I'm really stoked about this bronzer. It smells so delicious. Like you know when Cady made Regina's face smell like a foot? A sweet pepperminty foot and then Aaron Samuels was all like YASSS. It's like that except chocolate so obvious even BETTER than that. It's also less warm so I think it'll be perfect for fall and winter contouring. Holla. </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I love this lipstick! It had been SO long since I had bought new makeup and browsing the MAC counter was my first mistake! Naturally the one I wanted was sold out, I called 4 other MAC Stores and finally found it at the standalone near me. I'm talking about Feed the Senses from the new Indulge collection. It is sheer nudey pink perfection and I needed it in my life! I also picked up Big Baby Plushglass to pair with it of course. Can't wait to do a look of the day with them!</span></div>

I'm back with the second installment of my Pink Friday look. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my hair when I do this style and many questions as to how I do it. They're called Bantu Knots and they're pretty simple to do. It works on every hair type and all ethnicities too! (Yes, Amanda. White girls can do it too!) I love Bantu Knots, they're a great no-heat way to get a big head of curls. And we all know I love big hair. I usually do mine after washing my hair for a tighter curl, but it works just as well on dry hair too. All you need are Bobby Pins and maybe a light leave-in conditioner. </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center">Here we go!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="color: rgb(231, 12, 161);">Step 1:</span> Grab a portion of your hair, it doesn't have to be neat or parted. I usually grab a section about as wide as 3 fingers. The smaller the section, tighter the curl. I sprayed a little bit of<span style="color: rgb(231, 12, 161);"> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Spoil-Defrizzer-Smoother-Instant-Refrizzer/dp/B002RS6KSY">TIGI Bed Head Spoil Me Defrizzer, Smoother & Instant Restyler</a> </span>for a little bit of product, you'll see the particles on my hair in a bit.<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center">Once you've got your section of hair, start twisting it. Just a simple twist a 3/4ths of the way down.<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSSqRDzI/AAAAAAAACwg/WG8eHeKTYw4/s1600/P1020489.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 276px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSSqRDzI/AAAAAAAACwg/WG8eHeKTYw4/s400/P1020489.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564456039095537458" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(231, 12, 161);">Step 2:</span> Coil the hair around itself at the root of the twist. It may be a little hard to get at first, but you'll get the hang of it. Just continue to wrap the twist around into a little knot.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSS6XLSI/AAAAAAAACwY/3N1giqmyjy8/s1600/P1020491.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 362px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSS6XLSI/AAAAAAAACwY/3N1giqmyjy8/s400/P1020491.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564456039163047202" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSHfYgzI/AAAAAAAACwQ/0NdVK95T8c0/s1600/P1020493.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 332px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrSHfYgzI/AAAAAAAACwQ/0NdVK95T8c0/s400/P1020493.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564456036097098546" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(231, 12, 161);">Step 3:</span> Twist the rest of the section down and wrap it around the knot. It should be tight enough to tuck into the bottom of the knot, but I like to secure it with a Bobby Pin. Just stick it right through the middle of the knot. I usually do 8 to 9 knots all over my head, 4 or 5 if I want more waves than curls.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrR510rVI/AAAAAAAACwI/UPiAfMW5tcg/s1600/P1020496.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 346px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TTjrR510rVI/AAAAAAAACwI/UPiAfMW5tcg/s400/P1020496.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564456032433122642" border="0" /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center">Now you wait. I usually wash my hair at night, knot it and half way through the next day it should be dry. If you want to speed up the process sit under the hair dryer or use a blow dryer.

I'm a little late to the game on getting this palette. I decided on Monday that I just had to have it. Little did I know that this palette has been highly sought after for quite some time. It is sold out <span style="font-weight: bold;">everywhere</span>. Sephora.com. Ulta.com Even Urban Decay.com. I called my nearby Sephora and was disappointed to hear that they too, didn't have any left. Resigned, I asked if I could be put on the waiting list. She went to the back to get it and came back saying there was ONE left that someone put on hold, but never came to get. I was like what! I locked that baby down over the phone and speed off to go get it. And voila, my very own Naked palette. I was so lucky to be able to get one the day I decided I wanted it. I hate waiting and I'd have been waiting forever!<br /><br />I haven't used it yet, but it sure is beautiful. It comes with 12 full-sized shadows, a travel size of Primer Potion and a doubled ended eyeliner pencil. Uploading these pics to blogger has taken away some of the color impact, but when I swatch and review them, I'll upload them another way so you can see just how brilliant these shades are. Here's a little porn of the Urban Decay Naked Palette.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/TORge8kyneI/AAAAAAAACpU/9I9w35Vk9zw/s1600/2.jpg"><img style="display: block;

