EXFOLIATE AND SLOUGH AWAY DULL END OF SUMMER SKIN!
Sunlight does more than just tan our skin, it also gives important vital vitamins, clears skin from breakouts and opens pores, and sometimes heals some skin conditions. Sort of like a natural exfolient, new skin cells turn over quicker in the summer too, which is also helpful in giving the skin a healthy summer glow.
Now that summer is winding down, our skin can revert back to it’s old ways, breakouts start returning, tans fade, and now can sometimes lack that glow we enjoyed earlier in the summer. It’s the “in-between seasons” that can always mess up our looks, makeup shades, and skin.

One way to help get back that glow, help your makeup apply and look fabulous, and obtain the true tone of your skin is EXFOLIATING. I was recently surprised to learn how many women DON’T exfoliate on a weekly basis, but now more than ever it’s very beneficial to do it.

WHAT’S EXFOLIATING?
The process of removal of the dead outer cells is known as exfoliation. Exfoliators or skin sloughers, are speedy skin improvers. Usually they come as a scrub (granular like texture) or in a cream containing acids (such as alpha hydroxy or fruit acids). The most commonly known exfoliaters are scrubs. You may have tried or used apricot or walnut scrubs commonly found at drug stores. Exfoliating has many benefits to the skin. By removing the dead cells from the surface of the skin, your skin becomes smoother and brighter in seconds. They also help skin that is prone to age or dark spots stay clearer, and increases the cell turnover rate-so the skin looks younger for longer.
Exfoliation is an integral part of skin care. The shedding of dead skin cells and the formation of the new ones is a constant process. A healthy skin renews itself totally in about 28 days, but can take as long as up to 6 week if NOT taken care of. The shedding of dead cells encourages the turnover of healthy new ones. With age the process of self renewal slows down (a babies skin renews itself every 6 DAYS). This leads to a buildup of dead cells on the outer layer. The skin acquires a dull tone, the texture becomes rough and the skin's capacity of absorb products becomes significantly less (which means that fabulous expensive serum you have is barely penetrating your skin to reap the benefits!).  Cellular buildup on the outer layer can also occur due to various other reasons. Removal of the dead epithelial cells helps to accelerate the production of new cells. 



MAKEUP BENEFITS
A master artist would never paint on a bad canvas! Consider your face an awesome canvas, and your makeup to enhance and accentuate your natural beauty (no matter how much or how little makeup you wear). No makeup can cover everything and still look natural, so taking care of your skin is really the first step in your overall great look. But let me tell you how fabulous your makeup goes on after exfoliating! Your moisturizer applies evenly and smoothly (and you even are using less moisturizer!).
Now that you know the benefits of sloughing away dead skin cells, It is important to choose a product that is very gentle so that you don’t scratch the dermis of the skin! Cheap exfoliating scrubs do more damage than good, as the large “scrubbies” or exfoliating agent can scratch the skin microscopically, introducing bacteria and causing infection and breakouts. It can also create tough skin, sort of like how callouses are formed on the feet. If the skin is constantly being overly rubbed, it will attempt to protect itself and create tougher skin.
Now for the good stuff….
A fine grit blended into a creamy base is best for all skin types. Even better- going for a brand that offers an all natural version with healing anti-oxidents. And it just so happens that this week TILL LABOR DAY we are giving a FREE sample of our personal favorite exfoliater AND moisturizer in every Ferro Cosmetics online order Courtesy of our partners ar UPUREA featuring GOLDFADDEN products!

New Office and Clarence Boutique Update

You may have noticed some changes lately (some maybe not so great) at Ferro Cosmetics, so I'd like to share our exciting news and apologize for some of our snafu's lately. First, I speak for all of us when we say we are very sorry for any inconveience you may have encountered (we have been equally as frustrated belieeeeve me!). 


