Every Girl’s Nightmare – How to Avoid Foundation Flashback

Arianne SuggsUpdated on September 28, 2017September 28, 2017Leave a Comment

They came, they saw, yet you were the one left horrified! In the world of makeup, flashback is VERY real and at times happens to the most unsuspecting victims. It’s time to end this photo nightmare once and for all dolls! Today, we are going to teach you exactly how to avoid foundation flashback in all of your photos.

Every Girl’s Nightmare – How to Avoid Foundation Flashback

Thanks to social media platforms such as Instagram, foundation flashback is no longer just an issue plaguing only rich and famous celebrities. Most likely, you have seen this very unfortunate beauty blunder on a red carpet or two. The starlet in person looks absolutely breath-taking and then the cameras flash! All of sudden, the resulting photographs are casting a spotlight dead center on concealer or foundation that looks lighter than all other areas of the face.

That ladies and gentlemen in a nutshell is what we call foundation flashback. If you’re still not quite sure, please take a brief moment to review the evidence at the outset of this article as well as right below this sentence.

Got it? Well, then you are probably like well 1966 that kicks rocks so how do we avoid foundation flashback? Very simple. It all starts with a product’s formula.

Say what? Yes! Most of the issues surrounding foundation flashback have absolutely nothing to do with how a wearer applies their makeup. A lot of the fault and blame is found right in the ingredients. Therefore, what ingredients or kinds of products should be avoided?

Glad that you asked. First and foremost, try to avoid foundation that contains SPF. Now if you do not plan to take pictures during your outing than by all means use this type of foundation. However, if pics are in fact on the menu it is best that you abstain from this particular type of makeup.

Nevertheless, if you have a SPF foundation that makes you look like Naomi Campbell, Bey or RiRi and you can’t leave home without it on, we glad to tell you that there is a work around. You will need to set your foundation… correctly. In this case, you will want to utilize a setting powder that has color in it. Such a toned powder will help act like shield against flashback.

How to Avoid Foundation Flashback – Run, Don’t Walk!

Besides SPF there are few other things you want to be on the lookout for in your products. For instance, if you see Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide you may want to be a little wary. Especially, if they are active ingredients. Meaning that they are in high concentrations within the product formula. The bigger the amount the higher the risk.

What about mineral makeup? Many beauty experts argue back and forth about this. Some say its bad, others herald that you can work with it. Nevertheless, it should be noted that mineral makeup usually contains Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide. Remember, we discussed these two guys earlier? So then, when it comes to mineral makeup caution should be used.

While for some mineral makeup may not cause a flashback, they do run into the problem of tons of illumination. This is because once any flash contacts the makeup it can make skin look super shiny. To combat this issue you will need to blot skin often in order to reduce shine. Moreover, to be absolutely sure your mineral makeup will not be problematic it is best to run a test; but, more on that in a moment.

Lastly, you will want to give a side eye to HD foundations. Especially, when these babies are 100% Silica. Seriously, run don’t walk away! HDs such as this are the pits and if you use more than a very fine, light amount they are guaranteed to show up! So if you plan to use a heavy hand with HD foundation just say no in the name of all things picture taking.

Avoid Foundation Flashback – The Test

As a wise person once said, “Testing a product is a learning process.” So then, if you never do a test you will not really know how a product will perform. The quickest and easiest way to test for flashback is to take a picture with the camera’s flash on. Your smartphone’s camera will do just fine.

Simply apply your makeup like you normally would and then snap a flash photo. Carefully study the results. Does any part of your face have that “ghostly,” dusty white powder effect going on? If not, then you are good to go! However, if you look like a distant cousin of Casper then you have learned the deadly truth about your foundation and need to avoid using it when its time to slay while saying cheese.

Want a little more help in this makeup matter? Here is a nifty video that will help you learn how to set your foundation in order to avoid foundation flashback. This video demonstrates how to use the “baking” technique. Not quite sure what baking is? No worries this tutorial will explain that too, enjoy!

Arianne Suggs September 18, 2017September 18, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Rihanna Wearing Balenciaga Campaign Raincoat. The Barbadian singer was spotted in the blue Balenciaga coat while heading to and at the JFK airport on September 17.

You Asked: Rihanna is looking so good! I have loved all her looks this week however I love her causal looks the best. She is the kind of girl that can do both, but I prefer her laidback. Her airport look is so cool! Who’s her coat by and what are the other details of her outfit?

