Holiday Make-Up Tip

Happy Thanksgiving Make-Up Addicts,

Sorry, I know it has been a while since my last post. With the holidays already here things have gotten a little crazy, but I can't forget about you all so I have to give you a little holiday make-up tip.

With the holidays finally here we are looking for new looks to wear and fun holiday makeup to play with, but keep this in mind.

1) When applying eyeshadow always start with a good primer and base as this is going to set the foundation of your look.

2) Remember to use at least one matte color on your eyes to add depth and texture.

3) Always leave room under your brow for a highlight color.

4) Groom your eyebrows and eyelashes as this makes a huge difference in the final product.

5) And finally, have fun with all the new holiday makeup out there, no look is out of reach!!!

I hope you all find this tip useful as you prepare your Turkey Day look!!! Stay healthy, stay beautiful, and definitely stay addicted to make-up!

Make-up Tip of the Week

Hi Make-Up Addicts,

I hope you all have been enjoying the looks I have been posting. I have been getting requests to post some "how to" videos so be on the lookout for those.

So I have yet another makeup tip for all you makeup addicts out there! For longer lasting lip color and to prevent your lip liner from bleeding apply a small amount of either concealer or foundation to your lips before you apply your lip color. This will prevent the lip liner from bleeding as well as keep your lip color in place longer.

Part 2 of the tip: When you apply your lip color use a brush and blend the lip liner in so when your color begins to fade you have an even fade and not a harsh lip liner line with no lip color!

I hope you all find this tip helpful! Stay healthy, stay beautiful and definitely stay addicted to make-up!

Singed,

Make-up Addict

Make-Up Tip

Hi Makeup Addicts,

I hope you are all checking out the site and enjoying all the blogs! So here is my tip of the week! If you do not have one already, I recommend you go out and invest in a white eyeliner. Yes ladies that's right a white eyeliner!

I know it sounds crazy but here is how you use it. On a day where concealer is just not cutting it and you had way too much fun the night before and it shows...throw some white eyeliner on your waterline and your eyes will open and look gorgeous and bright! I'll try to post a look so you can see the difference, but truly this is a great tip that most do not know!

Well, I hope you all enjoyed the tip of the week. Stay tuned for more pics, blogs and ideas...stay healthy, stay beautiful, and definitely stay addicted to makeup!

I know I haven't posted a new look, but I will be posting one very shortly. My Halloween look was my interpretation of Poison Ivy. I did a very dramatic green and brown eye, with bright green eyelashes. I will be posting the pics either tonight or tomorrow night so stay tuned. I hope you all had a great Halloween weekend! Stay healthy, stay beautiful, and definitely stay addicted to makeup!
