Salma Hayek Debuts Cosmetics Line Nuance

The attractive actress in her 45th, after a successful acting career and production, decided to make a dramatic turnaround, and has developed her own line of cosmetic products.


Although her colleagues are satisfied with the perfume, Salma's new project is expected to reach sales of 35 million U.S. dollars in the first year.

Nuance will be line of up to 100 different products, which will be available in more than 7,000 CVS drugstores across the United States. Although prices will be very acceptable (in the range of 5 to 20 dollars), Salma said that the formulation of her line can be measured even with multi-expensive high-end brands. Nuance will have a range of makeup products, skin care products and hair care. Salma Hayek developed this line for six years and was greatly inspired by her grandmother.


"I've always wanted to do this, because my grandmother was a real beauty. My mother is largely similar, so we have some family secret recipes for beauty." Some of the ingredients and the formula for homemade products Salma has used in new products, and considering how much time and energy she invested in this new project, the success is apparently inevitable.

Beauty Tips for Blondes

Pastel shades will give a romantic and gentle appearance for blondes. Make sure that your eyes, lips and nails are in the foreground.



Eyes

A thin line of dark liquid eyeliner will emphasize the bright and dark eyes. If you are blue, green or gray, select the harmony of cold colors, from white to soft pink color, or mallow, crossings with pearly gray and light blue. On the entire upper eyelid, from lash to the brow edge, apply the lightest eyeshadow and in the crease darker shade. Mix them a little with your finger and blend. Finish with black mascara, to make your lashes look longer and thicker.

Lips

You have a light complexion? Bright pink, light purple or blue-purple lipstick will fit perfectly.

Give an advantage to lipstick with velvet texture, and then apply a colorless lip gloss - it will you fuller lips, and lipstick will last longer. Lip pencil and lipstick should always be in the same color. With a strong contrast your lips will look smaller.

Nails

Try nail polish that is different from the color of your lipstick. Yes, the new make-up of gentle colors allows it. Gray, silver or dark gray ... do not hesitate to try.

Get Rid of Make Up Myths


Smokey eyes look is not appropriate for the day. Red lipstick does not suit everyone ...


 

Eyelash curler

One of the basic beauty "tools" is the eyelash curler. However, many women are not using it because they fear that it could damage the eyelashes, or that they may fall off because of it!

If used properly, curling your lashes will give a new dimension to your eyes and make it bigger. Gently press your lashes with a curler, hold that position twenty seconds and gently release the lashes. Only then apply mascara. Also, it is important not to overdo with the use of eyelash curlers and let a little rest. Use curler when you go out or on a date.

Smokey eye

Although the smokey eye look heavy and reserved for the night and going out (due to dark tones that emphasize the depth of the eye and smeared black pen) you can customize it and carry it during the day. Keep the technique, just adjust the color. Choose neutral colors such as beige and light brown cappuccino or lilac. Similarly, instead of two coats of mascara, apply just one.

Red lipstick

It is a common misconception that only some women can wear red lipstick because it does not fit to everyone. It is simply not true. There are so many shades of red, so do not hesitate to select one that matches your skin color.

If your complexion is colder use red, which contains colored tinge of wine, while for those with a yellowish complexion a better choice is warmer tones with a brown or orange base. Cold red hue of lipstick is the best choice for those with a pasty complexion.

Givenchy Acid Summer Collection

"Like a ray of light pulsating relate everything in its path, neon colors complement and reinforce one another, encouraging the rebellious atmosphere of the world that knows no inhibitions.
By combining the gap between day and night, neon is the main driving force behind this year's summer - the season that invites you to enjoy and freedom."

With this poetic tone Givenchy artistic director Nicolas Degennes described his new creation. Courageous and explosive Acid Summer collection probably will not leave anyone indifferent, but it is certainly an additional confirmation of the basic trend of the summer: the creative use of color without limits. The collection consists of:

    The Perfect Blush For Your Face Shape

    According to the make-up artist Jane Richardson, who works for Nars Cosmetics, the most important thing to remember is that make-up should follow the natural shadow lines on the face.

    Also that blush should be applied to the most attractive parts of the face, ie, those parts of the face that we want to emphasize.Color is never applied under the cheekbone on the cheeks, below the upper half of the face, not too close to the nose.

