With Lumiere creme color in lcr-10 Jade by Ben Nye you can accent waterlines. From there switch the lip color to Dark Night by Mented Cosmetics topped with Brown Baby from their lip gloss collection. Finally, apply a favorite mascara, Miss Manga, by Loreal to really emphasize the eyes. And last but not least, layer on favorite gold accessories from MiANiK accessories or MiANiK.co.

Letter Editor This past year also marked a major shift in how we define beauty standards as it sparked a conversation about what we, as consumers, deserve from the industry at large.
“My greatest beauty secret is being happy with myself. I don’t use special creams or treatments – I do use a little bit of everything. It’s a mistake to think you are what you put onto yourself. I believe that a lot with how you look has to do with how you feel about yourself and your life. Happiness is the greatest beauty secret’’. – Tina Turner. Beauty doesn’t rely on how much makeup you put on. It’s better to let your natural beauty shine— be happy with your appearance. We are in the season of new beginnings! Now is the time to try something new. The year 2017 was a big one for beauty. It brought us forty shades of Fenty foundation, an entirely new Kardashian beauty line to lust over, and many unicorn-inspired #looks2try that it all became hard to keep track of.
Beauty assistance, Sklouchere has listed few looks of she wants you to try; from a bold, high fashion, grunge look... to gold glitter eyes and dark lips. Cover model Nzinga Imani tells feature editor Otoja Abit how she is able to juggle a career as a model, singer, actress, makeup artist and also running her own accessories brand. With over ten years of artistic talent, Daurisa Tessier (celebrity makeup artist) takes this into her world of creativity. I'm confident this issue will provide inspiration for everyone. Enjoy

NUDE NAIL POLISH:
A Timeless and Classy Choice T here's a reason why nude nail polish is always on trend, it's because it's a timeless and classy choice. No matter the season, the occasion or your age, nude nail polish will always work.
However, there's a little trick to help you pick the best nude nail polish for your skin tone. If you have a fair skin tone, go with nude nail polish shades that have a rose or grey base, and if you have a medium/dark skin tone, go with nude nail polish shades that have a camel or sandy brown base. That way, you'll be sure that your nude manicure perfectly matches your complexion. The thing about nude nail polish, is that it doesn't only give you that chic look, it also elongates your fingernails, giving your hands a feminine look. What's not to love about that?

Using a moisturizing body wash (like Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash) is obviously a good idea. It sounds gross, but if you also stop sudsing up areas that don't need it every day (like your arms, legs, and stomach), they'll be even less likely to dry out.

My personality surprises most people. Mostly they assume I'm stuck up. In all honesty, I’m probably the goofiest and most playful adult you will encounter. I love making jokes, laughing and being spontaneous. As an Aquarius, I'm a social butterfly who does not truly fit into any social norm. My favorite attribute is my nurturing ability. I like to make others feel loved and appreciated.

HOW TO GET HOT OMBRE LIPS Mod Trends/29
O
mbre means having two different colors that are monochromatic. Ombre style has been popular in hair coloring, nail art and yes lips
too!
Ombre lips can look awesome, but if not done correctly they can make you look very tacky! The secret to doing ombre lips is to first try it out with your regular lip colors. Play around with different hues that merge well together and once you are satisfied with the results only then step out into the open.
THE DARK OUTLINE What makes it special: This is what most people think of when they imagine an ombre lip—darker around the outside and corners, fading inwards to a lighter, complimentary shade. It's a gorgeous way to give depth and dimension to lips; it can even make them look fuller.
How to do it: Begin with the lighter shade and apply it all over your lips. We love to use a matte lipstick (rather than a stain or a liquid lipstick) for the perfect canvas it gives us. Then take a lipliner in a darker, complimentary shade and trace the perimeter of your lips. Using a flat brush, blend the liner into the lighter color by brushing it towards the center of your lips, but not pushing it all the way in to the center. You want to soften the line, not muddy

neutral look a for a bold woman? A look showing
confidence that can be classy? Earthy tones portrayed in the eyes are supported with blends of browns and nudes to
compliment the melanin in the skin. The cut crease is humble yet extremely attractive. It’s a nice depth to grab the eye of anyone who notices. Nude colors provide a look with a little embellishment. In contrast the chocolate cut crease is a calming touch to a lighter nude eyelid with balances of lights and darks. With lashes to top it all off, one must brings attention to the eyes. Simple, elegant, but a very dangerous look utilizing only the simplest of make-up concepts to portray the mastering of the basics. This look showcases the humble quality of make up and the knowing of how to apply it. Dark Lips are the new fierce— forever beautiful and ever vibrant. The use of a starlight highlight from veezaj cosmetics helps to complement subtle facial features. A natural brown cut crease with dark lipstick can be a sweet but threatening vibe. This look is best suited for a night on the town with friends celebrating life with sweet red wine or on a date with your new bae. Mod Trends/43
