Things have been super crazy with work and my birthday this last week that I haven't had much time to write or make any video tutorials. But I'm back and I thought I'd start with one of my favorite looks.
Angelina Jolie looked amazing at the Oscars this year. Her makeup was sublte but very pretty and sexy. Her skin was radiant and she accentuated all her features flawlessly.
The main aspect of this look is defining the eyes with liner and lashes. She used very little shadow on her lids, just enough to create some definition.
Her skin is very dewy so to achieve this I mixed a mineralize foundation with a dewy foundation and used very little powder.
Her eyebrows are well defined and her lips are kept nude with touch of gloss.
Are you a buxom babe? Ok, fine...better question is...do your lips live up to their full potential? If you said no to either of those questions then I have a solution for you. Buxom Babes Lip Polish Duo. Yup, that's right, I said duo. Two is always better than one! Bare Escentuals has two great sets for you ladies. One containing Buxom Babes Lip Polish in Destiny (peach nectar) and Amber (washed peach), the other kit includes Brandi (candied plum) and Sugar (rose glow). Buxom lip glosses give you voluptuous and fuller lips with the aid of vitamin A & E. These sets are limited edition so get on it babes!

MAC is doing a lot this year and I am loving every single minute of it. They just launched a new limited edition line of mineralize blushes called Grand Duos. This line is great because each compact has marbleized "mélange" colour on one side and then a mono- shade on the other. The blushes provide a beautiful sheen as well as a great glow. Here is a listing of the colours available:
Marc Jacobs has released a limited edition version of his fresh and feminine Daisy perfume. The elegant perfume has notes of strawberry, violet leaves, ruby red grapefruit, gardenia, jasmine petals, musk, vanilla, and white woods. This alluring scent is perfect for elegant and edgy ladies.
