			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">I received dozens of emails about the dark glossy look from my BLACKOUT motion editorial. This dramatic, high-fashion look is my claim-to-fame, and it&#8217;s only right that this newly formatted video demonstrates it in crystal clear HD. A combination of the Intense and Glossy eyes videos from the past year, this is one of my favorite editorial looks, and I&#8217;m so glad you asked for it!<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Please note that gloss can irritate the eyes, so take caution when applying to yourself or another person.</span><span style="color: #000000;"><em><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">With 2011 just ONE day away, it&#8217;s time to look back on my best makeup finds of 2010. I&#8217;ve had the opportunity to test a [figurative] ton of cosmetics, and trust me &#8211; it was no easy feat. None of these lines have offered me incentives &#8211; so if the product didn&#8217;t perform, it didn&#8217;t make the list (cause that&#8217;s how we roll at GGF)!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">10. NARS Pure Matte Lipstick:</span></strong> Who says matte lipsticks have to feel dry? This intense matte formula from NARS moisturizes while providing jaw-dropping dramatic color to the lips. <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Bangkok&#8221;</span> is a stunning soft rose that deserves a second look. Right now there are a meager seven shades to choose from, but the formula is undeniably noteworthy.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993300;">9. Illamasqua Powder Blusher:</span></strong> Without a doubt, the most extraordinary surge of pigment you&#8217;ll ever find in a powder blush. Seventeen complexion-charging colors beg to be worn and adorned by only the most outrageous makeup savvy wearer. Every shade is exceptional, but the more intense tones earn them true street cred with the pros. Check out <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Panic&#8221;</span> and <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Thrust,&#8221;</span> my two favorite shades! This may not be a new product, but it earned a secure place in my top 10.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993300;"><span style="color: #008000;">8. Yaby Liquid Foundation:</span> </span></strong>I reviewed this product on givegoodface.com once before, and I must say it has become a staple in my kit. Yaby&#8217;s liquid foundations are unbelievably inexpensive, easy to customize, and look incredible! The 8ml tubes have removable tips, so you can mix your own shades or neutralize using one of Yaby&#8217;s correcting colors. The finish is beyond smooth and the wear is commendable. I can&#8217;t live without the <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Daisy&#8221;</span> corrector (solid white), <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Buff&#8221;</span> (a very neutral light beige tone), and <span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Hot Fudge&#8221;</span> (a neutral deep tone, great for mixing).</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">7. Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Excess Mascara:</span></strong> The face of the Mascara is Megan Fox, let&#8217;s start there. Every facet of this mascara is gorgeous &#8211; the wand is pure seduction and the packaging is as sleek and black as your perfect party dress. If you&#8217;re looking to spend on a mascara that gives your lashes sky-scraping height, Armani is your new best friend.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">6. Smashbox Limitless Liquid Liner Pen:</span></strong><strong> </strong>This liquid liner pen has a precise felt tip, a waterproof hold, and a smoldering jet black finish that rivals pure carbon pigment. From thick to thin and subtle to dramatic, this pen is a makeup artist&#8217;s dream. I have literally drawn detailed tattoos with it. Lobby with me for more colors!</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">5. MakeUpForEver HD Microfinish Blush:</span></strong> MUFE can do no wrong! If you&#8217;re looking for intensely pigmented, velvety smooth, radiant blooms of color &#8211; this is the product for you. Fourteen naughty flavors entice with names like &#8220;Nip Slip, Walk of Shame,&#8221; and &#8220;Caught in the Act,&#8221; and deliver an equally enticing seamless finish. Check out my favorite shades <span style="color: #000000;">#3 &#8220;Truth or Dare&#8221;</span> (hot pink) and <span style="color: #000000;">#6 &#8220;Quickie&#8221;</span> (rich salmon pink) for a rush of color you won&#8217;t soon forget!</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300;"><strong><span style="color: #993300;">4. Urban Decay Naked Palette:</span></strong></span> It was this holiday&#8217;s &#8220;Tickle Me Elmo.&#8221; As soon as it hit the shelves, UD&#8217;s &#8220;Naked Palette&#8221; was sold out and wait-listed for months, proving that no one makes a palette quite like Urban Decay. Given, the colors are nothing new. But somehow a combination of brilliant packaging (brown velvet and slick gold), an assortment of twelve stunning &#8220;naked&#8221; shades (from sheer nude to flat black), and a bonus double-ended liner make this palette irresistible. I don&#8217;t even like pre-made palettes, and I love this thing.