Erica Y. Chung’s passion for creating the “Perfect Product” lead her to co-found 3LAB with her husband, David Chung. Together, this dynamic husband and wife team have a combined 40 plus years of beauty retail experience and set out to create 3LAB, the perfect anti-aging skin care collection.

If you haven't tried any of 3LAB's anti-aging skin care products you are missing out!  The stuff is simply amazing and worth every penny.  3LAB's brand new Ginseng Skin Care Collection, includs, "The Cream", "The Serum" and "The Eye Cream" are all formulated to address and treat all of the signs of aging from wrinkles to skin tone imperfections.

It is this quest for the ultimate results-oriented product range that drives Erica Y. Chung to work tirelessly, along with the chemists, in her cutting-edge laboratory and state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. The result? A line of new and highly effective high-end skincare products that keep the promises to their claims by using the most innovative and technologically advanced ingredients available – like Nano-Claire GY™, the world’s first bio-engineered growth hormone and apple stem cell technology.

3LAB's "The Cream" is an ultra-hydrating cream infused with Wild Mountain Ginseng, an ancient remedy and proven healer, and modern technology and advanced ingredients to preserve a youthful complexion, prevent the signs of aging and lock in moisture so the skin remains plump, hydrated and gowing.  Rare Ginseng stem cells along with Phytofix and Oristar ADS stimulate collagen production for the ultimate lift.

3LAB's "The Serum" accelerates cellular turnover with rare Ginseng stem cells while a Yin Yang Extract blend balances the skin.  Betafin promotes collagen production and provides long-lasting lift, while powerful brighteners target hyper-pigmentation, dark spots and frekles.  Photonutrients activate the skin's metabolism and helps keep skin youthful and glowing while preventing the signs of aging.

3LAB's "The Eye Cream" combines Wild Mountain Ginseng and a peptide blend featuring Eyeseryl to provide superior hydration while lifting and firming the delicate eye area and reducing the puffiness of under eye bags.  Rare Genseng stem cells along with fermented extracts, including Gwennis accelerate turnover and keep the eyes looking bright and youthful.

How to Get the Winning Look from Last Night's Finale of NBC's "Fashion Star"

After consulting with Kara for her final look Theodore suggested the models do something a little different (for Kara, at least!) and wear their hair down but alas, Kara wanted to continue with her signature updo style with tons of volume. For the finale, Theodore took the look to the highest of heights (literally!) and gave Cambria a punk rock look for the runway. To recreate the final winning look (and channel your inner rocker), try the following steps:

1. Start by sectioning the hair in two – top half and bottom half. Twist the top half up and secure with a hair stick to get it out of the way.

2. Taking the bottom section of hair, pull the right side back flat against your head and secure with a bobby pin. Be sure to smooth the hair so it’s slicked back and clean. Repeat on the left side.

3. Next, remove the hair stick from the top of the head. Take one-inch sections of hair and spray the roots with Suave Professionals® Touchable Finish Extra Hold Hairspray to create grip for teasing. Then using a brush, tease the hair at the roots for extra high volume.

4. Gently brush the hair in a backward motion to smooth top layer, but be careful not to lose the volume you just created. Curl the ends under and secure with bobby pins. Lightly spray with hairspray to set.

5. Complete this high volume look with Suave Professionals Men® Wet Look Styling Gel (don’t be afraid to snag your guy’s products – especially for an extreme look like this!). Dispense a dollop into your hand, emulsify and smooth the sides. If needed, use a toothbrush to tame any flyaways.

For more behind-the-scenes scoop check out Theodore’s recap of the finale here and visit Suave Beauty on Facebook or @SuaveBeauty on Twitter. Thanks for tuning into “Fashion Star” with us this season! We hope the show-stopping looks that rocked the runway have inspired you to try out some new styles of your own

Gently Massage Away Unwanted Hair Instantly With Bikini Zone!

You've seen the infomercial for rub away hair remover and thought  "Huh?  I don't think so!" right?  I've seen it a dozen times and even found myself reaching for the phone in a moment of impulse purchasing weakness to see how this could possibly work. 

Before you judge, try it yourself without spending a fortune on the stuff they sell on TV.  Bikini Zone Shower Buff Hair Remover can be found at any drugstore or specialty store for half the price of the infomercial brands. 

Bikini Zone Shower Buff Hair Remover gently massages away unwanted hair instantly.  It removes hair below skin-level for results lasting days longer than shaving.  Shower Buff also gently exfoliates during use for soft smooth skin.  With just a few simple steps you'll be fuzz-free in no time!

After any hair removal, Shower Buff, waxing, shaving or depilating, I like to lather my skin in an after shave gel.  Bikini Zone makes a medicated after shave gel with lidocaine to help ease the slight discomfort, irritation, bumps and redness that occur after hair removal.  Bikini Zone After Shave Gel instantly stops irritation, redness and itching!

Protect Your Skin From Harmful Environmental Elements with Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion

"We Deliver the Beauty of Healthy Skin"

With a red haired-fair skinned mother and a blonde haired-blue eyed father, I'm about as fair skinned as they come so I know just how important it is to protect my skin from the suns harsh rays and other harmful environmental elements.  I never leave the house with anything less than SPF 30 slathered all over my skin. 

This summer, the FDA will enforce new rules and regulations for sunscreen labels.  With this change, millions of sunbathers will learn just how unreliable some of their favorite sunscreen products are when it comes to protecting themselves from UV rays that can lead to pre-maturely aging skin and even cancer.  In my fair skinned, Scandinavian family, skin cancer is something we're all too familiar with so I've always known the importance of protecting my skin and have tried almost every sunscreen and sunblock there is out there. 

I was recently given Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion SPF 50 to take for a test drive and it couldn't have come at a better time.  During the winter months I tend to use a less protective sunscreen since I'm mostly covered up and inside, but during the spring and summer months, the sun seeks me out!  I've even been known to sunburn in the shade!

The first thing I noticed about Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion, and loved, was that it didn't smell like sunscreen at all and left none of that creamy white sunblock-ish residue on my skin.  It was so light and fast absorbing I forgot I was applying sunscreen at all.  Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion is "very water resistant" so my morning application lasted all day long.  Today is the fourth day that I've applied Epionce after my morning shower and my skin is feeling notably softer than usual...another bonus! 

I'll be tossing out all of my other sunscreens and sunblocks and will be using Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion SPF 50 from now on!

To get more information on Epionce Ultra Shield Lotion, "specifically formulated to stand out from other sunscreens on the market by being anti-inflammatory, light and quick-absorbing and very water resistant" ask your dermatologist or visit www.Epionce.com
