Makeup Tip #5 Hard Habit to Break

Remember all those awesome Runway Looks I told you about. Boy did I have fun doing them on this beautiful flawless model. She looked amazing. Actually, she'd look amazing in a gunny sack..

 
Now that it has hit the stands, I can share the Spring Fashion Shoot with you via Luxury Las Vegas Magazine.



These were my faves of the bunch.  Now I you know you all wanna go out and buy orange eyeshadow and tomato red lipstick for spring right?  Just kidding.

I myself find breaking the makeup routine difficult.  Especially as I age.  Yesterday, we were going out on a date, so I decided to try a new makeup look on myself.  I used a product on my eyelids that I love to use at work and never use at home.  It was a disaster, it looked aweful.  Now tell me why is it I have trouble with makeup???  I'll tell you..  My face isnt young and flawless anymore.  In fact I have very crepe-y eyelids, due to a bout with psoriasis in 2000 that was all over my eyelids and underneath my eyes.  The only thing that made it go away was a cream that thinned out my skin so badly, I have 80 year old eyelids.  I've managed to find products that don't accentuate the wrinkles.  But Ugh! It sux..   Anyway I digress..

My point is, perhaps the same old same old isnt so bad.  I decided to continue to live by my 5 minute rule.  "If you can slap it on in 5 minutes and feel good about yourself, then you've done a great makeup."  So what if you like your blue eyeshadow from the 80's, if you carry well... you go gurl..

So I'll pass on the orange eyeshadow this season, I might consider the lipstick.  However the foundation, loose powder, blush mascara routine I've been doing since 1990 will stay with me for now...

See even I cant break the makeup habit..   Have you changed your makeup routine lately?