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #008000;">3. Smashbox Pro Second Skin Concealer:</span></strong> Second Skin is an incredibly smooth full-coverage concealer that can also be worn as foundation. Exclusive to QVC, this concealer quickly became a top Smashbox must-have (which leads me to think that we&#8217;ll be seeing a version of this formula in stores next year under a different name). The wear is indelible, the finish is divine, and the price is a steal. All four mixable shades should be in your wish list for 2011.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>2. MakeUpForEver Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick:</strong></span> Fifty brand spankin&#8217; new, super-pigmented, sinfully delicious shades prove that MUFE doesn&#8217;t mess around when it comes to delivering awe-inspiring ranges of color. Creamy in texture, these lipsticks glide on for a long-wearing hold in three decadent finishes (satin, matte, and pearl). My faves? The perfectly pale <span style="color: #000000;">#22 and #23</span>, the vivaciously vermillion <span style="color: #000000;">#43 &#8220;Moulin Rouge,&#8221;</span> and the twinkling 24-karat <span style="color: #000000;">#17</span>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300;"><strong><span style="color: #800080;">1. Smashbox PhotoFinish Luminizing Primer:</span></strong></span> If you&#8217;ve never used a Smashbox primer &#8211; today is the day. This luminous gold primer has become my latest and greatest beauty secret, probably because it&#8217;s perfect radiant skin in an airless pump. Aside from it&#8217;s ethereal finish, it carries the same good-for-you skin benefits as Smashbox&#8217;s other primers. In this case, an oil-free blend of antioxidants like grape seed extract and green tea, and vitamins A, C, and E. It&#8217;s universally gorgeous and also my favorite new product of the year!</p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Feel free to add </span><em><span style="color: #000000;">your</span></em><span style="color: #000000;"> favorite products to the list by commenting below or sharing on the official GGF Facebook page!</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">We&#8217;re both from small towns, have a mutual passion for fashion, and have strong groundings in the arts. My interview with the fantastically talented Roshar reveals the similarities and vast differences between artists &#8211; proof that individuality is not a lost art. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">A native Texan, Roshar moved away from home at fifteen and now finds himself a bicoastal sensation. His signature looks can be seen in magazines like Z!NK, Anthem, and Neo2; and he has worked with clients like Make Up For Ever, CoverGirl, Paul Mitchell, and WalMart. Roshar&#8217;s work is the embodiment of modern fashion, and it has been my pleasure to call him a colleague. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">Jordan Liberty, GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> How would you describe your personal style?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar:</span></strong><span style="color: #000080;"> I try not to think of things that are obvious. Usually I try to focus on one key element and not overpower. I see the strength in a minimalist aspect. Like, if I create a strange line on the brows, I keep the rest really simple &#8212; and it gives it more impact.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> How did that fit with your recent Cover Girl work?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">[Laughs] Off the record? Crap…</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> Don’t make me tell everyone that you held back!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">[Laughs] So usually everything I do is for a particular client or a particular market. Cover Girl is for an everyday clientele. You’re trying to appeal to a market that may not necessarily pick up fashion magazines or be in tune with Italian Vogue &#8212; you know, &#8220;hardcore&#8221; fashion. So you have to keep it more…pleasant. No, that’s not the right word. A little more non-threatening. In other words, it has to be something that anyone could translate on themselves; you’re selling a product that Jane Doe in Wisconsin could put on for herself.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> How long have you been doing makeup? Tell me how it all started.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">[I’ve been doing makeup] for over fifteen years, but I’ve been full time freelance for about five. And how I got started was…I moved out of my home when I was 15 and I lived in a small town in Texas. I always lived with girls, and since I was too young to have a regular job, I did their hair and makeup &#8212; and that’s how I would pay the rent. I did that for a number of years and was allowed to mess up and learn from my mistakes…and yeah…that’s kind of how I got a little of my background.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I also drew and painted when I was young. I accredit a lot of my skills to that &#8212; the way to hold a brush, the way pigments work with light, and the amount of pressure to apply to the brush. A lot of people that are not artistically trained tend to be heavy handed because they don’t learn to bend their wrists.