LM’s Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

Mother’s Day is a few days away, and you need to have the best gift for your  Mommy! Please don;t go to the gas station and buy her candy and dried up flowers, and don’t go to the people on the side of the road and buy her  those Orchids that only live for 3 days. Give  her something that’s memorable and  something that she can really enjoy and say ” My baby did good this year”

 

A gift that I think is really great is Tableware. Most mom’s love to cook so how about a new set of Dishes or pots and pans. Mother’s love these types of gits.

 

Makeup of course, is a GREAT gift, you can’t go wrong with this unless your mom isn’t into makeup, but hopefully she will after your gift. Snatch up a gift card for  Mom form  Lipstick Mixtapes,  Sephora or Ulta these are the  best places for gifts. Your mom  can get whatever she wants, haircare, makeup, heating tools,  or perfume. This gift she will LOVE!

 

If your mom is a Techie how about a new phone, or a  new tablet, this gift  keeps her connected.  Moms aren’t as ancient as they used to be, some are more savvy than their kids. Surprise  her a tech gift that she  can store and save all the awesome pics you send her and check her emails if she’s on the go. Mom  will  look way cool and up to date.

Monday Makeup News : Tanning, SPF, Beauty

Monday, April 30th, 2012

Happy Monday LM loves, I hope everyone had a spectacular weekend!  How many of you have tried tanning oils? You know the ones that  help you tan faster and darker. Well I tried one over the weekend and I absolutely loved it, the brand is Australian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator spray gel.

I must admit I am a sun bather, but I always do it safely sunscreen 30 on the face and I make sure not to stay out to long. That’s  the reason why I wanted to try an accelerator formula to speed up my tanning process so I’m not in the sun baking .  I purchased both the spray gel and the lotion, becasue I wasn’t sure which I’d like better but they are 8.99 each so that’s a great price for a 8 oz  bottle.I started out using the spray gel. I love the smell and it absorbs into the skin quickly with a non greasy feel. I laid out for about 45 minutes and at first I didn’t notice a difference, so then I put the lotion on and went out for about 30 more minutes. When I came in after that I could definitely see the tan lines.

Overall it did give me a darker tan look to my skin, but  I was looking for more of a bronze tone to my skin, with a more golden undertone. My skin did feel really smooth, but I think I’m going to use it a few more times to see if I will get that bronze sun kissed glow I’m looking for! Until Next time…Love & Lipstick!

Makeup must have’s for the WEekend

Friday, April 20th, 2012

So it’s Friday and you know what that means! Cheers to the freaking  weekend! Whether you’re going out of town or hitting up your favorite spot, make sure you have the hottest makeup must haves to blow everybody’s mind!

If you’re hanging out during the day or going out for drinks or movie night, I suggest wearing a look that’s  versatile!

I am in  love Lancome new Summer eyeshadow palette, the colors have a high pigment pay off and the texture is the smoothest ever. It literally glides over the skin like silk it’s so creamy yet it stays put.  The colors are perfect for going from day to night. This is the best thing about this palette the colors can look as natural and glowy as you like or as dramatic and smokey as you want for the night! It’s  perfect for chilling, out to lunch or getting into something latter on the evening ; D

No time to get lashes done then you need the best lengthening and voluminous mascara  ever and that’s Haute & Naughty Mascara by M.A.C! I never swear by anything but this mascara never ever fails me or my clients! People always ask me what lashes I’m wearing when Ihave it on it is the BEST mascara period!

Now if you are saving yourself for  hanging out at night  here’s a few makeup must haves to keep your makeup on point and in place. If you haven’t heard by now Urban Decay Primer Potion is the best thing for your eyeshadow life!

So many people swear by this primer, you can’t go  on any YOUTUBE makeup tutorial and it’s not being used! It is the best. So for a long girls night out, place this  underneath your purple smokey eye and eyes are on point all night!

Don’t forget your signature fragrance especially if you’re heading out of town. I love to go out of town with my favorite fragrance  LOVE by Chole and a Pure Grace body spray by Philosophy. It’s spring, so  switch up your scent, fragrances that are light, citrus and  sexy are the best for this time of year.

Your look isn’t complete yet, don’t leave the house this weekend without your favorite LM lipstick! That is essential to your entire makeup look day or night. LM lipsticks in Park Avenue Pink is perfect for shopping all day and Esther is the perfect lipstick for partying all night so check the LM store to get your LM lipstick this weekend!
