Famed celebrity makeup artist, Sir John, & Luminess Cosmetics are proud to present a Limited-Edition Collection inspired by Disney's "The Lion King." Having fallen in love with the incredible imagination and storytelling of Disney's original "The Lion King" in his youth, Sir John's connection with the film and the world it takes place in was further heightened when his work took him throughout Africa.
In partnering with Luminess Cosmetics, known for their high quality & innovative products, Sir John was able to create a limited-edition collection to celebrate the new film, in theaters July 19, 2019, when director Jon Favreau brings the iconic characters to life in a whole new way.
The collaboration has created a one-of-a-kind makeup collection featuring highly pigmented formulas with colors curated from the African landscape to create equally stunning day and night looks, handpicked by Sir John. From the innovators at Luminess Cosmetics, the rich formulas come together in hand-designed layered packaging, inspired by the iconic scenes and characters from the film. The quality of the makeup cannot be overstated, with all new formulations, deep pan powders, finely-milled eyeshadows and long wear lip products.
The inspiration behind these products comes from the story line itself: a young lion prince living in the flourishing African Pride Lands and his journey to adult-hood. The passionate tale of perseverance has still permeated society 25 years after the original film was released. Colorful moments in the movie have been reimagined in the collection, such as the rich fruit color Rafiki anoints Simba matches the Be Prepared Liquid Lipstick "Romantic Atmosphere." The rich neutrals in the "Can't Wait to Be Queen" Eyeshadow Palette mimics the rich clays found in Africa. The unmistakable sunset orange/red color from the iconic movie poster can be found in the striking Be Brave Matte Lipstick "Lion's Mane."
Together, Sir John & Luminess Cosmetics have worked closely to artistically capture the essence of the film's characters in its modern-day cosmetic collection.

Women love makeup, clothes and shoes. Even if you aren’t a constant lipstick wearer, you probably still put some makeup on for special occasions. Whilst buying an excessive amount of lipstick is not at all practical and can be very expensive, having at least a few choices is a must for every woman.
Most women know their best shades, but the problem with makeup is always the same – too many choices and types. If you’re looking to limit these choices and select the best lipsticks you can use in your makeup collection, you should definitely keep reading this article. With the incredible lipstick items in this list, you can pull together an excellent look within seconds.
Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick
When it comes to lipstick choices, this is by far the most popular one and part of almost every arsenal beauty list. One of the reasons for this is the versatility of lipstick shades and features they offer. The range of lipsticks at Charlotte Tilbury varies in pricing, formula, and shade.
Generally speaking, you can choose between two main lipstick formulas:
Matte Revolution
K.I.S.S.I.N.G.
The first option is obviously, a matte finish choice, while the latter is creamier. Both these formulas make for a combination of 22 shades you can use separately or together for a ‘fuller’ effect.
‘’I’ve recently been given a task to review lipsticks and write quality content on the topic. As a woman, I thought I know a lot about them. But, once I actually got to read about texture, shades, and especially pigments, I learned that I know nothing.’ – explains Karmen Torres, a content and research expert for a write an essay for me service. ‘I got so interested in the matter, I’ve actually put this topic in my list of favorite short story ideas. It is soon after that I realized how powerful knowledge about lipsticks can be for a woman.
The best lipstick women have chosen not only comes in some beautiful and varied colors, but it is also high-quality makeup. The creamy lipstick texture is unnoticeable by your skin and does not give you that dry feeling many lipsticks do. The pigments used in the makeup are long-lasting and rich.
Colourpop Crème Lux Lipstick
If the first choice in our beauty arsenal list is too expensive for you at the moment, you can always opt for a more budget-friendly option. There are amazing lipstick choices with a very low price tag that won’t break the bank. In fact, this particular choice is one of the most popular affordable versions, often even preferred over the more expensive choices.
The Colourpop Crème Lux lipstick has a cream-like formula that is similar to the hydrating balms women use to keep their lips fresh and moisturized. It uses pomegranate and jojoba seed butter, which promote the health of your lips while at the same time making them look attractive.
The shades of this lipstick choice are much more limited. You can select between eight shades with this lipstick choice.
E.L.F. Day to Night Lipstick Duo
Instead of buying separate shades of lipsticks for day and night use, you can go and purchase the day to night lipstick duo offered by E.L.F. and minimize the expenses, as well as the makeup you carry around in your purse. The combinations are masterfully created with lighter shades for day and darker shades for night.
