BEAUTY MUST HAVE: LIving Proof Prime Style Extender

 

Let’s face it ladies; sometimes we wish we had the tools to elongate our hairstyle just a couple days longer in between salon visits. We lucked out and found Living Proof’s Prime Style Extender. Prime Style Extender contains OFPMA, which protects and extends the life of your style twice as long, saving you time, day after day. It weightlessly perfects strands while smoothing and correcting hair texture.

What more could a girl ask for!

Fall into RUBBER Nail Polish!

Illamasqua is a new British nail brand that promises to be a mix between a matte and jelly rubber nail polish. It is a highly pigmented matte nail varnish with an innovative rubber-like finish!  The chip-resistant rubber-finish nail color contains the finest high-grade color suspension materials for creating a fast and buildable waxy rubber finish.

 

 

Fall into BOLD Lip Color!

Bold lips are carrying over into fall and we want you to glam it up in the perfect hue! Check out these beauty tips to pull off the perfect look:

Deeper hues work on deeper skin tones, while pinker, lighter shades work on lighter skin tones.

Get The Look:

1.    Keep your eye palette neutral. A swipe of your favorite subtle color will help your lip color pop!

2.    Prep your lips with a moisturizing balm to keep them from flaking. Chapped lips look amplified when covered in a bright pigment.

3.     Add on your bright color. One coat will give you a muted look while still being bold, while two coats will really make your lips stand out. Blot on a tissue to absorb excess moisture.

Ready Set GO:

Step out in your bright, bold, and beautiful shade! The Indique personal favorites?  Bite Beauty Luminous Crème Lipstick, $24, MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Morange & Rapunxel $14.50, Estee Lauder Signature Lustre Lipstick $16.

BB Cream to the Rescue!

Ladies we are always pressed for time and the various products necessary to perfect our make-up application can become a bit time consuming. Well the BB Cream has come to save us time while ensuring long lasting make-up! The Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream primes, perfects, protects, hydrates, and controls the oils skin produces throughout the day. The tinted cream comes in five shades and has ingredients that will improve the skin within four weeks. Incorporate Smashbox’s BB Cream into your beauty routine for flawless looking skin. 

Renew lip moisture with Baby Lips!

Kick your boring chap sticks to the curb and moisturize your lips in style with Maybelline’s Baby Lips. The boldly colored tubes of lip balm dressed in graffiti like writing has a special lip renewal formula and added SPF 20, which gives lips 8 hours of moisture. After four weeks of use, your lips will feel as soft and supple like a baby! Not to mention, the lip balms are available in funky flavors such as Cherry Me, Peppermint, Grape Vine, Peach, and Pink Punch!

Quick & Easy way to Clean your Brushes!

Applying makeup everyday can be harsh on your brushes. For the woman on the go, a fast and sure way to clean your brushes is to use a gentle shampoo. 

 

Placing a small amount of shampoo in your hand and circling your brush’s bristles clock wise will get the job done. Rinse off with warm water and lay flat to dry. this technique will also keep your bristles from loosening! 

Breaking the Rules!

That old saying about not wearing white after Labor day is totally out the window! We at Indique love the way white looks at anytime of the year. Try a White bag, some pants, or even some white finger nails; you will look great and refreshing. White is the new black for the fall and especially winter season. Hey, they didn’t invite the term “Winter White” for no reason!
