Makeup så vel som TV: Det jeg ser på

Jeg må komme ren: Jeg er avhengig av å følge med Kardashians. Det er et reality -TV -show på E! om Kim Kardashian så vel som familien. Det er klart at man ikke ser på showet for intellektuelle stimuli; Jeg ser delvis siden det er terapeutisk tankeledende så vel som delvis siden jeg beundrer sminken. Kim, Kourtney så vel som Khloe (de tre eldre Kardashian -søstrene) har på seg noe av den peneste sminke på reality -TV – seriøst – så vel som de eier det mørke smokey eye Dark Smoke Eye samt naken leppe.

I går kveld leste jeg nettstedet til showet da jeg fant dette morsomme fotoverktøyet. Sjekk det ut. Her chillaxing med jentene i klubben!

Lol … ja, de er ikke så brystene mine.

Viser noen andre noen form for bestemte TV -serier for å beundre sminken? Jeg vet at jeg ikke kan være den eneste.

Hei, stor pappa

Luststørene er løse øyeskygge som er nytte som tilsvarer Mac-pigmenter. stor pappa ($ 18) er en glimrende peachy bronse; Jeg liker det for et raskt klesvask på lokkene.

Det er en glede å kysse disse dristige brights: Dolce & Gabbana Passion Duos Summer Pleasures Collection

Hvis du noen gang vil finne deg selv under Doktors ordre for å avstå fra å ha på seg øye sminke “for en dag eller to” mens allergiene dine avtar, og Du er en slags skjønnhet nerd, du kan også finne deg selv debatterende om fylling av brynene dine er “øye sminke”.

Jeg kom til den konklusjonen at det ikke gjør det …

ANNONSE

JEG VET! Men jeg kunne ikke motstå å gjøre minst litt noe.

Mine øyne synes ikke i tankene, og de nyter sikkert å stirre på tre av de lyse, skinnende leppestiftene fra den nye Dolce & Gabbana Summer Pleasures Collection.

Disse $ 34 skjønnhetene, tre av 10 nye Passion Duo Gloss Fusion Lipsticks, er tilgjengelige nå på Saks butikker og Saksfifthavenue.com (det er også fem neglelakk i samlingen priset til $ 20 hver).

De 10 nye nyanser varierer fra sommer, myke nudder til dristige, glamorøse brights.

Med urviseren fra den mørke nyansen i nedre venstre: Royal 110, eksotisk 50 og tropisk 140

Dolce & Gabbana’s Gloss Fusion Lipsticks er blant mine favorittprodukter i hele linjen. Hver har en skinnende, fuktfylt kjerne av glans innpakket i et rikt lag pigmentert leppestift.

Jeg husker da de først gjorde et sprut på Dolce & Gabbana tellere … Oh, de intense farger, høyglanset finish, tekstur så glatt det ville gi Ryan Gosling en løp for pengene sine.

Når det gjelder de tre nye fargene jeg har sovende i morges? Akkurat som fab.

Royal 110.

Tropisk 140.

Eksotisk 50.

Twatches fra venstre: Royal 110, Tropical 140 og eksotisk 50

Flørtende og morsomt eksotisk 50 er min favoritt av disse. Jeg mener, hvordan sier jeg nei til en varm rosa leppestift? Det kan være noe jeg fysisk er ute av stand til å gjøre …

Levende oransje tropisk 140 kjører et nært sekund. Jeg kan se det gå bra med tropiske print maxi-kjoler, vakre badebyer og yummy paraply drinker.

Som lidenskapsduos i den permanente linjen, har disse også en lett rose smak og duft, og en super fuktighetsgivende, ikke-klebrig formel. Så mye moro – spesielt hvis du vil spille opp leppene dine.

Du er nesten der!

Denne uken har vært litt utfordrende så langt, og jeg tror at selv faner ikke kan vente på helgen.

Opp i luften

gikk jeg for en kort tur i dag i Marinhøyden. Dette er utsikten over Stillehavet fra stien som fører opp til Hawk Hill. Legg merke til vandrere i bakgrunnen som utgir seg for å ignorere den galne jump-jenta foran dem, haha.

MAC makeup Tips: MAC Does makeup for Music, too

You probably already knew that MAC provides makeup and makeup artists for fashion shows all over the world, but did you know that MAC does makeup for music tours, too? If you have tickets to rapper Kanye West’s glow in the Dark North American tour (April-June, 2008), expect to see MAC in action. The MAC team is creating the looks for several of the dancers, backup singers and accompanying musicians on the tour.

And glow in the Dark isn’t the first MAC/Kanye partnership. They’ve been at it for years, with MAC working on a number of Kanye’s tours, special performances and videos.

ANNONSE

To find out more about how MAC works with performers on large concerts and events, I talked to MAC senior makeup artist Jennifer Karsten. Jennifer worked on Kanye’s Touch the sky tour, his 2007 MTV music video awards appearance and the Flashing Lights video.

Jennifer did the makeup for the girl in this video. Yo, shuttle the kids into the other room before you watch this because the end is kinda graphic.

