Bridal Series #4: Get Picture Ready with the Christi Harris Eyebrow Kit

On your wedding day, make sure all eyes are on you and that your eyebrows are picture-ready!
Eyebrows are an important feature on your face that can really define your face. Born with almost skimpy and shapeless brows, I was pretty excited to try the Christi Harris Precision Brow Planing System. This kit has all that you need to create gorgeous, defined brows without tweezing or dying! Oh and a sweet bonus? These tools also create a smoky, defined eye look!

In addition to this extensive kit, there are instructional videos (click here!) on the website to to achieve your perfect brows. It may look overwhelming but once you know your overall desired brow shape, it's all about filling and defining your brow. The Color Blend Trio (offers 3 shades of brow colors) to match most eyebrow colouring. If you feel one of them isn't your match, the best part is you can blend the three colors together. Experiment on your hand first, if you have to. Pretty soon, you'll get the hang of it!

It's important to know what kind of brow you have. There are 4 general types..
Bushy, Skimpy, Shapeless, and Browless. Which one are you? Shown in the "Advance into your Custom Design" video, you will figure out tips and tricks using the Definer brush to create an outline of how your brow will look like.. Check it out!

The AddaBrow is also a cream, not so waxy texture, that will help fill in those sparse areas and create your brow. It's my fave part of the kit b/c it can miraculously "grow" your brows.

Elke's The Model Brow Collection: Day Brow Shadow

Hello Divas!

I hope your Tuesday is beautiful! Divas I had the opportunity to try Elke Von Freudenberg's Day Brow Shadow in dark brunette from her Model Brow Collection. Elke IS the eyebrow guru. She is a highly sought after celebrity brow specialist. Read her bio here. I must say that this brow shadow is just fabulous! First this color is fantastic for women with darker skin tones or dark eyebrows. The color is the perfect dark brown color. It blended perfectly with my eyebrows. Also a little goes a long way. When I initially applied the brow shadow, I applied too much. However, I re-applied the product with a Q-tip with just a little bit of the powder. Perfection. Lastly, the consistency of the product is silky smooth. It is so easy to apply..it literally glides on. And Divas, Elke created 4 different brow shadows that will match any skin tone or eyebrow color. I love it! Also you must check out her entire Model Brow Collection. Her collection also includes brow pencils, brow tamers, highlighters, and brushes. The day brow shadow retails for $20. Click here for purchase information.

La Vaque Tweezers: The Best Tweezers Ever

Hello Divas!

I hope your weekend was fabulous! Today I have to tell you ladies about the best tweezers I have ever used, La Vaque Tweezers. I won these tweezers in a contest hosted by Mikeala's Jet Set Beauty. I have been using them for over a month now and they are phenemonal! I have the La Vaque Pointed Tip Tweezer. The beauty of these tweezers is the very sharp point. They can remove any ingrown hair or the tiniest little hair. They are great for removing any unwanted facial hair and for shaping your eyebrows! Unlike drugstore brand tweezers that are usually rounded and small with a shiny sleek finish, La Vaque tweezers are large and flat with a matte finish. So the grip on these tweezers are awesome! No more dropped tweezers while tweezing! And as a bonus, these tweezers come with a small plastic tip cover. So you can protect them from dust, dirt, and germs! La Vaque Tweezers retail for $14.95. I know that is a bit expensive. But guess what? They come with a lifetime gurantee! So if you break them or dull them, they will send you another pair for FREE! I love it! You can purchase La Vaque Tweezers online here.
