    Lori Harvey Nude Lips: 7 Lip Looks to Try Now

    /

    Welcome to my first Lori Harvey Nude Lips roundup! I literally stalked celebrity makeup artist Sean Harris’s IG for this information. Lori’s best friend, celebrity makeup artist, Courtney Kareem, is another fave of mine for beauty tips. I am always extremely grateful for professionals like Harris and Kareem. They not only post beauty breakdowns but answer fans’ queries! I found a few answers to my own questions this way. Let’s get into these nude lip looks:

    Beyonce Wears Rokael Beauty | Bellus

    Beyonce wears Rokael Beauty Lashes by celebrity makeup artist Rokael Lizama. I hadn’t posted a Bellus Beauty Bite in a minute so I went through my saved Instagram posts for inspiration. I realized I saved several posts from celebrity makeup artist Rokael Lizama. Besides gushing over Baddie Bey (can I still say this or nah?), he also identified specific lash styles the entertainer wore from his luxury faux mink lash brand. Cute, concise, and curation-worthy, here is the end result. Furthermore, Rokael Beauty Lashes is a Latinx-owned small business so naturally it qualified for a little Bellus showcase.

    Black-Owned Brands: 5 Seen at the 2016 VMAs

    /

    I spotted five black-owned brands at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. Take a look: Black-Owned Brands: Coloured Raine (Loraine Dowdy)  x Hood By Air (Shayne Oliver) x Rihanna 2016 Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award Recipient Rihanna was the lady of the night, treating us to four melodic performances of her greatest hits. Per usual, celebrity makeup artist Mylah Morales came through with the glam beat, using Chanel and Caudalie for the face: $400 La Creme Ultimate Skin Regeneration Moisturizer  $60 Le Teint Ultra Tenue Ultrawear Flawless Foundation $58 Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Colour SPF 15 in No. 40 $18 Caudalie Beauty Elixir From what I can tell, Rih had…

    Did you catch Marjorie and Lori Harvey on The Steve Harvey Show today? I just happened to catch the latest episode while getting my gel nails filled. The mom-daughter duo embarked on a 21-day fitness transformation with another mother-daughter team: Ellen and Lana Ector of Gymnastics Fitness. Marjorie opted for a Gucci Resort 2016 Chantilly-Lace Embroidered Dress to showcase her enviable bod as well as an equally splendid beatdown by makeup artist Courtney Gower. The details as follows:

    Shopping #Empire: Cookie Lyon Prison Visit Makeup

    /

    Last season, I yearned to know what products the Empire makeup department used on their leading ladies. I was absolutely famished for beauty tidbits so I hit up IMDB to see who was working in Empire‘s makeup department. I briefly exchanged tweets with the show’s chief makeup artist Beverly Jo Pryor (who was so warm and generous) for a time, asking what shades Taraji wore in certain scenes and with particular outfits. Unfortunately, there was not much she could divulge but I understood. As for Anika, Grace Gealey replied to me and another fan on the ‘Gram to say her makeup artist Jessica Williams used MAC Pro Longwear Lustre Lipcolour in ALL Nighter on her in the episode “False Imposition.” Did you know? You can…
