How To Look Fantastic Whatever The Season

If being able to look fresh &  fabulous at the drop of a hat is what you want, we’re here to help!

Here at b clinic, our team’s fond of saying we want you to “be camera ready all year round.”

Just as we don’t subscribe to fad diets or exercising your heart out just before beach season or a special occasion. The best bods and beauty routines aren’t last minute – they take consistency, dedication and a desire to be healthy every week of the year.

Actually, we’re seeing current health trends catch up with this idea at the moment, with clients committing to long term health plans to keep them looking good permanently – not just for summer.

And the extra confidence that comes with a healthy body is also spurring an acknowledgement that you need to keep up appearances more regularly, too – more clients are booking routine makeovers and treatments throughout the year.

Fresh. Youthful. Revitalised.

We all want to be the very best versions of ourselves. But the real key to looking great whatever your age is simple: take some time to look after yourself and your skin on a daily basis.

Active skincare is a great way to keep your skin smooth and rejuvenated. Our own b skin range is designed to make a remarkable difference to your skin’s condition – even slowing down the visible effects of ageing.

Don’t leave beauty to the last minute

Once upon a time, we’d see clients coming in just a month (or a few days!) before their special event expecting a miracle that would leave them looking wonderful.

What they didn’t realise is that snap bingeing on a huge cosmetic treatment at the last minute ends up costing far more in the long run and the effects may not last as long (or worse, make it more obvious you’ve had something done).

It’s much better to tweak your appearance a little each time throughout the year than place all your bets on a big, expensive treatment that may not achieve the effect you were after.

For instance, treatments that can boost your look without any obvious signs you’ve had a treatment include:

  1. Beauty boosters. Improve your skin’s glow and elasticity by boosting hydration to make you look firmer and more youthful.
  2. Muscle relaxants. Don’t look older than you feel – these treatments can relax, soften and erase wrinkles like crow’s feet, frown and forehead lines without going under the knife.
  3. Picosure skin rejuvenation – More like a results-driven facial, this rejuvenating treatment effectively treats pigmentation, age spots and other skin discolourations while also boosting collagen for a soft, glowing appearance.
  4. Microdermabrasion and light peels. Shed dead skin cells to give your skin an all over softer, smoother luminosity.

And the best thing about each of these treatments? There’s very little downtime, so you can get on with looking your beautiful best right away.

Our top 5 tips to get your look on track for this year’s racing season.

Time flies, doesn’t it? It doesn’t seem that long ago you were celebrating the 2015 Melbourne Cup racing season – and now here you are, turning your attention once again to matching those fiendishly feathery fascinators to your favourite frock.

The key to stunning the crowd at race celebrations is to keep everything looking elegantly simple. And that means you shouldn’t leave all your primping to the last moment – all that perfection takes time, ladies! So here’s our top 5 beauty tips to check off your list:

  1. Go Highbrow. Nothing beats a perfectly arched brow to set off your outfit. Book in for a brow sculpting session well in advance, so you can give your brow artist time to work her magic. But if your brows are less than stellar, there’s new hope on the horizon. Feather Touch Brow tattooing helps even those seriously challenged in the brow department can have natural looking, luxurious, and perfectly fleek brows that no one will be able to guess aren’t your own.
  2. Smooth and Erase. For flawless selfies, target those wrinkles now with one of our muscle relaxant treatments. Non-invasive and non-surgical, it’s the ideal way to look younger without going under the knife. Unwanted frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines disappear, leaving your skin silky smooth and the perfect base for an all-day foundation.
  3.  Details Count. Don’t overlook your manicure and pedicure – you don’t want to come to the party dressed to the nines and then realise your nails are chipped and forlorn.
  4. Book a manicure the day before or the morning of the big event. Race day etiquette suggests no super long talons – think a ladylike medium length with square/round tips. Choose a shade that compliments your outfit, or if in doubt, a pretty pastel pink works well with everything. If you’re feeling bold, fire red makes a serious statement.
  5. Get Your Glow On. Give your skin a flattering glow with an all over spray tan a few days before the big day. But don’t go overboard – this is not the venue for dark, heavy fake tans! Remember, the look is Melbourne springtime, so those ladies haven’t seen the sun for very long!
  6. Colour Pops. Complete your race day look with a brand new luxury lipstick in a bold colour – experts predict we’ll be seeing a lot of strong pinks and fuchsias this spring carnival. But it’s all to do with your dress – choose a shade to match or complement what you’re wearing. Don’t forget to prep your lip, because longevity matters when you’re sipping champagne under the marquee. Use a hydrating lip balm, outline your lip with a pencil and don’t forget to follow up your lipstick with a touch of mineral gloss shine. Try Australian-made Issada Cosmetics for a full range of treatment and mineral lipsticks to pamper your pout. And don’t forget to pop your lippy in your purse for touch-ups throughout the day.

Just remember the best accessory at the races is feeling confident in how your look – just choose the perfect balance of demure and bold statement and you’ll be on to a winner!
