LIVEWIRE Rock n' Roll Canned Cocktails, Good Last Minute Holidays Gifts & Drinks & Thank God Gifts Year-Around.

 By Laura Medina

Created by renowned LA Bartender Aaron Polsky, LiveWire Drinks is all about the people, putting the creators of these delicious drinks front and center by making their involvement more than just a recipe, but also the image of the brand and the benefactors of their sales. If bartenders are the new rock stars, then LiveWire is a new record label. Polsky is working with the world's best bartenders to create exceptional canned cocktails using the best ingredients.

Created in Los Angeles and produced in Ventura, CA, LiveWire Drinks is the canned craft cocktail line from Aaron Polsky, one of the country’s most seasoned bartenders most recently of Hollywood hotspot Harvard & Stone.  The brand is now available everywhere in the U.S. online through www.livewiredrinks.com as well as in select specialty shops in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and San Diego.

Heralded by KCRW’s Evan Kleiman as the rockstar of the Los Angeles bartender scene, Polsky lives and breathes rock ‘n’ roll and the art of drink making.  It’s no surprise that LiveWire’s first offering and his most famous cocktail the Heartbreaker was conceived at Coachella. When it emerged at the festival it was very originally called the Tequila Grapefruit Mule and it sold like gangbusters. “I’d made it at a bunch of events since, and it kind of became my go-to. I played around and tweaked it for the LiveWire release,” says Polsky.  The result is a crisp and juicy blend of vodka, oroblanco grapefruit, kumquat, jasmine and ginger, with notes of honey and a bubbly finish, it’s a delightful combination of an expertly crafted Moscow Mule and the best Paloma you’ve ever had.

 

LiveWire presents Honeydew Collins is an electrifying mix of gin, honeydew, lime leaf, coconut and elderflower created by fellow Harvard & Stone alum Joey Bernardo and Golden God is a sensational 7.5% ABV sparkling concoction of rye whiskey and brandy with green tea, elderflower and apricot flavors created by Aaron Polsky.

 

Decked out in specially designed aluminum cans featuring artwork from tattoo artists like Henry Lewis (Skull & Sword - SF; Incognito Tattoo, Memoir Tattoo – LA) for Golden God and Heartbreaker and Talley Matthew for Honeydew Collins, LiveWire brings the taste one can only find in cool bars created by their top bartenders to the masses.

“The Best Canned Cocktail” – New York Magazine

 

“To be clear, this isn’t a Cosmo in a can. But the Heartbreaker hits many of the same notes: a crisp vodka base and a citrusy core of sweet-tart grapefruit intertwined with kumquat, jasmine and ginger.”

– Wine Enthusiast

 

“All the drinks are made at Ventura Spirits, with the first being Polsky’s recipe for the Heartbreaker. The can is wrapped with an illustration that looks like it came from an angsty teenager’s sketchbook, drawn by tattoo artist Henry Lewis. It features the torso of a man in zebra-print skinny jeans with a studded belt and a devil’s head on his jacket. The cocktail inside is a punchy, refreshing banger of oroblanco, grapefruit, jasmine, ginger and kumquat with vodka.” – Los Angeles Times

 Look for releases by Yael Vengroff (Los Angeles’ Spare Room) to arrive in early 2021.

This past November, canned craft cocktail line LiveWire Drinks dazzled judges at the L.A. Spirits Awards earning multiple medals in the ‘Ready-To-Drink Cocktails’ category. Out of the six medals awarded in the class, LiveWire Drinks—a newcomer to canned cocktails this year--took home three with two Silver Awards for Aaron Polsky for his Golden God and Heartbreaker cans and a Bronze Award for Joey Bernardo’s Honeydew Collins. L.A.Spirits Awards panelists include spirits experts and influencers from the L.A. spirits scene and beyond, combining well-trained palates with forward-thinking ideas about where the spirits market is and should be headed. 

Lightweight Youth Spray, Magari. Used by Khloe Kardashian, Jen Atkin, and Mindy Weiss.

