TheTrendSpotter Includes Platinum Long Lash Serum on It's Best Eyelash Serum List

The Trend Spotter, a digital publication focused on keeping readers up to date on what’s cool and trendy, includes Dr. Lara Devgan’s Scientific Beauty Platinum Long Lash Serum as one of the best serums for lashes. Alex Linde’s “15 Best Eyelash Serums for Fuller Longer Lashes” article, touches on how lash serums are meant to strengthen, lengthen, and grow your eyelashes. Linde emphasized the importance of knowing what is in your products, and keeping in mind that not all serums have the same results. 

The article highlights popular and effective over the counter serums and specifies the key ingredients that achieve results. Ingredients such as biotin, peptides, panthenol, and hyaluronic acid are elements that enhance the lashes over an extended period of use. “Biotin...strengthens the hair’s keratin. Then, there’s peptides, panthenol, or hyaluronic acid, all of which restore moisture to the lashes, reducing breakage and making them look thicker” says Linde. 

Coming in at the top of the list is one of Dr. Devgan Scientific Beauty’s best sellers, Platinum Long Lash Serum. Linde shares, “The active ingredients in the formula are vitamin B5, Phyto-peptides, and clover flower extract. They improve the hair follicles, and provide nutrients from the roots to the tips, to result in longer, thicker eyelashes.” 

Achieving results is simple. Apply the product to the root of clean eyelashes, using the fine tip applicator at least once a day. If done everyday, users should achieve full results after 5-6 months.

Celebrity Make-up Artist shares her must-have beauty products for an at-home spa day

Celebrity makeup artist, Erin Parsons, who works on faces such as Gigi Hadid, has shared her at-home spa day routine with Popsugar. The end goal of her routine? Extra hydration and moisture. According to Parsons, no at-home spa day is complete without the Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30. 

The Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 is our cult-favorite lip plumper that not only temporarily increases the size of one's lips, but has been proven to improve the softness, hydration, and pink coloration of lips as well. Unlike other lip plumpers, the Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 contains all-natural ingredients, vitamins, and minerals. The hydrating ingredient that Erin is referring to is the mixed-molecular hyaluronic acid. This ingredient is what hydrates and nourishes the lips while penetrating the vermillion tissue and hydrating the surface of the lips.

Whether you are having a spa day, going out to lunch, hosting a gathering, or running errands, the Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 is perfect for anyone who wants a little bit extra for their pout. For best results, we recommend carefully applying the gloss inside the lip lines on clean, dry lips. If you would like to watch the entire video and read the article, click here.

Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 is one of the Who What Wear beauty obsessions

Who What Wear, an online blog for the latest in celebrity fashion, trends, and beauty, recently posted an article highlighting the editor's best new beauty obsessions. It comes to no surprise that the Dr. Lara Devgan Scientific Beauty Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 made the cut. This take on our original Platinum Lip Plump is just as good and includes SPF 30--perfect for your summer.

Erin Jahns, beauty editor for Who Wear What, chose the Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 because the perfect lip plumper is her one of her desert-island beauty products. In her own words, she "officially met the lip plump of all lip plumpers." With just one, simple swipe on the lips, "it's the most effective and fast-working lip-plumping elixir [she] has ever tried." What makes the Platinum Lip Plump different from others on the market? Our formula includes niacin, mixed-molecular weight hyaluronic acid, and ceramides, which together give the lips just the right amount of shininess and plumpness.

For best results, we advise that you apply the gloss on clean, dry lips. Be careful to stay inside the lip lines as if some gets on your skin the niacin will cause minor flushing to the area. If this happens, it is no worry and warm water with soap will help. You can also apply the Platinum Lip Plump over top of your favorite shade of lipstick! To read the entire article, click here.

Glamour interviews Dr. Devgan about "the rise of 'tweakments'"

Glamour magazine, the main online source for all things fashion and beauty, featured an article interviewing Dr. Devgan about the rise of a trend called ‘tweakments,’ in which writer Deanna Pai explores the meaning of the term.

With the popularity of Instagram and the increased visibility of Instagram ‘influencers,’ cosmetic surgery took off. The social media trend for cosmetic surgery was big and dramatic, with large volume in the lips and more noticeable changes to the face. The dramatic Instagram trend is now losing popularity though, while the more subtle ‘tweakment,’ is gaining traction.

Dr. Devgan says, “A tweakment is not different from an injectables treatment per se, but I think of it as a minimal refinement to your existing anatomy,. It’s designed to be a subtle improvement rather than a major change.”

