Kick Off FALL....

....with a BOLD lip color.
BET.com

Try it at least once this week. You might be pleasantly surprised at how much you like it. Putting your lips "on" really does give you a more finished look with your appearance. I almost always make sure to "put my lips on" when stepping out....even if it's just to the grocery store, and it's just gloss. But why not try going bold..tis the season!



Need to be eased in?
You can still go BOLD but do it softly. Cameron is wearing a nice soft shade of red, which is making a statement but it's still on the softer side of a dark lip color.

Good Rule of thumb: If you choose to go darker than your natural lip colour, try going no darker than two shades. This will give you the best over all look with your make up.

What's the best color for you?

Dark skin: Red wines, plums (deep purples), copper and browns.

Olive skin: Brownish reds, light browns and raisin shades

Fair & Medium skin: roses, mauves and berries

Cuidate!

Brown IT Up


As we are all aware of with fall comes all of these beautiful fall colors. There is something to be said about changing the color scheme up with not only our clothes, but all the shades of our makeup as well....I LOVE it!! Browns are always such a beautiful dark color to go with on the eye. They are a subtle tone of darkness that can create a melancholic, mysterious aura to the eye....matching the mood of the seasoning. I love browns because they can create a toned down bold/smokey look, bring a little neutrality to the eye and they are great accent colors. Here are some colors that work well with many shades of brown and give the eye lids a beautiful POP! Gold, Black, Plum and Teal.


The look from the picture above was created with A deep chocolate brown and a golden shade as well. Application is as follows:


" For this look, a chocolate brown with a slight shimmer was used as a wash all over the eye lid and blended up into the crease of the eye. Black eye shadow was used to smudge along the top and bottom lashes while a soft golden eye shadow was used to highlight the brow bone"

Cuidate!

Black Out

So I know that Labor Day is right around the corner, which means that some of you follow the no opened toe "rule". I am not one that has always followed it because we always still have such beautiful weather through out September in Colorado, and I know that once I put my sandals away they are not coming back out for a good amount of time. Being that darker colors are resurfacing due to Fall rolling in, now is a great time to try black on your nails. I know that this has been popular for a while, but I also know there are many of you that feel like black is a little extreme. It might feel like it at first, but it actually looks pretty good on the toes, and I love it on the finger nails. Plus it always go with everything. I think if you try it out, you will be pleasantly surprised at how good it actually does look. So, if you have wanted to try this popular color out, now is a great time to go for it.





* Just can't do the black? Then try a dark blue.....



.....or even a grey. These are both great alternative colors to the black, that look good, and they are different from the usual wine reds, and dark purples that we see when using darker colors on our nails.


Have a great weekend that is almost HERE!!

I heard this just a couple of days ago, and wanted to share, encourage and inspire you: "A way to conquer fear is through knowledge"