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">What advice would you give to other small-towners that want to follow in our footsteps?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">That’s funny, a lot of good artists do [come from small towns]. Even Kabuki and Kevyn Aucoin! A lot of really good artists came from that background. A lot of people ask me about school and I tell them to take art classes, they’re far more valuable. That, and assisting an artist &#8212; learning out in the field.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> What do you consider to be your &#8220;piece de resistance?&#8221;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Oh wow….God I don’t know what that is! I’ll get back to you on that.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">What’s your favorite animal?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar:</span></strong><span style="color: #000080;"> Are you serious?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> Uh huh.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar:</span></strong><span style="color: #000080;"> Favorite animal as a pet, or to eat, or to…wear?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF:</span></strong><span style="color: #993366;"> Like your favorite animal. Like if you could be one.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar:</span></strong><span style="color: #000080;"> A cat. Because they are agile, and independent, and quiet. And they’re smart. If you don’t feed one they’ll just go to someone else and find food. Cat piss really really stinks.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Thanks for sharing. I would have said koala but that’s just me.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Aren’t they kind of vicious though? Cute but vicious…no, I’m thinking of raccoons.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Do you have any pets?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">No, I’m too busy trying to take care of myself…I move around too much.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">That’s right, you’re a bicoastal man!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Yes, I do a lot in LA and New York. I guess I’m based in New York. But every other month I have to be in Los Angeles.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">What’s your advice to all the newbies reading this?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">As another artist said, hide all your bright colors for 6 months and concentrate on perfecting natural looks.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">What’s your favorite current trend?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">One thing that I find myself really doing a lot of…I find myself doing a lot of um…blocking eyebrows. It’s a huge current trend and I love it. I’m kind of like not into lashes and mascara right now&#8230;but that could change next month. I like going without false lashes and mascara.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">In your opinion, what’s the biggest makeup faux pas?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">For like, everyday makeup? Foundation that doesn’t match. Other things I don’t like seeing in other artists portfolios is work that doesn’t have rhyme or reason. Like a business suit and Wal-Mart hair. So I strive to have a point. There’s a reason why she has a line drawn into her brows or bronze skin. There’s a reason why I do what I do.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">What are your must-have products right now?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">I’m really enjoying the sensual skin enhancer.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Oh my God I love that!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Do you have it?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Yes, ugh. Worth every penny.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">I love it. I use that for concealer and foundation, and its full coverage but not dry. It looks like skin. You could use it all over the face and it just looks like…flawless skin.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Next is the Ben Nye fireworks wheel. Um…Make Up For Ever HD foundations. They’re silicone-based so there’s no need for powder.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I don’t like when they’re too dewy. I like to have control. Let’s see…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Oh! OCC lip tars. Those are my current obsession. I really like OCC’s products, the pigment is fantastic!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Agreed! Who’s your favorite designer?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Uh…let’s see Alexander McQueen. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">GGF: </span></strong><span style="color: #993366;">Do you feel influenced by his work?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #000080;">Roshar: </span></strong><span style="color: #000080;">Yes…I feel that [Alexander] and I have similar visions in the sense that what he does for clothing I do for makeup. He approaches it with a clean idea even if it’s completely out of the box.