Yellow Fever!

Would you wear this eyeshadow color?

Yes
No

Display Poll Results

If you answered yes, good for you! Most people shy away from such a bright color like yellow. However, it can be worn beautifully with other eyeshadows. Try wearing a burgundy plum shade, or rich sable brown with it.

For those of you who answered no, I understand. It’s not a basic everyday color. However, consider it if you ever decide to try something more bold and out of the box.

Remember, not all yellow eyeshadows are created alike, some are sheer, some are more matte, others have a hint of glitter or frost. The frosty ones, tend to look more gold than yellow.



Where to purchase:

Mac Cosmetics – Chrome Yellow (Matte)
NYX Cosmetics – CES28 Yellow (Matte/Satin)
Makeup Forever - # 10 (Yellow Gold Satin/Frost)

Thanks for voting everyone!

The Secret to SEED

Rebecca and Benjamin Gournay, who were interested in detoxifying their lives, started SEED. In their effort to rid their household of harsh, chemical products and replace them with environmentally friendly ones, they found very few, all natural, personal care products. The couple embarked on a search to find the most natural, potent ingredient for total skin and body care.

They found the answer inside grape seeds. Each seed is packed with vitamin E, essential fatty oils and antioxidants, all of which are key ingredients to healthy skin.

Not only does the company enhance daily body care rituals, they also strive to make a positive environmental impact. They want reduce their carbon footprint that means all of their packaging is recyclable and biodegradable.

Affordable products that are all natural and effective:

Moisturizing Body Soap in Invigorating Citrus Thyme and Simply Unscented ($20 each) – A gentle cleanse and exfoliate that won’t leave your skin looking dry. Made with refined pomegranate, strawberries and apricot seeds too.

Customized Personal Palette

In researching a couple of products to be able to customize your eye shadows, blushes and foundations you can easily use one of the UNII Palettes or Z palette. I really didn't know which one to blog therefore I decided to combine both of them together. These are amazing ideas. They make you very organized and your makeup kit very small preventing you having to carry different containers. As a makeup artist myself, I feel that I want to carry less. I can see these palettes are going to be very useful, not only in the makeup industry but even for everyday use. These palettes are very reasonable in price. Another great thing is that you can customize your palette to your clients needs.

Really the only differences I found personally between Z palettes and UNII Palettes:

Z palettes are come from Large to Small size. Choose from Black, Pink or Zebra, comes with a Clear Top Cover. http://www.zpalette.com/





You can find this palette online at http://www.zpalette.com/ or your local beauty stores: Friends, Cinema Secrets, Nigel Beauty Emporium, CRC, Primping Parleur.

UNII Palettes come in one size; 6 Multi Colors, comes with a Mirror Top Cover.

You can find this palette online http://uniicosmetics.com;


Note: Purchasing in a pan versus pot can saves you lots of MONEY!!! Saving is always a great thing.

You can find the following products in pan to refill your palette: Stila, MAC, Shu Uemura, La Femme, Chantecaille, Bobby Brown…So many other products come in pans. Remember you can always depot your own product out of your pots.

Jeune d'age Organics

This product just amazes me on how much it makes your skin feel so good. I tried this product myself and it's not only moisturizing, but it's a great serum can be used as a primer. I used was the Anti Age Serum for a couple of days I felt like a new woman. It not only moisturized my skin but made me look awake. I got so many compliments on my skin using this product that I actually gave samples to my friends. I can't wait to use it on my clients; I think they are going to be amazed. I feel this product is a good way to start your mornings and evenings. This skin care products comes in formulations for dry, oily, sensitive, combination and normal skin.

When you are purchasing products you want them to work well but you also want the packaging to look nice. These products are packaged in a very nice box made with flower seeds. Great as a gift, or for buying refills, storage or growing in the garden. Normally, when you are purchasing a product that works well and looks great-you think it's very expensive. Actually, these products are very reasonable in price.

These products contains High grade antioxidants with certified organic extracts. It's Packed with Vitamins! Individual application packets for freshness, natural forms of DMAE, Hyaluronan, CoQ10, Natural AHAs and ALAs

No Synthetic Fragrances, NO Parabens and Vegan friendly

Get This Look: Evelyn Salt -Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie is a strong and beautiful woman, so who wouldn’t want to emulate her? She is starring in an upcoming movie called “Salt”, where she portrays Evelyn Salt, a CIA Operative accused of espionage. She takes on a few identity changes to elude capture and becomes a federal fugitive on the run.

Her makeup in the film is very clean and understated. She has long, straight hair with blunt bangs. A major emphasis is around her eyes created by black eye liner. Her lip color is consistently natural with a sheer, rosy/berry gloss.
