Viva La Cosmetics

  Pressed powder, matte, powder to cream, loose powder, mineral, and liquid are all different types of concealer, foundation, blush, and bronzing . Each type has a different purpose and works different for each person. From all the different brands that are out in the market, I personally represent MAC Cosmetics and L'Oreal Cosmetics. Not trying to play any favorites, but the feeling from both lines make the perfect face.
  Since I was 12 years old, I have always used a pressed powder for overall coverage, but when mineral makeup became available by my favorite companies, my choices changed. Mineral makeup by L'Oreal comes in almost every shade and leaves a flawless base. As for bronzer, which can be used instead of foundation , MAC provides a pressed powder. Bronzing Powder by MAC comes in four shades that blend into the skin to create the perfect look.Oh, did I forget to mention Sephora's Lorac TANtalizer? For a deeper, tanner look, try TANtalizer by Lorac. It feels like a cream, but it is a powder. This comes in 2-3 shades to cater to the desired look. For a sophisticated, darker, more mature look, TANtalizer is the road to go!


*For any powder foundation or bronzer, I recommend using a Kabuki brush, or any larger powder brush.

Finding The Perfect Simple Look
  • Apply a light coat of foundation to be followed by bronzing powder or blush
  • Using a natural eyeliner (brown or black), line the bottom eyelid twice, once in each direction
  • Apply a light coat of clear or a natural mascara
  • Apply a single layer of desired "Surf, Baby!" lip gloss
  • Grab sandals or heels and you're ready to go!
