At-home hair color has become brilliant with fool-proof formulas and can take you as little as ten
minutes.  Before you start though, consider the season and your skin tone – winter is always a great
time to experiment with a darker color, but you want choose a color that’s going to complement your
skin tone.  If you’re fair, try caramel or deep auburn brown shades.  Also, look for formulas that contain
low ammonia and rich oils – these are staples for super shine and little damage.

Another area we’re always looking to improve – our smile.  There’s no need for expensive
appointments and procedures. At home whitening kits can be a great substitution and provide the
same results without the commitment.  For example, the
REMBRANDT® 2 Hour Kit only takes 2
hours from start to finish.  It’s the #1 pharmacist recommended whitening kit and has the same
enamel safe formula dentist’s use. I like to use the kit during the evening, by the time your favorite
movie is over, you can hop off the couch with a brighter, whiter smile.


Rembrandt 2 Hour Whitening Kit
Price: $24.99

release peroxide formula that begins working on contact to oxidize dyes and chemicals found in food
items and beverages, such as tannins in tea, coffee and red wine. Visibly whitens teeth in just one 2-
hour treatment.





To make that smile appear even whiter and give your skin a healthy glow, self-tanners are great to
experiment with.  Especially with the tanning tax going into effect, self-tanners are an affordable option
over a trip to the salon.   Just remember, less is more when learning about the intensity and durability
of a particular formula and I suggest using tanning mitts or surgical gloves when applying to avoid
stained palms.

Finally, show off that smile with perfectly plumped, glossed lips.  No need for any professional
procedure, you can get this look by simply wetting a toothbrush and gently brushing your lips for
about a minute to exfoliate and remove any dry flakes.  Next, apply a product with an ingredient like
hyaluronic acid to fill fine lip lines and colored gloss like Neutrogena MoistureShine Gloss to create
your perfect, picture-ready, smile.
