God made us all beautiful. Beauty has no color. This look was inspired by the comment section in the picture where I had multiple shades. We as a people need to stop this race competition. No one is better than another. We are all equal in the eyes of God. Moreover if he sees us as equal why don’t we?
This world is hurting. Furthermore, we all need to learn how to accept each other. It’s 2017 let’s get it together now and more importantly we need to start loving more as well as forgiving.
As a makeup artist and lover of all people I challenge my other makeup artist friends to recreate this look and post with the hashtag Beauty Has No Color. There is nothing wrong with appreciating beauty. There is nothing wrong with being an artist. Stop being a hater and learn to love with your whole heart.”

There is a growing trend of women shaving their face and it has absolutely NOTHING to do with hair removal. For years, we have seen men shave on a daily basis and as girls we probably never thought about doing it ourselves. However, now you may want to give this easy beauty technique a go. Face shaving has many benefits that will simply amaze you!
Women Shaving Their Face – The Beauty Trend That Works
Before we get into how to do it, let’s first talk about why you should. First of all, face shaving has the ability to improve your complexion. Say what?! This is because it can help to prevent clogged pores.
When it comes to skincare prevention is everything. If pores are kept from clogging up then you can skip developing unsightly acne (yay). Shaving is now looked as being a natural exfoliant. Therefore, like a facial scrub it can make your skin softer and keep breakouts at bay without any harmful or harsh ingredients. Can we get an amen?
Moreover, another benefit is the great base shaving can achieve when it comes to makeup application. Since your skin will be smoother from all the razoring, your foundation in turn will go on effortlessly. As you can see, with so many perks it is no wonder women shaving their face regularly is picking up speed!
Women Shaving Their Face – The Tool
If you want to add shaving to your beauty regimen you will need the right tool. Now before you make the mistake of running out to buy a whole bag of regular disposable Bic razors, just don’t. You will honestly be wasting your money.
The razors you use to shave your legs are not the ones you will be using on your face. Instead you will need to purchase a facial razor. Facial razors look more like flattened toothbrushes with small razors at the head instead of bristles. Trust us you will know them when you see them.
Women Shaving Their Face
Now that you know why and what to use, it is time to find out what’s the process. Ready to get started? Great! Here’s how to shave your face properly:
Wash your face with your favorite cleanser and then let your face dry completely.
Next, dab toner all over your face. Like after cleansing for best results allow your face to dry all the way after your application of toner.
Now the time has come ladies to shave! Take your facial razor and gently begin shaving your entire face. Be sure to shave the forehead, cheeks, sides and chin. When shaving use short, small strokes. Also, be sure to avoid shaving zits or moles. Simply work around such areas and continue shaving like normal.
Lastly, apply a face serum to your face and you are all finished.
Pretty simple right? In just a few steps you can be on your way to better looking skin. All with the help of a little blade.

Your skin doesn’t have to feel like you just finished a pilgrimage through the world’s harshest desert. You can beat dehydrated skin by stocking your beauty bag with a few key picks. For this reason we are sounding off today on the best makeup for dry skin!
Best Makeup For Dry Skin: Too Faced Hangover Rx
To beat an actual hangover you need to replenish things that alcohol unfortunately stripped away from the body. This same tactic can be applied to skincare. Oftentimes skin can be stripped of much needed moisture due to outside elements such as dry, winter air.
Therefore, in order to get your skin back on track you need to replenish what your skin lost in the first place. Too Faced cosmetics has made this super easy by developing a restorative face primer. It actively works to not only revive skin but keep it in top notch shape.
How does Too Faced Hangover Rx accomplish revival? It is a silicon free, probiotic based ingredient product that is also infused with coconut water. Moreover, such a combination results in a smoother, hydrated and radiant complexion. If you have dry skin this is definitely the product for you.
Not only will you be keeping your face well-moisturized, but you will also be creating an awesome base for your cosmetic looks. Since Hangover Rx is a primer it is a great first step to prepping your face properly. As a result, you will certainly notice a difference in the overall look of your makeup.

