Pretty Skin Part 1 - Sasa.com and H20 Plus

Hey Pretty!   So skin care, lets talk about it. The biggest tip I can ever give you to having flawless makeup is having flawless skin..or close to flawless. Skin care products can get extremely pricey and they are all, for the most part, hit or miss. I know "ain't nobody got time" for hit or miss when you're paying $50 for a face wash! What works for one person's skin may not work for your skin even if you have the same skin type so we almost have no choice but to go with trial and error. If you are a Kpop or Jpop follower than you know why I would recommend  any type of Asian skincare. Their skin always looks like flawless baby skin. GOALS. Watching SNSD (Kpop girl group) videos as a makeup artist I get so envious of their skin  that I would just about anything to grab a whole of those products......and thats when I found sasa.com and H20 plus. Thank you LAWD..............and SaSa. 2ne1 skin here I come! (Stay tuned for           " Pretty International "- Beauty Around the World : South Korea next Tuesday June  16! )   

When looking for skin products make sure you know what it is that you need.  Found out first what your skin type is . Oily ? Dry? Combination (Oily in TZone)? Normal ? Aged? Next you want to figure out what it is that you are looking for your skin products to do? 

What to look for . 

Oil Skin-  Most oily skin people feel that they dont need to moisturize because theyre oily but actually its the opposite, You NEED to moisturizer since you're oily. Oily skin is normally dehydrated and that is why it is over producing sebum (your natural oils). When looking for skin products look for products that are "hydrating" and "water based". 

Dry Skin- Use gentle, unscented skin care products. Stop using products that contain alcohol, fragrance, retinoids or alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Avoiding these products will help your skin keep its natural oils.

Aging-  You want to use aint-aging products with hyaluronic adics it which wil plump the skin up reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

So pretties remember that pretty skin means pretty makeup. Take care of your skin and srink plenty of water. Be good to your skin and it will be good to you! Stay you, stay classy and stay pretty!

5 Summer Beauty Must Haves

Hey Pretty!  So it's finally the long awaited season of the year! Well , I prefer Autumn but that's neither here nor there. Its SUMMER ! So lets get straight into the meat of the post hear. ( No particular order)

                            

                                " HEY PRETTY!'S 5 SUMMER MUST HAVES !"       

                                             

                                                   1. SPF Moisturizer/ Sunscreen ! 

So obviously we need moisturizer year around but during the summer the suns UV rays start getting out of hand and doing the most so we need to protect our skin at all cost ! (Yes my fellow "chocolate" skin people that means you too.)  Moisturizers or sunscreens with and SPF 15 or higher usually do that job. My favorite sun screens are hands down the ones  by Banana Boat ! I know you want to tan and soak in the sun but do it safely with out looking like fried chicken. 

                                                    2. Bronzer and Highlighter 

 OH MY GAWD, i cant stress how much of a must this one is for me ! Highlighters in the summer is LIFE! You know that moment when someone turns around and the sun hits the top of their cheek like BAM! *praise hands*. Enough said. My favorite highlighters and bronzers : 

 e.l.f "Gotta Glow" (pretty good dupe for NARS Albatross )

 Lorac Pro - Tantalizer

Too Faced Chocolate Bronzers ( LIFE IN A PACKAGE ,)  

YOU CAN CLICK THE PICTURE TO GET TOO FACED PRODUCTS TOO! 

                                                   3. Bright Colored Lippies ! 

       A simple winged eye and bright bold lip for me is SUMMER TIME FINE ! During the summer, especially if you live in the southern states or some where with a hotter climate, a lot of us just dont        want to wear a heavy full face of makeup so i say simple is better. Simple is also a good way to avoid looking like a melted crayon.  Youtuber " It's My Raye Raye " is the QUEEN of the Simple eye Bold lip look.

  

4. Primers and Setting/Hydrating Sprays  

Need I say more? We all know  "to not prime is a crime".  Remember that melted crayon look we talked about in must have #4? Yea, that's why we prime and set. Some favs: 

Urban Decay - Setting Spray (if you've ever used this you know what the deal is )

Too faced Poreless Primer 

E.l.F Tea Tree Primer 

M.A.C Prep and Prime

H20+ Hydrating Mist  

                                           

5. Body Mist

Ok so its already super hot out and nothing is worse than being in heat and someones perfume is super strong! Heat seems to make perfume smell 5x as strong as they already do so I like to go for Body Mist instead of perfumes. Body mist are light, fresh and just enough to smell good without smelling too strong. 

So pretties that was my top 5 things that i have to have during the summer. Remember to just have fun this summer and soak it in !  Leave a comment and tell what are some of your summer must haves ! Until Next time , Stay you Stay classy and Stay Pretty !
