Coutorture has been sponsoring incredible giveaways each week for about the last month, and between my vacationing and catching up from it I haven’t been able to get it together enough to participate, but I am pretty well there now (I think!), so lets join in the fun!

Elke’s Makeup Lessons – Foundation

Christina Jones — Tue, 01 Aug 2006 07:02:21 +0000

I have been stinky-stinky-stinky at getting these up like I wanted to, but here is lesson 2 of Elke’s basic makeup lessons – this one is on foundation. Elke shows us how to find the perfect color for your skin, and her trick to using concealer. Check out that brush she is using – she is very artistic, no? I have been so accustomed to my powder foundation, but she has made me want to get out my liquid again and play artist!

If you missed it before, Lesson 1 was Primer, and you can find it here. I will finish this series up next week, I promise! Along with Elke, thanks to Julie and Phil at Coutorture for getting these videos up for us all to see and learn from!

This is my official notice that I am leaving tomorrow morning (assuming I actually get packed – it is 2 am now and I am not yet packing – obviously!) to road trip to my lovely high school reunion in Tennessee. I have a few posts planned for the next few days, so keep your fingers crossed that they don’t mess up! Did I mention I am very ready for normalcy to enter my life again with the coming school year starting up in 2 weeks? Well I am. I guess I have become a creature of habit. Anyway, I hope you all have a great rest of the week, I will surely miss you!

Back to beauty!

OMG when it rains it pours. Except never here on our ranch in Texas. However it rains and pours in Houston, on me. Think car trouble, middle of Houston, no AAA and no idea who to call to help me since my hubby works out of town during the week. Anyway, so sorry for the horrid lack of beauty around here for the last darned-near-two-weeks! Lets get back at it in a big way with a great how-to series from Elke at The Beauty Newsletter – she is marvelous! This is part one of Elke’s makeup tutorial, and is on primer. You can see the rest of them at YouTube, or just hang on, I will get them posted up for you here!

Thanks so much Elke, you are so great to share! I just got the Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer from Smashbox yesterday, the one I have spoken of before with SPF 15 and Dermaxyl Complex, and so far I love it. The silicone-y feeling of the primer that was icky to me before has really grown on me, and I swear, when I put it on my face, it immediately reduces my fine lines and my pore size. It is amazing stuff, if you haven’t tried it yet, be sure and give it a shot – you will love it!
