It’s All About The Lips!

August 7, 2017 by Theresa Taylor Grutzeck Leave a Comment

Step aside lip Shimmers. Creamy Lipsticks are back in a big way, making mouths look refined, full and thoroughly youthful. Here, the rules for doing lipstick right, right now.

Ever struggle with lip color and what shade to wear? Ever wonder what season red is appropriate or even how to wear a red lipstick and with what? Do you ever question what lip color goes with your coloring? To add to the confusion if coral lip colors make you look older than you really are? These are just a few questions we get every day in our beauty boutique. The right color lip color is a game changer, it can make you or break you and make you look more balanced, updated and more youthful than ever. Wearing the wrong color can make you look tired, drab and older than you look.

Now let me tell you, there is no wrong or right in make-up but changing your lip color now and then is not only positive but constructive. Most beauty companies change with the seasons. While this can be confusing to some, many women love this notion. It allows their outer beauty to shine while their inner beauty gets a nice mental lift. Expressing yourself with a lip color brings independence—standing your ground and owning your look with confidence. It means loving yourself; it shows you are proud of who you are and proud to be a woman!

With so many lip colors out there to choose from you need to find a balance; a color- balance to look like you. After you have achieved your color-balance, then you can explore new colors. Right now, the new go to lip color is neutral. Neutrals can be tricky but as a rule, find lipsticks with a soft tone and creamy finish. A nice creamy nude or soft pink finish will hydrate the lips giving them a fuller, smoother look. The prettiest nude color is slightly brighter or deeper than your skin tone. If you’re pale, look for something with a hint of pink. Those with yellow or olive undertones look best with brown nudes and peach nudes, which is the trend as of now.

Not all girls can go for that nude look. If you are the type that likes bright pinks and corals try to find a shade in that family but toned down. Choose the brighter shade based on your lips natural color not your skin tone. Women with pale lips look best in cherry red or soft corals. For naturally reddish lips try a rosy pink or cranberry. For dark lips orange and burgundy’s are ideal. These colors will look current, updated and more polished. Avoid the vampire effect: Blue or black-based shades that are too dark can be severe, aging and even a little scary. Look for lip colors with berry undertones tones if you want to go dark.

If you are struggling with what lip color looks best on you or you don’t know how to choose a lip color for yourself, the professionals at The Rouge Cosmetics can help you choose just the right lip color. They are expert color specialist with years of experience, always updating with the new trends of the season. You will be pleased with the large selection of lip colors and textures they offer by Fleur Visage Cosmetics. At The Rouge Cosmetics they offer color consultations for make-up, custom foundations and of course color consultations for the lips.

Tailor Your Beauty Wardrobe with Custom Foundations

July 6, 2017 by Theresa Taylor Grutzeck Leave a Comment

The correct color foundation is one of the most important beauty products to have for women. It is the coveted beauty accessory and understandably so – it makes the skin look flawless, youthful and healthier, but only with the correct color foundation will you achieve the most natural looking second-skin look.

A customer came in to our beauty boutique complaining she could not find a foundation to match her skin tone and that everything she tried made her look pale, cakey and unnatural. When questioned on what she was currently using, she told us she was using a ”one shade fits all” foundation tint, a cream concealer, followed by an application of a green stick pen and a mineral-based powder. These products and unnecessary steps were way too much, making her look cakey and pale. Plus, she was using products that had very little coverage, and her skin looked overly made-up and thick.

We suggested a custom foundation with AB coverage, with a warmer shade tint, mixed with a beige undertone, followed by a mica powder with 45 percent pigment, thus leaving the skin perfectly matched with full coverage to hide imperfections, leaving her skin looking beautiful and natural. She was elated that her skin looked so beautifully smooth, flawless and natural. Walking out the door, radiating her new-found beauty, she was ready to conquer the world with new confidence.

Foundations are one of the most sought after commodities in cosmetics today. It takes up to four years for a make-up artist to develop an eye for color, thus most beauty counter sales girls do not have the experience, nor do they have the know-how to choose the correct color for women. The “one shade fits all” foundation rarely works for everyone. Our client is a perfect example of someone being sold inappropriate products, not to mention wasted time and money. What women don’t know is that a perfectly matched foundation can make one’s skin go from dull and pale to a radiant glow in seconds. Custom foundations are also great for summer because you can have them made slightly darker from your base color with a bronze glow, giving your skin that natural, warmer summertime sheen. Your skin will look flawless—like not wearing foundation at all!

