Beauty Buzz: Double Time

By |June 5th, 2014|Beauty Buzz|

woman-vanityI recently read a parody about the differences between men and women- one of which was the number of products stowed in our bathroom cabinets.  They quipped men used about six and women had probably amassed over two hundred (men could identify only twenty of those items).  While, I certainly don’t have that many because I run a tight ship in my medicine cabinet, there’s not much room for anyone else’s shaving cream.  Last week was all about beauty products that work their magic overnight, but how about saving room when packing for weekends away?  The only thing more terrifying to a man than opening his own medicine cabinet to find the tampons you’ve stashed there is seeing you show up with two bags- one for your clothing and another for the sole purpose of your beauty regime.  Rememer, we woke up like this.  Save time, money, and space (and your boyfriend’s sanity) by employing products that are multipurpose.  Whether it be using conditioner as shaving cream or Aquaphor as both lip and eyelash treatments or the cult classic, NARS multiple for cheeks, lids, and lips, these products are working double (and sometimes triple) time.

Beauty Buzz: Orange You Going to Try This?

By |March 17th, 2011|Beauty Buzz|

While red lips are here to stay, at times they can seem a little heavy for the warmer spring and summer months.  Luckily, makeup artists everywhere were painting a new shade on the lips of the models backstage at the Spring shows (shown here at Milly).  A variation on fire engine red was tangerine orange.  Whether is was glossy or matte, deep coral or soft peach, this hue showed up on runway after runway.

Just like red lipstick, orange also takes a bit of trial and error to find the perfect shade for your skin and hair.  Below are three citrus fueled shades to test out on your pretty pucker:

1. MAC Pro Longwear Lip Creme in Good To Go, $16, 2. Napoleon Perdis DeVine Goddess Lipstick in Hara, $22, 3. Makeup Forever Rouge Artist Intense #40, $19

 

Juicy!