 By Laura Medina

https://magariskincare.com/products/eternal-youth

For a liquid rich in moisture-binding/anti aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid, fatty acids, marine extracts, reseveratrol and PCA, it's pretty lightweight, that it's a spray, you spray all over, from face to neck to chest.  It's also light enough to use through a hot, dry season or climate.

Rich in moisture-binding/ Anti aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid, fatty acids, marine extracts, resveratrol and PCA. This complex combines potent antioxidants like Vitamin C, E, biotin, and is boosted with peptides to help stimulate collagen production. Micronutrients help enhance skin tone and neutralize impurities while humectants provide hydration. Liquid Youth evens out complexion, increases collagen/elastin synthesis, inhibits the formation of wrinkles and lessen the appearance of deep expression lines. This elixir firms and re-plumps the skin restoring its youthful glow.

NaPca - This ingredient is one of the major components of our skins’ natural moisturizing factor. Our skin naturally contains PCA, but as we age these levels drop quite considerably. In the world of skincare, it is considered an important humectant, this is due to the fact that it is extremely water absorbent and can hold several times its weight in water, thus helping to reduce loss of moisture.

Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract - Native to the cold Antarctic Ocean, Pseudoalteromonas is a genus of marine bacteria with many different species. In 1988, a new species named Pseudoalteromonas Antarctica was isolated from mud samples collected from the inlet Admiralty Bay, on King George Island, Antarctica. During growth, this species of bacteria produces an exopolymer of glycoproteins believed to help the bacteria retain water, adhere to surfaces, and withstand the extreme cold. Its protective function in nature has been applied in beauty products to regenerate and protect the skin.In skin care products, Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract promotes skin regeneration by stimulating keratinocyte growth and fibroblast adhesion. In vitro testing found that this extract could increase the production of collagen and elastin, which results in wrinkle reduction. In vivo testing revealed that Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract could increase skin hydration in cold weather and also decrease the depth of wrinkles around the eyes. Lastly, Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract is said to be ideal for oily and combination skin because in can reduce excess sebum (oil) production, leading to less shininess and smaller pores.

Resveratrol - Inflammation contributes to physical signs of aging. Resveratrol also upregulates collagen IV, which over time promotes elasticity and produces a microlifting of the skin. In a 28-day trial using pichia/resveratrol ferment, participants reported a noticeable improvement in fine lines and skin tone researchers have found a way to make it more potent by fermenting it. They've used a microorganism called Pichia pastoris in this process, which feeds on the resveratrol and metabolizes it completely. The resulting byproduct is both anti-inflammatory and helps to stimulate collagen production.

Citrus Aurantium Dulcis- better known as the orange, is packed with alpha hydroxy acids to stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis (stimulates new skin cell growth) and minimizes damage caused by the sun. The fruit extract and oil comes from the flesh of the orange and exhibits remarkable exfoliating properties, smoothing fine lines, replenishing moisture in the skin, and increases the thickness of the epidermis. Orange fruit extract is a natural anti-aging ingredient (increases collagen production, smoothens the appearance of fine lines, brightens skin and impedes the development of wrinkles). It has even demonstrated significant effects on keratinization.

Peptides - Applying natural peptides for skin topically may increase your body’s production of peptides for skin. While collagen molecules are too large to penetrate the skin, peptides are small enough to penetrate the skin, [and] when applied topically, they signal the skin to repair itself." In response to these signals, your skin boosts its production of collagen peptides.

Hyaluronic Acid - (Sodium hyaluronate)has a smaller molecular size as HA (making it especially penetrative), and is able to hold more water than any other natural substance—up to 1,000 times its weight in water! Thanks to these to attributes, when applied topically to the skin it can reach deep down into the dermis to combine with, maintain and attract water. It also promotes skin/blood microcirculation and nutrient absorption, and helps maintain normal metabolism. Thanks to its super-sized hydrating properties, sodium hyaluronate will result in smoother, softer skin with decreased wrinkles and an all-around fuller appearance.

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (green tea) - topical application of green tea leaves or extracts have many benefits for skin, including anti-aging properties. The polyphenols in green tea possess potent antioxidant and skin-soothing properties, and show significant promise for improving the appearance of sun-damaged skin.

