Just Add Glam

the San Francisco lifestyle blog by JENNIFER HENRY-NOVICH

February 7, 2014 / BEAUTY, LIFESTYLE, WELLNESS

what i’m loving lately

Organic Shimmer SpaI love the look of long lashes and trying out the latest ‘must buy’ mascara but I recently decided to go for a set of eyelash extensions at Organic Shimmer in San Francisco.  I wanted to have that beauty pop at all times, because even without eye makeup the lashes just make you look so put together.  The experience at Organic Shimmer was a dream–I curled up under a warm, fuzzy blanket, placed rejuvenating pads under my eyes, and took a nap for the two hour application (refills only take 45 minutes!).  I woke up refreshed (the nap was much needed after a 100 hour work week…) and had the most fantastic lashes to bat around San Francisco.  If you haven’t tried lash extensions yet…I highly recommend it as a new lash addict!

Project JuiceA few months back I did a three day juice cleanse (read all about it here) and to kick off my February with a bang… I opted to try another juice cleanse…but only for 1 day.  My friend Emily recommended Project Juice and I signed up for a next day delivery.  I love that the juices are all organic and they have the best names (How cute is Swizz Beets?!?).  If you’re in San Francisco, these juices are great for a refreshing dose of veggies…you need to get your hands on some!

Nomad Charge KeyMy brother sent me a Nomad charge key for Christmas (a little late, Andrew??) and I never thought I’d be so obsessed with a cell phone charger.  This little charger can fit on your key ring so that you’re always with a charger–and that’s something this social media addict loves!  True story–I used my little Nomad charger at a restaurant by plugging my phone into the bar’s TV, any USB port works!

Since I’m especially obsessed with my charger I wanted to share the love and the Nomad team is graciously offering four Nomad charge keys / charge cards for four lucky Just Add Glam readers.  Enter via as many methods as you’d like below! Charge keys / cards are available for iPhone 4/4s/5/5s and Micro USB.  Giveaway ends on February 15th, 2014, good luck!

    Permanent eyelash extensions are definitely the way to go! A lot of those mascaras are rough on the skin and cause rashes and break outs, I think it’s way easier to get your lashes touched up once a month than to go through the hassle of additional make up. Plus, you can take a swim in a Vegas pool and your lashes come out looking just as fabulous as they did going in!

    I’m not sure if my girlfriend is aware of eyelash extensions, but I already know she would want them. Curious, around how much would I need to be prepared to spend to get her something like this? We’re in the OC – would you recommend a place?

    I also joined the raffle by the way. If only you knew how often I would need that…

      Hi Mark!

      Your girlfriend would LOVE them, they are a lot of fun and look great. I don’t know of any salons in the OC but here is the link to Organic Shimmer where I got mine done.. I would look for a place with comparable pricing.

      Good luck on the Nomad charge key giveaway! Those little things are amazing!

      xoxo

        I almost got an appointment for her for Valentine’s, but I realized the best quality extensions would be made from mink. I wouldn’t want to invade her morals; yet I wouldn’t want to get average quality either. Or am I mistaken in either case?

        Also, have the winners of the raffle been notified? I’m dying for one of these.

