A summer face
is a real put on
If you're as overwhelmed as I am when you
visit the cosmetics counter, perhaps you'll
appreciate the professional tips in today's
column. Initially, I wanted to focus on the soft
new makeup colors for summer, but I found
myself inquiring about all the cosmetic and skin
care secrets that I ever pondered, from eyelash
tints to bronzing powders.
Geri Emmett of Trish McEvoy cosmetics in
New York answered my color questions. Geri says
to think translucent for summer. Sheer textures
and light watercolors are the keys to looking cool
in warm, humid weather. She recommends a nude
eye, brushed in whites and light pinks and lined
in a soft brown powder. "A pencil tends to get
rather oily in the summer. A powder liner creates a
softer eye," she says.
A tinted moisturizer is a good alternative to
foundation, and the McEvoy product contains an
SPF of 15. This sheer color combined with a
bronzing powder produces a sun-kissed look with
just two light layers of makeup. {I'm partial to
Yves Saint Laurent's Sunny Complexion Powder.)
If voulove you?Tedlipstick, ail ..year-round, try
"Strive for an application of under five minutes,"
concludes Emmett. After all, you don't
want to waste any daylight.
Find the entire Trish McEvoy line of cosmetics
exclusively at Lori Karbal in Birmingham.
For a bit of pampering, make an appointment
with Todd Skog, the resident makeup artist at
Lori's boutique. I observed this well-respected expert
at work as he applied his art to the attractive
visage of fashion retailer Adriane Petr&kis. Adriane
wanted a fresh look and she was partial to
navies and violets. "No pinks or roses," she pleaded.
Sponge or puff?
Todd began by removing all traces of Adriane's
lipstick with Kiehl's lip balm, a moisturizer that
also removes color. He liberally applied Trish
McEvoy's concealer to eye lids and lips, using a
shade lighter than skin tone. The base color was
blended with a sponge for a sheerer look. A puff
gives more coverage.
Though Adriane tended toward dark, smoky
eyes and dark liner, Todd opted to "pop the eyes
out" with a lighter look. An ivory base acted as
canvas with a gray/brown shadow lining the lid
and a smoky blue in the crease and at the corners.
He followed with black mascara and an eyelash
curler. Todd warned never to line the inside of the
eye, as it takes the white of your eye and makes it
smaller.
The finishing touches involved a bronzer for the
cheeks and an auburn lip liner with a brown/red
lipstick by Kiehl's. And the verdict? "I like my
eyes and lipstick a lot," said Adriane. "The bronze
cheeks aren't me but I like them. It's very different,
not as intense as my usual bright orange/red
lipstick and purple eyes."
"That's the best thing about makeup," says
Todd "You can put on a different face every day.
You can make subtle changes and experiment."
Lash tints are in
I also picked the brain of aesthetician Naoko
Void, the proprietor of Dol-Vando skin care and
beauty center in the BloomAeld Town Square
shopping center, 2235 S. Telegraph. Known for her
invigorating and healing Shiatsu massages, Naoko
is also knowledgeable on the subject of cosmetics.
She carries Aveda products in her shop and recommends
a "bare eye" for summer. This look is
achieved however, with three natural color shadows
in apricot and gold tones.
Naoko says that warm weather dictates less
makeup, a concealer and translucent powder are
usually enough. And lashes are back. A lash tint
($15) is perfect for summer. Just think, no drippy
mascara to mar your dip in the pool.
"I like pale cheeks and stand-out eyes and lips,"
says Naoko.
A visit to Naoko really wouldn't be complete
without a massage ($15-145). A Shiatsu massage
removes lactic acid from the muscles and restores
balance through skilled manipulation of pressure
points. Naoko use* her Shiatsu training to relieve
stress and tightness that can have a physical origin.
"I can detect gallstones, lack of estrogen, even
stomach irritation," she says. Her facials also include
Shiatsu massage techniques ($45-$66).

Planners like Franklin store

aged to do 12 of them. The 13th was
humility, and every time he got to
feeling good about the first 12 he'd accomplished,
the humility went right
out the window."
The Franklin Planner was created
in 1983 by a Salt Lake City-based
company hoping to simplify the busy
executive's schedule with an all-purpose
organizer. Today, it's common to
see these black or burgundy notebooks
pop open at PTA meetings, after
club tennis matches, and during
shopping mall lunches — almost everyone
has one.
"The Franklin Planner will help
you become the kind of person you
want to be — whether it's a better
parent, a citizen more active in the
community, a successful executive,"
said Frank Foley, a sales associate.
"Most of our customers come from
the corporate world, but you'll see
Franklin Planners in all walks of
life."
A Franklin Quest store opened in
the Novi mall six months ago to meet
the growing demand on the "west side
of the city" according to Foley. There
are also shops in Dearborn and Troy.
The planner is based on Franklin's
13 virtues, and the company adopted

store opened in 1986. Their competition
is the day planner and the
ordinary- calendar, but Franklin Planners
have an edge.
"We sell a system," explained
Frank Foley, sales associate. "We're
not just product based, we are education
based. We care about helping
people set goals and we show them
how to work towards achievement."
Foley described the Franklin
Planner as a comprehensive time
management diary that includes a
personal finance section, extensive
reference material, a five-year planning
calendar, and pages for dates,
addresses and phone numbers.
Some contain road maps and dictionaries
of the 7,000 most misspelled
words. Add-on modules are available
to help those interested in project
planning, sales forms, exercise logs
and menu planners.

works in retail. He bought a Franklin
planner this year after noticing how
much his girlfriend relied on hers.
"I carry it with me all the time
now," he said. "It's all you need right
in your hand, plus your watch. Years
ago I had one and it was stolen from
my car. "The company replaced the
inserts for free and gave me 10-percent
off a new binder. Now that's customer
service."
The store offers seminars and sells
cassette tapes and books to help new
customers use the planner most efficiently.
"The seminars are offered twice a
month in the Detroit area and you
register through the stores," he said.
"The $195 fee includes a full day
seminar and of course a Franklin
Planner. Twenty-thousand people a
month take the course throughout the
country."
That's quite a following and Foley
joked that some people see devoted
Franklin planner users as members of
a cult.

I bet you think malls are just for
shopping.
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
The following episodes reveal that
people fall in love in'-malls. People get
chased by bears in malls. Santa Claus
gets his feelings hurt in malls. And
some find malls the perfect place for
nesting.
Twelve Oaks Mall
Marketing director Elaine Kah recalled
the time two employees became
engaged at the Novi mall.
"A guy and a gal worked at the mall
in separate stores located near each
other, and they would take their
breaks outside the stores on this mall
bench," she explained. "They met on
the bench and after some months, the
guy proposed to the gal on the bench.

Oakland Mall
Before he retired from the Oakland
Mall in Troy, which he managed for
20 years, Don Pyden recalled the time
a United Parcel Service driver
wouldn't take "no!" for an answer.
"We had the Moscow circus in
town and we wanted to promote the
circus and the mall by having a few of
those Russian bears on display," he
said. "Well, we had no place to keep
the bear until showtime, so we lured
him into a rear corridor used for loading.
"The door had no lock, so we stationed
a security guard outside. Along
comes this devoted UPS delivery guy
who insisted on using the corridor to
make a delivery. We told him no because
there was a bear inside and he
just wouldn't believe it. I wish you
could have seen his face when he
opened that door and came nose to
nose with our furry friend."
