THANKSGIVING DINNER OUTFITS

If you can already smell the turkey, apple pie, and cranberry sauce, it is Party Season! The question of the month is what do I wear for Thanksgiving Dinner Party or should I just enjoy my dinner plate in bed?

Here are a few fashion choices I consider this year.

The classic sweater, jeans, and booties

This perfectly summarises: stylish yet comfortable, to be prepared for all of the running around and Turkey Dinner craziness.

A fall dress with boots

That is a great option if you all planning to enjoy all of the dinner goodies. The dress will allow you to breathe and move after the last bite you take.

Oversized Collard Shirt

Vintage is so in trend right now and I love it! You can pair this feminine shirt with a pair of darker color jeans.

Sweater Vest

Another great Thanksgiving outfit idea! Vests have been popular for a while now and it is super easy to style with a button-up or a turtleneck.

Plaid Blazer

Keeping it classy! The gorgeous statement as a Plaid Balzer is something elegant yet chic and approachable.

So what is it going to be? A family dinner, a party with friends or a stay at home kind of day?

Fall Trends.

Bye Spooky mood, we are ready for new makeup trends!


While we will always enjoy the timeless neutral palette and the natural beauty look, consider breaking from your usual routine and dive into bright tones! Everyone can find something that illustrates their personality. Ranging from delicate and feminine tones to eye-catching bright and bold hues!

Smokey Eyes! Smokey eyes are always in style, as they really should be! Smoked-out eyes are sexy, sensual and goes perfectly with with simple nude gloss.


Blush Party! Forget about barely visible contouring and try creamy, rich blush. This year, pink cheeks and temples are really popular. Some people even use lipsticks to achieve the desired smooth and silky appearance.

Metallic Eyeshadow! It is a remarkably simple way to add a touch of sparkle and shine to your look. By the way, celebrities love this look this season!

Fall is one of our favorite seasons, and we hope you enjoy trying out these cute fall cosmetics ideas that we intend to use for ourselves.

Halloween Makeup!

It is almost Halloween so it is time to get ready! Most people think costumes and candy but we think MAKEUP! A great Halloween costume is not complete without makeup. Thankfully, it is easier than you think.

Halloween is the rare occasion when people won't bat an eye if you wear strange, extravagant makeup. It is the only time of year that you can use anything and anything, wild contact lenses, glitter, and fake blood. Seriously, everything works when we talk about Halloween makeup. Remember that bright red lipstick in your collection that you never had a chance to wear, well that might be just the right time to try something bold!

The most important tip is: make sure to stick to the long-wear makeup, nothing is more terrifying than make-up that does not last all night.

A good idea is to use an inspirational photo. Using one is helpful, as well as a trial run beforehand. It always turns out better the second time around. Professional stylists and makeup artists can help you be the star of the Halloween party this year.

Do you know what you are going to be this Halloween? If you need help bringing your costume to life, let our make-up team at Primp help you.

Destress Employees with these Affordable & Great Event Benefits

Numerous studies show that job stress is far and away the major source of stress for American adults.

Employee Wellness Events can help alleviate stress in the workspace.

  • We all need a break! During a demanding workweek, a 10-minute break to unwind and recharge can seem impossible, especially when you need it most. It is simple to access physical, mental, and emotional wellness right at your office with corporate chair massages.

  • Create an amazing atmosphere. Employees spend a lot of time with their co-workers. The more they enjoy it, the happier the workplace will be. A Wellness Event could be a great opportunity and atmosphere for employees to come together and a great productivity booster for the entire office.

  • There is always something for everyone! Everyone can be pampered with different services, including Chair Massages, Mini-Facials, Manicures, Pedicures as well as Hair Styling and Make-Up demonstrations. Even a 5-minute hand massage works wonders.

  • Event packages can reduce your overall expenses.

PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE MAKEUP

I really do love Fall, especially in New York City. There are so many seasonal events, hidden parks, and unique experiences you can only enjoy for a few months each year. I love sweater weather, scarves, comfort food, leather boots, and coffee in my favorite mug. But I need to confess, there is one thing I have trouble getting excited about. It is Pumpkin Spice Lattes. The warm cozy Fall in a cup just does not do it for me.

But in my makeup!? That’s a different story. I love Pumpkin Spice makeup — the famous mix of spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice.

First prep your skin with your favorite moisturizer ( recommend SPF) and let's dive in!

  • Start with priming your lids to help eye makeup go on smoother and last longer. Use a fluffy brush and a light shade as a transition into the crease.

  • Apply a slightly darker shade into the crease using a blending brush

( use a fluffy blending brush after each step to make sure everything is seamless)

  • Then apply a dark shade ( deep orange or brown) to the outer corner of the eyelid. Blend and build it up until it's as vibrant as you want it to be.

