allure magazine april 2011

Have you received and read this month/April 2011 issue of allure?  I just read it today and I felt compelled to write/post about it and Laura Mercier makeup that is all over the issue.


So first I'll will start with talking about Laura Mercier's new Baked Eye Colour Shadows!!
From top left to bottom right:  Black Karat, Lagoon, Violet Sky, Ballet Pink, Pink Petal, Terracotta

This is Black Karat first applied dry, then applied wet for more pigment...love this color!
The new Baked colors are used either wet or dry, and both day or night!


Who doesn't want a flawless look to their face when wearing makeup or applying makeup?  Laura Mercier tells/explains all about achieving her flawless look!  Here's how.....

You must prime the skin!  Laura has her original primer, oil-free primer, mineral primer & hydrating primer.  This pretty much covers every skin type!



Now pick your appropriate foundation.  Laura Mercier has 3 different tinted moisturizers (illuminating,oil-free & original), hydrating foundation, silk foundation, mineral foundation, and creme smooth foundation.



Here are a few of the wide range of color/shade options that Laura Mercier provides.


This is great placement to pick your correct color/shade to best match your neck and face so everything blends naturally and flawlessly.


Now after your foundation is blended and smoothed into your skin and you have concealed around the eyes and/or anything that needs concealed on the face....you must set your foundation with a powder.



Using the wide fan brush to lightly stroke the invisible loose setting powder, allows better blush color blending and bronzer blending over top a liquid or creme foundation.

Interested in trying Laura Mercier?  Go to your nearest SAKS 5th Avenue or Nordstrom store.  A counter representative would love to help you and apply as many shades you would like!
