Giella Cosmetics

Ever wanted that perfect eye shadow or lip color and have searched endlessly through various brands for it? I just have to let you know of this amazing brand I have started using. It's called Giella! You get to custom make your own make up.

Mario Dedivanovic is a huge fan and uses it on Kim Kardashian. He is especially a huge fan of B-Dazzle, which is a gold shimmery eye shadow. It is great for the inner corners of the eye. This eye shadow is combined of 12 different ingredients that all help to brighten your eyes. It is definitely a must have!

Giella is also great if you ever buy limited edition make up. As soon as you are running low of your favorite lipstick, eyeshadow etc. just bring it over to Giella and they will create an identical one for you. Now you will never have to worry about using your favorite lipstick worrying that you will run out of it!

Beauty Blender

The trickiest part of doing my make up everyday is applying my foundation. I've tried them all and have tried various ways to apply it. Many of the compact foundations come with a sponge, however, you will soon find yourself wasting half of the foundation while it gets absorbed in the sponge. Same goes for face wedges, they soak up more of the foundation than what goes on your face. Many make up artists will suggest using a foundation brush, which is definitely better than the sponge, however, it does take some skill to apply. 

I recently came across the Beauty Blender. I bought it and tried it at home and it worked amazingly well!! You can buy them online at sephora.com You wet the beauty blender and then squeeze out the excess water. This makes the blender moist so that it won't absorb as much foundation and more of it will go on your skin. There are various techniques to then apply it on your face. Visit www.beautyblender.net to learn more about the product. I promise you its totally worth it! Also be sure to watch Kim Kardashian's make up artist, Mario, talk about this product and give other useful make up tips.

I love following Troy Jensen and Mario Dedivanovic's blogs. Kim Kardashian constantly blogs about them and many people have started following them. 

They are both extremely artistic and I love getting tips on make up and various products from them.
