Celebrity Makeup News and Blogs:

We’ve all heard some pretty wacky skin, hair and body advice, but can you tell the tips that actually work from made up nonsense? We dare you to try. You hear them all the time. Your well-meaning grandma probably has more than a few. Makeup counter salespeople are notorious for theirs and smiley TV talk show correspondents love nothing more than to drone on (and on) about them. Yes, beauty tips — solicited or not — abound. The hitch? Not all of them are bona fide and more than a few can actually work against your beauty rather than enhance it.

Mask That Oily Skin

From what I’ve been reading in the comments for The Makeup Wakeup book giveaway, several of you have the issue of oily or acne prone skin. We had hoped in our adult years this would not be an issue, but frustratingly for many it is.

I personally have an oily T zone and it’s worse in the summer. I don’t have many breakouts, but occasional ones. Erno Laszlo may have a way to help these issues with their new Beta Mask. It’s a detoxifying mask created for blemish prone skin, but not harsh like so many products for acne can be. There is 1% salicylic acid which is great for exfoliating, but you’ll definitely smell the eucalyptus when using this. Strong enough to open the air passages when taking a deep breath when wearing this, but not so intense that it would be irritating. Eucalyptus and peppermint are in it for antibacterial purposes, needed to kill off the bacteria in acne prone skin. Beta Mask is not real drying either – another issue than can occur with so many other oil-control products. 

For me, during the summer when I am definitely more oily this will be very handy to help control the oil. 

Sample packet was sent for testing purposes.

Congratulations to Ann S – I’m sure the book will help give you a new look with your new job! 

 

Have you picked up The Makeup Wakeup yet? I told you a few months back that I got a sneak peek of the book by Sandy Linter and Lois Joy Johnson after I ran into Sandy Linter on my flight back from the Redbook MVP testing in NYC. But, I didn’t get my actual hands on MY own book till a few days ago – and I haven’t been able to put it down since! 

It’s like having your own personal celebrity makeup artist at your fingertips. 

This is a fabulous book on makeup for women over 40! Let’s face it, most all beauty books available are for women in their 20′s or maybe 30′s, but we have different beauty needs than when we were that young. This book gives you tips on what you can do to look fresher, younger without surgery and they also consult two top dermatologists and a cosmetic surgeon for those seeking those options. 

You get close-up detailed photos of how to create a look, what tools you need and you are even given a list of specific beauty brands and shades recommended by Sandy. Things are tackled like dark circles, how doing your makeup the same way you did even a few years ago can age you, how to camouflage nasolabial folds or thin lips and so much more. Things that you would never hear a 20 year old worrying about. Women over 40 we’ll claim this as OURS! 

Being Sandy is Lancome’s “Beauty at Every Age Expert”, Lancome has given me a copy of the book to giveaway to one lucky reader! Here’s how you can win:

  • Enter your name in the comments (click on the crown at the top of the post)
  • Tell me what beauty issue you have that you would like tips on how to improve
  • Contest ends on Monday, April 18th at 11:59 CST

Good luck!
