Lipstick for a Quick Beauty Fix

When asked what I can't live without as far as makeup goes, I absolutely love Lustreglass in Venetian by M.A.C.  The high shine lip finish from the M.A.C. Cosmetics line of  Lipglass lipsticks is my go to gloss for spring, summer and even late into fall. I'm absolutely obsessed with the versatility of the shade Venetian. One shade, three seasons, a fabulous look no matter where you go. Lustreglass is my save all for lunch with the girls, a day at the beach, or even a quick jaunt to the market. Whether going incognito on the weekend or at the forefront of the boardroom on the workday, beautiful dramatic lips can add the perfect amount of elegance to any style. Dressy or casual it goes beyond any gloss I've ever used, perfect for a quick beauty fix.

Sensational Makeup by MAC

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2011 brought on a bevy of fabulous looks from haute couture to haute cosmetics my favorite look of all was one which could be worn right off the runway. Val Garland for MAC cosmetics did a gorgeous job giving the models from the Isaac Mizrahi show a clean sophisticated look using none other one of my cosmetic crushes MAC. A flawlessly classic look achieved by blending MAC Cream Color Bases in just the right places. Defining the brows with Impeccable Brow Pencils in an array of suitable shades and a cleanly lined eye using MAC Cream Liner in Black. A little Powder Blush across the crease of the eye-lid and a touch more of that lovely Cream Color Base in a sepia tone creating those perfectly pretty lips. Bringing the essence of natural wearable beauty to the runway. The versatility of the Cream Color Base along with the Cream Liner makes for an unstoppable duo in any girls cosmetics collection and both items have topped my must have list for this month.
