Tip-Of-The-Day: February 6, 2011

Tip: Choose eye shadow powders that feel smooth, not dust to the touch, since powders can sometimes look cakey and exaggerate lines. Apply with a soft, domed shadow brush to blend into creases and corners.

Tip-Of-The-Day: February 5, 2011

Tip: It takes 30 minutes for sunscreen to absorb fully into your skin, so put it on before going outside and reapply every two hours; perspiration, heat, and swimming can diminish the SPF's efficacy.

Tip-Of-The-Day: February 4, 2011

Tip: Concealer should ALWAYS follow foundation; if you put it on first and then blend foundation, the foundation will remove some of the concealer.

Concealer: MAC Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer ($16.50)

January Favorites!

Hey everyone!

Here are my favorite beauty products for the month of January:

Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer
I love this! It evens out my skin tone and doesn't dry my skin out, although since I have severely dry skin by the end of the day I have flakes on my face.

Urban Decay Alice In Wonderland Palette
I've rekindled my love with this palette! I haven't used it in a while and I pulled it out at the beginning of the month and started using it again! You can't get this exact palette anymore, but Urban Decay has a ton of palettes to choose from. None of the colors inside were limited edition.

Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner
Best. Gel. Eyeliner. Ever. It's super black and really cheap. I love it!

Love ya!

Tip-Of-The-Day: February 3, 2011

Tip: Turn broken and cracked eyeshadow by crushing it and adding a dab of vaseline or eye cream until you get it to the right consistency. Now you have a cream shadow!

Love ya!

Tip-Of-The-Day: February 2, 2011

Tip: To make foundation that is a little too dark for you lighter, dab a little foundation on your hand, then squeeze a pea-size dot of SPF 30 on top and mix until the sunscreen and foundation blend completely. Once it is blended, it will be lightened a shade or two. This tip is great for foundation that you use in the summer!

Love ya!

Tip-Of-The-Day: February 1, 2011

Tip: Cream highlighters are denser than luminizing lotions, so use them only on areas you want to highlight, like the inner corners of your eyes, the cupids bow, and under your brow bones.

Highlighter: NARS The Multiple
Copacabana - for light-medium skin tones.
South Beach - for medium-dark skin tones.
