We Luv the BeautyBlender!

beautyblender1Now you can look like a movie star without the pricey services of a major make up artist. Introducing Beautyblender, the ultimate make up sponge applicator. Invented by top Hollywood make up artist Rea Ann Silva, Beautyblender has been created to leave you with a professional finish and a flawless complexion. Silva knows that the key to a perfect face is simple: a perfect blend. So forget your fingers or sharp-edged triangular sponges, these application methods waste make up and can leave visible streaks.

Beautyblender’s patent-pending elliptical shape makes application foolproof by allowing you to access hard-to-reach areas with stunning ease. Its suede texture is sensual to the touch and its unique curves fit the contours of your face, leaving your make up dazzling and undetectable. Beautyblender is latex free, non-allergenic and odor free.

WHAT IT IS:
A set containing a makeup sponge and a soy-based sponge cleaner

HOW IT LOOKS/FEELS:
The egg-shaped, hot pink sponge feels gentle on skin; the lavender-scented, low-suds gel has a push-down top.

WHY WE LIKE IT:
The rounded sponge has a narrow tip that easily reaches the undereye area and other tricky spots. The set comes with a plastic pedestal for convenient drying.

MITCH is here!

mitch2Men’s grooming as an industry is growing by leaps and bounds as more guys take an interest in the way they look, and many companies are taking notice. Paul Mitchell’s new collection, MITCH, is one such response to this industry growth. Described as a “fresh, fail-proof collection of products for any style situation,” MITCH’s 7 products work for a variety of hair types and styles. With names like Double Hitter, Hardwired, and Barber’s Classic (shampoo/conditioner, spiking glue, and pomade respectively), the products are made to be easy to use in any situation.

This new line of men’s products is NOW AVAILABLE at Bang Salon & Day Spa!  If you’ve been looking for products that work for your specific style, these could be worth a look. Take a look at the MITCH website for videos, full product descriptions and more.

We love continuing education! For the second year in a row, we attended The Gathering, Paul Mitchell’s annual conference. Over 3,000 hairdressers and salon professionals descended upon the new Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas for two full days of training, networking and fun.

The debut of the new men’s grooming line affectionately known as MITCH had the audience chanting for more. Guys are gonna love this new line!