Unlike the full-time singers, dancers and musicians who travel with an artist on tour, MAC artists are usually assigned at each stop along the way. how do all these different makeup artists in different cities maintain a consistent makeup look throughout a lengthy tour? “We all communicate through the senior artists and global communications,” Jennifer says, “so everyone knows what the look is and to keep the continuity going.”

MAC artists working on high-profile music events face challenges that makeup artists working fashion shows don’t typically face. large concerts are complex productions. “When you’re dealing with someone more high profile,” says Jennifer, “you have a lot more channels to go through.” It can be more difficult or challenging to really get the look correct because you’re filtering an idea through someone else.

For one of his performances at the 2007 MTV music video awards, Kanye wanted a futuristic, glamorous, high fashion makeup look. The MAC team envisioned a glossy, futuristic cat eye (ooh, me likey!). MAC artists created a “test look” on one of the orchestra performers. It then took six hours, several calls, and pictures taken with cell phones to get the test look approved. That left the team with only 20 minutes to replicate the look on the rest of the orchestra.

And, ultimately, fashion show makeup isn’t meant to overshadow the clothing. That’s not always the case in a concert, where the makeup typically defines the look.

MAC makeup tips – concert Makeup

Use matte eyeshadows to add texture and give depth to the eyes.When working with performers on stage, MAC artists need to think about lighting and the audience. The artists typically work with matte or non-reflective tones on the eyes to create depth, layering them with reflective eyeshadows (like shimmer or glitter shades). An excess of shimmery shades tend to look flat, says Jennifer. “Make sure you add some mattes in with some of your shine, so you get a good play of the textures on each other.”

Warm colors look terrific on TV! “We have a tendency to use really warm colors because it looks terrific on television,” says Jennifer. “It looks terrific on video, so many times there’s always going to be a little something kind of brownish, or orange-ish in the creases of the eyes and on the cheeks because it creates that natural look.”

For a long-wearing foundation that won’t melt under hot stage lights, choose a silicone-based foundation.MAC foundations contain silicone. “They’re water resistant,” says Jennifer, and “resist perspiration and moisture.” She recommends MAC Mineralize Satinfinish liquid and MAC Hyper real Foundations.

Doing a smokey eye? try MAC Technakohl on the waterline.“Technakohl eyeliner works terrific on the waterline to do that really smoky eye. They’re also smudge resistant and water resistant, so they stay really well.”

Layer your mascara. For lashes able to last through a long, hot performance, add a layer of waterproof mascara. try MAC Splashproof mascara on top of pro Lash or plush Lash.

Hey, ladies! how was your Tuesday? Today I caught up on some reading (dang, those writers from The new Yorker got *game*) and sniffling. Everything’s blooming right now, and I’m sneezing like crazy! *achoo*

Did you catch The Hills last night? What’s your take on the LC-Stephen reunion? Here’s mine: Zzzzzzz…

Søndag med faner katten, sminke og sjarm blogg mascot, vol. 220

Tidligere i ettermiddag tilbrakte jeg litt tid på kjøkkenet prepping noen måltider for denne uken. Jeg gjorde ganske mye racket, mellom pannene som klang på komfyren, hugget veggies på skjærebrettet, kjørte matprosessoren og åpnet og lukker kjøleskapet, og jeg antar at faner burde ha stilt inn en stund, Fordi jeg på et tidspunkt stoppet det jeg gjorde og innså at jeg ikke hadde sett ham om et par timer, så jeg gikk inn i stuen for et sekund og så rundt …

Tabs satt på dette mørke Wood Home Entertainment Center Thingy vi bruker som et bord for våre bilnøkler og posten, og jeg antar at han ikke la meg merke meg, gå inn fordi han ikke stoppet hva han gjorde. Han ble hunched over en rotete haug med magasiner og konvolutter og presset dem en etter en på gulvet.

ANNONSE

“Uh …” Jeg sa fra døråpningen, og brøt konsentrasjonen. Skiftet, så han på meg for et raskt sekund før han hoppet ned og slinking bort. “Hva skjer her?”

Det er så morsomt hvordan faner vil se skyldig på visse ting, som å klatre opp på bordet, selv om jeg aldri har skjedd ham om det. Hvordan visste han selv at det var noe å føle seg skyldig i, og da jeg gikk inn på ham, hvorfor så han ikke bare på meg, “Hva skjer, kvinne? Du har sett leketøyet mitt? ”

Kanskje faner var bare der oppe og søkte etter sin kitty modelleringsportefølje. Han la til nye bilder til det i dag fra hans nyeste modelleringsjobber …

Hvem er faner katten? For omtrent fem år siden skjønte jeg en bortfall, loppebitt i tabby katt med et dårlig tilfelle av ormer. Jeg kunne se at han ble falt på vanskelige tider, men hans dype kunnskap om høymote og varehus kosmetikk førte meg til å tro at han var mye mer enn å møte øyet. Vi ble raske venner, og nå er han faktisk sjefen min (og en vellykket kattunge).

