With a nod to the 2nd birthday celebration, as guests departed, they received a “Tips in 2” one sheet outlining simple tips on how to make your life healthier in 2 seconds, 2 minutes, 2 hours, 2 days and 2 years. I thought I would share this useful information.

Mani Monday: Best Purple and Sparkle by Butter London

I am loving this amazing "perfect shade of purple" nail color by Butter London. The color is so versatile…it acts like a neutral and can be worn all year long. I added a sparkly shade on my ring finger as an accent nail for fun.

Wear Purple Make-up On Your Eyes So They Pop!

For a modern and fresh take on your eye make-up routine, try wearing shades of purple.  
Purple eye make-up enhances any eye color (and certainly makes the eyes pop)! Here's how to create the look...

First you need to choose the right eye shadow palette and apply the various shades as shown below. I personally love YSL's eyeshadow palette and eyeliner!

Cover the entire lid with with the lightest shade.

Apply purple color in the crease.  You can mix the palette with the other shades to create depth.

I am thrilled that radiant orchid is the pantone color of the year! This shade looks amazing when worn in the crease of the eyelid. 

 

 

Now apply a deep purple eyeliner just below the lower rim and above the upper rim of your lash line. YSL makes a great one called Shimmering Burgundy and it's the perfect plum with brown undertones. 

Laura Mercier also makes a beautiful violet shade eye pencil that is waterproof too!

Finish with your favorite mascara.
