ARE CHANGINING YOUR PAD?

I Knew That Tittle Would Get Your Attention......


I read a tweet today that asked, "When was the last time you changed your eyelash curler pad?" And i thought to myself, i don't, I just buy a new one, or two....


 I have maybe like 6 eyelash curlers in my kit, like I said already, I just buy a new one, and when I work with a specific  actress, i have one that i only use on them. But if you take care of your lash curler and gently wipe and clean the rubber pad with warm water , no chemicals near the eyes! after every time you use it, the pad should last you up to six months.

As for the Actual lash curler, I use The amazing Shu Uemura  brand, I just love it and I  see it in most artist makeup kits ~ just try not to just toss it in your bag, place it in a case or if packing it in a kit, keep it in the box, it will help prolong the life of the curler and try not to drop it, like tweezers, when you drop them way to often, they loose suspension and they just don't work that great after awhile.

I found that you do actually get a  much better curl if you replace the pad, the older pads seem to break down and leave an indent by the pressure of the metal  pressing against it. Believe me, I have seen people cut their lashes right off, after a while if you don't change the pad, it can create a slit in the rubber  that's not noticeable and then its, chop chop lashes! So its in your best interest to get new pads. 2 for $6.00. cheaper then wearing false lashes everyday right?

My All Time Favorite!!! MUST HAVE!





Are You Doing It Right? How To Do Blush


    • How To Apply Your Blush (in case you didn't already know)

      Select a color of blush that resembles the natural glow of your cheeks after you exercise. Consider having a lighter color for day, and a darker tone for a more dramatic evening look. Keep your blush in the same color family as your lipstick.
    • Consider the type of blush best suited to your skin type. Cream blush works very well for drier skin, as it can help to keep skin hydrated. Powder blush is better suited to oily skin.
    • Complete the application of foundation, powder and all eye makeup before applying blush.
    • Use a full, round brush for the application of your powder blush, as it will make for a softer and more professional look than the brush that comes with the blush. This should not be the same brush you use to apply your loose powder.

    • Place a small amount of blush on the brush and gently tap off any excess. Or, place a small amount of cream on your middle finger.

    • Look in the mirror and smile.

    • Place powder blush on the apple of your cheek and gently brush up your cheekbone toward your hairline. Dot cream blush beginning at the apple, and gently blend up the cheekbone toward the hairline.
    • Focus your blush at the outside of your face near your hairline if you have a fuller face. For high cheekbones, concentrate blush in the center of your face to accentuate your bones.
    • Blend a little blush down your cheek for a little more natural, less dramatic look.
      And remember these are just the simple techniques, i suggested that you try different  looks and styles to find what visually your comfortable with. There are now rules, just try to prevent doll cheeks. 

      Mykie Tip:  For a rosier cheek, consider a gel or liquid tints. and remember to wash your hands really good after using these products, they can stain rather easy.

      Try to remember the lighter your skin tone, the lighter your blush color should be.

      Wash  your brushed with a makeup remover or non soap cleaners.
      And avoid following the underside of your cheekbones. which makes for an artificial and not so pretty look, Just saying...

TARTE/ Cheek Stain In Tickled
This is my all time favorite cheek stain, ok, in the beginning I was so afraid of using a cheek stain, i was like how do i make this  work? Well, I got passed it, and i use a smaller sized blush brush, and i use it a lil' damp. This is a staple for me.  just ask Brooke Burns.. TARTE/SEPHORA


NARS/Orgasam Blush
The one the only , still the best! A perfect color application every time.

SMASHBOX/ Radiance Blush
I have been in love with this color since the first time I got it in a goodie bag from Lori Taylor at Smashbox. I use this on Brooke Burns all the time. It's bright and very vibrant,but it's controllable color, and wears well with other products.
