Are you looking for a jet black liner for your waterline? Something that stays put all day? Well this is what I recommend...Inglot's AMC Eyeliner Gel. It has been my fave for years and is the only liner, so far, that does not come off. It is the blackest black(if that makes sense). I use an angle brush to apply it and I also use it with lashes(to mask the lash strip). There are many colors to choose from! You can purchase it at any Inglot store, Macy's, and online www.inglotcosmetics.com 😉
Smashbox Artificial Light Luminizing Lotion
Last Friday I had the pleasure of working with Nickayla Rivera. It was the second time I painted her flawless face. I created a soft sunkissed look with a beautiful glow. The glow was achieved with Smashbox's Artificial Light Luminizing Lotion in "Glow." I applied this to her body as well. If you want to soften the glow you can mix it with some lotion as well. I personally love the golden affect it gives off! PERFECTION!!!!
Makeup For Ever Creamliner
If you follow my work, you know that I love a clean black cat eye! I love using a black liquid eyeliner but I have a new found love for brown eyeliner. My fave is the Makeup For Ever Creamliner in Matte Brown(Shade 2). I use an angled synthetic eyeliner brush #262. When using this brush, you can achieve a clean, fine line. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The creamliner looks beautiful with a soft smokey eye. Sometimes I love to create a cat eye and sometimes I prefer a blended liner. Here are some looks I have created with the liner.
You can find Makeup For Ever products at Sephora or online at www.makeupforever.com

Peter Thomas Roth Anti-Shine Mattifying Gel
Have you noticed how shiny your skin may be lately? Are you trying to find something to minimize shine on your face? If you are a makeup artist or a consumer looking to create a shine free look for a bride, on set, or for a long busy work day, you need to try this! This will minimize pores as well as keep your skin matte. I like to use it on the the T-Zone for my clients that tend to get more oily. It's one thing to be dewy and another to be greasy looking! This product is oil-free and is a gel base. You can purchase this product at Sephora.
Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil
Those of you that know me, know how much I love a red, bold lip. I especially love a matte red, bold lip. If you want your lip color to stay on with very little touch-ups, you are going to love what I am sharing with you today....Wait for it....Wait for it....Ta-daaaaaaa! The Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil. If you have not tried these yet, you are definitely missing out. I use them daily. I don't have time to retouch my own lipstick when I am busy painting everyone else's pretty face. ;)
This color in particular is the latest addition to the Nars family. "Mysterious Red"
Dragon Girl is a brighter Red with a Pink tone to it.
Cruella is a rich deep red. Super Sexy!
Damned is one of my favorite of all wine tones!