So let's begin with our NEW OFFICE AND BOUTIQUE LOCATION located in Racine Wisconsin, a beautiful city on the lake.
OUR NEW ADDRESS:
304 MAIN STREET  RACINE, WI 53403  
PHONE: 262-456-6781
If You live in the Chicago/Milwauki area- I invite you to come see me inside the UPUREA BOUTIQUE. Upurea is our largest Authorized Retail Center, and we have set up our office within the Upurea store next to their offices. We have had great success with Ferro Cosmetics inside Upurea, a click-n-mortar store that sells high end quality, all natural products for everything from baby to anti-aging to mens products, as well as spa products, candles, skincare, and more, both in their boutique and their online boutique at www.upurea.com! The amazing part is with so many other brands within Upurea, Ferro Cosmetics has managed to become a top seller at Upurea! So we've decided it's now time to begin supporting our growing National exposure by being located to two fabuous city's, and working along side 2 beauty guru's, Michael and Bradley the owners of Upurea. Stop in and see us at 304 Main Street in Racine WI!

Some Snafu's along the way.....
As with most moves, not everything goes as planned, In this case, I personally moved to the areawith my 2 children, so we had a bigger load to bear (and move) in this case. Let's just say if anything could go wrong...it DID go wrong. Trailers were late, movers were late, phone transfer issues, and an entriely new system and staff had to relearn many basic day to day activities including myself. We made every attempt to have online orders move out same day, but our shipping providers changed, and doing business in now 2 states complicated things. Call it growing pains, but I was more frustrated about how nit affected our loyal customers. The good news is, we are almost 100% settled! Please be patient with us- we promise it will be worth it! 

We have so many exciting products, new colors and programs we are launching very soon, and we are eager to show you them all!
Want some secret info? Well, first off to launch are Eight brand new professional brushes we've had custom made- which will help achieve flawless looks easily and flawlessly. New fall colors for eyes, cheeks, and our most exciting launches of our 100% all natural mascara and lip colors!

We'll be a lot more active on our blog now, especially because we have a lot more to talk about! Ferro Cosmetics is Growing quickly, and we have you to thank! But we're no where near our goals, so spread the word, and keep an eye out for our customer referral programs too!

If you have experienced any issues that need our immediate attention, we are happy to help make it better! Please email us at info@ferrocosmetics.com with your queries, and a member of our customer service team will respond as quickly as possible.


Thank you for your support and buying American Made, 100% Natural Mineral Makeup from Ferro Cosmetics!
 
TO OUR BUFFALO CLIENTS:
We are proud to refer you to all our Authorized Resellers (listed on our website under "Retail Locations") now that our Clarence Center Boutique is closed for personal service. We have locations in:
Hamburg- Studio B
Lockport- Skin By Lisa Day Spa
Tonawanda (5 minutes from Williamsville) TEEZ Salon - Hair to Buffalo Jills!
Niagara Falls, NY
Niagara Falls, CA
and more soon to come
You may also shop on our website 24/7 at www.ferrocosmetics.com 
ABOUT AUTHORIZED RESELLERS: We only authorize, support and endorse those businesses listed on our website. We DO NOT endorse GREEN SPA in Williamsville NY.


You may be wondering why we closed, and although the reasons are great, we are sad to not be able to see our regular clients every week. We made our Boutique open to the public while we took the time to find the right businesses to Resell Ferro Cosmetics products. Since our brand is primarily sold in fine salons and boutique's, we knew once we had enough fabulous businesses that would provide the same excellent beauty expertise we did, that we would eventually close our doors to focus on our product development and company while our Resellers provided the care and expert advise to our clients. That time came right when we decided to open an additional office outside Chicago in Racine, WI. 

NOTE ABOUT WKBW GIFT CERTIFICATES: If you have any gift certificates purchased from WKBW website, THEY ARE VALID AT OUR AUTHORIZED RESELLER LOCATIONS. You may also redeem them online at our website. Contact us by sending an email to info@ferrocosmetics.com with your gift certificate numbers located on the bottom, And we will email you a unique code to use at checkout.

Ferro Cosmetics Sponsors NFL Buffalo Jills Cheerleaders!