At The Rouge they have been custom blending foundations and custom powders for over 20 years. They are committed to excellence and ensure that their clients have the most updated cosmetics in the industry. They are available Tuesday through Saturday to help women select the right custom foundation color, while color matching their skin using Fleur Visage Cosmetics.

It will look fresh for summer. If your eyes tend to look red, apply a nude waterline pencil on the inner line of the eyes to take out the red and look refreshed. It will leave your eyes looking bright and not so tired looking. Great for vacations and traveling!

The Next Generation Lip Color

May 8, 2017 by Theresa Taylor Grutzeck Leave a Comment

There’s a certain je ne sais quoi to the natural glow of flushed cheeks and rosy lips. Of course, not all of us are blessed with a perpetual glow and just-bitten pout. But the good news is that the makeup industry has done its best to give us what nature should have through the ingenious invention of lip stains.

While lip stains have been around for a while, the color of the stains were never attractive and they were very drying, but now we have available new, revolutionary technologies in lip stains and they are all about modern colors, super hydration, and feel. Previous lip stains were so drying that we all stayed away, as dry, cracking lips were not worth the application of the stain. But with new technologies in lip stains we can now enjoy a new concept in all-day-wear.

At The Rouge Cosmetics, we are introducing a new revolutionary lip product called Genius Lip Color Stains. These new Genius Lip Stains have perfect staying power and wear-ability, and feel amazing. Our outstanding lip stains include Vitamin E and provide antioxidant protection, all while conditioning lips for continued softness. And, they are paraben and fragrance-free!

This next generation lip color will not only protect your lips but impart long lasting color that stays in place for hours. It moisturizes and provides full-coverage without feeling heavy, sticky or tacky.

Why use lip stains? Many women like to use them because they act like semi-permanent make-up allowing one to have color all day without smearing, fading or feathering. With new, modern colors, they naturally and safely enhance your look for hours on end. Now, you can apply your lip stain and go, focusing on living life to the fullest.

While the Genius Lip Stains are a great way to keep lip color on all day, lip liner stains are also extremely popular, long wearing and waterproof. Our new Luxury Lip Liner Stains glide onto the lips for transfer-proof, non-feathering wear—for up to seven hours! I like to use a lip liner stain for a precision line and to give my lips a fuller look.

For that perfect lip line and to make your lips look fuller, apply a lip liner stain, followed by Genius Lip Color Stain, for all-day, smear-proof perfection.

Stop by The Rouge Cosmetics and master the techniques of the future with a next generation lip color consultation with one of our expert make-up professionals, and find your perfect color with the new revolutionary Genius Lip Color Stain or Luxury Lip Liner Stain.

Ten Simple Skin Care Tips

April 5, 2017 by Theresa Taylor Grutzeck Leave a Comment

Refresh Your Skin For Spring

Play It Cool

Use a toner after cleansing to dramatically balance and refresh the skin and to restore protective pH mantle. Using toners are one of the best-kept beauty secrets to smooth and protect the top layer of the skin. Your complexion will enjoy the results of renewed brilliance and the skin will look smoother and more youthful than ever. Sensitive toners are recommended for best results.

Easy on the Eyes

The eye area is extra delicate, so be sure to use eye cream products specifically formulated for this fragile area. Lighter eye creams with nutrients and anti-puff ingredients are best. Our Premier Firming Eye Cream by Ongrien is one of the finest in anti-aging. It reduces puffiness and dark circles, while preventing premature signs of aging and corrects existing photo damage.

A Light Idea

With the warmer months comes increased dryness in the air. Switch to a more hydrated version of your favorite moisturizer so skin doesn’t get dry and parched, causing wrinkles and fine lines. We highly recommend our Formula 20 for optimum protective for hydration, repair and anti-aging benefits.

Screen Test

All skin types are sensitive to sunscreens. We recommend using sunscreens that are light-weight, contain titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to prevent breakouts and clogged pores. These ingredients will block the harmful UV rays and protect the skin and reduce collagen breakdown.

Dare To Detox

Apply a good organic clay mask to the skin once or twice a week to draw impurities out of the skin and to deeply cleanse and detox pores. It minimizes large pores and congested skin. Ideal for all skin types. We recommend our Organic Clay Masque for optimum benefits.

Get The Glow

Get into the habit of exfoliating the skin every day, this will promote healthy cell renewal and maximize anti-aging benefits without damaging the surface of the skin. A mild exfoliant will provide the skin with exceptional smoothness and tone, while promoting a youthful, smoother complexion. We recommend our Organic Honey and Almond Scrub for maximum benefits for all skin types.

