Looking Forward to Fall & Smokey Eye Makeup ..

Do you change your makeup for the new season? I do! Fast forward to what's coming.. Lancome's fall palette will be available in August. These shades are perfect for smokey eyes, natural eye makeup and can be used as base colors. This is a must-have that will last you a very long time!

Top Pick for Creamy Pink Lipstick

If you're in the mood for pink lips, one of my other favorite neon pink lipsticks (besides Mac's "Chatterbox") is "Rouge in Love" by Lancome, #343B. While this color boasts 6 hours of long-lasting color, I'd still apply Mac's lipliner, "Shock Value," to pretty it up and keep your color.

Limited Edition Lipstick by Lancome

[Lancome] has brought in L'Absolu Rouge Nu in a limited edition color of sweet marmalade. It is a sheer shade so you will probably have to mix it with a creamy color. Pretty color! It also comes in "rose petal" for those who like their pink.

"Coral Sand" by Lancome

If you like coral hues, "Coral Sand" is new by Lancome in the "replenishing & enhancing" series. Looks luxe to me! Coral suits everyone. See the other new shades at [Lancome.com].

Lancome Launches "Holiday 2011 Color Collection" By Kate Winslet

Lancome has launched the new Kate Winslet "Holiday 2011 Color Collection" which includes base lipstick, rich red nail polish & other hues along with illuminating smooth powder in pink & gold. The glittery gold & red nail polish hues look gorgeous. I heart red nail polish. It matches any outfit, any season. See the collection at [Lancome].

Lancome's Fall Trend Report

Lancome reports that bright eye color is trending and has new bold colors in their "Color Design" eye shadow series. The colors are available in shimmery shades including teal, green, gold, pinks, and purples. Lancome's "Le Stylo Waterproof" eyeliner also comes in bold green and purple hues. See the colors at [lancome-usa.com].

Mascara Tips From The Haus!

New is the "Bottom Lash" mascara from Clinique which is designed to give precision control with a smudge-free formula. The magazine ads say it's only $10. I think I'll try it out.

If you're looking for a good mascara, Lise Watier's "Wow" mascara is a best seller. I've got it and I really like it. I usually mix it with Lancome's Definicils mascara for volume. If you really want volume, use Lancome's white lash primer first. That stuff is out of this world!

I haven't tried Watier's "24 Hour Glam Mascara" but my guy at the makeup counter said it's really good. Has anyone tried it?

When all else fails & you really want to glam your lashes up without looking like a freak.. lol.. try Sephora's Glam falsies. I think I'm going to pick some up. It's a little time consuming when you're first teaching yourself how to apply them, but if you can get them on your lashes just right without a lot of glue, they're a lot of fun. They're only $10 & come with the glue.

New Lancome Products

"Butterflies Fever" is a new blush in for Lancome. The pink & beige hues look really pretty. I'd be interested to see how the purple blends in. Lancome is sure into the purples this year for eyes and nails too. Using pink & dark purple for a smokey look is really pretty. [Lancome].

This lipstick, L'absolu Rouge in Lily & Daisy Rose is new too. I like this shade of "Lily Rose" providing it's creamy and not nude on the lips. It's packed with Vitamin E and SPF 12 to keep lips moisturized for 8 hrs. [Lancome]

Lancome Fashion Show Intense Eye Shadow

Just wanted to share this with you. If you are into dark brown smokey eyeshadow, this color looks really nice with dark brown. It's a bold long-lasting color.

Now is The Time to Stock Up Your Makeup For All Year Round

I was checking out the deals for good products which I've used before & found these at Sears. You will save yourself a ton of cash buying gift packages.

From the top left:
- Lancome mascara gift package is $34 (canadian)
- Lise Watier mascara is $18
- Lise Watier loose powder is $18
- Estee Lauder lipsticks are $45
- Estee Lauder lip glosses are $38.50

Both mascaras are high quality. I wanted to included the Lise Watier loose powders which don't expire and last forever. They work best with the Metamorfix liquid for long-lasting results which is about $12.

Nicole Scherzinger's Natural Makeup

Love Nicole's natural looking makeup, with glowing skin.

If U go back on my posts, I have makeup tips on how U can get smokey eye makeup, just like Nicole's eye makeup, that's long-lasting, using Smashbox and Lancome makeup.

Always, the pony and long earrings make for a sophisticated look.

Pink'n'Plum To Brighten Your Fall Makeup Colors

Use Lancome's "Plum Freeze" Juicy Tube over your favorite pink Pupa lipstick.

For eyes, use loose powder by Lise Watier, 70939 "Folie D'amour" hue with 70938 "Violette".

Then use cream eyeliner in "Midnight Purple" by Smashbox to set in the dark purple & you're on your way.

Moisturize Your Lips 'n Keep it Trendy For Winter

Apply MAC's matte "Vegas Volt" lipstick, then gloss lips with Lancome's "Sun Bronze" Juicy Tube for a toasty warm hue. When the gloss wears off, you will still have color from the lipstick. Looks great with peachy rose blush & dark brown smokey eyeshadow.

Makeup Tips - How to Get Kim Kardashian's Soft Eye Shadow Look

As you probably know I'm a huge fan of KK, her makeup & her fashion.  I posted a link to tips from her makeup artist.  Rather than run out & buy a bunch more makeup, I tried mixing my stuff up to get a light beige with pink overtone.

To do this I first use Lancome's Latte matte eyeshadow as a base.  Then I add Lise Watier's light beige loose eyeshadow powder no 70948 & then 70937 over it.  When U use L.W. loose powders, U must use a dab of Metamorfix with it to hold it.  Then over this, I used Lancome's Burnt Sand.  That tones down the glitter that's in LW's pink and evens it all out.

Then use black or grey smashbox creme eyeliners with a mac eyeliner brush & you're set.

Seems like a lot of work, it's not.  I was really impressed with it & wanted to share.

Beauty Julia Roberts

I love that Julia Roberts is working with Lancome, she looks beautiful.

Lancome's Mascaras Work Like Magic

New Mascara Definicils Precious Cells mascara - mascaras that work magic.  They're about $30 but well worth the dollars if U are lacking eyelashes.  The other alternative is falsies.
