Modern Family & Nicole by OPI

“Modern Family is not only one of the funniest shows on television, it features a great ensemble cast of rich characters that inspired a range of shades, from pastel hues like sea foam green and periwinkle to brighter colors of cobalt and red-violet,” remarks Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, Nicole by OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “From studious Alex to bombshell Gloria, to classic (and neurotic) Claire, to flirty Haley, there are shades to represent each of these uniquely fabulous women – and everyone else in the blended family.

“The Nicole consumer embraces the same spirit of diversity and individuality that’s apparent on the show,” explains Weiss-Fischmann. “The colors inspired by Modern Family offer a perfect way to express that spirit!”

the lacquers will be available beginning January 2013 for $7.99 each at retailers including select Walmart, Target, CVS, Rite Aid.

Coconut oil face scrub..

I have recently started breaking out, and my face wash wasn’t exactly helping, so I decide to Try something different, I have been using coconut oil & baking soda 3 times a week, and it’s working!, I was a bit skeptical since my skin can get really oily, but after doing a little research and trying it out, it doesn’t make my skin disgusting oily, see oil actually dissolves oil, and your skin needs natural oils.

Its good to detox your skin, from all the pollutants in the air, facial washes, moisturizers, ect. And by using natural ingredients you are allowing your skin to be clean, and to breathe, and to be able to do its job. Baking soda is a soft natural abrasive that gently exfoliate your skin while absorbing excess oil and contaminants that are hidden in your skin, while coconut oil is a very light, anti-microbial oil loaded with vitamin E and omega 3's which your skin will absorb well and will allow your pores to breathe. Making it a perfect combination for your skin.


What you need:
¼ teaspoon Baking Soda
½ tablespoon Coconut oil
Warm Water
cloth

Directions:

Put a warm towel over your face to open up your pores, Mix the teaspoon and coconut oil, as you rub the oil in your hands it will become liquid and rub gently all over your face
(If you scrub hard, your skin will over-produce more oils almost immediately.) let it sit for a few minutes then rinse with warm water.
Your skin will feel sooo soft
