Prime Time

Everyone has a makeup must have that they cannot go without right? Well, maybe a few, but is a makeup PRIMER one of those? I hope so, here's why... 
Our makeup looks only as good as our skin underneath it all. Like an artist needs a smooth canvas to paint, same holds true with cosmetics. Taking care of our skin is first and foremost. If our skin is healthy and we are protecting it properly that means that on the inside we are pretty healthy too because the skin can act like a mirror of what goes on internally. So, once you have chosen a customized routine for your skin type (we recommend consulting with an Esthetician) then you are on the right path! 
I know that most of us do not want to add a step to our mornings of makeup, or to our bags but using a primer will help the rest of our complexion products perform so well that you will wonder what you did without one. 
So let's talk  Primers shall we?
Makeup Primers are just what they sound like, they prime the skin for your foundation or the rest of your makeup to follow. There are many types of primers, for the face, eyes and even lips. They can help to hydrate the skin, fill in fine lines and create a velvety smooth texture for makeup to glide on and look effortless. Most primers are oil free so there is no worry of heaviness on the skin if that is a concern for you. There are also options for a matte effect on the skin and even color correcting primers that can help to disguise redness, discoloration, dark circles under the eyes, uneven skin tone, and hyper-pigmentation (or sun damage) many of these color correcting primers will be in different shades.
 A primer is an instant gratification product. So it delivers results right away. Primers can be worn alone or under makeup. Apply your primer before your foundation/concealer or any complexion cosmetic even tinted moisturizers if you so desire. Primers for eyes and lips can also be different colors, some being nude or even some having a sheen to them that can work as a base color for eye shadows or lip color, also primers tend to intensify the pigment in the products you apply to them as well. Eye shadow primer will help to keep the shadow in place all day long without smudging or creasing, and lip primers will prevent your lip shades from feathering too. Either way or whatever formula that works with your skin,  a primer is always essential in any makeup routine and among makeup lovers alike!

Tinted Love



We love TINTED MOISTURIZERS and we love that they are an IT product this year! How do you feel about them? 
Tinted moisturizers seem to be getting the recognition they should now a days! Here is a little bit more info if you are still undecided...

Tinted moisturizer is a combo of moisturizer and foundation. Basically.
Moisture: What a great match up because some of our foundations can be everything BUT moisturizing leaving skin still thirsting for moisture which in turns can create a not so fabulous look on the skin. In order for makeup to go on smoothly and look flawless the skin must be properly moisturized and cared for as it is the canvas for the rest of the picture.
SPF: More than half of tinted moisturizers produced today have Sun Protection Factor in them. (SPF)
Coverage: Coverage is lighter. Makeup is not intended to look cakey and unnatural. Tinted moisturizers give you some coverage, but less than a foundation and usually come in several shades that gives a hint of color  for various skin tones. A barely there feel and super for day to day makeup!

Wrap Up: Always have a tinted moisturizer on hand. It is a clever little thing to have in your makeup bag at all times as it can cut the time you spend on makeup in half some days by doing the jobs of several products. Gives moisture, light coverage with a dab of color and SPF! So easy! Now grab some blush or a bronzer, sweep those lashes with mascara and some gloss and you are set~ Haven't tried one yet? Check these leading ladies out with top notch ingredients so the benefits are increased....

The Balm~ Balm Shelter SPF 18
Girlactik~ Skin Tint
Tarte~ Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
Bloom~ Mineral Plus Sheer Mineral Tint SPF18


All Available at yours truly,

Flower Power



What does makeup mean to you? 

Memories~ When you think of makeup it may bring back wonderful memories of your mother or in the case of our boutique in particular a grandmother like Eleanor Jean. The beauty of playing dress up as a little girl and dreaming of being that strong, beautifully groomed woman like those we looked up to at a young age. 
Moments~ Maybe a moment in time like a wedding or a first date, or a great night out with your friends.
Inspiration~ Magazines, Movies, Celebrities inspiring new looks to try out
Self Confidence~ The most important feeling. Feeling beautiful and creating that look that enhances your inner beauty and keeps you walking tall.

But a benefit that may not come to mind, Healing~
The Eleanor Jean Boutique has added a special, organic cosmetic line. Put an international celebrity makeup artist and the powerful healing properties of Australian Flowers and you have Lucy B! Blending Australian Bush Flower Essences ( Lucy B. is the only to use this flower in cosmetics) and pure aroma-therapeutic extracts in every product. The use of organic essential oils and flower essence is known to help the mind, body and overall healing and balance of the body. Lucy B. has heart and soul and a passion for passing that along through all of their products.  So once again Eleanor Jean has found yet another treasure to spoil you.



Try: Tinted Lip Balm, Fresh Juice Lip Gloss, Mineral Eye Silk, Cheeky Rouge Blush and more...

PEOPLE magazine voted Jennifer Lopez 2011 most beautiful woman in the WORLD! What makes her so beautiful is not just her outter good looks. she is confident, strong, a believer and a do gooder. All of these traits make any woman beautiful inside and out. Congratulations Jennifer!
The most important part about JLo's radiant look that everyone emulates, better known as the JLO "GlOW" is skin care. She  takes care of her skin first and foremost. This is the canvas for all other products. So start getting those facials, and drinking lots of water! In celebration of JLO's beauty,we have put together some choices from GIRLACTIK to achieve a look similar to the American Idol sweetheart. The look is simple, can be worn daily or played up a little bit more with more shimmer and lashes for an evening look. 
The palette is great for the summer. Bronzy, peachy, with a hint of gold. Girlactik is a great line to use when creating  this look because of their love of highlights, shimmers and sparkles. Their glosses? To die for! Since we cannot have Scott Barnes,( JLo's makeup artist) in our bathrooms every morning, here are a few suggestions when shopping: 




Moisturize moisturize! JLo carries it in her purse!

 Skin Savers:
Girlactik Skin Tint Moisturizer is heavenly and can be worn alone for a easy, natural look this is great for the beach!
Face Glimmer in 14k or Pink Diamond
Coral Cream Blush on highest part of cheek bone
Bronzer in Cabo lightly on cheeks,chin and forhead

Eyes: 
Pearl Base all over lid up to brow bone (this also can be used as a highlighter and will prevent shadow from creasing.)
Golda shadow and Mariposa
The Black Liner smudged
Star Lash Mascara
Try the famous sparkle shadows for intense glam

Lips:
Just Nude or Just Sexy

Additional Tips:
To really enhance your JLO inspired look try LASHdip, or Lash Extensions Jennifer 
Lopez never leaves without her lash enhancements. Schedule an airbrush tan for an all over body glow.

Want the look? Pick up these products and the tools to create it on your own @ Eleanor Jean Haute Beauty. OR  Schedule an Appointment and we can create our spin on the look for you! Now you are sure to be looking beautiful. Use that inner beauty for the good and with that kind of confidence you can quite possibly take over the world~ 

XOXO ELEANOR JEAN
