Last week I visited IOMA to get my skin analyzed and found out I had some redness in my skin and some clogged pores. This week, Jessica, the skin specialist at IOMA, along with the IOMASPHERE suggested the 4 IOMA moisturizer which soothes redness and swelling. Not only did the moisturizer tone down the redness in my skin it also made my make-up wear so much longer during the day, without retouching, even in this Houston humidity.

I also got the privilege of experiencing a facial with Jessica and my face was soft and looked brighter the day after. I had also woken up that day with a rash on the side my face, probably a reaction to some other product I was using and it completely disappeared the day after. The facial is completely non invasive and 100% relaxing; it made my skin feel hydrated and soothed.

The IOMA skin care line has arrived to Saks 5th Avenue in Houston and I can't be more excited to get my skin evaluated and have my skincare products customized according to my exact needs. The IOMASPHERE is unique in its kind and you can only find it in Saks inside The Galleria.
As you can see, the IOMASPHERE analyzes TONE, TEXTURE, PIGMENTATION, UV DAMAGE & PORE CONDITION,factors that can age us if we do not treat our skin properly. I'm ready to target my clogged pores!
Even though I'm wrinkle free (yay!)and my tone and texture looks great I have many clogged pores that IOMA is helping me target with their 5 Repairing Gel. After analyzing your skin, the IOMASPHERE dishes out a receipt-like prescription with the recommended products for your skin, no guessing or assuming, just a deep analysis of your skin revealed. I'll be back to the IOMASPHERE in a week to track my changes. I'll keep you updated!
Stay beautiful!
I had the funnest time this week with Bumble and Bumble hair products because I got to be a hair model for their styling classes. This was such a great opportunity to discover more of the Bumble & Bumble hair line (I was a fan of their Surf Spray before going full force!) and all the goodies that can make my fine and sometimes lifeless hair a Victoria Secret model creation (the VS Angels do have the best hair!).
My favorites this afternoon were the Bumble & Bumble Does it All (molds my hair into anything my heart desires), The Thickening Spray (Light Vavoom volume!),Styling Creme (creates amazing, smooth, touchable volume close to the crown) and the Quenching Masque (to love my tresses at home).
My finished look!
The stylist used BB Prep as a hair primer to make my hair soft and make the product stick to my hair! Nice!When my awesome stylist ,Tiffanny, finished my hairstyle---it was perfect, very old Hollywood glam! Can you come to my house every day and do this to my hair? Please!? Miguel, my husband, who never notices my hair changes, loved it especially because it was very touchable.
