ALL BLAIR - Lifestyle Blog
Don’t we all wish we had the skin of a newborn baby no matter our age? Well, that’s not likely for any of us as adults, but we can take years off our appearance with the right approach. If you haven’t heard of microneedling, you’re going to love me for clueing you in. ;) Some people are turned off by the idea due to the involvement of tiny needles penetrating your skin, but I can promise if you give it a try, you’ll be amazed by the lasting results you gain over time. So what is Microneedli...
Just because I live in Middle Georgia, it doesn’t mean I can’t look like I just left the beach! On days I’d rather leave the flat iron cold in its holder, I’ll go with this fun, beachy textured style. My hair has a natural wave to it, so by applying good product I can gain a great fresh from the sand look. Who doesn’t love a quick yet gorgeous hairstyle? I sure do! ;) My favorite products to achieve this look are: AG Curl Trigger Defining Spray is said to be ideal for fine hair, but...
Why be blah when you can sport the best looking fashion at the gym or, in my case, CrossFit box? Fitness fashion has come a long way in the past few years and I take advantage of that step forward Choosing tops, shorts, pants and shoes that enhance my CrossFit workouts and, like my regular clothes, show off my lean, muscular body is the only way to go in my book. A staple in my fitness wardrobe is the Nike Fundamental 2" Split Shorts made with Dri-FIT fabric that helps wick moisture away from...
How old do you think I am? 24? 25? 26? Ah, you flatter me! Well, I’ll allow you to continue to live under that delusion. ;) But if you’re anything like me (and if you’re reading this blog you probably are) you’ve looked in the mirror, pulled back your skin and wished longingly for the days your skin defined gravity and was smooth as silk. We all know, if you’re at all familiar with me, that I will be the first to volunteer as the guinea pig for any new type of treatment or product. I’m like t...
Do you yearn for a deep summer glow but worry about the harmful damage the summer sun can do to your skin? Join the club! ;) Obviously, I am a huge fan of all things health and beauty related, but I also long for a tanned fit body. As we all know, UV rays in tanning beds as well as the warm summer sun can create lasting damage both superficially and deeply in the form of skin cancer. UV Tanning causes the skin to lose elasticity and wrinkle prematurely. This leathery look may not show up...
Keeping it Casual & Comfortable yet Perfectly Stylish
Not really high- low fashion (where you sport high end designer pieces with other items that are more affordable), but here I’m showing you can pair something a bit more expensive like Guess jeans with a very affordable shirt from one of my fave shopping hot spots: H&M. If you’re not familiar with H&M allow me to offer you an education… it’s on trend, extremely affordable (especially if you’re able to wait to purchase when they have sale...
Exfoliating is another of my key tips. When done correctly, it can make an absolute world of difference. However, I have to caution you: there is a right and a wrong way to do it. It is essential for you to be gentle with your skin and remember not to scrub abrasively. Abrasive scrubbing can take off your healthy skin while mild exfoliation takes off only the dead skin (which is what we want). One reason why I love exfoliating so much is because it promotes skin cell turnover. Skin cell turno...
