Mother’s Day is almost here and Belladerm wants to wish every mom a HAPPY, RELAXING MOTHER’S DAY!
Now let’s talk candidly for a moment about motherhood. Moms are notorious for not taking time for themselves, isn’t that right? I mean, they have to take care of the whole family first and then whatever time is left over (read: none) a mom will plan to focus on herself.  More often than not, there just isn’t enough time to go around and moms adjust to a constant state of feeling stretched too thin and  vow that they will just have to enjoy “me time” later on when life slows down.  The problem IS, it really won’t slow down.  You must carve out (painfully sometimes) the time to just be YOU and relax a little.  Whether it is having lunch with a friend, reading a few chapters of your favorite book or going for a run…the time you take for yourself will reap huge rewards not only for you as a mom, but for your kids.  What they get in return is a refreshed, more vibrant mom. We love to see moms come in and enjoy some pampering – a facial, a makeup consultation or whatever makes them feel pampered and beautiful.  It feels good to know that we are rejuvenating them so that they can return back to their families in a better state of mind and that they will have the simple satisfaction of knowing they took some “me time” and didn’t put it off until tomorrow, or next year, or even next decade! This time you steal away, no matter how brief it is, will make a big impact in your life and in your sense of self.  We invite you to make it a goal to enjoy some quality time away from the daily grind to recharge your batteries.  You totally deserve it! Keep up the great work, moms!

April is here, the grass is getting green and the trees are budding! This is such a rejuvenating time of year. Did anyone fool you good on April Fool’s Day?
We hope you made it out to shop for some of the latest trendy colors for spring.  Let’s continue with part 2 of our fashion trend update for spring.

• Anoraks: While you may not be familiar with this term, you likely know what they are already. They’re a super lightweight, casual cover-up that will give your look a sporty edge with lots of style. You’ll find them shiny or matte, long or short, and neutral or colored. Fabrications like nylon, polyester and acetate give them a particularly authentic active appearance.

•  Pink short suits: A blazer with shorts? Yep, that’s right. It may take the right person to pull off this look, but it definitely is on the trend list for spring!

• Peplum skirts, shirts, and dresses: These are defined by a short flared ruffle that sits at the natural waist. Show off your curves in this look! They do look best on more slender women, however. They can add bulk to the hips so if this is your problem area, maybe reconsider.

• Open shoulders: They make the entire outfit look relaxed and seductive.

• Wider shorts: We wore lots of shorts last season, but they just got wider this year!
• Futuristic prints: You’ll see a lot of strange, colorful prints out there this year, but floral prints are still very much a hot item, too.
• Boatneck shirts and dresses: This look shows off your feminine shoulder line. For formal occasions, designers offer more demure versions of this trend but for casual garments, neckline can go as deep as you wish.

• Hot pants: This trend will definitely motivate us to get working out if the thought of the quickly-approaching swimsuit season hasn’t already! It isn’t the first spring/summer we’ve seen these.  It doesn’t look like they are going away anytime soon.  If you prefer to hide your legs more in the summer, maxi dresses are still very trendy so you won’t have trouble finding full-length dresses! 🙂

If spider veins are keeping you from showing off your legs this spring/summer in the trendy fashions, stop in to learn more about treatment options! There are a couple of different ways to treat these unsightly veins and one is using a laser–so no injections at all! Sclerotherapy treatments happen to be on SPECIAL right now, as well. Take 15% off treatment packages now through April 30th! Helping you look and feel your best is our specialty.

We love to keep you ‘in the know’ when it comes to all things fashion and beauty.  Let’s talk color trends for this spring. Here is what’s hot:

• Minty Freshness: Yep, that’s right.  All shades/tones of mint are going to be on the racks.  Use it as a full outfit color or as a pretty accent shade.

• Tangerine: Beautiful, Bold and Eye-Catching! Perfect for a sundress, purse or sandal! Don’t dilute this one by pairing it with other colors–make a statement!

• Pastels: Soft, Flirty & Subtle! Now these are perfect for pairing together.  Don’t be afraid to layer and the more the merrier!

• Neon: Need we say more? This trend is a little bit harder to fall in love with but nevertheless, it is out there! Though mixing with neutrals is surely safe, you truly have fun when you go neon on neon.
