Perfecting the Plum lip

Winter is here!! My favorite trend this season is the PLUM LIP!

I have been on a two week long mission to find the perfect plum color for my fair skin. Most of the colors I have tried made me look too goth! 

After scouring Sephora, I finally found it! The one!

Makeup Forever makes the most perfect plum lip soul mate

To all with fair skin, you're welcome!

No lip color is perfected without a complimenting liner.

I'm an advocate for nude liner. It can be paired with any lip color, and usually blends better than using the same shade as your lipstick.

Bobbi Brown, light warm beige, is usually my go to!  

You can get this at sephora too!

WOWbrows

Our eyebrows frame our faces, they are one of the most important features people see when they look at us. You can have the most gorgeous facial features, and have over tweezed brows and all people think is how surprised you look...all the time.

^ BAD BROWS!

However, with the correct shape and color, your eyebrows can compliment you most beautiful facial features, and your eyes!

^ GREAT BROWS!

I'll use Kim K, as my example. Her brows start lined up with her nostrils, end at the correct angle with the outer corner of her eye, and are at the highest arch just outside of her iris. They are also an amazing shade, complimenting her dark eyes and hair. If your brows are too light...they might as well be over tweezed.

Another example..

The arch is lined up with the edge of the iris, the brows stop at the correct angle with the outer corner of the eye. They are also dark enough to frame the face correctly.

If you're skeptical of brow tinting you can pencil them in.

When penciling in brows, you want to pick a shade that is one to two shades darker than your brows naturally.

I like MAC's brow pencil in lingering , it's more of a nude than a brown, which allows you to build color gradually. Instead of going with a color that's way too dark and you will end up having to take it off.

Once you pick the correct color, you can begin by brushing your brows, I then prefer to start at the outermost part and work in, using short quick strokes. I'll post a video soon, all the ones I found are WAY too dark and not a great technique.

Feel free to email with any questions about this or anything brow related.

Also, incase you needed a wax and correct shaping of your brows, make an appointment :)

H2..Oh..

The first thing I see in all my clients is dehydration. Not to the point of hospitalization or anything Grey's anatomy would need to worry about. 

Still, dehydrated. From the inside-out, you have to nourish and feed your skin. Right now, you're thinking, yeah my moisturizer does that! WRONG. Moisturizers are designed and formulated, yes, to hydrate our skin, but essentially to hold the moisture we feed it, in.

So, how much water are you supposed to drink? Well...how much do you weigh? In pounds, divide that by two and that's how many ounces.

For those of you who think I'm kidding..ask The Curl Girl what happens in less than a weeks time when you follow this. I'll save you the time..AMAZING RESULTS. An almost instant transformation in your skins tone and texture.