    Here are tips for applying blush for three basic types of face shapes.

    Round face - This face, what has, for example, actress Kirsten Dunst, is mostly small and can look like it is covered with blush.

    Use a fan brush for your blush (like this one in the picture above). It is excellent for precise applying blush on small faces. Apply blush in the shape of a boomerang, with one end under the outer edge of the eye, and central, below the fullest part of the inner edge of the eye.

    Continue with applying with the same brush to complement the shape of the boomerang.

    Use a round brush to complete the whole look, but don't apply blush on the cheeks below the cheekbone and the side, away from the end of the eyebrows.

    Apply just a hint of blush on the chin to visually elongate the face.

    Square face - this person is, for example, model Gisele Bundchen. They have excellent defined contours and may appear in some cases too dramatic and rough. Although they have fantastic cheek bones, when it comes to blushing, it is necessary to follow certain rules in order to highlight best facial attributes.

    Use a small brush for powder so you can directly apply the blush on the tops of cheek. Starting from the position under the outer edge of the pupil, drag the brush to the outer corners of the eye.

    With a bigger brush even out the color, not crossing the line below your ear shells.

    Apply a bronzer or darker shade of blush on the outer corners of the jaw to soften the rectangular shape.

    Oval face - oval face, like Rihanna, are very grateful when it comes to hair and makeup, because you can easily experiment. But just because your face is quite adaptive, does not mean that you can follow by everything make up tip. For best results read the next few tips.

    Start with a medium size brush. Make circles on the top part of your cheek bone, the part which is furthest from your face when you smile.

    Use the same brush to distribute lighter coat of blush slightly up to the hairline.

    Use a larger brush to merge everything.

    Just lightly apply blush to the center of the chin to contribute to the definition and visually highlight your correct face shape.

    And finally, here are some pictures that may help when applying blush.

    1. For lifting


    2. For sharper edges


    3. For lengthening


    4. To ease the sharp edges


    5. To visually expand your face

    Worst Make-up Sins

    Although we are daily flooded with the latest fashion and make-up trends, we all make some mistakes that we later regret.
    Even the stars, with an army of stylists and makeup artists sometimes appear like they haven't looked in the mirror.

    We learn from our mistakes. Therefore, we bring you the top 5 make-up sins.

    1. Too dark shade of lipstick

    Dark lipstick such as brown, chestnut or purple can act too aggressively, and make you look older. At all costs avoid dark lip pencil, especially if you plan to apply lipstick. Instead of lipstick rather opt for lip gloss in a similar shade that will not act so aggressively.


    2. Too thin eyebrows

    If you got carried away with a tweezer, you'll have to let your eyebrows grow back and then shape them. Until they grow, use a special pencil for eyebrows. If you have dark hair, opt for black or dark brown pencil, and if you have a lighter complexion and hair choose a light brown pen.

    3. Excessive make-up

    This is a beginner mistake, but it is still often repeated. Intensive makeup on your eyes and lips combined with a heavy layer of foundation, and blush won't make you shine, but will make you look older. As much as you love experimenting with makeup, if you want a fresh and modern look, focus just on the eyes or lips, and on the rest of the face cover imperfections.


    4. The wrong shade of foundation

    This error often happens to all women. Even if you found that ideal shade for your complexion, foundation purchased in the summer won't suit you in winter and vice versa. Therefore, every woman should have at least two foundations that can be worn depending on the season and skin tone. A nice solution is mixing the two shades to get the tone that will perfectly match the tone of your face.

    5. Too much bronzer

    Too much bronzer will make you look dirty or unnatural orange. In addition, a bronzer shade, like a powder, should be changed depending on the season.

    4 Reasons To Start Using Mineral Makeup

    Dermatologists and make-up artists praise the effects of mineral makeup because of a light texture, positive impact on the skin, but also because of good protection against harmful sunlight.


    Although these products are more expensive than traditional, it is worth investing in them, as compared to standard cosmetics that are full of chemicals, mineral makeup is made from natural ingredients.

    Mineral make up are cosmetics products made only from natural ingredients - minerals from the earth, without any chemicals, colors, preservatives or perfume. This is a light make up without any shine, that does not irritate skin, does not close the pores, and provides a natural appearance.

