SEPHORA COLLECTION: Cream lip stain- Always Red 01 Review + HOW TO WEAR IT THE SEXY CLASSY WAY

PURCHASE SEPHORA COLLECTION LIP STAIN HERE!!!!!!

We all know red lips are sexy, but we also know they could be SEXY CLASSY or SEXY TRASHY! 

HERE ARE SOME TIPS ON HOW TO KEEP IT LADY LIKE:

Well, everyone should own a red lipstick, lip stain or lip liner. Period!

Tip #1: Use a lip liner before applying a lip stain. This will give you a better direction of where to apply your lip stain and avoid smudging the edge of your lips. 

The thing with most lip stains, is that when putting it on you have to be very careful not to mess up because its so permanent, wiping a little mistake will give you a smudged look around your lips. You don't want that! So take your time when putting it on.

Tip#2: Use mascara and blush when putting this lipstain on. Otherwise your lips will look ridiculous if you have a clean face with red lips.

And that's not just with this lipstain it's with all lipsticks. When you wear a bright color on your lips with nothing on your eyes or cheeks all the attention goes to your lips and not in a good way! It makes your lips look HUGE! Wear a little blush at least!! or if you are a bronzer type of girl bronzer works perfectly fine.

Tip#3: DO NOT skip mascara application.

Also, keep your eye shadow soft and neutral. Don't  wear a heavy bright shadow like purple or green because it will make you look well... Not so cute! Gold, cream and soft pink are your safest choices for shadow. Just keep it neutral!

Tip#5: Eye liner gives it that sexy touch you were looking for.

Eye liner is not necessary for this look but it gives it a nice touch! Especially if you are going out to party you want that extra umph!

Just keep it simple and classy when wearing a red lip color!

REVIEW ON SEPHORA COLLECTION LIP STAIN- ALWAYS RED
*The intensity of the color is just amazing. This red is just perfect for all skin tones. I see this color on all the girls who work at sephora and it goes great with light, medium and dark skin tones. That is just a plus plus!!! This is a REAL RED COLOR! some red lip stains or lipsticks have that orange look which makes you look older and weird. This red is so intense and matte it fits anyone any age.

*The only thing I wasn't so happy about is that it gives me a dry feeling on my mouth like I can feel the lip stain on my lips all the time. But a little lip balm afterwards will help and it will keep the look matte.

*Other than that, the color stays beautifully on your lips, it won't get on your teeth, it changes your whole face with just this color.

*The price point is just perfect. $12 compared to other lipsticks and lipstains sold at sephora this is by far the best one.

And you only need a little bit!

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Concealer

I only give reviews after using the product until it's finished or have purchased it a few times. For this product I used the whole thing and loved every single application. WOW!

 You know that Kim kardashian look everybody talks about ? Well for that look you need: concealer, highlighter, light powder etc. I mean do you really have time for that in the morning?

 (Image taken from google)

BUT with the Age Rewind concealer you can skip all those steps at once with a more natural finish!!!

Apply a small amount under your eyes. Pad and then smooth out from inner to outer side of your under eyes in a triangle shape. Best way to use is after your foundation so you can see the areas that need to be highlighted. 

ADVANTAGES:
*Hides dark circles perfectly with only one application.
*You only need a small amount at once.
*Brightens the eye area instantly
*Super smooth, no creasing, helps fine lines under eyes
*Feels like foundation, yet it stays like a regular concealer
*Stays on for 4-6 hrs I would say. So I do carry it with me for an extra dose.
*It has last me 5 months (I use it very day)
Matches your skin tone amazingly-winter and summer! Just get the right shade which is only 4 shades to choose from.
*Great prize !

DISADVANTAGES:

* I didn't see any improvement on dark circles.
*Not so crazy about the sponge, don't see it that hygienic
*My shade is the darkest shade they have which doesn't allow people with darker skin tones to try it
*Hum no more disadvantages

I've worked at Macy's for many years and I've never been pleased with a concealer as much as this.

