Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil Rosewood. $17 at Sephora
Changing the color you line your lips with will instantly update your look. If you’ve been wearing those amazing brights this summer, change your lip pencil to a darker hue and work it into the brighter lipstick to give it a darker or dirtier cast — this will mute it and make it fall-wearable.
I just found some brilliant Makeup Forever waterproof lip liners at Sephora. They’re worth a try, and stay on all day, and help you have a worry free wedding day. $17
Or, try Clinique Quickliner for Lips in Crushed Berry or Bamboo, $14.

Before
I think this is excellent advice contributed by artist Pamela Jeschonek to the “Article” section of www.wedalert.com:
“…Ask any experienced Makeup Artist: the best makeup application in the world will not look its best if you have unmanaged eyebrows. The correct eyebrow shape can balance the face, make your eyes look larger and take years off your look.The trend right now is a natural, well-groomed eyebrow–a little thicker than in the recent past, but well-defined and soft. Gone are the days of pencil-thin eyebrows with a severe arch. Fairytale princesses had full, rounded eyebrows that gave them a soft, youthful, innocent look. Their wicked counterparts had severe, thin, highly arched brows that made them look mean, old and harsh. Definitely not the best look for a blushing bride!”

The end of October is fast approaching which means National Breast Cancer Awareness Month is coming to a close as well. With that in mind, here’s a great deal Nordstrom is offering online only: get a free full-size Sparkle Eyeshadow in “Mica” ($24 retail) when you purchase $75 of Bobbi Brown makeup. Here’s an easy way (as if you needed it) to rack up a quick $40 towards your product total and it’s for a good cause: Snap up Bobbi’s “Pink Ribbon” lip duo. “In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Bobbi has created a beautiful lip set featuring an exclusive new shade of Creamy Lip Color and a limited-edition Glitter Lip Balm. To create added awareness of this special cause, the Pink Ribbon logo has been screened on the Glitter Lip Balm package. Set comes in a pink carton. Included shades: Blush Pink Creamy Lip Color and Pink Crystal Glitter Lip Balm”. And the best part is that your purchase contributes to Bobbi’s donation to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
p.s. The Sparkle Shadows are very pretty and will add a subtle shimmery sparkle to your face. I like them better than her Metallic Shadows which can be more obvious. Remember that overt metallics in your makeup choices tend to reflect the camera’s flash which doesn’t translate well to photos.

Pastels for Spring/Summer 2010
Spring and Summer
2010 brides…
Fashion Week just wrapped up in NYC & I am in love with the pastel beauty trend for spring…it is perfect for bridal.
Pastels can work for any bride, but remember to choose the right shade and intensity. The darker your skin, the deeper the pastels need to be or they will look “gray” and ashy on your skin. In fact, when your skin is warmer (slightly tanned) in the spring and summer it is easier to wear these shades. And sticking to one shade at a time will keep you from looking like a little girl who got into her mother’s makeup. Anyone else have nightmare memories of blue/silvery shades in plastic compacts, sponge tipped applicators and 8th grade school pictures in which they look like Endora from Bewitched….well don’t you worry. The latest beauty looks from the runway showcase spring’s pastels as “saturated” colors that have depth and sophistication.
EYES
For light to medium skin tones, I have found that Bobbi Brown’s Long Wear cream shadow in “Ballet Pink” really illuminates the eye and is perfect for day by itself. Then all you need to do is intensify your eyeliner and head out to a night on the town. For a darker skin tone, try Bobbi Brown’s powder shadow in deeper, richer shades like ”naked” or “black plum”. Bobbi’s metallics offer some beautiful color options ranging from lilacs for lighter skin tones, to “After Hours,” a deep chocolate mauve. Just don’t do too much shimmer for photography-it will look shiny because it reflects the flash.
I will always be a fan of black eyeliner-I have gone through my phases with colors like navy and purples, but I always come back to tried and true black. For those of you who want a lighter liner there are so many options out there, and Bobbi’s Gel Liners do not disappoint. Try “Black Plum Ink” or “Indigo Ink”. Or you could line the top lid with black, and the bottom with a brown smudged softer line.
LIPS
For a pretty pastel lip there are hundreds of options. It is fun, easy and relatively inexpensive to update your look with lip products. We all know how purchasing a pretty new lipstick changes your day without breaking the bank.
Bobbi Brown’s Brightening Gloss in all four pastel colors is amazing when you put it on…it looks like there is a slight glow to the bottom half of your face. The reflection also amplifies your lips because it reflects light.
