Summer Everyday Makeup

Hey guys,
I've been super busy with some work stuff, but I have a great post for you guys. Summer Everyday makeup!

Summer Makeup is so confusing for people, because everyone says different stuff, so I wanted to come up with a look that you can wear everyday or night and not look overdone.

Hayden is  my summer makeup icon, she knows how to work summer!

Moisturize SUN SCREEN AND PRIME NEVER FORGET THESE STEPS.
Start with a dewey skin, stick to tinted moisturizers/sheer/medium coverage foundations. Use a concealer instead to conceal any blemishes or acne.

Make sure to powder your face if you get a little oily.

Fill in your brows lightly, because nothing is unsexier then oscar the grouch eye brows that are smeared all over your face.

Skip the contouring and use a highlighter on your cheeks and nose area. Use concealer if you like a less shimmery look.

Skip the eye shadows for everyday and apply some liner and mascara instead. Dab a little color lip gloss or NYX matte lip creame and your ready to go.


For a night out, try applying a shimmery bronze color or gold all over your lid, and use a matte brown in your crease to define and deepen. You can even use a darker matte color eye shadow to define your crease. Add a little rouge to your lips and you're look is summer ready and very fresh faced.

V.S model Makeup Trick

Everyone wants to know what is the Secret behind Victoria's Secret Makeup!

There are at least 2 thousand Youtube tutorials trying to imitate the look, but they just never quite get it right. Well ladies I'm here to give you the one ingredient, that will blow your mind.

It's the simplest thing, yet no body has ever thought about it.












Victoria's Secret makeup artist base the gorgeous girls look on ; *Drum Roll* THE MODELS

Yes It's just that simple.
They don't have a set look, they simply have a style such as Natural with lots of contour/highlights.



 

Look at each of the models, they all have different makeup. The middle model has pinker eye shadow, while the one on the right has brown eye shadow.

It's all about individual beauty, its about making the girls look 100x better version of themselves.
The makeup artist work a more natural but with a glamor touch, they add sexy individual lashes, some black mascara and lots of highlight to give them the angelic glow.

 Here are some of my tips:

• Highlight is EVERYTHING to the angels, because you can't be an angel without a heavenly glow.Use a highlighter that works for your undertone.. Warm go for Gold / Cool go for Pink
• Lips are never overpowering and dark...Always go for a color close to your natural lip color, just slightly pinker..dab a little pink/clear gloss or balm over it. 
• Lashes are EVERYTHING..but go for individual, they look more natural, and you can wear TONS without looking like a porcupine

• BRONZER...An angel wouldn't be caught dead without a sun kissed tan or a gorgeous glow. Even if you're on the darker side, you have to use a nice tan, it will bring that glow to you.
• Fill in your brows, but be subtle..no one goes for Oscar the Grouch look in the show.
• Go easy on the Foundation, go for a Sheer-medium coverage one like Nars Sheer Glow or Maybelline Fit me
• Make use of a concealer, as that will help you use less foundation and cover your imperfections.
  
  
  
  
  
• Perfect your liner, you want to make sure you're not winging it too much if your eyes are not suitable for it. My eyes are HORRIBLE with winged liner, so I stop right at the end.
• Pick a shade of eye shadow that is neutral and complimenting your eye color and skin. 

Here are some of the models, rocking out their own individual makeup looks;

My Spring/Summer color Trend

I've been on a hunt for a sexy spring color, I'm not the one to follow trend, i like to create a trend for myself. Last summer I was obsessed with Red! My blush, nails, lipstick were all red.

This spring/summer i'm going to be rocking L'orange (orange)

I just became obsessed with NYX pumpkin blush and Milani Baked Bronzer (orangest one)
I think orange is a great color on my tanned skin, It makes me look very golden and i just have this ridiculously sexy glow.


How you can rock Orange!

Eyeshadow:

Trade in your regular old brown shadow for this spunky color, make sure to use a darker brown in your outter corner and crease for a fab summer fresh look.
 If you're really not that great with orange, opt for a sexy copper instead.

- MAC Rule Eye shadow







 L.A girl makes a great lipstick that has just the right amount of Orange, and comes off almost coral. it's called "pure ecstasy"

 This is my favorite blush, it gives me the sexiest summer glow without making me look oompa loompa-ish.
Its so sexy and I always get compliments on my skin..It's so sexy on tanned girls, trust me ladies you will LOVE it.

Just use a light hand.









Add a splash of color with your nails instead..Wet N Wild makes the sexiest orange color called Club Havana

Get rid of your Pimple/Ingrown Instantly

We all get those random horrible zits at the worst times, and while most of us let time heal it away, I almost always prefer to pop it. Why? Because i don't really get a lot of pimples, maybe one pimple every 2-3 months. My skin is super dry, and when I neglect removing my makeup due to hangover or just plain falling asleep, my skin punishes me with a pimple.

There are steps you can take to ensure when you pop your pimple, its safe, clean and painless

1. Wash your tweezers/needle with anti-bacterial soap...I recommend even dipping it in alcohol.
2. Wash your face with a facewash that has tea tree oil in it.
3. Use your tweezers to pick the "peak" of the pimple..make sure NOT to grab the whole pimple or a chunk..
   
   
   
   
4. Use your fingers to squeeze the pimple..this step is so important, a lot of people think its disgusting and for go it. This will help drain the fluids and maybe a dot of blood.
   
   
5. Wipe your pimple with tea tree oil or an all natural astringent like Witch Hazel. I tend to clean my pimple with witch hazel every few hours, but this step is entirely up to you
6. Do these steps at night, so your skin has time to relax and heal.
7. Wash your face in the morning and apply witch hazel to the area
8. make sure you only do this to one or two pimples, that are far apart. you can't pop your whole cheeks.
9. Avoid makeup on the pimple for atleast 3-5 hours.
10. you might have to redo the steps, just wait 6-7 hours before "repopping"
11. This works just as well on In grown hair as well

What if you don't want to pop it, and you're looking for a much more gentler approach?

Rub a regular bar of anti-bacterial soap on your pimple..make sure the area is dry. Keep rubbing the soap without washing away as much as you can. The soap is extremely drying, which in turn will dry out your pimple!

Adriana Lima Plastic Surgery

Adriana Lima is my favorite model and woman in the world, she is beautiful, with a great body and down to earth personality. So it came as a shock to me when I noticed her looking rather..plastic on the runway in the 2010.

Here's a look!!!

2012

2010

Notice how stretched out her face looks, its so weird i thought it was her makeup, but it can't be.

 

Usually Adriana looks softer.

Make of it what you will, but I don't think Adriana needs anything done..shes a beautiful woman without all the makeup and plastic surgery.


These are just my views, this contains no factual information, only observations.