The Beginning of the 2010 Season
By: Krissy Ferro
We LOVE doing everyday looks, especially since we’re all about helping the everyday woman get the look she aspires to achieve. But it’s oh-so-fun glamming it up every once in a while!
That’s why we proudly announce Ferro Cosmetics as the Official Makeup and Official Sponsor to the NFL Buffalo Jills Cheerleaders!
As  proud Buffalo Bills fans, sponsoring the Buffalo Jills Cheerleaders is especially exciting for us! We get the pleasure of getting these already gorgeous and incredibly smart women, totally Glam for their every look! On the field and off, events, photo shoots, appearances and their exclusive calendar shoot! And now we can bring to you the insider scoop on what it’s really like to be an NFL Cheerleader!
The season begins ......
 
With auditions in March, veterans and newbies alike all have to go through the same process. There’s a dance routine to be learned, and of course, the Jills “Look” must be learned and worn at auditions.  The girls attended “pre-audition” meetings at the Niagara Falls Conference Center where they learned about the organization, what a Buffalo Jill is and what she stands for, choreography, and other information regarding the enormous commitment and community events. This helps them determine if being a Jill is right for them, and prepare for the actual audition.  

Me explaining how Ferro will be helping them this season and how fabulous our mineral makeup is for their skin especially when wearing alot of makeup every week.

 There also was a choreography recap held at Gold’s Gym in Williamsville, which gave the girls extra time to really nail down the choreography before the big audition and work with the pom poms.

We attended these pre-audition events the first week so we could familiarize ourselves with the expectations of the Jills, and since this is the organizations first Makeup Sponsor- and our first year officially sponsoring NFL cheerleaders- we needed to hear all about what’s expected from the girls’ appearance and image wise. We’ve worked with other cheerleading squads both big and small such as the Buffalo Bandits Lacrosse cheerleaders Buffalo Bandettes and Envi Allstars- a competition squad for girls, and now we’re working with the NFLCheerleaders!


So, exactly what IS the look? 
Pretty and glam, and Ferro’s making it easy to achieve and gentle on their skin.
Standard Jills Look consists of wearing:

Foundation is a must. We'll be using Ferro's ULTIMATE MINERAL FOUNDATION since it's a high performance foundation suitable for high activity as well as photography, holds up well with perspiration and wet weather conditions
Bronzer or blush. For game day we'll teach contouring and shading for distance shots as well as meet and greets.

3 eye shadow Colors on eyes- hilighter, crease, and contour. Staying with rich neutral shades will help the girls use the very same products and looks for their everyday makeup too.

False lashes- really make the eyes pop from far away and even closeup if applied correctly. We'll be teaching them eye lining techniques that will hide the lash seam line and ensure a natural look.

Red red lips. Finding the right red is difficult, but done correctly, is a stunning and simple way to add some color to your look without alot on the face and eyes.
And last but not least.....

Curly big sexy glam hair. courtesy of Char, hairstylist (and sometimes therapist) to the girls for the last several years



AUDITION DAY
The girls were nervous, and even I was nervous! 

I set up a mini makeup studio behind the public curtain and offered my services complimentary to the girls, just to give them some extra confidence by ensuring they looked as best as they could. I remember auditioning many years ago when I was a dancer for theme parks, Disney, and dinner theatre, so I related to their jitters in a big way.

 My little Makeup Studio before the long line of hopefuls joined me


Tattoos are a no no for a Jill in her attire......
and very difficult to cover on the body normally, but I mixed Ultimate Mineral Foundation (in a shade that best matched her body’s skin tone) into a light creamy serum by Biothique (organic and made in France, available at www.Upurea.com) and dabbed the creamy mixture !over the tattoo with the Concealer Brush to completely cover (and it sure did). I lightly dusted matte mineral veil over the top to set it if it was still moist and they had to rush out to the audition stage to finish. This is a great tip for anyone who wants to temporarily cover anything on the body with summertime coming, or even for situations like job interviews, meeting his parents, or anything else that requires immediate concealing attention.

 Jill's Ambassador hopeful being interviewed by 97 Rock radio personality.


The girls were judged by a panel of people NOT part of the Jills regular team of directors, so there was no room for favoritism of any kind. They each were judged with score cards based on what the organization looks for in a Jill, but the panel did not know the girls or work with them previously, so it was all very professional and very fair. One of the judges won his seat as a winner of a 97 Rock contest!

