Beauty Board on Film

Beauty Board: 10/25/09 from Justin Borja on Vimeo.

Just wanted to share with you the latest video from Black Suits & Broken Hearts.

I asked Justin Borja to be on hand for the BlushPretty Beauty Board event this past October 25, 2009 so that he could capture all the fun on film and then turn it into a rockstar video! And that he did ...

Now you can see in live action what goes on!

Enjoy!

The Top 5 ...

... things you must buy ... or should consider buying ...from The Blush Boutique:

DaLish Blush & Highlighter Duo, a flush colour for the cheeks and a highlighter for overall glow

Principessa Pleasantly Pafutto Lip Glosses, fours shades of flattering pink perfect for everyday

Cake Beauty Refreshing Body & Hair Powder, refresh that bedhead with this sweet smelling powder

Crazy Rumors Gourmet Lip Balm in Bubble Gum, the taste of bubble gum always brings back memories

Butter London 3-Free Nail Polish in Yummy Mummy, it looks like a neutral colour, but really looks chic and sophisticated

On This Day I Wore ...

January 31, 2009 – I'm currently using a mix of products to brighten up my face in the morning. I started with a bit of facial moisturizer. Once that set in, I dabbed on some Simply Ageless Colour Corrector mostly under the eyes. I then dusted on my Laura Mercier Mineral Pressed Powder - which is great. (Mineral powder does need to be blended in well, so double check over ridges and hollows in the face since mineral powder can look streaky here.) I swept on my fave blush: MAC Cream Blush in So Sweet, So Easy. I took two colours from my NARS Essential Eye Palette, Nepal and Ondine, and smoked it up from the lashline. I finished with two coats of my Max Factor Mascara.

The People Love ...

… Cake Beauty Milk Made Smoothing Hand and Cuticle Butter. This at-home spa like treatment was a hit at the last beauty board and everyone claimed that it did leave their hands super soft and silky. A little messy to use - yes - but the end result was totally worth it. Available now at the BlushPretty e-boutique!

My Brides are Wearing ...

… the Taylor Swift side chignon This has been the most popular and most requested hairstyle. In many variations, this particular soft updo looks great on all face shapes and with all styles of wedding dress. The best way to dress this up: with a floral hairpiece. Tucked right into the chignon, its a classic and pretty touch!

Did you know ...

… that you can apply your cream blush with a powder brush instead? And you don't have to smile when you apply it either? I got to meet with Greg Wencel last month and he showed me a great new way to apply cream blush. Swirl your brush over your cream colour and then dust it on in a circular motion over the cheekbones. This results in a nicely diffused wash of colour - very natural. It gradually fades the colour towards the temples too. As for the not smiling, while its great for getting the"apples of your cheek - be careful! Once you stop smiling, your cheeks drop a bit which means so will the colour - you might end up with blush that's applied to far down the face!

Have you tried ...

... Butter London Nail Polishes? They pride themselves on their 3-Free Nail polishes. 3-Free stands for "No Formaldehyde, No toluene, and No DBP (Phthales)". Ever. This nail polish brand is all fashion and rock and roll with so many hot colours from Yummy Mummy to Fash Pack to La Moss. By the way ... Butter London will be available at The Blush Boutique in late February!

I Just Can't Live Without My ...

... MAC Blush in So Sweet, So Easy. In the pot, it's a really, REALLY, bright pink. Just like candy. But when I sweep it on, it becomes this nice, soft and flirty blush. It's the perfect pink for my skintone. I swish this colour around from the apples of the cheeks up to the temples. I wear it alone most of the time, but when I have an extra 30 seconds, I also use it over a bit of bronzer. This is currently my go-to blush for the winter and definitely for spring ... and then maybe even summer ...

And I Just Bought ...

... NARS Powder Foundations . I actually didn't "buy" these! I received seven colours of this great powder foundation from a former bride/now yoga friend (thank you ms. marcelo-domingo). It's a lightweight formula providing flexible coverage and SPF 12 protection. It covers imperfections without looking cakey! I'm really excited to use this on my brides. A light layer will set the face nicely.

Scene & Heard

"I really believe that so much of how we look is a reflection of how we feel. When I see pictures of my grandmother when she was 40, I think, Wow, she looked old! And that's because she believed she was old; its shows in the way she dressed and behaved. The one thing to remember is that regardless of your age, you should never turn away from sexuality. And that's no Bull___."

Demi Moore's answer to her discovery of the fountain of youth from Beauty Talk in InStyle Magazine, January 2010.
