My First Time.....

My first post on my first blog! i need to get into the swing of this whole blogging thing, so here goes......

Top of the wish list of  models i'd love to work with , the incredibly beautiful Karen Elson, working one of my favourite looks, the statement Red Lip !
There is nothing like putting on a red lip to make you feel glam and sexy .
Its not a complicated look but it needs a little patience .

• Prep is so important . Brush the lips gently with a toothbrish to remove any dead skin . apply lip balm to moisturise. My favourite is Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream .
• Blot off any excess balm and work the lipstick into the lips with a lipbrush. Then blot with a tissue.
• Go back over the colour and perfect the edges using a steady hand .
• Tidy up and little mistakes with your concealer brush .
• Check for any lipstick on your teeth(not a good look), and you are good to go !

More on the red lips later. I could dedicate an entire blog to this subject!
