skin can often become congested with many cleansing masks over drying the face.

acts like a magnet, helping to draw deep-rooted impurities out of the skin

smooth and wonderfully cleansed.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Here is another product I got in my J'Adore Vox Box from <a href="http://www.influenster.com/">Influenster</a>. It's the <a href="http://us.boots.com/">Boots</a> <a href="http://us.boots.com/product/39907">Botanics Shine Away Ionic Clay Mask</a> When I used this mask I noticed
that it was slightly smelly. It had a
very nice tingle to it. I like that
about a mask…I feel like the product is really doing it’s job. And when the tingle goes away you know it's
dry and ready to wash off. It did leave
my skin feeling smooth but I felt like I needed a moisturizer after rinsing
off. The next day skin was slightly
oily. I used the mask again the next
week but only as a spot treatment. For
this I feel that the product works very well. I will continue to use this product along with my other facial washes and scrubs. Let me know your thoughts and experience with this mask.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;">“<a href="http://www.redrosetea.com/">Red Rose</a> Simply
Indulgent Teas and single serve cups are new, handcrafted black teas blended
with specially developed natural flavor extracts. These blends marry
high-quality tea standards with premium natural flavors.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">I received some tea samples in my J’Adore Vox Box. I was very happy to see tea in my box and was
even more delighted that the flavor was Crème Caramel. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.redrosetea.com/redrose/2011-Images/RR-Simply-Indulgent-Creme-Caramel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="http://www.redrosetea.com/redrose/2011-Images/RR-Simply-Indulgent-Creme-Caramel.jpg" height="200" width="177" /></span></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>“Leaves from the
world's finest tea estates are masterfully blended with the luscious and
natural flavor of sweet caramel. In one sip, your taste buds will experience
the layers of rich flavor and an aroma that will comfort through the very last
drop.”</i> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This statement could not be truer! The caramel taste is not over powering or too
sweet. It’s just the right amount of
deliciousness. If you are one who likes
milk in your tea as well as caramel…then you have to try this one out. The Crème Caramel can be bought from the <a href="http://www.redrosetea.com/">Red Rose</a> website for $4.99 for a box of 20 individually wrapped tea bags. Check them out if you’re a tea lover…they
have all kinds of teas from black teas to loose teas and even organic teas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Blessed to be healthy, have my family and they are healthy, awesome friends that are healthy too. I'm grateful for everything that I have...and can't wait to see what another year of being 30 brings. That's right...I'm 30 again and will continue to be 30 until I don't look 30 anymore lol. Just a few collages from the month and how I celebrated my birthday. </span></div>

I had a little bit of a tough time finding a dress that I was comfortable with wearing as I have gained a little bit of weight lately. But I found this super cute black lace and cream dress in the juniors section in <a href="http://www.macys.com/">Macys</a>. I was a little self conscious as the dress was a body con dress...but I put on my spanks and paired it with some plain mary jane type patent leather pumps and thought I looked pretty hot for my date night! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because we checked into the hotel a little early and had some time to relax I was able to take a little more time with my makeup. I went back and forth in my mind as to what look I wanted...black smoky eye...or a nice neutral eye. So I mixed the two and I love how this neutral yet smoky look turned out. I used my <a href="http://www.wnwbeauty.com/">Wet N' Wild</a> vanity palette for this look and paired it with a nude lip. I was kind of feeling myself a bit this night lol. Below is a list of everything I used. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been challenged to make use of some of the palettes in my stash that rarely get used. So, today I decided to break out my <a href="http://www.wnwbeauty.com/">Wet N' Wild</a> Petal Pusher 8 pan palette. I will do one more look this week using this same palette. Probably a nice purple smoky eye...ya'll know I love a good smoky eye :) Below is a list of all the products I used to achieve this look. Do you have any palettes in your stash that hardly get used? If so, then join me in this challenge. Dust them off and create some looks. </span><br />

If you missed part 1 of this amazing class, About Faces...shame on you! Lol...but you can read all about it in my previous blog post <a href="http://fabulouslyflawedbeauty.blogspot.com/2013/06/about-faces-makeup-class.html">About Faces Makeup Class</a>. </div>

