REVIEW: Prtty Peaushun Skin Tight Body Lotion

I was very excited to have the opportunity to review Prtty Peaushun (pronounced Pretty Potion). This is a popular product among celebrities to get that glowing, luminous look to their skin for red carpets. 

ABOUT THE PRODUCT:

"Subtle light reflecting particles in a natural emollient base give the skin a gorgeous, flattering glow. Radiance conceals minor imperfections and enhances definition to create a sexy, slimmer silhouette. Infused with an innovative blend of natural plant extracts to lift, firm, tighten and diminish the appearance of cellulite, stretch marks and varicose veins, as well as minimizing bruising and sore muscles. 

LOOK GREAT IN YOUR BIRTHDAY SUIT...

As a Hollywood makeup artist, Bethany has been using this formula to make her celebrity clients' skin glow. After years of request to make this product available, Prtty Peaushun Skin Tight Body Lotion is finally here. It not only looks beautiful on, but with the help of some innovative active ingredients, will also improve the condition of your skin. The subtle light reflecting pigments in the shades Light, Medium, Dark, and Deep Dark will help even out skin tone and enhance muscle tone. Use Plain on its own for a colorless shine sans the glow or layer on top of your skin tone shade for an even more luminous look."

Celeb Love: Elizabeth Banks

http://www.fionastilesmakeup.com/

For the Man on a Ledge Premiere, Elizabeth wore a stunning gold paillette dress from Pucci with really sexy Christian Louboutin gold shoes, so we used lots of bronzes on the eyes and warmed her skin to a sun kissed golden color.  The bronzes made the blue of her eyes just pop.  And I love the warm rosy nude lip color because it keeps the look from feeling washed out, but it doesn't take away from the eyes.  I applied the foundation as I always do, using a synthetic brush and a Beauty Blender.  After it was set I dusted a little bronzer at her hairline and on her cheekbones to give that beachy glow.  For the eyes I took a deep brown liner and smudged it into the lashes top and bottom, and into the waterline.  Then I blended the color and brushed on a deep bronze shadow over it.  A little black liner on the top lash line defined the eyes and make the lashes look thicker.  And so did a few coats of black mascara. You know I love my mascara!

Beauty Discovery of the Day: Prtty Peaushun

While on the set of a shoot the other day, working with the fabulous makeup artist Sage Maitri, I was introduced to a miracle lotion, Prtty Peaushun. Created by makeup artist Bethany Karlyn for her own use on shoots, she created the product for anyone who wanted to "look lit from within." The product creates a subtle glow and slimming effect -- "think glimmer, not glitter," said Karlyn. Maitri insisted I try it on myself, and my arms instantly not only glowed, but had a firmer look to them -- something I will always love from a beauty product.

There are five different shades offered for the dye-free formula, created with organic plant extracts. Karlyn also strives to maintain that it is natural and fragrance free, with just a touch of Pomelo (grapefruit) for a light citrus scent. You can either choose to match your skin, or use a slightly darker shade for a touch of color. Tracy Anderson, the famed celebrity fitness trainer, was the one who supported Karlyn as she began to publicize the product, and she has been a huge fan (and has helped to spread the word) ever since first trying it.

I was first drawn to the product due to what Karlyn calls it's "anti-packaging," or a small silver pouch meant to take up minimal space and leave as small of a carbon footprint as possible. And then of course once testing it out, I had to spread the word myself.

What Makeup Artists Are Saying: Noel Nichols

Noel Nichols had this to say about using Prtty Peaushun!

"Prtty Peaushun is absolutely the best body product that I have ever used, and my clients simply cannot stop raving! I love to use Prtty Peaushun on everyone, a lighter application for a more natural look, and a few applications for a sexier glow.  There is no other body product on the market that delivers like Prtty Peaushun, and the fact it's almost completely natural is a major bonus!"

Another Glowing Review:: We Heart This!

A glowing review for Prtty Peaushun

January 3, 2012 | By: Erin

photos: we heart this

Ever since I entered my 30s my skin has gone through some not-so-fun changes. Freckles, moles and marks seem to appear out of nowhere and off to the dermatologist I go running! Fortunately, they’re all normal and just “part of aging” as my doctor put it (ugh!)

So, what can you do when you’ve lost your healthy, youthful glow, you ask? The answer is to make one, with some magical Prtty Peaushun! No, I didn’t spell that wrong, Prtty Peaushun is a fun way to pronounce and spell “pretty potion”, peau coming from the French noun for skin. This body lotion was created by celebrity makeup artist Bethany Karlyn, who has worked with countless celebrities, dancers and models to make their skin glow. After years of requests to make her secret potion available to the masses, it’s finally here. And I, for one, was thrilled to try it.

The secret behind Prtty Peaushun ($36) is subtle light reflecting particles that give skin a beautiful, flattering glow. You know that dewy, shimmer you always see on models walking the runway and on actors on TV and in the movies? That’s the glow we’re talking about, and this stuff really gives you that same shine.

The other shining thing about Prtty Peaushun is the packaging, which as they claim, is more anti-packaging. It was designed to take up minimal space, using no secondary packaging, to lighten it’s carbon footprint. It also has a cap at the top, that allows you to squeeze every last drop out of the bag…it’s really quite brilliant.

In addition, it contains natural plant extracts that help to lift, firm, and diminish the appearance of cellulite, is fragrance free and doesn’t contain any toxic ingredients.