If you aren’t really into lipsticks and shades, this can come very handy. You won’t have to purchase and carry several lipsticks around, while you’ll also be able to buy two at the cost of one.
Thankfully, the company has combined similar colors of different shades into four products. Based on your favorite shade, you can choose one of their products and use two lipsticks of ‘the same family’.
Physicians Formula Velvet Liquid Lip
Are you into the matte lipstick and shade trend? If you love it, this is one of the best matte options you can find. This brand is very popular for its beneficial and pretty shades, as well as the perfect matte formula. The lipsticks offer benefits for your skin and combine avocado oil, hyaluronic-acid and vitamins A and E. Not only is this a skincare advantage to the user, but it’s also very easy to apply thanks to their doe-foot applicators.
Do you possess some of these lipsticks in your makeup collection? If you don’t and are looking for a new lipstick supply, these are the best of the best you can find. They offer versatile shade and formula options that would suit the preferences and skin color of every woman. Having these lipsticks handy will give you the tool you need to transform yourself into something magnificent with a single glide of the applicator.
Author’s Bio:
Elizabeth Skinner is a beauty blogger and a makeup artist all in one. She tests different methods of beautifying and keeping your skin and hair fresh and young. In her numerous blog posts on beauty and health published online, you can learn some great tips and beauty-related tricks.
I love learning about skin care companies that I hadn't heard of before. I was recently browsing online for lash enhancing serums, and I discovered Luma By Laura. I was given the chance to review a few of their products, which are perfect for re-vamping your summertime beauty routine.
First, there is LumaLash – Rapid Eyelash Growth Serum with Red Grape Peptide for Longer Looking Lashes & Brows. I am always on the lookout for a lash growth serum that isn't too expensive, and really works!
POWERFUL PEPTIDE GROWTH SERUM - Stem cell complex that acts as a growth serum, making your eyelashes appear longer and thicker.
STRENGTHENS YOUR LASHES - This Innovative Formula nourishes skin at the base while moisturizing and conditioning each strand, which helps reduce breakage and encourages a look of longer and plumper lashes.
ANTIOXIDANT SUPPORT FOR WEAK AND SPARSE LASHES - this formula harnesses the power of stem cells derived from the skin of red grapes, which provide strong antioxidant benefits.
WORKS AS A MOISTURIZER - Just as hair needs a conditioner, so do lashes. Glycerin, a humectant, ensures that the delicate lash area is deeply hydrated, and also works to prevent any valuable moisture from escaping.
I have been using my Rapid Eyelash Growth Serum for about six weeks now, and have noticed that my lashes are fuller. I can't wait to see them grow! For now, they are definitely more lush.
With the weather getting warmer, my skin has been getting quite greasy! I had been getting rather large zits on my chin, and I hate that! I needed something to help reduce the oiliness and to keep my pores clear. LumaMask – Therapeutic Zinc & Sulfur Mask With Salicylic Acid to Deep Clean Pores for Blackhead Removal does the following:
BEST BLACKHEAD REMOVER - Contains a combination of therapeutic bentonite clay (acts as a dirt magnet), salicylic acid and sulfur which remove dirt, toxins and impurities from your facial pores.
FIGHTS AWAY BLEMISHES - LumaMask's effective clay based formula targets blemishes so that you enjoy fresh, soft and glowing skin after just a single use!
REDUCES SWELLING & REDNESS - Uses the natural healing properties of zinc oxide to help calm, soothe and reduce the appearance of redness on sensitive skin types.
EXFOLIATES DEAD SKIN - Our formula uses salicylic acid (a beta hydroxy acid) to help dissolve impactions. It reduces the appearance of impactions and large pores by exfoliating and releasing impurites.
REMOVES OIL & IMPURITIES FROM YOUR SKIN - Uses zinc oxide to absorb excess oil and reduces sebum buildup within the follicles.
I use this amazing mask once each week. I simply smooth a thin layer over my clean skin, avoiding my eye area. I leave on my face for 10-15 minutes and remove it with a damp wash cloth. My skin is left feeling fresh, clean and oil free. I haven't seen any zits since I have started using this product.
Another really fun, and perfect for summer beauty staple that I have been enjoying is TempiTats Temporary Tattoos. they are just a fun and non-committed way to express yourself!
The idea for TempiTats started in the spring of 2015 at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Co-Founder, Erica Meyer, noticed the lack of design selections of metallic temporary tattoos her fellow music festival-goers were wearing.
