Question

How do I pick the right color foundation?

Answer

One thing that turns this Beauty Guru a shade of pale is poor beauty victims wearing a foundation color that is the COMPLETELY WRONG COLOR. Now listen y'all, I love a good trip to the Target or CVS Beauty Aisle as much as the next gal, but there are certain areas where it really is necessary to call in a professional and pay the extra money. In my humble opinion picking the right shade of foundation is right up there- very high- on that list of things that are very difficult to do yourself- in fact I think it is listed directly below back massages and automobile maintenance. The money that you may save by buying a drug store brand of foundation that you have picked yourself under flourescent lighting will never be worth the price of walking around with a face that does not match your neck. Also when you are in a Savannah Department Store Cosmetics Department or Gigantic Beauty Store your are under false lighting. Ever heard of the rear view mirror test? If you get to your car and check yourself in the rear view mirror and look completely WRONG you have been a victim of Cosmetic Lighting Seduction- commonly known as CLS. If this happens immediately put the car in drive and head on over to Glow (after you ahve returned the cosmetics you bought). We are experts on picking just the right shade for you that you will look like you just have perfect flawless skin. When I set up or beauty Boutique I made certain to put the make-up chair directly in the window with lots of natural sunlight. This guarantees all of our Make-Up Make-Overs pass the rear view mirror test with flying colors! And of course we have only the very best of the best foundation available in the world of beauty. After searching and searching for the perfect foundation that looked natural yet still had long-lasting coverage I FINALLY just two weeks ago chose Youngblood Mineral Make-Up DepSea Hydrating Foundation. This was only after eight long months of being a guinea pig and wearing every foundation under the sun.....under the sun.  But it was worth all of the research and well worth the wait because........Youngblood DepSea Hydrating Foundation is AMAZING! I first heard of it when it was written up in New Beauty Magazine as the very best mineral foundation. Trust me ladies- this is NOT your Grandmother's foundation. So call and set up your make-up make-over appointment and we will help you lay the foundation for a beautiful look.

With Love and Glow,

p.s. if you insist on doing it yourself then always use the inside of your forearm to test which shade is right for you. But make sure you do it in natural light- very difficult to fin din Aisle 14. Hugs and Blisses!

p.p.s. Bring your Grandmother with you when you come for your Make-Up Make-Over!
