Prom 2012 Make Up Trends

Whether you decide to do your make up yourself, visit a local cosmetic counter or have your mom's best friend do it make sure that you choose the prom make up look best for you.

• First always make sure your make up is age appropriate.

• Remember Make up should enhance your natural beauty not cover it up!!!

• Your make up should work in accordance with your hair and dress.......

• Bring your makeup artist a visual so that she can have an idea of what look you want to achieve.

• Decide if you want to do false eyelashes.

• Communicate with your artist let them know what is important to you!

All of these things should contribute to a successful and stress free prom make up session.

Until Next Time

Emily B's Make Up All Star Weekend

Recently I had the opportunity of doing Emily B (reality star of Love and Hip Hop) make up and hair for All Star Weekend in Orlando, FL.
I love this picture of her with Amber Rose from Friday night, we have her long loose wavy curls and a natural eye with a heavier creme liner, we kept her blush matte and hue was natural soft brown with a pop of pink on the balls of her cheek. We used on of our studio 277 cosmetic favorites Fuschia Fever to give her lips that extra uummmppphhh to last all night.
Until next time Stay FABulous.

Luscious Lips

My Recent trip to Las Vegas totally dried out my lips...uuuuurrrr.
What do you do to keep moisture locked in your luscious lips in extremely dry weather?
First off HYDRATE...HYDRATE...HYDRATE.
Increase your intake of water.
Also use a lip moisturizer, preferably something with jojoba or vitamin e.
NOT JUST VASELINE, petroleum jelly coats the lips it does not penetrate.
A good sign that your lip balm or moisturizer is effective is if you feel a slight tingle!!!
Also don't forget or be scared to use a lip scrub to get off that excess skin.
I hope this helps....
Until Next Time.

Can Any Women Wear Red Lipstick

Just the other day one of my clients asked me can women of color wear red lipstick....PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME USE PROFANITY!!!!
The answer is "HAYLE" yes!!!
First of all let’s think out of the box ladies....red does not always have to look like Ronald McDonald. There are various shades of red which include deeper burgundy shades that are red based.
Try a liner that is darker blend it out and use a deeper, cooler blue based red or cool red. Your gloss can make an impact as well use a plum or burgundy gloss on top of a red lipstick or do the reverse use a deep plum lipstick with a brighter lip gloss.
Still not sure, take a look at our red alert blog to get some ideas and if all else fails schedule your private make up consultation today.
Until next time!!!
