Famous Ombre Lips Tutorials

Step by Step :

1. This technique is often used by some gringos makeup artists, in my opinion is an evolution of that darker lip contour lipstick, you bring attention to the main color in the center of the lips, but creates a striking and charming effect with a lateral gradient darker, much calling attention to the mouth as well demarcated boundaries.

2. Start with clean lips and prepared with the same basis as used on the face. I finished with powder foundation, as we wanted a very high coverage mainly around the mouth.

3. Following around the lips with red pencil mouth, use any of the same shade of lipstick or darker. Apply with care and attention, it is very difficult to correct contour, try to correct can damage all the preparation that has been made.

4. As it should be, avoid leaving the contour of the lips.

5. Generously apply lipstick, more love in layers to make a good cover. I used a pinkish shade of red.

6. Fully populated lips and with a good layer of lipstick.

7. With a mouth brush improved lipstick finish, as applying to the bullet you do not have good definition. You may not like all apply lipstick with a brush, but it is essential when making the finish. Apply with a steady hand, and gradually make corrections to avoid the rush to make out the outline of the lips too much and end up making mistakes, correct lipstick is very complicated, since it is the last step of makeup and you do with the skin completely makeup.

8. I began now to darken the corners of the lips with a brown pencil, if you have mouth pencil this great color, if you do not use the same eyes, I do not care. Applied in 1/4 of the lips on each side.

9. I then spent the black pencil up to half of which previously applied the brown.

10. With the same mouth brush blending brown pencil mixing it to lipstick and creating a gradient effect, then mixed the black pencil with brown pencil. During the smoky, enjoy the dirty brush with the darker pencil and continue outlining the lips, so that the contour stay subtly darker than the center of the lips.

11. I created a gradient in a way that the singer was darker. If you have a little practice, esfume first brown pencil, then apply black with brown smoky already.

Bone - Fied Nails Art Design Tutorials

Cool and adaptable for nails this Halloween, so we invited nail artist Chelsea King to the Beautylish studio to give us her take on a chic Halloween mani. She chose a skull accent nail and paired it with blood red solids to create something you could wear to a power lunch or a pumpkin patch.

The skulls take a while to create, but the four solid nails help make up for lost time. You’ll need an ultra-thin nail art brush and either a stainless steel nail palette or a piece of tin foil to act as a polish palette.

Slight imperfections are less noticeable once a top coat is applied. Be sure to paint it on the edge of the nail to prevent chipping and help your nail art last longer.

How to :Sultry , Smokey Eye Makeup Tutorials

Step by Step :

You Will Need

• Wayne Goss, The Eye Set (Brushes 16–20)
• dark brown kohl pencil
• light gold shadow (slight shimmer)
• medium and dark brown eye shadows
• mascara or falsies

1: Apply a light gold shadow with a slight shimmer to lids using Brush 18. Then place any pigment leftover on the brush right under brow bones—“You want barely a whisper of it there,” says Wayne.

2: Line eyes with a dark brown kohl pencil, including the waterline. To get the shape right and add just a bit of depth to the eye, draw an arc just above the crease as pictured, and then fill in with the pencil.

3: Go over the line you created, just above the crease, with Brush 20. Blend out toward the outer sides of the lid. With the pigment left on the brush, go under the eyes a bit (“Waste not, want not,” says Wayne).

4: Apply medium brown shadow to the crease using Brush 18: place in the crease of the eye, and brush back and forth (tip: when working on a model, Wayne usually asks her to keep her eye open during this step). At the outer edges of the crease, blend out the color by working the tip of the brush in a circular motion.

5: Continue blending and extending the pigment out with Brush 16. Place the brush into the eye socket and work in a circular motion until the color bleeds out to nothing, extending past the outer corner as pictured.

6: Use Brush 17 to press the bulk of your darkest brown shadow onto outer lids. Note, the brush will cover about half the lid.

7: Once again, blend and extend the pigment out using Brush 16.

8: Take the color underneath the eye to join up with the top using Brush 20, as pictured. Finish with lots of mascara, or falsies.

Add a full brow and call it a day!

How : 6,000 year old Eastern Practice Give you Help Perfect Skin

By all appearances, beauty entrepreneur Mally Steves Chakola was born with perfect skin. But she’s the first to admit that her smooth, glowing complexion takes work. “Because my pitta dosha can be overly dominant, I have to constantly combat inflammation,” she explains. “I use antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and botanical ingredients in my diet and beauty routine to help create my personal balance.”

Dosha? Pitta? Personal balance? With these terms, Chakola is referencing the 6,000-year-old healing practice known as Ayurveda, which she first got acquainted with as a child. Chakola’s India-born grandmother taught her how to mix botanical remedies ranging from custom oil blends for the face and body to shampoos made from naturally foaming tree bark. Now Chakola is harnessing this ancient wisdom in her skin care line M. Steves. The range includes five products—a cleanser, exfoliator, anti-aging serum, moisturizer, and dry face oil—all of which draw on Ayurvedic principles (as well as the powerful ingredient rose hip seed oil) to help you achieve a healthy glow.  

Ayurveda is based upon the idea that the five elements—air, fire, water, earth, and ether (gas)—express themselves in humans as three “doshas,” or energies, called vata, kapha, and pitta. Ayurveda seeks to bring all three into balance through dosha-specific diets, skin care regimens, and relaxation techniques. Most of us have two dominant doshas and one recessive one; this imbalance leads to health and skin issues that can run the gamut, from allergies to acne to early signs of aging (we’ll go into more detail about each dosha below).  

Ayurvedic recommendations are before their time—advocating healthy lifestyle choices like drinking lots of water, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep to keep skin looking youthful. And of course, the practice advocates for a healthy diet. Chakola suggests incorporating enzyme- and antioxidant-rich foods like papaya, live-culture yogurts, and turmeric to aid in digestion and fight premature aging. But, according to Chakola, lifestyle changes alone aren’t enough to counteract an imbalance. So she showed us how to identify your dominant doshas and shared the best Ayurveda-inspired beauty treatments for each.
