Top Takeaways from Marie Claire’s 3rd Annual Global Beauty Forum

by

marie claire global beauty forum

On April 19th, Marie Claire hosted its 3rd annual Global Beauty Forum at the magnificent Hearst Tower building. Following coffee and a light breakfast, a great panel of today’s beauty change agents, image makers, and influencers took to the stage to share their unique outlooks on femininity and the latest trends in beauty. Among them were Tata Harper, founder of Tata Harper Skincare, and Aamito Lagum, model and winner of the first season of Africa’s Next Top Model. Erin Flaherty, Marie Claire’s Beauty and Health Director led the captivating and educating conversation that took place.

In our opinion, here are the three top takeaways from the event:

Facial Fitness is a thing:

Face yoga, which consists of a range of facial exercises designed by specialists in this field, has shown to help lift, firm, tone, and reduce wrinkles. By working all of the layers of the skin correctly, these techniques increase blood circulation, allowing for more oxygen and nourishment to reach skin cells.

What’s in HER Bag? Julia DiNardo of Fashion Pulse Daily

by

My amazing friend Dina Fierro of eye4style has started a ‘What’s in HER Bag?’ feature, and was kind enough to feaure mine this week! See below for the numerous necessary and rationalized as necessary items I carry with me on a daily basis! And of course, check out eye4style – I know you will love it (if you don’t already!)

My dear friend Julia DiNardo really SETS THE STANDARD for multi-tasking. Not only does she write the amazing blog Fashion Pulse Daily (and for other outlets like Stylelist), she’s also a professor at NYU and the designer behind the aborbs Neighbor Teaze line.

With all of those responsibilities, I expected Julia to carry a wonderland of goodies in her bag – and I must admit, she didn’t disappoint.
In her own words, here’s what you’ll find tucked in Julia’s MMS Design Mary Kate Studded Messenger Bag from HandbagHeaven.com:
  • My hands stay ultra-moisturized with Miss Oops Butter Hands
  • I’m always on the go, so I love my portable, lightweight Duracell Instant USB Charger
  • Blackberry Curve Phone
  • Won’t be caught without a slew of Fashion Pulse Daily business cards, a Metro Card, and my Starbucks Card!
  • Always gotta shield my pale eyes for the sun – been rocking these Jones New York oversized shades quite a bit
  • Keeping hydrated via The Heart Truth nalgene water bottle (a New York Fashion Week freebie)
  • I’m always prepared for a fashion emergency with my Tide Pen, pack of tissues, mini brush, Purell, Opti-Free Contact rewetting drops, Marc Jacobs Grapefruit splash perfume in a mini atomizer from Sephora, Color Sensational Maybelline lip glosses in ‘Born with it’ and ‘Triple Yum’ and Sweet Thing Collection Nail polish in ‘Minty, MAC lipstick in Peta Lure, and Dior concealer.
  • For subway rides of 10+ minutes, it’s imperative to have something on hand to read; my choice is one of my numerous magazine subscriptions (seen here, Marie Claire) or a WWD.
Thanks to Julia for participating!