The next best concealer was Cargo but was discontinued in Sephora and Macy's and it was $20. 

Here's the link to purchase. Otherwise buy at your local pharmacy.

PURITY MADE SIMPLE: one-step cleanser- THE BEST WATERPROOF MAKEUP REMOVER AND CLEANSER

Hey! remember that lash blast 24 hr mascara I told you all about? The best waterproof mascara ever?? Yes!! This one!!

Well I have tried different kinds of cleansers, makeup removers, waterproof, not waterproof etc. Anyway, I always end up coming back for this cleanser Purity made simple. It's award winning by Allure.

I worked for the brand PHILOSOPHY for four years and I fell in love with their cleanser. For many years I used it and I couldn't believe the great improvement it had done on my skin. I promise you my recommendations are not to benefit the brand but to benefit you with the knowledge I have aquired working in the cosmetics business.

Benefits: 
*fragrance free
*creamy
*leathers up when you massage it onto the skin
*Even's out your skin tone.
*Removes the TOUGHEST WATERPROOF mascara
*Leaves your skin hydrated

The easiest way to explain it is to say it's the creamiest most gentle cleanser/ makeup remover I have used. I have worked for other skin care brands that are known to be prestigious and nothing like this quality.

Have you ever cleansed your skin with a waterproof remover and your face looks like this after?

Well after you wash your face with Purity Made Simple your face looks like this: 

google pix example

Im not exaggerating or lying. your skin is totally clean. 

You don't believe me? Go get one and you will see. 

PURCHASE PURITY MADE SIMPLE it ranges from $10 for 3oz to $50 which is  32oz. I usually buy the $20 size because it lasts very long anyway and the price is great.

If you are not familiar with the brand start with $10 for 3oz but I tell you right now you get much more for $20 which is totally worth it.

Covergirl Lashblast 24 Hour Mascara Black 805:The BEST waterproofmascara YOU MUST OWN!!!

If you haven't tried this mascara then you must be wasting your life savings on other mascaras hoping that one day you will find THE ONE. Well, let me make your journey shorter and your life much easier!!

Here's the link to purchase : http://m.cvs.com/mt/www.cvs.com/shop/product-detail/Covergirl-Lashblast-24-Hour-Mascara-Black-805?skuId=868580

There's other stores like Duane Reade who sell it.

But before that, let me make sure I'm talking you the right audience first. Are you all about WATERPROOF MASCARA? Do you want a mascara that won't move no matter what? Won't smudge no matter what? That if you cry (for joy I'm hoping) wont smear??? And doesn't want to spend a fortune for mascara?

If you are not part of this audience make sure you share the secret with your girls who do want this kind of mascara please :)

I do many bridal makeovers, and after I found this mascara I wouldn't change it for anything. Who would think that a $10 mascara would do that? Best example of my life is my mother's bridal makeover. The w
oman who cries her eyes out for anything oh man. Her wedding was last year on March. I needed to make sure this woman was going to look FABOLOUS the WHOLE DAY!! I did it people, I did it!!! Her mascara never moved, she looked so amazing. After the wedding she bought the mascara, she just had to.

Ok, forget the example. MY EXPERIENCE with this lash blast mascara:
Black black black! Won't move at all ( you are going to need a great makeup remover for this one though ) that's the only disadvantage: the removing of the mascara. But with the right cleanser/makeup remover you are good to go! Purity cleanser from Philosophy is the only cleanser I have used that will remove it completely. I will blog about this cleanser next.

It's only $10, and it gives you that false lash look . When I put it on my lashes look 50% longer and 50% thicker. So if you weren't blessed with long and thick lashes then this is it! Your lashes will never come down looking sad and all that. Always up up up looking at the sky.

Here are some pictures of my personal look with this mascara.

Ladies purchase it. What is $10? Other brands are much more expensive
and nothing compared to this. Please let me know what you think. I'm sure you will love it !

EYE LINER ADDICT! What kind do you prefer? Gel, liquid or pencil?

