Latest Beauty Tips

Celebrities are sporting them so why shouldn’t you? Green fashion accessories abound and they are quite green and environmentally friendly. Most of the fashion trends of days gone by have been scorned and hated by green fellows for their sinister beginnings. They use exotic furs and skin products that have almost wiped out entire species. Most stars fall for the nostalgia of fur studded clothes that were the norm of days gone by. Those who choose to sport them are today hated and even subject to well, smear campaigns to dissuade their fashion statement. Green products are recyclable and were produced using green technologies. Whether from recycled goods, like the recent feature on CNN about fashion designers who use junk to make special fashion accessories. (more…)

Whether you want to admit it or not, Angelina Jolie’s lips make you envious because let’s face it, most of us aren’t born with full, voluptuous pouts and so we try to do everything we can to get that look. Unfortunately, it can be a bit of a challenge and it doesn’t always work out. You either put too much stuff on and you end up looking like a clown, you don’t put enough on, or you just can’t seem to get your pucker to look full no matter what you try! So what’s the trick to getting super full lips without the injection?

STEP 1: STAIN
Go to your local drug store and buy a berry shade lip stain. Start by dabbing it on to your lips by blending it into the inside of your mouth, which is the soft part next to your teeth. Use your ring finger to do this and dab it gently to create a just-kissed look.

STEP 2: STAY INSIDE THE LINES
This is a great trick to help you stay inside the lines with your products as well as to help prevent smudging. Simply apply concealer around your top and bottom lip using a concealer wand.

STEP 3: DEFINE
This is where you concealer does the trick! Pat the concealer in with your finger to set it – this will help with the definition of the mouth as well as creating a fuller lip.

STEP 4: FINISH
Finish off the process by applying a clear, sparkly gloss to your lips. When the light reflects off them, they will appear larger. And that’s all there is to it! Now granted your lips will probably never look like Angelina Jolie’s, but at least you can be proud of your pucker!

Not all your clothes fit you the way you want them to. There will be disastrous bumps and unflattering cuts after childbirth or when you put on weight. You can overhaul your wardrobe, but there’s another way out. What’s the secret behind bulge-free dresses and skin-tight shirts? Shapewear, of course. Flatten your tummy, slim down your midsection, or enhance curves where you want them. Shapewear comes in stretch fabrics with few or no seams, just like some underwear. You can control problem areas, enhance whatever body part under your clothes you choose. Two brands to check out: Flexees by Maidenform, which has some fantastic control slips just right for gowns, and Yummie Tummie for your long fitted tops.