After searching online, she was unhappy with how expensive and limiting the selections of these jewelry-inspired metallic tattoos were and decided to create her own designs that were not only unique and beautiful but also affordable. From this, TempiTats was born.
Erica, the creative mind behind TempiTats, is hard at work coming up with unique designs that continue to appeal to anyone and for any occasion. TempiTats now has hundreds of designs in gold, silver, black, turquoise, and so many other colors! She's enlisted the help of her fiancé Dave who is the marketing guru and responsible for running the business.
I received samples of TempiTats to review, and tried out several gorgeous designs on different parts of my body, and asked my husband what he thought. Part of him thought it was sexy, the other part of him thought it was funny. I guess I am just a little old for these types of things. I could see wearing one to a fun-outdoor festival, to add a touch of uniqueness to your summer style.
I gave a few of them to my twenty-one year old daughter, and she plans to sport her favorite designs when the weather gets a little warmer where she lives in Utah.
Celebrity makeup artist, Denika Bedrossian (@dendoll), created last night’s makeup look on bareMinerals Clean Beauty Ambassador Hailey Bieber for the Met Ball red carpet. Please see below for the full look breakdown!
The Inspiration: For Hailey’s Met Ball look, Denika wanted to go with something sexy and mysterious to go with her stunning Alexander Wang gown. The vibrant color and shine of the fabric inspires us to go with a modern take on the classic Barbie.
How to Get the Look:
SKIN
For dewy skin using the bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Hydrating Foundation Stick SPF 25, Denika lightly buffed it in with the bareMineralsSmoothing Face Brush. She added highlight and natural glow by adding the bareMinerals BAREPRO Glow Liquid Highlighter in Whimsy. She then stippled it in with her ring finger, creating a natural finish. Adding a dust of bareMinerals Endless Glow Pressed Highlighting Powder in Whimsy gave that extra pop of iridescent pink. Denika also dusted it on the eye lids for an additional highlight.
Denika then warmed up the skin and added a slight contour by using the bareMinerals Endless Summer Bronzer in Warmth. She dusted the apples of her cheeks with the bareMinerals Loose Powder Blush in Hint.
EYES
For Hailey’s sultry eyes, Denika used the bareMinerals Lash Domination Liquid Eyeliner in black to create a dramatic and bold cat eye. She layered it to get an extremely bold pigment and brought down the liner to the bottom lash line using the bareMinerals Round the Clock Intense Cream-GlideEyeliner in the waterline and below the lashes. After layers of mascara on top and bottom, she then added a corner lash for drama.
LIPS
For her perfect pout, Denika mixed together Smooch and Infamous in bareMinerals Gen Nude Matte Liquid Lipstick. This gave a perfect little nude lip to pair with the most stunning dress and such a sexy eye.
Where to Find Them: bareMinerals products are available at bareMinerals boutiques and bareMinerals.com. Also available at Sephora, ULTA, Macy’s, Dillard’s, fine spas and salons. Visit bareMinerals.com for store locations.
Makeup artist Karl Sanchez, worked with singer and songwriter Zhavia Ward on Rimmel London’s new Stay Matte campaign. The campaign idea came to life when it was learned that Zhavia was a huge fan of Rimmel London; the campaign will include a video showcasing how Stay Matte fits into Zhavia’s daily routine and feature her second single “Deep Down.” Below please find a full breakdown of Zhavia’s makeup look!
Who: Zhavia on the set of Rimmel London’s latest campaign for Stay Matte
How To Get The Look:
Face
Karl applied the Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation and Rimmel London Stay Matte Concealer in Zhavia’s shade, Vanilla and then applied the Rimmel London Maxi Blush in Sweet Cheeks to give her some color to her cheeks.
Eyes
Using the Rimmel London Magnif’Eyes Eyeshadow Palette Nude Edition, Karl darkened the crease with the 10th shade. He used the 8th shade in the palette to smoke out the outer corner and under the eye to intensify and applied the 3rd shade on the eyelid. Karl then used the 1st shade and applied to the inner corner of the eye to act as a highlight. He finished off the eye look by applying Rimmel London Exaggerate Eye Definer to create a winged look and to slightly smoke the eye and topped off the eyes by applying Rimmel London Scandal’eyes WOW Wings Mascara.
Lips
He finished off the look by applying a touch of color to the lips with Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lip in "Be My Baby" followed by a clear lip gloss.
Where to Find Them: Rimmel London products are available at chain drug stores and mass retailers nationwide.