Here’s The Scoop

Antioxidants help protect skin against free radicals. Free radicals cause fine lines and wrinkles to form along with age spots, and skin cancer. Protect yourself with a topical cream that includes Esther-C, Lipoic Acid, Q-10, and DMAE. Powerful antioxidants will prevent collagen breakdown, your skin will look healthier, younger and smooth. Our Regeneration Serum contains a synergistic antioxidant combination of all four ingredients. Ideal for all skin types.

Skin Deep and a Youthful Complexion

Glycolic Acid is one of the most popular alpha hydroxy acids in skin care. It is a valuable addition to many of the super-antioxidants products (such as alpha lipoic acid and DMAE), because it works with other antioxidants, enhancing their antioxidant activity giving you a more youthful appearance. In short, Glycolic Acid aids in smoothing the surface of the skin, reducing wrinkles and decreasing sun-damaged skin.

Beauty Secrets

The secret to beautiful skin is all in the cleansing. If you use harsh products and do not cleanse the skin properly everyday your skin will suffer. Use cleansers and toners that are gentle yet powerful enough to clean deep within the pores and the surface of the skin. Do not use anything that includes alcohol or chemicals.

The Bottom Line

At The Rouge our advanced skin care line “Ongrien” starts with science. Our research team helped pioneer the advent of cosmeceuticals and has continued to lead the industry as one of the first companies to provide scientific evidence to support product benefits. Aroma therapy, organic products, and all natural plant based lines cannot provide the skin with anti-aging benefits, because they do not have the nutrients to support anti-aging cellular renewal or repair.

Beauty News: 10 Facts About Anti-Aging

March 5, 2017 by Theresa Taylor Grutzeck Leave a Comment

There is a lot of confusion about anti-aging products today. To maintain and improve skin health you need an effective skincare regimen that must include antioxidants and nutrients to prevent future damage, protect the health of the skin, and correct existing damage.

Effective skin care that protects, prevents and corrects, starts with antioxidant nutrients including, DMAE, Lipoic Acid, Ester C, Coenzymes and Neuropeptides. These powerful antioxidants have been proven by medical science to reverse and prevent aging.
Aroma Therapy, plant extracts and organic oils do not have nutrients to correct or repair the skins surface, therefore they cannot effectively restore or even improve the skins cellular function. While they smell nice, most people are allergic to highly based plant extract products, causing inflammation.
Innovation and antioxidants is key to reversing the signs of aging. Cosmeceutical skin care lines continue to lead the industry with products that provide scientific evidence to support their benefits.
Using Retin A is a good product as long as you use it in small doses. The skin already thins as you age. Using products to reduce wrinkles by deep exfoliation, will not only damage the surface, it will thin the skin causing the skin to age faster, thus forming fine lines.
You need to build the surface of the skin with vitamins and nutrients to protect it from thinning and forming wrinkles. Highly effective antioxidants and nutrients, especially DMAE, will thicken the skin’s surface, protecting it from sagging and losing elasticity. DMAE firms, lifts, repairs, and improves the skin with extraordinary benefits.
Ester C is a superior antioxidant. When combined with nutrients it neutralizes environmental assaults that can cause fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and serious skin conditions such as skin cancer.
Using an exfoliant every day will not only improve and thicken the surface of the skin, it will allow the skin to function properly avoiding moisture loss and dry skin. I cannot stress enough how important it is to exfoliate every day. Your moisturizers and serums will work much more effectively and they will be able to penetrate into the skin, improving the surface and providing outstanding results in correcting and rejuvenating dry, premature-aging and damaged skin.
Lipoic Acid is 400 times stronger than Vitamin C and is supreme in anti-aging. This powerful antioxidant has exceptional benefits including, repairing and smoothing the surface of the skin. While Ester C is beneficial, taken together with Lipoic Acid will assist in repairing cellular degeneration and support healthy collagen rejuvenation and elasticity.
Cleansing and toning the skin twice a day not only allows the surface to rejuvenate, it lifts impurities and oils caught in pores. If you don’t cleanse the skin twice a day it can’t breathe or function properly and will break down, causing wrinkles to form. Do not use harsh soaps or drying products on the skin; use gentle foaming agents or gels for deep pore cleansing and always follow with a toner to balance pH levels.
Last but not least, using a light combination of antioxidants in a serum-to-gel eye cream that contains anti-puff ingredients is essential to anti-aging and beautiful eyes. A good eye cream will protect the delicate eye area from oxidative stress, and revive under-eye skin and reduce the appearance of puffiness. Eyes that are constantly puffy age faster and look years older because of the constant swelling and receding.

