This year while covering The MAKEUP SHOW-Chicago for It’s A Glam Thing, I not only had the pleasure of meeting the Emmy nominated celebrity makeup artist and founder of Senna Cosmetics, Eugenia Weston, but had an opportunity to have Ms.Weston do a makeover on me.

Meet Eugenia Weston:

Eugenia is one of the most gracious, soft spoken, congenial women I’ve met, and by the time I left the Senna booth, looking better than I have in ages, Eugenia had agreed to do an interview with me. As you can imagine, I was ecstatic the rest of the day! This was a dream come true!

Eugenia Weston is the consummate makeup artist who is not only able to visualize an idea for a makeup product, have the creativity to develop that product, but ultimately create the finished product that is able to be used and enjoyed by all!

Learn more about Eugenia, as with great pleasure I present…
My interview with Eugenia Weston…

VICKI:
Eugenia, what inspired you to follow an artistic career in makeup artistry and product development?   

EUGENIA:
Do you believe in destiny? I knew that I was literally born to do makeup. My inspirations have always come from fashion, cinema, theatre, photography and art. I’ve always been intrigued with faces.

I developed products out of need. Before Senna, I started doing freelance makeup and the products and colors available were very limited. I had a definite vision of beauty and couldn’t find the right cosmetics to fulfill my vision. I would mix and blend colors from many established store brands to create the shades that defined what is still my signature style today, clean and beautiful makeup. My clients loved the natural looks I created with these colors and requested them. I explained that I would have to mix them up, and they said, “I want them.”. So I began to create colors and products in my kitchen for my customers.

VICKI:
That certainly was destiny, Eugenia! At what point did you experience that “ah-ha” feeling and know that you and your career were moving in the direction you had hoped for?

EUGENIA:
My career and brand has evolved over the years from my passion for making up faces. I knew that I would never do anything else in my life. Creating Senna Cosmetics was my “ah-ha” moment!

VICKI:
Your list of celebrity clients in both film and television is quite remarkable. Was there a memorable “moment” while working with one these “personalities” that you’d like to share with us?

EUGENIA:
Working with Bette Midler on the film Down and Out in Beverly Hills (Disney, 1986) enabled me to learn more about the film industry. I had only done print and stage work prior. Bette wanted me to be her makeup artist on all of her films. She arranged for me to be trained by legendary film makeup men, as I was not familiar with this genre. I am forever grateful.

VICKI:
Your Face Sculpting Kit has honestly changed my whole look! It’s different than anything I’ve ever experienced, and has cut my makeup time in half. Why does it have such a positive impact on a person’s face?

EUGENIA:
Balance and proportion creates beauty. Highlighting and shading are essential in achieving a more perfect facial structure. There’s nothing like Senna’s Face Sculpting Kit on the market. The gray brown color imitates real shadows so they look natural on film, TV and real life. The highlighters enhance features. I learned this technique of face contouring when being mentored by the legendary film makeup artists Bob Mills and Bob Schiffer. The formula never streaks, blends easily and melds into the skin.

VICKI:
It’s really an outstanding product! You also are very well known for your remarkable “Form A Brow Kit®” !  Why do most of us have such frustrations with our eyebrows, and what was your motivation to create this kit?

EUGENIA:
Most women are frustrated with their brows because they’re not artists and can’t figure out the what, where and how. Working with so many women in my makeup and brow studios, I come up with solutions to address these issues and brows were a big one. I created Form-A-Brow® Stencil Kit out of a need. I would hand cut every stencil myself for each client, over 600! It became such a hit we put them into production in the early 1990’s and a new beauty category was born.

VICKI:
What are some of your thoughts regarding makeup application that women need to be aware of as they go through the different stages and ages in their lifetime?

EUGENIA:
There are so many great products on the market today, so education is vital. I suggest going to an expert that is knowledgeable and understands these different stages. Professional makeup artists need to key into the life styles of their client in order to make the proper suggestions.
Must have tips:
Use eyeliner in the upper water line to make lashes look fuller. Use anti-aging and moisturizing facial serums plus a SPF30 daily to nourish and protect skin. Use a foundation primer under makeup to smooth skin. Because brows fade with age, fill in with powder color, pencils or tinted brow gels to create definition.

VICKI:
Please tell us about your involvement in the American Cancer Society’s “Look good, Feel Better” program.