I think about this ALL. THE. TIME. ✨ I think about this ALL. THE. TIME. ✨
✨ Harrison Finnley Michaels 12/8/2019 ✨ Three ✨ Harrison Finnley Michaels 12/8/2019 ✨
Three months with this little guy and our worlds are rocked. He’s gone from just opening his eyes to rolling over, pushing himself up, grabbing at toys (and my phone as I type this out). He loves to laugh and talk in his baby language all day long 🤣 and sleeps all through the night 🙌🏼 How did we get so blessed with him?! @kmichaels216
Wedding Bells 💍 We are finally diving into some Wedding Bells 💍
We are finally diving into some wedding planning after our engagement last year and not going to lie, it’s overwhelming! We are super laid back and are looking for something small to celebrate. For me, this day isn’t about a big, fancy dress, or hundreds of guests to entertain. It’s about spending time with Kevin and I together committing our lives to one another. I was recommended to check out @shutterfly’s The Wedding Shop and mocked up an invite in this beautiful botanical print perfectly personalized to us and our style. Love our custom candle (smells so good!) and champagne flutes too! Check out my stories for more behind the scenes of unpacking our wedding items and some close ups! #MyShutterfly (ad)
CATCHING UP, what do you have going on this week? CATCHING UP, what do you have going on this week?
• This morning I had an eye exam to check my contacts / glasses Rx. I shared new glasses on Stories but turns out the Rx was wrong in them. I’m TRYING to wear my glasses more around the house and splurged on a pair from @ysl hoping that would help me do it 🤣🤓
• I haven’t been a big concealer wearer but I’ve been testing out the @urbandecaycosmetics naked concealer and have been liking how light it feels on my skin (I’m wearing it here, dress is new from @urbanoutfitters!)
• A work-related project this week—I’m trying to get my inbox of 700 emails down to zero. My problem is that I’ll get an email with some great piece of info in it and think “oh this is great! I can’t work on this right now but I’ll save for when I can” and I mark it unread. Well over time that has added up to 700 😬 I’m thinking of tackling it by sorting through and noting down whatever idea it is in my notebook (paper planner for LIFE! 📒) to reference it and have them all in one place. Maybe this will work!
• I’m currently sitting here watching this little baby sleep and the whole “I want to eat this baby” thing is SO REAL. What is it about babies where it makes us say that?!? He loves his @bibs_usa and @mushie_co!
• I’m considering cutting 3-4 inches from my hair....but here’s the kicker...I have this weird urge to DO IT MYSELF. Maybe I don’t want to put it off until I can get an appointment but I just want to cut it now. Please you guys, talk me out of doing this with scissors in the bathroom 🤣✂️
• Kevin and I have been binge watching @abcscandal and it’s SO ADDICTING. If you haven’t watched it, join us on Netflix but don’t blame me when you’re 2 episodes past your bedtime 😜 we are currently on season 4 of 7!
• WHAT ARE YOU UP TO THIS WEEK???
NEW MOM FASHION AND BEAUTY HACKS: 💁🏼‍♀️
1️⃣ Style your hair once ride that beautiful hair through the week with minimal effort. I use the @t3micro curling wand on day 1 fresh hair to put a little curl in it. On days 2-4 I use dry shampoo—my favorite is @livingproofinc to soak up oil, and then on days 5+ when dry shampoo doesn’t cut it anymore I throw on a cute beanie
2️⃣ Still trying to “bounce back” (whatever that means...) after baby? Same mama, same. @spanx leather-look leggings suck it all in and help as a postpartum support during healing. Win win!
3️⃣ Duster coats are the ONLY thing I want to wear. Not only do they keep you cozy as we wait for spring, but having pockets is NECESSARY for me. Phone in one, pacifier in another, and whatever other random things I need to bring with me when my arms are full with a baby
4️⃣ Lots of undereye concealer for that 8 hours of sleep look. @tartecosmetics shape tape is a favorite but I’ve been testing out @urbandecaycosmetics stay naked concealer and really like it for more natural coverage
MAMAS, WEIGH IN: What are you mom fashion and beauty hacks?! #newmomhacks
Our morning walk ritual ☺️ It’s still been a Our morning walk ritual ☺️
It’s still been a bit chilly out in the mornings but that doesn’t stop us from bundling up (in matching hats no less!) and going for a walk around our neighborhood. Baby carrying is a wonderful thing once you get the hang of it! I love how it gives you a bit of a workout with the added weight of a baby (Harrison is 11lbs now!) and gives them a chance to look around with a different view than the stroller. I can’t wait until he’s big enough to be front facing and then he can really look out at the world. I’ve been using the @nuna_usa @potterybarnkids CUDL carrier (this fabric is the broken arrow caviar) and my favorite feature are the magnetic clips that automatically snap into place to hold baby snugly. #lovemypbk
