Individual Lash-a-palooza






add some secret glamour to your eyes...with some individual lashes...
they don't look as "theatrical" as a full set (even though I think they are fun too), and you can bet that most celebs like Kim Kardashian, Nicole RIchie, PAm Anderson, and many more, NEVER go out to a public event without a full set or 2 on......some do a full set of thick lashes, with a full set of long ones on top...it feels like you have 10 pounds of eyelashes on!
So what I use is:

Ardell Medium & Short LAshes (i get mine for super cheap at Wal-Mart)



I like Duo Lash glue (the clear kind is "longer lasting") or Ardell lash glue



you can use tweezers to put them on, but I like using my fingers

I put about 3-4 medium length ones on the outter corner and then do 3 or so towards the top of the eyeball (the center of the eyelid)
remember not to glue them to the lashes themselves (this will damage your lashes and make it really painful to get them off!)
just glue them to the skin right above the lashes, so it's like it resting on top of the lashes but glues to the skin, as if they were growing out of yout eyelid...
if you mess up, just pull it off and start over!
let's get lashing....

It's time for love and dancing!



I can almost hear the dj's firing up their cd's for the dancing....
wedding season is almost in full swing...
and prom is boosting the sales of semi-formal dresses everywhere...

and my role:
make-up super-hero to save the day...
run from the lady at the salon that says she's a make-up artist....and the make-up salesperson at your local mall...

I have a classic, pretty look...that will last all night...won't melt off your face, and won't make you look like a or street-walker...

the colors I picked look great on all skin tones...and or dress colors!

get out this stuff and watch:

FACE: watch my video on flawless skin
highlighter: cream highlighter in SHELL from MAC (a peachy-pearl color),and QUICKTAN TONE powder highlighter from MAC (i think it's discontinued, but any white-pearly highlighter will work

BLUSH: BLUNT from MAC (a darker peach-bronze color without shimmer) CUBIC from MAC ( a rose-pink without shimmer or sparkle)
EYES: BRULLE from MAC (a nude matte color), YOGURT from MAC (a light nude-pink matte color)NAKED LUNCH (a shimmery peach-pearl color), CHARCOAL BROWN from MAC (a cool chocolate brown), CARBON from MAC (dark black with no sparkle)
you can also substitute the CHARCOAL BROWN for a grey like PRINT from MAC


EYELINERS:
WATERPROOF is essential for wedding make-up...
BLACK waterpoof liquid liner
BLACK waterproof eyeliner like ENGRAVED from MAC
MASCARA: BLACK waterproof mascara (in the video I used FIBER RICH MASCARA from MAC but it's not waterproof)
INDIVIDUAL LASHES:
I used ANDREA Indiviual lashes (I get them at Wal-Mart) in medium and short
then I use ARDELL LASH GLUE (preferably the clear kind for individual lashes)
and a pair of tweezers if you want...I just use my fingers

LIPS:
lipiner in POSH from Benefit
lipstick IN TANARAMA from MAC
gloss in any shade of nude-pearly-shimmer (like MouthWatering from MAC or I used a cheap one from the drug store in a light pinky-pearl color)

have fun watching!
