It's what's in your bag that counts!! Part 1- What I can't leave home without
Posted 08 August, 2008, at 12:49PM by Shana King
Okay ladies, it’s time to purge all that unnecessary makeup that we never really use. Remember, when you’re packing your makeup bag, do it with touch ups in mind. Once you’ve applied your makeup in the morning, you shouldn’t need to reapply your whole look, especially your eye makeup. When it comes to your makeup bag, less is more.
For me, these are my essentials: – Concealer – A girl’s best friend: Spot touch concealer by MakeUp Forever “All in One” – The eye’s have it: Dior’s Eye Brightener/Booster Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen – Batting Average: Maybelline’s Great Lash Mascara – Something to smile about: 3 Custom Color High Shine Gloss in Pink Fizz – About Face: Burt’s Bee’s Vanishing Face Powder – Wonders Never Crease: Aveda Uruku Eye Accents in Acacia
Now you have heard from me, I want to hear from you. What products can’t you live without??

Summer Make Up for All Ages: Part 3 - Make Up In Your 40's
Posted 01 August, 2008, at 10:22AM by Shana King
40 may be the new 20 but your makeup shouldn’t be. Taking care of your skin is so important during these years. It’s all about being preventative and protecting your skin. Use high definition foundation and color correctors to help with age and sun spots. Choose makeup colors carefully because shades that are too bright can make you look out-of-date and older than you are. Use eye shadows sparingly and only use shadows that have a matte finish. Shadows with shimmer attract the light and will make wrinkles more apparent. Finally, use makeup to accentuate your positive qualities and make yourself feel great!
Brush Highlight of the Week: Pointed Concealer – for corrective color products, tap onto skin to mask discolorations.
Tip of the Week – foundation primers are fantastic and helps stop makeup from accentuating fine lines.

Summer Make Up for All Ages: Part 2 - Make Up In Your 30's
Posted 25 July, 2008, at 10:05AM by Shana King
First, remember, beauty is ageless. In your 30s, you really need to re-think your whole beauty regime. 30-something women have very busy lives – from their careers to families, so this is the time to create an all-occasion make-up collection.
As your skin is less even in tone and texture than in your 20’s, splurge on quality foundation that enhances what you’ve got, minimizes flaws and offers anti-aging benefits. Go for tinted moisturizers and mineral powders. Find a concealer you love and use it especially to brighten under your eyes or add radiance to your face. For eye shadows, you can still have fun with different colors and shades – just don’t over do it.
At any age, eyebrows are one of the most important features of our face and yet they are often the most neglected. In your 30s, groomed eyebrows instantly frame the face and provide lift to the eye area.
You use tinted moisturizers, mineral powders
Eye shadows—you can still have fun, smudging the eyes
Eye brows are very important
Brush Highlight of the Week: Use a foundation brush—to apply tinted moisturizers and spf’s
Tip of the Week—all day protection and hydration, use Evian spritz to keep your face glowing

Summer Make Up For All Ages: Part 1 - Make Up In Your 20's
Posted 17 July, 2008, at 02:45PM by Shana King
When you’re in your 20s, your skin is in its best shape, so less is definitely more. Skip foundation and powder. Instead, go for bronzers and body shimmers allowing your natural and youthful radiance to show. Go for bright eye shadows and choose a lip gloss in a shade that is a few shades darker than the natural color of your lips. One of the most important makeup rules to follow in your 20s? Never go to bed with your make-up on, as it can block pores and traps oil, leading to bacteria build-up and blemishes.
Brush Highlight of the Week: Lip Brush—great for applying lip primers.
Tip of the Week—Apply lip primer to the base of the lips before lip gloss, it will help your gloss stay on longer.