P.S. Jeg sitter best nå for å se Walking Dead! Så spent! Jeg skulle ønske det var ikke allerede Midseason Finale.

P.P.S. En av disse dagene burde jeg gå gjennom sminke- og sjarmbloggarkivene og sette alle de modelleringspilene som noen gang har gjort for søndager med faner i et enkelt innlegg (miniatyrbildene nedenfor, representerer ikke alle dem).

Jeg er fristet til å gjøre det, men det må være minst 200 bilder. Jeg vet ikke … det kan være nok til å krasje serveren!

Sminke samt sjarm blogg mandag avstemning, vol. 241

comply with your dreams (says the breaded feline on the side of this box of mints)

Du lurer kanskje på, “Så hva er det i mandag, men ikke noe?”

Vel, det er ikke mye av en meningsmåling. Det er mye mer bare en kontinuerlig utvikling (devolving?), Noe tilfeldig notering av bekymringer jeg har satt ut til besøkende hver mandag morgen de siste fire årene. Jeg har alltid glad i å lese svarene dine i kommentarene, så vel som jeg håper du gleder deg til å lese min.

Humør:
Ya know, I’m really doing quite good. I made a bit development on the house front over the weekend (more on that in a sec), to ensure that gets a huge sigh of relief, ahhhh.

How numerous sequins is as well many? would you wear ’em from head to toe?
You bet I would! Let’s do this mo’ fo’! As far as I’m concerned, the much more sequins, the better. presuming I’m likewise using a fierce pair of shoes, since the footwear should be deserving of the outfit; otherwise, I see no point in stated bedazzlement.

Are there any type of stories or details you desire you understood about your parents or guardians?
I desire I understood the genuine story of exactly how my parents met. each time I’ve ever asked my mom, she’s provided me some vague response about exactly how they satisfied in college…

Og? as well as what, Mom? exactly how did you meet? Hvor møttes dere? What was your very first date like?

Of course, because I can never get a directly response out of her, my overactive creativity concocts something soapy as well as scandalous.

Hmm… On second thought, perhaps I don’t want to know, LOL!

What are your many as well as least preferred Halloween sweets?
If I could, I’d fill my plastic pumpkin with small Snickers, pink Mentos (just the pink ones), popcorn-flavored Jelly tummy beans, peanut M&M’s (with Tabs’ photo printed on them, of course), Sour patch youngsters as well as Twix.

And I’d leave out the Smarties (blech!), Swedish Fish, licorice as well as Tootsie Rolls. say thanks to you!

Who’s the last person talked with on the phone?
Mi madre! She’s trying to get me to go red wine tasting with her, of all things…

ANNONSE

If you might be on the cover of any type of magazine, which magazine would it be?
Um…Cat Fancy? Please don’t judge, LOL!

Unicorn or pegasus?
Ooh! — that’s a toughie. With the pegasus, you get totally free air travel, however I bet there’s a great deal of upkeep included taking care of the wings.

Plus, where do you park a pegasus? It’s not like they have special pegasus car parking at Trader Joe’s, as well as do you have to land as well as take off from an airport?

I assumption I’d most likely choose the unicorn… They are able to teleport when a day, as well as that’s quite handy.

What’s the shortest/longest you’ve ever had your hair?
The shortest was an terrible cropped cut back in the sixth grade (not my idea, btw! When I grew boobs, my parents all of a sudden chose I needed a young boy haircut).

The longest I’ve ever had it was in high school, as well as it hung all the method down to my bum.

What do you do to unwind after a stressful day?
I like to take a long, hot shower, make myself a cup of tea, as well as if I’m hungry, have a yummy meal with veggies as well as fresh bread or pasta. Then, a film on Netflix, a great book, and/or an at-home mani/pedi.

Ukentlige mål:
En ting om gangen. That’s my only goal, truly — that I focus on one thing at a time. If I can do that, then I understand I can get with my the most essential things on my long to-do list.

Hey, wonderful friend. exactly how YOU doing?! Did you have a great weekend?

Mine was quite good.. Actually, truly good. I got in some hard-core unwinding (I understand that seems funny…), as well as like I discussed a minute ago, made some development on a house project, implying that I really got out as well as looked at dining space tables.

I believe I’m this close to lastly pulling the set off on a honey-colored mango wood one from Crate as well as Barrel. It’s just a fundamental rectangular table. No flourish at all, which is what I want.

I likewise stopped by house Depot to get some paint swatches since I’m believing about painting the dining room. It’s kind of an eggshell white best now, as are all the walls, however I’m believing about different shades of light blue.

If you occur to have a great eye for interior design, I have a concern for you. Does the size of the space have any type of bearing on the size of table you ought to get? exactly how much area ought to you leave around the table, between the table as well as the walls?

I can’t figure out if I ought to get a smaller or a larger table. I’m drawn to a larger one since I might utilize it as a work area for projects, however it would take up many of the room…

Hmm… While I continue considering this concern of profound worLDWide Betydning (ikke), har du et minutt å fylle ut denne ukens mandagsundersøkelse? Jeg håper det. Jeg vil gjerne høre fra deg.
