Tips & How-Tos
On a recent trip to my favorite hair salon, Azar Salon in Atlanta, owner Michael Azar helped me finally find the answer I needed to the burning question: which is better, gloss or glaze?
Q: My natural red hair looks dull and is starting to show a few gray streaks. I’d like to try a gloss or a glaze, but what’s the difference?
A: A gloss adds shine, adjusts the tone and lasts two to four weeks. A glaze coats the shaft with shine and semi-permanent color.
My choice: I went with a semi-permanent glaze that looks super natural, covers the gray and gives me healthy shine. Love it!

Need to transform yourself into a bronzed beauty in a flash but don’t know where to start? I am obsessing over the look I created this week by simply mixing two parts of my all-time favorite moisturizer, Palmer’s Cocoa Butter, with one part Pür Minerals Eternal Summer Body Bronzer. Apply to the skin as you would any lotion, and in a flash you’ve got a streak-free glow, complete with subtly shimmering copper and gold undertones. It’s a super simple way to step into summer with confidence!
It’s no secret that too much time in the sun can take its toll on your skin. But did you know that UV damage is also the no. 1 cause of premature aging?

And with Pür’s SPF complexion care products, you’ll not only get the protection you need, you’ll also get a ton of other look-perfecting benefits—from flawless coverage to age-defying skincare.
