How To Get Kate Moss’ Pink Streaks in Blonde Hair Look

How To Get Fake French Nails in 10 Minutes

Love the look of French nails, or should I say fake looking French nails, but can’t be bothered spending up to 2 hours at the nail salon or paying up to $65?

Well, I’ve discovered a way to get the perfect French nails in just 10 minutes with Broadway Nails! I’m into the dark nails these days, so I was a bit reluctant to try Broadway Nails, which by the way, are available at Walmart and cost around $6 (Yes. Cheep right?).  I was worried that once I glue on these fake French beauties I will have to be committed to them for months, like the French tips you get in a salon.  The result was perfect French nails in 10 minutes which lasted around 10 days. They are easily removed, and I lost a few anyways after about a week. You can glue-on the nail back if you want to make it last a day or two.

How To Apply Mineral Makeup by Gordon Espinet VP Global Makeup Artistry MAC Worldwide

Here is a quick interview with Gordon Espinet VP Global Makeup Artistry MAC Worldwide, on Mineral Makeup 101 and on how to apply:

Q: Why is mineral makeup such a huge trend right now?
A: For a long time, women have wanted an alternative to the heavy powders and foundations that are on the market. They want their skin to be flawless but not made up and mineral products fit that need. We of course still have plenty of customers who cannot live without their full coverage, but that is why M·A·C is the makeup authority, we have something for everyone. It’s about having choices.

Q: Do you apply mineral makeup differently than non-mineral makeup?
A: Mineral makeup is no different than any other makeup when it comes to application techniques. The difference is in the final look. Mineral makeup provides a more natural appearance and always looks perfectly applied. As with all makeup, be sure that you choose the correct colours and begin with less product as it is easier to add product than it is to remove excess.
