"Shadow Shields"

Check out another AMAZING and super INNOVATIVE product I just discovered:)

Shadow Shields

Innovative and unique, Shadow Shields are a dependable solution for eliminating messy “raccoon eyes” caused by dreaded eye shadow fallout. Being hailed as “The Red Carpet Secret Beauty Product,” and as “The Best New Find…,” Shadow Shields are giving women everywhere the confidence they need to apply eye makeup, while making the job of a makeup artist a little easier! “This is a great product for real women doing their makeup! Many of my clients struggle with doing a dark, smoky eye and not getting shadow all over the place- this product is great for them!” ~says Lisa, FORD Modeling Agency Makeup Artist, Chicago.
Shadow Shields are disposable, light-weight adhesives that easily attach under the eye to catch falling makeup residue and prevent the need for unnecessary touch-ups! The adhesive on the back of the shield is strong enough to hold it in place so users can keep their hands free, while also being gentle enough for the sensitive skin around the eyes.
“They are great! And a fabulous alternative to the usual powder-under-the-eye trick!” ~says Mally Roncal, celebrity makeup artist.

Benefits• Protects under eye area from eye shadow fallout
• Self Adhesive
• Saves Time
• Eliminates Mess

Helpful Tips





• Remove only top corners to apply. If more adhesion is needed, remove entire top strip.
• Application of shield doesn’t have to be directly on lash line- it can be applied under the bulge of the eye or wherever most comfortable.
• When applying shield, allow backing to crease-it will form a small lip, helping to catch the fallout!

Michelle is a makeup artist, mother and creator of makeup’s newest must-have tool, Shadow Shields!

“Whether it was trying to get myself ready with twin boys running around, or making sure that my client was on time, I knew that I had to create something that would help every woman, every makeup artist save that extra 10-15 minutes it was taking to touch up the mess of eyeshadow fallout!,” says Villanueva.

TRI-NI-TEE 5 7 Uses "Color by Cynde Watson" Cosmetics

BET and GRAMMY Award Nominees Urban Gospel Group TRI-NI-TEE 5 7 Uses "Color by Cynde Watson" Cosmetics

I love the other members too:) CHENELLE HAYNES (who has one of the most unique and amazing voices I've ever heard)(center in photo below) and ANGEL TAYLOR (who is also Co-Host of BET 106 & Gospel)(far left in photo below)

I am very excited that they all wear "Color by Cynde Watson” Cosmetics


TRI-NI-TEE 5 7 Uses "Color by Cynde Watson" Cosmetics

Tips for cheeks with Cynde Watson

Tips for cheeks with Cynde Watson

• When selecting a blush shade, choose one that matches the natural tone in your cheeks when flush.

• When applying gel or cream blush, smile then on the apples of your cheeks. Simply use three dots of color to start, then build to desired intensity.

• Always keep your blush and lip color shades in the same color family. This doesn’t mean you need to match the colors exactly – just make sure the tones are the same.

• To give the appearance of lifted cheeks, add a shimmer highlighter over your blush or on the height of your cheekbone. Be careful not to overdue shimmer on the skin as you want a healthy-looking glow; not one that looks greasy or oily.

• Bronzers help enhance the skin's radiance to give skin a warm sun-kissed look. Bronzers can also be used to correct skin tone imperfections by using them to help balance uneven skin and as a contour to sculpt the jaw line and nose.

• All women can benefit from adding a little color back into their skin or correcting skin imperfections. I love bronzers because they provide a “quick fix” to help skin look radiant, flawless and healthy.

Cynde's Quoted in August 09' Glamour Magazine

I'm Quoted in August 09' Glamour Magazine

Q
Michelle Obama always looks so polished-got any scoop on that?

A
She has the best look, says NYC makeup artist Cynde Watson,"since you notice her radiance,not her makeup." Dust cheeks with berry blush, then sweep on a neutral eye shadow(like brown or gray) and a pinky-nude lipstick. As for her gorgeous skin, I hear she uses alpha hydroxy pads to keep it looking fresh. Whatever she's doing, it's working!."

Skintone tips with Cynde Watson

Skintone tips with Cynde Watson

Most skin tone shades are either warm or cool. Your skin tone is determined by your facial coloring or undertone – regardless of your natural hair color, eye color or nationality.

COOL SKINTONES

You will see pink/rosy/red tones when you look in the mirror.
Jewel-tone colors look the most natural on you such as pink, cherry red, amethyst, cobalt, forest green, pearl, deep mahogany brown, pewter and platinum.

You’re fair with pinkish beige skin = COOL / BEIGE
You’re medium with ruddy sand skin = COOL / SAND
You’re dark with rustic-brown skin = COOL / BROWN

WARM SKINTONES

You will see yellow/golden tones when you look in the mirror.
Earth-tone colors look the most natural on you such as peach, brick red, plum, camel, olive green, bronze, gold, chocolate brown and cream.

You’re fair with peachy beige skin = WARM / BEIGE
You’re medium/tan with olive sand skin = WARM / SAND
You’re dark with golden brown skin = WARM / BROWN

How will you know if you’ve chosen the CORRECT skin tone category?

Your skin tone will appear healthy and radiant.
Your eyes will appear bright and awake.
The natural highlights in your hair will appear more reflective.

How will you know if you’ve chosen the INCORRECT skin tone category?

Your skin tone will appear unhealthy and dull; skin imperfections will appear more obvious.
Your eyes will appear droopy and tired.
Your teeth can appear slightly discolored.

The above guidelines work for most women. However, some skin tone shades fall in between warm and cool due to sun exposure, self-tanners or coloring of hair. If this is the case for you, stay as true to your natural undertone as possible when selecting your foundation shade then, use your Bronze to add warmth and color to your face.
