New Maybelline Fit Me Makeup

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

maybelline makeupMaybelline New York Cosmetics has revealed plans to give you a more natural look with their new line of face makeup.

The new Fit Me line of makeup products from Maybelline will be a fool proof system to help you get the right shade for your skin tone. The Fit Me line will include foundation, powder, concealer, blush and bronzer all number coded so you know which colour will work best with your skin tone. This isn’t exactly a brand new idea for makeup. True Match also has a number system for their foundations, concealers and powders.

The difference is that Maybelline has created 18 different shades. That is more colour options than every other makeup line we can think of. This could get your even closer to your true skin colour than usual. We also love that Maybelline has included blush and bronzer because have all struggled to find a shade that isn’t too bright.

While there is no word on when the line will be in stores, prices will range from $5.51 to $7.99 for the makeup line.

The Best Tips for Summer Wedding Makeup

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

by Bethany North, guest blogger

applyingmakeup1Most women will be getting married in the summer season, so it is important to match your makeup style accordingly. Of course, you want to look like a beautiful blushing bride on your wedding day, yet you must also choose a type of makeup and flattering colors that will make you look your very best!

Foundation: You absolutely must wear mineral makeup foundation with a primer in the summer season. This is a lightweight yet full coverage foundation that will look natural if you happen to sweat or glisten in the heat. This type of foundation will help you avoid running and smudging as opposed to liquid foundation.

Bronzer: Less is definitely more, and you can touch up your complexion with a glowing bronzer to make you look sun-kissed. If you have any reservations about using a bronzer, try a tinted moisturizer instead.

Eye Makeup: Use light and natural colors with a soft eyeliner and eyeshadow primer so that your makeup doesn’t run. Waterproof mascara is always a must!

Lips: Your lips may say it all on your wedding day, so make sure that they are exfoliated well. Choose a nude or rosy lip color that best matches your skin type, and apply a matching lip liner, the lip color with a lip brush, and top with clear gloss in the center of your bottom lip. This is the best method to maximize your lips and draw attention to your beautiful pucker when you kiss your husband-to-be!

ksn1.jpgIn our ongoing quest to provide you with info on Canada’s best beauty brands, we bring you a post on Mistura Beauty.  Mistura Beauty is a celebrity favourite (Karina Smirnoff and AnnaLynne McCord are just a few of the fans) and one of Canada’s most unique and high profile beauty brands.  I admit I didn’t initially know much about Mistura Beauty, but having now read up on the brand and quizzed a few people here who have tried it, I can say that they do offer a great solution for that busy woman on the go.  A woman who wants a flawless face, but doesn’t want the hassle (and high costs) associated with using multiple products and brands.

Mistura has made it easy to buy just one product and have it do everything for you.  You don’t need to buy concealer, foundation, bronzer, etc.  The absolute gem in the Mistura Beauty line is the Mistura  6-in-1 Beauty Solution Kit.  This powder provides a glowing, natural finish to all skin types and colours.  The powder will also hide blemishes, mute rosacea, glide over fine lines and wrinkles and bring an instant brilliance to pale skin tones.  

Mistura other products include The Ultimate 6-in-1 Beauty Solution Kit , the 6-in-1 Solution Compact,  Luminada Moisturizer, Vitamin E Lip Treatment and Luxury Applicator Brush.  To get more info on this great Canadian brand, visit the Mistura Beauty site www.misturabeauty.com.
