Welcome to Bonnie's Beauty Shop. Here is a quote from the founder, Bonnie Hedgewood:

"Beauty is a butterfly. The butterfly is restless, when it sits down it lets you admire its magical colours, and yet - just when you think you are able to hold it forever - it's gone. Beauty is similar; paralysing, restless and based on a successful mix of colours."

I hope you will enjoy somne of our products. And don't miss our beauty contest!

Have a colourful day!

General Beauty tips
When picking your colours you should concider the colours of your eyes, clothes and hair. You don't need to match all of them, but if they already make a colourful combination you should choose a discreet makeup.

When matching your outfit do pick up a secondary colour instead of the outfit's main colour. If you wear a one colour outfit, using a more neutral tone of the same colour for eye shadow might be smart. Choosing stronger makeup than the cloth you want to match will not favour your face at all.

The eyes and the lips of a woman are her best weapons when it comes to charming a man. In general we can say that eyes signalize intellect while lips express passion. When you want to make a good personal impression on a first date I would say the eyes are most important. A discreet lipstick will help keeping the focus on your eyes. If you prefer a discreet eye makeup you can actually drop the lipstick completely. Remember that lip gloss will drag attention to your lips, good for a flirt but not necessarily a good choice for the intellectual conversation.

A woman's outfit and/or makeup do not need to match the date/husband's colours/outfit in any way. Instead you can bring a napkin that matches your colours, to decorate his suit's chest pocket if convenient.

Eye shadow
The art of eye paint can be traced back to the ancient Sim communities. The eye was often connected to the 8 Gods and to mystical spirits; they believed that a large eye could scare away the bad ghosts.
And it doesn't hurt either that the makeup gave the women some kind of power over the men, both in ancient times and today.

The right colours can make beautiful eyes even more beautiful, or they can make dreadful eyes less dreadful (Ms Clocetta Gray).

Here are six basic colours for a start.
More advanced eye shadow will follow soon!

Eyeliner
Adding the eyeliner has a double function. Giving your eyes a nice contrast will make them more intense and clear. Pluss you can combine the eyeliner with any eyeshadow and get remarkable results.

Many female Sims prefer to use only the eyeliner with no additional eyeshadow, it's more discreet and might be a good choice for smaller occasions or your everyday makeup.

If your eyes are shaped horizontically "flat" my eyeliner product will make them look bigger. See model Veniza below (med. blue).

Eyeliners can be used in creative ways. Because the eyeshadow and eyeliner will partly blend, mixing two colours might give exciting cominations. The brown colours can be used to limit the effect of a full eyeshadow. Mixing darker eyeliner and lighter eyeshadow of the same base colour makes a nice effect. It's fun to experiment!

Also male Sims (teens and adults) do use my eyeliner with good results, especially brown and black.

Here are nine basic colours for a start.
More advanced eyeliners will follow soon!