I tried pencil eye liner back in high school when I was just learning to do my eye liner. For those who are beginners, I would say pencil is easier to apply. A great pencil eye liner should be waterproof to avoid smudging. Urban decay glide-on  eye liner pencil is amazing! 

24/7 Glide on eye pencil- zero $20. Not only does it stay for the whole day, it is so black which is what I always look for. I don't like that gray/black look eye liner on me. It must be defined. If that's what you are looking for, this is your pencil! 

However, I like very precised eye liner, not too thick which usually happens with pencil. So for years I used liquid eye liner. MAGIC INK JET BLACK LIQUID EYE LINER is perfect! I swear it's so black, to be specific, it's jet black! Doesn't move, doesn't smudge, black forever, the eye liner is so precise, easy to apply because of the length of the brush. $20 that will last you forever. You can find it at Sephora, Macy's, Bloomingdales, others. 

HOWEVER.... Gel liner is now my favorite of ALL!!!! I have used a couple, and I have to say the brand doesn't matter much because when it's gel it sticks to the skin much easier and glides on so smooth and easy. I do have to say it's a bit harder to apply compared to the pencil or liquid. So, if you are not very used to applying eye liner, this is not the best choice for you. However, every girl in the world should own a gel liner and practice, practice practice. I have used MAC MAC Fluidline gel eye liner , Inglot Inglot gel liner #77 black and others. The prices depend on the company. But if you don't want to spend $15-$20 on a gel liner, if you reside in New York they have these Beauty Supply stores that have very inexpensive makeup and hair products. beauty supply store locator. Their gel eye liner can be up to $3 and guess what? It's just as good :)

I hope this was helpful to you !!! :)

All about the BRIDESMAIDS and the mother of the bride!

The most natural makeovers I've done on bridesmaids. Why? Because that's how the bride wanted it! Don't  forget, the focus must always be on the bride. This doesn't mean you must make the bridesmaids ugly. It simply means that their makeup should not out stand the bride's makeup right? The answer is yes! 

For this bridesmaid I used the Urban decay naked palette and the BH Cosmetics 88 neutral palette. These two palettes are not that different, but these two compliment each other on the mattes and the shimmers. 

here is the link to purchase this palette which is super inexpensive, and great quality! http://www.coastalscents.com/makeup/palettes/pl-002.html 

Urban decay's palette is a bit more pricey, yet great quality and u know you will use every single shadow. Here is a link: http://www.urbandecay.com/naked-palette-eyeshadow-by-urban-decay/245,default,pd.html?utm_source=GOOGLE&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=urban%20decay%20naked%20palette&utm_campaign=Brand%20Products%20-%20Desktop%20-%20EX&gclid=COaI2ZO47LYCFUFo4Aod_nAA2Q

Very basic, smokey browns. Enjoy! 

How to Create the Leopard Lips!

HELLO EVERYONE!!! This is my first post, my first blog and my first picture! Don't we all love the leopard lips? The sexy lips we all want!! Well i wouldn't say this is wearable unless it was for a special makeup event to show off those skills or simply to feel great and sexy once in a while at home, am i right??

Things you will need:
1) long lasting liquid eye liner.
2) eye shadow base (your preference)
3) red lipstick (your preference)
4) shiny lipgloss (your preference)
How to create this look:
1) Apply the eye shadow base all over your lips. (This is to make sure that eye liner stays longer in place. You don't have to but it truly makes magic. I used Urban Decay eye shadow potion)
2) apply the red lipstick as u usually apply. Other great colors to use at hot pink.
3) apply the liquid aye liner in shapes like this -->> () and some just ( like that so it doesn't look too match match. Take your time, it doesn't need to be perfect or have a special patten. And feel sexy as you are doing it!
4) before applying the lipgloss make sure you give it a few mins to dry completely. Now apply your favorite, most glossiest lipgloss by patting it to your lips instead of gliding it on! this will make sure that your eye liner won't move.

ENJOY! Very simple, yet creative.
