Chrisette Michele: Get The Look

Get The LOOK

Chrisette Michele

An amazing Grammy Award winning singer who has penned beautiful music that speaks to the soul. Never afraid of to try something new, I love this look on her because its fresh, light and classic! It is also a way to bring in the summer.  As well as introduce color to your look, especially in you are a bit intimidated.

Complexion: Start with a great matte foundation, its ideal to match your skin dead on.  If anything please go lighter, because you can always use bronzer to make it deeper. Where if you get a foundation that is too dark, you will always have a ring around the face and neck. 

Eyes:  With Chrisette Michele, who has beautiful eyes kept it really simple. You can a bit of bronzer over the lids and line upper and lower lash line with black. Last but not least pile on the mascara.

Cheeks:  I would highlight the cheek with illuminator and NARS “Luster” on the apples of the cheeks.

Lips:   I love OCC’s Lip Tar in Demure a berry tone fuchsia. Lip Tar stays on and will complete you look for almost the entire night.

10th Day of Christmas

On the 10^th Day of Christmas my turn love gave to me….

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetic Lip Tar

Lip Tar Gifts Sets

Lip Tar is one of best-kept secrets of the make up industry. This is a new lip-gloss that made its debut about 5 or 6 months ago. Even though a dear friend and make up artist Katie Pellegrino is responsible for this creation, I still have to admit that it’s one of the BEST Lip gloss/stains out there.  I first tested these in July and fell in LOVE with them instantly.

Who:  OCC aka Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics

Why: Because there are a full range of colors and the color you see is the color that you get for hours. It’s creamy and its smooth however it’s VERY pigmented.

OCC has placed the top 5 best-selling Lip Tar shades, The kit includes Anime, which is a light neon pink the melts into the skin, Hush, which is an antique pink, Memento, a pinky-plum, Grandma, which is a classic coral and NSFW, which is a true bright red. All colors these colors flattering to our porcelain princess to our Godiva Divas. They are beautiful on every skin every skin tone.  I have used most of these on my brides this summer with rave reviews.
