Beauty Tip Today's 2015 Summer Beauty Buy

You can toss this one in your 2015 summer beauty bag, ladies!

Here at Beauty Tip Today, we like to see makeup + skin care products that give you lots of bang-for-you-buck. So here it is:

L'Oreal Paris Colour Eiche La Palette Nude 1

Hey, you CAN'T go wrong with a neutral palette. NEVER!

You get 10 classic soft eyeshadow shades to play around with. Plus, this palette would be flattering on all skin tones + eye colors. These shadows glide on like butter and blend together perfectly.

We found this good beauty buy at ULTA for $19.99.

Hey, this is GREAT for summer---1st day today! It's practically goof-proof. The colors are lovely + natural-looking. Nothing garish here.

We give this La Palette Nude the green light!

L'Oreal Paris' Telescopic + Voluminous Mascaras Together Can Mimic One DiorShow Mascara

Okay, so maybe our headline here is a bit confusing, but let us explain......

Mascara is our friend, our FAVE beauty item. And let's be honest...a high-end mascara like the iconic DiorShow Mascara is REALLY superb stuff.

But it isn't cheap at $27.50 a tube. So we don't use it too often.

However, our friend Nina just gifted us with some DiorShow, and we were quickly reminded how AMAZING this cult fave formula is.

DiorShow mascara gives your lashes  BOTH length + volume. You CAN see your fringe grow before your eyes!

And now for the clever DUPE.....Two L'Oreal Paris mascaras can equal the quality of one DiorShow mascara:

L'Oreal's Telescopic mascara ($10.59) for the LENGTH

.....and L'Oreal's Voluminous mascara ($7.59) for the VOLUME
.

Sounds silly/stupid. But if you apply both L'Oreal mascaras, you can COPY the more expensive DiorShow.

Telescopic is NOT a thickening formula but gives super length to lashes. And Voluminous gives you the necessary fullness.

So, just a little beauty experimentation on our part.

Hey, it's only makeup. Have some FUN!

Ravishing Ruby Rose: Uses Cheap Skin Care Products

Orange is the New Black star Ruby Rose is not ashamed to admit that she uses cheap skin care products for cleansing + moisturizing.
.
Ruby is stunning and her complexion looks smooth + radiant to us, so the brunette Australian beauty must be doing something right.

We don't care if she completely shaves her entire head, she is STILL gorgeous with her most unique androgynous style.

So here are 2 quick beauty tips from Ruby Rose as told to Beauticate.

1.)  Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water ($16.24, free shipping)
.
2.)  Cetaphil Moisturizer ($12.39).

Ruby explains: "When you're wearing full make-up for hours, you'll start to break out from just not having that freshness on your face. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water gets rid of all the make-up. I moisturise with a light Cetaphil, which is like the cheapest, most simple product in the world, you can get it everywhere. I love Cetaphil."

Plus, Ruby said she washes her face, a lot---"I wash my face three times a day, if I can. That's my one important thing. I'll do hair and make-up and then if I've got a break between the next fashion show I'll wash it all off, do a quick mask and then put make-up on again, just to let my skin breath."

Nina Dobrev Goes For Big Hair + Loose Curls At The Final Girls Premiere

Lovin' this look. If you're into BIG hair + lotsa volume, then Nina Dobrev takes the cake!

The gorgeous actress wowed on the red carpet recently at the premiere of her new movie,  The
 Final Girls in L.A..

Take a look at Nina's hair. We think she's pretty flawless here with a sexy, glam side-part.

To COPY Nina's do, you will need a one-inch curling iron. That's an essential to create those loose curls all over the head.

You will also NEED a root boost spray to maximize the fullness + thickness.

Try this one:

OGX Biotin & Collagen Root Boost Spray, 6 fl oz ($5.74, Walmart).

This root booster is gentle + good for your locks, formulated with hydrolized wheat proteins.

Hey, girls--- Go big or go home!

