“Every year of my life I grow more convinced that it is wisest and best to fix our attention on the beautiful and the good, and dwell as little as possible on the evil and the false.”

Beauty Quickie: Always keep an extra set of mascara wands on hand to take the clump out of your lashes. Mascara formulas have come a long way, but still even the best ones will need a helping hand every now and then. Before your mascara completely dries take a clean mascara wand and comb through your eyelashes. Not only will this ensure that your lashes do not clump, but will create a fuller more lush eye look.
Do you love eyeliner makeup designs but find that creating them on yourself is as difficult as pushing a ball of yarn through the eye of a needle? Do you always seem to create the cat-eye look that you want only to smudge it? If you answered yes to one or both questions then boy do we have the product for you!
Eye Rock Designer Liner are easy to apply stick-on adhesives that allow you to create an array of dazzling eye makeup designs. Simply peel a liner you desire to use, cut it to fit your eye then place it as close to the lash line as possible. If there is a little space between the stick-on adhesive and your lash line, just fill in the space with eyeliner and you are set!
Beauty Quickie: Concealer is an excellent product to help fix eyes that look a little puffy. However, should you apply concealer that is lighter or darker to cover up any dark circles? Beauty experts recommend using a darker shade of concealer because darker colors recede. This means darker tints will make any bags look less pronounced.
Beauty Quickie: Some of the best makeup artists in the world will tell you that a few of your best makeup tools are found right on your own two hands…your fingers. Your fingers can apply makeup in ways that brushes and sponges can’t. However, when applying eye makeup you need to take a gentler approach due to the skin surrounding the eye being very delicate. When applying eye makeup with your fingers it is best to use your ring finger. This is because your ring finger uses less force than the rest of your fingers.
Being the glitter queen that I am I had to do a quick write up in the behalf of Zoya. I just wanted to thank them for understanding my need to sparkle and shine (LOL). Zoya has released a collection of glitter-tastic nail lacquers named Arianna (hey now! I’m Arianne), Oswin and Noir.
The mini collection’s colors fall in the red and plum families. I’m absolutely in love and can’t wait to add them all to my ever-growing nail polish collection. Want to get your hands on the Zoya Ultra PixieDust Fall 2014 Collection as well? Order yours now online by going to zoya.com. Happy painting!
Beauty Tip: Did you know that if you have chipped nails you can easily fix them with glitter? Just add a layer of glitter polish on top and the chipping will be disguised as a chic nail design. Shhhh…no one will know but you!
