Easy Beauty the French Way

The lovely Audrey Tatou

Many French women focus on skincare, less on make-up. I focus on both! But I like to at least try to keep my skin in good condition so I can maybe skip a full face of make-up when I am really lazy. I lucked out in High School as far as clear skin, but then BAM! I had bad acne in my early 20's. My skin has bounced back, but it's far from perfect. That's ok, perfection is boring.

Here I am sans make-up.

A very French look is natural hair and a bold lip. A shot of red or pink. Something dramatic. I can't say enough about these Revlon Colorburst lipglosses! I have a bunch of them and I just picked up this red called Fire. It is so pigmented you can wear it over lipstick or on it's own.

Red hot! It's FIRE 

Amazing how a little red lipgloss makes you look instantly pulled together. Gotta love the French.
