The Quick Face.
A Johnny Come Lately I may be, but I just realized that I have a Quick Face makeup look. Do you? It dawned on me that whenever I am in a rush and daren’t go sans makeup, I always tend to grab the following:
- Jane Iredale Pressed Mineral Base (quickly kabuki brushed on)
- Becca Brow Powder
- MAC Club eyeshadow to upper lid
- Blackened Brown eyeliner pencil to tight line upper and lower lids
- Black mascara on curled lashes top and bottom
- Shu Uemura Blush in P Brown 780 (nude/rose bronze demi shimmer)
- The closest nudish gloss I can lay my hot little hands on.
C’est tout! And the bestest bit about a Quick Face is that it is indeed quick. I can do the above in about 5 minutes max. Not bad, ay? All this to say Gorgeous Ones, it’s worth perfecting the Quick Face…because you just never know what adventures lay ahead for you and with the Quick Face you’re sure to look more than a bit of alright in anticipation for every eventuality. We love that!

How Nifty Is This?
When your running late and have an annoying case of flakeys on your face and haven’t got time for a zippy mechanical exfoliation or did one and missed a few rogue terrors, just grab your tweezers to sort out the rest. Seriously, it’s as easy as tweezing off the offending bits of skin with stealth precision, moisturizing, and away you go. I know…too cool!

Beauty Out Equals Beauty In:
Most of us are familiar with the Law of Attraction as it is capably explored and explained in Rhonda Byrne’s’ “The Secret”, but I’d like to lovingly remind you that the very same principles apply to beauty…our beauty. When we are continually thinking negative thoughts about ourselves like, I’m so ugly, I wish I were attractive, I hate my skin, I wish I didn’t have such a funny looking nose etc., Gosh, if I could only loose some weight then I’d look nicer, I’ll never find love, and so on, these negative thoughts are making their way Out There, and as dictated by the Law of Attraction (like attracts like) we expertly attract the very same back into our lives and we tend to get tons more of what’s in direct alignment with our thoughts. In other words, we get more of whom or what we don’t want. G-r-e-a-t-t-t-t!
So the important thing to remember is (seeing that the Universe is not as discerning as we’d like it to be) that we can totally utilize the Law of Attraction to our favour. By regularly and actively affirming what (and whom) we wish to attract into our lives, focusing on the positive and sending only beautiful, loving and supportive thoughts out about ourselves and the Universe will, absolutely, ensure that we abundantly get exactly that back. Not bad, ay? After all, as we like to say here at Chez Beauty Marked!, Beauty Out Equals Beauty In, because beautiful thoughts always lead to beautiful outcomes. And yes…that’s, definitely, a Beauty Marked! promise!
