| Celebrity Makeup Artist Mally Roncal Last week Thursday I was fortunate enough to be able to be a part of Mally Roncal's Live UStream Broadcast , where she answered all of our beauty questions. I had three main concerns - What should I use on my skin as a bronzer without it giving me that " ashy" look? ( Because I am dark-skinned, a lot of the "Bronzing powders, etc.. do nothing for my complexion but makes it look dull) my second was - What is the best blush to appear vibrant on my dark skin ? ( like with bronzers, some blushes just appear white on my skin tone, or just don't appear in a flattering shade at all) , my third concern - How can I control the shine? Mally came to my rescue answering all of my questions ( although she tried her best, not every question was answered in the short time frame) , and "prescribed" the perfect remedies from her line Mally Beauty. Dilema : Perfect Bronzer for Darker Skin Solution : Believeable Bronzer

Dilema : A Blush that is flattering for Dark Skin
Solution : Get Cheeky! dewy blush in "Fely's Flush" and Blush Singles in "Cheeka"

| Get Cheeky! dewy blush in "Fely's Flush" Get Cheeky! dewy blush in "Fely's Flush" ($25 / QVC , Henri Bendel) is a cream blush is in a a rich, warm rose hue perfect for darker complexions. The point of a dewy blush is to leave a smooth "healthy glow" with the cream texture - which is the ideal formula to use during the warmer months . Mally describes the intended result is to "look like you just got back from exercising". |

| Blush Singles in "Cheeka" |
Cheeka ($18/ mallybeauty.com, Henri Bendel) is a bold pink powder blush hue that add a burst of color to the cheeks. Mally was adamant with recommending this color for me to use. I look forward to making this blush a staple in my beauty regime.
Dilema : Excessive Shine
Solution: Poreless Face Defender
Poreless Face Defender ($40/mallybeauty.com, QVC) is the death of "translucent powder" which Mally says leaves your skin with a dry /grey unattractive flaky and worn . This sheer overcoat which is silicone based, leaves your skin with a dewy, young and fresh look. Mally even suggested the use of the Poreless Face Defender when I asked about Bronzers that won't leave me looking "ashy". When Mally speaks of this new product , she speaks with so highly of it - no gimmicks , its the real deal. How to use: After foundation is applied, tap a small amount of product on the sponge applicator, then pat the sponge all over your face, including forehead, chin and creases.
