Freeze 24-7 Introduces Mineral Makeup; Launch Event at Henri Bendel

Freeze 24-7 is hosting a day of makeovers at Henri Bendel in NYC on Monday, April 6th to celebrate the launch of the new Freeze 24-7 Mineral Makeup Collection.  There will be complimentary makeovers, skincare consultations and mini-facials.  In addition, receive a free sampler of Freeze 24-7 products with a $75 purchase.

While you're there, check out the new Freeze 24-7 Minerals Freeze & Glow Basics Kit ($85) which includes:

• 2 Foundation Shades with SPF 18
• 1 Bronze-to-Glow
• 1 Cheeky Highlighter
• 1 Total Face Brush
• 1 Fix-It Brush

What sets the Freeze 24-7 Mineral Makeup apart is the use of Vita-Nutriplex Technology, which combines the body's natural muscle-relaxing agent GABA with Vitamin C Ester, Hyaluronic Acid, Soybean Extract and SPF 18 to hydrate and offer anti-aging skincare benefits.  Those benefits include a 96% reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pores, sun spots and skin discolorations.

I've been using the Freeze 24-7 & Glow Basics Kit in the Fair/Light Shade (also available in Medium and Medium Tan) and so far, really like it.  It hasn't irritated my skin at all and has provided good coverage.  I've mixed the 2 foundation colors for a "custom blend" shade and really like the Bronze to Glow and Cheeky Highlighter.  If you don't have brushes, the brushes in the kit are adequate, but I prefer to use my own Kabuki Brush for mineral makeup. 

I haven't noticed the anti-aging benefits at this point; it's too early.  But any extra skincare benefits that you get from a mineral makeup are a bonus to me. 

Freeze 24-7 Mineral Makeup is available at www.freeze247.com, Henri Bendel, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, beauty.com and other fine retailers.

I've recently been using the new Eyecing Fatigue Fighting Eye Cream and really like it.  Eyecing helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles in the eye area. I love that when you apply it, you immediately feel a cooling sensation.  But of course, I demand more than just sensory relief when I use an eye cream. Eyecing also has high tech ingredients.  There are peptides to protect, Hydroptix-171 Youth Boosting Complex, which is a time release formula to keep eyes looking bright, Dermaxyl--a proven ingredient to help stimulate cell turnover and repair, Kombuchka, which brightens and tightens and helps with crow's feet.  All in all, Eyecing Fatigue Fighting Eye Cream is an excellent eye cream.

Freeze 24•7's IceCrystals Anti-Aging Prep & Polish and IceCream Double Scoop Moisturizer...Ice, Ice, baby!

Freeze 24•7's IceCrystals Anti-Aging Prep & Polish is a creamy exfoliating treatment that will polish your skin and leave it tingling, to boot.   If you have fine lines, blemishes, hyperpigmentation, or as part of an anti-aging skincare regimen, exfoliating is an essential component.  Finding one with the right consistency and texture is key.  IceCrystals Anti-Aging Prep & Polish uses new technology to produce very fine, uniformly shaped polishing crystals (magnesium oxide) that are encapsulated in a silicone emulsion so as not to irritate skin.  There are tiny green jojoba microbeads that massage skin.  And basil oil to cool, tone and add an herbal fragrance to your experience.  It's a very unique sensation; unlike other exfoliants I've used.  With continued use, Freeze 24•7's clinincal studies showed reductions in age spots, improvements in skin texture, reduction in sebum (oil) content and reduction in appearance of scars.  I used the IceCrystals product every other night for several weeks and liked it more every time I used it.  IceCrystals Anti-Aging Prep & Polish retails for $65.

I also tried the IceCream Double Scoop Intensive Anti-Aging Moisturizer, which I applied directly after using the IceCrystals product.  This is another high-tech product, that not only feels incredible on your skin, but it works.  Here's the 411.  You know I like my products to contain ingredients that deliver results. IceCream Double Scoop Moisturizer contains a combination of anti-oxidants (green tea); argirelene, which, over time, has been proved to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; Myoxinol with Hibiscus Protein seeds, which work to relax muscle cell contraction and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkes; L-Carnosine-another antioxidant that has protective properties against cellular damage.  That's a lot of anti-aging fighters in a rich cream that doesn't feel heavy on your skin.  Expect to see firming of the skin and relaxing of expression line formation.  Don't like those "parentheses" forming on either side of your nose and mouth?  or the dreaded "11"s on your forehead? This is a product that, over time, can work to minimize them.  IceCream Double Scoop Intensive Anti-Aging Moisturizer retails at $105.

Bottom line:  these products are technologically advanced and they work.  Freeze 24•7 products are available at Henri Bendel, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales and other retails including select Bath & Body Works stores.
