Spring beauty may make you think pastels, flushed cheeks, roses and bees. However, for the upcoming new year that could not be farther from the truth! Spring beauty 2019 trends, such as the one spotted at Kith x Versace, are edgier and bolder than ever! For fashion week, designers sent countless designs down the catwalk with makeup incorporating vibrant and dauntless lips, eyes and brows.
So then, say goodbye to playing it safe. It is time to get into more venturesome mood. In order to get you up to speed; for the next several weeks, we will be bringing all of the must-have beauty looks for 2019 straight from the runway! First up, the smokiest eye in all of makeup-land.
Spring Beauty 2019: Kith x Versace Runway Show Smoky Eye
Edgy makeup usually goes hand and hand with edgy couture. Therefore, what is the Kith x Versace like? The Versace label describes it as,
“Kith x Versace… A collection that takes Versace street wear to a new level. Sporty looks were revealed, each revisiting iconic house codes. Greek patterns, Baroque prints and gold jewelry.
The Versace logomania is reinterpreted. The blindfolded Medusa upholds the streetwise Kith aesthetic.”
Sounds legit. However, to get the details on how this look came together, we went to one of the major keys… Maybelline. The cosmetics brand spread the beauty wealth on how the smoky eye and overall style was created using their products. Maybelline reveals,
“We’re feeling this look, keyed by Grace Lee [at] Kith. She created a bold, graphic eye using our lasting drama gel eyeliner in ‘sleek onyx.’ [Then] applied our Fit Me Foundation Matte + Poreless for a flawless face; and swiped on our Super Stay Matte Ink in ‘Poet’ and ‘Driver’ to complete the look.”

Yep… you have to be quicker than that. If you were among the thousands of beauty hopefuls wishing upon a makeup star to get the new Tom Ford Cardi Lipstick; most likely, it is still unfortunately just a wish. The Cardi B cosmetics collaboration with iconic fashion designer, Tom Ford, literally sold out in a blink of an eye.
The popularity of Cardi’s release comes as no surprise. The hip hop star and now most streamed female rapper of all time also enjoyed much attention for her couture collab with Steve Madden. A line that consisted of fabulous curated styles straight from the top footwear brand. Since fashion was such a hit, it makes sense that Cardi B would try and extend her hands into beauty.
Tom Ford Cardi Lipstick – Smoking Blue From the Boys and Girls Collection
Nevertheless, the color of Cardi’s lipstick is also well-timed. With blue lipsticks not really being seen since the beginning of the year, Cardi’s blue hue lippy was certainly a fresh breath of air. An electric blue shade with an ultra sultry, smooth finish thanks to a creamy ingredient mix of: Chamomilla Flower Extract and Brazilian Murumuru Butter.
Other than a recent sighting on Janet Jackson in promotion of her Made For Now single, the lip tint was acting more like an unicorn. Rarely seen. Yet, Tom Ford and Cardi B is bringing it back to the fore and are flaunting it proudly. The Cardi lipstick is apart of the Tom Ford Boys and Girls Collection and the luxury brand says the reason Ford created the lip line is because:
“To Tom Ford, there is no more dramatic accessory than a perfect lip. It is the focus of the face and it has the power to define a woman’s whole look. The collection showcases a decadent wardrobe of 50 rich, vivacious, sensuous shades; that influence a mood and transform an entire look for maximum impact.”
Furthermore, each color in the collection represents a woman that Tom Ford admires. For instance, you will also find lipsticks with names such as: Letitia, Cindy, Jessica and Kaia. You may be able to guess who those colors belong too. Nonetheless, each lipstick retails for $36 each. However, so far there is no word on a restock on Cardi. Sorry peeps.

Metallic lips are back and more BOLD and IN YOUR FACE than ever! Forget glitter, forget your regular sparkle palette and look to the runway for all cosmetic inspiration. That is because designer genius, Jeremy Scott, for his Jeremy Scott Spring 2019 show; brought the makeup house down by bringing foiled lips back to the catwalk.
Metallic Lips: Foiled Lips From Jeremy Scott Spring 2019 Fashion Show
Depending on how lipstick fanatic you are… you may recall the foiled lips splash that was created by the iconic Pat McGrath. Her crimson shiny, futuristic lip look was the talk of the beauty town when it appeared for the Maison Margiela Fall 2017 Couture Week show. Or perhaps you may be thinking of those Glitzy Lips foil appliques from like the early 2010’s era.
Regardless, of what foil makeup moment immediately comes to mind; no matter how many times you see foil lips it never gets old. It’s fierce, edgy and totally cosidered statement makeup. For Jeremy Scott’s fashion show for New York Fashion Week MUA (makeup artist), Kabuki, perfected and executed a dazzling metallic pink lip. Want the look? Here’s how:
Purchase foil lips in the tone or color you like. They will most likely come in pre-cut “lip shape” strips.
Next make sure lips are super clean and dry.
Apply an adhesive and wait for it to go from a milky tint to clear. PLEASE WAIT or the foiling will not work!
Now place the foil (shiny side up) on your lips and press. After a few moments you can gently remove and voila! A foil masterpiece! Retouch and repeat in order to fill in any gaps.

