Bright Eyes

Don't let the holiday partying take its tole. Keep your eyes bright and looking wide awake, even after a long night. Use these tips and tricks to get your bright eyes bouncing back in no time. In order to wake up your eyes and avoid dark circles and puffiness from lack of sleep, try putting your eye cream in the refrigerator the night before. Let it chill over night and apply a thick layer in the morning. Remember to only apply to the orbital bone and up to the outer corner of the brow. Allow the cool cream to sit for at least twenty minutes. Try Mario Badescue Ceramide Eye Gel. Rub in your eye cream and get ready for makeup. But before you jump to concealer use Too Faced Mineral Water Pencil around the edge of the inner eye and on dark circles. The mineral water will help to hydrate your eyes, revitalizing them to their natural beauty.

Quick Trick:
Use a navy blue pencil on the inner rim to counter act reddness in the eyes.

Now you're ready to hit those Holiday Parties!!

Radiantly Ruby


Ruby Red is not just for slippers anymore. This beautiful rich red seems to be popping up everywhere. It was all over the runways of the 2010 spring fashion week in Paris. Although we may be far away from Paris, we are not far behind this trend. Don't be afraid of reds anymore! Just make sure you choose the right color for your skintone.
Quick Trick:
To keep your lipstick from bleeding and lasting all day follow these simple tricks: Apply primer first, try Borderline by Too Faced. Then apply liner and lipstick. Get a tissure and separate the layers. Hold one layer lightly over your lips and dust a little bit of loose powder over the tissue. The right amount will penetrate the tissue setting your lipstick in place. Now you can apply your gloss and be radiantly ruby all day!

Get the Holiday Blues...


'Tis the Season to be Blue! Matte blue that is. Add some color to your winter wardrobe with this matte royal blue nail polish in Russian Navy by OPI. To keep that matte look don't use a topcoat. Remeber to use a good base coat to help the polish adhere to the nail. This season be sure to be blue.

Sexy Silver


Sparkle this holiday season with this glittery sexy silver eye. First apply a silver shadow all over eyelid from lashline to brow. Then mix a little cake eyeliner with the Loose Dust # 34 Silver by Napoleon. Pat onto the lid up to the crease. For a more intese look add Loose Dust # 33 Silver Glitter by Napoleon and press onto lid. Use a gel liner like Smashbox Jet Set, just over the lashline. Use a purple shadow under the eye for a little punch of color. Then layer Too Faced Starry Eyed Liner in Superfreak. Remeber to keep the cheeks and lips nuetral. Now you will sparkle all season long.

To make your eyes smokey and sexy dust a light silver shadow all over lid. Then smudge a darker metallic silver from lashline to crease. Try Too Faced OOH & AAH dual shadows. Blend well. To really make your eyes pop use a black liner on the inner rim, like Smashbox jet set in black. To complete your smoldering eyes apply a pair of false lashes. Use a soft rasberry shade for a perfect pout and dress with a matching lip gloss. Try Smashbox lipgloss in tease. To give your cheeks a slight rosey glow sweep a light pink blush from across your cheekbone. Use a highlighter on top of your cheek bone to give a radiant glow.