Thank You So Much, Tyra: A True No Makeup Selfie

We've all seen some great-looking stars showing us how brave they are, taking no makeup selfies + posting them on Instagram.

The only thing with that, we would venture that MOST of these au naturale photos are NOT 100% makeup free, plus many have been photoshopped to blur hard edges, or used special lighting to make their naked face selfies super awesome.

We have been waiting for the REAL deal, and model Tyra Banks has stepped up to the beauty plate.

So for that....we say THANK YOU, Tyra!

Here's the 41-year-old, gorgeous model wearing ZERO makeup and with ZERO special photo effects

Wow....We are pretty blown away.

Yup....Tyra, you look  NORMAL, like a real chick with common beauty imperfections----- dark undereye circles, uneven skintone and not the longest eyelashes.

We LOVE you, Tyra. There is so-oooooo much emphasis on women feeling pressured to appear flawless or perfect. And you have shown us that even extremely attractive women get help with proper makeup, hair + fashion.

This is what TYRA wrote on her Instagram:

You know how people say #no filter but you know there's a freakin' filter on their pic? Or maybe there's a smidge of retouching going on but they're lying and saying it's all raw & real?

'Well, this morn, I decided to give you a taste of the really real me. I wanted to smooth out my dark circles so badly!!! But I was like, "Naw, Ty. Show 'em the REAL you." 

'So...here I am. Raw. And there YOU are...looking at me, studying this picture. Maybe you're thinking, "Whoa, she looks ROUGH." And if you are, great! You deserve to see THE real me. The really real me. #RawAndReal'  

Please Remove ALL Makeup Before Bedtime, Ladies!

We have repeated this + repeated this many times before:

"Please remove ALL makeup before bedtime, ladies."

Your face + neck should be clean + spotless so your pores can breathe and the repair to cells can begin as you sleep.

Plus, adding nightime serums + creams react more effectively when skin is super clean.

Not only that, but you CAN damage skin + lashes with old dirty, greasy makeup or clumpy, dry mascara.

And we offer proof.

Lately, we have noticed that it takes tons of mascara coats to get full, sexy lashes, so we stupidly began sleeping with a clean, clear complexion, EXCEPT for our mascara.

We left the lashes overnight, so that by morning, we could apply MORE fresh coats of mascara on TOP of the old mascara for BETTER grip + fullness.

Sometimes it worked, but not always. And we noticed now that we have a tiny space MISSING a few upper lashes.

That has NEVER happened before. So now we must practice what we preach.

Take it ALL off!

A makep pro once taught us to REMOVE makeup at night with Pampers Baby Wipes ($2.37 at Walmart). Yes...for real.

Works great, too.

24-Hour Instant Boob Job: Would You Pay Big Bucks To Try Cinderella Breasts On?!

It's no secret that we are a culture obsessed with boobs. So much so, that the numbers don't lie:

The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that 313,327 breast augmentations were performed in 2013.

The  average cost for breast implants...about $6,000. Okay, that's not cheap. But consider this growing, HOT trend for all the rich gals out there:

The 24-hour boob job.

It's REAL and women are trying this out for FUN and to see what it's like to have PERFECT breasts for an entire day.

It's a simple, non-invasive procedure, involving saline injections to PLUMP UP the breasts like a surgical implant.

The pricetag is around $3,500. Wow.

Why not just get the more permanent solution? Well, this appears to be quick + easy with zero long-term possibility of health problems, multiple, future surgeries and so on.

Even the NYTimes did a piece on the 24-hour boob job last August, titling their post, What a Difference a Day Makes... LOL

And yes, the ultra-rich ladies are getting the instant boob job for party events like weddings, beach vacations, bar mitzvahs, etc.

Are we that shallow of a society to spend thousands to look flawless for one event?!

Yes. The world has become a crazy place.

But we must admit.....If money were no object and you could experience the perfect boobs for 1-day, wouldn't you?
