revlon look

Make Up by Revlon Global Artistic Director,
Gucci Westman
“This look was all about a cool modern take on old Hollywood glam. Taking inspiration from the New York Great Gatsby era, I wanted to create a more youthful interpretation appearing as though she had been dancing all night. Using Revlon Illuminance Cream Shadow in Not Just Nudes and Revlon ColorStay ShadowLinks, I created a copper eye that was subtle yet elegant. As the focus of the look I created a bold dark lip using Revlon Lip Liner in Raisin with Revlon Super Lustrous in Black Cherry. For the final touch I used Revlon PhotoReady SkinLights to create a flawless luminous finish on the face and body.”

Nails by Celebrity Manicurist, Jin Soon

“Echoing a modern glam vibe, and to compliment the dark cherry lip, nails were filed in a natural oval shape and painted a deep blood red with Revlon Nail Enamel in Vixen. I wanted to highlight the focus of the face with a bold yet elegant nail.”

Gift idea for the beauty in YOUR life- essence twilight breaking dawn collection

Written by meredith / News / December 01, 2012

Okay let me start by saying I am not a fan of the twilight series.  But honestly, these products were just too good to pass up.  Here’s what I was able to pick up the day after I first saw the collection at the drugstore.  The collection was SO picked over this was all I was able to get:

from Left: 01 Renesmee red blush, 02 Renesmee red lipgloss, 01 alice had a vision again lipgloss, 01 a piece of forever lipstick, 02 Jacob’s protection glitter eyeliner, 01 alice had a vision again glitter eyeliner

Like I said, while I am NOT a fan of the movies/books, this collection screams “Wear me for the holidays!”  And since the prices range from $1.99-$3.99 CAD for each piece, I couldn’t resist.  I am using these for my holiday looks!

If you have a twilight fan in your world and you’re at a loss for a Christmas gift, I HIGHLY suggest these….that is, if you can still find them.

I have long admired hair stylists-it’s a combination of function and creativity.  I don’t know how they do it-such vision they must have!

2011 Beauty Favorites!

Written by meredith / News / January 01, 2012

I have been seeing a lot of  bloggers posting about their 2011 favorites!  There are so many great posts I’ve had to start a list of products that I want to check out.  I want to express my appreciation for the time it takes beauty bloggers to write posts-especially reviews and tutorials.  I know that an incredible amount of work goes into making videos and posting reviews.  I am so glad to know you and truly value your opinions/advice.  I don’t buy ANY beauty products without checking out what bloggers have to say about them!  It’s the only way!
