Introducing the New Proactiv! It is the same effective formula, but now enhanced with exclusive new micro-crystal benzoyl peroxide acne medicine designed to get acne fighting medicine into the pores fast, penetrating even clogged pores quickly.
So what else is new about Proactiv? They have added a new cast of celebrities (including Katy Perry & Avril Lavigne) and exclusive enhancements to their customer experience. Customers will receive unmatched access to round-the-clock guidance and support from trained Skin Care Advisors, as well as new online tools including Proactiv Day One – a comprehensive online support system to help customers get the best possible treatment experience literally from Day One.
As a former Proactiv user, I was excited to try the new formula to see how it compared. In the photo pictured above, you can see what came in the New Proactiv box. The packaging is definitely different and included some great bonuses including a nice laminated Quick Start Guide and a book by Dr. Rodan & Dr. Fields titled The Doctor’s Secrets to a Lifetime of Clear Skin (the orange book in the photo). The book is an easy-to-read guide that gives 30 doses of wisdom about skin and stopping acne. The product bonuses for my box was the Refining Mask and Green Tea Moisturizer.
After the first week of using the New Proactiv 3-Step System + bonus products, my skin felt more smoother, tight, clear & refreshed. I also noticed the new innovative formula works much faster than the previous one. The Green Tea Moisturizer was a real treat for my skin because it gave a calming/soothing effect. Overall, I have been very pleased with the results of the New Proactiv and plan to keep it in my skin regimen!

Our favorite celebrity makeup artist Christopher Drummond – who has worked with celebrities, such as Jennifer Lopez, Brooke Shields, Jane Fonda, Glenn Close and Eve Ensler – offers his advice to Stylish Moms for looking flawless this season.
According to Christopher:
A big trend both in fashion and in makeup is the “moonstruck” look. Nothing says glamour like a gown and smokey eyes. And this season, the dresses are slender and simple with an occasional train and details to dazzle. To compliment your fabulous dress, makeup is flirty and smokey.
Here are Christopher’s tips for achieving the perfect smokey eye:
1. Start with a beige shadow base all over the entire lid.
2. Take a gold shadow, and apply it 3/4 of the way up, not quite all the way up to the brow. Leave some space between where you stop and the brow.
3. Apply a blue/grey shadow from the crease (middle) of the eye to the base of the lashes. Be sure to blend it well, back and forth. This helps the product adhere, and stay on longer.
4. On the outer corner of the lid, blend in a purple eye shadow to give some extra “sizzle.” Blend well.
5. Finally, use a black liner to line the base of the lashes. Follow with mascara.
To compliment your new smokey eyes, Christopher suggests lush lips and radiant cheeks. The new Fall/Winter Color Collection from Christopher Drummond Beauty has products for all the trends this season in one collection (plus it’s all-natural, vegan and organic)!
Valentine’s Day makeup should be all about the lips, according to celebrity makeup artist Christopher Drummond. If you have the perfect date this Valentine’s Day, but still need the perfect makeover to look your best, here are Christopher’s tips for the perfect Valentine’s Day look:
To feel more romantic, use naturally scented lip products.
If you are hesitant to wear bright red lipstick, wear a soft red gloss instead.
Valentine’s Day is all about kissing the one you love. Be sure to keep your lips hydrated with shea butter. This natural ingredient keeps your lips smoother longer than petroleum.
Use your lip liner on top of lipstick. This helps to avoid the oblivious line around the lips when your gloss comes off. Lining after your lip color also allows for easier application and blendability.
For fuller lips, add shimmer (try: apply Christopher Drummond Beauty Relache Ice Eye Shadow to the inner lips to create the illusion of fullness)
Christopher Drummond Beauty offers an all-natural, petroleum-free, soft red lip gloss called “Lucious” (featured above) that is perfect to wear on Valentine’s Day. The gloss contains the essential oil of blood orange, which gives it a light, refreshing citrus scent. It also contains castor oil, coconut oil, soybean oil and vitamin E.
First on our list is EyesLipsFace better known as e.l.f. Their philosophy is that beauty comes from within and it’s their goal to enable every woman to look and feel her personal best through the perfect blend of both the inner and outer person. Most of their products only cost $1 and you will fall in love with the makeup brushes like I did. Experience e.l.f.’s revolutionary, value-priced cosmetics and the proven results they offer today!
Another favorite of mine is Coastal Scents. I actually discovered them on YouTube because so many people were doing tutorials on their famous 88-color eyeshadow palettes. Don’t be fooled by the number of colors and price of $21.95 because these eyeshadows are very pigmented and rich. They also sell other items like gel liners, lip gloss palettes, mineral makeup, makeup brushes and more!
For super-smooth and evenly toned skin you have to try Emerita. The microdermabrasion face scrub exfoliates while stimulating surface-level cellular renewal. It is pH-balanced, unscented and has no artificial coloring.

I know you are thinking how is that possible – but with the Bath Desserts collection it is!
Bath Desserts is a fun, hip and imaginative company that makes hemp seed oil infused bath and body products and age-defying beauty treatments for the entire body. Hemp seed oil, the key ingredient that makes Bath Desserts unique, contains the perfect ratio of poly-unsaturated essential fatty acids, known for their excellent moisturizing and healing properties.
Their bath collection includes Hemp Seed Oil Sorbet Sugar Scrubs, Fizz Balls, Body Butters, Body Soufflé Lotions, Body Melt Truffles, Lip Butters and Bath Sprinkles – and I will give you the scoop on several of them :)
The first product I used was the Hemp Seed Butter Infused Harvest Sorbet Sugar Scrub. I used it on my legs a few weeks ago and the scrub exfoliated them perfectly. My skin felt very smooth, looked healthy and smelled great.
After the Sugar Scrub, I was ready for the tub products the next night. I filled up my oversized garden tub and tossed in the Hemp Seed Oil Infused Plumeria Fizz Ball. It bubbled away as my daughter and I watched it disappear. As I stepped in and relaxed in the tub, it definitely felt like a pampering session for me. The oil from the ball moisturized my skin and had that great Plumeria fragrance. Another night, I tried the Hemp Seed Oil Infused Plumeria Bath Sprinkles. It also had that great Plumeria fragrance and my body felt like it was rejuvenated.
Each time I had my spa-like bath, I used the Hemp Seed Butter Infused Vanilla Body Butter. It was very rich and a little went a long way. My skin looked healthy, moisturized and refreshed!
My favorite from the collection were the Hemp Seed Butter Infused Mango Body Melt Truffles. They looked exactly like white chocolate truffles (see above), but were loaded with hemp seed butter and mango butter. After my shower, the truffle melted and left my skin deeply moisturized and rehydrated. Each time I used Bath Dessert my entire bathroom smelled amazing and so did I!
All Bath Desserts products are handmade in the United States, are eco-friendly, contain no animal-derived ingredients and are not tested on animals. They are available in spas, medi-spas and on the Bath Desserts website.
