TANtalizer: Award Show Glow

For mommy on the go, Tantalizer is a multi-purpose must that not only covers the blindingly white part of your arm fat, it also evens the skin tone on your legs and takes the place of hosiery.  I even applied some to my big ole’ baby belly before my maternity shots.  And the best part is that is didn’t leave a mark on my white shirt. At $32 a can, it’s a splurge, but I was pleasantly suprised by its longevity.

Still too rich for your check book? Try Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs.  I have tried it on my legs, but for $7 it only needs to do one thing well. And it does!

Make-Up-All You Need Is Color

Late nights and early mornings call for one thing from your makeup routine – color!

A flush on your cheeks hides a multitude of busy mommy-to-be sins.

The fastest way to achieve this is to start by applying your normal base layer – whether a tinted moisturizer or simply a dust of skin even-ing powder. Then swipe a sheer, nice quality bronzer (like Guerlain’s Terracota) in the backwards shape of a “3” from your temple down and just under your cheek bones and then down to your jawline.

This creates the illusion of definition and adds a dash of polish. Then dust a splash of a peachy pink blush on the apples of your cheeks. A great color is Benefit Dandelion.

Add some tinted gloss on your pucker, and you look like you just stepped off a cruise ship, not the late-pregnancy insomnia train.
