Beauty Buzz | OLEHENRIKSEN Skincare

OLEHENRICKSON is has been the spa of choice of celebrities for years and now you can take home the experience and the results of this cult favorite spa with the namesake skincare line. I have the pleasure of trying almost all of the latest skincare products as a fashion editor and consultant so I know exactly what to look for and which lines actually deliver what they say they will. After using OLEHENRICKSON products for the past four weeks I can confidentially say that this is the one line I will go back to. Here are some of my favorite products from the line.

Dry/Sensitive Skin Starter Kit
I really love this kit not only because all of the products work together seamlessly to give your skin a beautiful glow but also because the products come conveniently packaged in travel size which is very important for me because I'm always on the go. I use the apricot cleanser, cucumber toner, nurture me face cream and the insulator SPF daily and in that order. Then every 2 days I incorporate the new beginnings scrub and blueberry enzyme mask. My skin has been very distraught due to the summer heat which not only makes my skin oily and clogged but a breeding ground for blemishes. After using this kit I have not had a breakout and many of my previous blemishes are disappearing. For more information click here.

Walnut Complexion Scrub
The Walnut Complexion Scrub is a fabulous scrub! I am big on exfoliation so I am obsessed with scrubs and try as many possible. This scrub in particular is very grainy but not coarse ad also lathers when you add water. Your skin will feel refreshed, renewed and revived. For more information click here.

Anokha Skin Care Fit For A Goddess

Coming from an Indian background I learned at an early age that some of the most luxurious, effective and exotic skincare ingredients come from nature. We love coat our hair with amla oils, mask our faces in homemade masks of crushed turmeric and yogurt and exfoliate head to toe with coconut skins. These traditions have been passed down through thousands of years and still prove to be as effective for us as they were for our gorgeous ancestors. Now you can enjoy the exuberance of Indian skincare in your own home with Anokha Skincare. A new skincare line that combines ancient Indian remedies with modern skincare for a revolutionary line of products that delivers results. I love to wake up every morning to my Anokha Almond Milk Cleanser which revives and refreshes. Surprisingly this rich cleanser takes of every bit of makeup without striping my skin of it's natural moisture. I follow up with the Anokha's lush Lotus Flower Rose Water Toner which soothes any redness. Once a week I like to treat myself to the Red Sandalwood and Neem Clarifying Masque which also contains turmeric. It leaves my skin brighter and thoroughly cleansed. This is one line that I will always have in my beauty regimen. See the entire collection of Anokha skincare products here.

Clear Skin Made Easy With Clinique


My search for an easy skincare regimen for beautiful skin is over. Thanks to Clinique's three step acne solutions system, skincare has become affordable, effective and most of all simple. The system is composed of three products which you use three times a day that are gentle yet very effective. You will see an improvement within a few days. Here's how it works:

Step 1: Cleanse with the cleansing foam. The cleansing foam is so gentle but lathers up so well leaving your skin feeling clean but not raw. It's similar to the purity foam by philosophy.


Step 2: Tone with the clarifying lotion. You'll need to shake the bottle vigorously to dissolve the sediments into the solvent. You apply the clarifying lotion using a cotton ball and it removes all excess dirt and oil that the cleanser didn't pick up leaving no chance for bacteria to attack your skin all day or night. It also improves your skin tone and exfoliates dead skin from the surface allowing the next step, the clearing moisturizer to work its magic more effectively.

Step 3: Moisturize with the clearing moisturizer. I adore how hydrating this moisturizer is. It soothes your skin and leaves your skin fresh.


This regimen is to be followed two times a day. This system is perfect for males and females with all types of skin types, and I recommend it even if you do not suffer from acne. It's best to prevent it before it happens. You never know when your skin will breakout so it's best to be prepared. If you don't suffer from acne and use this system rest assured your skin will be soft, clear and beautiful. Remember no matter how great your skin is it's important to remove a days worth of makeup and pollution, exfoliate dead skin and also to moisturize, everything this system includes. On the other hand no matter how bad your skin is there is hope and it can be repaired. This system is a great start. Get it here.