The Rouge Cosmetics provides skin care consultations Tuesday through Saturday to help you with your very own customized skin care program. Invest in your future now with superior antioxidants and healthy nutrition in your skin care regimen. Aging is optional with the new standard of technology in skin care today.

Did the long winter leave you yearning for energizing, glowing color? Introducing spring 2017, with fresh eye-popping palettes borrowed from the bolder side of nature. Inspired by wild and glowing yet natural color, this spring’s beauty colors will invigorate the senses with a splash of fun and saturated hues that coax you out of your sweater and into the sun.

What’s Hot Now

Soft and light nude lips are on the beauty radar this season. Put a little skip in your step by wearing a fresh new color of an enchanting pink to spice up those spring days ahead. Softer is better when it comes to lips, and nude pink glosses are here to brighten your days. I encourage you to switch gears from the winter tones of burgundies and reds to an effortlessly radiant modern nude or voluptuous neutral nude peach or a toned-down pink tone lip.

Color-Blocking Eye Shadow Kits

Chill street-side in subtle, spring eye shadow shades that suit an outdoor weekend with friends or family. Easy and eye-catching eye kits are designed to make life a breeze. Choose a neutral kit for that oh-so-natural daytime look. Eye kits that have a pop of color will give the eyes an edgy uptown finish. Customize your eye kits and blend several colors together for a multi-dimensional, memorable look. Naturally pretty make-up pairs well with a soft baby lip color.

Modernist

“I want a smooth and even complexion that looks natural.” Keeping it real with a beautiful BB Cream will make your skin look ultra natural and smooth. Your complexion will be kept safe from the harmful rays of the sun with a strong SPF 30. Included in this amazing BB Cream is titanium dioxide, a primer, and smoothing peptides that will make your skin flawless and healthy. Adding a hint of light pink shimmer blush will give your skin a timeless, youthful glow.

5 Things You Should Know Before Getting Your Holiday Make-up Done

Whether you’re a beauty lover or not, getting your make-up professionally done is not only a positive experience but it saves you time and money. Whether you’re aiming for that Kardashian glam look or looking for a more subtle, Gigi Hadid-inspired natural look, your make-up is just as important as your hair and dress. The things you should know before getting your make-up done for the holidays may seem obvious, but they’re definitely still important. Whether it’s good skin care or using the right colors of the season, a lot of thought goes into what your look will be and how you’ll achieve it. Going shopping for cosmetics for a holiday look can be stressful with all the thousands of choices, plus how often are you going to use those products again. It can be very expensive buying make-up for a couple of holiday events, getting your make-up done at a professional beauty boutique is not only educational, but cost effective.

While some women do their own make-up for their events, many choose to have their make-up done professionally. They do so because they know the artist will know the latest trends in fashion and that alone can save you hundreds of dollars in make-up mistakes. The professional will also be knowledgeable in colors that are in and what colors are out. You will have more confidence attending that special event while trending the latest style with that new movement in color shift. Some ladies don’t realize they can’t wear a coral lipstick with a red dress, just as you wouldn’t wear a pink lipstick with burgundy dress. A professional will keep you true to yourself and select colors that are perfect for you and the dress you’re wearing.

Whether it’s the scrubs and masque’s you’ll be using the week before an event, or what types of looks you want the make-up artist to do, being informed is the best thing you can do. So what are the things you should know before getting your make-up done for the holidays?

Book Ahead Of Time: Just like you, others in the area will be booking for their make-up sessions. You’ll want to plan ahead and book in advance.
Have A Look In Mind: Whether you want a dark smoky eye or a more neutral look, knowing what you want before your appointment is a great idea. Communication is key when it comes to having your make-up done.
Talk About Foundation: Between the professional photos being taken or selfies, the likelihood of flash being involved is high. Flash can easily create a flashback in pictures that can completely wash you out. Make sure the make-up artist does not use a translucent powder; it’s better to use a powder that is the same color as your skin so you will look good no matter the camera lighting.
Prep Your Skin: Be sure to keep your pre-event skin care in mind before you get your holiday make-up done. The week before the event start using a good masque, like an organic scrub, perhaps a deep exfoliation masque or a hydrating treatment. While make-up artists are incredibly talented, having a great base will make your face look even more flawless and smooth.

Be True To Your Style: While something dramatic is great for holiday events, be true to your style. Don’t’ be so concerned about having a Pinterest-worthy make-up that will leave you fidgeting the whole night.

The team of highly trained professional make-up artists at The Rouge Cosmetics are excited to assist you and will give you the look you will love from on-trend, to super-all-out-glam or a natural youthful glow. They offer holiday make-up for all types of events. Please book your appointment early and in advance for best availability.
