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?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.

Bridal Beauty

How many brides out there are up to their necks with wedding stress? The last thing you need is makeup that looks completely different than when you tried it on! We at Haute PR recommend The Guide to Bridal Beauty if you want to look perfect on your wedding day!

Our own Candace is getting married next summer and is loving tips like this one: ‘”If you have a summer wedding, don’t get your makeup trials done in January. Your skin tone will vary depending on the season. If trials are done too far in advance, the makeup may not look the same on your big day. Keep your trials close to 1-2 months prior to the wedding to avoid this.”

The guide is full of makeup suggestions, a bridal beauty calendar, common faux pas, and other tips that you wouldn’t think of with all the wedding stress! If you want the best advice for looking amazing on your big day, definitely check out The Guide to Bridal Beauty!

“No Makeup” Makeup is back! This fall, look for cool bronzes to bring out your natural beauty. Barely there makeup is sweeping designer’s collections for Fall 2011.  Michael Kors is working with soft bronze tones and peachy-beige cheeks. Marc Jacobs is simply using night cream to bring out natural complexions. He recommends, Shiseido Future Solution LX Night Cream (can be purchased at Bergdorf Goodman for $260) to give a natural, gorgeous sheen to your skin. Designers are also stressing that you work on your face’s natural contours. Golds, beiges, and peaches are the hot colors to look for! Keep your shades neutral and simply enhance what you have!

1. Your lips are very sensitive during the winter and a good advice is to use creamy lipstick that contains moisturizing oils.

2. During the winter it is better to use powder rather than a frozen foundation. To make sure the powder don’t flying everywhere sprinkle some onto the puff and go over your face with it.

3. Some people might think that using your fingers and hands while putting on makeup is a no-no but during winter time it is wise to use the body heat to help your concealer and such to melt right into your skin.

Make Up Store

make up atoreIf you are out and about one day and happen to stumble upon a ‘Make Up Store,’ go in and check out some of the amazing cosmetics they have. In Sweden, where I am originally from, Make Up Store is a big deal! It is definitely my favorite make-up brand, and the only one I use when it comes to foundation and eye shadows; I really think it is the best there is. They have so many different fabulous shadow colors, and the best part about them is that the color stays on your lids until you wash it off at the end of the night. They also have amazing lip gloss, powder, nail polish, EVERYTHING! It’s my one stop shop for everything beauty related–I love it!
