Say GOODBYE to eyeliner woes!!

I am a lover of the winged eyeliner look but have never liked liquid liner that comes out of a tube with the tiny brush applicator. It's way to akward to work with. You can never achieve a professionally perfect line. You end up having to make your eyeliner thicker than you had intended because it goes on uneven and thick. I then resorted to using an angled brush with black cake powder to create the winged eyeliner look. Following with filling it in using the angled brush and liquid liner. This technique I found worked great but was very time consuming. I also was getting frustrated with the choice of liquid eyeliners out there. Some would either smudge or run by some point in the day and other smudge proof brands where too thick and dryed tight on my eye lid making them look wrinkly. Wrinkles!!!! No Thank you!!


Alas!!! My prayers have been answered with a new eyeliner from Japan called K-Palette 24 hour Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner. The pakaging ain't pretty but it bloody well works! The super fine felt tip allows you to be precision perfect! I LOVE it! It doesn't smudge....literally. It's true to it's 24 hour claim and the formula isn't thick so it will never flake and never cause your eye lids to WRINKLE!!! The best part is.......are you ready! It just washes off with water. There is no need for eye makeup remover that can sometimes be harsh or irritating. Just water and your facial cleanser should do. K-Palette 24 hour Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner now has a perminent place in both my professional and personal make-up case!


P.S. Clients with sensitive eyes have even found they were able to use this product due to it doesn't run or smudge. Everyone is different of course but it is certainly worth a try!

Shaving can be pleasant

For more years than I care to remember "The Daily Shave" was not always that part of the day that I looked forward to.Until a few years ago, when my son Marc introduced me to a Shave Oil and a Shave Cream made by Anthony, I now perform my daily routine with some degree of pleasure.I find it best after my shower when I apply the Oil followed by a brushless Shave Cream massaged into the skin. Using a standard 2 or 3 blade safety razor I obtain the smoothest and closest shave ever.The secret is in applying a very thin layer of the cream. I find that my razor will stay sharp for the longest time.I have recommended this method to some friends that had complained of a burning rash following their shave. They now feel like I do and shaving doesn't have to be the necessary torture they once endured.Try it and let me know.Dad
