Colorize Your Eye Makeup

Image
If your everyday neutral eye makeup is feeling a bit monochrome, it's time to colorize. This is the season for shocks of color. The runways at Fashion Week were bursting with bright hues accenting the eyes. There was forest green shadow at Versus Versace, neon yellow winged liner at Haider Ackerman, orange and red arches at Salvatore Ferragamo,  and bright washes of color across the lids at Ports 1961, Missoni, Boss, Nanette Lapore, and Monique Lhulilier. Color at the spring shows was not intimidating; it was emboldening. Be empowered. Make a statement. Skip the sepia tones for the day - or night - and rock with shocks of color. Colorize with the edgy, bright hues of iNtense PRO Press Powder Pigments . These pigment-rich matte shadows are incredibly silky and super long lasting. Available in a range of intense hues to suit your mood. Embrace opaque color and follow these tips from Mehron makeup artist Pamela Faller for optimal impact. iNtense Pro Pressed Powder Pigments Available i...

2 Shows, 2 Coasts, 1 Weekend

Image
We were busy last weekend spreading Mehron love from coast to coast. Our team packed up product, split from one team into two, and headed to Los Angeles and New Orleans.  Two trade shows in one weekend didn't intimidate us - or stop us from entertaining the crowds. Out west in the hub of film and television, we brought along California MUA and body painter Argenis Pinal to IMATS LA. The art he creates with Paradise Makeup AQ is out of this world - literally, since he is known for his comic book makeup art. His ability to transform himself and his models into comic book characters is simply amazing. A wizard with makeup, he has you questioning whether you are looking at a living person or an illustration. IMATS attendees definitely did a double take.  The show was extra special, as it was IMATS LA's 20th year. We were thrilled to help them celebrate the milestone. While we were out in LA, we popped in to visit our friends over at the Michael Vincent Academy, the largest professi...

It's All About The Blending

Flawless coverage is all about the blending. Mehron's Face Smoothie is the perfect tool for achieving smooth, buildable coverage. It's unique acorn design makes makeup application foolproof. The shape and soft texture allow you to easily contour hard to reach areas. Wondering how to use it? Follow the steps below to achieve a gorgeous airbrushed look. Presoak the Face Smoothie in water and squeeze out the excess. Use a Makeup Spatula to remove some Celebré Pro HD Cream Foundation from the pan. Place the foundation on the outside of your hand. Really work the Celebré  into the Face Smoothie . Starting in the center of the face, apply Celebré  with the Face Smoothie by pressing and blending. Use the tip to blend the more targeted spots, such as the corner of the eye, underneath the eye, and the sides of the nose. Blend until the product melts into the skin. Pro Tip for Highlighting: Apply the highlighting hue with the tip of the Face Smoothie , then blend with the bottom of...

How To Do A Red Carpet Lip

Image
The red lip was popular at the Golden Globes this week. Hues of poppy to cranberry to deep crimson popped up all over the red carpet on the lips of host of celebrities such as Golden Globe winner Tracee Ellis Ross, Anna Kendrick, Chrissy Teigen, Brie Larson, Lily Collins, Priyanka Chopra, Teresa Palmer, and Riley Keough. This classic, glamorous look is powerful and pretty. Follow these steps below and you will be applying the timeless color like a pro. Brush lips with a toothbrush or washcloth to whisk away dead skin. Hydrate with a lip balm if desired. Outline the lips, starting with the cupid's bow, with L.I.P Liner Pencil in Brick . Once you have finished the line, fill in the lips with the pencil for added staying power. Pro tip: blot lips with a tissue and then color in any faded spots. Follow with L.I.P Cream in Valentine . For a glossy lip, add a coat of Glosstone Pro in Crystal Clear . Want something brighter? Try L.I.P Cream in Big Apple . Desire something a little pinker?...
