Makeup Mondays With Mario: Defined Eye Crease

Celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic is answering your burning beauty questions!!! Every Monday, he will answer a beauty/skin care question as part of a weekly column on Spoiled Pretty, Makeup Mondays with Mario.

Hi Mario,

You are a huge inspiration to me you truly inspire me to try new and different unique things as a make up artist. There is just one thing I find tricky to achieve when I do make up. What's a easy way for a really defined eye crease? I find it very challenging to create this look and I always end up with two different shapes on each eye! What's the trick?

Thank you so much!

xoxo,
Janet

Hi Janet,

Thank you and Happy Halloween! :-). When going for a defined crease, using a typical dome shaped blending brush will not do the trick. Instead, try using a pencil along the crease. Use a small eye shadow brush or Q-tip to softly blend the line from side to side. If you want to define it more, try drawing a very thin line along the crease using a liquid liner. A thin eyeliner brush and eyeshadow also works well.

Thanks for visiting Makeup Mondays with Mario!

Mario

Polished: A Note On Nail Art

Hello, spoiled pretty readers!

I adore good nail art. The Internet is full of great examples - chevron stripes, zombie faces, manicures in Tiffany blue with white detail to look like gift boxes - the examples are endless.

Personally, I always wanted to achieve half-moon nails at home. A beauty idol of mine, Dita Von Teese, often rocks a perfect half-moon manicure with ruby red and bare nail.

For my first attempt, I painted the bottom half of my nails silver, and went for purple on the top portion of the nail. It was so ugly, I destroyed the photographic evidence.

For my second and final attempt, I went for bare nails on the bottom portion, and red on the rest of the nail. I applied stickers meant for french manicures on the bottom of my nail, and painted over them. You are supposed to wait until the polish is completely dry to remove the stickers. I didn't exactly trust that, so I removed the stickers when the polish was still slightly tacky.

Some stickers left a well-defined line behind, some were crooked, and more still looked like I hadn't even used stickers at all. Ugh.

I came to the conclusion that I am far too much of a perfectionist to ever be happy with do-it-yourself nail art on my own nails. I applaud those of you who have the patience and artistic ability to do it, I am just not one of those people. So, I am going to stick to what I am good at - basic manicures!

Makeup Mondays With Mario: Don't Make Me Matte

Hi Mario,

I have really dry skin so I am not really a fan of matte foundations. I always use foundations that give me a radiant, dewy glow - however every time I set my foundation with my compact powder, I lose my glow and my skin gets matte and dull. It looks dry all over again which makes me not want to set my foundation. Is there a way I can set everything without losing the glow?

Ashley

Ashley,

The reason you're looking matte and probably muddy is because you're using a compact powder to set your foundation! You should always set your base using loose powder.

Pressed powders usually have too much coverage to use over a foundation, not to mention all the additional ingredients that are used to make the powder into a pressed compact. They're great for touchups throughout the day or for areas that need more coverage.

Try setting your makeup with a loose powder. They come in translucent and even light reflecting formulas so your skin will maintain the glow. I prefer using a velour puff to apply the powder evenly and set your foundation.

Thanks for visiting Makeup Mondays with Mario!

Mario

The question then arises of course predictable, why a black turtleneck? The answer is easy, because Steve Jobs had a lot of black turtlenecks. In fact, a lot of news popping up lately, it is said that the collection of turtlenecks Jobs to 100 pieces.

Stories about Jobs's iconic style choices are also recorded in a biography titled "Steve Jobs" written by Walter Isaacson. Isaacson takes more than two years of interviews, both with Steve Jobs and the family, friends and colleagues a man whose full name is Steven Paul Jobs. One of the stories of successful is about the style of dress Steve Jobs.

The origins of the black turtleneck Steve Jobs began in 1980, when Jobs was in Japan. At the time, Jobs asked the Chairman Akio Morita, Sony's why everybody in the company using the uniform. Morita said that after the war, no one has clothes for work and the company must give them clothes to wear every day and from year to year. Uniforms were then create a separate identity for Sony employees. Then, Jobs said, "I decided to do the same thing, to strengthen the relationship between fellow Apple employees."

Sony, at that time oust the famous Japanese designer, Issey Miyake, designing uniforms for its employees, a multifunctional nylon jacket that can be converted into a vest. On the recommendation Morita, Jobs also see Miyake and argued that he needed a vest design for all Apple employees.

"I came home with samples from Issey Miyake and told everyone that we will use the uniform and for the first time I shouted. Everyone turns to hate the idea," said Jobs to Isaacson.

Even so, it turns Steve Jobs and Miyake relationship continues. Even Jobs is often visited Miyake. From there later Jobs got the idea to create a "uniform" for himself. "The reason that rational," Jobs said simply.

"Because I like something that is practical for my everyday use, then I ask Issey turtlenecks make me some as often he used. I like his style turtlenecks, "said Jobs.

No warning, then send Jobs Miyake turtlenecks in large quantities. "I have enough to wear my lifetime," he joked. Jobs apparently it had already fallen in love with a turtleneck, then in addition to wearing a turtleneck design Miyake, Jobs also often buy their own collection of his black turtleneck, and not from any brand, but St. Croix worth USD175 turtleneck made of cotton and microfiber.

Sales of "turtleneck Steve Jobs" which instantly rocketed it caused many who want to wear a "uniform" to pay homage to Jobs, including celebrities. Until now, Knitcraft mentioned, the flow of consumers who order a "turtleneck Jobs" has not been broken. At least there are 1,000 people booked through Facebook.

Steve Jobs may be the IT leaders who raised turtleneck as a style statement. However, history can be traced to actual turtleneck the 15th century. At that time the turtleneck is a type of clothing that is often used by sailors, who often worked in the middle of the sea wind. However, some reference also shows that British society turtleneck widely used to make the neck stay warm while biking.

From clothing to army uniforms sailors, now turtleneck into clothing all ages and walks of life. Start children to adults, can be sure to have at least one turtleneck in their closet.

The material is also now not limited to wool, but much more diverse. Some are made of thin Lycra so it can be used as clothing in, some are made of layered heavy wool to ward off the cold.

Once Coco Blue dried, I layered OPI's Crown Me Already! (from the Miss Universe collection) - a mix of sparkly microglitter and larger glitter pieces. Finally, I sealed the deal with Zoya Armor topcoat.
