Chic-Shuk Secrets

I don’t know about you, but it is really hard these days (or too expensive…) to find an ecologically friendly, high quality AND natural ingredients cosmetic products.  When it comes to the basic self spa treatment like body lotion, I would like to share with you, readers, the simplest, healthy, home made lotion, using %100 percent pure coconut oil. The reason I choose  coconut oil to treat my skin, is since it is well known as an excellent massage oil, it acts effectively on all types of skins like mineral oil but with no adverse side effects, and is a safe, healthy solution for preventing dryness, delays wrinkles, sagging of skin and other skin problems! LOVE IT, and strongly recommended trying:

Refrigerate one cup of any kind of cold pressed organic coconut oil (huge attention to the `cold pressed` part!) for several hours, till gets solid, and you are ready to go! grab some with a table spoon, warm it up using your palms rub your skin and improve its condition!!!

The 32 years old Liv Tyler, Daughter of Steven Tyler, lead singer of the rock band Aerosmith and a simply natural beauty uses few of Yves St.  Laurent makeup products which she can`t live without:  “I’m hooked on Yves St. Laurent concealer”, admitted Liv. “It’s almost invisible and I put it under my eyes and stuff” For her lips, she said: “They have gorgeous old-fashioned gold tubes, and all the lipstick colors are really beautiful. They’re brilliant punk rock colors that you can’t get anywhere else, like fluorescent pink and really beautiful reds.” Well, as we already know, red is always good, however If you have yet to try one of Yves St. Laurent colors, you may wanna look at Liv Tyler`s beautiful, natural looking make-up and be inspired!

I`m probably gonna write many post about her since I admire her beauty and since she is one of my most favorite celeb! According to the little Black Book of Hollywood Beauty Secrets, Cameron Diaz uses her lipstick make up as a blusher, especially for the on-the-go touch-ups. The beauty benefits you get from wearing lipstick as blush:

1. Gives your cheeks a youthful, healthy looking glow.

2. The color coordinates your cheeks with your lips, which create high fashion photography look.

3. Matching cheeks and lips can set off other features such as long, dark, thick lashes, or great bone structure.   

In order to make sure her entire make up applications such as eye-shadows and blush is applied smoothly Cameron Diaz uses the Sonya Dakar Hydra-soft lotion, which is a great oil free moisturizer. More to that, her basic foundation smooth and clear skin maker which is the Sun-forgettable 30SPF mineral powder, helps smooth and clear skin. It is one of Diaz`s favorite duel cosmetic application: an amazing mineral facial healthy foundation make up application plus an anti wrinkles protector at the same time, thanks to its 30 SPF powers, against the aging UV rays! Two birds in one stone… mmm.. not bad!

If you ever wondered what is the most versatile shade that can be bright, playful, sultry and subtle then the answer is: Purple!  Experts say soft shades like lilac and violet are an easy way to add some pleasing color to your eye lid or when used as liner, especially if you’ve been wearing lots of neutral shades. Purple eye shadow makes green eyes pop, brown eyes brighter, and gives blue eyes a cool iciness. It is the latest hue to make an impact on the trend list. Top makeup stylists suggest that the most flattering purple is bluish lavender and that Fuchsia is the least flattering one. Always combine purples with other neutrals (golds, tans, taupes, browns) to avoid overkill.
