Wig Out

I have never bought a wig in my life. So I took my hubby cousin to the hair supply store. She loves them and I wasn't thinking of getting anything. So she told me lets try some on and I did. I try on a short one but I already have short hair. So I saw a long one and said, What the heck. Lets see how this looks. Once I put it on It make me look like a different person. I fell in love with it. Since I haven't had long hair since I was in high school. It was a dark brown color. I'm going to show you how I look without and with it. Let me know how you think I look? Now I'm in love with them its fun to play with them and change your appearance.

This is how I Look with my natural hair.

Makeup for Rosacea

While medical therapy can address the underlying physical aspects of rosacea, makeup can help instantly improve the look of your skin and boost your self-confidence about your appearance. Here are some tips to help you look and feel your best.

• Get a clean start. Before applying makeup, cleanse and moisturize your face with skin-care products appropriate for your skin. Always treat skin gently, never rubbing or pulling with your fingers, makeup sponges or even a washcloth or towel, as this may cause irritation. And use the right tools to minimize irritation — anti-bacterial brushes may be best, since even the oil and bacteria on your fingers can irritate skin.

Effective use of cosmetics can reduce the 
appearance of symptoms.

• Keep it simple. The more ingredients and products you apply to your skin, the higher the likelihood that an ingredient or product may aggravate it. That's why it may be helpful to use multi-function products, such as a green-tinted base that also contains sunscreen. Always test a new product in a peripheral area — your neck, your arm — before using it on your face to make sure your skin doesn't react to it. Avoid any products that burn, sting or irritate your skin.
• Use a green-tinted base. A sheer green-tinted primer is a good choice for a makeup base — it can help visually correct redness and even out skin tone. Get one with UVA/UVB protection and you'll help shield skin from exposure that can aggravate rosacea. A protective base has another bonus, too: it helps your makeup last longer.
• Choose oil-free foundation and concealer. Look for an oil-free foundation that offers the level of coverage you need, from sheer to full. And for both foundation and concealer, choose your shade carefully. Foundation should match your natural skin tone as closely as possible, while concealer should be just one shade lighter than your natural skin tone.

Use of a brush, rather than a sponge,
can minimize irritation.

• How to apply foundation. Use a light touch when applying foundation. You may want to use an antibacterial foundation brush to apply it rather than a sponge (too harsh for skin) or your fingertips (can add unnecessary oil to the face). For brush application, start by applying a small amount of liquid foundation to the back of your hand. Dab with the brush and smooth over your face, starting in the center and blending outward. For cream or powder foundation, sweep the brush across the surface of the compact and apply to your face. Use broad strokes for large areas of the face: cheeks, forehead and chin. Use the edge of the brush to reach narrow areas: nose, mouth, eyes and hairline. Blend well. Be sure to clean the brush between uses.
• How to apply concealer. Use an antibacterial concealer brush to lightly dot concealer under your eyes, starting at the inner corner and working outward. Blend well for a seamless look. You can hide bumps or visible blood vessels by dabbing and blending concealer directly onto each area, then using foundation all over to create a more even tone.
• Consider cover-corrective makeup. Especially for those with moderate to severe rosacea, cover-corrective cosmetics may be an appropriate option. Available in a choice of formulations with UVA and UVB sun protection and a wide array of tones to match your natural skin color, they can thoroughly conceal many types of skin imperfections to create a flawless look.
• Explore the benefits of mineral powder. Mineral makeup is often a good choice for skin with rosacea, as it typically doesn't contain potentially irritating ingredients. There are also innovative mineral powder formulas specifically formulated to color-correct redness. Dust a yellow-toned mineral powder over foundation, or use it over your protective base instead of foundation to help further tone down the look of redness.
• To blush or not to blush. Mineral powder blushers are also available, but since skin already tends to have a lot of color, go easy on cheek color if you use it at all. Choose sheer blush formulated for sensitive skin and apply sparingly with an antibacterial brush, sweeping it from the apples of the cheeks toward the temples.
• Opt for extra-gentle eye makeup. Eyes are sensitive to begin with, and if yours have signs and symptoms of ocular rosacea, it's especially important to treat the eye-area skin gently. Select products designed for sensitive eyes that have been ophthalmologist tested — and allergy- tested, fragrance-free formulas may be ideal. Mascara and eyeliner should be easy to apply and remove without pulling or tugging on the eyes. Look for mascara formulas that can be gently removed by simply rinsing with warm water. Mineral powder eye shadow may be the perfect choice for eyes susceptible to rosacea symptoms. Neutral colors, both in shadow and eye pencils, may also be less irritating than strong jewel tones since they have less pigment.
• Go for neutral lips. Lips will shine in neutral shades close to your natural lip color. Avoid red shades that may exacerbate the look of redness in your skin

