We Heart Illamasqua!!...

-

A while back I remember coming across an image of a woman with her face beat (translation: makeup was flawless) In this image the artist used what appeared to be a skin tone shimmer eye shadow, the shadow looked phenomenal. The shadow was ORB by ILLAMASQUA, a London based company that till recently only had international shipping on their website but did not stores overseas. While on vacation in New York I went to sephora and was delighted to see Illamasqua's products in the stores window display. I grabbed their loose pigment in Orb and am happy to report it looked exactly on my skin tone (which was much different then the woman's in the image) as it did in the image I saw. This These cosmetics are great, they come in tons of wonderful colors, highly pigmented and come in sizable containers; a little definitely does go a long way. Unfortunately for Canadian residence(like myself) Illamasqua is not available in Canada, but you can definitely order products on their website www.illamasqua.com.

Who Wants Kissable Lips?...

We all know by now that its important to exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin cells, environmental debris, makeup, and dirt. Exfoliation helps slush away old dirty skin cells to make room for new healthy cells. Our lips are no exception and need the same care, especially in the approaching fall and winter months. All you need is a toothbrush (soft bristle is best) and some Vaseline. First wet your lips with a bit of water, then apply a small amount of Vaseline to your tooth brush. Starting with your top lip and gently brush your lips in circular motion going around from top lip to bottom lip and back again. Continue brushing until you start to feel your lips becoming smooth. If you notice your lips start to peel gently continue brushing. When your done wipe off the excess Vaseline with a soft face cloth. Now apply your favorite chap stick and lip stick and your lips are kissable soft. ___________________________________________________________

Sephora Moonshadow Baked Palette...

On a recent trip to my local Sephora I was introduced to their Moonshadow Baked Palette. These palettes come in two color themes: In The Nude and In The Dark. Both palettes come with 10 baked eye shadows that can be used wet or dry. I love these shadows and believe Sephora did a great job with them and the price point of $28 is well worth it. These shadows are highly pigmented, have minimal fall out, and both palettes come in great color selections for both natural and dramatic makeup looks. This palette is a great alternative to those who don't want to pay $50 dollars for Urban Decays Naked Palette . Give these shadows a try and let us know what your think! __________________________________________________________________
