rmsbeautyblog — Tue, 21 May 2013 17:13:41 +0000

Grazia, the UK’s leading weekly publication, reviews the best dressed and best beauty moments from the Met Ball. The magazine then dives into the best style and beauty trends for summer, asking top celebrities about their sunny weather essentials.

Coconut has long been a favorite ingredient of juices and other gourmet treats, however, it now is a major player in the beauty world. Miranda Kerr, who has been a long-time fan of coconut oil and its health benefits, loves rms beauty products for their nourishing coconut oil base.

Of the entire line, the rms beauty raw coconut cream still remains a best-seller and an award-winning product. Composed solely of virgin, cold-pressed coconut oil that’s sourced form Thailand, this product works wonders in several ways. Use the lightly scented multi-tasker to remove makeup with ease, moisturize dry skin, cleanse the face and soothe frazzled hair.

Makeup How-To: Miranda Kerr’s Met Ball Look

rmsbeautyblog — Thu, 16 May 2013 12:20:24 +0000

The Met Ball may be over, but the craze that ensued following the punk party has continued. To appease those wanting to get the insider scoop on recreating supermodel Miranda Kerr‘s look from the evening, People magazine sat down with Rose-Marie and David Keough, her beauty team for the evening.

Despite the theme, Rose-Marie decided to soften it a bit and give her version of punk gone Hollywood. Since no one can pull off a lip better than Miranda Kerr, Rose-Marie decided to make the focus on the eye brow and the lips.

Her brows were slightly intensified with a soft brown powder shadow, combed to perfection and set in place with a little brow gel. This made her brows fuller but still remained sculpted and elegant. This was achieved using the rms beauty seduce cream eye shadow. Simply blend the creamy shadow into your brows, making sure they aren’t too dark. The subtle shimmer in this shadow will also add depth and light to your eyes.

Her skin remained luminous with a little application of the rms beauty ‘un’cover-up. Rose-Marie used #22 under the eyes and #33 for her face. Next, the ‘un’powder was used along the t-zone to set the makeup and soften the shine.
Lastly, she used the best-selling living luminizer over Miranda’s cheek bones but kept it very subtle.

A matte brown shadow was used over her lid for a bit of depth without looking smoky or overdone. Again, seduce was applied to keep it subtle yet elegant. Finish with mascara but do not make it too overstated.

Finally, Rose-Marie completed the look with one of the new rms beauty lipsticks, which are still in production (but coming soon!). You can also recreate this lip by blending two of our lip2cheek colors: illusive and rapture. The plum-hued illusive mixed with the brick-red rapture will deliver a dark yet glamorous lip.

Voila–a punk meets Hollywood look!

How-To: Punk Up Your Makeup the Gisele Way

rmsbeautyblog — Tue, 14 May 2013 16:25:05 +0000

This year’s Met Ball theme was focused on the evolution of punk-rock. From “Chaos to Couture”, punk fashion has made quite the transition into today’s trends. While wearing studded pumps or edgy jewelry is an easy way to incorporate the theme into everyday wear, it’s the makeup and hair that can make this look tricker to tackle.

Rose-Marie did a few supermodels’ makeup this year, including Gisele Bundchen, who is both a client and close friend. To keep the look edgy without being overdone or even scary, Rose-Marie made sure the Brazilian looked both punk and chic when she hit the red carpet.

Get started by applying a moisturizing foundation that won’t make your skin appear dry or powdery. Glowing skin is key for an accessible, modern punk look. For Gisele, the rms beauty “un”cover-up in #33 is the perfect color. Be sure to match your skin tone to a concealer or foundation that works for you personally.

Contour and shape the face to sculpt strong angles. Rose-Marie was going for a strong look but not too heavy–the secret is blending everything perfectly to avoid a harsh look. Try contouring with the “un”cover-up in #44 as it isn’t orange or red based and will look natural and real.

For a raw, smoky eye, try using a cream shadow versus a powder one to get slight creasing that will create that slept-in look, which is both sensuous and alluring without looking cheap. To do so, Rose-Marie used the karma cream eye shadow. It isn’t as harsh as a straight black color because karma has just a hint of dark brown with a slight cast of silver, creating more dimension and depth to the look.

Develop the smoky eye by blending it in an oval shape at the ends rather than pointed or cat-like. Do not let the shadow get too high towards the brow bone (more like a sideways oval) or go too black because that can lean toward the rock and roll direction.

Next, apply lots of black mascara (rms beauty living lashes mascara coming fall 2013) in almost a clumpy manner so it doesn’t look too polished–keep it smudgy and on-trend for the punk look.

Add glow to your skin by reflecting light with the living luminizer or try applying a little beauty oil to the cheekbones to get that dewey finish. Do not go in a frosted highlighter direction or it gets too glam for what you’re wanting.

Powder only in the t-zone, and be sure to keep it subtle. The “un”powder works fantastic for this purpose. If the face is too heavily powdered, then you will lose the effect of what you are trying to achieve and instead the makeup will appear heavy and flat.

To modernize the look, keep the lips more natural (for Gisele, Rose-Marie used the moment lip shine) by using a neutral lip color or even just using the lip & skin balm. If you choose to go more extreme, use a dark, rich red-burgundy shade. The illusive and rapture lip2cheeks are a perfect combination for this color. Again, avoid a classic red shade as this will veer more towards glam.

Comb the eye brows up for drama with a little brow gel or hair spray. For more drama, darken the eye brow slightly using a soft brown powder shadow. The seduce cream shadow also works great for this if you have darker brows.

Remember, it is all about the skin…Raw, beautiful, moisturized skin and that dark, smoky eye create a perfect modern-day punk look!

W Magazine: Eco-Fabulous Indulgences

rmsbeautyblog — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 15:33:43 +0000

Take a tour into Tilda Swinton‘s fashion fantasy in the May issue of W Magazine. Aside from her beautiful editorial and images of couture jewels, this issue tackles tough beauty topics regarding sunscreen, Botox and the toxins lurking in your everyday cosmetics.

Though we often think cosmetic companies would never include an ingredient that could potentially be harmful, it’s actually quite the opposite if you take the time to read that lengthy ingredient deck.

With hard-to-decipher words that only a chemist could understand, your everyday skincare and makeup products could be harboring endocrine disruptorsand more. That being said, however, you can make the transition to green easier than you make think.

Today’s brands are not only clean but also luxurious, providing you with products that rival their conventional counterparts. Amely Greeven suggests slowly trading your favorites such as ditching a sulfate-ridden shampoo for a natural version (and beware of greenwashers!) like Rahua.

Other organic favorites of W include rms beauty, which includes unique colors and products formulated by a professional makeup artist, Rose-Marie Swift, who has a depth of knowledge in this field. Their favorite of the line? Our living luminizer, a highlighter that is neither glittery or sticky. Filled with yummy ingredients like coconut oil and beeswax, this pot of shimmer will leave skin looking fresh and dewey–without harsh chemicals.

Going green has never been easier!
