happy 5th birthday vapour

In what seemed like a lifelong search for the best and cleanest makeup, a connection was made in the Spring of 2011. Happily, sarimotley cosmetics found a beauty brand that walked the walk and talked the talk: Vapour Organic Beauty.

Vapour produces color cosmetics made from food-grade ingredients sustainably and honestly. With its unparalleled purity, Vapour Organic Beauty is about to celebrate five years of bringing the world a better, cleaner makeup made with organic ingredients. This brand is as much about being naturally gorgeous as it is about being green. I am delighted to celebrate bringing Vapour to you, to Houston, to a community of people who love the way it feels on their skin and how gorgeous they look when they wear it.

Happy Birthday Vapour!

relaxed routine

When it’s hot and sticky outside, the last thing you want is to feel the weight of heavy products on your skin.

First thing, convert to something that feels like skin, yet still gives you the coverage you desire. Prep skin with products that do double duty, like tinted moisturizers with SPF (Coola Mineral Matte Tint with SPF 30 or Coola Mineral Rose Tint, SPF 20–both provide moisture, antioxidants, sun protection and a little sheer tint).

Also, using a primer will help even skin tone and texture without adding color (Stratus Instant Skin Perfector from Vapour Organic Beauty).
Find multi-taking products for adding color. This makes summer makeup extra-easy (Vapour’s Aura Multi-use Blush stick for cheeks, eyes and lips– favorite color picks for summer: crush, spark, courtesan and foxy).
Give eyes a sheer wash of color with fun in the sun shades that bloom, inspire, bronze and twinkle. Add a little mascara and have fun!

To find your relaxed routine and simple summer look, make an appointment to visit the studio (call 713-292-6711 or email sari@sarimotley.com.

totally truffle

The long awaited launch of Vapour's Mesmerize Eyeliner, in its newest shade–Truffle, is finally here.

Truffle is a soft, taupey-brown, the perfect color for creating a softer (non-black) smokey look–a look that's easy on the eyes in more ways than one.

Mesmerize glides on without dragging or tugging on the skin. It's beautifully blendable, offering the softer looking side of smooth precision or sexy, smudgy.

Also, this extra-special eyeliner pencil is gluten free–like the rest of the Vapour collection–and does not contain the harsh adhesives found in traditional eye pencils.




Made with 70% organic ingredients, Mesmerize is a true treat for the eyes. Enjoy nourishing and moisturizing properties from organic coconut and sunflower oils, and soothing extracts of organic chamomile. Your eyes deserve Mesmerize!

don't be a flake

As it gets colder (and it will, even if it’s just for two days), the air inside will be warmer and drier. This can lead to dry, itchy skin. But you can help prevent dry skin by using products that attract moisture. Here’s how:

Use a moisturizing cleansing pad like Preserve Skincare Cleansing Pad in Orange Blossom, with aloe and herbal extracts. Or try a creamy cleanser like easy-does-it with cucumber and shea butter.
    At night, use mild, creamy cleansers sans the lather. Two to try: Vapour’s Clarity with jojoba and evening primrose oil, and sarimotley’s easy-does-it (as suggested above). 
    Apply moisture while skin is still damp to help lock in moisture. Ingredients to look for: moisure-boosting hyaluronic acid (glow-getter), aloe (glow-getter) and shea butter (glow-getter, do-over, dollface). If skin feels tight, find a thicker, richer creme. Or skip creme and go for a hydrating and nourishing oil like Vapour’s Essence

    To prevent dullness, try a gentle exfoliator like sarimotley’s polish microdermabrasion creme with aloe vera and shea butter. Or try something from your kitchen like a little coconut oil and organic sugar. 

    If you have additional questions about your skin and how to hydrate during the the fall and winter, contact sari@sarimotley.com.

    fall has it all

    The change of seasons dictates fashion, and the biggest transition is Fall. Who will show what, and how will its runway edginess translate to everyday wear? Easy enough, pick a trend or two and make them your own. Fall 2012 is captivating, expressive and bold. Find seriously smooth skin, extravagant eyes and lovely lush lips.

    getting it covered
    smooth skin with vapour organic beauty
    stratus soft focus instant skin perfector
    and atmosphere soft focus foundation 
    If you are still searching for the foundation that makes your skin appear flawless, now is the time to find it. With multiple formulas on the market–many touting skin-benefitting advantages—getting your hands on just the right one has never been easier. Foundation should look and feel like your skin. When choosing a new color, start with a few shades; paint a stripe of each near the jaw line. In natural light, the color you want is the least noticeable.