The day ended with many tears of those who were cut, and many cheers from those who made it, and The final team was announced last week! Practice starts right away, with their first big event being the calendar photo shoot in Jamaica!

All of us at Ferro have a busy calendar ourselves, with April getting to know all the girls and doing pre-photo shoots to help prepare the ones who are going to Jamaica. 

We'll keep you all informed of the fun happenings with the NFL cheerleaders. I personally was always so curious about the life and events of being an NFL cheerleader, and now having the honor of being involved, it's even more exciting to be a part of.

Stay tuned for more Jills updates, and of course, more makeup talk!!

CONCEALING UNDER THE EYES WITH FERRO COSMETICS MINERAL FOUNDATION


Krissy Ferro- CEO Ferro Cosmetics
Concealing the under eye area is a great way to brighten the eyes and freshen your look. Even if you’re one of the lucky ones in which dark circles don’t exist, still, using an under eye concealer gives you that professional look everyone loves.

So how does one conceal using mineral makeup?
Ferro Cosmetic’s Ultimate Mineral Foundation is like 3 products in one: Foundation, Setting Powder, and CONCEALER in one product. But since under the eyes makes many women nervous for fear of accentuating lines and wrinkles with traditional type concealers, mineral powders typically makes women even more nervous.
TRUE Mineral Makeup like Ferro Cosmetics is made from rocks and minerals in POWDER FORM, WITHOUT the powder, or talc as it’s known in cosmetic use, as well as zero chemicals, bismuth, parabens, dyes, or fillers. Minerals bounce and reflect light away from lines and wrinkles without the glittery shimmery effect, minimizing the appearance of all those things we want to hide. What’s funny is that many of the products we think will conceal and cover- actually makes them worse!

Traditional Concealers typically are always heavier, containing heavier waxes, petroleum byproducts, and hazardous chemicals in creams and sticks. Pressed compacts and pressed powder concealers contain binders and waxes to bind the product and keep it in its compact, but the waxes make the area unusually shiny, and after 2 hours you can see even more lines, sometimes lines you never knew you had! The moist consistency THEN usually requires a powder application OVER the concealer so it doesn’t grab mascara or eye liner, making it look even heavier. Powder contains talc, and talc stretches pores and is linked to cancer according to the Skin Deep Data Base.
So what’s a girl to do when she wants to conceal under the eyes?
Ferro Cosmetics Ultimate mineral foundation 2-3 shades lighter than your foundation shade!
For a limited time -for ONLY $5 you can grab yourself FERRO COSMETIC’S MINI’S in your Concealer shade! (pssst- by the way, when used as concealer under the eyes the Mini’s last well over a month!)
One product- no shine- no chemicals. Lightweight and never heavy, simply going up just a few shades will keep your skin’s finish consistent, and when you’re wearing Ferro Cosmetics mineral makeup- looks like you’re wearing nothing at all! No need to set it after applying because it’s set on its own. No oils to grab eye makeup, repels mascara “raccoon eyes”, and even though it’s in powder form, Ultimate Foundation will not settle into or exaggerate wrinkles or fine lines.




TIP: Drinking plenty of water daily and Moisturizing is essential to any makeup application to look its best, and under eye serums and creams are very helpful in keeping the delicate skin under the eye soft, plump and hydrated- which means fewer wrinkles in the long run.
UNDER EYE CONCEALER WINNING COMBO: MINI size of Ultimate Foundation 2-3 shades lighter than your foundation shade (for just $5!), Concealer Brush to apply precisely and gently everyday.
I JUST WANNA TRY IT COMBO: MINI size of Ultimate Foundation 2-3 shades lighter than your foundation shade (for just $5!), foundation wedge sponge (lasts a few days, up to a week)
APPLICATION
What the PROS use- Concealer Brush, Foundation Sponge/Wedge.
The right tools are essential to applying powdered mineral foundation as a concealer for under eyes because it will get mineral makeup right up to the lash line, which are the most common places women OVERLOOK when applying makeup. But make no mistake about it- you will notice a HUGE difference once you apply mineral makeup there, even if it’s the same shade. Standard mineral makeup brushes like Kabuki brushes or Ferro’s Fabuki and Flat Top mineral foundation brushes apply an even coat on a larger surface area such as your face. Concealing requires a more concentrated deposit of product in your application, onto a smaller area, as well as blending properly (meaning not blending it completely off the area, or flooding the delicate small eye area with too much product).
CHOOSE YOUR DESIRED COVERAGE AND FINISH
First choose your foundation type. Ultimate Foundation gives fuller coverage and leaves a matte finish. Radiance Foundation gives light to medium coverage and leaves a sheer radiant finish.

