Your New Spring Beauty To-Do List

Colour Boost Your Lids
Move over charcoal shadow - According to Glamour Magazine; Colourful lids are having a major moment!

Stylist Trick: Prime your lids with an eyeshadow primer or white eyeliner before layering colour on top.  This trick will make the shadow look more opaque and will add that extra pop to the look!




Add Some Texture to Your Kisser
I am sure that everyone knows all about Matted Lipstick... But here is a new trend! Ditch the Lipstick and try filling in your Lips with a Lip Pencil and dust a bright blush over the top.


Stylist Tip: If you're craving shine, add a little bit of gloss to the center of your lips.




Embrace Your Frizz
Yea, I said it! Embrace your frizzy hair because the Messy Bun is Back!!!!


Stylist Trick: Put your hair into a neat bun or ponytail and then use a Kabuki Makeup Brush to rough up the edges of your hair by brushing it back and forth.

FYI! Health & Beauty! ♥

I've got a few tips for you ladies (some of the skin care tips for the gentlemen as well lol). Be on the lookout as I will be posting random health & beauty tips here and there, possibly a few times a week. Never hurts to take care of our bodies right?! So pay attention and try a few of them out! =)

BEAUTY!
Concealer/Foundation:

If you're like me, you're not a huge fan of concealer & foundation, but sometimes it comes in handy. Here's a few tips!

1. To extend the life of your foundation or to cut down, try mixing it with a touch of your facial moisturizer.
2. When picking out your concealer/foundation, test the colour on the inside of your wrist. The skin has the LEAST amount of blemishes, and generally gives you an idea of what it will look like on your face!
3. Try applying a light additional layer of foundation after you've done your eye makeup. It makes it easier to fix any last minute smudges from either your mascara or eyeliner under your eyes.

Most of us, if not ALL of us are unfortunate enough to have to sometimes deal with those crappy bumps on our faces. Possibly the worst, being blackheads & whiteheads. Bleeeh! A way to fight them is an over-the-counter salycic acid or glycolic acid product which dissolves dead skin that clogs pores. I recommend Neutrogena! This stuff right here! -->