Disney's The Lion King Limited Edition Cosmetic Collection By Sir John X Luminess Launches June 15, 2019
Famed celebrity makeup artist, Sir John, & Luminess Cosmetics are proud to present a Limited-Edition Collection inspired by Disney's "The Lion King." Having fallen in love with the incredible imagination and storytelling of Disney's original "The Lion King" in his youth, Sir John's connection with the film and the world it takes place in was further heightened when his work took him throughout Africa.
In partnering with Luminess Cosmetics, known for their high quality & innovative products, Sir John was able to create a limited-edition collection to celebrate the new film, in theaters July 19, 2019, when director Jon Favreau brings the iconic characters to life in a whole new way.
The collaboration has created a one-of-a-kind makeup collection featuring highly pigmented formulas with colors curated from the African landscape to create equally stunning day and night looks, handpicked by Sir John. From the innovators at Luminess Cosmetics, the rich formulas come together in hand-designed layered packaging, inspired by the iconic scenes and characters from the film. The quality of the makeup cannot be overstated, with all new formulations, deep pan powders, finely-milled eyeshadows and long wear lip products.
The inspiration behind these products comes from the story line itself: a young lion prince living in the flourishing African Pride Lands and his journey to adult-hood. The passionate tale of perseverance has still permeated society 25 years after the original film was released. Colorful moments in the movie have been reimagined in the collection, such as the rich fruit color Rafiki anoints Simba matches the Be Prepared Liquid Lipstick "Romantic Atmosphere." The rich neutrals in the "Can't Wait to Be Queen" Eyeshadow Palette mimics the rich clays found in Africa. The unmistakable sunset orange/red color from the iconic movie poster can be found in the striking Be Brave Matte Lipstick "Lion's Mane."
Together, Sir John & Luminess Cosmetics have worked closely to artistically capture the essence of the film's characters in its modern-day cosmetic collection.
Collection product retails:

Disney's The Lion King Limited Edition Cosmetic Collection By Sir John X Luminess Launches June 15, 2019
Famed celebrity makeup artist, Sir John, & Luminess Cosmetics are proud to present a Limited-Edition Collection inspired by Disney's "The Lion King." Having fallen in love with the incredible imagination and storytelling of Disney's original "The Lion King" in his youth, Sir John's connection with the film and the world it takes place in was further heightened when his work took him throughout Africa.
In partnering with Luminess Cosmetics, known for their high quality & innovative products, Sir John was able to create a limited-edition collection to celebrate the new film, in theaters July 19, 2019, when director Jon Favreau brings the iconic characters to life in a whole new way.
The collaboration has created a one-of-a-kind makeup collection featuring highly pigmented formulas with colors curated from the African landscape to create equally stunning day and night looks, handpicked by Sir John. From the innovators at Luminess Cosmetics, the rich formulas come together in hand-designed layered packaging, inspired by the iconic scenes and characters from the film. The quality of the makeup cannot be overstated, with all new formulations, deep pan powders, finely-milled eyeshadows and long wear lip products.
The inspiration behind these products comes from the story line itself: a young lion prince living in the flourishing African Pride Lands and his journey to adult-hood. The passionate tale of perseverance has still permeated society 25 years after the original film was released. Colorful moments in the movie have been reimagined in the collection, such as the rich fruit color Rafiki anoints Simba matches the Be Prepared Liquid Lipstick "Romantic Atmosphere." The rich neutrals in the "Can't Wait to Be Queen" Eyeshadow Palette mimics the rich clays found in Africa. The unmistakable sunset orange/red color from the iconic movie poster can be found in the striking Be Brave Matte Lipstick "Lion's Mane."
Together, Sir John & Luminess Cosmetics have worked closely to artistically capture the essence of the film's characters in its modern-day cosmetic collection.
Collection product retails:
I was given the chance to review one of The Lion King Limited Edition Cosmetic Collections gorgeous Be Prepared Liquid Lipstick. I chose the beautiful shade, called "Trouble."
Look at the pretty box it comes in!
Here is what the shade 'Trouble' looks like on me
I love this liquid lipstick because it is highly pigmented and has beautiful, rich color. It is a long wearing formula that stays true for hours, and does not feather into any lip creases. Trouble is the perfect shade for me!
Retail roll out begins Saturday, June 15th, 2019 at www.LuminessCosmetics.com/disney, the preferred retailer. On Sunday, June 16th, 2019 the collection will be available at www.ShopDisney.com and www.ULTA.com. On Monday, July 1st, 2019 the collection will be available in select Ulta stores.
