4 Hair Color Trending This Season

The great thing about our hair is that it’s like a blank canvas, giving us the freedom to give it life in whatever way we want. Some prefer long, straight locks while others get perms for instant styling. Others let it grow up to their calf while some cut it to a bob. And there are also those who dye theirs, bold shades of green.

However, for those who are into basic hues trending for a certain season, then this is the perfect article for you. Here are 4 hair colors everyone is loving this season:

Vibrant Copper

The color red has been in most shows during the New York Fashion Week, making it the biggest color trend for this season. For those who dare to try this shade, make sure to stick to copper undertones and not burgundy, as you should also be prepared to endure long hours at the salon to keep the color fresh.

Chestnut Brown

Chestnut brown is also an obvious choice for this season, a gorgeous brunette with copper undertones. This is perfect for those who want to go red but don’t have much time.

Caramel Ombré

This caramel, melted hue is different from the bold ombré of the past, as it gives a softness and brightness to the face. The shade is perfect for naturally brunette people who want to refresh their color.

Satin Brown

There will be an increase in rich, glossy brown this season (thanks to the Kardashian clan). To achieve this shine, make sure to book glosses with your colorist every two to three weeks for quick revitalization.

So, get started with your hair dyeing adventure while taking great care of your locks!These are just 4 of the many colors you can try for your hair on your next salon appointment and there are still so many options out there you can choose to go crazy with. However, these kinds of treatments may be damaging to your locks. You may want to try our Hair Care line: Lichen + Coffee Shampoo and Conditioner, Voila! Locks Hair Masque, and Hair I Am, Hair Booster for full rejuvenation and protection without having to worry about your color fading.

The Perfect Contour and Highlight Shades for Your Undertone

The makeup game has come a very long way. So many changes and upgrades have been made from glossy lipsticks and dewy complexions to everything matte, bold colors to natural tones, and hiding all blemishes with three layers of foundation to putting a bit of freckles across the nose area. Basically, you only needed 3 kinds of makeup before but now, you have a gazillion products to make a masterpiece.

And two steps that have been added to upgrade one’s makeup routine is contouring and highlighting; the former technique is used to create the illusion of flattering bone structure while the latter accentuates areas of the face that are naturally hit by the light. There are so many ways to properly do both but there is one basic thing that everyone needs to know first. That is knowing the correct contour and highlight shade for the skin undertone.

Curious with what your shade may be? Read on.

Determiners for Cool Undertone: 
skin has bluish or rosy tint
veins in the wrists have a blue or purple tinge
silver jewelry looks flattering on the skin
doesn’t tan easily

Contour shade should be cool or gray-toned browns so the makeup blends better with natural complexion.
Highlight shade should be light pink to brighten highpoints of the face.

Determiners for Warm Undertone:
skin has yellow or peach shade

veins in the wrists are of green or olive color
gold jewelry looks flattering on the skin
looks best in red and orange

Contour shade should be cool-toned for better sculpting, especially around the perimeter of the face.
Highlight shade should be light yellow to brighten the center of the face as well as the undereye area.

Determiners for Neutral Undertone:
veins in the wrists are looks blue-green
skin neither has bluish, rosy or golden hue
silver and gold jewelry look flattering on the skin

Contour shade could be cool-toned or gray-browns for a sun-kissed look or a subtle sculpt.
Highlight shade could be warm- or cool-toned highlighters for that bright, radiant finish.

 

Now, you’re all set to create that youthful, glowing look! Just don’t forget to remove all that makeup (with our Ultra Nourishing Tonic, may I add) before going to bed to avoid bacteria-causing acne to live in those pores.

Want to maintain healthy skin even under all that makeup? Try our al-natural skin care products!

5 Natural Oils That Are Celebrity Approved

There is nothing about the world of show business or Hollywood that I know about. Except the fact that I want to be in it but because I can’t, I’m just going to marvel at these actors’ beautiful faces and figure out how they achieve it. And in my search, I found out that some of them use – and actually love – natural oils! Not just for making their skin clearer and more glowing but also to make themselves feel good through aromatherapy.

