When it comes to geometry or arithmetic, equations make sense. But can there be a way to measure beauty?<br />Plato spoke of the “golden proportion”, an idyllic balance of all factors. This idea permeated all facets of Ancient Greek culture, including love and beauty. When it came to true beauty, poets, artists and scholars alike agreed that one factor was key: symmetry.<br />A symmetrical face is scientifically proven to be beautiful. Studies show that humans, from babies to adults, respond better to a proportionate face. So what can you do if your face doesn't add up to the right equation? For many of us, the key to finding this symmetry simply lies in the correct use of makeup.<br />Makeup is used for augmenting natural beauty while making up for flaws. Make-up, get it? There are so many ways to enhance certain features with a simple stroke of the makeup brush.<br />One of the easiest ways to create symmetry is with careful construction of the eyebrows. Eyebrows can be shaped and contoured in a way that no other part of the human face can. In other words, outside of expensive cosmetic procedures a little brow TLC is the best way to create a beautiful face. Correctly sculptured eyebrows punctuate the face and define a person’s look. They can create symmetry where it did not exist before. And with expert micropigmentation, that stunning symmetry can be permanent. </div>Amy Kernahan Makeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13566049321746917170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399800931643437021.post-78574776678488908952010-08-05T19:51:00.000-07:002010-08-05T19:56:45.826-07:00The Best Self Tanner ever!!!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBA7ESlzdYWwdoVHMWjJhYYuQJPZdiNhujTA8hjA8y9S0CumvKgqkh9troRFEGHs0oq9Zfra0MgEWs60tv8NBknFVA_w8uYJWD2QRrwO46s7EG8OQOkPCzbKXyYtje5HdDFc7DSbH1HRY/s1600/259_Self_Tanning_Spray_Can_-_New.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 114px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502124698095890114" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBA7ESlzdYWwdoVHMWjJhYYuQJPZdiNhujTA8hjA8y9S0CumvKgqkh9troRFEGHs0oq9Zfra0MgEWs60tv8NBknFVA_w8uYJWD2QRrwO46s7EG8OQOkPCzbKXyYtje5HdDFc7DSbH1HRY/s320/259_Self_Tanning_Spray_Can_-_New.jpg" /></a><br /><div><br /><br />I try EVERY beauty product known to man...and woman. I hear a lot of complaints about the self tanners out there. Most people say they are too orange, too smelly and hard to apply....and usually, I agree. Well, look no further. I have found the absolute best self tanner!! It all happened when my friend Jill Van <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Otten</span>, my amazing makeup artist friend, was visiting from Florida. I saw this self tanner called SUN in her makeup bag. As a true product junkie, I quickly took it from her makeup bag and spritzed some onto my chest, neck and face. Within minutes, I was in love. It gave me an instant tan and Glow...really, I glowed. I looked brown, not orange and I actually had a hint of red as if I had really been in the sun. This stuff rocks and when I love something I just can't stop talking about it. I immediately ordered the entire line and now carry it at my studio to share with all of my clients!<br /><br />SUN Laboratories just won "Best Self Tanner" by consumer reports. It's so natural looking with no funky smell or <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">orangey</span> look. I owe my friend, Jill a new bottle of self tanner and a huge thank you for introducing me, although inadvertently, to this great new product! TRY THIS and you'll love it!!! Oh, and don't be afraid to get the DARK or ULTRA DARK even for fair skin...the color is subtle and it will look great. </div><div> </div><div> </div><div><strong>* Sun Laboratories products can be purchased on our <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">amy</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">kernahan</span> studio <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">facebook</span> page!!*</strong></div>Amy Kernahan Makeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13566049321746917170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399800931643437021.post-53504887366823181902010-07-14T15:23:00.000-07:002010-07-14T15:33:28.770-07:00Don't Be Afraid of Permanent Makeup<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ZLZjBRCfbBy6GUJypLvE3HMbhfIpd1oxtke3FEphx8SkgJnO1_ZkUxvlvZoh8nPseb5he4f8xE1xR_bV2u7PehiyWgirL0cDiYfsKynTHjxkNy9wc8YIi7hs6zDLjpKuaf7Bc-s69bY/s1600/abby.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 214px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493892782857234434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ZLZjBRCfbBy6GUJypLvE3HMbhfIpd1oxtke3FEphx8SkgJnO1_ZkUxvlvZoh8nPseb5he4f8xE1xR_bV2u7PehiyWgirL0cDiYfsKynTHjxkNy9wc8YIi7hs6zDLjpKuaf7Bc-s69bY/s320/abby.JPG" /></a><br /><div><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,102,102);font-family:Georgia,Times New Roman,Times,serif;font-size:85%;" ><br /><div><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,102,102)"><strong>When you hear the term "permanent makeup" or "cosmetic tattooing" one tends to think of black painted on eyebrows that resemble those of a Geisha girl or your 80 year old grandmother(sorry Grandma), who had her eyebrows tattooed when she was in her twenties and now has bluish colored lines where her brows should be. What we want you to know is that permanent makeup, also known as micropigmentation, does not have to make you cringe when you hear the words. So here's the deal: over the past ten or so years, permanent cosmetics have come a long way. Pigments have more variations in color such as when a hair colorist chooses your hair color. Permanent makeup artists have a range of colors to choose from, sometimes using up to 3 colors to create a "highlight and low light' effect. Also, the word "Permanent" can be taken a little lighter than it used to be. By law, Technicians have to state that their clients are receiving a permanent procedure, however, when the pigment is implanted into the skin at a lesser depth than traditional tattoos, the color will only last 2-5 years depending on care of the tattooed area. With that stated, the client is encouraged to return for a touch up once a year to "refresh" the color. </strong></span></div><br /><div><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,102,102)"><strong></strong></span></div><br /><div><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,102,102)"><strong>Micropigmentation is (literally) changing the faces of many. For those that are a few hairs short of perfection or lack makeup skills to those that suffer from Alopecia, MS, Parkinsons.This is a God send to many busy, active women and men....yes, men are also having this procedure done as well. When done right, this procedure can be nearly undetectable while adding definition to sparse brows and lashes as well as pale lips and fading lip lines. At Smy Kernahan Studio we use only FDA approved pigments and perform the hair stroke method for the most natural looking eyebrows. We also believe that there is a definite benefit by having a makeup artist perform these procedures as we have extensive experience with fine tuning lines and blending techniques as well as a broad understanding of color theory, making it possible for more natural results.</strong></span></div></span></div>Amy Kernahan Makeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13566049321746917170noreply@blogger.com0
