Every Fab Chick Needs a Good Foundation...

I was browsing in Nordstrom the other day when I met Art from the Gorgio Armani Counter.  Let me start by saying that I am very familiar with Gorgio Armani, the designer but had never had any connection with the beauty brand.

Art went on to say that GA foundation had won this prestigious award as having the best foundation in the business.   I looked at him and kinda rolled my eyes like, "yeah, sure.."  I mean you girls know what I'm taking about.  Every week there's a new brand promising something.

I have to confess, after trying the Gorgio Armani, silk foundation; I am seriously hooked.  It just melts on my skin.  To be honest, it looks like a SECOND SKIN.  I also tried the sheer illuminating liquid for that extra glow and BAM!  I now have my summer flawless complexion.

It is so worth the price.  Just goes to show you that a girl can always learn something new.

Beauty Shot

I recently picked up Beauty Water by Jonathan.  

NO, it's not some beauty elixir which makes you look and feel 10 years younger instantly!

It's a shower purification system created by Jonathan, celebrity hairstylist.  I hear, he used to tell his clients to shampoo with bottled water because of the damage which ordinary tap water can cause on hair and skin.

Finally after trying it (I have been wanting one for a while now), I have to say that it was worth the wait.  First of all my skin felt less dry after my shower and my hair was smooth and silky.

This might sound CRAZY but, the water didn't irritate my eyes like it usually does.  If it's going to help my hair color lasts longer, i'm all for that too.

This product is the BOMB!!!

With a name like Beauty Water, who can resist it!

Kiss and Makeup

Red Lipstick.  It goes with that little black dress as easily as your favorite pair of sexy jeans.

It's a universal classic and never goes out of style.  These days, beauty editors are all raving that red lips are back.   I say, it never went out of style if you ask me.

It's still the most sexy and provocative shade on the planet.

Most women assume they can't wear it but they're dead wrong.  

Here's how to do it:

1.  For a strong, sexy lip, skip the eyeliner and just use mascara instead.   Illuminate skin and opt for a soft blush on cheeks.

2. Red lipstick will bleed so use a complimentary lipliner first.

3.  Pick the right red for you.  For pinker complexions, choose plum reds, while yellow and      orange undertones are flattered by warmer reds that have a brown base.

4.  Now go ahead and work it!
