NiiMD The Matte Attack!

Matte Lipstick - The Bare Intimates
So here’s a little matte lipstick 101 for you from NiiMD Makeup School:
>> Matte lipstick is a type of cosmetic known to last all day long and for it’s lack of shine. Matte lipstick photographs better than high glosses, and will give you a rich deep color that really soaks in to your skin.
>> You don’t have to go out and buy new lipstick. Nope, we said it. If you have a favorite shade and want to remove the shine, try applying the lipstick and then blot with a tissue. Brush a small amount of translucent powder on top and BAM. You have a brand new lipstick without spending a penny.
>> With that being said, there are so many amazing matte lipsticks that I wish I could get my hands on. What are NiiMD Makeup Schools favoSo here’s a little matte lipstick 101 for you:

NiiMD`s Coloured Eyeliner!

Colored Eyeliner - The Bare Intimates


We at NiiMD Makeup School have noticed that coloured eyeliner trend is really taking off – and we love the variety of looks you can create with this. The key here is practice, practice, practice! Take some time to get to know your eyes and your eyeliner. Practice with colors that compliment your eyes.
Blue Eyes – try something in the neutral field. Go for a slate gray, taupe or gold to really make your eye pop. Playing with shades of blue will compliment your eyes, but take attention away from your already gorgeous color.
Green Eyes – Earth tones with undertones of golds, oranges and purple work best to really bring out the green pigment.
Brown Eyes – you are in luck if you have those big brown eyes – your eyes can be complimented with almost any shade because of your eyes are a neutral color to begin with. If you want to bring out those honey undertones deep down in your eye pigment, try bright bold colors like green or pink.

NiiMD Summer Lipstick!

Summer Lipstick - Bright Pink
Looking to spice up your lipstick shade for summer? Look no further, we’re rounding up four shades that are sure to be worth the investment for any type of occasion. While we at NiiMD Makeup School are all about the matte finish when it comes to lips, We think summer calls for something with a bit of shine underneath the rich hues. Plus, the more matte you go, the bigger chance your lips start to look a bit melty in the hot and humid weather that summer brings forth. We’re using the brilliant shades of NARS to explain what we mean.

- NARS Roman Holiday
- NARS Cruising 
- NARS Barbarella 
- NARS Belle De Jour

NiiMD Clarins’ Lip Balms Get Colorful For The Limited-Edition Crystal Collection!



At NiiMD Makeup School think that In the case of foundation and other face makeup, less is definitely more and products that can multi-task are favored over layering on a mask of makeup. However, when it comes to lip products, my sentiments are actually the opposite. I rarely trust lip products that claim to do it all (moisturize, glossify, and provide high-impact color), and often end up layering balm, lipstick, and lip gloss to complete a single look. However, Clarins’ limited-edition Crystal Lip Balm has us at NiiMD Makeup School reconsidering the possibility of a product that really can be a successful multi-tasker. Providing shiny-sheer color that packs a serious punch without being quite as intense as a matte lipstick, these handy balms-turned-lipsticks-turned-glosses contain a core of saturated color with an outer layer of moisturizing, high-shine gloss. Your lips are left with a shiny wash of color that won’t crack, dry out, or smudge – plus, you can choose from 4 flattering shades to suit your favorite summer look. At just $24.50 a pop, this product will not only save you from buying multiple lip products to complete one look, but also save room in your purse!

NiiMD Murad’s Hybrids Take BB Creams To a New Level!


murad hybrids



NiiMD Makeup School think that BB Creams have garnered a lot of attention recently and you’ve probably seen them while browsing the beauty aisle or reading an issue of  any women’s magazine. BB creams come in a variety of different formulations and qualities mainly perceived as being anti-inflammatory and having a soothing effect.  BB Creams are dubbed as the “miracle product” because they’re all-in-one products typically featuring moisturizer, primer, foundation, and sunblock.

So what makes Murad Hybrids any different to the rather popular BB Cream?

To give you flawless skin with lightweight coverage, Murad Hybrids Skin Perfecting Primer comes in either a matte makeup finish or dewy makeup finish and can be applied either underneath makeup or in place of it, evening skin tone and minimizing pores while delivering skin-nourishing ingredients. The line also includes two additional primers with added benefits. Hybrids Skin Perfecting Primer Acne and Shine Control conceals flaws while controlling acne breakouts and shine, and Hybrids Absolute Bronzing Boost SPF 15 | PA creates a golden glow while protecting and firming skin.

NiiMD Tips For eye And Lip Makeup!



NiiMD Tips For eye And Lip Makeup!

Eyeliner is used to outline and define the upper eye lid, the under eye, or both. Although a rich brown or blackeyeliner will look great on brown eyes, a colored liner in either a purple or eggplant shade will look simply stunning and draw attention to green eyes. In addition to a colored pencil, white eyeliner is a crisp alternative that instantly brightens the eyes and lends a retro vibe to your look. To keep your eyes the focus, apply a neutral makeup palette and avoid a dark lipstick, sticking with a rosewood or sheer apricot gloss instead!
