Tutorial: Perfect Smokey Eye Step by Step

Nov 22, 2009 - This tutorial is for a very dramatic smokey eye that is basically black. It is considered sultry, sexy, and some might refer to it as the “Victoria Secret Model” look.   You will need the following products: a matte black base (Blacktrack fluidline), a matte black powder eyeshadow (Carbon eyeshadow), a matte highlight that’s similar to your skintone (Performance eyeshadow), another matte highlight that’s similar to your skintone, but darker than the one before (Malt eyeshadow), a black eye kohl (Graphblack technakohl, Blacktrack fluidline) and [optionally] a shimmery silver or black eyeshadow if you want a shimmery look (Silver Ring eyeshadow).   MAC is what I use, but any cosmetic line you use is fine - using similar colors. - 2 Comments

Beauty Tip of the Day

Nov 22, 2009 - I get a lot of questions about how I keep my locks healthy and shiny.  Easy. And cheap.   Once a week and sometimes more (If I have more than one day off from work): I put a dab of extra virgin olive oil in the palm of my hands, gently rub palms together and scrunch into hair (middle of hair shaft down to the ends) and comb through with a wide tooth comb.  Just let the natural oil soak into your hair for the day or do this at night, wrap ends of hair and sleep away. - 3 Comments
