Feelin’ hot hot HOT

The weather is cold, but are you in the mood for something HOT?

How about spicing up your makeup with hot shades of red, orange, and pink?

We are totally loving that look! These super bright shades make you stand out and look good. People won’t be able to help but notice your glam when you wear these colors in lipstick and eyeshadow, so show them off with pride!

Luscious Lashes

False eyelashes are worn by a countless number of stars on the red carpet, at A-list events, or just in day-to-day life. But now, we are seeing more and more people wearing them just for fun or just as a part of their makeup routine.

These lashes are totally luscious and add drama and beauty to your look. These lashes should be worn for no more than 48 hours and are a great way to hide dark eye circles or just look extra glam! Always remember to do the rest of your makeup first and apply the fake lashes last for the most seamless look.

Where’s your favorite place to rock fake lashes?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After making waves this past summer with her sudden (and very quick) divorce from superstar Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes is looking fabulous and turning heads in the new Bobbi Brown advertisement.

The long-time star is the first-ever celebrity to be in a Bobbi Brown advertisement, and boy does she look stunning. Holmes was apparently hand-picked for the ad!

Bobbi Brown is a top makeup designer who makes fabulous products that we absolutely can’t resist.

Katie looked amazing with smoky eyes, wavy hair, statement piece jewels, and coral lips.

What an amazing way for Holmes to showcase her natural beauty!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Abbou in Strength Ad

MAC has launched its new STRENGTH collection which features colors that are simultaenously bold, confident, strong, and elegant.  Only MAC could pull this off!  The lines tag line is  “Strike a powerful pose, stand out, redefine the notion of beauty – and do it with strength too irresistible to ignore.”

 

The most intriguing part of this new STRENGTH beauty line is the spokesperson for it.  MAC is known to be a cutting edge brand, always looking to surprise its fans.  Body builder Jelena Abbou is photographed flexing her muscles in a latex dress.  Though an unexpected beauty role model, we think that Abbou perfectly exemplifies a strong, beautiful woman in this bold, unique ad. We love that MAC didn’t go with the same old beauty standard and switched things up! What do you guys think?

Sometimes our makeup bags can turn into a complete disaster area!

Despite our good intentions and efforts to stay organized, makeup bags turn into a lump of mixed up makeup that leaves us digging and searching for that lip gloss or eyeliners we need.

Organizing a cosmetics case, however, can be quick and easy and save you lots of trouble when you’re on the go.

To get everything in order, empty the entire makeup bag to see what you have in there. Many times, it ends up filling up with a bunch of things that you don’t even need. Separate what needs to stay in there from what can come out. Remember to be picky! Only carry around things you think you’ll actually end up using and leave the rest at home to avoid clutter.

Fill your makeup bag with items that you use on an everyday basis and keep them orderly and clean. Through out any old mascaras and try to get makeup that is “two in one” in order to consolidate.

Finally, maintain your case on a regular basis! At least once weekly, clean it out quickly and reorganize to keep everything in it’s place and easy to access.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have you heard about Drew Barrymore’s new makeup line?!

As if the star isn’t famous enough, with a career that spans over three decades as well as directing now under her belt, she has recently launched a makeup line that we’re nuts for!

The name of the line is Flower, and it will launch in Walmart stores in January. This is great news! Not too long of a wait!

Keep a look out for this makeup which is “luxurious” but at realistic price points, as low as under five bucks.

You’ll be sure to love this glam star’s new beauty digs in the new year!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Pantone Color of the Year has been announced and it is…..drumroll please…..emerald!

Emerald is such an elegant color and can be worn in a myriad of ways as far as makeup goes.

One of the cutest ways to rock this glam color is to do up your eyes in emerald shadow. Then, accentuate the color with accent jewelry pieces such as a statement necklace or earrings highlighting the color!

Expect to see emerald all over this upcoming year and be prepared to sport it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How crazy would you get with your eyeliner? Would you go bold or are you more of a classic kinda gal?

There are some crazy eyeliner trends out there! From wings to electric colors in lieu of your standard black or brown, there are many different ways to wear the liner that are on the rise.

Hyper extended eyeliner on the top lids is a new thing, as is truly bold, thick lines. Even drawn on lashes have been seen on some celebs!

What do you think of this bold and sometimes crazy trend? Are you a fan or does it have you saying “No way!”?!
