Madame Madeline

This post is going to be specifically for women.  I found a really websit  that sells false eyelashes at really great prices.  If you are a makeup artist you may find it very economical to order lashes in bulk on this website.  Orders totaling at least $100 gets free shipping.
The website is Madame Madeline.

Madame Madeline sells multiple brands of false eyelashes.  They carry eyelashes by Ardell, Andrea, Bulls Eye, Red Cherry, Eyelure, Revlon, Sherani, Gypsie Lashes, Elise and many more.  The eyelashes come in different lengths, thickness, curl, you name it.  There are so many styles to choose from.  Earlier this year I ordered quite a few styles and was very pleased.  Shipping was not that expensive and I received my order very quickly and very well packaged.  I was very impressed.


I love false eyelashes because my own are so short and thin.  I also have very big eyes that really look a lot better framed by lashes that can be seen.  And to be honest, false eyelashes are a part of my girlie girl image.  I find them to be very feminine which I love.  


Treat yourself to some beautiful eyelashes from Madame Madeline.  
If you do please let me know how you like them.

Cream to Powder Foundations & Bronzer Powders

I love cream to powder foundations.  They are creamy and provide medium coverage.  Iman offers women of color a great range of colors.  


Avon now offers women of color a selection of makeup just for us.  I am currently using their cream to powder foundation in rich espresso daily.  It is a great match to my skin tone.  

 Another product that I love is this bronzer powder from the Queen Collection by Covergirl.  The color I use is called Ebony Bronze which is shown here.  

More bronzer powders in the Queen Collection. 


Makeup Brands


I really am a sucker for makeup.  I love it!  I don't wear a lot of makeup, but I do love wearing it.  It is all connected to my love of being a girlie girl.  Makeup not only makes me feel pretty but it is fun to apply it as well.  How I wish that You Tube was around when I came of age and was allowed to even wear makeup.  You can find anything on You Tube and it is so nice to watch videos by makeup artists or just other women who are great at applying makeup.  You learn so much from them about how to apply makeup to enhance your best features.  You Tube is also a great way to learn about new makeup products.  As a woman of color it took a lot of trial and error to find makeup that complements my skin tone the best but at the same time is not expensive.  There are certain brands of makeup that I favor more than others.  They are Covergirl's Queen Collection, Iman Cosmetics, La FemmeNYX and E.L.F which stands for Eyes, Lips Face.


   






Some other brands of makeup that I like are Graftobian, Coastal Scents and good old Maybelline.   Oh  yes I nearly forgot to mention Avon
