Eyes Lips Face (E.L.F)

Believe it or not this happens to be my very first purchase of E.L.F products. I think that up to now I have dismissed the brand partly due to the pricing, assuming that such a purse friendly brand would probably not be able to deliver anything special or that the pigmentation just wouldn't be up to par.

Despite the low prices, I decided to play it safe and only placed a tiny order just so that I could get the idea of what E.L.F products are all about.

Here's what I got:

6 Easy Steps To a Perfect Home Pedicure

There is nothing I enjoy more than a relaxing DIY pedicure on the weekend. It feels so luxuriant and pampering no to mention your feet will look sandal ready. A good pedicure can’t be rushed, can’t be hastily performed which is exactly the reason it is so indulgent. There are a few steps to make a pedicure truly pleasurable and lasting. Follow these steps and you too will be walking on gorgeous feet.

1 Soak It Up
Saturate a cotton ball with nail polish remover and remove old nail polish from your toenails. Gently press the cotton ball on the nail for a moment to soften the colour before wiping the nail to remove the polish. Fill a tub or bucket with warm water to soak your feet. You can add essential oils to the water for the fragrance; Rosemary and Peppermint to invigorate, lavender and Rose to relax or Tea Tree oil and Pine to help banish odours and infections. Another indulgence that I love is to add milk to the water which naturally exfoliates the skin and keeps it moist. The best thing is that it’s right in your fridge!

How To Clean Your Makeup Brushes

When’s the last time you brushed your teeth? Now think about when the last time was when you cleaned your makeup brushes. Cleaning our makeup brushes after use probably isn’t on the top of every woman’s “must do” list. As a matter of fact, a lot of women allow their makeup brushes to get to the point where they clean them only when the makeup is caked on (FYI: this is far past the point of when the brushes should have been cleaned!).
Makeup brushes contain bacteria which, if not cleaned, will only continue to build and build to the point where you may be doing a lot of damage to your skin. It’s essential that makeup brushes are cleaned and disinfected on a daily basis; otherwise you may be faced with a lot of skin and health issues.

Correct, Conceal, Set It, And Forget It

Many moons ago, when I was a fresh-faced beauty assistant, Bobbi Brown hosted an event to introduce those of us on the lowest end of the totem pole to her famed concealer—and presumably hook us at the get-go. It worked, obviously, and I’ve been a fan of her under-eye-brightening, spot-correcting miracle workers ever since. I never really thought they needed

Bobbi Brown For Dress For Success

Bobbi Brown isn’t in the business of painting faces just for pretty’s sake. Anyone who has read her tomes on the subject is well aware of the Brown diktat that cosmetics are a power tool—a way to help you not only look good, but feel good, too. It should come as no surprise, then, that she’s a tireless supporter of Dress for Success. A nonprofit organization committed to

MAC’s Cute Overload

Over the past few years, the idea of seasonal makeup has been thrown out the window. Peter Philips famously put creamy jade green nail polish on Chanel’s Fall 2009 runway, and François Nars likewise bucked convention by showing a deep burgundy lip for Spring at Marc Jacobs last season. If you ask us, though, there’s nothing like pastels to properly usher in the warmer

Lips That Say, “Some Day My Prince Will Come”

With the royal nuptials growing ever closer (April 29, in case you’ve somehow managed to avoid the worldwide media blitz), plenty of brands are rushing engagement ephemera onto shelves. That navy Issa wrap dress and stunning sapphire and diamond ring the bride wore to the couple’s press conference announcing their plans to wed will be forever enshrined in the annals of fashion history—and just as eternally knocked off. But Butter London, the lacquer brand known for its nontoxic formulas, innovative runway looks , and quirky polish names, was way ahead of the game. Way back in January, it announced the launch of a new sparkly amethyst lacquer, dubbed No More Waity Katie. This month, in an effort to get while the getting’s still good, Butter is debuting a limited-edition lip gloss of the same name. Its first foray into the world of makeup, the shine product is the same shade as its polish counterpart—sheer lilac with tiny flecks of lavender glitter—and likewise contains no parabens, petroleum, or sulfates for what Butter founder Nonie Crème calls a “glossy greige” finish. Pucker up.
