Make Up Tips & Tricks

I enjoy video lessons and in particular, those made by Tricia Sawyer, a pro  make-up artist here in LA. Isn't she gorgeous! Click on her photo for lots of make-up lessons: 



I also work with many professional Makeup Artists and love the fun YouTube videos created by Celebrity MUA Kandee Johnson. She' got quite a large following and has promoted our products many times.  Kandee was also a guest speaker at our company "Leader's Conference in 2009". Be sure to visit Kandee's Blog

Cosmetic Brushes:
  I apply all my make-up with brushes and so do many professional make-up artists. SeneGence sells an outstanding Brush Set with an incredible value.

I've personally reviewed and used Laura Mercier's Master Brush set and it retails for $250 if ordered directly from her site. My brush set is absolutely comparable and comes with 8 premium quality brushes in a very nice, professional pouch with a zippered pocket to stow your makeup. It sells for $85, almost a third less. Email me for more info or to order! 

Here's another great video by Tricia on how to properly clean, disinfect and care for your brushes.

Forget the Pencil. If you want a smudged look like this or like Green Day, apply our water-proof creme-based Ebony Essence Shadow Sense with a lip brush. Once it's on, it's on all day.


 A more defined look like the one you see here on Dave Navarro or Brandon Flowers can be achieved by using our liquid eyeliner called EyeSense.  Choose Smoke Black or Charcoal grey. Both Products are 100% water-proof .

Use the diagram below for proper placement of  SeneGence Eye Luminator or Pearlizer. When applying any brightner or concealer, always remember to gently
"tap-tap" with your finger pad or "stipple" with a cosmetic sponge; do not wipe the delicate and thin skin around your eyes!
