Perfect Lips

Thank you for tuning into another episode of TheCatHarleyConnection your continued support is appreciated.

In this episode of The Cat Harley Connection I showed y'all how  to achieve a long lasting nude lip that works on all complexions. This is my go to lip combo for my self and my clients. The two products I used were a matte liquid lipstick and my concealer shade that I used to hilight my face.
The liquid lipstick shade I used was a deep mauve shade  that complemented my pink shadow I topped the center of my lips with concealer my giving me the perfect nude lips. Choosing this combo with matte finish allows for the ultimate long wear combo even when wearing your mask.

I repeat, this combo works on all complexions because you're using your concealer. The look I was going for was a matte lip how ever if you want to amp up this look a little further you can top it off with gloss.

This is a great tecnique for you because it will make you look wonderful and this nude lip combo can compliment all shadow applications and variations.​

It's fun and easy to learn more tecniques like these. Your lips are the perfect lips...give them some love! And remember to tune into my next episode. YTou can catch all the episodes on IG and Facebook. See you in the next broadcast of the CatHarleyConnection.

​​Thank you for tuning into another episode of TheCatHarleyConnection your continued support is appreciated.
 
In today’s episode I answered a viewer’s question: "What’s the difference between Human, Remy, and Virgin Hair Extensions?”
This is a great question, that I get asked a lot, and I am excited to bring you this broadcast to clarify the differences.  When you start to shop for hair these words are going to pop up and may seem to be used interchangeably, but the meanings of each is different and can make all of the difference in the outcome of meeting your expectations.
As you will see in my broadcast, to know the differences in (Human, Remy, and Virgin Hair)  is extremely important because they not only have different price points, but they also have different purposes, uses, application methods and most importantly, different results!
All 3 of these types of hair can be used successfully with a variant number of styles, and I am happy to help guide you to 1. purchasing what suits you best for the specific look you want to achieve and 2. determining the length of time you want your style to last. These and other factors should carefully be considered when choosing the right type of hair.

Your overwhelming support of the Cat Harley Connection show means so much...! Everytime you tune in it's a wonderful thing!  Please keep viewing and sharing and I'll keep you connected to all things beauty!

In today’s episode, I showed you a great blush application technique.
 Check it Out!

Blush is the last step in my makeup routine, and it really creates such a natural finish to my foundation process by bringing color to the cheeks, after the foundation application. 

A top-secret makeup trick I shared with you today is using eyeshadow as blush.
I chose a matte pink shade, but your options are endless.  Some of my favorite shades of blush are orange, pink and red.

Lip Lockin'

​Hey yall!

Thanku for tuning onto another episode of TheCatHarleyConnection your growing support is much appreciated.  In today’s episode I showed you an application technique for your lips called “ombre.”

This is a skill that allows you to apply a lighter color lipstick in the middle of the lip and the outline of the lip is defined with a deeper shade of lipstick or liner.
​
The “ombre lip” was a hugely popular in the 9o’s and one of my personal favorite makeup trends.  I am very excited to see this trend making its way back around and super excited to show you how to achieve the look.

Ombre Lips
This a fashion statement that pairs well with any makeup look and it transitions well from a day to an evening look!! For a fact, I would love to see your interpretation of the ombre lip.  Just follow the video tutorial and take a selfie! I know you’ll learn to love it as much as I do!

I’m looking forward to bringing you the next CatHarleyConnection where you can stay connected to everything beauty. See you in 2 weeks at 1pm for the next episode on IG live ​

Thanku for tuning into the latest episode of The Cat Harley Connection.  Your continued support is much appreciated!!

In today's episode I shared with you my personal skincare routine.  These are the very same steps I take on a consistent basis to keep my skin clear and glowing!  Cleansing and moisturizing serums are included as well, just before moisturizer. 
​

Keep in mind the advice I gave you on how serums penetrate deeper than moisturizers, so applying serums before applying moisturizer is  very important. This will help the long term results produce better results. 
CHC-Healthy Hair
Proper skin care is the base and beginning of a flawless makeup foundation!  When I have a Client in my chair, the relaxing ritual of cleansing and properly moisturizing her skin allows me to then apply the  flawless look she is seeking.

Get started by book your seamless beat today at www.CatHarley.Com, and then keep using my tips in between our appointments.

Create Perfect Brows with the Perfect Tools

​Thank you for tuning in for another episode of the CatHarleyConnection, where
I keep you connected to everything beauty!