 As we move away from Instagram trends, “most people want to feel like the best version of themselves, rather than look like someone else,” says Dr. Devgan. “This is the essence of tiny tweakments: They allow us to preserve the feeling of facial identity while optimizing global facial beauty.”

People are less interested in the “frozen” look that comes to mind when people think of botox, instead opting for more natural injections that provide a refreshed and a “did you get an extra hour of sleep?” illusion.

“If you appreciate the paradoxical notion of wanting to look the same but better, or the idea of a subtle change that you’ll see but others won’t notice, then you may be a good candidate for a tweakment,” Dr. Devgan is quoted as saying.

“A tweakment can address anything where millimeters matter—asymmetry of your eyebrows, unwanted fine lines around your eyes, a bump on your nose, thinning of your lips, dull skin quality, or even a combination of all of those things,” Devgan says. The key is addressing these things on a micro scale, with small changes that add up to a more youthful appearance without any single part attracting attention,” says Dr. Devgan.

Sold out on Sephora: Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30

Stylecaster, your online source for the latest fashion trend reports, shopping guides and celebrity style news, highlights Dr. Devgan’s Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30. Elizabeth Denton, Stylecaster contributor, has been a fan of lip plump since high school, however when one flew off the shelves of Sephora instantaneously, she knew she had to try it for herself.

What makes the Platinum Lip Plump different from leading lip plumps? The formula is all-natural and the plumping agent is niacin (vitamin B3). Instead of using harsh ingredients like cinnamon, menthol, or capsacin that commonly irritate one’s lips, niacin gently vasodilates the lip tissue, turning them a pink shade and increasing the size. Not only does the Platinum Lip Plump plump, hydrate, and gloss one’s lips, but the new version for summer—Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30— also protects your lips as well.

To use this product, apply a generous coat to the lips, making sure to stay inside the lip line. It causes a temporary mild tingling sensation to the lips. If it comes in contact with the skin, it will cause a harmless mild flushing (due to the niacin); you may wipe the product clean with water. Elizabeth has longed for lip filler since using the Platinum Lip Plump, but will continue to apply the gloss whenever she wants “a little boost.” You can purchase the Platinum Lip Plump SPF 30 here.

Forbes interviews Dr. Devgan on how she is changing the world of beauty post COVID-19

With the recent spread of COVID-19, the world of elective cosmetic procedures has changed drastically. Forbes interviewed Dr. Devgan, New York City-based board-certified plastic surgeon, about how COVID-19 has impacted her, her practice, her patients, and her skincare line. Although it has been a challenging period, it has only allowed for growth.

Even though Dr. Devgan’s medical office was closed during the peak of COVID-19, she still found ways to pivot, adapt, and grow. While her kids were learning online and employees working from home, Dr. Devgan was able to focus on other details she typically does not have as much time for. Not to mention, donate tens of thousands of dollars of PPE to hospitals and healthcare workers, list her ventilators, and volunteer to see emergency facial trauma cases. During this time in quarantine, Dr. Devgan had time to reflect and questioned: “What does beauty mean in a post-Covid world? How can we make something that has often been dismissed as frivolous and superficial into something that adds to the quality and fabric of our lives?” Dr. Devgan believes the answer to these questions is ultimately that beauty is confidence. “Pretty skin and long eyelashes are not about how your face looks. They are about how you feel about yourself, and how you radiate that confidence into greater productivity in the world around you.” 

Going off of this, since Dr. Devgan’s medical office was closed, allowing for her to focus on her luxury medical-grade skincare line, Dr. Lara Devgan Scientific Beauty. “With everyone on home quarantine, being forced to reckon with their botox wearing off and their unflattering zoom angles, the interest in medical-grade skin care has grown measurably.” It came to our surprise that skincare sales grew 500% since quarantine, and that is because people are using this time to take care of themselves, avoid makeup, and use products that will transform their skin. Not to mention, Dr. Devgan is offering personalized skincare consultations via DM and email. If you are interested in having Dr. Devgan determine which products would benefit you most, please email Beauty@LaraDevganMD.com or DM @DrLaraDevgan photos of your skin and your main concerns. 

In the end, “safety and health are always paramount. Beauty and elective procedures will always come second, and only to the extent that we can guarantee health and safety first.” That being said, now that Dr. Devgan’s medical office is now open, there are many more health and safety precautions that are made prior to coming in for an appointment. As for the face of beauty post COVID-19, Dr. Devgan predicts that a more natural approach to plastic surgery will rise.