Getting stronger but not biggerIS possible, and we have the photo evidence to prove it! PLUS… did you know there is a major factor that will determine if you will bulk up at all? Actually, there are several and we are going to tell you about all of them. So then, put aside any hesitancy or reservations you may have about picking up a weight; because now it’s time to learn how to lift and stay lean!
Getting Stronger But Not Bigger- How to Lift and Stay Lean
As we have all been taught, it is true … that “seeing is believing.” One of the many fears us girls have when it comes to lifting, is that we are going to put on a dress for date night and resemble Arnold’s The Terminator. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
As a result, we thought that the best way for you to believe anything we are about to tell you about lifting; is if you can see what it really does with your own eyes. Sound good? Awesome, then keep scrolling to see 7 great examples of famous women who lift regularly.
Example Number One
Who: Supermodel and Victoria’s Secret alumni, Lais Ribeiro

Example Number Three
Who: Top model and Victoria’s Secret Angel, Jasmine Tookes
Example Number Four
Who: Model, fashion designer and reality superstar, Draya Michele
Example Number Five
Who: Instagram influencer and fitness guru, Massy Arias
Now here’s where the proof is really in the pudding. Remember how we said even when you get older lifting can do you a major favor? Not only are these next drop dead gorgeous ladies both moms; but they straight outdo chicks half their age! Presenting Halle Berry and Nicole Murphy!

Getting Stronger But Not Bigger- How to Lift and Stay Lean (Continued)
So then, did you notice anything about the above women? You know, other than they all have amazing bodies that would even look fabulous in a paper sack? Hopefully you took note that they all are still THIN and are very TONED thanks to LIFTING.
Yes, lifting isn’t an enemy. In fact, it can not only help you lose weight, but keep it off. Muscle burns fat. Time and time again science has proven that when you exercise you are using your muscle groups.
The more you use them the more opportunity to build muscle mass. The resulting muscle tissue will burn more calories, even when you are at rest! According to some research and studies, even 10 pounds of muscle would burn an additional 50 calories in a day spent at rest.
While on the contrast, 10 pounds of fat would burn only 20 calories. That is over 50% less of a calorie burn. So then, which would you rather work to have more fat or more muscle?
Getting Stronger But Not Bigger
Here is where working hard to gain more lean muscle comes into play. If you are able to maintain your muscle mass you will most likely find yourself in the group of people who keep from gaining weight as they get older. However, to maintain your muscle mass you will need to strength train. There is no way or shortcut around it; AND doing only cardio will not do it for you either.
Nevertheless, knowing all of that is wonderful, but if you do not do it out of fear of becoming “bulky” you will do yourself a major disservice. Oftentimes, the bulkiness look occurs when one is eating way too much while lifting weights. A lot of guys do this method in order to look “bigger.” However, it really boils down to one having excess body fat. While a calorie deficit will help you lose excess, when strength training you should never go below a 25% calorie deficit; or you may jeopardize your training from not being able to sustain your diet/workout routine.
If you are someone trying to be leaner the goal should be to add muscle without excess size. This can be achieved by stopping one or two reps before failure. Meaning before you literally cannot do another rep. If you push the muscle past failure and fatiguing you will encourage the muscle to add size. Therefore, your focus should be on gaining more strength while avoiding failure in order to build a more firm as well as dense looking muscle.

