The New Year's eve makeup I dare you to wear!

The New Year’s Eve face you wish you wore last year and won’t dare miss wearing this year!
You know the old adage that says a “hair stylist likes to cut”, well the makeup artist likes to color. Rarely do we get to do big, bold, bright makeup. Unless you are going to Mardi Gras, do ballroom dancing, or you are going out for New Years eve and you are ready to wear more than a little black dress like all the rest of the crowd.
I’ve got a short routine for you to do, it’s easy and simple, but will require a few extra tools and the result is going to make you stand out and be photographed!
To start your shopping list: you are going to need spray glitter, gem appliqués from the craft store, liquid latex, big false eyelashes and I do mean, the bigger the better, and preferably a wig for maximum impact.
When you get back to from the store, here’s what to do:
1. Foundation and powder your skin, do the neck and ears, and any chest area that is going to be exposed.
2. Stain your lips with a basic red stain such as Benefits Benetint
3. Begin with your eyes. Draw on a large and bold eyebrow using dark powdered eye shadow and a slant tip brush.
4. Highlight the brow, corner of the eyelid, and cheek bone with the same color: a crème shimmer would work best, but a shimmer powder can work too.
5. Cover the lid with a bright green, go from lashes to the crease of the eye
6. In the eye crease use an eggplant purple shade and make a gentle stroke of contour shadowing
7. Finish with black eyeliner on top and on bottom, but not inside the rim. Color the inside of the rim with a white eyeliner pencil.
8. Make the eye line soft and smoky with a smudge of dark grey eye shadow, like Dreamy from Lorac. Just run the brush through the shadow then over your black eyeliner to make it soft
9. Put your large eyelashes on. If you want to glue some small gem stones on to the ends of the lashes, do that first and let the glue dry before you put them on your eyelids. Use your eyelash curler to crimp them together. Add a coat or two of mascara to help bind them together.
10. Finish the face with a medium warm peach toned blush, and a slick of sheer gloss on the mouth.
Now, what to do with all that glitter? Close your eyes and gently spray your face and neckline and collarbone. Apply with the liquid latex as an adhesive the gemstones from the craft store along your collarbone.
Pull your wig on and a black catsuit with some high heeled boots. Now go party like it’s 1999! Your eye will look like a peacock’s feather, the glitter will reflect in the night club light and the texture of the gemstones on your collarbone will draw people to you to strike up a conversation.
Besides, you know everyone else at the party will have on dental floss for an outfit, a smoky eye with nude lips, or black eyeliner and red lips. Be different! I dare you! Wear more clothes and makeup!
Happy New year my friends!
Sincerely,
Cherelynn Baker

How to make strawberry filled chocolate cupcakes

My recipe for strawberry cheesecake filled chocolate cupcakes
hi, i'll be writing about makeup later, specifically new years eve party makeup, in the meantime, i am doing my holiday baking and getting ready to deliver them to friends. this particular delight is so popular, i thought i would share.

this is my own recipe and i usually do it with brownies, but i ran out of brownie mix.

so i used chocolate cake instead.

make the mix like it says, get a cupcake pan and butter the bottoms and sides: do not save calories and use non stick spray. it's Christmas. it's for Jesus. now eat some butter.

you will need these things to make the filling:

one block of cream cheese

one cup of sugar

one cup of strawberry all fruit spread or jam and a splash of vanilla extract. i say splash because i personally eyeball all of my measurements.

electric mixer the cream cheese mixture until smooth

spread a tablespoon of cake mix in cupcake pans, tap to flatten, drop teaspoon of cremecheese mixture, tap to flatten, top with another tablespoon of cake mix, use toothpick to swirl together.

bake at a low temp, like 320 for about 25 minutes. if they are a wee bit loose, that's okay, let them set up while resting on top of the stove.

woo...hooo!!! good!

Metallics are in, but are they for you?

If you are seeing the Holiday fashion trend reports and they are all screaming " metallics "! The hottest new thing..wait just one moment and let it cool a bit.

If you are on the red carpet and need to make heads turn and have your photo snapped for the next check out stand tabloid, sure.

If you are a normal everyday mom and business woman like me, sure, I would like to make heads turn, but not because of the shocking glare and reflection of the metallic makeup that I am wearing.

Here's the short of what to do with the new metallic trend when it comes to makeup:

1. Less is more

2. A dot, or dash of it on the brow bone, into the eyebrow hair and letting it go just a bit over the arch is perfect and enough for a club party or holiday scene. This is not what you wear to an office party.

3. Focus more on shimmer than on metallic. There are so many brands that have some glitter and shimmer to them that won't be overdone. Check out Urban Decay, Too Faced, Benefit and Nars.

4. If you are going to use this on your cheeks, pick a liquid shimmer and rub in small circles from the center of your face towards the hair line. Add a wee bit at a time til you get the look you want. Try Benefits gold peach liquid shimmer available at Sephora.

5. Lips: bottom lip in the center is perfect and plenty of metallic, if you do the whole mouth it will age you and it makes the skin look pasty.

If you must wear a full mouth of metallic, enjoy the concert and tell us how it went.

For the truly adventurous who have a phenomenal party to go to where the more outrageous the better: get a can of ERA shimmer spray, hose your entire face, while it's still wet, tilt your head back and close your eyes while shaking loose metallic eyeshadow all over your face.

Hold this position for a moment and let it dry. When you bring your head back to the upright position, simply glue on some very large false eyelashes and put a wee bit of clear gloss on your mouth. You my dear , will definately turn some heads and have your picture taken.

Merry Christmas!

Glitter hair pomade! Popular!

On my last production, I created a glitter pomade that the crew and talent loved and they were asking where they could get it. Well, that's the thing. I make it myself.

I start with super fine glitter, you pick the color you want: silver, gold, crystal, translucent..pink!

Take a dollop of clear shine pomade, any brand...here's the key: it needs to be pomade! Not mouse , not gel, pomade.

Mix about a teaspoon of super fine glitter into the pomade and mix thouroghly until all the glitter is suspended into the pomade.

Now work into the hair, over braids, hair pieces, bangs, style with heat or leave it alone. This same technique can be used to create shimmer body art and patterns on bare skin. *Note* do not put any kind of lotion on the skin before applying the glitter pomade because it will slip off.

Enjoy and sparkle it up for the Christmas season!