My look for Wednesday

I love the holidays.. And today I was feeling joyful and wanted to walk out of my house looking hot and fierce!
I wont write much because this blog will be more about the photos!

                                         I'm so happy to be able to share photos with my fans!

Inspire With Art!

I have come along way since I started with my makeup artistry and I take great passion in what I do. I love fashion. I was born this way ' like Lady Gaga sings". I love to be different. With a twist that I could show the different styles. I can call my own! Since I were little girl I always wanted to stand out but having an impact where ever I went. I know I was born to be someone and to help and change peoples life's. I get inspire by others objects, shapes, and life.

My make up for Thanksgiving using Fi.R Cosmetics

I want to show you guys how I did my make up for Thanksgiving.

 I will be explaining how I did my face. First I always start with a nice clean face and make sure I have moisturizer on my face

Then I always make sure I wear my Aveeno SPF of 30 off over my face. I love that brand because it’s light weight. I know some SPF feel sticky and white all over you face and you have to blend a lot to make it disappear. It's a must buy!

The next step I use my Maybelline concealer 24. In the shade of medium beige.

What I like about this product is that it covers all day long. When apply it dries quick so you have you fast with it. I did a post about this products a couple of weeks check it out it called http://fifisbeautyartistry.blogspot.com/2011/11/drug-store-products.html

Then I would go to do my eyes first before I do my whole make up. That's a personal preference!

Then I do using eye insurance from 

Too faced. I love it!!

For my eye colors I used Fi.R Cosmetics.

In the inner tear docks I used Peep, then half of the eye I used pumpkin, and the end I used brown, Coffee to crease. The eye colors I used them dry. For my waterline and under eye liner I used Rock Teal. I used it wet.

For the lips I used some M.A.C lip glass and I added some Champagne and some milani clear gloss. 

But in between before I put on my lip color. I always use DCT daily conditioning treatment. Just to prevent feathering. When I apply my lip color. I just like my lips to feel nice and moist not chapping at all. 

The next step I apply Rimmel London Fix & Perfect. Foundation primer. I love this primer because has 

A nice fragrance to it. It feels great on the skin as well. It smoothes the skin and minimizes pores. This is a plus. 

For the foundation I use Maybelline Pure Makeup in the color medium honey beige. What I like about

This foundation  has a shine-free with H20-oil free. It's discontinue but I find it in Biglots a lot. When 

I see them I get the whole rack. 

To shape my eyes brows I use M.A.C eyebrow pencil called Spiked. 

For maraca I use One by One Volum' Express by Maybelline

It applies smoothly, makes my lashes look super long with a single coat, and it doesn't clump like other mascaras I've tried

For blush I used this orange color I purchase at Hot Topic and I love it.

 

Here is my look hope that helps you. 

Hopefully you could create this look!!

This just took 10 mins to do it.

For everyday make up you could take form 5-10 mins top. 

For events and special occasions then you would go ahead to do more!

 I also went natural with my hair because I wanted to go with something different!!