EUGENIA: 
Makeup is a very healing experience. The American Cancer Society’s ‘Look Good, Feel Better’ program caught my attention because I love helping women look better which makes them feel better. I wanted to volunteer and give back with one on one pampering and uplift their spirits since they are going through such a traumatic period in their lives. Wearing makeup really helps them face the world in a normal manner. Most of the women never had a makeup lesson. They always leave so happy.

VICKI:
Would you share some hints for summer looks that our readers will enjoy from your new Summer 2013 Sunglow Collection?

EUGENIA:
Complexion is made soft, dewy and translucent with our BB Cream, Barley Base Sheer Mineral Makeup SPF20. It’s an amazing 4-in-1 makeup and skincare product that’s essential for the summer season. Add warmth and glow by dusting Brilliant Bronze over the face using our luxurious Powder Point 33 Brush. This ethereal lightweight and radiant baked bronzer gives a natural illumination to the entire face. It also contains anti-aging pearl powder that helps to hydrate and nourish the skin.

Eyes pop with emerald green and sparkling bronzes. I like incorporating the shades from the Brilliant Bronze into the eye makeup to add warmth. Eyeliner is essential in makeup for the season. Our new Ultra Last Eyeliner pencil is a must have to beat the heat because it is smudge proof and waterproof. I always line inside the upper water line as it creates clarity to the eye and makes lashes look fuller.

Lips: A slash of bold orange coral color looks great on tanned and bronzed skin. To add dimension, dab Midas Cream Lipstick, a golden glow, over the bold lip colors.

VICKI:
Eugenia, I can’t thank you enough for taking time from you busy schedule to share all of this fabulous information with us! Your dedicated and ongoing work in the cosmetic and skin care industry with your wonderful SENNA products is simply incredible!

Here is a special treat that Eugenia has made possible for me to share with all of you. Senna’s beautiful Summer 2013 Sunglow Collection is absolutely gorgeous.

There’s no doubt that Lady Gaga, is a very beautiful young woman, talented singer, musician and performer. Her “sultry” demeanor always seems to be present whether she’s presenting her “darker” side, espoused by the younger crowd, or her “lighter” side when she’s sharing her vocal talents with seasoned singing stars like Tony Bennett with whom she recently teamed up with and recorded a Jazz Album. That kind of diversity gives Lady Gaga her ability to captivate audiences of all ages!

Just as Lady Gaga dons very creative and unique attire as she changes her persona to embrace whatever venue she is engaging, her new fragrance LADY GAGA FAME is no different!

On the “Dark” side, in it’s oval shaped glass bottle, LADY GAGA FAME actually IS a black fluid! However, as you spray this delightfully intriguing scent it’s clear, rendering the “Light” and that ever present “seductive” appeal!

I find this one of the most subtly captivating fragrances I’ve tried! LADY GAGA FAME is available at “retailers worldwide”. I highly recommend that you go to a department store and personally give it a try!

I’d like to share this description of LADY GAGA FAME from the press release information I received that states,”The scent is built around three main accords- dark, sensual and light.”
• The Dark accord : “inspired by Belladonna, the deadly nightshade possessed by haunted beauties since the 18th century.”
• The Sensual accord :
“A fusion of dripping honey, saffron and apricot nectar.”
• The Light accord:
“The rich floral layer of crushed Tiger Orchid & Jasmine Sambac expressing timeless beauty.”

“Those above three accords bring about floral and fruity elements, with the principal ingredient inspired by Belladonna balancing the whole fragrance and giving LADY GAGA FAME its signature as a scent.”

That truly articulates the essence of Lady Gaga’s distinct fragrance!!

I believe LADY GAGA FAME could easily appeal to the “dark”, “light”, and “sensual” side of anyone’s personality with the perfect compatibility and harmony of the ingredients , and be appreciated by all for it’s uniqueness… just like the intrigue of Lady Gaga herself !

LADY GAGA FAME is Lady Gaga’s first fragrance. It was launched through her own Haus Laboratories in affiliation with Coty marking another new breakthrough from this multi-enterprising entertainer! !”
LADY GAGA FAME gets a 5-Star review! Give it a try! You never know….It might bring out a whole new side of your personality!

