BB cream deeply moisturises your skin and gives you that radiant glowing look. 

It's a nice small beige tube which is convenient for travelling purposes. Handy and can be used anytime anywhere. The top of the tube has a small nossle so no fear of the cream spilling out. It has a very girly, sweet fragrance. The cream spreads easily and gets absorbed quickly. It doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. My skin glows instantly and i feel fresh! Blurs imperfection - uuhhhhh not sure of that. .  

Price

Press Release: Lakme Sun Expert Range

Get salon-like even skin tone with Lakmé Sun Expert Range

Published by : Beautybevies

Every minute spent in the sun will give you a tan which is likely to get worse if you do not take action every day. For a salon-like protection you need to protect your skin as well as reverse the sun damage every day. This is now possible by making the innovative and effective Lakmé Sun Expert Range part of your daily skin-care regime. Formulated by Lakmé experts and recommended by salon professionals, Lakmé Sun Expert Range evens out your skin tone making you look like you have just stepped out of a salon!

The Lakmé Sun Expert Range comprises of two varied sets of products: sun screens in varying SPF strengths to protect your skin and damage reversing formulations for cleansing and moisturizing. Recommended by salon specialists, it gives you 97% protection from harmful UVA and UVB rays and protects you from deep-skin damage caused by the sun. Both product lines are dermatologist tested, non-hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and contain extracts of cucumber and lemon grass that offers the best protection and soothing properties against sun damage.

Tanning causes deep damage to the skin’s derma layer and is the most visible sign that your skin is suffering. Sun spots, pigmentation, age lines, dryness, uneven skin tone are some of the other signs of sun damage. A ‘de-tan’ treatment at a salon rids your tanned skin and evens out your skin tone. Now you can flaunt that salon-like result everyday by using the Lakmé Sun Expert Range while also protecting your skin against damage.

Two step regime for an even skin tone:

Step 1: Protect

Before stepping out every morning, make sure you use the power-packed Lakmé Sun Expert UV Lotions with varying SPFs to protect your skin from the harshness of the sun. Re-apply every 2-3 hrs especially if outdoors, to ensure day-long protection.

Protect your skin with the range of Lakmé Sun Expert UV Lotions:

• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 50 PA +++: For normal to dry
• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 30 PA ++: For normal to dry skin
• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Fairness + UV Lotion SPF 30 PA +: For Oily Skin
• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Fairness + UV Loti on SPF 24 PA ++: For all skin types

Step 2: De-tan

On returning from a day of sun exposure, whether indoors or outdoors, make sure you apply the soothing Lakmé Sun Expert After Sun Range to remove the tan and correct your skin tone. For effective benefits make Lakmé Sun Expert After Sun Range a part of your daily regime.

De-Tan your skin with the use of Lakmé Sun Expert After Sun Range:

• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Skin Lightening + De-Tan After Sun Face Wash: Evens out the patchiness caused by the      sun
• ·         Lakmé Sun Expert Skin Lightening + De-Tan After Sun Face Mask: Evens out and lightens tanned skin
