So you want to wear makeup: Cheeks

Hey guys!!!!

Another installment of my series. Today’s focus is on the cheeks.

I must admit that this is an area that I have only recently gotten into. I’m all about the eyes but I have come to realize that the right cheek colour and application could take a look to another level!!!

Again, there are many different formulations for cheek colours and these include:

Powder (the most popular)
Gel
Creams (my new favourite!)
Liquids
Mousses

So there is something there for everyone, you just need to find something that suits you.

There are a few things to take into consideration when selecting your cheek colour and formula:

So you want to wear makeup!……Eyes

So yeah…..I’ve been slackin’ off on my basics beauty series, ‘So you want to wear makeup….’. But I’m back!!!!

This is help you with the basics of makeup application, a 5-minute-out-the-door face, a simple work look. Find my other articles on the basics here:

Skin II

So eyes are my favourite part of my face to make up. There are so many possibilities, colour combinations, textures etc. But for those that are beginners, or those who don’t have a lot of time, just a few simple steps could give you a polished look.

The Brows

Before I get into eyes, I have to speak of the eyebrows. Your eyebrows are absolutely important as they frame the eyes and the face. It’s one of the first places that people see. Many people have their brows shaped via threading, waxing or tweezing but really and truly, combing your eyebrows will make them look groomed. This is where a spoolie or eyebrow comb comes in handy. I think the metal brow combs are the way to go! The plastic ones break every 5 mins! Also get a shape that suits the way the hair grows, eye shape etc. Overly plucked brows are a no-no!

Mission for 2010….

So I’m all about eye makeup…. like, ALL ABOUT eye makeup!!!! I decided that one of the things that I would like to do is to expand my lipstick range for 2010. Therefore, I’m on the lookout for the perfect red lip. Or at least something that is close to perfect! 🙂 I currently have only a few true reds and that’s M.A.C.’s Venetian Lipglass, Cult of Cherry Lipglass and 3D Lipglass in Algorithm which are all great but they are all lipglasses. So I’ll be checking out M.A.C., MUFE, NARS and any other brand that catches my eye. I’m NW 45 in M.A.C. so this should be interesting……So I’m off to my adventure!!

Look of the Day: Easy, Soft Pink Look! & Red Cherry lash review

Hey folks!

This is a look that I did earlier this week. I also used Red Cherry Lashes for the first time. And they are pretty good and inexpensive!

I heard A LOT about Red Cherry but did not want to order online, and silly me only just discovered Beauty 35 in NYC! Really it’s a mecca for inexpensive beauty products, hair and makeup supplies. Anyway, I bought one pair of Red Cherry lashes in #DEL just to test them out. They cost about $2.99 and they were very thin, wispy and long! They were easy to put in and felt really comfy. They get a thumbs up from me!

Back to the look!
