EXCLUSIVE NEW TREND: HOW TO WEAR GLITTER LIPS!

Hey Blossoms,

You know I love to bring you all the hottest most exclusive info first. Well today I'm going to share with you all HOW TO WEAR GLITTER LIPS! This is not for the faint of heart. IF you LOVE BOLD LIPS then this is for you.

The products you need are simple:

Your favorite  lipliner

Your favorite lipstick

Eye Kandy Sprinkles Glitter

Eye Kandy Liquid Sugar

Your favorite lipgloss


Eye Kandy Cosmetics is a hot new company I was first introduced to at IMATS NY. The company has SUPERB customer service and know their stuff! They have colors galore!! Here's what they say about their company from their website:

Eye Kandy is a brand new company that offers the latest breakthrough in glitter cosmetics. Our revolutionary liquid adhesive base, Liquid Sugar, sets us apart from all other glitter cosmetics.

Our Liquid Sugar base offers incredible endurance that will hold your glitter on all day without flaking off into your eyes and onto your face. Our Eye Kandy Sprinkles are a high-end, pure cosmetic glitter that is completely safe for the eyes and is available in forty-eight brilliant colors. Because you apply the glitter and the base together, you can manipulate your application to a fine line for a more subtle look or a thicker, bolder line for a more dramatic or “night” look. Finally, a product that does exactly what it says it will! Say good-bye forever to pat-on, gels, flaky and messy eye glitters! Eye Kandy is the perfect no flaking, no mess, everyday cosmetic that you’ve been searching for. Eye Kandy is here to meet all of your cosmetic glitter needs, so have fun with the product and don’t be afraid to experiment and play with the colors.

We guarantee you will love your look. Eye Kandy is also for dancerscheerleaders and any other stage performers!"





I had to UNDERLINE BOLD and ENLARGE the fact that they have 48 colors and when they say BRILLIANT they mean BRILLIANT. The colors are so vivid its insane and this is EXACTLY why I decided to use the glitter on MY LIPS!


It's easy here are the steps!


1) Apply your favorite lipliner and fill in your lips as you like


2) Apply at least 2 layers of your favorite lipstick


3) Take a lip brush and dip it into (if its your own personal supply) or take a Q-tip(best for MUAs as to not contaminate the liquid sugar) and quickly dip it in to soak up the Liquid sugar.


*You may also place the liquid sugar in a travel sized bottle that has a droplet like top so that you can drop a few drops onto the lip brush this will ensure no contamination*


4) Sift out a little glitter onto the top of the glitter jar (if its your own personal supply) or onto your hand or palette( best for MUAs but be careful not to over sift).


5) Dip the lip brush with the Liquid Sugar on it onto the glitter you sifted out and apply to lips with a PACKING or PAT PAT motion. Do NOT swipe across lips it will cause the glitter to mix with the lipstick. 


6) After you've PACKED the glitter onto your lips (you can make it as subtle or as intense as you like the glitters ARE buildable) let it DRY for approx. 30 seconds (I like to give it a minute to be sure).


7) You can wear it as a MATTE like glitter lip or now place ONE layer of lipgloss over (over-saturating your lips with gloss may cause the glitter to move).


The glitter IS NOT MESSY. You will not find it all over your lips by days end. It's safe and is removed easily with water & tissue, baby wipe, hand wipe or a makeup remover. 


Here's a few photos of the Eye Kandy glitters and liquid sugar

Look how BRIGHT and vibrant her lips are! 




You can make it as subtle or as vibrant as you like. See how finely milled the glitter is NO chunks in sight and it doesn't move once dry!

THE MARY JANE MODELS

I freelanced at a gig where I was one of 5 makeup artists. We were there to make up the Mary Jane models for that nights event where they were to pick 4 new Mary Jane Model members. I made up 2 models.



They were beautiful women and very high spirited. The excitement for who would join their team of models that night was definitely permeating the room. The atmosphere was definitely that of nightlife. So many models trafficking in an out of the make up area, outfit changes and alterations, everyone talking at once, laughter, jokes and lots of smiling. The makeup artist were busy at work fixing and primping and powdering and anything else that needed to be done to make these ladies look even more fabulous. I took a few digi cam photos and it captured some of the beauty for a full effect you definitely had to be there in person.



This gig was really fun. It allowed for a massive amount of creativity. The idea was to make the ladies looks "POP" with color & creativity! Nothing was off limits.



The ladies were good sports too allowing their faces to be a canvas for such abstractness. The end result was definitely sexy! A night we will all remember. Big thanks to those ladies for allowing me to take photographs of them for my personal use. And whats a gig without the famous makeup artist and client picture(thank goodness I remembered I usually forget or the client leaves as you can tell from the pictures she was just about to walk out the door!) I was so excited I had remembered that I to grab 2 photos!

Thanks for reading about this fun event. Many more gigs and pictures to follow. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions feel free to email me or leave them below. Later, Blossoms