ABOUT THE LION KING FILM:
Disney's "The Lion King, directed by Jon Favreau, journeys to the African savanna where a future king is born. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub's arrival. Scar, Mufasa's brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba's exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. The all-star cast includes Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa and Billy Eichner as Timon. Utilizing pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring treasured characters to life in a whole new way, Disney's "The Lion King" roars into theaters on July 19, 2019.

Lipsticks That You Should Have In Your Arsenal
Women love makeup, clothes and shoes. Even if you aren’t a constant lipstick wearer, you probably still put some makeup on for special occasions. Whilst buying an excessive amount of lipstick is not at all practical and can be very expensive, having at least a few choices is a must for every woman.
Most women know their best shades, but the problem with makeup is always the same – too many choices and types. If you’re looking to limit these choices and select the best lipsticks you can use in your makeup collection, you should definitely keep reading this article. With the incredible lipstick items in this list, you can pull together an excellent look within seconds.
Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick
When it comes to lipstick choices, this is by far the most popular one and part of almost every arsenal beauty list. One of the reasons for this is the versatility of lipstick shades and features they offer. The range of lipsticks at Charlotte Tilbury varies in pricing, formula, and shade.
Generally speaking, you can choose between two main lipstick formulas:
The first option is obviously, a matte finish choice, while the latter is creamier. Both these formulas make for a combination of 22 shades you can use separately or together for a ‘fuller’ effect.
‘’I’ve recently been given a task to review lipsticks and write quality content on the topic. As a woman, I thought I know a lot about them. But, once I actually got to read about texture, shades, and especially pigments, I learned that I know nothing.’ – explains Karmen Torres, a content and research expert for a write an essay for me service. ‘I got so interested in the matter, I’ve actually put this topic in my list of favorite short story ideas. It is soon after that I realized how powerful knowledge about lipsticks can be for a woman.
The best lipstick women have chosen not only comes in some beautiful and varied colors, but it is also high-quality makeup. The creamy lipstick texture is unnoticeable by your skin and does not give you that dry feeling many lipsticks do. The pigments used in the makeup are long-lasting and rich.
Colourpop Crème Lux Lipstick
If the first choice in our beauty arsenal list is too expensive for you at the moment, you can always opt for a more budget-friendly option. There are amazing lipstick choices with a very low price tag that won’t break the bank. In fact, this particular choice is one of the most popular affordable versions, often even preferred over the more expensive choices.
The Colourpop Crème Lux lipstick has a cream-like formula that is similar to the hydrating balms women use to keep their lips fresh and moisturized. It uses pomegranate and jojoba seed butter, which promote the health of your lips while at the same time making them look attractive.
The shades of this lipstick choice are much more limited. You can select between eight shades with this lipstick choice.
E.L.F. Day to Night Lipstick Duo
Instead of buying separate shades of lipsticks for day and night use, you can go and purchase the day to night lipstick duo offered by E.L.F. and minimize the expenses, as well as the makeup you carry around in your purse. The combinations are masterfully created with lighter shades for day and darker shades for night.
If you aren’t really into lipsticks and shades, this can come very handy. You won’t have to purchase and carry several lipsticks around, while you’ll also be able to buy two at the cost of one.
Thankfully, the company has combined similar colors of different shades into four products. Based on your favorite shade, you can choose one of their products and use two lipsticks of ‘the same family’.
Physicians Formula Velvet Liquid Lip
Are you into the matte lipstick and shade trend? If you love it, this is one of the best matte options you can find. This brand is very popular for its beneficial and pretty shades, as well as the perfect matte formula. The lipsticks offer benefits for your skin and combine avocado oil, hyaluronic-acid and vitamins A and E. Not only is this a skincare advantage to the user, but it’s also very easy to apply thanks to their doe-foot applicators.
Do you possess some of these lipsticks in your makeup collection? If you don’t and are looking for a new lipstick supply, these are the best of the best you can find. They offer versatile shade and formula options that would suit the preferences and skin color of every woman. Having these lipsticks handy will give you the tool you need to transform yourself into something magnificent with a single glide of the applicator.

Summertime Beauty Alert! A Few of My Latest Beauty Faves!
I love learning about skin care companies that I hadn't heard of before. I was recently browsing online for lash enhancing serums, and I discovered Luma By Laura. I was given the chance to review a few of their products, which are perfect for re-vamping your summertime beauty routine.
