Don’t forget your Sunblock!

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

Summer---SunWhoever said that sunblock can only be worn and applied through thick messy lotions or creams was not very creative!Most Bare Escentuals mineral products include SPF including their latest addition of Bisque multi-tasking mineral (their concealer line). Dr. Hauschka’s SPF lip balm has been known to be used on the face. And we can’t forget to mention our favorite spray on Sunblock. That’s right spray on sunblock made just for the face.

Some of our loves (and most of them all-natural, bio-friendly & green of course!):

The 80’s are back

Thursday, April 9th, 2009
Bold in-your-face colors are splashing everywhere: from bright hues of greens & blues eyeshadows on our eyes, yellow painted nails to hot pink kissable lips. Yet, out of them all, PURPLE is the trendiest color of the season.

Putting on purple is a tad intimidating at first, but not to dismay as a little can also go a long way. And why is it so trendy you ask? It’s not only a gorgeous hue of brilliant brightness, but a splash of it on your face can make the barest of skin come alive.

::..Our Purple Power make-up tip of the day..::
Dibble dabble any shade of purple (we like the metallic ones for an extra POP) on the top of your eyelids and don’t be shy to apply from your lash line up to your eye crease. Then for an extra bit of purple pizzaz, dip your finger or favorite eye-brush in that pot of purple eye-shadow and apply on the BOTTOM of your eyelids [YES, we said BOTTOM] from the inner corners to the middle. 

You COULD apply to the entire bottom ends of your eyes when applying it on the bottom eyelids, but we think that look is more for the evening. And for an even more dramatic evening look, apply the Purple Pizzaz eyeshadow above your crease line (about half way up to your eye brow line). VOILA~

And the rest of us are trying our best to cover up our darkened sun (a.k.a. AGE) spots.

No matter what you use to cover-up…

Summer is approaching, how to prepare

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

 

As the weather warms up, we dream more frequent dreams of basking in the sun and sporting a delicious golden bronze tan.  Where to start?  What to do?

First of all, there is no need to replace your foundation for a darker color ? it?s not worth it! Mineral make-up is made to be VERSTILE.  The combination of your regular foundation color and Original Mineral Veil might be too light for summer.  And updating your summer color chemistry formula can be done in one easy step!

Simply swap out your Original Mineral Veil with Tinted Mineral Veil and a splash of Warmth (All-Over-Face Mineral).  Or get real creative and mix-in Warmth to your Original Mineral Veil to create your own ?Tinted Mineral Veil.?

Random Tidbit: Tinted Mineral Veil is in-fact a blend of Mineral Veil and Warmth.

Adding Warmth will add a nice golden glow to your already radiant skin and can even create a perfect faux-tan when applied all-over!