Think of Magari as a last-minute gift for others and yourself.

TUNE-IN: MORGAN WALLEN SET FOR SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE DEBUT (12/5)

 By Laura Medina

Fresh off his fourth consecutive Country radio #1, Big Loud/Republic Records’ Morgan Wallen will serve as the musical guest on this weekend’s edition of NBC’s Saturday Night Live with host Jason Bateman.

Wallen will perform two songs from his highly anticipated sophomore double album, Dangerous: The Double Album, releasing January 8, 2021. Earlier this week, the album broke records at Apple Music, becoming the most pre-added Country album in the platform’s history. Wallen also became the first artist in the history of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart to debut two titles inside the chart’s Top 10 with new releases “Somebody’s Problem” and “Still Goin Down.”

The CMA New Artist of the Year’s current single, “7 Summers,” is Top 30-and-soaring at Country radio and is one of TIME’s 10 Best Songs of 2020, praised as “one of this summer’s foremost anthems” with “Wallen’s watercolor guitars serving as a portal to a sunkissed state of mind.”

Morgan Wallen has staked his claim as Country music’s next superstar with 3 BILLION+ on-demand streams, MULTI-PLATINUM certifications, and four consecutive chart-toppers. "Unapologetically fresh and modern” (The Tennessean), the dynamic Tennessee native has been riding a red hot streak since 2017, collecting accolades including the 2020 CMA Award for New Artist of the Year, Best New Country Artist at the 2020 iHeartRadio Music Awards, Billboard’s #1 song of 2019 on both the Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts (multi-week #1 “Whiskey Glasses”) and named one of PEOPLE’s Ones to Watch, plus high-profile features in the Los Angeles Times, Associated Press, The Washington Post, Genius, and more. Wallen proved crossover appeal with 3X PLATINUM Diplo collaboration "Heartless," and previewed his highly anticipated sophomore album, Dangerous: The Double Album due out 1/8, with New Year’s surprise drop “This Bar,” #1 single “More Than My Hometown,” and record-breaking Top 30 smash "7 Summers," which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and inside the Billboard Hot 100’s Top 10.

Not Your Grandparents' Drive-Ins. "The Happiest Season" Drive-In Premiere, "Stranger Things" Drive-In Performance Art, & Lexus Culinary Cinema Screening with Way Better Food & Service.

 By Laura Medina

This current pandemic quarantine has forced us to work our brains in new ways, what we call "pivot."

We unknowingly revitalized all but forgotten American tradition of the drive-in movie.

It's not your grandparents' drive-in, no making out in the dark, producing your parents.

Thanks to social distancing, there are guest attendants making sure everything is clean and proper.  They're not CORVID-19 nazis.  If act prime and proper, they're nice enough to help you in directing traffic, parking, and snack, cocktails to-go, and meal delivery.

The really smart folks at HULU, realize now is a great and jolly time to premiere a fresh tv movie to an entertainment-starving audience, in time for the holidays, drive-in premiere of "The Happiest Season." A first time a Christmas movie centers on a lesbian relationship with a gay best friend. Realism.

Shown in the majestic Malibu gem of Calamigos Ranch, Hulu's "The Happiest Season" Drive-In is the new drive-in.  Yes, people can tailgate.  The snack bar is replaced with a chic concession stand selling warm nacho with beer and wine.

This was this past Sunday.  "The Happiest Season" will air on Hulu tonight.

Drive-Ins are the new ways to premiere.

Dying for performance art?

"Stranger Things" Drive-In has dancers, aerialists, and monsters performing in-between snippets of the episodes.

Great for bored tweens and teens.  Since they want the guests to keep on moving and stay in their cars, no making-out.  So, a great date option for teens.

This trend reporter is disappointed with majority of drive-ins are airing old movies, due to the last-minute pivot and flip and not having enough to book fresh, new, and upcoming movies and tv shows that need to be released, to keep the industry going.

However, Lexus Culinary Cinema is doing their best with pairing gourmet meals to the movies, in one weekend two weeks ago.

