A Few Skincare Myth's

Myth #1: Skin should feel tight after you wash it.
- It is a sign it has effectively been cleaned. If the skin feels tight after washing, it is a sign that the skin has been stripped of all its water causing surface dead skin cell buildup. No need to worry, all of the Erno Laszlo products leave your skin with a “comfortable clean!”

Myth #2: Chocolate and greasy foods will make your skin to break out.
- There is no real evidence indicating they cause breakouts!

Myth#3: The sun isn’t as strong in the winter so sunscreen doesn’t need to be worn.
- UVA rays cause premature skin ageing and skin cancer and they are equally as strong from summer to winter.

Myth #4: Oily skin’s don’t need to use moisturizer
- Always, always, always indulge in Erno Laszlo’s finest moisturizers!

Looking for a different type of coverage? SHAKE-IT

“Shake-It” Face Make Up uses exclusive “toner with color” technology to control surface oils, conceal blemishes and blot excess moisturizer with a transparent hint of color. Just shake up this face make up, dab it on with a cotton ball and buff. For an extra coverage, you can even dab on an extra layer while still allowing your natural glow to show through. With a finish this natural, even men can dare to “Shake It!” This makeup is available in nine shades but because the coverage is sheer, several shades may work for a single skin color. Easy, fast, and beautiful makeup.

September: Fig Month




The fig is one of the earliest fruits to be cultivated by man, and for good reason! This nutrient-packed fruit is so nutritious that it is believed that man can survive healthily on figs alone. Figs are rich in calcium, potassium, vitamin B6, iron, and magnesium. They provide more fiber than any other fruit or vegetable ad are also rich in pectin, a soluble fiber that helps reduce blood cholesterol. Figs have a very high water content and are therefore ideal to be used in skin care. Extract from figs has moisturizing properties similar to the skin's own and therefore is an excellent hydrator and skin tightener.

Ingredient Spotlight: Spirulina Maxima

Spirulina Maxima is an abundant fresh water blue-green algae, originating from a genus of microalgae that has inhabited the earth for more than 3.5 billion years. Its ongoing photosynthetic activity is partially responsible for the oxygen-rich environment in which we live today. Spirulina is a simple, single-celled plant that boasts a very complex nutritional profile. Composed of over 60% protein, this phytonutrient contains exceptionally high concentrations of beta-carotene, vitamin B12, iron, and the rare and essential fatty acid Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Spirulina works to firm the skin by nourishing the epidermal microenvironment and feeding new collagen growth from within. Find Spirulina in any of our Laszlo BLUE products.

August 2011: Cactus Month



There are hundreds of varieties of this prickly plant and many have different benefits for your health when either consumed or used topically. The Prickly Pear Cactus is an edible variety that can be eaten by peeling to remove the spines. They are very rich in insoluble and soluble dietary fiber. They are also rich in vitamins A, C, K, and B6 and may help in the treatment of diabetes. Aloe Vera, a plant closely related to the cactus, is often used in skin care formulas due to its unique ability to prevent moisture loss, a quality necessary for healthy skin. Aloe Vera extract helps prevent water evaporation from the outer most layer of the skin and acts as a moisturizer.
