Quick Beauty Tip: Eyeliner

February 19, 2014

To keep your liner behaving, sweep loose or pressed powder right under the eye liner on your bottom lid. It creates somewhat of a barrier, preventing your eyeliner from traveling downward.


Well as always, I hope this helps!

Quick Beauty Tip

April 16, 2013


Nowadays the eyeliners everyone is loving at the moment are the super easy glide-on pencils like the 24/7 Urban decay eyeliners. However as you may know, they can be a little hard to sharpen because of the gel inside of the pencil is so soft.

Well my tip for that is to just simply put you pencil in the freezer for like 15 before you sharpen them. The gel will harden and will sharpen with ease!!!

What's in MONI's MakeUp Bag???

October 03, 2012

As you may know I am a Freelance MakeUp Artist so of coarse I have a TON of MakeUp sad to say. However, I've been asked sooo many times what's my favorite must have to carry in my little personal MakeUp Bag so honey I'm gonna tell ya!!

Moni



Urban Decay Stardust Sparkling Lip Gloss: Absolutely love this gloss. It glides perfectly over my lipstick and the tiny glitter specs amps my plain lips also. 
$20 - Ulta




Victoria's Secret Luminous Mineral Blush Duo... My favorite blush, its so beautiful! 
$22- Victoria Secret 




Maybelline Dream Matt Mousse: I just got this and I'm not really sure if I like this foundation or not. What I can say is it does give me good coverage and it is lightweight.




Urban Decay Big Fatty Mascara: This mascara is currently my FAVORITE! The Big Fatty gives me gorgeous dramatic lashes
$18 - Ulta



Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick (Primrose): I always keep this handy just in case Im in need of a natural, soft pink,  creamy look. This colors goes with just about any colored eye shadow 
$19 Ulta 



Stila waterproof eye liner: As you know I almost ALWAYS rock a Winged eye and sometimes I use this to achieve that look. Gotta keep this handy as eye liner is a MUST!
Ulta


EOS Lip Balm: This lip balm keep my puckers nice and moisturized. Keeps my lips kissable in which I know my hubby likes!

Notice I did not have any eye shadow listed, well that's because I don't ever put eye shadow in my cosmetic bag. I always use a primer before I apply my eye shadow so it last ALL day so no touch ups are ever needed. However if I had no make up these items alone with give me the look I want!

Liquid Liner (winged eye)

August 23, 2011

Gosh Natasha Poly who stars on one of the six i-D Pre-Fall 2011 covers lensed by Willy Vanderperre is rocking a cute winged eye. Do you want the PERFECT eyeliner then if you ask me ditch the pencil and go liquid honey! Liquid liner is better because it goes on ultra smooth and looks much neater. It also makes a winged eye more achievable!





Oh and make sure you get water-proof liquid liner...as we all know drooling eyes is not cute!




Personally I love Avon liquid liner but M.A.C. has what the call fluidline which is also good. Urban Decay has what they call 24/7 liquid liner that is simply everlasting! Or you can just go to your local drug store and get covergirl, Almay, or maybelline liquid liners because they are all awesome as well!






Well as always I hope this helps :)

all you need is THREE

May 18, 2011

Ok ladies, I know that its kinda hard to put on a full face of make-up when its time for work, grocery store, or wherever. As a result we start doing what I call occasional make-up (birthdays, Dates, Clubbing, special events). DON'T GIVE UP LADIES....because I have a solution that is quick and easy.

Its just THREE simple things that will give you enhance your beauty and it really hardly takes no time at all! Ok are ya ready for the 3 things.......Well....

All you need is:


1. BLUSH

2. LIP GLOSS/LIPSTICK

3. EYE liner

I promise you just those three is all you need for a simple enhanced look. Get a little make-up bag and keep those three handy. Sometimes you can be creative and use a pretty purple, or blue eyeliner. You don't always have to use black or brown.

The picture below is of one of my BFF's (Lena), I just simply used blush, tinted lipgloss and eyeliner and just that gave her a gorgeous look...how long did it take...umm less than 2 min.


Well as always, I hope this was helpful and I hope you start your day with 3 beauty enhancing things that takes less then 2 min....