As always, I appreciate your support and your feedback. You've told me that The CHC Brow Series is one of your favs. That's why I appreciate you so much. We girls need to have each others back, so please keep sharing my tips within your circle...and keep your comments and feedback coming! I love it!

In today's episode, I demonstrated a super easy, beginner brow tutorial. Eyebrows can really pull a makeup look together, and the Cat Harley Collection Brow Series makes easy work of perfecting  your brows.
My brow series collection has five of the best tools for shaping your brows.
  • Defining pencil,
  •  Defining powder,
  • Double trouble brow brush (not just for brows – works great for smoothing down baby hairs),
  • Flatline brush
  • and a highlighter pencil.
The defining pencil and powder (shown in brunette and medium for this episode) are really buildable, so you can tailor the color saturation to suit your needs. Creating a bold dramatic brow or an everyday look? These tools are your go-to for a precise look with a quick application. In fact, our brunette pencil is very popular with our clients. It’s a versatile tool that works well with various skin tones and hair colors.
Cat Harley Collection

​The defining powders in the Cat Harley Brow Series Collection are the perfect partners to the brush tools.  And you don’t need to pile on the powder. A little goes a long way toward setting a brow look that stays in place all day. That’s right. Reapplies not need apply!
​

As good as the defining powders are, if you want to stick with the pencils, that’s perfectly fine. Mix and match the products and have fun with them!
Introducing the “Mariah” unit

In addition to demonstrating my brow perfecting tools, I also introduced my lovely viewers to the latest addition to the Cat Harley Crown Collection – the Mariah unit. This unit is a high density lace front unit. She hangs at 28 inches of raw, virgin, curly Indian hair. Her warm caramel color is kissed with blonde highlights. Imagine her blowing down your back with her light color catching the sun. With warmer days just around the corner, she’s just the right look for the upcoming sundress season.

The Mariah unit and my Cat Harley Brow Series Collection are available; visit my website CatHarley.com to pick up these powerful brow tools and browse (pun intended) the hair units for the perfect look for your crown.

 I’ll see you all on IG live in two weeks at 1:00 p.m. for another episode of the Cat Harley Connection.

In the meantime, I hope you all will continue connecting with me on Facebook, IG (@2ndbornsytlist), on YouTube, and on my website. Tell me about the beauty trends that interest you and an appointment or consultation with me so that we can connect on everything beauty!

Lace or No Lace

12/11/2021

0 Comments

 
Thank you for tuning in for another episode of the CatHarleyConnection. As always, I appreciate your support. Please keep your comments and feedback coming! 

In today's show, I presented two options that may lead you to ask whether a lace front unit or no-lace unit is right for you.. 

During the episode, I showed you how I style my lace front "Grace" unit. This six-inch unit offers a short, sexy, edgy look that can go from day to night with ease. Its manageable length is perfect for those who are on the go. It also allows you to play around with different hair textures and lengths while preserving the health of your own hair. 

In styling the “Grace,” I used my curling tool to enhance the existing body wave of the unit. By curling the “Grace'' in different directions, I created body and waves that gave the style more movement, more life. 
​

Pro tip: I’m often asked how to prevent crimping when using heated tools in hair. Just keep that curling iron moving. Keeping your curling iron in one place in your hair can create those crimps. 

In addition to styling “Grace”, I also introduced you to our custom u-part unit – “Xtina.” This unit is affectionately named after my sister. 
Contact CHC
“Xtina” is a bob unit that features an effortless, beachy, ombre vibe. Unlike the “Grace,” the “Xtina” doesn’t have any lace at the front. Its u-part provides the wearer with the flexibility of wearing their hair out in the front and the top. “Xtina” can be clipped in, which allows for daily removal of the unit. Of course, you could also have it sewn in to enjoy the style a little longer. “ 

“Xtina” is a custom unit, for real. Creating her requires taking a mold of your head to get exact measures for a beyond perfect fit every time you wear it. Because this unit and every aspect of its creation is perfectly tailored to fit you, I cannot stress the importance enough of contacting the CatHarleyConnection for a consultation on either the “Grace'' or the “Xtina.” 

So after checking out this latest episode,, what do you think? Lace front or no lace? Hmm, I figure, why not both? 

Interested in rocking the “Grace” or “Xtina,” connect with CatHarley.com to schedule your introductory consultation. 
 
That’s all for now. I’ll see you all in two weeks at 1:00 pm on Instagram Live. ​
