Being on trend when it comes to choosing the right nail lacquers has never been easier! What should you go for in terms of tint and style? Number one, shimmering details. Number two, go nude. Moreover, luxury brand Christian Louboutin is taking out all of the guesswork by combining the two into one amazing product. All hail the Christian Louboutin Beaute Louboutin Metalinudes Shades!

These glam nail polishes have been selling out everywhere! For awhile it seemed as though the Metalinudes merchandise was not keeping up with demand. For every place we looked online seemed to have the two words no girl wants to see… SOLD OUT.

Nevertheless, it looks like the tide is finally turning. We spotted Metalinudes online on the Nordstrom site among many others. If you want to score some we recommend you scoop them up fast. They retail for $50. Furthermore, Christian Louboutin recently touted Metalinudes as being the go-to nail colors for summer 2017 and shared additional product details. The brand says,

“Summer manicure? New Metalinudes shimmer under the sun in three iridescent shades of nude. From high-gloss patent to mirrored specchio and lustrous lame’ Christian Louboutin’s latest Beaute Louboutin shades embrace the reflective finishes often seen in his footwear collection.

Infused with warmth and light, Christian Louboutin offers a brighter take on metallics with Metalinudes.

Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line

Arianne Suggs July 18, 2017July 18, 2017Leave a Comment

Are your eyeliner skills “shaky” at best? Is a stick figure your idea of an artwork masterpiece? It’s okay, most of us do not emerge from the womb knowing how to wield beauty tools like nobody’s business. The good thing is that even if you are not “born with it;” you can enhance your makeup application skills with the right tips. Case in point, today’s Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line!

Beauty Insider: Blinc Cosmetics Reveals How to Get Perfect Eyeliner Line

We always love receiving tips and tricks straight from the pros themselves. Blinc Cosmetics kindly spilled the deets on how a gal can get that bomb eyeliner line. They state,

“To get the perfect eyeliner line, look down and pull your lid to the side. It doesn’t matter if you start from the outside in or the other way around. The key is drawing your line a little at a time.

If you try to line your eye in one fell swoop, it will likely be uneven. To avoid that, drag your liner across your lid slowly and in short spurts.

For an everyday look that is effortless but elegant; we suggest only lining your eyelids with a dark color, and using a lighter nude or white on the inner corners. This will make your eyes appear brighter and more awake. 8 colors are available on blincinc.com!”

Thank you Blinc Cosmetics! We look forward to more awesome makeup tips. Be sure to check out Blinc online for awesome products.
