Burt’s Bee’s Sensitive Night Cream

Burt’s Bee’s Sensitive Night Cream Review Skin care is something super important if you want to A. Have great skin and B. Have great makeup; so it makes sense to use a product which benefits the skin. After all, every one want’s to look great with and without the help of makeup. Burt’s Bee’s claims that there sensitive night cream provides moisture to the skin for 8 hours without causing redness or irritation. Does it do that? Well sort of… When I use a moisturiser or more specifically a night cream I like to use something that absorbs into the skin almost instantly so I don’t have to worry about product transferring onto pillows, clothing, etc and that’s one thing that I truly love about this product.

The scent of this is lovely and subtle, too often I’ve tried a moisturiser only to f

Powder Tips/ Skin Care Tips

Use loose powder to set makeup and compact powder for easy touch-ups during the day or night. For excessively oily skin, use Translucent Ultra Matte Powder. For warmer climates or in the summer, take special care to set your foundation with a loose powder, as heat tends to create slipping or running of your foundation. This is especially so in the case of cream foundation as they tend to have a higher oil content. Set your foundations with a Sacha Cosmetics Loose Powder. Keep your compact powder handy for touch ups during the day. If you 'shine' a lot you should use an oil absorbent powder such as Sacha's Ultra Matte Powders in L ight, Medium or Dark. Dust a light layer of pressed powder over the face. A pressed powder with an SPF 15 that includes the UVA-protecting ingredients avobenzone, titanium dioxide, or zinc oxide is an excellent option to assure all day sun protection. Too much color? Most makeup artists dust on a layer of loose powder or pre

My father was a salon owner/hair dresser and for a time, my mother was a manicurist in Los Angeles, where I was raised. As a teenager, my own struggle with skin problems left me searching for my place in the world. At seventeen I received a graduation present from my aunt: a makeover at a Beverly Hills salon. It was this makeover that literally changed my life. I'll never forget how incredible the makeup artist made me feel and how beautiful I looked.

That single life-altering experience led me first to beauty school at the age of nineteen and then to my first job, as fate would have it, at the ve

Asian Eye Makeup Tips
