Pumpkin Beauty with Erika Katz

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011

Beauty writer and former child model and actress, Erika Katz has been a beauty junkie nearly all her life. Using her experience from her days working in the beauty department at Seventeen magazine, cosmetology classes and lessons learned through her extensive work in television and modeling, Erika created a beauty guide that served as the foundation for her book Bonding Over Beauty, A Mother-Daughter Guide to Self-Esteem, Confidence and Trust. From product and styling tips, such as how to create the perfect ponytail, to at home recipes for creating an organic facial scrub, Erika explores it all in her book, in which she includes her own experience as well as information from interviews with top beauty experts. Erika has appeared as an expert on shows such as The Today Show, The Doctors and Fox News. Below she shares two “Do it yourself” recipes using pumpkin, a fall favorite ingredient.

Pumpkin is rich in vitamin A, which is very healing to the skin and is essential to maintain and repair skin tissue. It also helps reduce lines and wrinkles. Honey is a humectant. The cream moisturizes and helps flaky skin

Pumpkin face mask
2 tsp canned pumpkin pureed
1/2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp heavy whipping cream
Mix all ingredients and apply to face. Leave on for 10 min and rinse. .

Pumpkin scrub
1/2 cup pureed pumpkin
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp honey

If a “DIY” Pumpkin Scrub is not an option try Clientele’s Thermal Pumpkin Scrub or consider shopping for pumpkin beauty products at Bath & Body Works.

Benefit’s Beauty Stay Don’t Stray

Monday, August 1st, 2011

Benefit Cosmetics STAY DON’T STRAY crossed my desk just in time to share this product news with my niece. The other day she mentioned that her eye shadow “strays” just a few hours after application. She thought she had found the perfect solution. I chuckled at her “fix”. Well, that didn’t work but Stay Don’t Stray does. It’s a neutral shade primer that works all around the eyes to keep shadows and concealors in place. I tried it on my lips before lipstick and, for me, it worked there too. “Sorry Danielle. It’s mine. Get your own.”
