Asian Skin

Burberry Sheer Eyeshadow Eye Enhancer in Almond ($29)= £20.00
Matte eyeshadows can be a bear to blend, but this golden brown spreads like buttah. Would-be jewel thieves might not like how readily the gunmetal compact captures their fingerprints, but the rich color and smooth texture more than make up for it, barring an arrest. It’s definitely a splurge, but it’s not a bad one to make.

Burberry Beauty Light Glow Natural Blush in Russet ($41) =£27.00

A definitive blush, and like the eyeshadow, this warm reddish peach, with its subtle golden glitter, seems to melt into my skin. It’s awfully spendy for a blush, but if you’re a girl who likes her luxury makeup and wears just one or two blush colors often, it might be worth the plunge.

Burberry Beauty Soft Satin Lipstick in Nude Beige ($30)=£20.00

WOW! Burberry did not hold back when they scented this lipstick. There’s something old lady/Miss Havisham from Great Expectations about it; my nose detects can’t miss the strong notes of baby powder, along with a spoonful of wealth and “maturity” thrown in for good measure (unflavored, though). Super pigmented, Nude Beige feels smooth on my lips, but the color only lasts about an hour before I have to reapply. For sure, I like this more for the packaging than the product itself. That said, the side detailing on the bullet and its cap, which has a smart magnetic closure, are kinda gorgeous.

Burberry Beauty Eye Definer Eye Shaping Pencil in Midnight Brown ($27)=£18.00

A dark brown with subtle golden glitter, the tip of this pencil feels hard but applies smooth. The formula layers and blends easily beneath powder shadows, and it grasps my lash line for somewhere between four and six hours. On my waterline, however, it fades quickly, completely disappearing in less than an hour.


Burberry Beauty Sheer Foundation in Trench No. 05 ($52)=£35.00

Okay, this might be an Asian thing, but does anyone else remember Pearl Cream (“made from real crushed pearls!”)? It was a face cream popular in the ’80s? My mom and aunts always had a jar in their medicine cabinets. So, this foundation has that same strong talcum powdery Pearl Cream scent, ha! It’s uncanny! Anywho, the sample I tested, Trench No. 5, is a warm light beige and sooo not my color, but I wore it around the house for fun. It offers sheer coverage and feels feather light on the skin, almost like a tinted moistaturizer.

BLOND OR  BRONDE !!!! Brunettes Go “Bronde” to Lighten Up This Summer!!!!


Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Lopez and Natalie Portman are all recent bronde converts. If its good for them sure hell it must be good for you too right?.

A perfect hybrid of blonde and brown, bronde is the newest — and most natural — look for dark-haired beauties who want to share in the sun-kissed summer fun, and look a few years younger while they’re at it.

Natalie Portman, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez and most recently Miley Cyrus, have been spotted with this lighter bronde hue — a term that’s become popular in the last few years to personify that not-quite-blonde, not-quite-brunette tone that “Glamour” first reported in November 2007 in response to the economic downturn, while at the same time brilliantly describing supermodel Gisele Bundchen’s much-coveted hair hue.

“Women who might normally lighten their hair all over are going for a darker base shade with more highlights, so what you get is something that’s part blond, part brown, or “brond,” said Beth Shapouri in a recap of the article on “Glamour’s” Girls in the Beauty Department blog. But this summer, it’s the other way around; rather than blondes trying to save cash, the bronde trend is now being driven by brunettes in search of a flattering summer shade that can shave years off your look.

Gisele Bundchen is the quintessential bronde.

“Women are always asking me, ‘What makes me look younger?’”, celebrity colorist and “Sheer Genius” judge, Kim Vo told StyleList. Blonde hair dye mixed with a flattering tint of brown gives brunettes what he thinks is the most versatile color, regardless of age.Because Vo says women have become “blonderexic” — a Vo-ism that describes someone who has too much blonde for their own good — he says this warmer hue works better with our darker, natural coloring.It also helps us avoid the number one mistake that brunettes make: orange highlights. “Highlights like that remind me of tiger strips,” Vo says.The key is to lighten the locks more subtly by painting select layers on top of the hair with two different volumes of color lifting creams. This ultimately gives darker hair more depth and dimension without looking like you’re trying to be the blonde you’re not. Its warmer highlights are also the most forgiving according to Vo because they work on all skin types and hair textures.

“I was inspired by memories of my childhood on the beaches in France,” says Vo who believes this look is as casual and natural as you want it to be.Once colored, Vo recommends protecting your locks with a glaze. “It seals in color, adds a diamond-like radiance and shine and creates the perfect ‘date night’ hair. It’s one of my favorite products!” Just like blonde is now one of his favorite colors.

“If blonde and brunette had a love child, it would be bronde,” Vo adds. “It’s the way to go!”

Aside from this new color option, see another reason why it’s great to be a brunette!please leave a comment Chow !!!!

looks fantastic every time she steps out into the spotlight, but it can’t be easy to look fabulous all the time. Every star has her tricks to create the illusion of perfection, and even Beyonce has a few of her own. She recently sat down with Elle magazine to discuss her routine. The best part? Beyonce’s tips are simple and inexpensive. In other words, do try this at home!

Here are some tips and tricks for looking as great as Beyonce:

Lack of sleep shows up in your eyes. Beyonce keeps a pair of sunglasses with her at all times for instant glam!

A dab of gold shadow in the corners of your eyes can help wake up your look. If you have caramel skin, gold is more subtle than white. For lighter skin, try a pearl or nude tone.

Beyonce layers bronzers for a healthy glow. She loves L’Oréal Paris Sublime Bronze One Day gel (which she picks up at Walmart in the states but in the UK you can get it at Boots) and Scott Barnes Body Bling you can get on ebay .

Makeup primer, followed by powder, keep Beyonce’s makeup in place on the red carpet.Waterproof mascara and false lashes help prevent smudging.

Lol ! You’re now one step closer to being Super Glam! Watch the video below  and see how to apply Barnes body Bling.

The formula contains antioxidant-rich rosemary, perilla,  chamomile, and aloe extracts to soothe and moisturise the eyes.