 I always keep both Ultimate and Radiance Mineral Foundation Mini’s in my personal bag because sometimes I got very little sleep (or too much wine the night before) and need more coverage for dark circles- hence Ultimate Foundation. If I only wish to illuminate the area and I don’t have dark circles I use Radiance. Ultimate Foundation gives fuller coverage and leaves a matte finish. Radiance Foundation gives light to medium coverage and leaves a sheer radiant finish).

MAXIMUM COVERAGE FOR EXTREME DARK CIRCLES- MIX INTO YOUR LOTION EYE CREAM
Mix your concealing shade of Ultimate or Mineral Foundation into your moisturizer or under eye cream. It works fabulously And is a perfect camouflage concealer. Mixing with moisturizer will also work making your powdered mineral foundation into a healthy liquid foundation! Blending is key so make sure you have a concealer brush and/or sponge on hand.

BEST SHADES FOR UNDER EYE CONCEALING
The most popular shades for under the eyes are:
If you have very fair skin: Fairest Honey Ultimate Foundation or Radiance Foundation
If you have lighter to light Medium skin: Palest Honey, Light Honey, and Light Beige
If you have dark skin that is lighter: Honey Crème, Light Medium Beige, Honey Glaze- these would be ideal shades.
When choosing shades, refer to our website at www.ferrocosmetics.com and view the shades in Ultimate and Radiance Mineral Foundation.

Try this highly noticeable tip and watch how many people ask if you’ve slept for 2 days because you look so fresh and rested! You can’t beat it for just 5 bucks!

TRAVELING WITH YOUR MINERAL MAKEUP
Krissy Ferro

Probably the biggest question we get at this time of year as winter vacations are more common. Let’s face it- it’s been a brutal winter! But even if you’re not planning a fabulous vacation- what about a business trip, long weekend, or just an overnight stay? The purity and skin benefits of mineral makeup are well worth the ummm, well, it can get a little messy huh?

What usually makes the mess is the air pressure changes during flight. One of my celebrity photo shoots with Brande Roderick from last season’s “Celebrity Apprentice” was also one of the messiest! I was very embarrassed to open my kit to find 3 jars tops blew completely off, and yep you guessed it- ALL OVER every single jar (over 100) and every makeup brush. Not to mention we were outside on a beach on the Pacific Ocean, and I had a major mess to clean up! Luckily she was very nice, and I quickly cleaned off what I needed and did a Fab makeover. Needless to say- That was the last time I traveled without preparing! 

So how can you travel with your full arsenal of 100% pure fabulous mineral makeup???
We have a few suggestions that really rock traveling with your rocks!