    Flawless is different for everyone, but the result is the same—gorgeous skin. Find the perfect match with beauty award winning Luminous and Soft Focus formulas from Vapour Organic Beauty at sarimotley cosmetics.

    extravagant eyes
    black box lash jewel, gel eyeliner pencil
    and pressed mineral eyes shadows
    feast your eyes
    Classic or dramatic, winged or smoked-out sexy; a favorite look for Fall requires keeping eye-defining tools within reach. Don’t worry if you’re not a pro, these lines are totally doable. Easy to apply, simple to smoke-out and brilliant for building lashes with impact.

    Eye shadow shades you’ll want to wear: navy (indigo), gold (antique brass, gold minx, sand), taupe (moonstone, taupe tan), mauve (fading rose, brushed velvet), grey (cat’s eye, platinum, opal) and green (emerald mist, olive slate).

    read my lips
    First off, keep lips smooth and soft with gentle exfoliation (one to try: sarimotley amazing lip polish), and apply lip balm regularly so lips stay moist (sarimotley smartmouth natural lip balm available in the studio).

    lovely lush lips with vapour organic beauty
    siren lipstick in tryst and bold
    Using a neutral tone lip liner is an easy way to keep lip color in place and looking great. Also, you may want to invest in a professional lip brush for applying lip color. It takes a little more time, but you’ll have more control over the finished look. Go bolder and sexier with color. Hues to look for: plum (tempt, au pair), pink (coquette, possess), red (ravish, tryst, bold, torrid) and neutral (chere, naive).

    For assistance and info on creating your look for Fall, contact sari@sarimotley.com.

    best at bronzer

    Bronzer is a real mainstay for spring and summer, and creating that sun-kissed look. A great bronzer, applied correctly, is a beautiful way to enliven your complexion. Here's how you can achieve an easy, totally natural look with creamy or powder bronzer formula:

    creamy bronzer

    Apply product directly to forehead, cheekbones bridge of nose and chin, blend into skin with fingertips for a fresh-from-the-beach look. Try beauty editors’ favorite obsession, Vapours’ Solar Bronzer. Solar is no ordinary bronzer. This quick, easy stick application will give you stunning sun-free color with environmental antioxidant protection! Can also be used on shoulders, décolletage, and legs. This Vapour favorite will never leave you streaky, orange or fake.



    powder bronzer

    With a big, fluffy brush lightly apply to the areas of your face the sun would naturally highlight; sweeping color over forehead, cheekbones, bridge of nose and chin. Try sheer textured mineral bronzer like Beyond Bronze from Senna Cosmetics (available at sarimotley studio), a neutral tone for all skin. This trio allows you to create your perfect bronze with soft vanilla and golden bronze tones. 

    It's easy to get glowing with bronzer. Find your favorite formula at sarimotley.com or sarimotley studio

    smart summer

    Is your skin ready for summer? Making a few adjustments is key to breezing beautifully through the heat, humidity and sun. Of course you are using SPF for your face daily, correct? And on your body too, right? Also, remember to stay hydrated inside and out by drinking plenty of water. These daily do’s will help keep you looking “cool” despite rising temps.

    use spf daily even when not at the beach or pool

    After a bath or shower, slather on a body lotion, with SPF, to exposed areas (hands, arms, chest, etc.) to protect and moisturize. Two to try: Coola’s Mineral Body Unscented (limited edition) or Coola’s new Plant UV Collection (coming soon). And a favorite for the face, Coola’s new Matte Tint, SPF 30.
    COOLA Matte Tint, SPF 30

    make makeup simple 

    Go for creamier formulas with your foundation (Atmosphere Luminous Foundation) and blush (Aura Multi-use Blush). They are really durable and easy to blend, and when formulated with skin-loving organic ingredients (like those in Vapour Organic Beauty), an uncompromising bonus for your skin. 
    Vapour Organic Beauty: Atmosphere Luminous Foundation

