We at CasaDeMuse are working on some great things for this upcoming year and we are looking for Models for upcoming projects and events.

My Face Is Soft As a Baby's Bottom

I know that their are a lot of makeup wipe products out on the market that many of you out there swear by, but I'm going to give you the real deal about these products. many of these makeup wipes on the market contains a high level of fragrance, alcohol and a bunch of ingredients that are NOT good for the face. The skin on your face is one of the most sensitive parts of your body which is why anything with high levels of alcohol is not good for the skin. Especially the skin on your face. Many of us have been experiencing break out from some of these wipes on the market( I will not say any names) but it's important to read the ingredient's in products before making a purchase. If you see alcohol listed as an ingredient you may want to stay clear of this product. Moving forward I've gotten a lot of questions about people asking me what I use to wipe the make up off my face and believe it or not I use Pampers unscented sensitive baby wipes. These wipes are alcohol free which means they contains NO ethanol or rubbing alcohol and they have no fragrance. I absolutely love this product to remove the make up off my face, they get the job done it also cost less than what you would pay for those other wipes on the market. And what's even better is that I don't get any break outs. let's be honest if these wipes are good enough for a baby's bottom then they must be good enough for the face :)

The Truth About Red Lipstick

I've been getting a lot of questions about how to wear red lipstick. Red lipstick is something that can be worn to bring your little black dress to life, it can easily make or break an outfit. The only thing about wearing red lipstick is that you can easily make yourself look like bozo the clown if done incorrectly. The truth of the matter is that any woman can wear lipstick it's just a matter of picking out the right shade of red. The first thing you want to do when choosing a red lipstick is to look at your skin tone. The darker your skin tone the darker your shade of red should be. For example, paler skin tones look better in red lipstick that is rich in pink undertones , berry tones and plum tones.

Darker complexions and olive tones look better with golden, Orange and brown based red tones. Now the next thing you may want look at is the shape of your lips, if you have thin lips then lighter shades of red will flatter your lips and make them look fuller, but if you have fuller lips you may want to use darker shades of red.

Now when you actually wearing the red lipstick it's important to keep the eyes neutral. You don't want to do to use too much color so a neutral eyeshadow application or a basic smokey eye would be perfect to bring out your sensual red lips.

Summer Time Cracked Heels

Summer time is FINALLY here and many of us couldn't wait to throw on flip flops or those super cute sandals. HOWEVER , many of you are committing the ultimate NO NO!!!!! and that is forgetting to CHECK THE BACK OF THOSE HEELS!!! crusty heels and feet seem to be the new phenomenon this summer and its running ramped through the streets of New York City. The problem is that many of us feel that once we get a pedicure that's all we need to do to our feet. The truth of the matter is that we need to take more steps to maintain our feet. Here's how to maintain your feet at home with these 3 Simple steps in the shower:

While in the shower you can start by using a Pumice foot stone to wash your feet.

After both feet are washed off you can use a exfoliating foot scrub to exfoliate your feet( I prefer Salley Hansens ultra smoothing foot scrub.

After you have finished your shower and dried off your feet you can lotion your feet using Salley Hansens Hydrating foot creme.


I hope this helps you guys to achieve the smooth feet that I am soooo wishing for lol :)

Nail Art Makes a Come back....

So I opted to jump on the ban wagon( something I don't do very often) and join the nail crazed evolution of nail art. This Trend has quickly become the new "cool" thing to do this summer. I for one am not the type of person to do what everyone else is doing but, I figured "what the hell" let me go for it. I never get any kind of designs on my nails; just a simple polish and I'm good to go. The most I would do to add a little funk to my nails is get a neon color. Anyway, I was looking for a manicurist for a photo shoot I was doing and I was referred to a friend of a friend. When I took a look at her work I was absolutely amazed at her art work. I decided to go out of my element and give her a try. She did such a great job with the art work on my nails. Unlike most nail technicians that I've encountered she was really friendly and attentive to my needs. In addition to the nail art, she gave me the most amazing pedicure (for those of you that live in Brooklyn, NY, you know exactly what I mean when I say it's hard to find a good nail tech that's not gonna rush you out the chair to get to the next customer). Anyway guys, check her out! you can find her on twitter @CampbellSoup_
Here's a picture of of my nails
