 FEATURED GUEST:
Winter Beauty Advice
from Julie Clevering Morgan,
make-up artist to the stars...
Make-up Tricks for Winter Dry Skin
1. Winter skin dreams of exfoliation and ample hydration, but so do your lips! Don't forget them!
Tip: After applying make-up, place a bit of face cream between your hands and rub them together to warm up the cream....then press this warmed face cream onto your cheek bones for a hydrated glow!
2. Foundation primer is very helpful to create long-lasting even skin tone. On some clients, I use tinted moisturizer followed by stick foundation applied by brush. This evens skin tone where needed. I love Shu- Uemura #18 Goat Hair foundation brush.
Tip: Circulating the foundation brush over the skin to give the skin a little massage and stimulates the blood flow. You will see radiant skin.
3. As we layer our clothing in the winter, layer your make-up!
Tip: Use a cream blush first and then a sweep of powder blush to keep your make-up fresh. You will look as if you've been on the slopes all day.

Integrative Beauty
Dr. Michelle Yagoda,
NYC Facial Plastic Surgeon
& BeautyScoop Co-Founder
Q: What is 'true' beauty?Is it the right shade of lipstick, the most beautiful nasal tip or the perfect skinny jeans?
A: 'True' beauty is integrative beauty, that is the combination of looking, feeling and being beautiful.
Q: Isn't looking beautiful, really the only necessary component?
A: No! How many perfect noses do we see on emaciated and lifeless women? Looking beautiful is important~but it is only one component of integrative beauty. As a facial plastic surgeon for more than 15 years, I certainly understand the importance of looking beautiful. A refined and straight nose, an angular neck and jawline, youthful eyes and a relaxed brow can augment one's beauty. Non-surgical interventions, can improve skin texture and color, reduce scars, eliminate wrinkles and more. But well-executed surgery and expertly performed procedures can not provide the glowing skin, shiny hair and healthy nails that reflects inner health and wellness. Looking beautiful is only one necessary component of integrative beauty.
Q: How does a woman feel beautiful? Does she need a mirror for this?
A: In order to feel beautiful, a woman does not need a mirror! She needs to eat a healthy diet, be well-rested and keep well-hydrated. She will likely find exercise, yoga and meditation to be useful methods to increase her vitality and reduce stress. Women who are healthy and fit tends to look and feel more beautiful.
Q: Is there a secret to being beautiful~it seems complicated...?
A: Perhaps this component of integrative beauty is most difficult to achieve. Simply, this translates into happiness and radiance. Healthy and balanced relationships anchor us to our loved ones. Spirituality may connect us to our world at large. When we broaden our perspectives, and focus on happiness, we nuture ourselves and this allows us to be beautiful.