First, there is LumaLash – Rapid Eyelash Growth Serum with Red Grape Peptide for Longer Looking Lashes & Brows. I am always on the lookout for a lash growth serum that isn't too expensive, and really works!
POWERFUL PEPTIDE GROWTH SERUM - Stem cell complex that acts as a growth serum, making your eyelashes appear longer and thicker.
I have been using my Rapid Eyelash Growth Serum for about six weeks now, and have noticed that my lashes are fuller. I can't wait to see them grow! For now, they are definitely more lush.
With the weather getting warmer, my skin has been getting quite greasy! I had been getting rather large zits on my chin, and I hate that! I needed something to help reduce the oiliness and to keep my pores clear. LumaMask – Therapeutic Zinc & Sulfur Mask With Salicylic Acid to Deep Clean Pores for Blackhead Removal does the following:
I use this amazing mask once each week. I simply smooth a thin layer over my clean skin, avoiding my eye area. I leave on my face for 10-15 minutes and remove it with a damp wash cloth. My skin is left feeling fresh, clean and oil free. I haven't seen any zits since I have started using this product.
Another really fun, and perfect for summer beauty staple that I have been enjoying is TempiTats Temporary Tattoos. they are just a fun and non-committed way to express yourself!
The idea for TempiTats started in the spring of 2015 at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Co-Founder, Erica Meyer, noticed the lack of design selections of metallic temporary tattoos her fellow music festival-goers were wearing.
After searching online, she was unhappy with how expensive and limiting the selections of these jewelry-inspired metallic tattoos were and decided to create her own designs that were not only unique and beautiful but also affordable. From this, TempiTats was born.
Erica, the creative mind behind TempiTats, is hard at work coming up with unique designs that continue to appeal to anyone and for any occasion. TempiTats now has hundreds of designs in gold, silver, black, turquoise, and so many other colors! She's enlisted the help of her fiancé Dave who is the marketing guru and responsible for running the business.
I received samples of TempiTats to review, and tried out several gorgeous designs on different parts of my body, and asked my husband what he thought. Part of him thought it was sexy, the other part of him thought it was funny. I guess I am just a little old for these types of things. I could see wearing one to a fun-outdoor festival, to add a touch of uniqueness to your summer style.
I gave a few of them to my twenty-one year old daughter, and she plans to sport her favorite designs when the weather gets a little warmer where she lives in Utah.

Get the Look: Hailey Bieber | Met Gala Red Carpet 2019
Celebrity makeup artist, Denika Bedrossian (@dendoll), created last night’s makeup look on bareMinerals Clean Beauty Ambassador Hailey Bieber for the Met Ball red carpet. Please see below for the full look breakdown!
The Inspiration: For Hailey’s Met Ball look, Denika wanted to go with something sexy and mysterious to go with her stunning Alexander Wang gown. The vibrant color and shine of the fabric inspires us to go with a modern take on the classic Barbie.
How to Get the Look:
SKIN
For dewy skin using the bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Hydrating Foundation Stick SPF 25, Denika lightly buffed it in with the bareMinerals Smoothing Face Brush. She added highlight and natural glow by adding the bareMinerals BAREPRO Glow Liquid Highlighter in Whimsy. She then stippled it in with her ring finger, creating a natural finish. Adding a dust of bareMinerals Endless Glow Pressed Highlighting Powder in Whimsy gave that extra pop of iridescent pink. Denika also dusted it on the eye lids for an additional highlight.
Denika then warmed up the skin and added a slight contour by using the bareMinerals Endless Summer Bronzer in Warmth. She dusted the apples of her cheeks with the bareMinerals Loose Powder Blush in Hint.
EYES
For Hailey’s sultry eyes, Denika used the bareMinerals Lash Domination Liquid Eyeliner in black to create a dramatic and bold cat eye. She layered it to get an extremely bold pigment and brought down the liner to the bottom lash line using the bareMinerals Round the Clock Intense Cream-GlideEyeliner in the waterline and below the lashes. After layers of mascara on top and bottom, she then added a corner lash for drama.
LIPS
For her perfect pout, Denika mixed together Smooch and Infamous in bareMinerals Gen Nude Matte Liquid Lipstick. This gave a perfect little nude lip to pair with the most stunning dress and such a sexy eye.
Where to Find Them: bareMinerals products are available at bareMinerals boutiques and bareMinerals.com. Also available at Sephora, ULTA, Macy’s, Dillard’s, fine spas and salons. Visit bareMinerals.com for store locations.
