Beauty Quickie: Setting Powder -The Key to the Makeup Slay

Arianne Suggs September 26, 2017September 26, 2017Leave a Comment

Beauty Quickie: Do you want your makeup to look like your face was blessed by the cosmetic “gawds?” Are you tired of watching your finished beauty look slide off your face like toppings from a pizza crust throughout the day? If you answered yes to any of those questions then setting powder is about to become your new makeup bag friend!

Beauty Quickie: Setting Powder -The Key to the Makeup Slay

First of all, it is important to acknowledge that there are different face powders all with various purposes. Many at times confuse setting powder with finishing powder. However, the two are not the same and have different functions. Yet, when used together both powders can help you achieve complexion perfection. In our post tomorrow we will will fully explain the distinguishing factors between the two products.

Nevertheless, why use setting powder instead of just regular foundation? Well, setting powder is designed to work in harmony with your foundation. In order to give things extra control if you will. This is because setting powder can provide additional holding power, thus “setting” your look into place and prolonging wear.

Moreover, besides preventing your makeup from rubbing off powders that set can do much more! Setting powders also can help to reduce any shine or illumination as well as sticky feeling that can occur after foundation is applied.

Setting Powder Videos

Sometimes seeing is believing. Also, it’s nice to learn an additional tip or two visually. Here are a few videos that will provide more information to get you up to pro status in no time.

Ask and Tell: Jourdan Dunn Wearing Naeem Khan Fall 2017 RTW

Arianne Suggs September 22, 2017September 22, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Jourdan Dunn Wearing Naeem Khan Fall 2017 RTW (ready to wear). The supermodel was spotted in her delicious gown while attending the 2017 amFAR Milano Gala.

You Asked: Wow what a beautiful dress! Jourdan always looks nice but her dress is really pretty. I would wear it in a heartbeat. Can you please tell me the fashion designer behind her dress? Would love to see more from whoever it is. Thank you.

Ask and Tell: Jourdan Dunn Wearing Naeem Khan Fall 2017 RTW

The Verdict: We have to concur with you, Jourdan Dunn’s dress is very lovely! For the 2017 amFAR Milano Gala Miss Dunn wore a floor length, graphic print dress by Naeem Khan. The look is from the Naeem Khan Fall 2017 RTW (ready to wear) collection.

Furthermore, we also love the way Jourdan styled her gorgeous gown. For instance, the model who originally wore the ensemble down the runway incorporated a stacked pearl necklace as well as long, chandelier earrings. The result is in fact beautiful, but as they always say less can so much more. The minimal use of accessories as seen on Dunn allows all focus to remain the gown which was exquisitely designed.
