Sigma Eyeshadow Palettes - NEW Slim Packaging!

See the Sigma Makeup Coupons » page for the full list of Sigma Coupons.

Finally, Sigma has reduced the weight and size of their eyeshadow palettes. If you remember my Sigma eyeshadow review from earlier last year, you'll know that the palette lost some heavy points for their bulky packaging. I'm just glad that Sigma took everyone's advice and reduced the size. It could save us the trouble and some shipping fees too.

Sadly, I already bought a few of the "bulky" packaging so I'm stuck with them for now. These new slim designs do have me salivating a little though. Finally, something I can carry in my handbag for convenient travel.

Makeup Ideas for Girls Who Wear Glasses

Makeup for Glasses
Image courtesy of CND.
Glasses wearers like to wear fun makeup too. As I have worn glasses for a good part of my life, I get that. It's difficult to not feel a little geeky in glasses sometimes, but here are some good tips that'll keep you looking your best:

Try to use neutral colors and avoid too much glitter or shine. According to Bobbi Brown, "Wearing glasses draws plenty of attention to your eyes, so it’s best to keep your eye makeup simple. Stick to neutral shades on the eyes but remember to blend a darker color into your crease for added definition. Save the bright, bold colors for lips."

How to wear foundation that is too light or dark for you

Most of us have done it: We see a foundation, fall in love and impulsively order it without matching the correct shade. Maybe there is no correct shade or maybe your skin color is drastically different throughout the year. Regardless, here are some things you can do with foundation that is not quite your color:

1. Perhaps the easiest thing to do with a foundation that does not match is to mix it with another one. I mix a good majority of my foundations throughout the year. My Bare Escentuals foundation is way too golden for me, so I brush it over a lot of my warmer foundations.

Beauty Post: My Secret

www.jadore-fashion.com
I receive emails and comments almost everyday asking me aboutwhat beauty products do I use, so as an answer to all those questions received andthough I don't consider myself the best in this cosmetic world at all, here Ibring you a post speaking about my everyday make-up products that I use--My secret!

I love to try out new things, but the truth is that I usejust a few of them. I normally wear a very natural make-up--I want it to be as simple as possible.


www.jadore-fashion.com

A lot of you that follow my blog probably know how much I love red lipstick. Of all makeup items, I am  a tiny bit obsessed with lipsticks. Beside my obsession with my MAC RubyWoo (red) lipstick, I can't get enough of my purple Make For Forever Lipstick and NARS Schiap (fuschia)

Jouer Liquid Shimmer Eyeliner in Fox and Dusty Lipstick Swatches and Review

"It is chic, simple and designed to be the perfect fit for anytime and any occasion."

Jouer Cosmetics Liquid Shimmer Eyeliner in Fox ($22)

Jouer Liquid Shimmer Eyeliners were released earlier this year as a part of their Mad About Fall 2011 Collection. Each shade in this eyeliner collection contains subtle shimmers for exciting, yet wearable looks. These eyeliners contain Vitamins A and E and are completely paraben-free. The formula is water-base, which means it takes a minute or two to dry - but also means the eyeliner is gentle on the eyes and is easy to remove. I've worn this navy charcoal eyeliner for 6+ hours without even a smudge.

Jouer Cosmetics Hydrating Lipstick in Dusty ($22) is not a true nude, but a natural color with a great hint of dusty rose.

The Hydrating Lipstick in Dusty is quite true to its name. It feels extremely moisturizing upon application. It doesn't hydrate and protect your lips like a lip balm does, but there is no need for lip balm while you're wearing the actual lipstick. The color is beautiful: not a pale nude, but more of a natural beige tone. The end result is like my lips, but lighter, dustier, and so much smoother.

Swatches of Fox (a navy charcoal), Dusty (natural nude)

Shimmery eyes and nude lips can make for a great Fall statement. How do you like to pair your shimmers and nudes?

Anastasia Beauty Express For Brows and Eyes Review

The Anastasia Beauty Express kit contains all you will ever need for your brows. This set comes in two colors: blonde and brunette. I was fortunate enough to receive the brunette set to test out.

Eyebrow Kit
Brow Wax Cream, Brow Powder Duo, Eyeshadow Duo, Stencils, Angled Brush

I have been testing the Beauty Express kit out for weeks and find myself extremely impressed with it. The wax along with the powders really help keep the color on all day. Mixing the duo ensures that the color comes out natural looking. The eyeshadows included aren't too shabby either as they are perfect for a neutral look. The stencils are really useful for beginners, though they tend to be longer than I like. The brush is a good one as it is stiff and perfectly angled. 

Anastasia Beauty Express
Anastasia Beverly HillsBeauty Express For Brows and Eyes in Brunette

This kit is an improvement over the Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zing, although its size makes it less ideal for traveling. And priced at $39.50, this can be a steep investment for your brows. Consider it if you are having troubles getting your brows just right. The Beauty Express is available at Sephora, Ulta, or Anastasia's website.
