Late Night Beauty Call: Erykah Badu

Late Night Beauty Call Erykah Badu 3

Fashion designers and beauty enthusiasts concur that Erykah Badu is a bonafide icon.  From her sultry and anthem lyrical masterpieces to her striking natural beauty, Erykah is truly in a class all by herself.  Due to her uniqueness we couldn’t wait to make Miss Badu our beauty of the night.

As usual we had difficulties settling on one look so we chose to narrow it down to two. The first look is a classic red lip (major trend for this season).  Erykah just looks too cool for school and demontrates that when applied correctly a strong makeup look does not have to overpower your fashions. Badu’s accessories are already intensely bold yet her makeup simply complements her overall look without exerting dominance.

For the second favorite beauty look we just had to showcase Badu looking au natural. Bare face is the new glamour makeup look. Your beautiful just the way you are so take a page from Erykah’s book and flaunt it!

AJ Crimson Cosmetics Mixer

AJ Crimson Cosmetics

Celebrity makeup artist, AJ Crimson, is the innovator and creator behind a new line of cosmetics that is set to become the makeup of makeup artists the world over. We recently had the privilege of attending a mixer hosted by AJ Crimson and the good people over at Beauty Frends in regards to the new brand. We were instantly blown away during Crimson’s makeup demonstration. Here’s why:

*BB Cream and Foundation shades literally cover ALL skin tones. Many lines make this claim, but AJ’s makeup is bar none in this area. Whether your skin tone is closer to Tyra Banks or Alek Wek you will find the tint that matches you perfectly.

*You don’t need a whole bunch of products to highlight, contour or add color to your eyes and cheeks. You can just use AJ’s foundations to achieve a “beat” face.

*Used to having to set your makeup before you can walk away from the mirror? This step is no longer necessary, just apply and go.

*The model during the demo had tattoos and Crimson’s foundation made them disappear, like POOF, gone. Even up close you would never think any tattoos had previously been there (see picture below). Just think what that means if you are needing to cover some sort of blemish or acne. It will literally disappear before your eyes.

*You no longer have to look like a cake face to look flawless. AJ’s makeup ensures that you achieve a glowing, natural look.

Alicia and I (Arianne) were able to get matched by the cosmetics genius himself and we have been loving the results! Be sure to check out our future additional posts regarding AJ Crimson’s amazing brand. Happy Monday and enjoy the pics and video!

Black Nails Summer 2014

Black Nails Summer 2014

Now here’s something that you normally don’t see in the realm of beauty. Noire tinted nails during the spring and summer seasons. Warmer months are usually characterized by lighter shades such as pastels and neon colors.

However, why not wear black during summer? Why must darker shades be relegated to the depths of wintertime? Well, the runway broke the mold this year as models were seen with various nail designs that included solid black nail polish. Personally, we love this rule breaking look it’s sassy, daring with a spoonful of mischievous fun. So then, never be afraid to dance to the beat of your own drum or paint your nails the color of your choosing. Seasons change, so why shouldn’t the rules of beauty also?

What do you think of this summer nail trend, will you wear it?
