Besides Angelina's Leg, these are other looks I loved on the Red Carpet!

You have to give it to Angelina for stealing the show during the Oscars w/ her perfectly toned legs (or should i say LEG? lol ) to compliment that high split in her stunning dress! We couldn't keep our eyes off that leg but if you did get a chance to look at her face, her makeup was stunning! I love when she gives us that ultra glam look on the red carpet. Sultry eyes and red lips! Can we all just wake up w/ this makeup look? LOL I wouldn't mind seeing her rock this look more often. Don't you guys agree?


Another show stopper for the night was Miley Cyrus. The media said that this look kind of aged her, but i totally disagree. I think it is such a beautiful sophisticated look. If looking "older" means looking that glamorous, i wouldn't mind at all!!



JLO JLO JLO!! What can i say? She looked more than just amazing! With that jaw dropping dress she made a wise decision and went very light and natural with her makeup.


Milla Jovovich looked stunning with rich matte red lips that contrasted her one-shoulder white gown. The actress wore a waved side-parted bob while her eye makeup was kept soft and tame with rosy blush matching the lipstick. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

It's okay if you fake it, everyone does!!!

Living in Miami you realize that almost everyone walks around bronzed and beautiful. Not every one's schedule allows them to lay on the beach all day so why not fake it?  We are not talking about spray tans that smell horrible and leave streaks but by a simple bronzing lotion.

NARS Laguna Body Illuminator

This Bronzer gives off a deep shimmer with a gorgeous golden hue! NARS most popular face Bronzer is Laguna, so i was super excited to see they made this into a bronzing lotion.  
NARS Body Oil

This is NARS original body oil/bronzer. It leaves your skin looking super moist with a slight shimmer. In comparison to the LAGUNA BRONZER, this one does not give off as much color and shimmer.


Laura Mercier Body Bronzing Makeup

I ABSOLUTELY love this bronzing makeup. You will have a great beachy, coconut smell all day. Not as dark as the LAGUNA bronzer but still does the job.


Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs

You don't always have to splurge on these pricier products to get that BRONZE LOOK. Sally Hansens' spray bronzers are great. They give you the color minus the shimmer. With the variety of colors they make, you will not have a tough time finding the one that is right for you.

Wedding Bells in the Near Future? Grab the bridal must haves!!


LAURA MERCIER ILLUMINATING TINTED MOISTURIZER
MAKEUP FOREVER HD PRIMER

  

STUDIO FLUID M.A.C FOUNDATION
MAKEUP FOREVER DUO MATTE POWDER
 
SOFT AND GENTLE SKIN FINISH MINERALIZED POWDER


All of the products right above are products that i use on my brides. Flawless skin and bright eyes is the look that is always requested for that special day. Mixing the illuminating tint with the M.A.C studio fluid gives a super flawless look to the skin but still looks hydrated w/ that amazing glow. I also like to use a light touch of the Soft and Gentle skin finish powder. This is not a setting powder for your foundation, this is only used for high lighting. For touch ups and setting your makeup you should use: Makeup Forever DUO Matte powder.

$50 dollars for a complete brush set? YES ITS POSSIBLE! Read Below


I recently visited Walmart and I came across this brush line called HIGH DEFINITION. Every single brush was sold out, and i thought to myself, wow these brushes must be amazing, not even one brush was available. I went back 2 weeks later and found 2 brushes! I know what your thinking, WALMART? lol Ewwwww... lol I know that most drug store brushes are not good quality, either their super hard, hair is constantly falling off or you can just look at it and they seem very low quality. I don't know if  these brushes were initially suppose to go to SAKS or Neimen Marcus and some how ended up at WALMART but they are super soft and feel amazing. For some of you that say HIGH DEFINITION??? What is that? That just means that they give you a more even, well blended application. You look flawless, and who doesn't want that? Even comparing them to brushes i have (Chanel, Laura Mercier, Trish McEvoy, MAC) they are in the lead!
Look at the prices below! You will spend 50 dollars and come out w/ great brushes! Try them out you will not regret it!

Achieve perfect brows w/ these must have products!!



These 3 products are items that i use on my clients and also on myself! The first product is an EYE SHADOW BASE from LAURA MERCIER. Not only do i use this all over my lid but i also take it on my brow bone and sometimes even on my eye brow. The whole purpose of an eye base is that it prevents your lid from becoming oily therefore making anything you put on top of it last longer. The second must have item is TARTE EYE BROW PENCIL. I no longer use regular pencils that you have to sharpen, retractable pencils are the way to go. Why u ask? The smaller tip of the pencil not only looks more natural but blends in better with your own brows, and its water-proof and humidity proof! Then last but not least i like to take this ANASTASIA EYEBROW POWDER and fill my brows for an even long lasting result.
