Skin/Foundation Primers

Hello All.......

Jason here, Entebello's own resident Makeup Artist/Product Junkie. I am here to talk about two of my favorite products. Numero uno is the super fantastic Steven Victor Miracle Serum. This little gem is one of the best makeup primers I have ever used and it was created as a moisture treatment/moisturizer. The serum goes on rich and has an oily slip to it, but absorbes into a smooth satin finish with remarkable line-filling benefits. No odor and you will stay satiny for hours. It can be dabbed-on over makeup for little moisture treatments throughout the day. It is a bit pricy at $150.00 for .05oz, but one drop slides over your entire face and the serum should last 6 months.

Okay, the second of my little babies here is the super-rich Dream Cream from Napoleon Perdis. This is a great primer for clients with very dry skin. It also doubles as a moisturiser and has a rich smooth texture similar to yogurt, more than vaseline, like some rich creams. As with the Steven Victor Miracle Serum, a little goes a long way. Stuffed full of light-diffuzers, antioxidants, and moisturizers it really is a "Dream Cream". At $95. for 1.7oz your paying for quality without breaking the bank. Peace, Jason

Dry, Flakey Chicken Skin...CLUCK OFF!

We had a hard time getting past the packaging. The purple cartoon on the box just doesn't say, "Rockin' Results" to me, but that is exactly what you get with all of DERMAdoctor's products.

Keratosis Pilaris (KP) is a common skin disorder, typified by “chicken skin” bumps on upper arms, thighs, torso, buttocks and occasionally the cheeks. Excess skin forms around individual hair follicles, creating the characteristic minute, rough, grater-like bumps.
KP Duty™ incorporates medically proven technology including ingredients for hydrated and healthy skin. Medically potent levels of Glycolic Acid blends with Urea, the dermatologist recommended humectant, to soften and smooth away the driest roughest skin.
Keratosis Pilaris affects almost 50% of the world’s population. The lotion is even more effective when used in conjunction with KP Duty Scrub.

My husband has been getting thos little bumps on the outside of his thighs, and after using it 2 times last week, they are practically gone. I love the scrub on my elbows and heels too. The glycolics really help to break down and exfoliate any dead skin that has built up.

It is an amazing prep for any self-tanner application as well!

So, get ready to reveal your winter skin without looking like a chicken.

Available in Atlanta at Entebello who is hosting a DERMAdoctor event on February 27th.

Entebello will be offering DERMAdoctor express facials for $25, and the cost of the service can be applied to any DERMAdoctor purchase that day, plus everyone takes home a deluxe sample starter kit.

Turn Your Shower into a Luxurious Steam

We are all in love with these little shower products from Jane Inc. Turn your shower into an invigorating steam room. Simply dampen and place fizzer out of direct water contact and watch it work with the steam of the shower to release powerful, head-clearing, detoxifying vapors. Available in 3 scents: Relaxing Lavender, Invigorating Peppermint, and our favorite...Eucalyptus.

Another fabulous product from Jane, Inc are the Shower Mists. Instantly turn your shower or bath into a revitalizing steam room! Just one spray of this highly concentrated essential oil will do the job. Men as well as women love this product. Used by some of the top hotels and spas in the country! I have horrible sinus problems, and I look forward to my shower so much now that I have been using Jane's Eucalyptus Shower Mist. Every day is like I am at The Four Seasons or Ritz-Carlton spa.

The mists are available in the same fragrances as the Shower Fizzers, so whether you want to relax, a pick-me-up, or just to clear your head. One of these will definitely fit your mood.

Both are available in Atlanta at Entebello Modern Apothecary & Spa . Fizzers are $6 each or 3 for $15, and the mists are $15 each or all 3 for $40.

I feel like St. Barth's

I am sooo ready for a beachy vacation, but it just isn't happening this winter. I do love to look like I just got back from St. Barth's though, and with the help of Carita's fabulous self-tanning creams I can look like I just got off my own private charter.

These creams are highly moisturizing, turn you the most fabulous golden shade of TAN, not orange, and don't have any of the gross smell.

If you aren't just dreaming of a pina colada in paradise, but actually going then Carita's Sun Care line is a must. The repairing creams for hair and skin, even a sunblock specific to the eye area are truley the best you will find. With the dollar so bad, you might as well stock up before you jet off. It really is less expensive to buy it here than abroad right now with the conversion so bad!

Available on Atlanta on ly at Entebello Modern Apothecary & Spa.

Chapped Lips

One of my biggest woes of winter is chapped lips. It never fails that every year when the weather gets cool and dry I get a horrible case. No matter how much water I drink or what lip balm I use, it hurts to smile, eat, talk, or smooch.

Finally the search for a solution is over. I am obsessed with Nuxe Reve de Miele Honey Lip Balm. It is instantly soothing, feels fabulous, stays for hours, can be worn under a gloss or lipstick, and doesn't have that catch-22 of making the situation worse.

Their hand cream is fabulous as well, and the sleek, slim tube fits perfectly in a purse or your 311 ziplock bag.

First-time blogger

So, as the title suggests I am a first-time blogger, and this is my first posting!

As the owner of Entebello Modern Apothecary & Spa, I have so many customers that come in wanting to know what our favorites are or what is new, that I decided to post them.

My hair is getting the winter doldrums...dry ends, fly-aways, and overall dullness. I immediately went to Leonor Greyl's Mask Orchidee. This is a fabulous nourishing mask to add moisture to the lengthes of your hair without weighing it down or making it greasy. This conditioning mask is formulated with plant lipids that strengthen the hair, film-forming silk proteins for unparalleled shine and botanical oils to increase hair flexibility. This mask works like a genuine nourishing, detangling and softening treatment for very curly and or frizzy hair. Blow drying is made easier and curls are more flexible.
