Less is More.

We all know what makeup is AND more importantly, what it does for us. Could you imagine leaving your house in the morning without it? No way! At least we hope you take pride in yourself and respect how you present yourself to the outside world. There is a fine line because at times (usually if you don't know what you're doing) makeup can make some look worse. When that happens it is called wearing too much makeup. We don’t want to look fake, we want to look natural and beautiful. The CHAOS quote of the day is ‘less is more’, write it down, keep it natural and stick to the tones that match your skin color. First off, what every lady needs is a good foundation, one that matches your skin tone. So many people go wrong here and are mismatched, and that my friend, is the beginning to a gigantic problem. We love the flawless look so make sure you are wearing the right color, it should BLEND into your natural skin tone.

Make sure you pick a blush or bronzing balls that will show off your cheek bones. The color can only be a few shades darker than your foundation. Obviously, a great mascara is needed, eyes can be what makes your face stand out. It is important to know what your best feature is, if it is your eyes focus on your eyes and tone down the lips, draw attention to one facial feature at a time. If your lips are full and you posses the perfect pout, focus on that.  Makeup should only highlight your features, it isn't there to create them. So remember, look fresh faced, feel natural and remember less is more!

We're On Neutral Grounds


Simple, easy and perfect for every skin tone. Whether you pick shoes, accessories or clothes in a neutral shade it will work for you. Don't worry, you won't look plain and it's not like you have to wear everything neutral.

It's all about blending the right neutral colors with your skin tone, this is what gives that natural look. The trick is to add a splash of color somewhere, red lips or bright accessories. Basically just keep it plain and simple, yet still with a bit of something special, easy, for example, metallic bangles.

If the skin tone colors really aren't your thing then fear not, black is also considered to be a neutral color. The best thing about black is it goes with everything and girls, it makes you look slim.

Neutral is the color of sophistication, feel sophisticated, look glamorous and go natural.
