BOXING DAY BLUES

Yesterday was a very busy day for me,had to travel out of town to do a bridal makeover because the bride wouldn't have anyone else do it for he.I had to leave home very early cos it was about a 3 hour journey but i still got there right on time to make her up for her special day(pictures when you continue). At McCoy Makeovers,we know that feeling about ourselves as women boosts our self confidence and portrays a good image to others.We believe that makeup makes all the difference between looking good and feeling absolutely great.Do have a great year ahead,cheers.

Merry Christmas!!!

Wanna wish all readers of this blog a very merry xmas and a prosperous and fruitful new year.And this also goes out to the people that lost their lives on xmas day as a result of the bombings.May their soul rest in peace.

How to treat combination skin

Although treating combination skin can be a little tricky, it’s entirely doable if you remember what the overall goal is, but first…

Do you understand what your pore size is telling you about your skin type?

The larger the pore, the more sebaceous glands you have which secretes oil to soften and protect your skin. And when your glands secrete too much oil, you have ‘oily’ skin.

When your pores are barely visible, you have dry skin which means it’s in desperate need of lubrication.

But when you have both skin types (oily forehead, nose and chin; dry & flaky outer areas) you are considered to have combination skin.

The goal of treating combination skin is to keep the oil and water levels in both skin types balanced. In other words, your ’T-Zone’ should never be overly-lubricated and your dry skin should feel hydrated and not uncomfortably tight.

Start off your skin care regimen with a cleanser that hydrates…