This past Sunday I had the pleasure of taking yet another class taught by the extremely talented <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Brittany-Rogers-Celebrity-MUA/226902877376135">Brittany Rogers</a>. I really enjoy her classes because she is very personable and makes learning fun in an informal setting. And she always gives us little goodie boxes which is super sweet. This class was sponsored by Shades by Shay and we got two really pretty shadows that I can't wait to play in. So let's jump right into what we learned.</div>
<div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); font-family: '.Helvetica NeueUI'; text-align: left;">
<br>
The first thing we went over was brow shaping. How to clean them up....meaning where the brow should begin...arch...then end, filling them in (using pencil and powder products), and then highlighting the brow-bone area. One awesome tip that she let us in on was using Ben Nye's banana powder after using concealer under the brows. This not only acts as a very nice and natural highlight but will keep your eyebrows...well the products...from running down your face on those hot summer days. (I'll be trying this out for sure.) She told us some of her favorite brow products and brushes to experiment with and find out what works best for us.<br>
<br>
We then talked about eye shadow application brushes. Now, you use what works for you...but these are just the basics. You've got your regular <a href="http://content.eyeslipsface.com/gallery_big/1815_eye-shadow-brush_zoom.jpg">eye shadow brush</a>. They come in a variety of sizes for whatever amount of area you intend to cover. Usually the denser brushes pick up the most product to achieve a more vibrant color payoff. You then have your <a href="http://content.eyeslipsface.com/gallery_big/10100_1803_A_900px_deptImg.jpg._deptImg.jpg">blending brushes</a> or fluffy dome brush. These are intended to blend out the harsh lines after packing on your color with the eye shadow brush. Then there's the <a href="http://d32svxnx7l24ib.cloudfront.net/databaseimages/164.jpg?width=1000">crease brush</a>. This brush allows you to define your crease and/or concentrate the color in one specific area.<br>
<br>
Now...let's talk about what I consider my everyday/wear to work eye and how to achieve it. I know it's easier to explain via video but as most of you know I am still on a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/msmickey1908">YouTube</a> hiatus (we will talk about that in a separate blog post) so you will have to use your imagination...or simply how you would apply eye shadow lol.<br>
1. Prime eyes - this can be done with an eye shadow primer or whatever concealer or foundation you use. It's just something to help keep your shadow from creasing. My current favorite is the <a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.com/elf/eyes/concealers_and_primers/eyelid_primer">ELF Eye Lid Primer</a>.<br>
2. Base eyes - this is a product that is used to help make your shadows stick to your lids. Your choice of color depends on the color shadow you are using. My current favorite is the <a href="http://www.nyxcosmetics.com/p-6-jumbo-eye-pencil.aspx">NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil</a>. <br>
3. Pack on the shadow - pick up some shadow from the pan using your eye shadow brush and tap off the excess to prevent fall-out. Put the shadow all over your lid but try not to put this shadow above your crease.<br>
4. Blend! - the edges of the lid color need to look like it's fading into your skin. Here you can use a transition color that is similar to your skin tone to blend out your lid color.<br>
5. Define your crease - here is where you want to use your crease brush to make your eyes stand out. On the outer portion of your eye, use a darker shadow to deepen where your eye meets your brow-bone.<br>
6. Line your eyes - with a liquid, gel, or pencil...line your top lash line and lower water line. For some added sultry-ness, smudge the liner on the lower lash line just a bit.<br>
7. Mascara and/or lashes - no explanation needed lol<br>
<br>
Smoky eyes anyone? This is one of my favorite looks. You don't have to just do a black smoky eye...smoke out a color for fun. Here's how Brittany taught us to do it. Follow steps 1-4 above. For step 4 if you're doing say a black smoky eye...use a mid-tone brown to blend out the edges of the black. Again, line your eyes...especially the bottom and here you definitely want to smudge shadow or liner on the lower lash line. Add your mascara and lashes and your red carpet ready! lol.<br>
<br>
I'll keep all of you posted on the next class that Brittany has...you surely won't want to miss it! I hope you enjoyed my recap and now I'm off to try a colorful smoky eye...wish me luck!!!<br>

