There were two big lip-color trends at the shows: daring red-pink (cue Best Actress nominees Sandra Bullock and Vera Farmiga) and ever-so-soft, glossy mauve (see Rachel McAdams and Anna Kendrick). Each tone makes a huge difference in its own beautiful way.
I’d copy them with either of these:
Motives Rich Formula Lipstick in Hot Summer Nights $14
Motives Full Color Lip Shine in Tease $16.95
Which one would you use first?

Today has been a fabulous day — not only am I getting ready to receive an award at fashion Miami, but a few of my friends just emailed me this great post from Beautysnob.com.
It turned out to be especially helpful — considering it’s about Motives® by Loren Ridinger Lustrafy High Definition Mascara (which I’m planning to wear tonight)!

Karen Elson is one of my favorite models. Off duty, she runs an amazing vintage shop called Venus and Mars: The Showroom in Nashville, where she lives with her husband Jack White of the White Stripes and is currently recording her first album.
So to say that Karen Elson is cool is an understatement. And her boundary-pushing personality plays a huge part in her beauty picks as well. Here, she manages to pull off two seemingly at odds shades—pale orange eyeshadow and pinkish-red lips—and makes it look simple. The feel is certainly quirky, but as long as you go easy on the mascara and blush the end result has a pretty, I-make-my-own-rules vibe.
Try these two products to get the look at home:
Motives Pressed Eye Shadow in Taboo, $12
Motives Rich Formula Lipstick in Tomato Red, $14

On Saturday night, I attended the 42nd Annual Miami Heart and Stroke Ball that was hosted by the American Heart Association – which you all know is very important to me and that I support the AHA with Motives® Go Red Rich Formula Lipstick. It was an absolute honor to be the recipient of the Big Heart – Go Red For Women Award that night! You can read more about the event on Miami Beats and Sazon, a blog written by the lovely Susset Cabrera. Also, here are some pictures of mine from the evening:

For those of you that saw the before and after photos at World Conference, I’m sure you are a true believer in what MATRISKIN™ can do for you. JR and I are absolutely in love with the dramatic changes we have seen in our skin, so I want to share some extra info with you all so that you get the most out of the product (and your money).
Here are the directions you should follow when using MATRISKIN™:
- MATRISKIN™ Collagen MP Serum can be used both in the daytime and at night time.
- It should be used AFTER cleansing and toning your skin but BEFORE putting on moisturizer
- Apply half a pipette on the face, neck and eyes and gently massage into your skin. Around the eye area, where skin is more delicate, dab the serum on gently ensuring complete penetration

MATRISKIN™ Collagen MP Serum truly is a revolutionary anti-aging serum that will visibly reduce the look of lines and wrinkles. Matriskin™ did a study on 600 different people before bringing this product to Market America and here are the exciting overall results:
- Dramatic improvement to skin texture and firmness
- Improvement seen across all ages from 20 years old to 80
- Glow and skin hydration seen in all cases
You will see a difference almost overnight in the firmness, texture and luminosity of your skin. And the best part, this is the first time MATRISKIN™ Collagen MP Serum has been sold in the United States!
For those of you that already use MATRISKIN™, or plan on ordering the product in the future, please feel free to email me at loren@myfashioncents with your opinions/comment/before and after photos! It would make me very happy to see the fantastic MATRISKIN™ results on my favorite people J

I took a look at Bethany’s YouTube channel, Macbarbie07, and completely fell in love! This was definitely something I would have done at her age – so unique and and cutting edge. Bethany’s latest segment is on Motives, which I thought was important to share with you all because it’s from a young woman’s point of view. She also physically compares our products to other brands so you can actually see that Motives has the same (if not better) quality and pigment. Take a look:
This video is such an inspiration for other teens who want to experiment with makeup… or if they want to try Motives & Me!
Lots of love,
Loren
A decade since her last album, Sade’s Soldier of Love is No. 1 on the charts. The singer hasn’t aged a day, and neither has her iconic style. And I love how her signature red lipstick/wrapped ponytail/skinny-gold-hoop earrings look works for day or night.
