Nevertheless, MAC Cosmetics senior artist, Ashley Rudder shared a few additional deets regarding the wipes,

“Now you can gently swipe away makeup, smudges, dirt and grime, while carefully coddling instead of stripping or stressing skin. Created specifically for sensitive skin and eyes. These non-irritating towelettes gently remove makeup, leaving the face feeling clean, refreshed, soothed and perfectly primed for makeup or moisturizer.

Feels as good as water on skin, with the benefit of erasing every last trace of makeup! MAC Cosmetics Gently Off Micellar Wipes available online and in-store September 7th in the permanent line.”

Fenty Beauty Sneak Peek! Mark Calendars, Dropping Online September 8

Arianne SuggsUpdated on September 1, 2017September 1, 2017Leave a Comment

Raise your hand if you want a Fenty Beauty Sneak Peek! Rihanna’s cosmetics line for a “new generation” is coming straight to your finger tips in just days. What’s on deck? Think major glow up products, lip gloss and oh so much more!

Fenty Beauty Sneak Peek! Mark Calendars, Dropping Online September 8

Are you ready? Fenty Beauty by Rihanna finally let the cat take a breath of fresh air out of the bag. The brand released a couple of visuals giving just a taste of what’s to be expected.

What is extremely noticeable right off the bat is a distinct deviation from the current mainstream look. Forget intense contour, cake face, heavy drawn on brows or boisterous eyeshadows tones. Thus far, Fenty Beauty appears rather “au natural.”

Literally, one of the only 2017 makeup trends we saw within any of the images seem to be highlighter as well as metallics. Then again, when was the last time anyone said that Rihanna’s makeup looked “so piled on and just like everyone else?” Therefore, it is a very nice departure that Rih is staying true to herself and designing her collection based on how she likes her own makeup to look.

Furthermore, one of the things we also adore when it comes to this sneak peek is the range of skin tones. Rih addresses girls from light to deep. At times certain shades in the spectrum get ignored. However, by the looks of things Rihanna is keeping girls of all colors close in mind.

It’s going down huh? Get your Fenty Beauty on when it drops Friday, September 8th (2017)! WARNING: Have a girls sleepover and stay up because purchasing begins promptly at 12 a.m.

2017 Beauty Trend: Squiggly Brows – Will You Ride This Wave?

Arianne Suggs August 31, 2017August 31, 2017Leave a Comment

Uhm… what in the brows on fleek is going on? This week a spanking new beauty trend turned the makeup and cosmetics realms right on their respective heads. Literally, no one saw this coming and no one can quite figure out how it began. However, squiggly brows are here and they are taking over social media faster than a lightening strike. Have you seen these wavy eyebrows and are you brave enough to give it a world?

2017 Beauty Trend: Squiggly Brows – Will You Ride This Wave?

This newest eyebrow trend is starting to remind us of a popular candy commercial tagline. First they’re sour and then they’re sweet. When the squiggly brows trend first hit it was immediately taken as, “Issa no for me dawg.” Nevertheless, now thoughts on these brows are starting to be more mixed. Some still are not quite feeling them, while others find them sort of intriguing.

Squiggly Brows are exactly what you think. Instead of arched or slighted rounded shapes, these brows literally look like Richter scale readings. Ups and downs, hills and valleys.

In some ways this look has a very futuristic vibe. Like come 3017, makeup enthusiasts might be referring to these brows as classic and retro chic. However, as a now they feel more like girls got tired of playing with their baby hairs so now they have decided to play with other hair on their face.

Furthermore, in cases like these we always like to see how the masses truly feel about these uniquely bold trends. Here is what people are saying online right now:

“How y’all do this?? Amazing.”

“But why do I actually love them.”

“What is this.”

“Dem brows though.”

“Ew.”

“It’s actually really cute!”

“Why is this happening.”

“Do people brush their eyebrows that way??”

“Lmao.”

“Please tell me these ain’t real.”

“First feather brows and now this.”

“It lowkey looks cute on you.”

Beauty Quickie: Best Dark Circle Concealer Tip- Use a Darker Shade

Arianne Suggs August 23, 2017August 23, 2017Leave a Comment

Beauty Quickie: Does it seem like your puffy eyes are thicker than a snicker? Fixing tired eyes to many may seem like a simple solution. For instance, many would say to simply get more beauty rest or slap on some concealer. While both fixes are noble, nevertheless, would you consider trying out a makeup tip that seems kind of unorthodox but the results can be beyond amazing? Well, just hear us out with today’s Beauty Quickie: Best Dark Circle Concealer Tip- Use a Darker Shade?

Best Dark Circle Concealer Tip- Use a Darker Shade

How do you normally apply concealer? For must of us, we pat or slide on one shade of concealer that extends from one end to the other end of our entire under eye area. However, our celebrity makeup professional friends say that to really make dark circles disappear it is recommended to use two different tones. A lighter shade as well as darker shade.

Use the lighter shade to highlight the crease (the area right where you feel bone beginning under your eye) and apply a slightly darker shade of foundation to the dark circle area itself. Remember dark colors help to disguise and minimize, while lighter colors highlight and pronounce areas.

Think this method doesn’t work? True or false, do most consider black or white to be a more slimming color? Right, the darker color is known for being able to create a slimming effect. This same principle applies with makeup. Therefore, use a darker shade along with your concealer and watch your dark circles disappear.

Second, you are certainly not alone when it comes to this particular beauty issue. Therefore, what can be done to make things easier and cleaner? Also, what is a little known fact as to why plastic spoons should always be used?

Applying Mascara to Bottom Lashes- Why Use a Spoon

Carefully placing a plastic spoon under your bottom lashes will help prevent any mascara from getting onto your skin. This will result in a much nicer makeup look finish and end result. Moreover, beauty professionals swear by another reason as well.

MUAs (makeup artists) the world over say that the plastic spoon technique also helps you achieve a thicker coat on your lashes. So then, your bottom lash line will look more dramatic as well as voluminous.

Not a fan of shoving spoons up under your eye? No worries, try purchasing shadow shields that can be bought online from Amazon. These shields are made to keep eyeshadow from getting all over your gorgeous face. However, they work just as well when it comes to applying mascara.
