Makeover Your Feet With YogaToes

Dexie Wharton — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 16:11:20 +0000

Here’s another tool to pamper your toes. YogaToes is from YogaPro. Exercise your foot muscles and relax at the same time.

What can YogaToes do for you? According to Dr. Ben Kim from Ontario Canada, using YogaToes regularly might resolve and prevent hallux varus and hammer toes. These are 2 of the most common foot problems. Further benefits are:

Exercise your feet to stay healthy & in shape.
Improve & prevent foot problems by stretching & aligning your toes.
Ease the discomfort of Hammertoes, Bunions & Plantar Fasciitis.
Recover from stress, strain & overuse.
Improve foot strength, flexibility & appearance.
Increase circulation, straighten bent toes, & realign joints.
Improve & reduce the aches & pains associated with poor posture.

Like the Pampered Toes, I’d definitely use this while giving myself a pedicure as well. So I’m taking care of my feet twice over. It’s the multi-tasker in me. I like the YogaToes because it comes in different colors. AND, it’s designed to last a lifetime so you only have to buy it once. 3 pairs cost $99 but like I said, it’s for a lifetime so that’s a great deal. Save your feet by checking YogaToes.

Tanda Regenerate Anti-Aging Kit

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 01:03:56 +0000

I was introduced to Tanda Skincare while watching one of the morning shows last week and was quite intrigued. Albeit the intro was cut short because they had to feature other products. When the host hurriedly said, "for acne and wrinkles", I wrote the name down right away. For a better explanation, Tanda Regenerating Anti-Aging according to Sephora :

help repair skin texture, color, and tone while diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

That’s thanks to the 660 nm red light LED which prompts collagen production to do the aforementioned. The Tända Light-Optimized Cleanser and Anti-Aging Serum that comes with the kit are formulated for skin texture, tones and color repair. It’s a great at-home treatment since it’s cordless and portable.

Pamper Your Toes With PedEgg’s Pampered Toes

Dexie Wharton — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 17:21:19 +0000

While I was at Bed, Bath and Beyond the other day, I saw this Pampered Toes by PedEgg hanging in one of the shelves and I thought that’s something I’d really want for myself, my friends and everyone else pretty much.

There’s nothing we love more after a long hard day at work, shopping, or any activity that includes walking around, than kick our shoes off and relax our feet. How about relaxing our toes as well? If you really think about it, we put too much pressure on our toes on a daily basis every time we slide our feet into our shoes. The toes get squeezed, and crammed together inside our shoes.

That’s why it feels so good once we take our shoes off at home and just let our toes wiggle and stretch. With PedEgg’s Pampered Toes will relax your toes and relieve sore and aching feet with it’s cool and soft gel which soothes and invigorates your feet. You can do this while in the couch watching TV with your family, reading a book, when you’re taking a warm bath, or even at work. I’m sure you’ve taken your shoes off while doing work just to wiggle those toes. It’s big enough to put in your purse, therefore it’s also travel friendly.

You know what else I’ve thought about? You can also use it while giving yourself a pedicure. The way your toes are separated with it’s individual openings, you can easily paint your nails mess-free. So, not only are you relaxing your toes, you can paint them as well. A 2-in-one foot gadget, how fabulous!

Buy Pampered Toes at Pampered Toes website for only $10 or at your nearest Bed, Bath and Beyond store (not available online).

Zap Those Pimples With Zeno Pro

Dexie Wharton — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 21:06:32 +0000

Looking for an acne pimple zapper? In pink no less? Actually, it also come sin teal color. Here’s Zeno Pro, a hand-held rechargeable at-home treatment for individual acne inflammatory pimples.

How does Zeno works?

Zeno has a tip on top which heats to a pre-set temperature. The tip is biocompatible that when it touches the blemish on the skin it transfers heat to the follicle. Everything on the Zeno is adaptable. Meaning the energy flow adjusts to the heat which matches your skin as well as you, as the user it self.

I can’t attest to it yet but the website said the heat won’t damage the skin. Reading that was a relief because I’m a little wary of zappers touching my face. Although, I’m still a little hesitant about trying it out so any reviews from you all would be much appreciated. Thanks . For more info on Zeno Pro, check out the official website.

Neutrogena WAVE Power Cleanser

Dexie Wharton — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 20:07:26 +0000

I love Neutrogena, how about you? I got so excited when I saw the commercial of this nifty little facial gadget called Neutrogena WAVE. It supposedly washes off dirt, oil, and makeup without leaving your face dry.

Attach a cleansing pad (comes with the kit) in the attachment head. Activate the foaming pad by holding WAVE under running water. Push a button to turn it on then gently massage your face with it. Buy more cleansing pads for refill once you used up all the 14 pads that initially comes with the Neutrogena WAVE kit.

Watch Vanessa Hudgens illustrate WAVE for all of us below :

How cool is that? You can buy it in various stores like CVS, Walgreens and Walmart and online stores such as Target, Amazon and Drugstore.com. If you’ve tried Neutrogena WAVE, please feel free to share your review in the comments box.

TRIA Beauty : Personal Laser Hair Remover

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 22:38:30 +0000

What is TRIA Beauty personal laser hair removal system?

It’s a first FDA-cleared personal laser hair removal system for you to use at home. Remove unwanted hair on the legs, bikini line, underarms, arms, back, chest, and abdomen in the privacy of your home thanks to TRIA Beauty.

It uses the same technology that professional diode lasers used by dermatologists. The scientists that worked on the development of TRIA Beauty made the miniaturazation both safe and effective while using it at home.

The science behind TRIA Laser is :

based on the principle of selective photothermolysis: gentle beams of laser energy are absorbed by the dark pigment in the hair follicle and converted into thermal energy, disabling the hair follicle and causing the hair to gradually fall out. Because hair grows at 3 different stages—anagen (“active”), catagen (“transitional”) and telogen (“resting”)—repeat treatments are needed every four weeks for six to eight treatments to reach all the hair follicles at the ideal (anagen) stage when the follicle has a high degree of melanin.

TRIA Personal Laser Hair Removal System includes 3 energy levels. Once applied on the skin, the laser will emit a single pulse which targets multiple hair follicles in half-second intervals. When it’s time to move to the next area, the laser releases a short beep. The time to treat an area depends on how big the area of the skin is.

The system should be used every 4 weeks, and 6 to 8 treatments per area in order to get a long lasting hair reduction results which also gives you the soft, smooth and silky skin that you want. 2 weeks is how long it takes to see good results.

More important information after the fold….

At this time, TRIA Laser can not be used on face, head, ears or neck. There’s also information on the box of the system pertaining to skin tones. People with medium brown and dark brown/black skin tones can not use the system. These skin tones may absorb too much laser light which could cause skin damage. Light skin with tan should wait until after the tan fades before using TRIA Laser.

For safety purposes, after purchasing the TRIA system, you need to call a a toll-free number provided to confirm suitability and activate the system with a special code. A skin sensor comes with the system to confirm your skin tone as well as unlocks the laser before each treatment.

TRIA Beauty Personal Laser Hair Removal System also works with Men with the same restrictions on skin tones and body parts.

It’s priced at $995 and available at Bergdorf Goodman (NYC), The Studio at Fred Segal (Santa Monica, CA), Select Bliss Spas and TRIA Beauty website.
