Easy Daily Makeup

In celebration of Nascar Camping World Truck Series racer Jennifer Jo Cobb bringing the first ever makeup sponsorship to Nascar we are running a series of makeup tutorials showing how to get Jen’s various looks using products from LillysCosmetics.com

Jennifer will be wearing a LillysCosmetics.com pink firesuit this coming weekend as she races the final race of the season at Homestead in Miami, in her pink LillysCosmetics.com #10 truck.
Now that we’re only 2 days away from the big race we’re going to show you a simple day to day makeup look that you can do using products from LillysCosmetics.com

This look is all about being quick and efficient, doing something fabulous when you only have 10 minutes til you have to be out the door.
1.) With the clock running, do a high speed under eye concealer, and blend it out with your finger til its nice and sheer.
2.) Follow that with some speedy foundation – try Mineral Powder foundation, swirled on with a powder brush.
3.) Use a Brow Definer Pencil to fill in and feather through your brows. This will pull your look together and make it complete.
4.) With a synthetic camouflage brush apply Vanilla Eyesicles Eye Color from the lash line across the lids, working it in evenly and fading it out just above the crease of the eye.
5.) With an Angle Blender brush pick up some Copper Glow Mineral Eye Color and sweep it from side to side through the crease and slightly above the crease of the eye. Turn the brush to its flat side and press color into the outer corners of the eyes.
6.) Run some Deep Brown Eyeliner Pencil through the lash line, and smudge it a little so that it doesn’t look too heavily lined. Follow this with a couple of high speed coats of Ultimate Black mascara.
7.) Dust some Desert Sun Shimmer Mineral Bronzing Powder across the areas the sun would hit – the forehead, tops of the cheekbones, bridge of the nose and a little on the chin. This will liven your look up and make you look fresh and sunkissed. Even in mid-winter!
8.) Jen loves Berry tones and deep browns when it comes to lipsticks, so line your lips with Dark Berry liner and fill them in with Boysenberry Cream lipstick.

Still got a minute to spare? Use the Facial Highlighting Pen at the inner and outer corners of the eye, the upper cheekbone, and anywhere else you’d like to reflect a little light. Keep the Facial Highlighting pen in your handbag for touch ups throughout the day.

Intelligent Nutrients Anti Aging Mist

I am intrigued with this product, although I haven’t tried it yet. I found out about the Intelligent Nutrients Line via Gwyneth Paltrow and her fabulous GOOP website.

Gwyneth’s skin always looks incredible, so this line is no doubt well worth looking into.

The product I’m so fascinated with is the Anti Aging Mist ($35)

From what I understand, this is a pre-serum spray. I can never get enough products, so love adding any extra steps into my skin care regimen!
You spray this mist onto the skin, then apply your serum, then moisturizer, then SPF.
You can reapply this throughout the day, spritzing your skin as needed
What it does:
* prevent and correct signs of aging
* feeds, protects and restores the skin
* provides refreshment and hydration to the skin.

Good for all skin types, this product is silicone free, paraben free, contains no petrochemicals and no synthetic fragrances.

This one would be a great product to keep in your handbag to revive your makeup (or your bare skin) during the day, and keep you looking fresh and gorgeous through the holiday party season.
Great stocking stuffer too!

Eric The Vampire, All The Way From Australia

While I was in Australia this summer,

I was avidly reading their fabulous magazines,

especially Grazia (www.grazia.com.au),

where I found this fun piece on our favorite vampire:

10 Things We Love About 

Alexander Skarsgard

Pictures pilfered from the internet

1. Series 3 of True Blood reveals more about Eric

“its all about vengence. You find out early on that 1000 

years ago Eric lost someone – now he’s getting the 

opportunity to avenge that death”. 

 

2. He loves getting naked.

“I’m from Sweden… its different there. If it makes sense,

I’ll do it – and its made sense everytime I’m naked on 

the show.” Note to producers: More please!

3. A child star in Sweden he stopped acting

because he hated fame, but then decided while in the marines

to try it again. “In the marines it was mentally and physically

very tough – I hated it.”

4. He makes vampires look like the good guys.

“Alex is gorgeous. The camera loves him,” says True Blood producer Alan Ball. “He’s a sweetheart – he brings the role to life.”

Damn Straight! 

5. When Lady Gaga asked him

to be in her Paparazzi music video he had no idea 

who she was and had never heard her music

6

6. Although his dad is actor Stellan

Skarsgard of Mama Mia fame, the family were poor when he was a child.For years his favorite toy was a drum kit he made out of tea caddies.

(personally, I can’t quite picture a drum kit made out of tea caddies…)

7. He’s won the Sexiest Man

in Sweden accolade 

Five Times!! 

OK we can’t think of too many other famous, sexy

Swedes, but still he most definitely gets our vote!

( and I concur…)

8

8. His next projects will be

Battleship ( a big screen version of the board game), Melancholia co-starring Kirsten Dunst and dad Stellan

and Straw Dogs opposite girlfriend Kate Bosworth 

9. He’s a romantic.

He says it will ‘rain in hell” before he is unfaithful

(really??) notices a girls eyes before he notices

anything else, and claims he inherited his charm from

his grandmother.

1

10. He has simple pleasures.

“My favorite things are fishing and lying in front of the fire, drinking red wine”

If only we could do that with you Alexander!