    Light texture
    One of the best characteristic of mineral makeup is its light texture. Those who have experimented with various products claim that with this make up you will achieve a natural look.

    Because of its texture, it is easy to apply and remove make-up. It's long lasting and, most importantly, will not cause adverse effects even when you forget to remove makeup.

    Skin can "breathe"
    Mineral makeup allows pores to "breathe". The secret of these products is that they consist of inorganic ingredients, which do not allow the bacteria to spread and penetrate in the deepest layers of the skin. Therefore, it prevents the accumulation of fat in the pores, which may cause acne and inflammation.

    It doesn't contain any harmful chemicals.
    Mineral cosmetics manufacturers have argued for the removal of all hazardous chemicals in products for skin care. One of the most famous manufacturers of natural mineral cosmetics, "Dr.Hauschka" takes into account the strict quality criteria. This implies that the composition of these products is only plants with certified organic cultivation or wild plants from the clean field. Products can't contain synthetic preservatives, fragrances and colors, and have to be dermatological and ophthalmologic tested.

    Hides skins flaws
    Due to unhealthy lifestyles, or inadequate care, skin problems such as acne, blackheads, allergies can easily occur. Mineral make up offers the best support in the disguise of these changes on the skin. It perfectly covers the redness of the skin, uneven complexion and any irregularities. In addition, it also offers protection from harmful solar radiation.

    Cleopatra's Beauty Secrets

    The legendary Queen Cleopatra, the great seducer of her time, knew how to nourish the face and body. Women have admired her for ages because she managed to win the hearts of "unavailable" men.


    After more than two thousand years ago, her recipes surpass many cosmetic products, in both quality and efficiency. In that time, people have used as many as 21 aromatic oil to protect skin from the sun, treat stretch marks, wrinkles and cellulite ...

    Body Care

    History tells us some of the beauty treatments that used mysterious Cleopatra and Egyptians general. Her most famous treatment is bath milk. In fact, milk is just one of the ingredients of this rich bath. The entire pool or bathtub, would be filled with warm water and milk. Cleopatra loved flowers and aromatic essential oils, so she often used this in her bathtub. Original recipe was lost, but we know that donkey milk was used, but ordinary milk can be used. It is best to use milk with a high percentage of fat, it helps dry and dehydrated skin. Acids in milk destroy the dead skin cells. Vitamin A and E give a more fresh look to the skin.

    Makeup

    Egyptians believed that god blessed beautiful women. Eye shadow, which we use today are made from different ingredients. In the past, the ground ore were mixed with roasted almonds to produce a brown eye shadow. Green copper ore (malachite) were segmented to get a green tint. Fragrant spice saffron, gave yellow shades. Cleopatra's eye shadows were applied on the entire eyelid. Eyeliner or kohl (powdered antimony) was applied on hot sticks. Egyptians put kohl on the entire eye. It gave good-looking eyes, but also protected from strong sun and dry climate. Egyptians believed that eyes that don't have any makeup are exposed to evil and because of this man, women and children used make-up. This style of make-up recommends all companies that produce corrective makeup. So-called "Arab eyes" have always been hit in the fashion industry.

    Cleopatra used a make-up base made of wax. This mass is made from animal fat and white lead. She applied this base on the face and neck, which gave her a majestic statue look. She put powder of red clay on cheeks, and for lips used a mixture of red clay, sticky residue of red wine and blackberries.

    Perfumes and essential oils

    Known for their beauty, queens Cleopatra and Nefertiti first discovered exotic art of making perfumes. The Egyptians bathed in a mixture of oils, perfumes and lime. Perfumes were made of flowers and trees miring, mixed with oil or grease. They used a variety of ingredients, from the flower of henna, cinnamon, lily, iris, rose, and bitter almonds. That is why their skin always had a pleasant smell.

    Honey

    An indispensable ingredient of Cleopatra baths, treatment for hair and face, was a honey. The ability of skin to stay hydrated is an important factor in maintaining the softness, flexibility and slenderness. As skin ages or is exposed to external influences of stress and chemical agents, it loses the ability to retain water, becomes dry and wrinkles appear. Honey attracts and retains water and therefore, is the natural basis for a variety of products, including moisturizing lotions, cleansers, creams, shampoos and balsams.
