Beauty Tip Tuesday: Create a Super Surreal Organic Foundation Finish Anti-aging product worshipers and anyone seeking refuge from a bad skin day will eagerly break out their credit cards for this beauty. Rating high with skin finishes of all brands is the mystical Atmosphere Soft Focus Foundation. VAPOUR Organic Beauty has created the pentacle of all organic foundation formulas with this formula. Here’s the skinny: Its revolutionary formula includes a light reflective technology, setting it apart from all others who are only similar in classification. It’s a creative collective of 70% organic ingredients and 30% natural mineral pigments and vitamins. In summary, it brightens, nourishes and ensures anti-inflammation.   The finish is better than surreal - not the kind of Salvador Dali surreal that has your face melt into an artistic movement distortion - the kind of surreal that camouflages and makes one look much younger. Application is a smooth process with no more than two pumps to apply by fingertip or favorite eco-friendly brush.  Add this to your cosmetic wardrobe as a try on, although I’m confident it will be more of a glorious relationship with an old friend. Find all ten shades of  the multi-award winning formula at vapourbeauty.com - Mary Winkenwerder

Beauty Tip Tuesday: The New Red for Summer on Your Lips Nothing screams sexy like a red lip. But not everyone knows how to sport this classic look since there are so many shades. Seeing the finished product is so much more logical to the immediate eye than actually creating the look. The perils of understanding how to best wear red can be enough to send any pro red-wearing consumer into hour-long frenzies ending in bleeding color and a bruised ego when it does not turn out as expected. What’s a girl to do when she wants to wear red this season? Often heralded as one of the founders of beauty, Marilyn Miglin has created a reputation on helping women live up to their full beauty potential for nearly three decades that I can recall.  In her many beauty solutions is one shade of red that sticks out above all others for the mainstream masses this spring and summer. Lipstick Vitamin C Café du Jour captures the sexy flash of red grounded in the richness of a nutty neutral tone. To make this even more appealing, the formula is created with the pure antioxidant protection of Vitamin C. Ladies, this is one red color that refuses to age your appearance!  Get your red lip look. To create your warm-weather red lip, start with a neutral tone lip lining pencil, and line the exterior of the lips. Take a warmer neutral toned lip lining pencil and line immediately inside the initial line. You should have two lines of neutral tone lining your lips. Apply Café du Jour directly onto lips or with a professional applicator brush.  This lip color formula is so rich and does not require any gloss application. It’s that simple!  Now that you have the keys to the red lip creation castle, taking lips to that fantasy look should be a breeze. There’s no bleeding with this red, and it is so affordable that buying just one is not an option. At long last, this frustration is over and the classic red lip is now yours! Vitamin C Café du Jour is the new red! Add this to your beauty arsenal by visiting www.marilynmiglin.com.  - Mary Winkenwerder