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I have this tendency when I’m walking down the street. I might see a chartreuse green jacket and down the street and I see a bucket or a truck, and all I start to see is chartreuse green and it bugs me out. And my friends look at me like ‘okay, Roshar, you’re kind of odd.’ I literally freeze in my tracks &#8212; it’s like the sky is falling…not like…wow, that’s beautiful.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;BLACKOUT&#8221; is a motion editorial featuring dramatic makeup inspired by my HD tutorials and recent projects. My directorial debut, &#8220;BLACKOUT&#8221; is an extension of the GGF brand and a new format I hope to expand on in 2011. This is not a music video. It&#8217;s not an editorial. It&#8217;s not a featurette or behind-the-scenes piece. It&#8217;s a concept project that combines elements of all three to put the makeup center stage.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">It&#8217;s </span><em><span style="color: #000000;">finally</span></em><span style="color: #000000;"> arrived &#8212; </span><span style="color: #993366;">the pilot GGF video tutorial</span> <span style="color: #000000;">in all its high definition glory! Some of you may remember that we filmed this at the GGF studio back in November of 2009. Going forward, these will be filmed by a production house in Philadelphia, so expect big things in the coming months!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"> The lovely Joy Yana rocks this look in my upcoming makeup book, </span><em><span style="color: #000000;">Give Good Face</span></em><span style="color: #000000;">, and volunteered to model this look for all of you on video! </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Because these tutorials are like nothing else on the internet, they require a little explanation. </span><em><span style="color: #000000;">You&#8217;ll notice that I am not speaking throughout the makeup application.</span></em><span style="color: #000000;"> The clarity of these videos are high, so they require very little additional information. If you aren&#8217;t a visual learner, the video contains annotations that link back to this blog entry, which contains detailed instructions that can be saved and bookmarked (below).</span></p>
<p><strong><em><span style="color: #000000;">Format:</span></em></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">After the new opening titles (aren&#8217;t the colors fantastic?), you&#8217;ll see a quick flash of the look and a </span><strong><em><span style="color: #000000;">difficulty level:</span></em></strong></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>BASIC</strong></span></em><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>:</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Requires very little application skill.</span></p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #993300;">INTERMEDIATE</span></strong></em><strong><span style="color: #993300;"> (this video):</span></strong> <span style="color: #000000;">Requires a comfortable level of application skill.</span></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #993366;"><strong>PROFESSIONAL</strong></span></em><span style="color: #993366;"><strong>:</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Requires advanced application skills.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Because this look is a fashion look, it is not for beginners. However, because this look does not require much precision, it is not as difficult as a professional application.</span></p>
<p><strong><em><span style="color: #000000;">Products used (listed in the video as well):</span></em></strong></p>
<p><em>Yaby</em> &#8216;Buff&#8217; Liquid Foundation<br />
<em>Yaby</em> &#8216;Daisy&#8217; Corrector<br />

<p><strong><em><span style="color: #000000;">Instructions:</span></em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em><span style="color: #993366;">Step 1: Buff Foundation Over Prepped Skin</span> </em><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #000000;">This is a technique I use a lot to give the skin an airbrushed appearance. You&#8217;re literally using a fluffy brush to apply a liquid or cream product. Apply a dab of foundation to the back of your hand, dip the tip of your brush into the color, and apply to the face. Use</span><em><span style="color: #000000;"> light</span></em><span style="color: #000000;"> pressure and work in quick, tight circles. I use pressure in the video, but if you look, my model&#8217;s head isn&#8217;t jerking all over. Light pressure; don&#8217;t kill your model. Make sure you use a synthetic brush made of taklon or nylon as they are less likely to breed bacteria and are easier to clean. Also, wet products tend to destroy brushes. Synthetics hold up way better to moisture. </span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight: normal;"><em><strong><span style="color: #993300;">Step 2: Apply Concealer</span> </strong> </em><span style="color: #000000;">Joy has very little darkness under her eyes, and for most women, a cream concealer is way too heavy for the sensitive skin in that area. Using a liquid concealer, I&#8217;m lightly sweeping the color under her eyes using a flat concealer brush. Often times, I will use a fluffy brush to diffuse the product (usually with more mature skin), similar to how we applied the foundation. For an instant &#8220;lifted&#8221; look, apply concealer to the outer corners of the features. This de-emphasizes darkness that may make the face look tired. Also, lift the eyes by applying concealer over the brow. And of course, use concealer on any blemishes.