TAKE CONTROL! Stop letting various skin woes be a total drag. Learn once and for all; how to pick natural high quality skincare products that will forever change how you look. Advanced Skin Care is a regimen of cleansers, treatments, moisturizers, serums, etc. that are designed to heal, transform and promote the healthiest skin you have ever experienced.
However, there can be a slight hiccup. There are countless brands and companies out there that promise to deliver that little helpful ‘R’ word… “Results.” Yet, many still find themselves going to search for good products like they are Indiana Jones. Hidden yet never found. So what gives?
Advanced Skin Care -Total Guide to Picking Natural Quality Products Like a Pro
Selecting a good skin care product is quite often a total guessing game. What works for one person, might not work for another. Long lists of hard-to-pronounce ingredients make it nearly impossible to know what you might be putting on your skin. And, let’s not forget the cost of making the wrong decision; not only to your skin, but to your wallet. Yikes.
Furthermore, go to your local beauty store and you’ll undoubtedly find shelves upon shelves of nicely packaged skincare products all claiming to be the best. Who has the time or patience to decide? What’s worse, many skincare products on those shelves don’t come close to delivering the results they promise.
In a world where we’re increasingly exposed to more and more options and misleading advertising, it is vital you find the right information and products you can trust. One brand we would like to highlight today is Skin Moderne; a revolutionary skincare company committed to providing honest and natural products; AND makes it a goal to help consumers understand what makes a good skincare product great.
Three things. Yes, there’s three things you should always investigate about a product. Do you know them?
Well, no worries. Skin Moderne takes skin seriously, and fortunately, believes everyone should know exactly what they’re putting on their face. We recently had the pleasure of learning straight from the professionals at Skin Moderne what EVERY lady who desires to get her face glow on should look for and why.
Advanced Skin Care -Total Guide to Picking Natural Quality Products Like a Pro (Continued)
Here are the top elements that mark a safe, quality skincare product, so you never have to question your beauty store purchases again!
1) Clean Ingredients
Going back to the shelves at the beauty store, do you ever glance at the back of the bottles and wonder why so many of the products’ contents contain ingredients you can’t even pronounce? Do yourself a favor, and put it back on the shelf. Many common skincare products out there contain harsh, unnecessary chemical ingredients that can irritate and damage skin.
When searching for a safe skincare product with high-quality results, the first thing to look for is clean, organic ingredients. Skin Moderne, for example, only uses ingredients that are natural or naturally-derived. Our conscientious methodology and modern technology ensures we source only the best raw materials for our products. We keep our ingredient lists short, and save the harmful chemicals for our bathroom floor cleaner.
2) Biocompatible
When skincare products contain natural, organic ingredients, they are far more biocompatible than those chock-full of chemicals. Biocompatibility is another important element of great skincare products, because when ingredients are biocompatible, our bodies recognize the molecular structure of those ingredients and are able to easily utilize them and produce results.
To put it simply, if an ingredient isn’t biocompatible our bodies won’t recognize it and it can potentially become an irritant, creating chemical build-up and cellular toxicity. If that doesn’t make you double check what’s in your products, we don’t know what will.
Look for biocompatible ingredients. For example, our LIVE line of organic skincare products contains natural superfood extracts like blueberries, acai, kale, and pumpkin, which are highly skin compatible and recognizable by the body. They are rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants, giving the skin only what it needs to thrive.
Advanced Skin Care -Total Guide to Picking Natural Quality Products
3) Level of Efficacy
While this one can get a little technical, it is critical when it comes to great skincare products. Many people get frustrated with their skincare products, because they spend good money, but don’t see the results they were promised. Sometimes these products may contain quality, active materials, but they are used at such a low level that the product doesn’t have any efficacy and produces little results.
We addressed this issue by developing a unique nano-technology delivery system that allows the clean, active ingredients to penetrate the skin without being diluted. It is also designed to deliver the ingredients to areas where they will be most effective.
Advanced Skin Care -Total Guide to Picking Natural Quality Products Like a Pro (Conclusion)
Avoid information overload or buying, yet again, an ineffective skincare product. Stick to these guidelines and pick a quality skincare product every time. All of Skin Moderne’s products contain natural ingredients, are biocompatible, and highly effective. With high-quality ingredients, unique philosophies, and modern technologies, Skin Moderne is making a difference in preventative aging, aging reversal, and overall skin wellness.

Fenty Beauty Diamond Milk Gloss Bomb – Like Highlighter for Lips

It’s about to go down. Be ready for the mad dash to the cash register. This gloss bomb is available beginning on September 7th at fentybeauty.com. Also, get yours at Sephora, Harvey Nichols as well as Sephora in JCP.
Furthermore, for the record Rihanna is unmatched for giving her fans a sneak peek at her upcoming products. If you are wondering, yes, this is the same lip gloss that Rih showcased on social media a while back.

Those thoughts are valid; however, like any product it is all in how you apply it. Plus, you must always remember that no makeup product is like an “one size fits all.” It can work, but sometimes you may have to adjust a tad bit.
No one understands this better than legendary MUA (makeup artist), Sam Fine. Recently, Fine shared his ultimate tip to ensure that you achieve a flawless finish with the Makeup Forever Matte Velvet Skin Foundation.

To achieve a flawless finish, apply Matte Velvet Skin with a brush or sponge (he’s using a brush).
Then simply separate a 2ply tissue and blot smoothly. BAM! Flawless Unlocked.
Makeup Forever also has a few tips for any who want to get the most out of their newest foundation. The brand reveals,
“Adapt your tools according to the coverage you want. The Silex Blender is a multi-use sponge that enables to blend and stretch the foundation evenly on each and every part of your face.
With Matte Velvet Skin, it will ensure a medium coverage with just a small drop of product. Don’t forget to dampen it with water and wring it out the excess completely.
Always apply from the center of the face to the outer in order to unify the most visible part of the face and avoid any mask effects on the jawbones and forehead. [Lastly] shades may appear lighter when first applied. Make sure you refer to the dry shades when choosing yours.”
So now you know all about this new foundation. Plus, in not much time you have also learned some nifty tips and tricks. However, for those of you who are serious Makeup Forever fans or beauty enthusiasts; you may be wondering what is the difference between Makeup Forever’s Mat Velvet Plus and Matte Velvet Skin?

“Many of you are asking us about the difference between Mat Velvet Plus and the new Matte Velvet Skin. So we decided to break the ice!
The formula has been improved to enhance its breathing and bending properties. Matte Velvet Skin focuses on the comfort thanks to a truly lightweight texture; and the Flexifit technology that makes it extremely flexible thus following your face moves for a beautiful 24 hour wear. It’s just the new generation of matte!”
