Boy Crazy
I’ve fallen head over my Balenciaga platform heels for a soldier boy. Love (or as he might prefer major like), ladies and gentleman, is truly genius for the skin. LGS, as I will refer to him here, makes me so giddy I managed to shun makeup a few times when we ventured out together. Ok, antidepressants and the wonders of psychopharmacology help too but seriously, I glowed. Unfortunately my handsome man is being deployed and I must resort to keeping up appearances for vanity’s sake, and his . Besides donning sky high boots and tight jeans when we reunite in the flesh, I must now look “good” on Skype across international waters. What delivers live: Flawless skin and saturated lips. My secret: A layer of MAC Strobe Cream ( the cult classic) and a smattering of the new MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation, a fabulous compact cream makeup (apply it with a sponge or brush) that goes on beautifully soft. My other weapon: a flush of neutral MAC blush powder (there are several workable shades) that manages to achieve a natural (really) lit from within radiance. Then, I depth to my image on screen with luscious lips. When LSG gives me a kiss from cyber space I like a swipe of Jemma Kid gloss , appropriately titled Rendezvous (check it out at Target) so I can send him some love right back.
