A New Hi-Tech Beauty Tool to Love: Conture.

SPONSORED

You know I am always looking for the latest in cutting edge beauty tools and treatments. Well, I've found one and it's unlike any other that I've ever tried before. This brand new device is called Conture and it is doing so much to change my skin for the better. In fact, it's clinically proven to work!

Conture is a Kinetic Skin Toning System similar to the technology used by professionals in clinics and med-spas who charge a lot for the service. What it does is "wake up" the skin by safely lifting and releasing it with a specialized vacuum system. It does so with isometric compression combined with ultra-low frequency sonic vibrations to gently stimulate and tone the skin.

The Conture Kinetic Skin Toning System is really a device unlike any other I have ever experienced. The device performs various little suctions as I move it across my face, jawline and neck. It's these compressions that are stimulating the skin, similar to a skin massage. It is safe, painless and non-invasive.

Conture is very easy to use. A typical treatment takes two - three minutes in each zone. I have been targeting my jawline, jowls and cheeks. There are three settings on the device; Face, Mild and Neck. I use the Face setting and press the cup firmly against the skin until there is a seal, slowly glide the device in an upward motion and let the device do the work. It sort of feels like something suckling on the skin.

The results are impressive; my skin is not only glowing, more-so than ever before, it is toned, more firm and plump looking. As soon as I complete a treatment, my skin is immediately glowing and super soft and smooth. I swear that is looks lifted in the areas that I have been targeting. Overall, signs of aging are greatly improved and my skin just looks healthier and better than it has in a really long time. I've only been using Conture for about three weeks and once a day, but it's sort of addicting because the results are so immediate. I'm going to be making it a part of my daily routine to even further better my results.

As I said, Conture has been clinically shown to deliver results. The percentage of subjects with clinical improvements are as follows:

• 90% Saw an improvement in Radiance & Luminosity
• 84% Saw an improvement in Face & Neck Texture, Smoothness & Evenness
• 81% Saw a Lift in Facial Skin
• 78% Saw an improvement in Crow's Feet, Fine Lines & Wrinkles
• 78% Saw an improvement in Facial Firmness

Conture Kinetic Skin Toning System comes complete with everything that you need to improve your skin. The system includes the device, charging cord, two focus heads, directions, the serum that must be used with the device plus a really nice AM Lotion and PM Creme to complete your skin care regimen. Conture helps to aid in skin product absorption and these products were made to work directly with the device.

Currently Obsessed: Cover FX Custom Infusion Drops.

You know when you are sticking to your beauty routine but you feel like something is missing but you can't quite put your finger on it? Well, that is probably due to the fact that your skins needs change from one day to the next. One day is it dull and lackluster, another day it is super dry.  It's nearly impossible to change out your products everyday unless you have a beauty closet stocked with every product imaginable. That's where the new Cover FX Custom Infusion Drops come in. These serum-like drops add a concentrated boost of essential oils and vitamins to whatever products you're already using to create a customized solution based upon your skins needs.

I'm pretty much obsessed with these Custom Infusion Drops and I have honestly been using a different one each day depending on what I feel like my skins concerns are. There are four different formulas, which I am going to describe below. I've also been known to mix two different drops in at the same time — you'll know why when you see the descriptions below.

Here are the four Custom Infusion Drops targeted formulas:

A + Jasmine: Anti-Aging - These Drops are enriched with Vitamin A to support natural cell turnover. This will help to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time no matter what type of other treatment product you are using. The Jasmine oil helps boost skin hydration.

C + Lemongrass: Radiance - These Drops contain Lemongrass to help tone the skin along with Vitamin C (which you know I love) to help brighten dull skin.

E + Chamomile: Calming - These Drops contain Vitamin E and Chamomile which are both comforting ingredients to help nourish and sooth the skin.

F + Neroli: Hydrating - With concentrated Vitamin F, Neroli oil and Sodium Hyaluronate, these Drops help the skin to better hold onto moisture and improve its' elasticity.

The Custom Infusion Drops are easy to use. Simply put whatever skin care product you are going to use (moisturizer, serum, oil, etc.) into the palm of your hand, drop in one Custom Infusion Drop, mix with your fingertip and apply as usual. This will give you a customized and transformed treatment product.

As I am obviously quite concerned with aging, I tend to use the A + Drops often. I usually add this Custom Infusion Drop into whatever night cream I am using. I use the F + Drop probably the most because I'm all about the extra added moisture and skin plumping effect that I get from this Custom Infusion Drop. I like mixing both of these at night, but use the F + Drop on it's own during the day a lot as well. When I am lacking on the sleep, I use the C + Drops and when my skin is stressed (after I use a beauty tool or after a peel or facial) I mix in the E + Drops.

Buy the Custom Infusion Drops at coverfx.com and Sephora. Each bottle sells for $48.

How I Jump-Start My Day with Elizabeth Arden SUPERSTART.

Do you have a daily routine? My days are always different, except for my mornings — those need to stay somewhat the same in order for me to stay on track. When I am on track, I have a better outlook and a better day overall. I like to be the first one up in my busy home so I can get a jump-start on my day while there is still some peace and quiet to be had.

My early morning usually starts with a quick walk. I'm not looking for a ton of exercise first thing in the morning; it's more about getting outside for some fresh air and getting my heart pumping. I usually take this time to go over my plans for the day in my head, so when I get back home I am ready to take it on. As soon as I am home, I usually turn on the early morning news, make a cup of tea and take a look at my planner to see if I forgot anything important for the day. Once I feel that I am awake (yes, it takes time), I start waking up the rest of the house and get myself presentable for the day.

My shower time is usually short as there are lunches to be made and kids to get off to school, so this is where a smart daily routine is essential. Keeping a beauty routine to a minimum with effective products is key.

I will not sacrifice when it comes to skin care though. One product that I have added to my daily routine that has been super beneficial is Elizabeth Arden SUPERSTART Skin Renewal Booster. Not only has this skin renewal booster helped to jump-start my day, but SUPERSTART boosts the results of my entire beauty regimen.

SUPERSTART Skin Renewal Booster actually helps to boost the skin's ability to repair and renew by working with the rest of my skincare products. By optimizing skin’s surface layer, it ensures the skin is more responsive to all of the products in my regimen. It boosts natural defenses and makes products work harder so that my skincare delivers stronger results. Simply put, SUPERSTART boosts the effectiveness of other skincare products.

I use SUPERSTART every morning and apply it before my serum and moisturizer. It feels super smooth as it glides on over my skin. It feels almost like a primer as it sinks in, which it does immediately. My skin feels instantly smoother as soon as it is applied. I can honestly say that my face feels moisturized longer than when I don't use it so I know it is working.
