TOM FORD CONTOUR

: Tom Ford
the name and the brand are the new noun for class and sex.

When I think of sexy makeup it defiantly changes as the seasons progress or De-gress.
But: one thing always stays.
CONTOURING and HIGHLIGHTING.
simply put: Shade and Illuminate.
Although the properties of his products are rich in high quality ingredients
that leave your skin feeling hydrated, its the luxurious name attached to the beautiful packaging that drew me in. Dark masculine casing with a delicate yet bold golden flash.

I spoke to my favourite girl Mellisa at Neiman Marcus Las Vegas who gushed for this product.
And I new it was meant to be in the Modest Kit.
Shown above is Shade and Illuminate Intensity 1.
the fairest of the skin can wear either, but the darkest may have to rely on Intensity 2.
Intensity 1: has a golden base while Intensity 2 sits in the red family.
The Shade: easily blendable great looking on all skin tones
what lacks is the easy-ness to build with it. Because you can over blend,
I have had to use 1 and 2-to create a stronger blended look.
I recommend not using the same brush or fingers to use the highlighter.
The highlighter shows a gleam in the light-almost resembling the dewiness of sweat
or better put: HOT SEX. above the lip and down the nose to create a come ravage me look.

Should you buy this: Yes, its a cream contour that blends and is easy to not over use.
Where-a cream foundation may not be as forgiving and to opaque.
But: BUT: but:

TOM FORD BRUSHES: are the essence of luxury.
Want someone to love your face and hug it velvety gently butterfly kisses.
Well-than his brushes are what you need.
I purchased the blush brush: strongly packed for a dense color application and the shade and illuminate brush for control. I love them both-although the Armani Blender Brush is what I use to blend the shades together.

If your looking for a high pigment shadow: check his out too.
Everything 70$ each is what I paid.
Happy Shopping and Thank you Mellisa at Neiman Marcus Las Vegas.

THICKER STRONGER HAIR!

Winter has arrived!
Obvious? if not-send me a plane ticket to where ever you are.
My view right now-is a blanket of white snow
that blanket is a foot deep covering my car
by the way: I just got home six hours ago!
YUP!
So I am waiting for that ticket!

Winter brings along with it some hair wounds!
It loves to make your hair weak and stressed.
Winter loves to drink all the moisture from your hair and skin
Winter loves loves loves to see your ends SNAP!

BUT! The Beauty Gods came together and had a meeting
in a steam room, and hair mask followed by Bubbly and Grapes.

Here are the following items that rescue me from STRESSED hair.
Just a note:
Use them every day, or as recommended.


The Famous Two Phase One Step Treatments are amazing
time savours-they go in towel dried hair and you feel the
silky magic work instantly.
I give the Rich Repair and The Highlights Serum
a nod to amazing-because of their power.
The Rich Repair is exactly what the name says-
but it is not heavy and it wont make you oily.
The Highlights will help make actual highlights in your hair a little more sparkly.
WOOT WOOT!
They both help bounce out UV rays, and protect against dryness and hydration loss.
will only cost you 15 with any hair service.




Ahhhh finally something for the scalp/exclusively.
Moroccan Oil, Dry-No More Professional
Scalp Treatment.
in one treatment my itchy dry irritated scalp
BANISHED!
40
I saved the Best For Last!
Bumble and Bumble have created my god in a baby bottle.
Great things do come in small packages.
Two pumps before bedtime: and as the instructions say
for those of use who are really thin or fine-use twice a day.
In a week my hair strands have become thicker and stronger.
in 6 weeks-my hair has really proven that it loves this product!
MY hair doesn't grow past a certain point because it breaks:
GUESS WHAT!
It didn't break!

THIS IS THE BALM!

There comes a time in every ones life, when they start to feel like a vacuum sucked all the moisture out of their lips and replaced the what should be delicate skin with paint peeling, excruciating dry lips.

EWWWW!
These Balms should be apart of your arsenal for combating winter, signs of aging and just gross feeling lips.

Painful? yes! unsightly? Duh! Fixable and Preventable? But of course!

Here are the top three lip balms that grace my lips and any model that I come in contact with.

SHU UEMURA DEP SEA HYDRABILITY LIP BALM
25 Holt Renfrew
The ultimate balm that doesn't stop working.
This product can be worn at night as a hydrating mask for the lips.
It actually teaches your lips how to hydrate it self.
The fragrance and taste are minimal and pleasant.
medium to natural shine-safe for men.

EOS Lip Balm
http://evolutionofsmooth.com
3-5 dollars.
Those cute little guys are called the smooth spheres, although I prefer the Smooth Sticks.
Organic and gluten free, my no worry lip balm has a great taste and scent.
Also Petrolatum free-YES! FINALLY!
A lip balm that actually works with out being all jelly, and glossy.
I purchased this product at Shades Of Grey, although you can get it at shoppers drugs smart as well

Khiels Lip Balm SPF 15
http://www.holtrenfrew.com
17 dollars.
Super smooth, extreme-moisture that does seem to wear off easy.
but this little guy goes a long way the screw on lid make life easy knowing how secure it is.
High shine-that fades. So Guys need to apply a few minutes before hand because this product will shine.
The SPF is sexy, and needed especially in this time of the year when the sun is reflected on to the skin.
