Hi, I'm your host Dawn-Marie Mutell. I've been a fashion hound since I was 3 years old. I became a Certified Image Consultant through The Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC in 2002 so that I could teach women (and some good men) "how" to create their unique personality through style and help them build their confidence so that they could look and feel their best when they left their homes and went to work. And, as a former Skin Technician and makeup artist Clinique Cosmetics headquarters in NYC, it became my mission to help thousands of women learn how to care for mature skin so that they didn't have to be a slave to makeup. Makeup should enhance beauty not spend hours putting it on. In this podcast, I'll cover all of the tips and tricks of fashion, skincare, beauty, and how to market and build your online presence so that you can rock your business without worrying about how you look. I will help you create an arsenal of tools to help make your life more manageable, give you back your time and let you be more productive. Stop at our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DishItWithDawn be sure to introduce yourself, say "hi" and let us know what you do, where you're from, and any struggles you may be having with your personal entrepreneurial journey. In this group, I will also share some extra tutorial videos you won't be able to catch on the podcast. Be sure to subscribe to the podcast so you don't miss out on any future episodes. I'll see you inside!

It's National Secondhand Wardrobe Day - Get a New Wardrobe for Less

How do you feel about wearing slightly worn or used clothing? Some people can't deal with it. I myself have been wearing vintage and Goodwill finds for years. If you like to see some, check out the video on the Dish It with Dawn YouTube channel to see what I've found.Secondhand clothing shouldn't be looked down upon. There are so many items out there to choose from. Think about consignment shops, flea markets, yard sales, stoop sales or your local Salvation Army or Good Will stores. Think twice before you purchase something new, try on a find at your local store and save yourself tons of money. Heck, you can probably buy a whole wardrobe with what you'd pay for in a retail store.Happy shopping!!Love,Dawn-Marie

Get Your Lips Looking Great - It's National Lipstick Day!

It's National Lipstick Day and what better day to try a new lip color? A study done by the University of Michigan showed that men stared at women wearing red lip color 7.3 seconds vs. 2.2 seconds with those wearing no lip color? Lipstick has been around for thousands of years, they've done everything from using crushed gemstones in Mesopotamia, even crushed bugs (thank goodness we've since evolved). The first lipstick company was made in 1884 by Guerlain (one of my faves). They even have a lipstick called Kiss Kiss Gold & Diamond which costs a hefty $62,000. You read that right! And, in 2015 MAC cosmetics raised $380 million dollars with their Viva Glam fundraiser for aids. That's a lot of lipsticks being sold!What I love most about lipstick is that it's one of the quickest ways to brighten your face, make you feel refreshed and feeling great! Why not make a lip color your go-to for branding your business? Why not find some creative ways you can incorporate lip colors into your daily life. Think about Jennifer Lopez, she's made her mark with her nude glossy lips or Madonna with her vibrant Red lips.There's also a video for this episode so be sure to go to the YouTube channel - Dish it With Dawn and check it out there.In the meantime, here are some of my favorite go-to lip lines that I fancy. Try one today and be sure to take a selfie and use hashtag #nationallipstickday and #dishitwithdawn so that I can check it out.As a makeup artist, one of the most important things is to be sure that you are wearing the correct color for your skin temperature. If you're a cool you want to wear more berries, purples and fuchsias. If you're a warm temperature you can go with Corals, Golds, Peachy glosses and you look great in nude glosses.Here are some of my favorites:Clinique Almost Lipcolor in Black HoneyPat Mcgrath Labs Red Fantasy Lip Trio - Lipstick, Lip Gloss, Lip LinerEstee Lauder Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-In-Place Lip Pencil Apple CordialNARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil, Famous RedGuerlain Rouge G Jewel Lipstick Compact, 68 GigiBOBBI BROWN Lip Color RaisinBobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color, CranberryBobbi Brown Sweet Indulgences Mini Gloss Set, 4 CountWet n Wild MegaSlicks Lip Gloss Red Red SensationAnd don't forget to protect and care for your lips, teeth and face and keep them looking healthy and look more youthful in the process:Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Water Resistant and Non-Greasy Sunscreen Lotion with Broad Spectrum SPF 70Crest 3D Whitestrips, Professional Effects, Teeth Whitening Strip KitAll Natural, Vegan Coconut Lip Scrub - Gentle Exfoliation, Lip Polish & Lip ExfoliatorKisses,Dawn-Marie#lipstickoftheday#lipstickcollection#lipsticklover#lipsticklust#lipstickaddict#lipstickstash#lipstickcollection#nationallipstickday#patmcgrathcosmetics#cliniquecosmetics#bobbibrowncosmetics#neutrogenaskincare