<i><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">"Brittany Rogers has been a Make-up Artist just a few years, but has been enhancing faces since high school. Brittany born in Washington D.C always had a sense of style and a creative ability. Brittany studied Make-up artistry at <a href="http://www.bennettcareerinstitute.org/">Bennett Career Institute</a>, in a little over a year, Brittany had worked on up to three hundred faces of different skins tones, textures and types. Brittany has been the Key Makeup Artist for Emerge Fashion runway show for New York fashion week and at such a young age her work has been published in Touch Magazine and Black Hair Magazine. Today you can find Brittany creating new looks, sweating it out on the location of a photo-shoot or putting final touches on flawless face"</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); font-family: '.Helvetica NeueUI'; text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was really excited about taking this class as it was my first real makeup class and I am eager to to get out there and start creating my portfolio. What I wanted to get out of this class was the fundamentals...you know, the basics. And Brittany taught us just that. She outlined everything step by step...the way you would normally do a face of makeup. Now while I think that one should learn from many sources and tailor to their own needs...I believe she helped us create the foundation on how to complete a clean face of makeup. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We briefly talked about skin care and she told us some of her go-to products for maintaining healthy skin. We also discussed the different skin types (normal, dry, oil, and combination) and what products to use and not to use on each. She mentioned exfoliating at least twice a week, but too much may harm your skin. Brittany also emphasized the importance of your diet...fruits, veggies, and water is a must! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">She then started to talk about "Prep/Prime/Moisturize" (but not in that order)...that was a little jingle that Brittany taught us to remember how we should start off each and every makeup look. I hadn't been in the habit of using a primer but I have a few of them on my "to get" list. We then went into brows and she let us know that they should be sisters...not twins or cousins lol. I made note of another product that I will be getting (<a href="http://www.nyxcosmetics.com/p-60-auto-eyebrow-pencil.aspx">NYX auto brow pencil</a>) as my Kevyn Aucoin one is on it's last leg (insert sad face here). We moved on to concealers (thank you <a href="http://www.lagirlusa.com/Pro-Conceal-2243.html">LA Girl</a> for my new Pro Concealer) and correctors and the uses for each color (green, orange, purple, yellow, pink ,and grey). Brittany explained the various types of foundations (cream, stick. liquid, iridescent, and sheer or tinted moisturizers) and also guided us on how to determine peoples undertones. She told us the consistency of each and how they should be applied. Now the next thing we talked about was where I get the most nervous...highlighting and contouring. She gave us a face chart (<a href="http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/550x/00/d3/ec/00d3ec3ab360b3ce96ccc359d2027a3a.jpg">click here to see an example</a>) and shared with us exactly how to get from the face chart to a perfectly blended finish. Before attempting to apply everything to our own faces, we quickly talked about blush placement (by the way, I had been applying mine somewhat wrong...eek!) and bronzing. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I learned so much from this class and it really helped me to know where I need to practice and polish my skills. Brittany was a great teacher and was able to answer any question that was thrown her way. Her team of assistants was very helpful as well...thank you to them. And her family was extra sweet and very supportive of her. She will be having more classes coming up soon and I will be sure to let all of you know when they are and how you can register. If you're just starting out in the makeup artistry industry like me...you won't want to miss her classes!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As many of you know I had a dilemma a while ago trying to decide if I wanted to pursue my love and passion for makeup artistry (<a href="http://fabulouslyflawedbeauty.blogspot.com/2012/02/which-way-do-i-go.html">click here to read</a>) and I decided to go for it! I have been practicing my make up skills, learning various techniques, and doing lots of research. But it would not be at all possible if it weren't for my Partners in Pretty...especially my coach/mentor <a href="http://shanajanelle.com/">Shana Janelle</a>. She answers what I feel are silly questions...and if she feels its something I need to figure out on my own...she points me in the right direction and says "Go find the answer yourself!" She won't always hand me what I want or need on a silver platter and for that I am truly grateful!</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); font-family: '.Helvetica NeueUI'; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Recently Shana asked me to come along and assist her with a bridal party. She told me to bring my brushes as she may need me to do some light work. Boy was I in for a ride! She threw me to the sharks and I had to sink or swim. Needless to say I didn't want to let her down or embarrass myself. It was crunch time and I had to do this! Luckily there was a game plan which helped me to not be so nervous...but I still had butterflies. Ok they were more like huge waves that made me sea sick and light headed lol. But I jumped right in and went to work. I followed Shana with what she did and was able to get the job done. The clients were very nice and made my first makeup experience comfortable. (I'm sad I didn't get any pictures.) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I assume I did a good job because Shana asked me to come assist her on another gig this past weekend. This time I was a little less nervous and was more comfortable with my application. And again the party was very energetic and made it a really easy going experience. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have signed up for my very first makeup class this coming Sunday and I'm super excited to learn as much as I can (I will post that experience next week). I hope to be as good as my mentor one day as she has inspired me to jump into this thing without a life-vest on. I will update you all as I embark on this new journey...I know it won't be easy but I have to build my confidence and keep telling myself...I CAN DO THIS!!! </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At the advice of my mentor, I have decided to branch out and try some new makeup products. (Review on them later.) I tried out the <a href="http://revlon.com/">Revlon Colorstay</a> foundation in Golden Caramel,<a href="http://lagirlusa.com/"> LA Girls</a> pro concealer in Medium Beige, and <a href="http://maccosmetics.com/">MACs</a> invisible setting powder. I also picked up a lilac lipgloss at the beauty supply store and thought I might as well do a lilac look. So here it is. Below is a list of all the products I used to achieve this look. Enjoy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ok...so I totally forgot to post how I got this look. Please forgive me lol. Just a little background on how/why I chose this look. While hanging out with one of my partners in crime we were sipping on some Tequila Sunrise. I thought the color combination was perfect for a makeup look...but I wanted to mix it up a little bit. I got home and attempted to make a Tequila Sunrise for the hubby but realized that we only had a darker orange colored juice to add to it. Perfect! I'll do a sunset (or as I call it...Sunrise Remix) look! So I searched for a sunset look to inspire me and I stumbled upon a beautiful orange and pink smoky eye (see <a href="http://instagram.com/c_flower">@c_flower's</a> look <a href="http://instagram.com/p/ZFAKQiu0hI/">here</a>) and I decided to recreate it. And this is what I came up with. Also, check out my girl <a href="http://instagram.com/itsjustmenai">@itsjustmenai</a> Tokyo Tea inspired eyeshadow look <a href="http://instagram.com/p/ZZUOAUJNua/">here</a>. I hope you enjoy! </span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/">MAC Cosmetics</a> is on it with yet another collection. And I believe it to be right on time after last night's <a href="http://www.vogue.com/topics/met-gala/">MET Gala</a> theme...Punk: Chaos to Couture. The Punk Couture Collection is described as "<i>Punk's rebel spirit and revolutionary impact on fashion inspires an exclusively-online collection of hautecore colours, superbly M∙A∙C. Lips and nails attract all the right attention in blackened plums and deep burgundy, while Fluidline and Liquid Eye Liner give intense definition for that daringly gorgeous glare.</i>" Below is a list of items available in this collection (all permanent I believe, but please correct me if I am incorrect). While I was hoping for some neon and eye popping colors, I think this is a nice collection for the inner punk in all of us. Will you be purchasing any of this collection? </span><br />