As Lady Gaga says, “Enjoy the first ever fragrance from Haus Laboratories. FAME, a beautiful prospect with a dark heart. X GAGA”

I was introduced to UNITE® Hair products about four years ago, and since then, I’m always enthusiastic when I’m able to share some of the great looks you can achieve with the versatility of UNITE® !

What impressed me the most is that you can always find just the right product in the UNITE® line for whatever “effect” or “look” you’d like to achieve.

When you go to this page on their website:
http://www.uniteeurotherapy.com/product-knowledge, you’ll get a view of their product line, and see what I mean! UNITE® has a full range of products to “cleanse”, “condition”, “style”, and “finish” your hair, along with “treatments” for your hair, as well!

The real plus is that on most of the products you “click” to view, there’s also a video that shows you what the product can do for your hair!!

Now let’s check out some “Easy-Breezy” summer looks!

#1-THE MESSY BUN
THE MESSY BUN
This modern twist of the the classic bun is a real winner! It’s perfect for a casual,”no fuss” look that keeps the hair off your face, and is perfect for a relaxing weekend, or day at the beach, and literally takes no time to do!

Create your Messy Bun by using a product like UNITE TRICKY Lite Finishing Spray. ($31) Spray on damp hair to add some texture to your hair. (TRICKY Lite is a great choice for finer hair.) Let your hair air dry, then pull it up into a high bun at the crown of your head. Secure your hair with bobby pins, and you’ll have a great style with staying power, some definition, yet a very relaxed and carefree look!

#2 THE SLEEK PONYTAIL:
THE SLEEK PONYTAIL
The ponytail is such a trending style right now so be prepared to turn heads where ever you go when you wear your Sleek Ponytail!

Create your Sleek Ponytail by using a texturizing powder like UNITE Hair Expanda Dust ($26.25). All you need to do is very lightly sprinkle the Expanda Dust around the roots of your hair. Keep in mind.. A little goes a long way! Wait till you see the volume in your hair! Sweep your hair into a ponytail using a paddle brush to smooth the sides. Leave the top “voluminous”! Your final step is to secure your ponytail with a holder.

#3 BEACHY WAVES:
BEACHY WAVES
Your hair will impart effortless “Beachy Waves” that will look like you just took a swim in the ocean when you use a sea salt-water texturizer like the easy to use UNITE BEACH Day Texturizing Spray.

Get ready for your tousled beachy waved, full, irresistible sexy hair with this light and versatile spray.($29.95)

What do you think of these “Easy Breezy” summer Looks? Aren’t they amazing?

Well…I didn’t forget about all of you Glam Gals with short hair!

I had some fun with my wavy but fine short hair by using all three of these UNITE® products to create a “summer saavy” and very trendy look that is so versatile and can go chic, fun, casual, and dressy, depending on what you are wearing, and how you accessorize your look.

Short wavy hair after using:
UNITE®’s:
BEACH DAY – Texturizing Spray
EXPANDA Dust – Voluminzing Powder
&
TRICKY lite Spray – Finishing Wax

All I did after washing my hair was spray UNITE BEACH Day Texturizing Spray in my hair. I diffuse dried my hair shaping the “sides down smooth” and “shaping in” my very short “Fringe” bangs that frame my forehead!

I then very sparingly used the UNITE EXPANDA™ Volumizing Powder around the crown and top of my head. Really….you can always add more and build the volume, but less IS best!!
Now I had tons of volume, and used the TRICKY Lite Finishing Spray to achieve more definition and separate my hair. I like to wear it “higher and pulled forward” just a bit on the top! I lightly scrunched the waves around the crown and sides for a soft yet edgy look. I added a few more sprays of the TRICKY Lite Finishing Spray on the roots to support the shape of my cut.

Whether you have long or short hair, unleash your “creativity” with the fine products from UNITE®.

I believe that this day in age most of us have considered the possibility of having a cosmetic procedure. After all, there are a number of treatments and procedures now available that are non-invasive, and require very little, if any, downtime.

The blind “online” ASDS consumer survey was actually the “first-ever” administrated by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS), with regard to Cosmetic Dermatogic Procedures ! It was carried out earlier this year via the web based Zoom Panel Service.

Consumers were asked to give their views on “cosmetic treatments in general” and then rate “10 particular procedures, from wrinkle-relaxing injections and body sculpting to laser hair removal.”