  • With the wet/dry eye brush apply shimmer eyeshadow to the center and inner third of the lids, taking it close to the inner corners. You want to make sure to blend everything in the outer corner for a smooth transition.

  • Using the crease and blend brush, apply darker shade eyeshadow across the lower lash line. Blend out using windshield-wiping motions all the way across.

  • Time for a liner! Apply dark brown or black eyeliner pencil to the lash line, then use a brush to smooth it out after applying and wing it out a bit.

  • Add your favorite mascara and a quick brush to your eyebrows

  • Enjoy your smokin-hot Pumpkin Spice Latte Makeup look!

Fall Nail Care

One of the best ways to express your love for the fall is to dive into the array of Autumn​​ nail polish colors. Orange, green or brown can shine differently when you go with fun trendy nail polish. The leaves on the trees are changing and here we come with deep teal, forest green, gothic white, dusty red, or milk chocolate! I also like to make sure my nails are a part of my new fall beauty routine.​​ Just like our skin is affected by colder weather, so are our nails. Thick lotion or oils is my go-to, to save my nails from getting brittle or breaking.​​

As much as I love to experiment with fun nail colors in the fall, I always let my nails breathe and recover from my obsession with nail polish. Just a few days of rest can do the trick and do not forget to moisturize the nails during these breaks.

Considering all the changes from the outside (temperature and humidity level) we might want to give ourselves some help from within. There are so many good foods full of calcium, iron, and antioxidants for nail strength and growth. Make sure to include dark, leafy greens, like spinach, broccoli, kale, and collard greens in your diet. And no matter the weather we are ready to shine!

Is Your Skin Ready For Fall?

It is officially Fall! The season of pumpkin spice lattes, caramel apples, sweaters, spooky ghosts and... dry skin?! Here are some suggestions to take care of your skin and some new daily skin care practices to try.

As you may know, your skin's hydration is directly impacted by the air moisture content. So it is easier to maintain smooth, plump, and healthy skin in the summer when it is warmer and more humid. In the summer, we also tend to eat healthier and exercise more, which promotes blood flow and keeps our skin healthy. In the transition months like September, skin loses a lot of moisture in the environment when the air is less humid. Here are a few tips to transition your skincare routine from summer to fall without causing a skin freak out.

-Continue to use your Sunscreen! The amount of UV radiation you are exposed to from the sun is not always correlated with the temperature outside. Keep your skin protected!

-Easy on exfoliation! Exfoliating is great for removing dead skin cells and smoothing out the skin, but over-exfoliation can irritate the skin, especially when it is exposed to harsher weather.

-Moisturize, but extra! Switch those lightweight gel moisturizers to something more dense and creamy. When the air is cold your skin barrier may need extra help from a richer consistency moisturizer.

Come fall, we have prepared a skincare mini makeover and maybe it is time for a new wardrobe, too!

Washing Your Makeup Off is So Important!

If you are as fascinated with beauty as me, then it is likely that you are constantly searching for methods and products that will keep your skin radiant and healthy no matter how much makeup you wear. Everyone agrees that taking off your makeup at night is a must. Undoubtedly, you have had some of those nights when you are simply too tired to even consider washing your face and brushing your teeth. However, it's not a good idea to go to bed wearing makeup and proper makeup removal should be a part of your nightly routine.

- The same cosmetics that helped you conceal wrinkles and fine lines the night before can set in overnight and leave your skin looking dry and tired in the morning.

-Most cosmetics will clog your pores, especially if used continuously. When you take off your makeup before bed, you give your skin a chance to breathe while you sleep, but when you wear full makeup to bed, it continues to clog the pores and eventually leads to breakouts and acne.

Try to follow three simple steps: Skin Cleaner, Foaming Cleanser, and Toning.

Important Tip! Avoid using hot water since it will dry up your skin by washing it of its natural oils. Cold water is also not recommended because it won't allow your pores to open. I advise using lukewarm water to rinse off your cleanser.

Never forger about Self-Care!

The kids are back in school, (and hopefully your spouse/partner is back in the office too), so now is the perfect time to take a few minutes to remind yourself that taking a break to recharge is essential to your well-being. And as you spend a big part of the day putting your family first, you should never forget about self-care. Even just 10 minutes is all it takes to feel refreshed and ready to take on the day. There are a few tips that could become an essential part of your everyday routine:

Hydration: Coffee can be a great start to the day, but it is important to stay hydrated. Water is an excellent beauty boost, it makes your skin glow, clears acne, and reduces hair loss!

