*Hi there,
I have been in the Hair & Beauty Industry for the past 12 years. As a salon owner I get to try a lot of new products. But I have never been able to find a foundation / camouflage that suits my skin and skin tone - until now...
Sacha Cosmetics is the product and it is fabulous. It is a range suited to women who love and need a yellow based foundation. They were the officially cosmetics for the Miss Universe and Miss USA Pageants, so Sacha is literally worn by the most beautiful women in the world. Sacha caters to all skin types and skin tones...Even for me and I have combination skin that is all over the place and very sensitive. The next best thing is that it is so affordable..A liquid foundation retails for $35.00. Not many products at this price deliver results.. I am now stocking this product and everyone is loving it, especially women of color. Thanks heaps and I hope you too find the product of your dreams !!

*Hey, if you want some make-up ideas this is what I do, This is what you'll need-
Mary-Kate & Ashley Creamy Eye shadow
Liquid Eye Liner
Powdered Glitter
A Light Red Lip Liner
Clear Lip Gloss
Step 1- Put the eye shadow on with a Q-Tip then, on the very bottom by the lashes put a darker color on.
Step 2-Take the eyeliner and put it were you put the darker color on you eye lid (don't put it on the bottom because it makes you eye look very poofy).
Step 3- Take the powdered glitter and brush it on your eyelashes so it makes your eye look brighter.
Step 4- Take the lip liner and put it on your lips (don't push really hard or your lips will look bigger).
Step 5- Slide the lip gloss on (don't put a lot on or your lips will look fake).
That's how I put my make-up on and I look fantastic it's very good for girls-night-out.

You know when you have that occasional big red zit on your face just in time for a special event? It's horrible. On graduation I had a big red pimple on my forehead and I used Stila Concealer Stick in a silver tube. It was amazing! I had the lady at Stila do my makeup so she showed me the right colors. Stila cosmetic line is awesome - awesome glosses, concealers, everything!*

To get your lips ultra hydrated, soft and supple apply a really thick lip gloss (I use Sally Hanson lip quencher in Clear Mauve) every night before you go to bed. Start in the center of your bottom lip then work outward. Apply heavy for a quick fix. A smokey eye looks awesome on everyone-- try it in teal;)* - Liz

I recently discovered this amazing product for treating acne. It is called Ozone3 and works really, really well. If you have any acne problems use it and watch it work. It's available at most pharmacies.* - Claire

This is for all of you girls that aren't really into colorful lips. I like mine to be a little on the  natural side so I buy this great lip balm from Walgreens. The color is blue so it takes away the redness in your lips (don't worry, your lips won't look blue). Rub it in, but not all the way, just so that there is a hint of blue still on your lips. Then put some clear lip gloss on and you'll have a natural look. Plus they've been taken care of in the moisturizing department! I've gotten many compliments.* - Whitney

*Always apply blush to cheek bones. To find your cheek bone make lips into a small 'o' and apply blush to the part that sticks out. For a great phunky look apply a shimmer eyeliner on top lid to crease and a line on bottom lid. Try using different colors for the mood you're in. I use a ruby pink shimmer stick by Smackers. you can get it online at smackers.com on the bottom left it says shopping. Everything is behind the counter and really cheap ;)* - Emilee

*I only wear MAC makeup. It is the best. The foundation gives you a full, and even coverage if applied right, and I suggest use a MAC brush. The eyeshadows are exotic, and you can mix about anything and it will look good. What I suggest is use a light frost color all over you lid, or just on your brow. Then take another color, a little bit darker than the first color you applied to your brow, and apply it on the lid all the way up to your crease. I suggest not to use another frost color because it might be too much attention on your eyes. Last, use a dark satin color to top it off and apply in crease and in the corner of both eyes. I promise it looks good. I do it all the time - it looks spectacular.*-Jessica

*If you have dandruff that is getting on your clothes and you would never wear black then you should use Head & Shoulders. It will get that stuff out in time.*- Nina

*
If you need a great foundation use Mary-Kay.*

I am absolutely in love with MAC Spice Lipliner - it's a neutral, pinkish brown shade that works with just about all of my lipsticks.* - Jackie
