Quick Experiment: Creating nude lips using concealer & gloss
By retail_therapy · December 30, 2009 · 10 Comments · 102 Views
Hi!
One reader was asking me if nude lips can be created using a foundation/concealer followed by a lipgloss… and I thought that would make a rather fun and useful blog post. I tried on two conealer shades in this experiment, and I will explain everything along the way!
Step One: This is my natural lip color without any products.
First I used NYX Concealer in a Jar (Porcelene) which is frankly too pale for me as a concealer. As you can see, this color erases my lip color completely, too pale and ghastly for my liking. It also looks drying, especially on the lower lip.
Then, I applied MAC’s Underage lipglass over, for some definition and texture.
Still very pale, but I will show you the whole face to put things into perspective.
Then I tried another concealer, which is the peachy shades in the Ben Nye concealer wheel. These are darker in tone. Again, very drying on the lips. I don’t think the difference is very obvious in the pictures.
The verdict?? I think if you like really nude lips, you can certainly try this out! Kind of drying on the lips though, and also, I guess you can do this as a last resort, if you want to explore the whole pale/ nude lips thingy, but not sure if you want to pay for a nude lipstick at MAC or something, because we know it is hard to find a nice nude lipstick at drugstore price range – though I highly recommmend NYX round lipsticks for cheap alternatives.
That’s all, and happy holidays!
I am thinking my first entry for 2010 will be a product rave….and I guess you have a pretty good idea what that will be.

Givenchy New Impressions Collection for Spring 2010/Summer 2010
For Spring/Summer, Givenchy launches New Impressions, designed by Nicolas Degennes.
I LOVE the design of this mascara brush, but if you are on a budget you can get this same design brush try Loreal, I personally recommend it and use it on my clients as well.
Polish is still in the shimmer mode. Just like for this Winter Season, but smaller particles, but still shimmer!These Eyes I just had to show you, they are THE BOMB, to be honest I can’t wait to try them myself and on my clients as well. So here they are and the color pallets that follow as I mentioned can be duplicated at a less expensive price. But if you can afford it then by ALL means go for it.
One of the reasons I love makeup is that it does give you the ability to create looks without having to spend a fortune. So BE CREATIVE!!!

Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and appearance. I must say that you’ve done a great job with this. Additionally, the blog loads very fast for me on Safari. Exceptional Blog!
Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored to death at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I really like the information you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how quick your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, wonderful site!
In the years that I have been a makeup artist the question that I receive most especially in recent years is in regards to the LIPS. Everbody wants full, plump, juicy, lips, Angelina Jolie came on the scene and all of a sudden BIG LIPS were in. Africian American women have had these lips for centuries but it became fashionable when she arrived on the scene.
Step one: always start with a smooth mouth, this can be created with several products but the one that I have found that I like to use and it is very reasonable is “lip appeal” by Beauticontrol Cosmetics. It comes in a container and has a mask on the top which you apply to the lips and let dry then wipe off, taking off all of the dry skin with it. After that the bottom has a lip balm that I then apply and rub into the lips until absorbed.

Hey there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips for newbie blog writers? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
