Great Skin.....Great Makeup ;)

Part of your daily routine should include using a moisturizer with a SPF (sun protection factor). By protecting your skin with a SPF moisturizer, you're not only safer from skin cancer but your skin will often look younger than your age.

Many of these formulas also contain antioxidants that prevent damage from the sun's rays and also protect the rest of your body from aging and disease.


SPF moisturizers not only protect your skin from the sun they also protect you from air pollution and other harmful environmental elements.

You'll have smoother, younger looking skin when you use a moisturizer with SPF.

My recommendation if you spend most of your day outdoors you should use a moisturizer with SPF 35 to 80.

If you don't spend a lot of time outdoors use a moisturizer with SPF 15 to 35.



Here are some of my personal recommendations, Ive used all of these and love them all... remember you don't need to spend a lot of money, these range from $10 to $30.

Spring 2010!!!

Colorful makeup is a hot makeup trend for Spring 2010.


Shades of pastels green, blue, hot pink, yellow and purple add a lot of fun and look fresh for spring 2010!

Spring is all about the pastels and peach lips ! It’s different from the usual pinks and reds to make you stand out but not too bold that you look like a clown or Lady Gaga in the office ! lol (don’t get me wrong - I love Lady Gaga - but hers is a look especially for stage.


Here are some looks....


This is a very dramatic Spring look, this green looks beautiful in any skin color, try "Shimmermoss" from MAC one of my favorites! line with black liner and nude lips..

Yellow is very "IN" this Spring, since yellow is a very light shade, you can make your makeup stand out with some hot pink lips ;)

I love this pastel purple! is edgy and trendy... try it with nude lips.

Heres a look that not a lot of people can pull off, but Christina can! of course! she has some pastels blue, pink and white, kind of like an easter egg look lol If you go for this look make sure you dont put too much or try 2 colors first ;)
