Deodorant at Bedtime – Secret Clinical Strength Deodorant Antiperspirant Review

beautytipsbyleeanneLeave a comment

Hi welcome back to Beauty Tips By Leeanne. Today I’m going to be reviewing one of my favorite deodorants,  Secret Clinical Strength Invisible Solid Women’s Antiperspirant & Deodorant. I’m going to be giving you some information that you probably were not aware of on how to  apply your deodorant or anti-antiperspirant (I personally don’t perspire… just kidding!) To make your deodorant more effective especially if you do perspire, or glisten a lot, you want to apply your deodorant at bedtime. You say why should I apply my deodorant at bedtime? Well how deodorants and antiperspirants work, is that they actually block your sweat glands and you want to  give them at least four hours to start working.  So if you put it on at bedtime that has given you eight hours to block those glands.  That is the tip that I learned from one of the dermatologist that I worked for Dr. Harry Saperstein and he would recommend that any deodorant was put on at bedtime. You  can reapply in the morning if you wish if you’re feeling that you don’t want to risk smelling or having ,you know, big underarm stains from perspiring. The Secret Clinical Strength Deodorant Antiperspirant for women gives you 24 hour protection.

The  waterproof version also is also amazing. You can go swimming and you can go running and feel protected. The Secret Clinical Strength Invisible Solid Women’s Antiperspirant & Deodorant is available on Amazon.com and at your favorite drug store. Thanks for tuning in – Leeanne

Aquaphor Healing Ointment Review

beautytipsbyleeanneLeave a comment

Thanks for tuning in to Beauty Tip By Leeanne. Today I’m going to be reviewing a great product for the winter weather. It’s called Aquaphor Healing Ointment and it can be used for a number of medicinal purposes. It’s great if you have eczema, if you have dry cracked lips, or if you had any sort of a chemical peel or laser peel, this product can be used for that as well. What I love about this product is that it’s simple to use and is non-comedogenic. You is that you can use it many many times over and over as you need it. It’s  perfect for people in the winter who ski, in windy areas where they have had a windburn, or sunburn as well. It’s a very common very soothing product.

Just apply a small amount on your finger and apply to the lips .  This works great as a substitute for Chap-stick. (this works great for children) . This product can be used a thousand times a day. It’s petroleum-based product and the difference between using this on your lips vs. Chap-stick, or some sort of lip balm , is those products have wax in them. So, as you continue to lick your lips they continue to dry your lips. Those products don’t like  like Aquaphor. If you have dry cracked hands it’s great to put this on it bedtime and also great to put it on in the morning.  It is a little bit greasy but if you wash your hands throughout the day the product actually stays on.  You can use it on minor cuts, burns, and scrapes. It is a great post fraxel, post CO2 laser, or if you do a deep chemical peel like  TCA or jasmer’s, this can be applied to help expedite the healing process. I hope this is a great tip for you.

All Day Lip Color – Rimmel London Provocalips Review

beautytipsbyleeanneLeave a comment


Welcome back to Beauty Tips by Leeanne. Today I’m going to be reviewing one of my favorite over the counter lip stains. They are by Rimmel London and they come in a number of  colors. What I love about these products is, as I’m a woman on the go, I wear lipstick every single day and I don’t have time to reapply very often. I work in a busy medical practice and I cannot stop during the day and reapply my lipstick 5000 times. So the lipsstick that I’m wearing on me today I applied at 7 o’clock in the morning!

Rimmel London Lip Stain comes with applicators on each side on the stick. One side has the lip stain and the other side is the lip gloss. You first apply the lip stain. Once you are done,  you need to wait about 2 minutes for it to set. Once the lipstick has set, then you can apply your gloss. That’s all you need throughout the day. You do not need to reapply your color! If your lips are dry from talking as mine are because if I talk a lot, I just  slap more gloss on and my lips look beautiful and refreshed. I can drink water coffee all day long and have lunch and still my lipstick stays on. I am coming to you tonight at 7 p.m. so that means my lipstick has been on for 12 hours! I have tried every single the stain from $4 to $50 this is available and this is the best. It’s available on amazon, at your drug store for $8 there are other brands out there that are $30 and $40 that do not last as long as this brand by Rimmel London. Thanks for tuning in – Leeanne

What you do is you take the It Cosmetic special brush, swirl it, and then you just tap it into place. You can use this over your make up as the finishing touch, or you can just use it on skin that you just applied sunscreen for.

Thayers Witch Hazel Toner

Featured beautytipsbyleeanneLeave a comment

Hi, today I’m going to be reviewing one of my favorite over the counter line of products called Thayers Witch Hazel Toner. What is so great about  Thayers  is that they are certified organic and they are still a family-owned farm in Connecticut that has been in business since 1847. The Aloe Vera version has anti-inflammatory properties and the Rose-Petal  version  helps reduces redness.  Both are packed full of antioxidants  and can help build collagen.

These products are alcohol-free, paraben-free, gluten-free and you can use them on yourself and all your loved ones. Throughout the day when I am feeling like I need a  skin refresher, I apply some to a cosmetic pad or  into a spritzer and  apply it on my face. One of the most important things about these products is  not only their  antimicrobial, anti-fungal and anti-aging properties, but it contains  witch hazel which is one of the only proven products through the test of time that can actually reduce skin pore size.

I use Rose-Petal in the morning instead of washing. I just put  on a little and freshen up my face. I’ll use a lavender after cleansing before I apply my Anti-aging products at bedtime. The lavender calms your skin as it helps reduce redness but  it also has a physiological calming effect. There’s also has a lemon witch hazel version which is good to reduce freckles brown spots.  I highly recommend all three of these products. They are available over the counter or on Amazon.com.   Thanks for tuning in – Leeanne
