Hi Ilk

I wanted to thank you for the tip - Laura Mercier rocks! I was upset at first because I let the girl coerce me into buying what I thought was colour too dark for my skin (oil free tinted moisturiser in nude, camouflage no 3 and translucent loose powder), I suck at speaking my mind at the time, BUT at home and wearing it now, it truly is FLAWLESS. And not too dark at all, it just soaks into my skin. I'm even using the right brush and sponge.

So once again - THANK YOU!

(I'll have to try Nars blush another time - ran out of cash)

:heart:


good girl!!!!

I used to use nude... Should be fine merm.... Just a little and blend in with fingers... Sponge's are ok... But you still need to blend it into the skin properly... Sometimes it can become streaky...

Remember to look at it in daylight....

I'm so happy you brought it!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!

Those products will last you ages!!!!!!!!!! :heart:

Thanks!!!
I got Dr.'s whatever his name is serum yesterday...The one you suggested for blackheads!!!

TIP ladies.....

Dry chapped lips????

Brush lips with a toothbrush.... Use a balm on the lips first... (I'm sure alot of people know this)


Take a cotton bud, Dip it into oily eye makeup remover and gently rub into lips... Leave overnight...

Vaseline on lashes... great to moisturize during the night... I curl mine before bed and rub vaseline on them.... Wake up, With soft curled lashes...



THIS IS A MUST-HAVE LADIES!!!!

MAX FACTOR VOLUMIZING MASCARA! Pat McGrath is my fav makeup artist... She created a collection for Max Factor... I was sent this mascara this morning and tested the effect...

Hey Ilk - thoughts for this photo shoot thingy in Vegas -- scenario - black strapless ho dress, longer, slit up the sides, laces up the sides (actually its a nice dress but def not something to wear to church) - go glam. Suggestions for makeup? I need to hit the MAC counter I guess. But for what I'm going to guess is an outdoor photo shoot in the Vegas heat in July.

When I did my last show the makeup chick did sort of a green / blue eyeshadow, fake lashes , drew in more eyebrows + protan on me. For something dramatic, intense, but more glamorous than trashy -- suggestions? And is the MAC counter the place to go to get this stuff?

I"m kinda thinking of playing w/ this fake hair I have too - its one of those clip-on pony tail things that sort of looks like a 60s gogo girl ponytail -- so would either have long hair down or hair up. (And yes I'll get my highlights redone before ...)

Or do you have any suggestions for better fall pieces or maybe "how" to do any of that or a place I can go ask abotu it? I bought the fake hair at one of those booths they have in the mall where the Asian girls are selling the hair w/ the fancy crystal clips - it was like $200 worth of hair and anothe $100 worth of clips so its not a cheap fright wig.

LOL at ho dress!!

I see sexy, Smoky, Seductive eyes.... individual false lashes...

So, MAC... These are the colours you should look at for... Remember the MAC girls/guys are usually really nice, I'm sure they can show you how to do it too... Remember to ask them

Always even out the eye lids with oil-free foundation...

Then add a simple biscuit like shadow...

Then its the dramatic colours...

http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/products/sp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY15103&PRODUCT_ID=PROD1503

Shadowy lady -
Nocturnelle and
Folie..

Nocturnelle applied first... Softly, Don't over do it... Blend and use shadowy lady... on the outer corners... Quite intense and dramatic...

2 colours are enough on the lid... Folie would be great as an eyeliner... Wet the liner brush and place in Folie, Apply inside the bottom rim..

Like this - http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4vs6us4

The look we want is similar to this
http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4lyqogx

Keep the face simple, Contoured and fresh, Use a yellow based foundation so it evens out the skin and hides any redness... Lips... Use a soft raseberry/pinkish colour...

The Max Factor one I suggested for you would look fab! It isn't sticky either...



Hair... Does it have to be one look??

Can we have a look with your hair down and up?

I'd like one look for you to have it down, Straightened and then tonged... to add that soft curl...

Then you can have it up, pulled back, a few strands in front need to come down... The you can pin the hair extension in...

BUT, I'd suggest you go to a hairdresses... Ask them to style your hair if your not sure..... At least you'll have a better understanding...

I would like you to have it up.... With the extension in... Your face will be more out there and and it would be a different look for you too.. Very Glam...

I'll research the hair abit more... And post it later today....

The makeup will be easy.... Is this before Sally's show? If its after, I can show you how to do it....
 
Something like this Sassy, When having it up

extension clipped in the back... That would look great... :)
 
I'm thinking up also - Just seems to look better w /my face. I'll get some recommendations for some one here locally.

And yes this is all for TSO's shoot in LV July 27ish.
