Beauty Tips for Stretching Summer

Summer is a beautiful time of the year: it’s nice and hot outside, we swim in the ocean or the pool, we get great skin and beachy waves thanks to sea water, get sun-kissed, and eat delicious and succulent fruits. Sometimes summer is SO good we don’t want it to go away.

Here are some beauty tip to stretch your summer just a little longer into fall…

Take a nice bath with Philosophy Raspberry Sorbet shower gel & Bubble bath to remind you of succulent summer fruits and ice cream. $16 at www.sephora.com

A nice sea salt body scrub such as Origins Incredible Spreadable Scrub Sea Salt Body Smoother will help satisfy your craving for sea water and ocean, $26. Available at www.beauty.com

You’ve spent hours on the beach or by the pool. You squeezed fresh lemon on your hair in your garden. Or you’ve spent some decent cash on your blond highlights. Whichever way you’ve achieved beautiful blonde highlights, you can stretch their life with Redken Blonde Glam Shampoo & Conditioner, and Blonde Glam Color Enhancer Rich Vanilla or Perfect Platinum. Available at redken.com for salons

Summer Foundations:MAC Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15

I’m very excited by the latest from MAC Cosmetics: From their NEW MAC Baby Bloom makeup collection: MAC Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15.

In the summer I look for foundations that  give me that flawless coverage without being too heavy. I sound a bit demanding, but it seems that MAC answered my prayers with their MAC Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15.

So what’s so great about MAC Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15: Sheer formula with great performance. An oil-free foundation. It evens out the skin tone with minimal colour, provides SPF 15 board spectrum UVS/UVB protection and increases moisture levels. It is perfect if you are a busy woman without time for a moisturizer, sunscreen and foundation, or if you are a woman who prefers something lighter than traditional foundations.

Look For Less:Maybelline New York Waterproof liquid eyeliner

The following is  is a liquid eye liner review by Meryl, Talking Makeup’s lovely intern!


Meryl

I believe Liquid eyeliner is always in if you apply it correctly! So I decided to write about two of my favorite liquid eyeliners.

First one is Maybelline New York Waterproof liquid eyeliner. This eyeliner costs you about $ 6 to $8 dollars. But don’t let the price fool you. Its very affordable and good in quality. This eyeliner is amazing! The liquid eyeliner is thick liquid and firm felt tip applicator allows easy control. This is very important since a lot of people think liquid eyeliners are hard to apply.

Also the Maybelline New York Waterproof liquid eyeliner is extremely waterproof. Sometimes I wear this eyeliner when I go swimming and it does not come off unless I rub my eyes hard. But, the good part is that at night when you are trying to take off your makeup, it comes off easily. Some waterproof eyeliners are really hard to get it off and you have to spend money on eye makeup remove, but not this eyeliner. I highly recommend this eyeliner for a beginner that does not want to spend big bucks for eyeliner!

My second favorite is a little pricier then my first selection. It it’s called MAC Liquid Eyeliner. This runs you about $ 16.50.