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #757205;">Step 3: Apply Powder </span></strong> </em><span style="color: #000000;">Use a large brush to apply powder over the face and neck. Because makeup photographs differently than skin, it&#8217;s important to apply powder down the neck if your model will be the subject of a photo. I prefer a powder with color, as they provide additional coverage, but a translucent works fine as well. Also, I usually go for a powder with hydrating properties to prevent a sandy appearance.</span></p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Step 4: Define the Cheeks</span></strong> </em><span style="color: #000000;">Repeat after me: less is more.</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #000000;"> Your goal is to create the illusion of depth with a </span><em><span style="color: #000000;">subtle</span></em><span style="color: #000000;"> shadow. Contour shades should be on the cool side, which is why bronzers make terrible contour colors. Warm shades, like bronzers, can make the skin look dirty. Use a fan brush to add depth to the hollows of the cheekbones. Work fast and apply very little pressure to the brush. You want a soft wash of darker color, not a racing stripe.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;"><em><strong><span style="color: #008080;">Step 5: Prime the Eyelids Using Fingertips </span></strong> </em><span style="color: #000000;">Eye primers enhance pigment colors, prevent creasing, and extend the wear of your shadow. Using concealer or foundation on the lids will not help with wear or creasing. Use fingertips to apply.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;"><em><strong><span style="color: #3923db;">Step 6: Apply a Dark Base</span></strong> </em><span style="color: #000000;">We&#8217;re not in Kansas, anymore! I&#8217;m starting our smoky eye with a black cream base. This is hands down the easiest way to create a deep smoky eye without any shadow falling on the cheeks. Use a blunt brush to pat cream liner on the lid from lash line to crease. This does not have to be perfect, but do your best. Do not extend the color past the end of the eye out onto the cheek.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;"><strong><span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #6322aa;">Step 7: Follow With Eyeshadow</span> <span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #000000;">Smoky does not always mean black. Smoky is a technique, not a color. For this video, I&#8217;m using a deep matte black, but a dark cabernet or navy look sensational! Use a fluffy brush to apply shadow right over the cream. First pat the color on, then blend. Work from lash line to crease, again, not extending higher than the crease or past the end of the brow. </span></span></span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #993366;">Step 8: Apply Satin Eyeshadow</span></strong> <span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #000000;">To give our smoky eye an incredible metallic finish, we&#8217;re applying our lightest shade LAST. Use a large shadow brush to sweep the shadow from the lash line all the way to the brow. I used a satin taupe shade for this look. Use whatever color you like, just make sure you don&#8217;t choose a color too light.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #993300;"><strong>Step 9: Define Lower Lash Line</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Use a smudge brush to drag the matte black shadow lightly across the lower lash line. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #757205;"><strong>Step 10: Fill Brows</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">One of my special touches on this look is the slightly metallic brow. Use a spoolie to run a generous amount of metallic creme color through the brow.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Step 11: Line the Eyes</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Use a liner brush to apply black gel liner across the upper lash line. Use a smudge brush or cotton swab to diffuse and soften the line by pulling the liner lightly upward and smudging.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Step 12: Apply Mascara</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Only apply ONE COAT of mascara (top and bottom lashes). We&#8217;ll apply one more coat after we apply false eyelashes. If you aren&#8217;t applying false eyelashes, go ahead and layer on the mascara as heavy as you like!</span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #3923db;"><strong>Step 13: False Eyelashes</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">The key to applying false eyelashes is patience. Apply the glue, wait 30-45 seconds, then put the lashes on. Get them as close to your natural lash line as possible. Apply one more coat of mascara to blend the lashes with your own.