Here are 5 natural oils that celebrities are raving about.

Argan Oil

Argan Oil, also called ‘liquid gold’, is rich in beneficial nutrients like fatty acids and Vitamin E, which help for skin lightening. It also has antioxidant properties beneficial for healing irritated, cracked, damaged or burnt skin. It even has the ability to soften brittle nails, dry hands and hard skin on the feet. Argan Oil is clearly an amazing natural gift. No wonder, celebrities Khloe Kardashian and Emma Stone are all so in love with this oil!

Rosehip Oil

Want to know the secret that Miranda Kerr, Gwyneth Paltrow and Duchess Kate Middleton share to get radiant skin? These three beautiful women use Rosehip Oil to reap its benefits, as its rich with essential fatty acids that keep the skin hydrated and younger-looking, as they also play a key role in injury repair mechanisms. More importantly, this oil has the ability to improve the appearance of many types of scars. So, if you want a glow fir for a royal, add Rosehip Oil to your regimen!

Lavender Essential Oil

A good night sleep has a lot to do with keeping a clear and healthy skin. And you know what induces such amazing rest? Lavender Oil, what else! It helps in making someone have a deep slumber while calming and toning the nerves when used in aromatherapy, as it also relieves stress. When used topically, it can fight bacteria-causing infection that leads to acne. Now, you no longer have to wonder why Jenna Dewan Tatum and Maria Menounos have such great complexions!

Tea Tree Essential Oil

You may not be aware but celebrities also suffer from acne every now again. Just ask pop star Katy Perry, who has had a long-standing battle with this pesky skin condition. But what made things better is the magic she found in Tea Tree Oil. This essential oil can balance hormone secretions and improve blood circulation during aromatherapy. It also has antioxidant properties beneficial in improving the appearance of scars and blemishes. So, make sure to use Tea Tree Oil for a clearer skin and say Swish, Swish Bish to those annoying pimples forever!

Emu Oil

And last, but definitely not the least, is the well-known and incredible Emu Oil. It is touted to be the best natural product to rejuvenate skin cells for a younger-looking complexion because it contains similar components, like essential fatty acids and Vitamins A and E, found in human skin, making it easy to utilized and absorbed. Knowing this information makes it so much easier to attain radiance possessed by Demi Moore, Cindy Crawford and Catherine Zeta-Jones!

Psoriasis Is Not Contagious, Awareness Is

This August, V&M Naturals is one in taking part of Psoriasis Awareness Month, as we have quite a number of clients who suffer from the illness and we want more people to have enough information about it. And, so, in this post we will try to impart as much knowledge about the topic as we can.

According to Mayo Clinic, Psoriasis is a usual skin condition that quickens the skin cells’ life cycle, which causes the rapid build-up of cells on the skin’s surface. These extra skin cells form scales and red patches that are itchy and can even be painful.

Signs and symptoms of Psoriasis are not the same for everyone with common ones including red patches, scaling, dry skin, itching, soreness, thickened nails, and stiff joints. Psoriasis patches can appear in different ways from dandruff-like scaling to major eruptions in large areas.

There are 7 types of Psoriasis:

Plaque psoriasis
Nail psoriasis
Guttate psoriasis
Inverse psoriasis
Pustular psoriasis
Erythrodermic psoriasis
Psoriatic arthritis

Most types of psoriasis go through cycles. They flare for a few weeks or months and then subside for a time or even go into remission.

Although the cause of Psoriasis has not been fully understood, there are a number of triggers that can worsen it. Some of these include infections, skin injury, stress, smoking, heavy alcohol consumption, Vitamin D deficiency, and certain medications.

Meanwhile there are also a number of factors that may increase the risk of developing Psoriasis:

Family history
Viral and bacterial infections
Stress
Obesity
Smoking

Until today, there is still no cure developed for Psoriasis. However, symptoms can be managed through a number of lifestyle measures like moisturizing, quitting smoking, and managing stress. Another thing that has helped so many of our clients that deal with this dilemma is our Emu Oil, which is the only oil that resembles the human skin’s natural oil. Due to this property, it can be utilized in decreasing the appearance of scaling, itching, redness, soreness and red patches. 

