I am currently crushing on Lancer Skincare.  Who knew it was the skincare dujour last week, used by two of the industry's top makeup artists on celebrities Helena Bonham CarterLaura Dern and Mena Suvari  for the big event?

Lancer Skincare is developed by celebrity dermatologist 
Dr. Harold Lancer, who is known as the'go-to doctor' for nearly half of Hollywood — helping to brighten, tighten, and contour them to ageless perfection in his Beverly Hills office.
For this year's Oscars, three stand out products from the Lancer Skincare collection helped the aforementioned leading ladies put their best face forward —
  • Oil Absorber ($35) – Gently controls the appearance of oily skin by toning and providing a micro-matte finish of natural minerals and purified clays. Red Carpet use: Helps prevent shine (particularly in the T-zone); Also excellent as a makeup primer all over the face, helping foundation stay in place and preventing caking or smearing.
  • Eye Bright Illuminator ($85) – Specially formulated to contain a comprehensive system of peptides, antioxidants and moisturizers to reduce the appearance of dark under-eye circles, under-eye puffiness, and fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. Red Carpet Use: Instantly brightens and smoothes the under eye area for a 'wide awake' look; Also great to apply on the tops of eyelids and under brow bone to brighten and create a smooth base for eyeshadow application.
  • AM/PM Nourish ($100) – AM/PM Nourish is a potent, anti-aging treatment super-charged with a multi-peptide complex and essential age-defying ingredients. This dual day and evening moisturizer restores skin firmness and visibly diminishes the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Red Carpet Use: Creates a smooth, even base for makeup application and helps skin stay properly hydrated throughout the day/evening.
All products are available for purchase on www.lancerskincare.comwww.nordstrom.com, and Nordstrom stores nationwide.

WHAT? Airbrush Laser Liposculpture with Dr. Aaron Rollins – It’s only getting easier to lose fat NOW!

February 27, 2013

I wouldn't have believed it unless I saw it with my own eyes. The Before and Afters. Talking to two women who had the procedure LAST NIGHT!!! Seeing the pix of the giant TUBS of fat they had removed – all, under no anethesia, within less than an hour, zero down time and THAT IS IT.

Hollywood's liposuction doctor to the starsDr. Aaron Rollins patented Airbrush Laser Lipo Sculpture is the latest insider beauty secret that whipped many a celeb (I will never tell who!) into awards season red carpet shape in no time.  

The Airbrush Laser Lipo Sculpture procedure allows Dr. Rollins to sculpt bodies using a 2mm device that drains the excess fat leaving no scars or stitches behind and most patients can even return to work within 48 hours.  

Unlike the typical liposuction surgery which can require up to 6 months of healing, this is a standard beauty procedure similar to botox or a chemical peel where patients are awake the entire time and can have full conversations, talk on the phone or even listen to music during the procedure.

“Patient comfort is my main focus,” states Dr. Rollins “because we focus exclusively on laser liposuction at Elite Body Sculpture, this has allowed me the ability to pioneer new techniques to increase patient comfort and maximize their results while minimizing their recovery and down time.” 

Read more about Dr. Rollins below – the amazing thing is, this is ALL HE DOES. This is his THING. He created, perfected and patented this technique.  You may have recently read THIS ARTICLE in LA CONFIDENTIAL.

Here are some of Dr. Rollins’ most popular procedures we saw on the red carpet this season:

Oscar Arms

Sleeveless dresses are always a trend on the Oscar red carpet and many women, even celebrities, have unwanted “flab” under their arms. Dr. Rollins says Airbrush Laser Lipo on the arms is one of the most popular procedures requested during award season. In less than a week the patient is fully healed and ready to show off their sleeveless dress and fantastic arms.

Ball Gown Body

Any woman who wears a ball gown, celebrity or not, needs the perfect shape inside the dress to look their best outside. To achieve the perfect look while wearing a tight ball gown dress, Dr. Rollins suggests an instant “butt lift” by removing the tailbone fat and sculpting a perfectly shaped derrière as well as taking some fat out of the waist line.

Camera-Ready Face

Dr. Rollins says removing fat from under the chin makes the biggest difference in appearance. A few minutes of Airbrush Laser Lipo under the chin can instantly make your entire body look thinner.  I AM SO DOING THIS ASAP ASAP ASAP – HAPPY FOURTY SOMETHING BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEE!  Promise to let you know how it goes!

L.A. Christine No3 Berry Face Oil

February 22, 2013


BerryFaceoffI am a fiend for a face oil (or ANY oil for that matter). When L.A. CHRISTINE No3 BERRY FACE OIL came across my desk I went super-gaga for it. It's yummy in every way. I just started using it so I can't report on any cumulative effects. But the immediate feeling is divine, healing and nourishing. If my skin could talk it would be chanting, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUU.  You only need a teeny drop and it's not greasy, it absorbs and penetrates quickly and deeply, doesn't sit on the skin, is great for all skin types in all weather conditions. 

The recipe packs a punch with a uniuq combo of 3 powerful antioxidant berries.

The Scandinavian Lingonberry (Puolukka in Finnish) is one of the most potent berries in the world from the Scandinavian Nordic hemisphere. The lingonberry’s Latin name is vaccinium vitis-idaea. According to Dr. Oz, Lingonberry is the new SUPERFRUIT.

Lingonberries contain plentiful organic acids, vitamin C, provitamin A (as beta carotene), B vitamins (B1, B2, B3), and the elements potassium, calcium,magnesium, and phosphorus. In addition to these nutrients, the seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.

The Brazilian Acai Berry is a warm-climate berry harvested from palm trees. The Acai berry is infused with omega fatty acids with anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and immune boosting properties as a result of its concentrated vitamins and minerals.

The fatty acid content in Acai resembles that of olive oil, and is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid. It helps omega-3 fish oils penetrate the cell membrane; together they help make cell membranes more supple.

The Raspberry is full of vitamins and minerals. It dramatically enhances the skin’s elasticity, reduces age spots and shields the skin from the damaging effects of the sun. Raspberries rank near the top of all fruits for antioxidant strength and are linked to significant health protection.
