The Return of the Ponytail!
Clear Rhinestone Pony Tail Hair Clip
Winter is close at hand and than means flat and unruly hair! Beauty Match hair guru along with Glamour Magazine claim ponytails are the way to go. There are so many varieties of the ponytail, from a high pony to a loose pony with waves and tendrils to an adorned ponytail with colorful clips and barrettes. For best pony results, chose a rubber band that won’t break or pull at the hair. If you’re going for a high ponytail, slick hair back and finish off with a spray of Elnet to get that extra hold! For a low ponytail, comb hair back to the base of the neck and finish off with a few colorful or metallic clips (our favorite L. Erickson Candy Cliq Clac in Onyx). Finish off hair with a spritz of a shine mist (our favorite: Citre Shine Mist- Anti Frizz)

Up-do is a Must-Do!
Garnier Fructis Anti-Frizz Serum, Sleek & Shine, 5.1 oz.
The undone ‘up-do’ has been seen all over celebrities recently and is big for the Fall! This is one of the easiest hairstyles to do on your own. Start by smoothing out hair with a round brush and hair dryer. Make a low loose side ponytail and then turn the ponytail inside out thru its middle. Then fluff and use a little spray to hold in place, My Beauty Match junkies recommend Fructis Voluminzing Anti-Humidity. Loosen a few strands in the bang area for a sexier look. You’re all set for holiday parties without having to go to the hair salon!

I’m Living Proof of “Living Proof”
Living Proof No Frizz Conditioner, 8-Ounce
Like most of you I color my hair and sometimes abuse it by over using my styling tools, so my hair can look dry and over processed. What is a girl to do?? For the past few months my sister has been telling me about a hair care line called Living Proof and swore that it not only changed her hair for the better but it saved her hair. Living Proof was developed by two scientists from MIT and is a no frizz, humidity-blocking line of products. I recently gave it a try and my hair has never felt or looked healthier. Living Proof won best hair product in More Magazine this month, not to mention Allure’s best of 2011! While these products can be a little expensive, it is worth ever penny! Insiders of My Beauty Match give Living Proof 2 thumbs up!
Elnett Satin Very Volume Hold Hairspray
L’Oreal Elnett Satin Very Volume Supreme Hold Hairspray 200 ml
Yes Elnet has been around for about 40 years, but it continues to be a favorite amongst celebrity hair stylist. This is mostly because it really holds the hair in place while giving it a shine. The mist is so fine you won’t feel like you have hairspray on and you’ll look like you’re walking the red carpet!
Some Do Like it Hot
My Beauty Match Insider Fall Trend alert: soft full dresses were all the rage at New York Fashion week! So how do we get soft full, frizz free hair? The problem with shampoo is that most contain sulfates, which dry out hair eventually thus causing frizz. Bed Head introduced an anti-humidity collection called Some Like it Hot, which is sulfate free and seems to do the trick! This collection offers a shampoo, conditioner and styling products, our favorite is the serum and it smells like coconuts on the beach!

Best Ways to Lighten Your Skin – Natural Products – Goodbye Dark Spots
Everyone wants to look good. Seems that every time you open a magazine or turn on the TV there are beautiful celebrities everywhere. Their hair is perfect and their skin is flawless. No dark spots, no uneven skin tone and no blotchiness. Sometimes I wish I could just run out of the house without makeup and look flawless too. Alas, I cannot. I am blonde and fair skinned and have a few freckles and a lot splotchy-ness. I realize I need to find a way to lighten these spots and fast!

The first and most sensible thing to do is start wearing a strong SPF everyday and a hat. But sometimes I forget or just can’t match a hat to my outfit. There is no question that many a celebrity has appeared recently with lighter, more even skin tone and less freckles. Nicole Kidman somehow shed her famous freckles of the 1990’s and Rihanna looks much lighter over all than when she first hit the music scene. How are they doing it? I don’t see them with hats on all the time. Are they taking weekly trips to the Dermatologist’s office? Maybe they’re using amazing skin care products?

After a lot of research about skin lightening products, I’ve narrowed it down to a few. One option is to see a dermatologist and have a chemical wash that contains glycolic acid. These washes do work but can cause some irritation and the pigmentation usually returns. Dermatologists also offer in office Microdermabrasion treatments (see at home Microdermabrasion System 6 piece),which can help to remove dead skin cells and hyperpigmentation, but cost a pretty penny. Another option is to use skin care products that contain hydroquinone.
Pro + Therapy Ultra Rich Night Repair (1.7 oz.)
Hydroquinone will lighten skin, but there are many negative side effects and can cause permanent pigmentation elimination i.e. ‘bleached out’ skin, think Michael Jackson. However, Kinerase makes a good product that contains hydroquinone called Kinerase Pro + Therapy Skin Lightner (Kinerase Day Care, 50 ml Pro+ Therapy Ultra Light SPF 30 for Women) if you decide to go this route. Going the natural approach is also an option. Products that contain alpha arbutin can act similarly to hydroquinone except that they aren’t as intense and do not bleach the skin. Alpha arbutin, a natural ingredient derived from berries, acts to inhibit the melanin in the skin as opposed to bleaching the dark areas.

So, what to do? I think I will choose a combination of three. First, I will go see my dermatologist and see what he has to say. Secondly, I will start wearing my SPF and a hat as much as possible and then I will try Goldfaden’s Disappear serum. The reality is that it’s very hard to look perfect all the time and with Kim Kardashian’s announcement that she has Psoriasis, I don’t feel too insecure about some silly freckles and brown spots.

I would never be caught dead without topical moisturizer, but lately, I’ve started to take internal skin rejuvenation pills to help me fight the signs of aging from the inside out.
I had been using Genuine Health’s Omega Glow for a while now, but they have just put out a new product that is incredible!
It’s a fact that winter months do such a number on our skin and dryness becomes one of the main issues most of us have to contend with.
Using moisturizer is quite common and it comes as no surprise that according to the largest consumer skin care survey conducted in North America, BrandSpark International, 85% of adult women use an external moisturizer. That said, depending on the type of topical moisturizer you use, you can end up with a cream or lotion that sits on top of skin without ever penetrating the skin to deeper layers.
That’s where an internal anti-aging pill becomes so important. If you’ve not yet tried an oral anti-aging pill, you might want to take a look at all the benefits you get from using Dermalipid by Genuine Health.
This oral anti-aging pill is a combination of plant ceramides, phospholipids, squalene and fatty Acids/GLA that nourish, protect and rebuild skin, moisturizing it from the inside out.
In fact, Japanese researchers showed in that oral plant ceramides improved hydration in the stratum corneum by 253% after 3 weeks (vs. placebo) in human volunteers! And a recent report from the Satou Hospital in Osaka, Japan, suggests that oral administration of plant ceramides can turn down the dial on inflammatory chemicals in young children with chronic skin inflammation.
