Does your lipstick change colors during the day after you wear it for a while?

If your skin's PH is highly alkaline, the alkalinity in your skin can react with the lipstick pigment & can cause  it to shift to a pink or orange color. There is no way to stop this from happening, BUT you can prevent a strong shift, just use an opposite color to minimize the color shift. For example, if you skin changes the lipstick to pink then you will want to use a shade that has a lot of warmth (orange/brown) in it, rather than becoming super pink it will become a more neutral color. If you shift everything orange, if you use a shade with a lot of pink in it, you shift it more neutral & less orange.  If you start with the complete opposite, it will not be able to shift all the way to the shade that you are trying to prevent. You can use lip liner or lipstick to prevent the color shift, or a layer the two. Shop online for all the MK colors.  www.marykay.com/lisajohnstone

Fashion Show

I went a fashion show last night with a friend of mine, we had a great time critiquing what we saw. Just so you know some of the hottest things are fur (fake or real), lace, bold & metallic colors. A jeweler said to save your gold it's coming back in fashion. My favorite model last night was 80 years old, & she looked wonderful. We all agreed that we hoped that we looked that good at her age! Let me know if your closet & look need a little tweak to stay current.
