I get so many inquires about eye shadow applications, well heres the key to an even, harmonic eye shadow application…….BLEND, BLEND, BLEND! Blending is key to avoid the harsh lines that form, when you place a color without blending out where the color actually stops.  Blending also offers a smooth transition to a new color when using multiple colors.  Biggest tip- take it slow, load your brush with eye shadow (less is best), place your color on your eyelid, then BLEND!  #shawnaelizabeth #makeupstudio #lovethyblending

concealer, eye cream, eye serum, make-up

Ladies, if it’s a must to wear concealer under your eyes, to conceal darkness, or to brighten , then an eye cream or eye serum, or both, to prep the eye is a MUST!  Because of the purpose of concealers (to cover), some are naturally heavier in coverage and have more opaque pigment.  Some full coverage concealers are even drier in texture.  So if your eye area is not moisturized before you apply your favorite full coverage concealer, you might end up with pronounced fine lines and texture under your eyes.  To reduce the appearance of dark circles, fine lines and texture under the eyes, I recommend you apply a serum and eye cream before you apply your concealer, especially for the ladies that love a full coverage concealer.  The goal is to hydrate and treat the eye area before you conceal.  A luminous and well hydrated eye area gives the appearance of a healthy and younger eye.  Who doesn’t want to look young? Get an eye serum and eye cream….please!

fall 2015, marsala

Fall 2015 presents deep, rich pigmented colors at it’s finest!  Some old, some new but all full of color.  What will your fall color palette look like?  According to Pantone, the 2015 color of the year is …..Marsala.  What color is Marsala? In my opinion, Marsala is a special cocktail of burnt orange, bronze and a hit of cranberry.  It represents both warmth and strength at the same time.  This fall the reports predict lots of marsala, bordeaux, chocolate brown, eggplant, the traditional red/ wine lip color and winged out eye liner.  A girl has a menu of options to choose from.  So I ask again,  what will your fall palette look like?  Check out the make-up and color inspiration below:Pantone-Colour-of-the-Year-2015Marsala_Pantone_2015_Color_of_the_YearPantone-Color-of-2015-Marsala fall_makeup_trend002 fall_winter_2013_2014_makeup_trends_dark_lips Fall-Makeup-Trends-collage Makeup-Trends-Fall-Winter-2013-2014-8 Makeup-Trends-Fall-Winter-2013-2014-21    xembedded_bold-colored-eyeshadow-trend_jpg_pagespeed_ic_shdQDgyvhvUDVEJZw2WT

make-up, makeup book, museum

I finally feel close enough to one of my dreams to share it, (……drumroll).  For over a year and a half I have been working on a make-up artistry book, Rouge Opera.  Rouge Opera is a book that highlights make-up art as a museum style artform.  The book will take you through a tour of a Make-up Museum, Rouge Opera.  You will find models framed and used as a canvas for make-up art.  You will also find tips and tricks in a Beauty Archives section.  Rouge Opera will also focus on  the art of storytelling, and how it is the key ingredient in all make-up applications.  Rouge Opera could not be possible without the Principal Photographer of Inije Photography & Films, Charlton Inije.  This photgrapher played a huge role in this project because you will tour Rouge Opera through, his eyes, his lens.  Rouge Opera will display the marriage of two major arts, Make-up & Photography Art.

The goal of Rouge Opera is simple…just to inspire!  Inspire the hidden artist in all of us…and hopefully unlock the part of you where all your creative thoughts, dreams and aspirations are stored.  I am still dreaming……..Rouge Opera will be launched in FALL 2013!

Sneak Peek!…behind the scenes
