Milani Classy Nude Lip Stick

Milani Classy Nude: My New Everyday Lipstick

As I get older I find myself wanting to wear more lip stick and less lip gloss.

I’m not sure if it’s actually the “age” thing or if I’m really just into lipstick. But, nowadays I can’t walk out of the house with smearing on a tube of color.

But, alas, there’s a slight issue. The majority of the lipsticks I own are bold. I’m talking hot pink, bright fuchsia, even my toned down colors aren’t really toned down.

After Smashbox Makeover

“Bold Spring” Makeover with Smashbox & Ulta

Yesterday evening I made my way over to Ulta to partake in their 21 Days of Beauty. As luck would have it, it was “Smashbox Day” and I was one of many recipients of a free makeover.

To being my transformation Ulta make-up artist Kristia asked me about my skin and what look I would like to try. Having no place to go, but home, I told her to do as she pleased.

Tips & Tricks for Kissable Lips

Ok, so Valentine’s Day has come and gone.

But, just in case you plan to share your love for the other 364 days of the year, you might want to make sure your lips are in top notch shape.

Here are a few tips from Pretty City on how to keep your lips “kissable.”

Treat
“You apply moisturizer for your face daily, you dab cream delicately under your eyes religiously, but the skin on and around your lips goes totally unattended. The first step on the road to oh-so-pretty puckers is to start treating lips daily with a product designed to soften vertical lip lines and prevent premature aging.”

Me, My Hair & the City: Inside My MakeUp Bag

My Survival Kit: Inside My Makeup Bag

The majority of the women I know tote around handbags: hobos, satchels and the like

Within these bags we transport everything from papers to cell phones, and sometimes even food. However, one thing remains constant in any woman’s purse. That one thing would be her makeup bag.

What I carry inside my makeup bag has changed over the years but the strategy behind what I put in it is still the same.

I view my makeup bag as a sort of survival kit.

Just in Time for Valentine’s Day: A Million Kisses Lip Tint

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! What better way to celebrate with your boo, or family and friends, than to rock a beautiful red lip.

In the spirit of red lips, and to pre-prepare for the yearly “day of love,” I tried Lush’s A Million Kisses Lip Tint.

I applied a small finger swipe of the tint to my kissers and POW! My lips were serving up a powerful punch of red!

After Bobbi Brown Makeover

Makeover Magic with Yasmine & Bobbi Brown Cosmetics

It’s been years since I received a makeover. So when I had the chance to have a professional Bobbi Brown makeup artist transformer my face during Nordstrom’s Fall 2011 Cosmetics Trend Show I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

Veteran makeup artist Yasmine started my makeover experience by cleansing my skin. She then applied a hydrating lotion & brightening moisture cream.

After cleansing & hydrating Yasmine used a concealer & corrector to even out my skin tone. That step was followed by the application of Bobbi Brown’s stick foundation, which I love!! It matched my complexion perfectly!

What’s That For?: A Beginners Guide to Makeup Brushes

Have you ever been at a department store beauty counter and had your face sculpted into a thing of beauty by a makeup artist.

They usually perform their miraculous makeover with different shades of blush & eye shadow, amongst other things, all while wearing, & using, a belt full of brushes.

Having found myself in this exact situation, more than once, I have often thought, “what are all those brushes for?”

Revlon Custom Eyes

No Fuss Eyeshadow for the Makeup Artist in You!

Although I frequent beauty blogs, like The Style and Beauty Doctor, for makeup tips & tricks I still find myself overwhelmed when faced with an eyeshadow pallet & brush.

I’m not sure where my “pallet intimidation” comes from but, when face-to-face with so many color choices, I become puzzled and indecisive.
