The Bigger the Hair the Closer to God

As you can see yesterday I teased my hair to the High Heavens and fluffed it out! I thought it would be a fun messy look for some Sunday afternoon shopping.

My Valentine!

Happy Valentine's Day!! Yesterday my husband had a presentation to give so he wanted to dress especially spiffy, not only was his presentation a home run so was his outfit! Being a big & tall man it's difficult for him to find clothes that are fit and stylish. Fortunately, he has found that Burlington Coat Factory is a great source for affordable fashionable big & tall clothes.

Jule's Gems: Maybe it's Mabelline?

It is Mabelline! That is in fact me new fav foundation to wear! Mabelline Dream Matte Mousse. I've been noticing in my photos as of late that I've had some extra shine to my face almost giving me a wet face illusion, yikes! Who wants that??!!? I am more of a fan of super matte but natural looking foundation nothing shiny or caked on. I gave Mabelline Dream Matte Mouse foundation a whirl and am luvin it! It gives my face a great matte finish and lasts all day, the foundation also photographs really well it doesn't wash me out like some foundations tend to do.

 

To apply I start with first smacking on a layer of Maybelline's Dream Fresh BB Cream using my finger tips. I then add a thin layer of the Dream Matter Mousse using my MAC 187 face brush. If you don't have 1, get 1 here now! To top it off I ever so lightly dust on a layer of Mabelline's Dream Matter Powder using a big fluffy brush. I haven't been so bold yet to try their blush (which there are lots to choose from)! For now though I'm stickin true with my Blush All Day by MAC a great little gem every gal outta have!

Jule's Gems: Revlon Black Cherry Lipstick

I am never one to shy away from a bold color lip, nothing can change up a make up look more then the lip color. It can take your look from day to night in an instant! Check out Adele's make up below, at the 2012 Grammy's for some of her performances she went for a softer look and  rockin a nude color lip and then at other times during the same night she went with a red lip which kicked her look up to old Hollywood glamour va va voom!

On a typical day a bold red lip is my go to, but recently I've been loving the deep dark purple red lip trend over the bright red one. The same look that Khloe Kardashian is rockin below.

Revlon's Black Cherry Lipstick is the closest drug store dupe I could find to getting to this color, and I love it! It's a matte formula that can be worn day or night. If at night just put on a couple extra layers to give it that extra deep and bold look.

At a first glance the color of the lipstick itself is intimidating because it almost looks black, but don't let it fool you when applied it gives a gorgeous deep purpley red.
