Sunscreen Tip

I recently spoke with Aesthetician Angie Isbell, owner of Isbella Institute in Miami, FL about mistakes regarding our skincare routine. Here is one of the mistakes she mentioned:
“Not wearing any sun protection or adequate daily protection... An example would be accepting that the spf in your makeup is enough. This is a huge misconception. You will never get the full protection from makeup unless you layer it heavy. Make sure you use a full-spectrum spf of at least 15. An spf 30 is even better. It should protect you from both UVA and UVB rays.”

Nude Eye Tip

One of my favorite looks is a light shadow on the eye with a black or brown liner and finishing with mascara. This is great for day or if you are in a hurry to get out the door but wouldn't dream of leaving before doing something to the eyes. It is also a nice natural look. TIP: when choosing a base color for this look, be sure not to pick too light of a color. It should be around the color of your natural skin tone. Stay away from shimmery shadows all over the lid as it tends to age you. Priming the lid with a lid primer gets the true color of the shadow, makes the shadow stay for the day, and prevents a crepey look on the lid. Look for colors such as bone, wheat, bisque, butter, shell. These are common base color names.
