Urban Decay Lip Primer

Does your lipstick or lip gloss wear off easily. Ever noticed that your dark lipstick bleeds. You want to combat the problem but do not know what will help you. Well we have the answer to that question. Today’s product review is on Urban Decay’s Lip Primer.

The invisible primer lays a silky foundation for lipstick or lip gloss. The application is smooth, lasts throughout the day and does not fade or feather. It’s an easy glide on formula which feels velvety soft, minus the dry feeling. The primer comes with an SPF 15 and is enriched with Vitamin A, C and E which protects and perfects the lips.

Our Take – Though a very good product, it’s not readily available in the Indian Market.

Market Price- $20 approx.

We hope that our previous blog on MAC’s foundation and concealer was helpful. Today we are going to talk about two more products from the Everyday Makeup Tutorial. The products that we used were:

Nars Blush – The shade that was used in the video was in the shade Deep Throat. Nars offers industry’s most iconic shades for the cheeks. Its natural healthy-looking color immediately enlivens the complexion. Even a light application of the highest intensity hues delivers a natural looking flush. It has a silky texture in matte and shimmering shades. Micronized powder ensures soft blendable application.

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick – It’s a well known brand. In the colorbust line, there are about 13 shades from reds to peaches to pinks to browns. The one that was used in the video was in the shade Lilac. The lipsticks are rich in color with featherlight feel. The colors are long lasting and do not flake on the lips.

Our Take – Nars is a high end brand and is not readily available in India. If you are traveling abroad, we say do check out the product. Revlon on the other hand is easy on the pocket and readily available in the Indian Market. We say “Go get it”.

As we get ready to welcome 2010, we at yourstylentrend.com think it is imperative to take into consideration the makeup trends that will be ushered in with the New Year so that we are never out of style.

We do a quick trend check of the 2010 Makeup Trends, Read the complete Makeup Trends 2010    article in the Trends Makeup Section of our site yourstylentrend.com.

2010 gives us a lot of options when it comes to make up, from a very Natural Look to very colorful makeup; both the looks are going to be equally popular. That is to say that if Pale Skin is going to be popular at one end then shades of green, blue, hot pink, yellow and purple is also going to be equally popular.

EYES: Smokey Eye still remains very popular.Thick black and brown eyebrows are a definite make-up trend for 2010.

LIPS: Here also we have a lot of options, from Peach Lips with minimal make-up to Very Light Purple. Red Lips are still popular for evenings

HAIR: The trend for next year would mostly be natural soft color and short hair cut with a bit of length behind. As for long hair, the style would be a three-layer haircut.

We leave you with some tips for makeup in winters:

•  Dry Skin is a fact of winters and we all learn to deal with it in our own way. But dry skin plays havoc with make-up and we have to learn to deal with it also. To avoid the telltale flakes after the application of foundation be sure to keep your skin moisturized. Follow a regular routine: moisturize daily and exfoliate a couple times a week.
• You can also add a bit of lotion to your liquid foundation to get a smooth finish.
• Drink Lots of water as it helps in maintaining skin hydration, all said this is best way to a healthy-looking and glowing skin always.
