Trend That Sticks: Stick-ons & Temporary Tattoos For Your Eyes & Lips

Trend Spotting:Temporary tattoos for your eyes and lips


You've seen the explosion of this trend in the past 2 years for nails...stickers, and decals that come in a variety of prints, colors, and textures that adhere directly to the nail, eliminating the need for a pricey, and complicated manicure. 




This year the trend has crossed over to the face...

Would you wear temporary eyelid tattoos?

These would be fun for halloween or any day you're feeling a little theatrical!
Check out these $10 animal print eyeshadow tattoos, available at Walmart

 Dior, Velvet Eyes Backstage Eyeliners-To-Wear Multi-Wear Adhesive Eyeliner Patches. This is a set of innovative eyeliner ‘patches’ that are ready to wear in minutes. Designed by Dior makeup artists, the results of these velvet eyeliner appliqués are spectacular, easily adjustable, and they're reusable!


Violent Lips Temporary Lip Tattoos:


I am loving these lip tattoos by Violent Lips (a company started by a 12 yr old girl who thought it would be fun to have lip tattoos, told her dad and they started Violent lips) I first saw these on Kandee J's blog when she did a Fourth of July makeup look using the american flag Violent Lips


They come in so many different colors and prints..Even Kim and Khloe Kardashian have been seen sporting em!



I love the "lip word tattoos" too! fun and playful way to send a message (the "single" tattoos are hilarious!)


There is no glitter lipgloss in the world that can touch the bling of the Glitterati lip tattoos! They are amazing and my fave!



These would be perfect to glam up your New Year's Eve!

You can see all their amazing designs at www.violentlips.com

Would you try any of these novelty beauty trends? There is no substitute for a great make-up application but these products make style short-cuts so fun and easy to use that I may have to stray from my beauty routine now and then to play with them. 

These are also a great way to re-connect with your inner child and remind yourself that life (and yes even style/beauty) doesn't have to be so serious all the time. Style can have a sense of humor...

So play, have fun and remember...you can never have too much glitter!!

How to put together the perfect outfit for any holiday party!

 Say Yes To The Sweater Dress!


Putting the perfect ensemble together for a holiday party can be challenging...but never fear-the ever trusty sweater dress is here to lift you out of your xmas slump.

Versatile and oh so cozy...there are so many styles to choose from and even more ways to wear them!


The sweater dress is comfortable and chic and can be dressed up in several ways to be your perfect holiday party dress!

Try a sequined style that sparkles for a little pop of glamour, pair with mega lashes and a shiny pout....


Try a classic holiday red style with nude pumps, pearls, and gold accessories...



Keep it sexy and sassy with an off the shoulder version paired with lace tights, and a smokey eye...



Keep it simple and sweet in a creme colored version paired with romantic accessories like chandelier earrings or a statement necklace, booties, and a clutch...




Wear it edgy with high dark boots, tousled locks, and a red lip....




Or make a simple black sweater dress playful by pairing it with an unexpected pop of color or glitzy, sparkly shoes....



No mater what style you choose or how you dress it up, the sweater dress is a holiday must-have for any bombshell beauty. Elegant with ease this basic fashion staple flatters almost every figure and is sure to make you the belle of the ball at any christmas party you attend.

There is one thing that should always accompany a sweater dress, especially at the holidays and that is a perfectly polished mani!


Here's to having fun with fashion-christmas style and to feeling beauty-full inside and out....
Happy Holidays Bombshells!!
