In the 1950′s Audrey Hepburn filmed Roman Holiday, a cinema classic. Hepburn loved the country so much she eventually moved there. Just days ago, Beyonce and Jay-Z took to Cuba for a holiday and the controversy begins. Unlike Rome, the United States has a stormy history with Cuba and United Stated citizens are forbidden from visiting Cuba, but can visit the country legally with a bit of fancy travel planning. I’ve always wanted to visit Cuba, the country is rich in culture, history, famous for cigars and invented the mojito! I don’t think this is the couple’s first trip to Cuba and if they love it, I hope it won’t be the last! In fact, I want to go too!
Ps. I love the braids, I love the fashion, and of course I love the variety of lipsticks!

If you’re like me and have a sister you share shoes, clothes and makeup. You can’t pick the perfect sister but you can pick a perfect foundation. Want a flawless foundation? When visiting the makeup counter find a foundation that matches the center of your cheek verses the jaw line or dare I say, the back of your hand or wrist. None of which are the same color or texture as your face!
Matching the cheek will give a precise match to your full face. Foundation blended with concealer will give you the perfect match. To achieve the perfect foundation begin with a light moisturizer. Using a moisturizer will allow the foundation and concealer to glide onto the skin. Apply dime-sized drop foundation to the skin with a moistened Beauty Blender Sponge. Blend through the inner eye and through the forehead, cheek, chin and neck. Covering these areas of the face will give you a smooth complexion and a great base for your additional makeup like blush or bronzer. Use a loose, fluffy powder brush to set your foundation. Applying a translucent, loose powder with a fluffy powder brush gives a soft and natural finish to a gently applied foundation.
