I remember a time when I would actually work to keep myself more than just presentable. I wore makeup, did my hair, and just took time to get ready in the morning. Now that the boys are a bit older, I’ve come to realize that I miss that. So I pledged that I would take a bit more time for myself, blow dry my hair and put on makeup. I have to admit I was scared…I mean I’m a mom now. Can I wear shimmer eye shadows, dark lipsticks, and not look silly? I didn’t even know if I remembered how to apply eye shadow and blush.
It was just after this that I was given some L’Oreal Makeup to try and I’ve discovered that I really didn’t have anything to fear. I started slow with Telescopic Clean Definition Mascara. It’s fairly simple to apply and doesn’t clump. One minute of application time and it’s an instant noticeable difference. Even your husband will take notice!
Next I tried Wear Infinite Star Secrets Eye Shadow. First off, I love that you can find the right colors for your own coloring by determining which L’Oreal Paris spokesperson your coloring best matches. I love Eva Longoria’s Violets. If you need help applying the four colors, there is a ‘how to’ with illustrations on the back of each palette.
I also tried HIP High Intensity Pigments Cream Shadow Paints. I love the look of these shadows. The paint comes in a tube with a little eye shadow brush and an application well. They are fun to experiment with. You can mix and match colors to come up with the perfect color for you.
For lips, I’ve been wearing Colour Riche Made for Me Naturals. Again you can find the spokesperson that matches your coloring to determine which color would best suit your natural shade. I really loved trying the different colors and I think I’ve found the perfect one for me.
Finally, I also tried Infallible Never Fail Lipgloss, a lip gloss that stays on for 6 hours and requires only one step for application. It is smooth and sleek and comes in some really flattering colors. I love lipgloss and I especially love not having to reapply hourly.
You can find all of these great L’Oreal products at any chain drug, food, and mass market retailers. You can also visit http://www.lorealparisusa.com.
I’m going to end this with…if I can do it, then you can do it too. Trust me. I feel so much better knowing that I’ve put a little time on the way I present myself…whether it’s a swipe of mascara, a little in-depth application of eye shadow, or some gloss.