    blot not blotchy

    Keep a pack of blotting papers in your handbag. These are great for absorbing oil and sweat and will refresh your look without the blotchiness of powder. Try Tatcha Beauty Papers made from oil-absorbing abaca leaf. 
    TATCHA Beauty Papers

    nourish your skin at night

    If you need simplicity, keep these two go-to products by your bedside table: (1) Preserve Cleansing Pads in Orange Blossom, and (2) Vapour’s Essence Restorative Night Treatment. Remove the day’s muck and dirt with Preserve Cleansing Pad, then massage one pump of Vapour’s Essence onto face and neck. Wakeup stunning! 
    Preserve Cleansing Pads in Orange Blossom

    mind your mouth

    Keep lips super-hydrated with a simple nourishing balm like smartmouth natural lip balm from sarimotley. With cocoa butter and lip-loving natural oils, this freshly scented sassy balm will keep your foxy lips smooth and calm.

    These smart summer essentials are available at sarimotley studio, sarimotley.com. For more information please email sari@sarimotley.com or call 713-292-6711.

    greasepaint gossip

    Hello Makeup Bag, we need to talk. Rumor has it you are are holding on to a few things that are making me look, well, older!

    Many amazing things come with age: intelligence, security, comfort, etc., and with that delight comes gravity, graying and an occasional feeling of being less gorgeous than before. Brave the battle with a little tweaking of everyday things, like your makeup.

    In the article "16 Ways to Look Younger With Makeup" (Allure, April 2012), Danielle Pergament amusingly writes that "turning back the clock can be as simple as opening your makeup bag." With her insight and some product suggestions, here is a little sarimotley digest version on how to look more youthful:
    • Moisturize. Forget this step and you're doomed with dullness. Keep skin smooth and supple and the rest is easy. (Great for daily moisture replenishment and filled with antioxidants, do-over daily moisture creme with co-Q10).
    • Creative concealing. Correcting facial imperfections with a light-diffusing and hydrating concealer is key. Think of adding brightness to camouflage by reflecting light away as opposed to adding layers to hide behind. Try Illusionist from Vapour Organic Beauty.
    • Warm it up. Adding a touch of bronzer to warm the skin and give a healthy, youthful glow can take years off a tired face. Just go with a more day at the spa look vs. back from the beach (Vapour's Solar Bronzer in Simmer is the perfect shade for most skin tones).
    • Powder is passe. The days of being powder perfect are in the past. If you must, use a translucent, light-diffusing powder like the Mineral Mix Secret Set powder from Senna Cosmetics (available at sarimotley studio). Or when it's just a touch up, try Tatcha's Japanese Blotting Papers made from Abaca leaf.
    • Get cheeky. Creamy, dewy textures are perfect for dry mature skin, especially when they are packed with nourishing organic ingredients that leave your face feeling cared for. Use your cheekbones as a guide for placing blush for just the right flush. (Aura Multi-Use Blush from Vapour).
    • Just browsing. Go a little lighter with your brow color (unless you are blonde, then just a shade darker) using softer strokes to fill in sparse areas. Find your brow solutions at sarimotley studio.
    • Batter up. If you are not already doing so, start using your eyelash curler. Lashes become less full, and giving them a little bump up helps open the eyes and brighten your look. (Tarte's Picture Perfect Eyelash Curler is awesome.)
    • Prime time. Smooth on a little shadow primer to even lid tone and soften fine lines. This will help eye shadow keep its true color and stay put longer. Totally Transforming Eyeshadow Primer from Senna is an anti-ageing powerhouse with ingredients like hibiscus to help firm and smooth.
    • Beware black. Dark brown liner is the new black. It's less intense, but still defines the eyes. Keep the line super-close to the lashes and maybe fore go the liner on lower lashes for a softer look. (Superwear Gel Liner in dark sienna available at sarimotley studio).
    • Let in a little light. A soft shimmer, not glitter, on the inner corners of the eyes will wake up your makeup. Also, jut a touch above cheekbones and on the brow bone will add nice dimension. (Trick Stick from Vapour, available as sarimotley studio.)
    • Lips of luxury. Boost natural lip tone with universally flattering shades like berries, mauves and just bitten reds. Vapour's Siren Lipsticks are the go-to for finding your perfect shade. Colors that are more sheer allow natural lip tone to peek through, making the hue you choose your very own.

    tangerine tango


    The color pros at Pantone report "tangerine tango" as the color of the year. This is absolutely glorious! It's happy, carefree and fun–just like spring. Aren't you ready to feel fresh and free with your look? Spring is a cinch! There is no need to reinvent yourself because it's ok to incorporate one new thing. Whether you are cool or coy, this season's trends make it super easy.

