Beauty Tip of The Day!

Brides to be....

    Spring is just around the corner and with that said let the wedding season begin... Every year at this time I start getting calls from many brides-to-be to have me do their makeup for their big day! I cant complain because I LOVE working on weddings! Its just a fun atmosphere! You cant help but get sucked into the excitement of it all. I get taken back to my wedding day and feel those same nervous, happy, and love feelings as I talk with the brides and make them feel beautiful for their special day.
    With all the emotion this day brings there are bound to be tears! But as a Makeup Aritst its my duty to prevent you from "crying ugly".  ;)  No bride wants to have black streams falling down her cheeks or smudged mascara all over her eyes. The solution? Water Proof Mascara! Practically every big name brand has some but I can achieve the same results with the mascaras at the grocery store. In my oppinion, when it comes to mascara, I can never go wrong with Maybelline and Loreal.  Here are my favorite over-the-counter waterproof mascaras....

   If your looking for tips on removing waterproof mascara check out last weeks Beauty Tip on "best makeup removers".  Hope you have a fabulous day!!!

Beauty Tip of the Day

BEAUTY TIP OF THE DAY ...

      This last year has been eventful to say the least. With that said, I haven't been able to put as much energy into my blushbrush-ing :)   So its now my personal goal to do my best to keep this blog updated each day. Here goes...

    Today's beauty tip has to do with makeup remover. I have extremely watery eyes which makes doing my own makeup so frustrating sometimes. I pretty much stick to wearing my "go to" waterproof mascaras to avoid black tears streaming down my cheeks all day.  Maybelline and Loreal have some great affordable water proof mascaras. But while waterproof makeup has its benefits, it is also much harder to get  off at the end of the day. I personally don't like using oil-based makeup removers that can clog your pores so with my own personal experience I have found that the best (affordable) makeup remover to be Neutrogena's oil free makeup remover. I use both the wipes and the bottle shown below. Both work great! You can apply the liquid onto a rag or q-tip and simply wipe your makeup off. The wipes are pretty much self explanatory. I hope this was helpful in some way! Happy Friday!
