Hi Girls!
Today I went to Make Up For Ever (MUFE) professional beauty shop decided to check out their goodies and to buy a new foundation. Almost 2 months ago I’ve bought All Mat Face Matifying Primer (I will review it shortly) from Make Up For Ever and since I was so pleased with it I’ve decided to buy the foundation from the same brand.
The shop was not very big (almost the size of my living room) but full with all the products of the new collection and makeup accessories. When I entered the shop the 2 makeup artists present there were very polite and they offered to help me right away. It was a pleasant surprise to see that they have makeup artists in the shop instead of beauty sellers like in other beauty shops and let me tell you that the difference was huge. They were really aware of all the products in the shop (at least of all that I’ve asked for) and they could also help you with makeup tips and advices . After checking out some of the new products I’ve stopped to look at the HD foundation and one of the makeup artist was glad to help me out.
I told her that I’m looking for a new foundation (for oily skin) and she invited me to take a seat at the makeup table, where she will test some of the foundation on my skin. Here was the first difference (in the positive way of course), because working with clients all the time she really knew what I needed and showed me the only 2 foundation fit for my skin type.
Since I knew that I was going to look for a foundation I didn’t put any makeup on my face (only mascara and lipgloss) so she started by testing the Mat Velvet Matifying Foundation (for oily skin type) after she used a makeup cream removal. Maybe in other countries is normal that when you are shopping for a foundation a makeup artist should assist you and test the foundation on your skin, but believe me that here this is not happening (most of the times sellers try the products on their own skin) and this was the first time when I’ve experienced this in my country and I felt great. I definitely told to myself that I will comeback since they were so professional in choosing the right shade especially since I’ve never tried their foundations before.

Only one in four women consider the expiration date of her cosmetic products, according to dailymail.co.uk. Other women put their health at risk by using cosmetics for several years, even if they start to smell funny or discolor.
Old cosmetics are a real danger to our health. Like the food, cosmetics expire and are dangerous if we are still using them. Over time, following contact with skin, lashes, lips, etc.., cosmetics accumulate bacteria, which multiply and come again on the lips or your skin.
Most women completely forget when they purchased a particular product and use it well beyond the period of validity, which results in the appearance of infections. Most sensitive are the eyes, followed by the lips, whose crazing or cracking of the skin surface contributes to “install” bacteria and occurrence of infections.

Hello Ladies! We already know that purple is the “new black” this Fall. Being part of the actual trends, this shadow is included in most of the 2009 Fall Makeup Collections. It’s also one of my favorites eyeshadows colors and it adapts to all complexions and all hair colors. The trick consist in finding the right dose and depending on its intensity, purple can cover a range of very strong colors from taupe-like purple to pink and periwinkle. It’s also a very nice shade that goes well with bronze or turquoise. You can play with these combination and create a look that will give the eyes a greater depth and mystery.
Today I’m going to show you step by step how you can achieve the Make Up Forever Fall 2009 Look.
The “must haves” for this look are the violet and steel gray eyeshadows and the Aqua line waterproof pencils.
COMPLEXION
Apply HD Primer Pink # 7 ( $32 ) to freshen up the complexion. This primer will nourish and moisturize your skin making it soft and glowing and in the same time creates a barrier effect so that the foundation will not be absorbed by the skin. The HD Primer has an non-oily finish so this mean that you don’t have to wait a few minutes before applying your makeup.
Then use the HD sponge ( $12 ) to apply HD Foundation Ivory #115 ( $40 ) which is oil – free product. Because it has a medium-to-full-coverage this liquid foundation will cover skin imperfections flawlessly. Even if your are in bright or harsh lighting your complexion will look flawless, because the HD Foundation creates a soft-focus effect which was designed to meet the coverage concerns of a complexion in the spotlight.

Eyes:
Prep the lid with Ombre Perfecteur in Clair ( 23$ ) to help your eyeshadow last longer. It’s also a friend when it comes to eliminating darkness and redness on the lids. Twist the back of the brush to release one click of products for each eye, and blend all over with the built-in sponge applicator.
The luxuriously smooth shadows of the Ombre Absolue Duo Golden Grandeur ( 35$ ) will open up your eyes brilliantly. To obtain a brightest effect, press the pale gold shade onto the lid, inner corners, and under the brow with the Large Shadow Brush no.11 ( 28$ ). To blend the color use the Blending Shadow Brush no.17 ( 27$ ) and do small circular motions. Continue reading ‘How to get Lancome L’Absolu Rouge Look’
This look is inspired by the fall 2009 collection Declaring Indigo by Lancome. Now that the entire collection is available in the shops we can try to get the Indigo Crush look. Here are all the steps that you need to follow to accomplish this look.
Eyes
Start by applying Jewel shade from the Color Design Liberty Palette Golden Audacity all over the lid. After, concentrate Charming on your lower lid and inner corner of your eye. Contour the eye with Audacity, and apply Ink Artliner Noir Magnificence ( 23.50$ ) along the inner tear line. Then apply Irreverence and wrap it around the lash line to create a modern and chic, smoky eye.
Use the Virtuose Black Carat ( 24.50$ ) to curve your lashes, opening up the eyes while the Virtuose Royal Gold ( 24.50$ ) applied to the tips of the lashes creates a light reflective brightening effect.
I have recently discover the new way to glow. I went shopping the other day and after buying something totally funny (I hope to make a post about it soon) I took a peak into the Sensuous Gold Fall Color 2009 collection from Estee Lauder . I’ve discover the Gilded Rose Marbleized Shimmer Powder which is kind of in the expensive side for me ( 36$ ) but I still decided to buy it.
I simply could not resist not buying it, since I first saw it’s chic colored case. It’s a light peachy-pink case, and you know how I love pink, and with the Estee Lauder symbol on it becomes very chic and feminine. When you open the case you’ll find the applicator along with the powder which is a rainbow of light peachy, pink, bronze and gold shimmery colors. All these colors combined together create luminous bronze- golddess glow but in the same time will give you a natural look.
