THE ULTIMATE EYELASHES!



Oyinkan

Tola
AQUASCUTUM MODEL


My love for eyelashes continues and recently i saw this model on an AQUASCUTUM LONDON advert. I absolutely loved her eye makeup and looking closely i saw it was all about the lashes. the way it spiked and fanned out without looking too artificial, merging with her natural lash line. 

So my quest began... i searched high and low and did i find what i was looking for? YUP!!! i did... 
Eyelashes wefted on thread! Mink hair too (Natural hairs) so it doesnt prick and irritate. My excitement knows no bounds at the moment and i will glue away at all eyes, once ive been given the pass!!! Immediately i returned from my travels, i used it on Oyinkan... and Tola. 


These Lashes have thus been distributed within my team of makeup artists and i promise you wont even feel a thing (or have a wiper effect ) once they are on... and the best part is that Mascara can be applied as well or you can skip it.

SIMPLE COSMETICS THAT TRANSFORM YOU INSTANTLY!




Mineral Face Powder
Mineral face powders are chemical and fragrance-free. 
They provide a long-lasting coverage and don’t clog the pores because they allow your skin to breathe. 
(This is why most women prefer mineral make up).
The mineral powder can be worn alone or over the foundation.
Face powders must always be applied with a brush, puff or makeup sponge after the foundation and before applying eye makeup.Use brush to apply loose powder and a puff to apply your pressed powder.

MAKEUP FOR SPECIAL EVENTS


Tiwa Savage
Going for a red carpet event means you have to look glamourous,stylish,attractive,and even magical!
Select your shadow tones depending on the time of day of the big event. If it's an evening affair, make over your eyes with sexy, smoky colors. If it's for a daytime event, colors should be soft and natural. Begin by applying a light layer of shadow primer to your eyelids to ensure that your look lasts for the entire event.

GREAT MAKEUP STYLES


MAKEUP FOR NIGHTLIFE/PARTIES

We all want to look exceptionally good when going out or going to parties right? To help in achieving this,choose the most flattering shades and tools for a gorgeous look. Think big when it comes to emphasizing your best assets! Color has a great impact over a person's look, so try to be more adventurous with your makeup. Applying the eye makeup according to your eye shape and eye color is a must if you want to obtain a flattering effect which will make your eyes pop. To get a more professional look try to mix and match various colors, blending them together for a flawless and barely gradual transition. Don't be afraid of colors and have fun with makeup (But not too much fun). Get used to thin intensity of the makeup according to the occasion you want to go for as well as the time, so you can look appropriate at all times!

Makeup is just the finishing touch to the beauty you already possess, so don’t fear or avoid it.
MAKEUP FOR EVERYDAY LIFE
Wearing make up everyday is not compulsory,it's a choice. The main aim is to enhance the way you look everyday. So if you choose to put on make up every day,make sure it's not heavy,it should be subtle.For us women, the right approach to wearing makeup to work could mean success. Now don’t get me wrong; i'm not suggesting a one inch layer of foundation caked on your face, i mean subtle yet classy makeup coupled with the way you carry yourself can potentially speak volumes about your personality, ambition and your disposition.

THE MAKE UP BRUSHES YOU REALLY NEED.



                                Blush/Bronzer Brush
This brush is a soft, medium-sized dome-shaped natural brush. A blush brush that is really soft and has long bristles, so it doesn't disturb the foundation already applied or irritate your skin.
To use, use the brush to sweep blush and bronzer upwards onto the cheekbones (from the apple of the cheek up towards your ears).

                                                                   Powder Brush
This is a must-have brush for dusting powder on the face. It helps to save your powder because you will use less product than with a puff and it gives a more even and natural-looking finish.
To use,dip your brush in your powder and tap off the excess,by using a sweeping motion, brush lightly over your skin following the natural contours of your face.

Foundation Brush
This is a round, fluffy and flat-tipped synthetic brush. This type of brush is best for blending and buffing foundation on to your skin. The shape is perfect for a smooth application and will really work to cover pores for a flawless finish.  Start from your cheeks and blend back towards your hairline.

THE MAKE UP BRUSHES YOU REALLY NEED !!!


A flawless makeup application starts with the right tools and these brushes help in achieving just that look you've been aiming for! When choosing your makeup brushes, it's important know the material the brushes are made of. A make up brush should feel good on your face,you don't want to use a brush that will end up giving you scars. Natural brushes are better for dry products like your blush and eyeshadows while synthetic brushes are best suited for cream or liquid products like concealer or foundation because they soak up less product than natural brushes do.Makeup brushes maybe kind of expensive but are a worthwhile investment that can last a long time, so it's best you choose comfortable brushes.

Red lipstick.
Red is a strong color so using a red lipstick is like a beauty statement. When you use a red lipstick,you get noticed. Just by applying it alone can make you look glamourous and sexy.The most important thing when applying a red lipstick is to keep the rest of your make up subtle, with a neutral blush and a light eye shadow. Red lipstick has enough attitude of its own. A must have for every lady!

Blush
When using a powder blush, always apply it in one direction. Blending in circles can cause a streaky look. I'm quite sure many of us have been a bit heavy handed with our blush! Applying our powder over it will calm it down.Remember,blush has a tendency to darken with body heat; so make sure you apply it sparingly.

Eyeliner
Most ladies don't really know how to handle an eyeliner because its the one you apply on your eyelids and sometimes waterline,which are very delicate and sensitive,that is why a number of women end up applying eyeliners in an untidy way,it's easier using a felt tip eyeliner because it's has a pencil mouth which makes it easier to use. Or better still a black eyeshadow can also do the trick!
