Beyonce Beauty for Every Budget
Usually I’m humble, right now I don’t choose
You could leave with me or you can have the blues
Some call it arrogant, I call it confident
You decide when you find on what I’m working with
“D” I know I’m killing you with them legs
Better yet them thighs
Matter a fact it’s my smile or maybe my eyes
Boy you a site to see, kind of something like me
It’s too big, it’s too wide
It’s too strong, it won’t fit
It’s too much, It’s too tough
I talk like this ’cause I can back it up
I got a big ego, such a huge ego
But he love my big ego, it’s too much
I walk like this ’cause I can back it up…
In honor of my girl Bey (Beyonce for those who don’t know her like I do in my mind), I dedicate this post to her- Sasha fierce- who tore up Madison Square Garden last night! I calculated that it would take me 3 red bulls every 30 minutes to match her energy and intensity during one of her concerts- that girl is amazing!
While we can’t all sing like Beyonce, it is not impossible to match her radiant complexion! One of her secret weapons is Natura Bisse Diamond Cream, “I put this on every morning and every night,” she told InStyle magazine. Diamonds are certainly a girls best friend, especially if you have $265 to drop on a 1.7 ounces of a cream that firms, lifts, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, restores softness and suppleness, helps even out your complexion, increases luminosity all while feeling silky smooth and uber lux!
It sounds well and good, but if you don’t have $265 or just are not willing to spend that much on a facial cream, I’m going to let you in on a little secret- you don’t have to! Don’t get me wrong, it’s hard to recreate the luxury experience that you get when using a $265 cream but you can get similar end results for a fraction of the price!
Dior Capture Totale Multi-Perfection Creme ($125)- The name says it all, Capute Totale can do all of the things that Naturea Bisse Diamond Cream can do but for less money! “Powered” by Longonza, a revitalizing plant fond only in Madagascar, Capture Totale will bring your skin back to life! Fyi, it also contains peptides and other ingredients for firming and lifting- Longonza has a nice story but it’s not doing the work all alone!
Bliss Youth As We Know It ($79)- If you’re looking for firmer skin that retains more moisture, fewer dark spots, reduced fine lines and wrinkles and increased luminescence for less than $100- look no further because this is it! Youth As We Know It contains a cocktail of high tech and botanical ingredients for instant and long term benefits. Fyi, for better results, I always formulate with ingredient cocktails. There are so many different things going on (many modes of action) that you need to address each one on some level for maximum efficacy.
Boots No7 Lifting and Firming Day Cream ($19.99)- This little gem can be found in your local Target store! For less than twenty bucks you can get the some of the same end results of Natura Bisse (minus the lux factor)- you can’t beat that! It evens out your skin tone and fades dark spots with instant tightening- need I say more?
