Skincare Galore!

This week I was fortunate enough to attend the Live Love Spa Splash event at the Hyatt regency in Century City.

This event was full of skincare brands teaching us about their products and sharing their passion for skincare and innovative new ways to protect our skin.

I'm a huge advocate for taking care of your skin, it's the largest organ in our body and the one everyone sees! You only get one, take care of it!

I love learning about new products and meeting the vendors to get first hand knowledge of how their products work.

Jindilli was by far the newest product on the market and a very small operation, but I love that!

I had never actually used Moracconoil before, but after chatting with the representative, I can't wait to try the new line of body care products coming out soon!



You know me and my SPF, was very interested in COOLA Suncare.

I was sent home with quite a bit of products to test out! 
Part of my job as a beauty blogger is to test out as much as possible so I can share my reviews with you guys. I was not expecting to be able to test so many of these brands! I have got my work cut out for me the next few months. 

Below are all the vendors that were at the event, a little about them, and my first impression when meeting them. 

HydraFacial: 
"The only hydradermabrasion procedure that communes cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration & antioxidant protection simultaneously, resulting in clearer, more beautiful skin with no discomfort or downtime."

I had this done on my hand and I was impressed with the difference in texture and brightness after a quick 5min session. 

Moroccanoil:
"A luxurious line of professional hair care & body products and services that create a unique head to toe experience." 

Many of you must have heard of Moroccanoil and/or used their hair products, but I was impressed with the body care that they have coming out, so keep an eye out!

Aesthetic Ambassadore:
They had brow & lash conditioners that I was VERY interested in. I was able to take home a lash conditioner and I'm testing this baby out already!

Trophy Skin:
"Designs and develops cutting edge home- use skincare tools that provide effective and affordable, dermatologist- quality skincare treatments."

Trophy skin had a microdermabrasion system that I was in awe over. I have never used a microdermabrasion kit at home and I'm dying to try one out. 

PrAna:
"Is a lifestyle brand that draws its name from the ancient Sanskrit word for breath, life, and vitality of the spirit. The PrAna team creates mindfully-designed, purposeful and stylish apparel for free spirited people to pursue their passions."

I was very intrigued with PrAna and hope to try out some of their active wear as I get fit on my 4 weak beginners calendar. Watch this video to learn more. 

COOLA Suncare:
"Offers 3 distinct lines of certified organic sun protection, including their new pan UV line and recently reformulated mineral and Classic collections."

I'm a HUGE SPF fanatic, so I was excited to speak with COOLA and learn more about this awesome company. 

Jindilli:
"A family-owned Australian company who create beautiful skin care products for spas from the cold- pressed macadamias grown sustainably on their Australian farms. Pure Macadamia Oil is remarkably effective on aging skin, making Jindilli perfect for spa's."

By far the sweets folks I met and the most interesting. I love the company's structure and how they are fully a sustainable product. 

Clarisonic: 
"The sonic technology behind more beautiful skin."

I'm sure you all know what a Clarisonic is, but I got to take a look at the new version launching soon! It actually talks to the brush and home base so it will remind you to change brush heads, as well as convert to body and foot!

Knesko Skin:
"A holistic luxury skincare line that is available in two revitalizing collections- Diamond Radiance & Nanogold Repair."

This company makes the most beautiful, luxurious, and wonderful sheet masks and eye masks with actual GOLD AND DIAMONDS! I mean WOW! They sent me home with samples of each so I can't wait to give them a try!

Circadia:
"Their philosophy of skincare is centered on the body's circadian rhythms, defending from environmental insult during the day, and stimulating repair mechanisms during sleep. Circadia's products utilize paraben-free preservative systems, multitude of cutting edge ingredient technologies and specialty items for comprehensive treatment of aging skin, pigmentation disorders, scene and rosacea. 

I didn't get to speak to much with the vendor on this one, but I did get a day cream to try. Will keep you posted. 

HydroPeptide:
"is an anti-aging line notable for 7 facials and 17 retail products featuring VLR technology- a variety of specific peptides, applied at their active levels, delivered repeatedly to targeted areas in the skin for maximum results."

I have a plumping gloss and serum to try out. 

The Comphy Co.:
"They've set out to design, manufacture and sell truly exceptional spa bedding."

Seriously the softest sheets I've ever touched! I got to take home a pillow case and if my husband approves, I'll be getting us a full set of sheets. I love that they are moisture wicking (someone radiates heat when he sleeps). They also are just so soft and luxurious, but totally affordable and easy to care for too. 

Vita Liberata:
"A luxury Irish tanning and skincare brand that created the world's first odorless and non-toxic self tan collection."

I AM SOLD! I've seen this brand around a bit, but with self tanners you just never know. This self tanner is ACTUALLY odorless and they have a formulation that can be washed off after 1, 2, or 3 hours depending on how tan you want to look. I got to take home the quick formula to try out all over my body, which will come in handy as soon as Fall fully approaches. 

Travertine Spa Collection:
"luxury lifestyle line of botanical body care."

This company is located in Orange County, my home town and I love that the ingredients are very basic. The new scent smells divine and does not over power you at all.  The owner offered for me to come down and have my own signature scent made, which I'll definitely be taking him up on. 

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas:
"is a unique luxury resort & casino featuring residential-styled living spaces with private terraces."

My husband and I LOVE The Cosmopolitan! It's seriously one of our favorite hotels in Las Vegas and if you watch my youtube channel or vlog channel you know we go there a lot!

What brands are you most interested in? What should I try out first? Love to hear your thoughts!