The results:
Quoting the survey data,“While 6.4 percent of those surveyed previously had a cosmetic treatment, nearly 30 percent said they were considering a procedure. When asked what provider they chose, consumers not only picked dermatologists as the physician of choice for nine of the 10 procedures, but also said dermatologic surgeons are their dermatologist of choice in nine of the 10 categories.”

That’s quite a positive statement that expresses a lot of confidence in the dermatologic surgeons. It comes as no surprise after reading this quote from ASDS President, Timothy C. Flynn, M.D.stating,“Board certification tells potential patients that a doctor is highly trained and most qualified to care for their skin health and beauty needs!” “That training and qualifications are key reasons consumers choose dermatologic surgeons.”

Those who took the survey seemed to agree, and felt that dermatologists had more of an impact on consumers and “their” determination to have a cosmetic procedure than that of their “friends, physician referrals, or 11 other choices!” The area of Board Certification in which a doctor excelled was the most important consideration when considering a cosmetic procedure. It even won out over “the cost, physician referrals, and eight other choices!”

What was the consumer’s objective for looking into a cosmetic treatment?
Here’s the “top” reasons they mentioned :
• “Looking as young as I feel for my age.”
• “Appearing more attractive.”
• “Feeling more confident!”
Those are very realistic and reasonable expectations when seeking procedures such as this.

What were their concerns?
• Over 80 percent expressed that their weight was the cosmetic condition that “bothered” them the most.
Followed by:
• Lines and wrinkles around the eyes (63 percent)
• Skin texture and/or discoloration (62 percent)
• Sagging facial skin (61 percent)
• Excess fat under the chin (60 percent)
• Lines, wrinkles and/or folds in the mid-face around the cheeks and mouth (60 percent)

What procedures were these consumers looking into?
According to the survey:
• Ultrasound
• laser
• Light and radio frequency treatments for wrinkles
• Laser and light treatments to reduce facial redness, improve skin tone or improve scars
• Body sculpting

“Thanks to advances in cosmetic surgery – many spearheaded by dermatologic surgeons, noted Dr.Flynn, dozens of cosmetic treatment options are available to consumers today,”

In conclusion, these consumers gave “highest overall satisfaction rates” to cosmetic procedures performed by dermatologists more often than by other practitioners!”
Examples being:
• Injectable wrinkle treatments (92%)
• Injectable filler treatments (92 percent).

Dr. Flynn remarked that,“Patients rightfully demand satisfaction, and dermatologic surgeons provide that with their training and expertise. With these procedures being performed by so many dermatologic surgeons,it’s no surprise that they have the highest patient satisfaction rates. We are the skin experts.”

After reading the following information below about the ASDS, I recommend that you then take a moment to visit their very informative website at:
www.asds.net

About the ASDS:
“The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) is the largest specialty organization exclusively representing dermatologic surgeons who have unique training and experience to treat the health, function and beauty of your skin. ASDS members are pioneers in the field. Many are involved in the clinical studies that bring popular treatments to revitalize skin and fill and diminish wrinkles to the forefront. Their work has helped create and enhance many of the devices that remove blemishes, hair and fat, and tighten skin. Dermatologic surgeons also are experts in skin cancer prevention, detection and treatment. As the incidence of skin cancer rises, dermatologic surgeons are committed to taking steps to minimize the life-threatening effects of this disease.”

You can always look to L’Occitane for just the right aroma for any moment! I must say that the presentation of this summer’s Provencal Eaux de Cologne Collection, along with it’s subtle refreshing aroma that brings summer in Provence to you with merely a light mist of fragrance…is truly magnifique!

The tall etched “generous” 10.1 ounce spray bottle,inspired by “the architecture of the Provencal Fountains” is absolutely stunning!!!

I received a bottle of Eau Ravissante and love to start the day by surrounding myself with the whisper of “ Mediterranean bergamot , and Damascena essential oils” that produce lovely “soft floral” with “fruity citrus tones” that are very subtle, yet lingering! (Price:$52.00)

Eau Captivante provides a “woody” and “sparkling green” scent with aromatic Provencal herbs, lime, and the “essential oils”, Mediterranean mint and basil.” Eau Captivante is an aroma that both women and men will equally enjoy!
(Price:$52.00)

L’Occitane’s Eau Universelle is another aroma that can be worn by women and men! It’s a wonderful clean and refreshing scent of citrus fruits. “Mediterranean bergamot and grapefruit essential oils create a very long lasting and invigorating freshness of “sunny citruses,” that are perfect for the warm summer weather!(Price:$52.00)

Here’s a great bonus!! If you’d really like to keep cool and fresh, or just need a “pick-up”, you may refrigerate any of your L’Occitane Provencal Eaux de Colognes! Let me tell you …. That’s refreshing!!

