2nd Annual Naturally Pretty

To my "curlfriends" and beauty enthusiasts:

My friend Mae of Naturalchica.com and I had such a great time and turn out at last year's Naturally Pretty event that we have decided to do it again! We had close to 300 people come out for a great night live entertaiment, beauty demonstrations, sweets, shopping, and lots of swag!

This year's event will be held Wednesday, October 25th at the Defoors Centre in Atlanta, GA from 7-10pm. We are some great things in store so don't miss out! Check out the video recap from last year:

My Top 10 Tips for Natural Beauty

As most of you know I co-hosted a wonderful event called "Naturally Pretty" in Atlanta where we focused on educating women on ways to embrace their natural beauty. This included natural hair care, skin care, nail care, and makeup application. I came up with my top 10 tips for our pamphlet that we created and wanted to share them with those who weren't in town to attend. Enjoy!

1. Drink plenty of water and try adding lemon to clarify skin and help to flush toxins.
2. Always remove makeup before going to bed and wash your pillowcase often.
3. You are what you eat, so eat healthy - Blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, plums, walnuts, whole wheat, salmon, and tuna to name a few. Also try avoiding a lot of fried foods and by all means don't smoke!
4.Beauty sleep. Getting the proper rest helps to alleviate looking tired and puffiness around the eyes.
5. Develop a good skincare regime. Cleanse, exfoliate, moisturize and protect with sunblock.
6. Add a youthful touch with a peach or rosy blush.
7. Eye essentuals. Adding mascara gives any natural look a boost. To accentuate even further, try a dark brown or black liner as well.
8. To achieve a pretty pout, be sure to stay hydrated and try a lip colorthat compliments your cheek color. Also it helps to use lip products with vitamin e and even green tea extract.
9. If you don't want a full coverage face, try using a mineral powder or a tinted moisturizer paired with a foundation primer as your base.
10. A good highlighting powder or cream gives off an instant glow when applied above your cheeks.

Have a POSH, PRETTY day!! -MiMi J.