FERRO’S OWN UNIQUE MINI’S

Many women don’t know that Ferro Cosmetics is one of the only cosmetics lines that carries a miniature version of each product! They come in a small jar, fully packaged, and jammed with up to a full gram of product (depending on the product)! Mini’s are great because on their own they last weeks, so you typically have more than enough mineral makeup to last your entire, long weekends, and definitely overnights. They are also FAB because:
AFFORDABLE! JUST $5 EACH!! Mini’s are priced so affordable, you can easily get your entire look for about 20 bucks, simply duplicating the mineral makeup shades you already have- but just in a Mini size! Easy peasy!
Grab your 5 Piece Purse Pack on ferrocosmetics.com for $19.95 and get your entire travel kit customized By you and FOR you!
• SMALLER JARS=LESS SPILLAGE!
• PERFECTLY MATCH YOUR TAN! If you’re going somewhere warm in the dead of winter- chances are your skin tone is going to change a few shades darker within a matter of days. Who wants to invest in full size mineral makeup (or worse toxic oily makeup in the gift shop) on TEMPORARY darker shades that will only sit in your drawer after vacation is over? Get a few mini’s in darker shades! You can use only what you need, mix different shades together, and easily transition with the perfect shade as your tan fades back to your natural tone.
• SMALL AND EASY TO CARRY! Don’t be fooled by their small size- there’s plenty of product inside them, but Mini’s are small enough to throw in the smallest of purses.
• FINALLY WEAR THOSE FUN COLORS! We all have that inner wild side, and it usually comes out on vacation. You’re not at the office so you can wear that Sage Green, rich blue Sapphire Smoke, or glimmer on your cheeks with our Glow Bronzers! Try something new without breaking the bank!
• AIRPORT SECURITY FRIENDLY! No liquids here, so Mini’s and even full sized Ferro Cosmetics Mineral Makeup passes through security in all airports- NO Ziploc bag required!
• SUN PROTECTION! Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide (those white noses on the beach) are the active ingredients in sun screen. A typical SPF 15 has 3% Zinc OR Titanium. Our foundations contain over 25% of BOTH ingredients, making it a toxic free way of protecting your skin.


HOW TO PACK YOUR MINERAL MAKEUP
Weather you have Mini’s or full size mineral makeup jars; there still is that issue of minerals coming up through the sifter and laying all in the top of the jar. Air pressure changes while flying, bags being flung around, and all the other movements of your bags can make mineral makeup a disaster to travel with if you don’t pack it correctly. Here’s some quickie easy ways to pack it using things you already have in your home!

• COTTON BALLS- Stick a few in top of the sifter, enough so there is little room left, and then close the jar. The cotton balls help minimize overspill by eliminating any empty space for them to spill into.

• SCOTCH TAPE- Lightly moisten a tissue with rubbing alcohol (because it evaporates so quickly) and clean the sifter top. Make sure the surface is dry, and cover all the holes with scotch tape, then close lid.

• SARAN WRAP/CLING WRAP- Apply a piece over the mouth of the jar while the lid is off, then close the lid tightly. You can also wrap each jar in Saran Wrap to catch any implosions during flight from spilling into your bag.

• ZIPLOCK BAGGIES- Keep Eye Candy Mineral Eye Shadows and eye makeup brushes in one bag, Face brushes and mineral makeup products like foundations, bronzers and veils in another bag. You can even separate the brushes from the mineral makeup as well for extra spillage protection. You don’t want that silver eye shadow in your mineral foundation brush, so it’s best to keep everything separate.
KRISSY’S PACKING SYSTEM
Whenever I travel, I always have my own personal mineral makeup stash- PLUS my complete makeup kit, and that’s a lot of mineral makeup jars! I don’t have time to invest in a long process, especially with over 100 jars of mineral makeup, so here’s my personal travel system:
My personal Makeup Bag: 
I travel with full sizes AND Mini’s. First I Tighten every lid very tightly, then I grab my box of Ziploc bags, and put the following groups in separate bags: eye makeup brushes, face makeup brushes, foundations and veils, Blush X3/Glows, Eye Candy & Mascara.  
When I ARRIVE: I tap each jar on a counter to settle any loose minerals back down into the sifter.

Makeup Kit: Tighten all lids, then stack my foundations in short stacks and wrap tightly with saran wrap (a total of 24 foundation shades). Cotton Balls go in all Blush X3 and Glow Bronzers since they are pigmented, which helps me more with applications later when I get into my kit. All my most used Eye Candy shades get 2 small cotton balls per jar and saran wrapped, the rest of the shades I simply tighten lids and put them in baggies.
A travel pack of baby wipes is always helpful for quick makeup removal, cleaning eye shadow brushes between colors, and wiping down any spillage that may have broken through.

If YOU have any great tips for traveling- send ‘em in! We love to hear about your tips so we can share them with other Ferro lovers!
HAPPY AND SAFE TRAVELS!
