What are you "CONCEALING?"

We normally think of "concealer" as a product to cover blemishes or facial imperfections, as well as dark circles under the eyes, but concealer can also be used to highlight certain areas of the face, especially using lighter colors and textures. 

Concealers with thicker consistencies are best for covering problem areas such as dark circles under the eyes or extreme redness on cheeks or noses.

Concealers with a lighter or thinner consistency are better for minimal coverage and for highlighting areas of the face that you want to accent.

Where do I begin?

A New Year is upon us. Are you thinking about changing your "look"? If you are like me, a change in makeup is exciting, but I don't want to waste money on products that are not right for me.  Being a certain age- be it 30, 40, 50, or beyond doesn't mean you have to overdo or undo your makeup either.  Regardless of your age, you need to find a makeup style that makes YOU look and feel beautiful.  This means finding colors that enhance your appearance and yes, practicing blending techniques that make it all look natural and smooth instead of contrived and painted on.

BB Cream- My New Go-To ! I've been playing with makeup since I had my first job and could buy it myself. I feel naked if I am not wearing at least a little, even to go to the grocery store...ok, so I guess that might be an addiction of sorts? What do you do when you are looking for a minimum amount of makeup, so you won't scare anyone- maybe a Saturday morning running errands? I recently discovered BB Cream!  BB Creams started hitting the U.S shelves in the Spring of 2011. BB Creams are short for "beauty balms" or "blemish balms". They were actually developed in Germany by a dermatologist who wanted a single cream that would protect the skin and provide coverage after laser skin treatments. Back to Saturday morning... BB Cream can streamline your beauty routine on the days where you simply don't have the time (or desire) to do your entire makeup routine. You can eliminate moisturizer, primer, and foundation with a good 3 in 1 BB Cream.  Hooray !...