Professionally delivered to your car, politely packed in a thermal cooler, your gourmet comes with utensils and cleansing wipes.  The thermal cooler can be used later for other drive-ins. You can bring your own meals or for picnicking and other drive-in events.

Affordable, Accessible,& Effective Clarisma Skincare for Anyone and Everyone, Clarisse DeJohn's Idea with Ameann DeJohn.

 By Laura Medina

Ameann and Clarisse DeJohn

Having the perks of growing in the skincare and spa industry with an industry and product developer mom Ameann DeJohn, Clarisse was bombarded by friends asking her for skincare advice that was effective, affordable, and accessible.  This is how you form a good skincare habit and routine.

Out of that, came Clarisma, https://clarismabeauty.com/, fresh fruit enzymes-based skincare that offers luxury brand quality at friendly affordable prices in approachable locations, like CVS https://www.cvs.com/shop/brand-shop/c/clarisma, Rite Aid, https://www.riteaid.com/shop/catalogsearch/result/?q=clarisma+beauty, and Ulta, https://www.ulta.com/brand/clarisma

Clarisse and her spa/luxury skincare industry mom, Ameann, achieved the impossible, luxury brand-quality skincare with clean, vegan and effective-proven ingredients (regularly used in spas) at affordable prices in accessible locations, giving people the chance to build good skincare habits.

            https://clarismabeauty.com/collections/products/products/moisturizer

Both this skincare-loving scribe and Clarisse enthuse about Cali Dreaming Cream Daily Moisturizer, https://clarismabeauty.com/collections/products/products/moisturizer .  Clarisse calls it, "Skincare in a Bottle." Formulated with Bamboo extract to fight against any shiny residue and leave behind a naturally matte finish. Neem Oil unclogs pores and works as a gentle substitute for anti-aging that restores the skin’s natural moisture. Not only does the Cali Dreaming Cream deliver sensational hydration but it also works as a makeup primer.

Cali Dreaming Cream Daily Moisturizer can be used as an evening/night makeup primer or as all-natural makeup blur.  Yet at the same time, it works as skincare, where Pineapple (Bromelain) Enzyme and Papaya (Papain) Enzyme breaks down dead skin cells that causes clogged breakouts, pigmentation, and dullness while leaving a smooth, radiant surfaces for easier, smoother makeup applications.

According to Clarisse's skincare and spa industry mom, Ameann, dead skin cells are the roots of all evils, very bad cruddy complexion and clogging pores, leading up to acne then acne scars, that are even harder to erase.

https://clarismabeauty.com/collections/products/products/scrub

With having Clarisma Beauty skincare being enzyme-based, people can have effective, safe, and all-natural skincare that can clean and care the skin at the same time. Pairing fruit and plant enzymes with Plumeria/Monoi Oil that protects, hydrates and provides vital nutrients; while Neem Oil rids skin of impurities that cause breakouts.  These botanical oils counteracts the enzymes while comforting the skin.

Ameann says being too dependent on too-strong enzymes and exfoliation can be destructive, more damage than good, thinning the skin layer, and inflammation.  It's like a runner who runs too much.  This is why they include natural oils to ease it.

Since the mother and daughter team picked ingredients that are good for everyone and every skin type and complexion, they took the guess work out of skincare, "You don't have to be a scientist shopping at Ulta."

Clarisma wants quality, clean skincare to be simple and easy.  They included kits to get folks started, https://clarismabeauty.com/collections/kits

Since Clarisse inspired Clarisma, mom Ameann stated this goes beyond skin deep. Ameann stated Clarisma is a lifestyle and empowerment brand.

Ameann, "It's Clarisse's idea. Clarisma is an empowerment story. Having an idea then taking it to the next level."

The idea of Clarisma may had started when Clarisse was seven but she took it to many levels up, as a Fashion Institute of Design, Intimate Apparel major. Clarisse takes what she learns in abode graphic designs in the product development for Clarisma's packaging and fonts.

Yes, Clarisma takes it to the next level in empowering in what you got; what you know; and it's clean skincare for all skin complexions for anyone at affordable prices in approachable retailers.
