Eve Covers Rolling Out

We are loving Eve's new do! The raptress did a fab fashion forward cover and spread for Rolling Out Magazine, but her hair stole the show. Her textured long tresses with deep burgundy highlights is a style we haven't seen on Eve before, and it really brings her out! We're happy she's back and we look forward to seeing more of her. You can achieve this look with Relaxed Straight from our Bounce Collection.

A Night with Indique: A Private Bloggers Experience

This past Saturday was an amazing experience at Indique Philly. Beauty bloggers joined us for a night of cocktails and hor d'oeuvres, while they enjoyed a private review of Indique's premium virgin hair extension collections. We tweeted and instagramed the night away as we chatted about all things beauty, fashion, and hair. 

Everyone left with an Indique bag full of surprise goodies and we even gave away a Studio Fishnet! Come and visit us at 1607 South Street and leave Indiqued!

The Looped Fishtail Braid

Are you looking for a stylish, yet chic hair style that will keep you cool and dry throughout the summer? Try a looped fishtail braid to keep your long tresses above your shoulders with a unique braid. This is also a great protective style to help preserve the ends of your hair from harsh UV rays and humidity. Moisturize your hair, giving special attention to the ends of your hair, with Indique Hair Care Essentials French Argan Oil and braid your hair into your desired fishtail braid. Then take the end of the braid and tuck it towards the nape of your hair. Secure the end of the braid with a hair pin and your ready to go!

If you love a bold lip try Stila’s new line of After Glow Lip Color.  The collection includes six new lip shades that also glow in the dark.  The blend of special fluorescent pigments are, according to Stila, three times brighter than conventional lip colors. Then, at night, they're designed to glow under UV light.  Yes, you read it right, the cosmetic glow stick has the ability to illuminate your mouth bringing new meaning to the saying “Let Your Lips Do the Talking!”

Don't Forget to Treat Yourself

Life can be overwhelming, busy. Indiqenistas are consistently achieving more! From pursuing higher education, to working overtime to secure  your next promotion- it gets easy to forget about yourself, and your happiness. According to Mail Online, the average person only treats themselves to about two treats a month, and generally only as a reward for a hard day at work or if the item is on sale.  However, there are small, inexpensive ways to pamper yourself without breaking the bank. For instance, have that slice of chocolate cake. Dark Chocolate has been proven to help women maintain low BMIs.  Also, you can take time to buy yourself flowers. Try a bubble bathroom to slow down and release daily stressors. The main objective is to do small things more frequently to actually enjoy the life you're living.

Get Me Bodied

Looking for that nice summer glow?  Try giving your skin a little extra TLC for the upcoming season by following these three steps:

1)      Exfoliate:  Using a mild exfoliant like Organicapure’s Delicate Body Scrub use circular movements to buff away dead skin that you may have picked up during the winter months.

2)      Rejuvenate: Reward your skin with a great Anti-Oxidant Cream that will repair damage caused by harsh climates. We love Hylunia Ultimate Antioxidant Cream.

3)      Hydrate:  Lastly get glowing by applying a rich cream like Belle Butter’s Unyevu Butter.  The butter made of mango, apricot, and neem oil helps to nourish the skin without the heavy texture found in most winter lotions.

5 Summer Make-Up Tips

The key to wearing make-up in the summer is to keep it LIGHT. It's best to do away with  the heavy liner, lipsticks, foundation. Opt for a primer, BB cream, or even CC Cream instead of foundation.  A bronzer in loose powder form should be your best friend.  It's great for enhancing that summer tan you've been working on! Do away with heavy lipsticks, which can give a wintery feel, and go for a tinted lip balm.  And most importantly, makes sure every product you use provides SPF protection. The key to a flawless summer look is foremost healthy skin! 

Spring Trend: Jumpsuits

If you're looking for a way to update your Spring closet, make sure you get "The Jumpsuit" Spring's hottest new trend. Look glam without putting on your typical body hugging dress. You can dress it up or dress it down, belt it, or go strapless. Will you fall into this hot trend? Ladies, Zara currently has a variety of Spring/Summer jumpsuit that are very reasonably priced. 

Knuckle Rings

​Knuckle rings are ALL the new rage this summer. A simple and stylish way to accessorize any outfit. Stack them sky high or rock one on each individual finger! Checkout the celebs rocking their knuckle rings below: 

The Folk-Soultress Lianna Havas
