Loved the minimal makeup look MUA James Kaliardos for Maybelline did for

NYFW: Hourglass Cosmetics- Christian Siriano Spring 2014

I loved the makeup look created by MUA artist Polly Osmond for Hourglass for 

Christian Siriano's spring 2014 collection. 

The theme was vived hues seen by Siriano from hisrecent trip to Isla Mujeres on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. “I wanted the collection to be light, feminine and romantic,” says Siriano. “Like the girl left the beach but she had a cocktail party to go to, and threw on a dress, a bright lip, and little highlighter.”

CHEEKS
To create a multi-dimensional glow, apply all three shades from Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette (NEW) to the cheeks using a circular motion. Dab Hourglass No. 28 Primer Serum onto the apples of the cheeks for a hint of tropical sheen.

EYES
Apply the Incandescent shade from Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette (NEW) all over the lids. Follow with the shimmering Shell shade from Hourglass Vol. 6 Eye Shadow Palette, applied to the inner corner of eyes. Use the same shade to create a diffused liner along the top and bottom of the lash lines. Finish with a coat of Hourglass Film Noir Full Spectrum Mascara.

BROWS
Brush a small amount of Hourglass No. 28 Primer Serum onto brows to create definition and a little shine.

LIPS
Prep lips earlier with Hourglass No. 28 Lip Treatment Oil for superior hydration. Apply Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick in Muse, an orange coral shade, to the lips. Create a diffused pout by softening the outline of the lips with a lip brush.

TIFF: L'Oréal Paris Collection Privée by Colour Riche

Do you smell it? The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is in the air.

Right now Toronto is full of celebrities, movies and great parties!

This TIFF L'Oréal Paris has launched their Collection Privée by Colour Riche.

This collection features four nail polishes ($3.99) with corresponding lipsticks ($10.99). 

Each set is inspired by lovely ladies such as Jennifer Lopez, Doutzen Kroes, Freida Pinto and Eva Longoria.

I will admit these colours are not the ideal nudes for my skin tone (that I am comfortable wearing).

 They would definitely suit someone who is light to medium tone in my opinion.

Now these are something I can get into! 

Great formula and consistency. The perfect neutral palette of Fall tones.
Freida is my favourite!
