Get The Look: NY Fashion Week on a Budget

For my beauties that want to look flawlessly off the runway but without breaking the bank:
As you may have seen at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2012, a very natural and minimalist look dominated the faces of models in the runways in New York last week. We saw a new makeup trend, which didn’t focus on the eyes nor the lips but on a very clean skin and it  was surprising to see models that looked as if they had no makeup at all! Although we all know that’s really not the case… makeup artists used exact tones to make models’ skin look  flawless.
In order to create this natural look (steps below) we need to understand that it is all about the skin and for many, we need to begin by matching our skin with a good foundation that will not only make us look radiant but also instantly cover discolorations and age spots and improve skin tone over time via hydration such as COVERGIRL & Olay Tone Rehab 2-in-1 Foundation.

Face:
Apply a small amount of COVERGIRL & Olay Tone Rehab 2-in-1 Foundation  to the center of your face and blend outward toward the hairline. Use COVERGIRL & Olay Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush in Plush Peach along the cheekbones to add a sculpted look.

Eyes:
Apply COVERGIRL Intense Shadow Blast in Brown Bling to the entire eyelid, smudging all the way up to the eyebrow with your finger to create a soft intensity. Use COVERGIRL Intense ShadowBlast in Beige Blaze on the inner corners of the eye to make them pop. Apply two coats of COVERGIRL LashBlast 24 Hour Mascara to the upper and lower lashes.

Lips:
Finally, create a stunning natural lip look with COVERGIRL LipPerfection Lipcolor in Sultry.

I got that Smokey kinda love...

I have like never watched a Miss Universe Pageant but I saw that everyone and their mom was twittering about Miss Guatemala looking GORGEOUS so I had to peep it out.  For those who don't know My Mom is Guatemalan & my Dad is Salvadorean but I was born & raised in New Jersey but I never forget my roots.  Those who know me know that i often long for trips back to their home because its a 180 from living here not that i'm complaining because life is def. better here.  It just happens that everyone back home is humble and its always peaceful.  

 
 


That being said Miss Guatemala was EFFIN GORG! For like the first time in forever, and I was so surprised.  She was very kardashianesque and she was rocking that smokey eye.  Well a lot of the girls were and it instantly rekindled my love of smokey eyes.

Project Recreation: Demi Lovato

I never payed Demi Lovato any mind because she was on Disney, so I just assumed she was Miley Cyrus Pt.2.  Not My Cup Of Tea!  Fast Forward to earlier this week when I went to see her in concert.  I was truly surprised.  She came out actually signing not lip syncing to a pre-recorded track!  Surprising now a days, I know.  But what really got me was her make-up.  I was intrigued because it was such a simple look but it was really pretty to me. 

I had a couple of make-up ideas I've been wanting to do but I decided  on this simple recreation of Demi's look from the other night at the concert.  It could be categorized as a back to school look or even a work look.

TIP: want your lipstick to stay on longer???  apply your foundation, concealer & powder to your lips before lipstick/gloss.  It helps to neutralize your lip color and gives a base for the lipstick to adhere to.

Good things come to those who wait

My youngest niece Jascenia, but I call her Mimi, had been telling me or months how she wanted to go to this Camp Rock: The Final Jam Concert for months now.  When tickets first went on sale they were $39 for lawn tickets, so I was like OH HELL NO.  Lawn tickets are like nose bleed but worse because u sit on the grass, I can sit on my own grass for free! LOL  I guess they weren't selling out because last week I got wind that there were $10 lawn seats, but being the busy bee that I am I forgot.  My oldest niece was invited by someone the night before the concert that scored $10 lawn seats so I made my way to ticketmaster and was I surprised.  I purchased 2 $10 tickets for INSIDE the arena AND we were in the middle!  SCORE, I had one happy kid!


Anyways I had no idea how to do my make-up so I just threw some colors on & I liked the outcome.  If you've always wanted to wear a bright color but are afraid DEF. pair it up with neutrals & you won't be upset.

This wasn't what I had in mind...

 when I started doing my make-up But I liked the way it turned out!  
I'm on a personal mission to use products that I have hardly touched ever since I bought them.  Well pincurl is one of those colors that are so pretty because of the duocrome but I had no idea what to do with it.   I had envisioned doing something different with it but it didn't work out that way.  But I will do another FOTD with it soon.

Naked Honey

I loved that collection!  Even tho there were only 3 shadows I used them so much last summer and somehow i forgot about them.  Well yesterday I wanted something a little more neutral so of course I broke out some old favorites.  and I absolutely fell in LOVE with this lip combination the the lovely Jessica came up with in a recent FOTD.  I couldn't resist and tried it out!

Something like a Sunset

I haven't been buying make-up like I used to because I feel like i have many things that are untouched....  So going into my stash I found this palette that I made a couple years back at the Make-up Forever Booth at the  NYC make-up show.  I found this raspberryish color and I had to use it today!


BTW I didn't use foundation today because I felt like my skin looked dull so I mixed Mac's vanilla pigment to give my skin a glow and it worked!  I love it!

Project Recreation: Kim Kardashian

Love her or hate her you have to admit she's ALWAYS put together hair, make-up, clothes shoes and accessories.  From the first season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians until today it has been a major transformation.  I LOVE HER!  Idc about all the extra stuff people always talk trash about her about.  We all have something we are not proud of.  But she is everywhere and she's making $$$ doing it.  I loved her make-up when Mario D. was doing it but she has gotten a new make-up artist as of late and i've really been loving all her looks lately.  I loved her look for Lala's wedding & Khadijah's wedding.

Last week the Kardashians unveiled their new Beach Bunny Bikini line with a fashion show.  I liked how her make-up was done in all matte's a change from the shimmery bronze smokey eyes she has been sporting as of late.


OH and I have a new found respect for mother's with  young children seriously!  Somehow I ended up watching my 13 month old nephew & 2 nieces and boy is managing to watch kids and stay pretty is hard!  I didn't get to take many pictures because as soon as I was done they came down and were hungry! The nerve right! lol

Cam Whorin'

Who loves Revlon Colorstay????  I tried it because I saw so many ladies all over with bangin' skin in their photos but Guess what???    I DIDN'T LIKE IT!  It didn't look good on my skin and it was really heavy.  AND my skin hated it 2 days later and my skin is dry and itchy.  Plus it didn't match my skin tone.  I'm really yellow-olive and none of the colors matched my skin ... OH WELL i guess ...

ANYWAYS

Sometimes I go through times where I can't come up with a new combination to save my life so I revert to an old combo BUT I hate do the same thing over and over and over again ...  So I was looking through the MAC combination list website and Passionate isn't the color I was looking to use but I liked the combo so today I tried it out.  Obviously I tweaked it to my liking.  & my camera was cooperating SO i got lots of pix sorry lol
