Many locations offer Alexis Vogel style makeup. Here’s a little Eye makeup Tip from Alexis Vogel’s website: www.makeupbyalexis.com
“For even greater staying power, use some clear brow gel instead of water, to pat on your choice of Glitz! Swipe some brow gel on the back of your clean hand using the brow gel applicator by twirling it on. Then using your finger tip or clean eye shadow brush, dip into the gel and apply to your lids. Using the same brush, lightly apply your Sparkle/Glitter/Glow dust of choice. You won’t get any fall off or particles on your cheeks either. Love this tip-super effective and easy. Love, Alexis.”