Ask and Tell: Rihanna Wearing Balenciaga Campaign Raincoat

The Verdict: Rihanna truly is a jack of all trades when it comes to personal flair and style. Her recent JFK airport ensemble included a Bape Ape Head Cap which retails for $90 as well as a Dior Oblique Canvas Bag. Now as for the coat you were asking about it is a raincoat by Balenciaga. It retails for splurge-worthy $2,100!

However, when you are a superstar there is no such thing as budget. Also, you can rock your own fashion line which Rihanna does often. Those black boots RiRi was wearing is from the Fenty x Puma Fall 2017 collection. They are currently not available for purchase, but will be soon.

Miss Destiny was among the high profile guests invited to Rihanna’s long awaited Fenty x Puma Spring and Summer seasons 2018 fashion show. Rihanna’s runway extraordinaire did “work” at the 69th Regiment Armory. In regards to the show, Ryan only had glowing remarks. She mentions,

“This entire SS18 collection called my name. Thank you for being a boss at everything you do Badgalriri (Rihanna).”

We could not agree more with those thoughts! Nevertheless, Ryan also explained just how much she is feeling her new hairstyle. She says,

“This hair makes me want to roundhouse kick a villain in a film. Or Trump in real life. With heels on. Thanks Wigs by D. Davis.”

If you are wondering who D. Davis is, Davis is the genius creator of Ryan’s winning NYFW hair look. Based out of Los Angeles, California Darnell Davis is also the celebrity hairstylist behind some of Ryan’s notable red carpet hairstyles as well. You may recall the voluminous, textured ponytail at this year’s Teen Choice Awards. Or who can forget Destiny’s sleek tresses at the BET Awards?

New York Fashion Week: Fenty x Puma SS18 Runway Show

Arianne Suggs September 11, 2017September 11, 2017Leave a Comment

Hello Moto! Rihanna once again brought Fashion Week to it’s knees! We’re talking about flying motorcycles, a rolling pink obstacle catwalk and of course the flyest models in the game. The Fenty x Puma SS18 fashion show was an edgy fashionista’s dream.

The songstress turned fashion designer showcased a runway show inspired by the Moto X, extreme sports community. The fashions are certainly of the athleisure fold. A popular trend designed for making athletic wear more stylish to be worn in situations outside of workouts or athletic activities.

The show was very much RiRi-eqse, making it a cinch to see bits and pieces of her personal flair throughout. Puma obviously agreed. While showing highlights of the Fenty x Puma SS18 show the Puma brand says, “Introducing the new daredevil Fenty x Puma collection by Badgalriri (Rihanna). Making waves the only way Rihanna can. NYFW.”

New York Fashion Week: Fenty x Puma SS18 Runway Show

Several pieces and garments caught our eye (i.e. tracksuits, hoodies, bodysuits and amazing outerwear). However, one element that could not be ignored is Rihanna’s fabulously designed shoes! Bold colors, interesting heel options, comfy slippers and thigh high sporty boots that are definitely made for walking slid their way down the catwalk. Furthermore, our personal favorite design is a flip flop converted into an ankle strap heel. It’s a laid back look with a certain je ne sais quoi that can not be ignored.

After the high energy show the lady of the hour briefly talked about her Fenty x Puma SS18 runway show. Miss Robyn Fenty says,

“When the X-Games come to fashion week. Thank you guys for making this show the best one yet! I feel like the coolest on the block now! Lol!

Shoutout to all my beautiful and talented models who absolutely murdered this show last night.”

So then, who were some of the models who stomped the catwalk yard? We loved seeing Joan Smalls, Slick Woods, Duckie Thot as well as Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima. Now no fashion show is complete without celebrity fanfare. Therefore, who made their way out to NYFW in order to support Rihanna’s big night? We spied Pharrell Williams, Big Sean, Cardi B, Jhene Aiko, Ty Dolla Sign, A$ap Ferg, Offset and Dave East to name a few.

Want to see more of the show? Keep scrolling to see several of the MX inspired looks! Two must-see styles include a blue strappy bodycon dress as well as all white couture ensemble. On that one check out the humongous silver hoop earrings!

The Item: Rihanna wearing Oscar de la Renta gown while attending the Fenty Beauty Launch Party. The soiree for the kick off to Rihanna’s new makeup collection was held in New York City.

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.
