Do you have oily skin and are looking for ways to control shine? I have tried two products that are excellent at controlling oily skin. Its nothing like applying beautiful makeup and in a few hours when you look in the mirror there is shine, I hate that. A key to staying matte for oily skin is a fresh clean face that is moisturized with and oil free mositurizer and then after the moisturizer has set on the skin a few minutes apply and oil control lotion or oil mattifier or even both. I have been using MAC's oil control lotion as a moisturizer then applying my makeup, and somedays I like to switch it up and use an oil free moisturizer then apply Mary Kay's oil mattifier. Both products are great and if you have oily skin give them a try for a matte look. Also dont forget to set your makeup with a setting spray, powder, or blotting powder.

Lip Butters, Lip Butters, Lip Butters
OMG! I just love the Revlon Lip butters they are fantastic and so moisturizing for your lips. When they first came out I was dying to get my hands on a few, I ended up buying 6 of them and Im so glad I did. They give you moisture, color, and shine all in one. Also if your someone who wants to experiment with a fuschia or red lip try lollipop and redvelvet you will love them. They are also great over your favorite lipstick for shine or over a lipliner.

2012 Spring Beauty Trends
Spring is here!
Spring beauty trends for 2012 are all about natural glowing skin, winged eyeliner, and a bright fuschia, peach, red, purple and natural lips. Some great ways to achieve a natural but trendy look this spring is to use moisturizer its a must and tinted moisturizers give you a natural but light foundation feel. To seal the tinted moisturizer use a blotting powder/setting powder or foundation powder. To achieve a pretty wing liner look use a gel liner with a brush or even a liquid eyeliner. For a pretty bright spring lip moisturize you lips first and then apply your vibrant shade. Take a look at some of the products I use to achieve this natural spring & bright lip trend.
