Mascara, iHeart YOU...

So lovies, this is a totally random post, BUT just the other day I was perusing Cosmo magazine and I saw a little blurb about mascara. Did you know mascara has multiple uses? If not, you will know after reading this FABULOUS post!

Did you know your mascara can be used as an eyeliner? I've had a ton of mascara flubs myself, so I just blend it in some kinda way to make it look presentable, but I NEVER knew the REAL pros suggest using it as eyeliner. To use your mascara as an eyeliner, simply take an angled brush and dip it into the tube of mascara, and sweep it across your lashline for perfect definition!

Who woulda thunk intentionally using mascara as an eyeliner would REALLY work?!

Quick Summer Make-Up...

I think I may have shared this with you lovies in a previous post, but I thought it'd be worth my while to share it again. I mean, you can NEVER have too many fashion and beauty reminders, right? So yeah, here's a make-up quickie you'll definitely want to try.

It's pretty warm out, or at least it is where I live and if there's one thing I don't really care to do is where make-up in the heat of the day. Unfortunately, as a freelance make-up artist I can't run around town looking like who did what and why so I have to come up with some quick fixes. My latest quick fix has been wearing minimal foundation and doing one sweep of color on my eyes, checks and lips. The easiest and lightest way to get this done is to use colored eyeliner on your eyes. One sweep of color will work wonders! Take a look at the trend TONS of celebrities are rocking this summer. It's not hard, it's easy to do...so don't be scurrrrreeeeddd...give it a whirl. I promise you'll be glad you did.

If you're a little unsure of how to achieve the look, don't fret! I'll post a photo tutorial.

Nia Long with a sweep of purple on the lower lashline...the purple really brings out her brown eyes and I LOVE the nude lips. Leona Lewis is rocking a green liner on her lower lashline with a fierce pink lip...LOVES IT!

My girl Solange...Solo-Star...Fashionista...This H-Town beauty is rocking a green liner on the lower lashline and a golden yellow color on the inner corners of her eye...LOVE this look and it's soooo EASY!

Garcelle has opted to use black liner on the tops and bottom of eyes and to give a more dramatic effect it appears as though she's smudged it for a Imperfect Perfect look. LOVES IT!



My Girl Jill, Love the blue/green liner on the lower lashline with a light smoky touch in the corner. As far as I'm concerned Ms. Scott can do no wrong. PS: Check out that flawless skin...Can we say, JELLY?! BTW, Jelly is short for JEALOUS...for those of you that might not have known. :)