We are in no way saying that our product can cure Psoriasis. However, we also believe in the testaments that our clients have given regarding its amazing benefits towards their skins. So, if not a single medication you are trying right now is helping in improving your condition, you can always consider Emu Oil.

The REAL Emu Oil

For those of you who have had the chance to experience the incredible benefits of the Emu Oil, you may have also noticed that the product may change in color, texture or smell whenever you buy a new one. And we’re not going to lie, we see these changes as well. So, why is there no consistency in this specific product, you may be asking? Well, we’ve got the answer for you.

The changes in the Emu Oil vary per batch primarily because of two reasons. First, we harvest this oil from living, thriving emu birds. This means that the physical conditions of the animal have so much to do with the products we release, like their age, breed, size and diet. Even the climate at the time the oil has been harvested can contribute to such changes.

Second reason is the refining process where the Emu Oil can come out in one of three colors: pearl-white, yellow, or brown. The oil comes out pearl-white if the refinery process was done in the perfect way, which is almost always the case. Meanwhile, it comes out yellow or brown if there is some minor disturbance during the refining process (e.g., the refinery has been shut down for 30 minutes at most). However, the change in color does not mean that it has any effect on the Emu Oil’s remarkable benefits. Not even a little one.

We use all-natural ingredients to formulate our products to ensure that we get to produce only the best quality each time. So, rest assured that every item you purchase have gone through a meticulous process to ensure that you get their superior benefits. Because, that’s what we really aim to do: to utilize the world’s natural resources in a bid to encourage people to make the healthy switch.

Let’s Get Natural: 4 Ways to Get Rid of Hormonal Acne

The misconception about acne is that they are a problem only faced by teenagers. But that is so far from the truth because of what we call hormones. These are the bane of many people’s existence, as they cause acne that pester them even on their late 30s. So, don’t be too complacent in thinking you have evaded these nasty little things because some people are just aren’t safe from them.

But you don’t need to worry too much because you have the power to improve this situation through these 4 easy steps.

1. Eat Food That Makes You Feel Good

As our parents have said since we were kids; always eat your greens. These aren’t called healthy food for no reason! They are the ones that give us the vitamins and minerals we need to conquer whatever bad element there is in our body that causes sickness. Or in this case, acne. Some food you can try to add to your diet are probiotic supplements or yogurt with live, active cultures because these help the gut ease inflammation that can start a number of skin problems.

2. Get Physical!

Nobody agrees with you more than I do in the fact that exercise is difficult to do. Especially when getting out of bed in the morning is already a big challenge. But, if you want clear skin, exercise is one of the things you must do! That’s because it boosts circulation, which reduces skin inflammation. Moreover, sweating is a great way to let your pores breathe!

3. Drink an Ocean of Water

Drinking a lot of water is quite possibly the most important part of this 4-easy step. Why? Let me give you a list.

  • Water maintains skin moisture, replenishes skin tissue and increases elasticity – thus making it soft and supple
  • It helps delay signs of aging
  • Enhances skin complexion because it keeps the skin well-hydrated
  • Flushes toxins from the body, which gives you a healthy and glowing skin
  • Enough water intake can combat skin illnesses like psoriasis and eczema

4. Breathe In, Don’t Stress

Stress, as everyone should know, gives no benefit to our body and overall wellness. And just like things that do not contribute to our being, we should exhale them away. Inflamed acne breakouts are commonly caused by overproduction of androgen. And you know what activates the adrenal glands? Stress! So, quit stressing about the things you can’t change and focus on the positive things instead.

You know what else is natural that you can add to these steps? Our Pure Fully Refine Emu Oil, of course! It is the only oil with pH level that resemble that of humans making it perfect for improving, basically, just about any skin condition. So, head now to your nearest V&M Naturals store and experience the power of this miracle worker!
