Style Thursdays: Gold Standard Skin
Hey guys, The Beauty Buff's on vacay, so she sent this post to me in transit! What a dedicated Beauty Expert!!! RH
You’re probably not JLo (if you are, Hi Jennifer! Thanks for reading my blog. Hope the twins are good), so you probably assume that the kinds of luxuries she allows herself are beyond your reach. I totally understand. I imagine that twice a day two bronzed 20-year-old pool boys in tiny bathing suits slather Mrs. Anthony-Lopez’ body in La Mer. And while that may be true (and I like to think that it is), it turns out that Jennifer is also a fan of a Canadian-based skincare line called Elizabeth Grant.
The 50-year-old company, still headed by Elizabeth herself is known for Torricelumn, a skin-moisturizing potion that was first created by Grant in 1948 and was applied to the wounded during the war. Business really took off when, as a makeup artist, Elizabeth started using the product on her clients.
Lopez is a fan of a newer, more luxurious product from the line: Caviar Eye Pads. A combination of Omega-3 fatty acids from the caviar extract and Torricelumn plump, smooth and nourish Jenny from the block’s tired eyes. And let’s be honest, for $40 for a package of six, Jenny can afford a lifetime supply and should probably get some for Marc, too.
The Caviar lineup also includes a rich night cream, Rejuvenating Ampoules, which are nine tiny bottles of a concentrated caviar blend, a cream infused with Caviar Pearls that release the fatty acids into the skin as the cream is massaged into the face, and even hand treatments.
The line Lopez should look into next is called Biocollasis Gold Essence. And that’s not just a flashy name. One of two main active ingredients (the first of course, being Torricelumn) is actually gold. Apparently Cleopatra’s facialist used to pamper her with masks of pure gold. The super luxe ingredient is meant to rejuvenate, refine and revitalize the skin. There’s an Advanced Cellular Radiance cream and concentrated Gold Essence ampoules perfect for that pre-moisturizer boost one always gets from rubbing ones face with luxury.