Kelly Rowland has always had a skin tone to die for! From her DC (Destiny’s Child) days to the present she is still killing it. Not a single wrinkle or blemish as far as the eye can see. Black may not crack, but the fact remains that a great skincare routine helps too. Recently, the fab singer and fashionista shared her daily beauty regimen.
Kelly Rowland Shares Her Daily Skincare Routine
Four products make up Kelly Rowland’s daily morning ritual. They are Clarisonic, Control Corrective Oil Free Sunscreen, Is Clinical Cleansing Complex and Katalaya Skin Care Gentle Cleanser. This just goes to show that a few products as well as minutes can give you the skin you really crave.
Upon this big beauty reveal a few celebrity dolls weighed in on Kelly’s skincare routine. Tennis player, Serena Williams, mentioned, “Mine consists of hot water and a towel.” A little humor that definitely a lot of us can relate to!
Nevertheless, Rowland’s products are at the top of our skincare routine list. Clarisonic is great for deeper cleansing and we also love the fact that they have developed brush heads that serve various purposes. You can tell the difference by looking at the brush heads hues. For instance, blue is for deep pore, green works for acne cleanse and pink is specifically for radiance.
However, if you are in the market for an awesome cleanser consider Is Clinical Cleansing Complex. This is product that is formulated with a powerful antioxidant blend that includes Vitamins A, C and E. Also, is great for congested or acne prone skin as well as those who require a more “gentle” formula. Furthermore, because it is so gentle it can be used daily. Score!
Lastly, dolls do not sleep on wearing sunscreen. Melanin is not a superhero barrier against sun damage. You may not burn as easy as lighter skin tones but you still need to protect your body’s largest organ, the skin. Do this by using Kelly’s pick, Control Corrective Oil Free Sunscreen. It’s perfect rain or shine and since it is oil free it will protect you with a SPF of 30 without clogging pores.

