Pretty as a Peacock Makeup Look

3 Comments

I have become totally obsessed with purple eyeshadow, and I love makeup looks inspired by peacock feathers.  The combination of colors that this exotic bird displays are some of the most rare and beautiful in the world.  I have recently been on the hunt for the perfect combinations of purples, greens, and blues needed to pull this look off and I think I have finally found them.  I hope you enjoy.

That IT Girl’s Top 5 Must Have Beauty Products for Fall 2011

Leave a Comment

In many parts of the country it is still pretty hot and humid but Fall is here! Fall is actually one of my favorite seasons. I love the Fall weather, Fall fashion, and Fall makeup trends. These are a few beauty products that I have fallen in love with and have made my list of must haves for this season.

TANtalizer Baked Bronzer Face/Body Bronzer

1.  LORAC TANtalizer Baked Face/Body Bronzer $35

As summer fades, so does that bronzy glow that I get from spending my days in the sun.  All is not lost though.  A good bronzer gives me that sun kissed look that we all love.  I particularly love this bronzer by LORAC .  It does an amazing job of warming up my skin without being too glittery.

The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash

2.  Philosophy The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash $25

I have found that sometimes as the weather changes, so does the amount of exfoliation needed by my skin.  The Philosophy Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash is safe enough to use daily, delivers the same results of a mini peel over time, and is great for all skin types.  This mild exfoliating cleanser is so good that I regret not trying it earlier in life.

Full Exposure Mascara

3.  Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara $19

I am always on the lookout for the next best mascara and I may have found one to add to my list of favorites.  The Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara promises longer fuller lashes with a more defined curl.  This product lives up to all of its promises and hopefully will soon become a staple.

Daily Protective Moisturizer SPF 15

4.  DDF Daily Protective Moisturizer SPF15 $40

Even though the number of sunny days typically decreases in the Fall, you still need to protect your skin from dangerous UV rays.  I especially love this moisturizer by DDF because it protects, and provides very light-weight moisture that nourishes your skin without making it greasy.

.
Yumberry Crush Lip & Cheek Stain

5.  Stila Yumberry Crush Lip & Cheek Stain $24

This product is multifunctional and easy to travel with.  It will add a natural rosy tint to your lips and/or cheeks and is easy to layer with other makeup products.

Evening Sunset Makeup Look

Leave a Comment

Fall is rapidly approaching.  Soon the leaves on the trees will be changing colors, and many of us will be donning our silliest, most creative Halloween costumes.

Fall is my favorite season.  It commemorates the end of a great year, and the possibilities of new beginnings.  I find fall fashion, and makeup to be very inspirational which is why I created this simple everyday makeup look.  It includes bold oranges, and shiny golds which brings out the subtle beauty of any skin tone.
