They don't just protect you from the sun's damaging rays..
No time for makeup? No problem 
Wanna look famous? Done.

Pick the right shades for your face shape





Alicia Keys-
Strong Jawline with Dramatic Detailed Frames
A dramatic detailed frame will take the
attention away from a strong jawline.

Eva Mendes-
Oval Face with Square Frames

Square and rectangular frames look good on oval,
oblong, diamond and round face shapes.








Victoria Beckham-
Heart Face - Bold frames
 
Heart shaped faces are wider and can get lost in small frames. 
Go for bold!



 To avoid being outdated, try changing styles
every two years or less.

Katie revealed her new look in Germany at the 2007 Bambi Awards. Her husband was getting an award for courage but all eyes were on Katie.

Strong bangs are a great way to frame your eyes. Not sure if bangs are right for you? Let me help you decide!

PROS:

• Bangs hide expression lines/wrinkles on your forehead.
• They shorten a face that looks too long or drawn out.
• Bangs draw attention to your eyes with a dramatic blunt cut.
• They are very youthful looking.
  

CONS:

• If you have a very round face, a strong bang like Katie’s choice won’t be best for you because it will make it look rounder. Opt for a side swept softer bang.
• If you face is short in length, bangs will make it look shorter.
• If you have a very young looking face and you hate being carded- skip the bangs. They’ll make you look younger.

Tired of your eyeliner fading before lunch? Not sure how to pick the perfect foundation? Wondering what shade of red lipstick works best for you?

Wonder no more because Debra Macki, Boston’s most sought-after professional makeup artist offers her time-tested tips and tricks to help you conquer you’re biggest beauty blunders.  Send her a message on my945 to get your advice, click here:

Dear Debra: It never fails. I apply eyeliner under and above my lashes, and follow-up with a coat of mascara. Yet, by lunchtime, my eyeliner has headed south. What can I do to make it last all day? Signed, Faded But Not Forgotten.
Dear Faded: Use a concealer and powder as a base around your eye area. This will help make your eye shadow last longer as well.

Dear Debra: I love the look of red lipstick, but I’m terrified of wearing it. Any advice? Signed, Wimpie.
Dear Wimpie: Red can be intimidating - if you don’t know how to pick the right shade. I suggest sheer red lipgloss for beginners.

Dear Debra: I’m hopeless when it comes to picking a foundation that works with my skin tones. How can I find the right shade? I’ve heard you should test it on your wrist. Signed, Hopeless.
Dear Hopeless: Always test your foundation/concealer/powder on your face. Most of the time your wrist is a completely different color than your face. So unless you’re planning on wearing foundation down there, test it on your jaw line.

Dear Debra: How can I hide a pimple so no one will know it’s there except me? Signed, Sweet 13.
Dear Sweet 13: When concealing a pimple, make sure the concealer matches your skin so you aren’t drawing attention to the problem area - which defeats the whole purpose. Set the concealer with a powder for the best coverage and staying power.
