Oil-Free & Matte Liquid Foundations
A well-formulated oil-free or matte finish liquid foundation should have a smooth finish with no shine or dewy appearance. Ideally, this appearance should last for at least a few hours, but in the long run, this depends almost entirely on how oily your skin is. Most oil-free and matte liquid foundations provide sheer to medium coverage.

- Types of foundation coverage
- types of foundation finsish
An attractive makeup application must begin with a foundation that blends smoothly and evenly with your skin. Even if you feel that you need a foundation that provides good coverage, obvious coverage is a mistake and can negatively affect your entire makeup. When shopping for foundation be sure it matches your skin exactly, and avoid ever buying a foundation to alter skin color because in daylight or office lighting, it will appear completely unnatural.
Here is all you need to know about the major types of foundations you will find on the market. Which one to use depends on your skin type (oily vs. dry) and personal preferences including how much coverage (medium vs full) you desire, what type of finish you prefer (matte, dewy, satin), and other factors.

I'm going for a darker, more mysterious interpretation that features a beautifully dramatic cherry red lip that any skintone can pull off because it's not too bright and has a lot of depth to it," said makeup artist Tayaba Jafri. Makeup was deep and resplendent with sexy smoky eyes and burgundy lips, while hair took on a youthful vibrance with a side ponytail filled with lustrous shine.
GET THE LOOK

-Starlight Mineral Powder was applied over Wild Bouquet and Sun Bronze on the cheeks for a luminous finish.
-Then using a yet-to-be-launched "Mysterious" collection, peacock greens were blended into a sheer cloud over the lids and crease.

I do not remember exactly how many years ago, i started to use my first Lancome Hypnose Mascara,but i uses it for a long long time than i tossed it with another Lancome Mascara I think it was Fatale than i cheated fatale with another Lancome mascara than i gave up Lancome Mascaras...
High volume lashes in a single stroke.
Lancome Hypnose Drama's unique full contact, S-shaped curved brush works magic. It grasps and loads lashes for a fanned out, eye-popping, full body fringe, it will even works wonders on tiny lashes.
The texturising complex features highly saturated waxes and intense black pigments for maximum lash volume. The triple coating system delivers a fluid and creamy application to quickly and easily build big, battable lashes.
here is a picture of a classic hypnose
I did not yet try or used this new hypnose, but as i see from the pictures i can see that the brish on hypnose drama is curved
we all know that if go a few years back ,brands ever mentioned about eye lash inserts on the ads on virtual and written press, after new laws, they have to mention it,
at least we are not fooled any more, i am not saying this mascara is not working, i did not try it yet,
but i am just saying we all know that there is no make up in the world gives us the perfect lashes, perfect lips,
do not forget this before you buy any product
Is Blogging the new media?

I have seen this article is-blogging-the-new-media few days ago, but i was waiting to calm down a bit,
I am not a professional, I am not a journalist, I am not a girl who works for a make up brand,
I write my own thoughts about the products i use,
I believe it is best to read other peoples thoughts about a product rather than going to a make up artist and ask oh is this good for me ? I may go and ask for an advice on choosing the right colour on foundation but not
Do you advice MAC Foundation, NARS or Bobbi Brown, s/he will tell me the name of the brand that he represents he uses,
I have met a Make Up Artist, he admits that he is a pro, i sometimes see him at my hair dresser, he does bridal make up etc and i ask him what foundation do you reccomend? have u ever tested NARS foundation? he never knows about NARS Foundations and he recommends me MAC and Lancome..
Lancome was a good at Foundations when MAC and Nars etc does not exist,
A professional advice will be sided, which will only help to the make up artist and the company s/he is paid or sponsored.
Everybody is different and each product will give different reactions on different people.
Eg Most people like b branded cosmetics foundation, i may not like bec i could not get the coverage i expected.
If the companies are looking for development on their products, the best is listen and read the real people who are using it, not the make up artists or beauty journalists, which journalist writting on magazines about beauty they are also sponsored bec the companies sends them loads of product to try and test and also bribe them to write good things about the product..
i think beauty bloggers must join into a network like independent fashion bloggers.

"We did eyes in a dusty blue-gray with a little black smudged in, explained makeup artist Tina Turnbow. The rest of the face was kept minimal. "We just used a pretty opalescent lip balm," she said.
GET THE LOOK - MAKEUP
Think of the eye as a rounded sphere or planet. The inner crease of the eye is darkened up to the brow with the shimmery deep blue gray (eyeshadow in lucy I'm home). The outer area is rounded, softly muted blackness. The center of the eye is the lightest, with darker edges (inner and outer corner of eye) ending in black (eye couture palette). Apply blue lagoon only in the center of the top and lower lids. Blend the blue into the gray and then into a bit of the black. There should be a bit of the blue and silver gray (eye couture palette) blended in the center of the lower lashline. Apply smolderEYES in the inner rim of the eyes. Top it off with a coat of lights, camera, lashes! mascara on the top and bottom lashes (no curling needed).
The mineral powder -provocateur pressed mineral powder- matted down skin. the eraser 4-in-1 natural concealer was used after applying shadows to avoid fallout. smooth operator oil-free tinted moisturizer with SPF 20 (one shade lighter than model's complexion) was smoothed on skin. Just a bit of healthy blush on cheeks with Blissful Natural Cheek Stain -a peachy pink-.
Slide Tin Lipbalm in Pucker Up created a pretty opalescent sheer pout.
GET THE LOOK - NAILS
Nails sparkled, in blue, thanks to Deborah Lippmann's Nail Polish in Across the Universe, a new release for fall. "It was one of those match made in heaven situations," she said, when asked about the color. "I was already doing this shade for fall, and, when I met with the design team to go over the clothing, we realized that she had a fabric in her fall collection that exactly matched it. We thought, let's not be serious, let's just have fun!" She filed nails into a short almond shape, and painted on two coats of the blue and green glitter formula, that's set in a sheer navy bas