I started to do my makeup for the night and thought...hmmm, I haven't done a classic smoky eye in a while. So that's just what I did. And since I was wearing black and white I just knew a pop of color on the lip was needed. Below is a list of what I used to achieve this look. Enjoy!<br />
<br />
On the face:<br />
Kevyn Aucoin brow pencil in Brunette<br />
Kevyn Aucoin skin enhancer for concealer<br />
MAC studio fix powder foundation in NC 43<br />
Milani blush in Mai Tai<br />
Ruby Kisses mineral powder in Cognac as a contour<br />
<br />
On the eyes:<br />
Wet n' Wild Vanity palette light brown above crease, medium brown in crease<br />
MAC Mystery slightly below the crease<br />
ELF natural palette very dark brown on the lid<br />
Rimmel London day to night mascara (both lengthening and volume sides)<br />
<br />

And I thought eventually the acne will go away and I will be fine. Well...I'm now in my 30's and still have problem skin. I've tried just about every acne treatment under the sun and its either too harsh or not harsh enough. So I've been on the hunt for a good facial regime to help get rid of some if the unwanted breakouts I get. I watched my go to MUA's, </span><a href="http://www.shanajanelle.com/" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">ShanaJanelle</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">, video on how she got clear skin and thought to try out some of her methods and products being as though we have similar skin types. Check out her video <a href="http://youtu.be/upOvcCAPe-U">here</a>!</span></div><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">I've tried the <a href="http://us.eminenceorganics.com/Pear-Poppy-Seed-Microderm-Polisher_p_46.html">Eminence Pear & Poppy Seed microderm polisher</a> facial scrub she spoke of and it was like heaven on my face (and lips)! I used that before going to bed 3 times a week and then used peroxide, a night cream and <a href="http://www.neolips.com/lip-care-products">Neosporin lip health daily hydration</a>. Every morning I use <a href="http://www.target.com/p/up-up-blackhead-scrub-5-oz/-/A-11573875">Target's Up & Up Black head facial scrub</a> with salicylic acid and again use peroxide, a light moisturizer and Neosporin lip health.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">While I haven't been as consistent as I'd like, I do see the results of this combination if products. With spring and summer approaching I've decided to be proactive and get clear skin before the heat and humidity approach us. I am going to practice this routine as consistently as possible...with one minor change. Instead of the Eminence microderm polisher, I will be using a home made product that is just as effective. Sea salt and olive oil...that's right, you can make this right at home and can be used as a lip and body scrub as well! (You know I'm all about cutting costs.)</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">So here is a picture of me today (Monday)...no makeup and fabulously flawed! I will report back in 1 week with an update and again in 2 weeks. I hope this helps and let me know if you've tried a new skin care regime.</span> <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc3iLDcSzcqULDuxGxvhdsoZ5Mzw2sYqgto-ksgzLuJy33TWG1DOc4cZFiSXudTtsUM4BKv10zK0CB8s5EjVbLShNP1NDZlELHLzX05lG1crt3wNWcRteSJyH_0UNQz-vmfsLK43HUYBY/s640/blogger-image--1960030106.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgc3iLDcSzcqULDuxGxvhdsoZ5Mzw2sYqgto-ksgzLuJy33TWG1DOc4cZFiSXudTtsUM4BKv10zK0CB8s5EjVbLShNP1NDZlELHLzX05lG1crt3wNWcRteSJyH_0UNQz-vmfsLK43HUYBY/s640/blogger-image--1960030106.jpg" /></a></div>Pretty_Mickeyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00618671433118522474noreply@blogger.com2