Visit the L’Occitane website:

This was the first time I’ve had an opportunity to try Nurisha™ Naturals. As their website states, “Nurisha’s goal is to make beauty uncomplicated for modern women.” I truly appreciate that, and Nurisha™ has accomplished that intent with their line of products for skin and body!

Nurisha™ offers:
“The highest quality and naturally derived ingredients in their product line with… products that do NOT contain parabens, sulfates, phthalates, artificial colorants, and fragrances!”

Your benefit ~ “ A lovely complexion that is healthy, glowing, and products that are suitable for all ethnicities and types of skin!” Nurisha™ Naturals is a very convenient and easy to use line of skin and body care products .

I received three Nurisha™ products to try:
• The “New” Purifying Facial Cleanser Treatment
• The “New” Peptide Concentrate Eye Gel
and…
• The “New” Moisturizing Facial Treatment

Before I share my experience with the trio of products from Nurisha™ Naturals that I used… I must say that after using Nurisha™ a couple of days, I realized that these three products delivered the “feel” that I’m used to on my skin, to attain a sufficiently cleansed and hydrated face, neck, and firmer look to my eye area! That’s impressive for me, being person who has a tendency to use a number of products to care for my skin! Oh… there are additional products I’ll purchase on Nurisha™ Naturals website, but these three products really did the trick!

First, I cleaned my face with the Purifying Facial Cleanser !

Talk about versatility, with the aloe vera which is one of my favorite healing ingredients, and chamomile , known for it’s calming value, Purifying Cleanser was so comfortable and cooling on my skin.

In addition, this Purifying Cleanser has a blend of botanicals that really stimulate your skin as it thoroughly cleans, and yes …removes your makeup, too!

I don’t have dry skin, but it does get dehydrated, and this cleanser really felt good, and did not leave my face feeling tight or dry… just clean!! (Price:$32.00)

Next, I used the Peptide Concentrate Eye Gel.

The information from Nurisha™ said it’s benefit was to “smooth, soothe, and tighten”! Those are three priorities I have for an eye care product! Once again I felt very confident about using this Eye Gel . It also contains aloe vera , which helps with skin inflammation, and keeps the delicate area around your eye area hydrated. One thing I learned from Nurisha’s product information that I didn’t know about aloe vera was that “it contains antimicrobial properties that kill bacteria.” With all of the cosmetics, and mascara that we use around our eye area, that benefit is a great preventative measure !

Another great ingredient in the Eye Gel is Hyaluronic Acid. It’s another “fave” ingredient of mine, and over the years I’ve used and liked it for it’s ability to keep moisture within the skin! Nurisha™ also makes note of Hyaluronic Acid’s “anti-aging qualities that also restores elasticity and firmness” to the skin!

Two other important ingredients in the Peptide Concentrate Eye Gel are “periwinkle and Licorice.” Together they “help reduce puffiness, those annoying dark circles, and diminish wrinkling around the eye area” which is crucial if you want to maintain a youthful appearance! (Price:$45.00)

I finished my routine with the “Jojoba and Vitamin E Moisturing Treatment”

The Moisturizing Facial Treatment is another example of Nurisha’s useful advantages for all skin types! The primary natural ingredients consist of jojoba which is non-comedogenic. Simply put, it will moisturize your skin without clogging your pores! Partnered with Vitamin E, that will not only keep your skin “ protected against the elelments, but also contains “anti-oxident properties” that will assist the skin to “retain it’s natural moisture content.”

Once again, Nurisha’s resourceful Moisturizing Facial Treatment will help control oily skin, “quench” dry skin, and with “naturally derived” ingredients it’s mild enough for sensitive skin! Quoting Nurisha,“Moisturizing Facial Treatment is great for all skin types, as it helps to restore balance to all major skin concerns.” (Price: $37.00)