    You may already have look-creating makeup essential in your possession, but if they are in the way back of your makeup drawer (read: more than two years old), it's time to find replacements.

    Your spring/summer makeup menu: red, bright and/or nude lip color (see chart from Vapour Organic Beauty on finding red and nude lip color); skin-tone flattering blush (Vapour's Aura Multi Use Blush for the perfect flush); bronzer (Vapour Solar Bronzer in Simmer is stunning); eye liner; and a pastel or pop of color for eyes and nails (Butter London Spring/Summer 2012: disco biscuit, bossy boots, slapper, trout pout, knackered).

    Express Spring/Summer 2012:
    • Enjoy a pop of color for your lips. Go bright red or try a sassy orange. If you want to play it safe, go with a bright gloss that's sheer.
    • A monochromatic face. Just a hint of color for cheeks and eyes is super easy to achieve with Vapour Aura Multi Use Blush (spark, intrigue and impulse are sure to be season favorites).
    • Beautifully bronzed. Use the high points of the face (cheekbones, forehead, nose, chin) as a guide to achieve that back from the beach look; keep eyes and lips simple.
    • Vintage eyeliner is a go. Play with this liner look until it feels right for you, and practice to achieve your desired shape. See blog repost from myheartistry for a great "how to" on winged liner. Image below courtesy of myheartistry.
    • Brows are thicker and fuller. Brow gel is a must-have for that brushed-up and youthful look. (Senna Brow Fix X available at sarimotley studio).
    • Going nearly nude on the lip. Remember, there is a fine line between ghastly and gorgeous. To find the nude that suits you, go one shade darker than your skin tone with a hint of pink or peach.
    For more inspiration on a bright and beautiful look for your spring/summer 2012, stop by sarimotley.com or visit the contact page to make an appointment (Houston area). See you soon.

    dazzling in december

    "Nothing says festive like shimmering metallic makeup (Fitness Magazine, November/December 2011)." In the article "Glisten Up," Eleanor Langston offers get-glam tips from top experts. This brilliant feature prompted a share of sarimotley essentials that will secure you a spot amid the glamorously glimmering.

    Start with luminous skin, here's how: party prepped skin is smooth (and exfoliated). Try polish skin-smoothing microdermabrasion creme to get fresh skin fast. Then add a little moisture (a favorite: do-over daily moisture creme with co q-10) to keep skin supple. Now skin is ready to glow.

    Prime and prettify with Vapour Organic Beauty Stratus Instant Skin Perfector to even skin's tone and texture. Follow with Vapour's Atmosphere Luminous Foundation for a radiant finish. Add a dash of dazzle atop cheek bones, with Vapour's Aura Mutli-use Blush (radiant), and find luminosity effortless.
    Make eyes sparkle. Metallic shadows are definitely soiree savvy, but keep it simple. For brown eyes play with plums (Brushed Velvet), pewters (Cat's Eye Quartz, Titanium) or navy's (Night). Beautify those baby blues with bronze (Bronzite, Caramel, Ember) and copper (Cinnamon Stone, Firefly). And make green eyes gorgeous in plums with hints of pink and gold (Fading Rose, Sun Quartz). Find these shade suggestions from Vapour's Mesmerize Shimmer Eye Treatment and pressed Mineral Eye Shadow at sarimotley.com.
    Lovelier with lacquer. Take it to the next level with party pretty metallics for nails from Butter London. Metallic mainstays: Big Smoke (mildly metallic navy), Bluey (metallic dark peacock), Fairy Lights (liquid metal rose pink), Knees Up (smashing metallic red), The Full Monty (molten gold) and Wallis (metallic olive).
    Now get glowing girl.
