Sexy Bun

Sexy Bun


How-to: Can a bun be sexy? When it's left a little undone, the answer is yes. Start by applying a mousse through damp hair and blowdry with a round brush for soft volume. Pile your hair up into a high ponytail, then wrap the tail around the base loosely. Finish by pulling out a few pieces to frame your face, or letting this happen naturally as you move through the night. 

Summer Long Lasting Blush

Long Lasting Blush



How-to: Cream blushes have a lovely way of just lightly kissing the skin with color. But most lack staying power, especially in the summer heat. A few things can be done to prolong their bloom: first, apply a primer. This will form a very thin layer between your skin and the blush so it doesn't absorb away into nothing. Second, dust a powder blush over your cream blush to seal it—one with a peachy or gold undertone will cast a summery bronze over your base blush while also helping to wick away sweat on the steamiest of days. 

Summer Topknot

Summer Topknot


How-to: A topknot is a chic beat-the-heat idea. It works well on wet or dry hair, as long as you control the flyaways. Pull up your hair into a tight, high bun at the crown, brushing hair with a boar-bristle brush that won't cause breakage. Mist a frizz-taming spray around the front section, and for extra protection, spritz a little on your comb and just pat down those tiny strays at the hairline.

WINE RED LIPS: Red lips go dark and romantic this season with black cherry, mulberry, plum and wine shades. Try M.A.C. Prince Noir Lipstick, Stila Long Wear Lip Color in Daring or Maybelline Color Sensational Lipcolor in Deepest Cherry. If you have thin lips, dark shades and matte textures can make them appear smaller, so if you want to rock the deep red lips this season, go for a softer look by using a dark-coloured stain, gloss or tinted lip balm like Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey, Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Adore or Stila Lip Glaze in Black Cherry. Whichever style you choose, just make sure to add some warming blush or bronzer to avoid looking like a creepy vampire or goth chick!

BRIGHT, MATTE LIPS: Brightly-colored lipstick often looks juvenile, cheesy or tart-ish, but pops of matte color with minimal eye make-up looks very chic and very grown-up!  To get this look go for a matte shade like M.A.C. Lipstick in Vegas Volt layered up over a base of clear balm and blotted to achieve maximum coverage and staying power. Keep your skin looking fresh and dewy so you don’t look dry or dull.

Oh, The Glow!

Glow on the Go

How To Steps:

1. Apply your Foundation. The trick to achieving even, natural coverage is to apply the formula with a brush and then go over it with a damp makeup sponge to take off any excess makeup so it looks a lot softer and smooth.
2. Apply three small dots of Illuminating Bronzer Cream right on the top of the cheekbone. Tap the liquid gently into the skin to fully blend.
3. Apply a bronzing powder with a large, fluffy brush making sure to tap off any excess product. Starting with the cheekbones, apply the bronzer using a large circular motion. Follow to the hairline and finally, the jawbone.
4. Using a smaller brush, apply a lighter-colored blush to the apples of the cheeks in a circular motion. As a guide, light peach looks good on all skin tones.
5. Make your eye brows look fuller and thick, for catchy eyes.
6. To finish the look line your eyes with a brown  eye pencil. *Hint: smudge the eyeliner for a natural look.
7. Apply mascara. *Hint: do not make thick lashes, it won't look natural but dramatic.
8. Lastly apply your favorite tinted lip balm, or nude lip gloss/lipstick for a natural look and glow.

2. Primer is a  must for photos, it's the base coat, oil free primers are the best.
3. Avoid shimmery powder, and blush for your cheeks, keep the shimmer on the lids only.
4. Try to not use SPF, everything you are using should be SPF free (it cast a ghost-like glow with the camera flash).
5. Balance out the look, keep everything dark or light.
6. Line your eyes from the middle of the eye lid and keep the inner corner line thin, use a slanted brush to line the lower lid with a dark shadow try to not use black.
7. Always apply makeup in natural light, this will help how it will look when photographed.
8. Practice with your products before the photo shoot or the day of the occasion it will help you create your final look.
9. Blend everything properly concealer, blush, contouring and eye shadow. Flash light will high light any areas that are not blended.  
10. Set your makeup with a yellow powder rather than translucent, it's much like the SPF it creates ghost-like glow.
11. Have fun while taking pictures, because photos are life's pause button.
