relaxed vibe secrets in a recent interview.

“She’s done such a good job of maintaining her sense of self amongst the spotlight,” she tells Refinery29.co.uk

https://www.refinery29.uk/2018/02/190231/meghan-markle-hair-makeup-routine-products

“Even now, her look has stayed the same. She’ll throw her hair back in a low bun and it actually looks like she’s done it herself, and it’s beautiful and chic because she’s so confident. That’s the great thing about Meghan — she’s so confident with herself and her look, and she sticks with that.”

Meghan is very in-the-know — she had her blog for a while, so she just gets beauty,” she says. “But her approach is very effortless. She just wants to look like a better version of herself. That’s something she believes firmly in.”

“Every time I’d do her makeup, she’d say, ‘Can we just make sure my freckles are peeking through? I don’t want a ton of foundation,'”

Sellers says. “It was more about the amount of product that went on her skin and keeping it really fresh and dewy, rather than caking it on. So I’d use the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation with a Beautyblender because it’s really easy to sheer out.”

 

Launched in 2000, Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation and its revolutionary texture won over millions of women and top professional make-up artists worldwide. Using exclusive Micro–fil™ technology to sculpt and brighten, this buildable, medium coverage foundation improves texture and blurs imperfections. Available in 24 shades to match every unique skin tone, offering a luminous, silky, lightweight fluid foundation for seamless application for an all-day, buildable coverage – suitable for all skin types.

 

Luminous Silk Foundation is available exclusively at Brown Thomas Dublin, Limerick, Cork and online at Brown Thomas

With a RRP €49.00 Luminous Silk is available in 19 shades.

Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge new lipsticks and packaging Launch 


Yesterday afternoon I attended the launch at The Wilde, a beautiful building on Merrion Square, Dublin 2. Surrounded by beautiful fellow artists and beauty bloggers for the launch of L’Absolu Rouge and as always the elegance and hosts were just gorgeous. 

The gorgeous Róisín Tierney Crowe introduced Lorraine Byrne the beautiful Lancôme Make Up Artist and training executive to us and Lorraine gave an in depth brief on the creation of Lancôme’s new lipstick offerings some of which have been created by the Fabulous Lisa Eldridge ( one of my favourite artists and you tubers)


I managed to get some of the samples and will be trying them on clients and myself too! 

The packaging is decadent and pretty elegant, gorgeous for gifting this Christmas and they retail at €31 and are available nationwide. 

We also were privy to a sneak peek at the Christmas collection which is gorgeously packaged in Gold casings and anyone lucky to have this collection should flaunt it every time they touch up their make up, it’s that gorgeous! 


The eyeshadow palette drew me in completely, the shades are so festive and completely wearable and designed by Lisa Eldridge herself, just stunning! Palette is €51 from Brown Thomas. 

GIORGIO ARMANI,ROUGE D’ARMANI

ROUGE D’ARMANI, THE COUTURE LIPSTICK   
 Giorgio Armani Beauty has exalted women’s beauty for 15 years, offering innovative and sophisticated formulas with ultra-natural results. All Armani beauty make-up boasts sensorial textures, refined colours and minimalist packaging.

Today, ROUGE D’ARMANI takes centre stage with Canadian actress Sarah Gadon, ambassadress of Giorgio Armani Beauty make-up.

ROUGE D’ARMANI, AN ICONIC LIPSTICK

“I love red lips, because they always look glamorous. For me, applying lipstick is a sensual step that can boost a woman’s confidence. As soon as you apply ROUGE d’ARMANI, you know that its cutting-edge formula is like no other.

It stays put for hours, without becoming dry, and glides easily over the lips to reveal a beautiful, lacquered satin finish. The ‘colour bond’ technology saturates the formula with high-quality pigments for a result that’s perfect every time.”

Linda Cantello, International Make-Up Artist Giorgio Armani

Rouge d’Armani is now a must-have Giorgio Armani make-up product for even the most demanding women. This satiny couture lipstick is used every day by make-up artists around the world.

Its gentle, lightweight formula promises exceptional colour hold and comfort for six hours straight. 

A PATENTED FORMULA FOR AN IMPECCABLE RESULT

15 years ago, the Giorgio Armani Beauty laboratories patented the “Micro-fil™” process, inspired by the couturier’s very specific choice of fabrics. Make-up was crafted like tailor-made “clothing” for the complexion with a “second skin” effect uniting radiance, sheerness and subtlety.

Adapted to lipstick, this technology now becomes “Colour Fil” thanks to the magic of “Colour Bond,” based on seven years of research and protected by 12 patents. On application, a totally imperceptible 3D mesh ensures flawless colour hold. Colour is locked in for eight hours, without fading or feathering. Light reflection is boosted and lips are intensified in one silky caress.

 A FORMULA FOCUSED ON SOFTNESS

– Emollient agents and micronised waxes glide over lips and improve comfort for easy application.

– Spherical micro-pigments join the “Colour Bond” technology, enriching colours to make them dazzle.

– Two lightweight oils, in perfect affinity with the lips, respectively provide comfort and a satin smooth finish.

– Lips are moisturised for six hours straight.*

– Colour doesn’t fade or feather* for eight hours.* The lip contour stays perfectly defined.
