Happy New Year!

Often when January rolls around again we women turn to thoughts of self improvement.  Going to the gym ascends to #1 on the priority list,  healthy snacking becomes a new, positive option, & therefore bad habits are gradually replaced by better ones and on and on.  Most often, self improvement starts with a change in the way we think resulting in the desired physical changes.

I believe that easily achievable, small changes on the outside can affect change by keeping you on that positive track.

• A quick glance in the mirror as you rush through the day can really be uplifting when you see that indeed, the dark circles that have always bothered you have been lessened and improved with a new concealer you finally tried. I loveBobbi Brown’s miraculous correctors and concealers. You can even chat with an artist while you’re online if you have questions or need help.
• A brightening shade of lipstick and gloss can brighten up your face and your mood.
• A blue/red or blue based pink lipstick makes your teeth automatically look whiter.  Wearing a shade like this can help you get through the weeks it takes for those Crest White strips to kick in!  Here’s an informative piece about one woman’s journey through the daunting world of red lipsticks.
• Have you ever tried filling in your eye brows? Your eyebrows frame your face. Subtly filling them in with a shadow and brush highlights your eyes and subtly transforms your face.
• Have you recently given up smoking and want to get rid of that dull cast to your skin? Or how about sun spots and freckles that you’ve been wishing would disappear?  Get to the makeup counter right now.  The new brightening products do really work & can make your skin look years younger.  Remember to look for products containing sunscreen.
• Lifeless locks?  Next time you go to your hair stylist why not try highlights?  They can add shine and body to your hair as well as a glow to your face.

So what has been bothering you about your beauty routine? I’ll bet you can fix them more easily than you think.

Most concerns can very easily be remedied with the help of a makeup artist like me or by talking to an aesthetician.

What do you have to lose?

It’s worth a try…and don’t forget that makeup washes off!