Skin Care: This is highly recommended as a top priority. Use gentle, nourishing products to help keep skin in tip-top condition so that even when you might not be feeling your best, your skin still looks it. And if a beautiful, healthy complexion helps you feel and look your best, then it is most certainly worth your while.

Eating Healthy: Plan plan plan. It definitely takes some effort to think a day or two ahead about what you want to eat but it will pay off. 

A self-care routine should be simple. It is about feeling good, being happy, refreshed, and grateful. This may seem obvious, but just try to make time for yourself. You and your self-care are a priority to function at your highest level. 

When does makeup expire?


Did you know that just like milk, makeup has an expiration date? Most days I put on eyeliner, mascara, and lipstick and never think about the expiration date of the makeup until recently when I got an irritation around my eye. I realized it was a product causing the irritation. The hardest part of being a makeup lover and owning plenty of cosmetics is having to part with your favorite blush, lipsticks, and eyeliners when their expiration dates approach. I know that throwing away your makeup when there is still product left can be painful. However, there is a reason we should not hold onto our favorite products forever. We all probably have beauty products that are at least a couple of years old, and it is hard to even remember when we first started using them. If a beauty product has passed its expiration date, your skin might react to it. This could cause irritation and redness. Bacteria can quickly spread and result in breakouts or other problems. Some suggestions for you are to:

  • Check an expiration date

  • Keep products in a cool, dry place that is not in direct sunlight

  • Do not share makeup or skin care products with others

  • Use and clean the spatulas that come with your products or switch to using q-tips to scoop out your product

• Only open a new product if you plan on using it for a while.

As a general rule, if your beauty products suddenly start to smell weird or change color or consistency, throw them away! If you store and clean your beauty products carefully, you should be able to use them for several more months. To keep your make up up to date, plan to sort your supplies twice a year, throwing away any questionable products.

Smooth Skin = Body Scrub.

A few years ago, a friend recommended a body scrub. I made an appointment and I was hooked. A body scrub exfoliates the skin, removes dead skin cells, and stimulates blood flow. It is sometimes referred to as body polish and has a liquid base with particles that remove dead skin when you massage it over your body and then rinse you off. Boosting the blood flow to the surface of your skin, this action improves blood circulation and drains your lymph nodes. I try to get it done professionally twice a year after the winter and then at the end of the summer.

You can also do it at home and can be part of your skincare routine if you want to keep your skin soft, smooth, and healthy. Most health experts will say that exfoliating two to three times a week should do the trick. You might want to do it a little less if you have more delicate skin. Although body scrubs have been around for a while, today there are so many different varieties on the market, including ones made of salt, sugar, and coffee.

Healthy and beautiful hair.

Beyond The Popular Hairstyles For The Summer, Bright Colors And The Cuts That Will Help You Look Trendy, It's Important To Take Care Of Your Hair. While Dry Hair And Static Frizz Are Often Associated With Winter, Your Hair Can Also Suffer Throughout The Summer. Consider How Much Time Your Hair Spends In Chlorinated Pools, How Much Salt Builds Up, And How The Sun's Intense Heat Damages Your Hair.

It's Crucial To Modify Your Routine In The Hot Summer Months. To Help Remove Chlorine And Buildup, Switch From Your Regular Shampoo To A Clarifying One. You Can Also Try Applying A UV Protectant Spray When You Are Outside In The Sun. Anti-Frizz Or Shine Serums Can Also Be Helpful To Seal In Moisture While Preventing The Humidity From Ruining Your Hairstyle. To Maintain Your Hair Soft And Healthy During The Summer, Use Hair Masks More Frequently And Watch Your Healthy And Beautiful Hair Glow!

Catching Vitamin D

Catch Some Vitamin D!

When the sun is shining, are you actually catching the rays?
We sure hope so!

The healthy glow from a tan is not the only benefit that we can receive from the sun. Did you know that Vitamin D is absorbed through the sun as well?

Vitamin D, also known as the "sunshine vitamin," is produced by the body as we absorb the sun rays as well as from certain food and supplements. Vitamin D supports maintaining healthy bones and teeth, strengthens the immune system and cardiovascular health, regulate insulin levels, protection from certain conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and multiple sclerosis, boosts energy, and much more. In addition, sun exposure is beneficial to infants and expecting mothers.

When the sunlight is absorbed by our skin, our body system synthesizes this particular vitamin. It can be as simple as stepping outside during midday and exposing ourselves to the sun for about 5-10 minutes throughout the week and we can help our bodies produce sufficient Vitamin D. So what is the catch? Well, let us catch as much sunlight that we can this summer so we can store some Vitamin D in our system during the winter days!