O-M-G dolls! We totally feel transported back to simpler times of trapper keepers, Moesha, Sister, Sister and Boy Meets World. 90’s kids lived vibrant lives and enjoyed some of the coolest toys and products. One of them hands down without any contest was Lisa Frank.
Lisa Frank Makeup Line…the 90s Keep Coming Back
Actually, in reality Lisa Frank was responsible for a whole slew of awesome products. Lisa gave us folders, tee shirts, wall paper, leggings and stickers galore. Moreover, there were also pens, pencils, backpacks, tank tops, sweatshirts and even hats.
She was literally your one stop shop for back-to-school goodies. At summer’s end when it came time to buy school supplies Lisa Frank was definitely one of the things you were tossing into the basket. Hopefully, without mom noticing how much you were running up the school supplies tab (haha).
Nevertheless, what was the appeal? Why did so many young girl’s flock to Tar-Jay (Target if you’re bougie) every year to get their little hands on some merchandise? Simply put Lisa Frank is one of a kind.
When you get a glimpse of a LF product you instantly know its a Lisa Frank creation. The cutesy use of animals both real and fairytale, plus don’t even get us started on the colors! Just an explosion of epic-ness making contact with your line of vision.
Every piece and product has also always been so well developed with the signature boisterous use of hues and shades. In turn, making everything so extremely fun as well as entertaining to look at. You could spend as much time trying to find Waldo in a sea of people as you would trying to take in one illustration created for a Lisa Frank folder. Her products are seriously that dimensional.
Furthermore, thanks to Lisa Frank, a girl’s world truly could be chalk full of unicorns and rainbows. She made it cool to enjoy being bold and girly simultaneously. Most importantly, Frank was one of the first brands to really cater to young girls and make it a real lifestyle.
Lisa Frank Makeup Line- The Time is Oh So Right
With all that being said it seems so crazy that it has taken this long for things to get this point. A marriage between makeup and Lisa Frank feels as though it should of occurred almost two decades ago, but times were different back then. How so?
In the 90’s kids were still… well kids (LOL). There was no such thing as Youtube tutorials, contouring or social media pics showing how to achieve a “beat face.” Little girls played in mommy’s makeup smearing lipstick across their tiny faces. However, it was just that, playing.
Back then there was no real connection between the beauty industry and young girls as well as pre-teens. The only real makeup little girls were rocking back then was Barbie peel off nail polish, clear roll-on lip gloss and flavored Lip Smackers lip balm. If you care to know we were addicts over the soda pop ones. Specifically, Dr. Pepper.
However, we digress. If you really want to see why a LF cosmetics line may have not worked too well in the 80’s and 90’s just look over a little visual evidence. Seriously, compare pics of young girls now with young chicks from the 90s and the pics are drastically different.
Nevertheless, all of this just illustrates just how times have changed. Young women have more of an interest in makeup now. Everyone wants to look flawless and post about it online. Blame it on social, TV or even the movies. It doesn’t really matter, the fact is just as many 12 year olds know about Urban Decay as a 25 year old.
Therefore, this creates the perfect atmosphere for more brands to not only widen their consumer base, but get on the ground floor to scoop of customers they will have for decades to come. To fill and reach this new market they are promoting younger brand ambassadors and even pushing aside typical models for more “real” relatable girls. Nevertheless, that is the beauty of Lisa Frank, she doesn’t have to create youthful appeal, her products already possess it.
Lisa Frank Makeup Line
Alright, by now we’re sure you are wondering what you can expect from the upcoming Lisa Frank Makeup Line. Frank has collaborated with New Jersey based company Glamour Dolls in order to create fresh, fun products. If you are afraid of the Lisa Frank classic style being comprised don’t be. Jessica Romano, the co-founder of Glamour Dolls promises, “Our brand is bold and colorful and fun and it just aligns perfectly with her image and her brand.”
Whew! Well that is certainly beauty music to our ears. Furthermore, if you look up Glamour Dolls you will find a slew of festive tinted products accompanied by awesome spunky names. Definitely Lisa Frank-esqe. Also, another thing we love about GD is that they create cruelty-free products. Therefore, you will be able to indulge freely without feeling like you are doing damage to the animal kingdom.
So then, what’s on tap first for the Lisa Frank cosmetics line? So far on the Glamour Dolls website you will find an angled blush brush. Frank personally designed the artwork and you will instantly notice the familiar unicorn print on the brush’s handle. Plus, there’s more products on the way!
Already set to be apart of the lineup is a: highlighter powder, liquid eyeliner, makeup bag and mousse lip color. Moreover, one product we are salivating to see is the Unicorn Lippie. Like what will that look like and what will be it’s shade? Only time shall tell and we can’t wait!
Glamour Dolls promises that the collection will be perfect for young girls as well as adults who adore the brand and of course…color! If you would love for things to progress quicker with the Lisa Frank line, remember money talks. Head on over to Kickstarter to donate to the line. Already $100,000 has been collected so things are definitely plowing on ahead.

Beauty Tip-To pump or not to pump that is the real question! Applying mascara can give your eyes a major pop, but there’s something that many girls do that can turn into a real ugly problem! No matter what ladies NEVER PUMP your mascara. Instead scroll on to learn a really easy tip for rectifying this issue. Nevertheless, why do we do it in the first place? What is the deal with pumping mascara out of a bottle anyway?
Applying Mascara: Pumping Mascara Out of Bottle
Well to make things simple, most women engage in some pumping action in order to place more product onto the mascara product’s wand. Usually this becomes necessary when a mascara is a little older and not so much formula seems to make its way out anymore. Girls think by vigorously pumping they will save time and get more formula out the bottle.
Nonetheless, whether your mascara is old or not you just should not pump at all when applying mascara. Pumping a wand in and out actually works against your desired result for two reasons. For one, the air that gets trapped inside the bottle dries out the liquid inside. Also, you could force in bacteria as well as cause your mascara to clump and flake. Can you say yuck?
Moreover, in the long run this can result in spending more money from having to buy mascara much sooner than otherwise expected. Therefore, to avoid this what should be done? Is there any makeup trick that can be utilized to get more product out without drying out what’s inside?
To get more quantity (mascara formula) onto the mascara brush simply twirl the brush. Yes dolls just twirl those wands inside the bottle like you are Gone with the Wind fabulous! However, to avoid forcing unwanted air into the bottle, simply give the wand a nice and easy 90 degrees twirl before pulling it out.
As you can see applying mascara doesn’t have to eventually cause a potential beauty disaster. Just do the twist with your wand. Twirling will lessen the amount of trapped air so that you can create a nice separated, voluminous look.
