Makeup Forever Made Me Up.

February 4, 2013

Ever dreamt of being an artist? Or maybe just want to be able to draw or paint? Yeah, me too.  Makeup Forever Creator and Artistic Director Dany Sanz helps foster the inner dormant artist in all of us.  In 1984 Dany (a trained painter and sculptor from a Parisian suburb) while working on theatrical sets Dany realized she could create "paintings in motion" by utilizing makeup and bodypaint on stage actors. Makeup artist friends caught on and wanted more of what Dany had discovered.  Dany's opened her first Makeup Forever boutique in Paris to this day itremains there.  3 decades later she has expanded across the globe. Beloved by beauty professionals everywhere, Makeup Forever is the gold label in industry cosmetic.  And Groomed LA was lucky enough to be invited for a makeover.

Blurry eyed and caffeinated on an early Saturday morning, I met with Talia, the head makeup artist at the brand's West Hollywood location on tony Robertson Blvd.  Tall, slender and smart Talia sized up my skin color and tone. She asked me a few questions and let her fingers do the walking.  I've had makeup done by dozens of artists.  Talia one of the best.  At only 10:30 am, I  didn't want too dramatic of a look but wanted a little oomph to get me going. 

The result?  Talia left me with a glowy, dewey finish, lush lashes and glossy ripe lips.  A healthy dose of glam. My makeup remained flawless throughout the entire day. This HD stuff provides some serious coverage. 

Below are some of my favorite items Talia used:

HD Foundation Shade #120. Amazingly silky and light feel yet such.great.coverage.

Rouge Artist Natural N11 lipstick. Perfect rose color. Really.

HD Concealer #325. Dark circles? What dark circles?

Aqua Brow #10. Perfect brows.  Yowza.

Pro Finish.  One of the line's newest products and divine. 45% less talc, LONG lasting, flexible coverage that can be used wet and dry, and available in 25 shades

Customers are given their own personalized sketch afterwards to remember contouring tips and colors.

New Year, New You, New Skin! Dr. Harold Lancer Gives Us The 411 On What To ‘Toss, Keep And Buy’ In 2013

January 30, 2013

I actually personally really LOVE these tips. I took a peek at the loofah I was scrubbing my bikini line with and it was GROSS!!!  TOSSED!!

Of course I had to make sure you guys got the scoop too.  READ ON!!

‘Dermatologist to the Stars’ Dr. Harold Lancer, who shares 3 very important steps to love the skin you’re in this year.

Treating Hollywood A-listers on a regular basis in his Beverly Hills dermatological practice, Dr.Lancer knows better than anyone what it takes to achieve glowing, healthy, beautiful skin – but your bathroom counter is where it all starts. So clean your cabinets and invest in new products, and you’ll start to see a glowing 2013!

1. TOSS all cleansing brushes, cloths, loofa and pads. Skin-cleaning ‘tools’ are difficult to maintain, regardless of efforts. “After continuous use, brush bristles wear down and become softer and less effective”, says Dr. Lancer, “which means it’s less likely to deep clean. Cloths and brushes potentially harvest bacteria.” Overall, he feels they are unnecessary – with the right exfoliating product, fingers do the trick.

2. KEEP products containing rice extracts and rice derived ingredients. Rice extract is not only high in antioxidants but also anti-inflammatory (which means lower allergy potential). Rice-derived ingredients also offer and maintain anti-aging and moisturizing benefits for both short-term and long-term hydration to the skin.

3.BUY a skin-conditioning tool, like Dr. Lancer’s NEW Microcurrent Power Boost. This breakthrough hand-held vibrating device (the first of its kind) is specially developed using a pure Geranium-plated head which when glided over skin (in an upward motion over the cheek, chin, forehead and neck areas) increases blood circulation, and helps moisturizers and serums penetrate the layers of skin at deeper, more effective levels. It also boosts anti-aging benefits. The result is a more firm, refined, and luminous-looking complexion.

Lancer Skincare Microcurrent Power Boost, $225
