Leesi B's advice on Exfoliation...Exfoliation and Makeup
If you’ve ever wondered why your makeup doesn’t apply as flawlessly as another girl’s, non-exfoliated skin may be your culprit. Chicago makeup artist Elise Brill, owner of Leesi B Cosmetics, says exfoliated skin is key to any precise makeup application. She said skin is generally uneven because of factors such as sun damage, outdoor elements, nutrition, hormones and uneven sunscreen application, but one of the major reasons is not cleansing the skin properly. Brill recommends gentle exfoliation about two to three times a week. Once your skin is exfoliated, your skin care, foundation, powder or tinted moisturizer will glide on more evenly, she said.

Who needs melting heavy makeup and oily summer skin? Here is help for these common summer beauty glitches.


NIX MAKEUP MELTDOWNS

“I love to introduce women to tinted moisturizer in the summer,” says Elise Brill, a Chicago-based professional makeup artist and the owner of
Leesi B Cosmetics. “I find many women have never tried it. A tinted moisturizer is very lightweight, most contain an SPF, and it will help even out your skin without feeling heavy,” she explains. “I love the fact that you are protecting your skin and you’re still able to have a glow without adding a full-coverage foundation.”

 

Brill also likes this fresh summer-make-up look: Start with a clean face and apply tinted moisturizer, eye shadow (use eye-shadow primer first to help keep the shadow from collecting in the creases of your eyelids), two coats of mascara, bronzer and a quick pop of lip gloss. Voilà!

 

Perfect Lip Color

Getting the Perfect Lip Color

Having trouble finding the perfect lip color? One of my all time favorite lip tricks is already in your makeup bag. Lightly line your lips with a your favorite
lip liner. Then dab with your finger your favorite blush color…yes, your favorite blush color, and apply blush color to your lips. Then apply gloss. Blush is highly pigmented with color, and this will give your lips a pop of color without the look of lipstick. This is a great makeup trick that I use for many photo shoots. you can also use the blush on your lips, line slightly and use no gloss over it for a pop of color without a glossy finish.