Danielle here.</span></p><span style="font-family:century gothic;"> </span><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family:century gothic;">A nude lip color is the perfect companion for heavy eye makeup or just a simple all-around “I’m naturally this good looking” understated look. But “nude” is totally dependent on an individual’s skin tone and not everyone can wear a light creme beige as their nude. I’ve put together a quick guide to help you find <em>your</em> nude. Check it out.<br /><a rel="attachment wp-att-29764" href="http://fashionbombdaily.com/2010/04/27/nude-lipstick-for-skin-of-color/padma-lakshmi-nude-lips/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-29764" src="http://fashionbombdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/padma-lakshmi-nude-lips.jpg" alt="" height="400" width="300" /></a></span></p><span style="font-family:century gothic;"> </span><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family:century gothic;"><strong>Nude lip color tips</strong>:<br />1. Be sure your lips are properly exfoliated (rub a wet toothbrush over your lips) and moisturized (Chapstick will do, but for super-dry lips try <a href="http://www.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=133451457&pid=uid6849-1077543-60">Clinique All About Lips</a> or <a href="http://www.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=45597041&pid=uid6849-1077543-60">Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Skin Protectant</a>).<br />2.

Carol's Daughter products specifically leave out certain harmful ingredients that can strip and dry out your hair, doing more harm than good.

I gave her the stats and told her to keep an eye out for my review. If you're reading now, hi! This color is that show stopping. I love deep dark purples and grays and this is totally fitting my mood and my new fall wardrobe lol.

I know it says the sheer factor is about a 2 and that is what I was expecting, but honestly, with a good two coats, like in the pictures below, the color is great and a little opaque.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/SpP8GHiFkNI/AAAAAAAABOk/rTpqkna4l7A/s1600-h/indoors.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 262px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/SpP8GHiFkNI/AAAAAAAABOk/rTpqkna4l7A/s400/indoors.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373915962414567634" border="0" /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style=";font-family:century gothic;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-family:CENTURY GOTHIC;">I'm super hard on my nails and so my polish is usually always smudging or chipping within a week.

<span style="font-family: century gothic; font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: century gothic;">Being a makeup artist, sanitation is the MOST important thing. You never want to spread germs from client to client so keeping a clean kit is very important. Regular cleaning of brushes, spraying of alcohol on your tools and pencils, and wiping down of powder products. Also, using separate lip brushes and scraping your lip products on a palette.</span></span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 100%;"><span style="font-family: century gothic;">My lipsticks were seriously overpowering my kit as far as space goes so I decided to find a way to save space and help keep things more sanitary. I "de-tubed", as I like to say, the majority of my lipsticks. It was a hard decision because I love the little tubes and found them so portable, and I especially loved my limited edition tubes. Plus, think of all the Back 2 Mac you can do!</span></span><br />

I've been doing a lot of shoots lately and have been heading out and trying new things. I did two very different photo shoots this weekend and I'm really loving the edginess of this one. More editorial. I'm really heading in that direction more and I'm LOVING IT! I'm working with some great photographers and clients and I expect to have more pictures back soon.<br /><br />Here are some pictures of a shoot I did just this Saturday. The model's name is Arielle and I love her look. Big love to LK with the photography.

I think it smells THAT good.

Perfect for nights out and the fall and winter seasons. Again, I will say, this may not work for you as everyone’s body chemistries are different, but atleast take the time to find out! =} I think its pretty long lasting; we always think our scent fades, but we really just get used to the smell being on us so we don’t notice it anymore. But for an even longer lasting application, you can also purchase the body lotion and apply it before you spray your perfume.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/SLVO3NrVOsI/AAAAAAAAAPU/hdjDZLqSoEI/s1600-h/04542431003.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kA2kD0kZzOA/SLVO3NrVOsI/AAAAAAAAAPU/hdjDZLqSoEI/s400/04542431003.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239180451986619074" border="0"></a></p><span style="font-family:century gothic;"> </span><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-family:century gothic;"> </span></o:p></p><span style="font-family:century gothic;"> </span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com12