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="color: #6322aa;">Step 14: Line and Fill the Lips</span></strong> <span style="color: #000000;">Even though this is a nude lip, liner is necessary to keep the lips from disappearing into the face! Use a rose nude color to line and fill the lips.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #993366;"><strong>Step 15: Apply Nude Lipstick</strong></span> <span style="color: #000000;">Apply a creamy nude shade (from the tube or with a brush) to finish the look!</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #993366;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love to face chart! There&#8217;s nothing better than brainstorming with a box of colored pencils and a stack of blank face charts. I&#8217;ve created my own charts for you to use at home, and you can download them at the bottom of this blog in universal PDF format.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re wondering what a face chart is&#8230;</p>
<p>A face chart is like a blueprint for makeup, it helps artists to plan looks, or to visually demonstrate a look to an employer. It can also be used to show another person how to recreate a look the artist created. You can fill it in with makeup, but I prefer to use colored pencils.</p>
<p>The best way to have these printed is on off-white textured paper. I went to a copy place and used their &#8216;natural&#8217; premium resume paper, for a hundred sheets it was only twenty bucks!</p>
<p><strong><em>Pictured below is the horizontal face chart. You can download both charts here:</em></strong><br />
<a href="http://www.givegoodface.com/fc/fc_horizontal.pdf">Horizontal Format</a><br />
<a href="http://www.givegoodface.com/fc/fc_vertical.pdf">Vertical Format</a></p>
<p><strong><em>You can also download a 3/4 view face chart here (added 4/2010):</em></strong><br />
<a href="http://www.givegoodface.com/fc/fc_34.pdf">3/4 View</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Years of suffering through a bad complexion turned me into a skin care junkie as a teenager, and because of that I now pride myself on remarkably high standards in beauty. Since my teens I’ve had facials, glycolic peels, microdermabrasion treatments, extractions, and sampled almost every product on the market. Most of them have been complete and utter failures, including the prescription treatments. I’ve slowly whittled my skin care regimen down to a select few products that I just can’t live without. At the top of that very short list is the Clarisonic Skin Care Brush.</p>
<p>This revolutionary brush uses sonic technology to loosen dirt, makeup, pollutants, and oil from your pores. In just 60 seconds, the Clarisonic Brush reduces pore size and the appearance of fine lines, improves skin tone and clarity, and improves the overall efficacy of your expensive creams and serums. This, of course, is the company’s official definition of the brush, but my personal observations have been much more profound.</p>
<p>Seven months ago I (excitedly) used my Clarisonic for the first time. The treatment was surprisingly not very rough, and my skin immediately felt clean and refreshed. After rinsing my face, I noticed that my skin felt baby-smooth to the touch – just like it does after I have a really good facial. The blackheads in my nose were completely gone (which has never happened before), and my skin was literally glowing. Since that morning I have had fewer breakouts (almost none) and have never had better skin – ever. </p>
<p>With so many gimmicky products out there that claim to improve my skin, it was great to find a product that actually <em>did</em> improve my skin. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>That’s right, folks, we’re going to talk about my new man bag. </p>
<p>You asked for it!</p>
<p>It is a rare and special occasion that I find a bag that suits my personal style: chic but not overtly feminine or ostentatious. I’ve been a fan of L.A.M.B. since it’s debut only a few years ago, and each season the styles catch my eye as I peruse Nordstrom for the latest and greatest trend. Gwen Stefani (L.A.M.B’s creator) mixes classic styles with modern pops of color, sporty stripes, bold prints, and chunky hardware – a testament to her rockstar-chic roots. </p>
<p>Until now, none of Gwen’s amazing handbags have suited me. </p>
<p>To compensate, over the past two years I’ve talked several girlfriends into purchasing a L.A.M.B. just so I could live vicariously through them. </p>
<p>As many of my colleagues will corroborate, I am defined by my incredibly soft percy Marc by Marc Jacobs tote. This simple messenger-style bag has been attached to my left hip for a year, boasting gold turnlock accents and luxurious black leather. People regularly ask if they can purchase it from me. And I say ‘no.’ Would you give up your child?</p>
<p>Why carry a briefcase when you have THIS BAG? Ladies and gentlemen, you asked for it, and here it is: the L.A.M.B. ‘Martindale’ tote.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 390px"><img alt="My Current Marc by Marc Jacobs and the New Addition, Martindale by L.A.M.B!" src="http://www.givegoodface.com/header/t_lamb2.jpg" title="My Current Marc by Marc Jacobs and the New Addition, the 'Martindale' tote by L.A.M.B!" width="380" height="380" /><p class="wp-caption-text">My Current Marc by Marc Jacobs and the New Addition, the 'Martindale' tote by L.A.M.B!</p></div>
