Tips on simple Summer Looks


Summer brings with it a ghastly image of runny foundation, smudged Kajal and clumpy mascara. And that only seems normal with the soaring temperatures. What do you do then, if you’re the kind who can’t do without your daily fix? We got the experts to show you the lightest looks you can opt for.



Look 1

Ø  Use a light moisturizer followed by a very light compact to keep the skin matte and fresh.
Ø  For the eyes, use a hint of waterproof kohl and mascara. If you want to dress up, use winged-tip eyeliner or colors like green, blue and grey, apart from the classic black and brown.
Ø  Use only a bit of the cheek tint, which is great for summer. If you use too much, it will streak.
Ø  Apply a pop of color on your lips, directly or using a lip brush. A hint of gloss just at the centre of the lips gives a good finish. Using a lip pencil to fill in a natural color on the entire lip along with some pink gloss gives a subtle yet finished look.

Look 2 (My Favorite Look)
Ø  Begin with a tinted SPF moisturizer. A BB cream is your best choice this season because it acts as your moisturizer, sunscreen as well as foundation.
Ø  Use eye shadow in a neutral shade to brighten up your eyes. You can also use it on the bridge of the nose and cheeks to highlight your features for an evening look.
Ø  Use a coral blush, matte or slight shimmer for day and evening both. Use sheer blush to make your face glow.
Ø  Sheer orange gloss or tinted lip balm is a good choice for summers. Avoid wearing anything heavy or sticky on the lips.
Ø  Choose brown, charcoal and plum pencils for light yet defined eyes. Add a dash of mascara (make sure it’s light and non-clumpy).

Look 3
Ø  Massage your skin with a generous amount of moisturizer.
Ø  Use primer to even out the skin texture and ensure a better finish for your foundation.
Ø  Use a Concealer if required to cover any shadows or discoloration on the skin.
Ø  Apply foundation with a brush. Set it with translucent powder for long-lasting results and to take away excess shine from the face.
Ø  Use a bronzer to get a flush of color in an orang-ish-brown color.
Ø  Apply a layer of eye shadow in toffee and caramel with groomed brows and add mascara on the lashes.
Ø  Use nude, coral or toffee colors on the lips

Please let me know whats your everyday and weekend look this summer

Regards

9 General mistakes made in the name of beauty can affect skin


Hey Lovelies,
Today i am sharing an Important article with all of you. 9 Common Mistakes which can affect our skin .Women are often willing to suffer deprivation or discomfort in the name of beauty, but mistakes are often made and some of them can lead to lasting effects.
Mistake #1 “I’m tired, so I’ll just go to bed”
Disregarding this first rule of beauty is proof that you do not love yourself. Do not be surprised if your skin repays you with irritation, inflammation or, God forbid, pimples. Think of taking down your makeup and the cleansing procedures as relaxing, not exhausting. But be careful not to go too far. Squeaky clean skin is usually suffering from disturbed pH balance and hydro-lipid layer, which, roughly translated, is an open invitation for bacteria and a working order for all sebaceous glands.
Mistake #2 The rosy-cheeks doll
The purpose of blush is to enliven the face and to underline certain features. Some ladies think of it as an anachronism, while others use tons of it in an attempt to sculpt the nose and the oval of the face, while also making the cheeks skinnier. The result is a rosy-cheeked doll. The color of blush should also be taken into consideration. The effect of pink, peach or bronze-hued blush is more natural and elegant. The darker tones of blush have no enlivening effect, but can even make the skin look older.
Mistake #3 Rock-heavy eye lashes
If you have already applied 2-3 layers of mascara and it doesn’t seem to be enough, that means that your mascara is not of the best quality or it has expired. The right way to apply mascara is not to rub it on the lashes, but to follow their curve, evenly spreading the product along their whole length. Be careful with volume mascara. If you apply too much of it to the lower lashes it will begin to crumble and will make you look like a panda. If you do not apply it to the lower lashes you will look pale. Lengthening mascara also has a trick to it – wait for the first layer to dry completely before applying a second layer.
Mistake #4 The shiny face
We should clarify that the shine created by light-reflecting particles in foundation or face powder is not the same as and should not be mistaken with the unpleasant shine of oily skin. The former makes the face look bright and fresh, while the latter makes the face look dirty and untended. Shining of any kind should be avoided in the T-zone. If you wish to look like a runway model, then you will have to master the secrets of bright, glowing skin. You can add cream highlighter or silver face powder to the inner corner of the eyes, the upper lip, the area above the cheekbones and along the hairline.
Mistake #5 Neglecting the brushes and applicators
Applying foundation with your fingers is convenient but it is not always right. Some makeup like blush and eye shadows are better applied with the appropriate tools. This way you can be sure that your makeup is done properly and that you will not look like an enraged Navajo. One of the advantages of applicators is that they use less makeup. Some of them are especially designed to follow the curves of the eyes or face. The round rouge brush for example has a dome-like shape with shorter hairs at the edges. The eyebrow brush, which looks like a tiny slanted hoof gives the eyebrows a natural look.
Mistake #6 Fighting against visible wrinkles
The standard rule of prevention certainly applies here. Wrinkles are much easier to prevent than to treat. The aging process begins not at the age of 25 as was previously thought, but much earlier than that. The oxidation stress, which is a result of free radical action and UV rays, is the culprit. It’s easy to imagine how it works – just visualize a piece of apple browning in contact with air or a work of iron getting rusty. So the best friends of contemporary young ladies are not diamonds but antioxidants.
Mistake #7 The UV victim
You will easily recognize her – she looks like Donatella Versace’s twin sister. There is a difference between an even bronze tan and the skin of a dry prune. Many ladies limit their sun exposure and make up for it in the tanning beds. Their belief is that tanning beds spare them from the dangerous UVB rays of the sun. There is a reason to this, yet you should not visit the solarium more than once a week. When the recommended dose is exceeded, UVA rays can cause aging too.

Mistake #8 Wearing a mask
The attempt to change the color of your complexion with foundation is never effective and can lead you to be mistaken for an actress in the Japanese Kabuki theater  The complexion of your face can be a tone lighter than the rest of your body but never vice versa. Otherwise the face will fall into shadow and suffer disharmony.     Don’t forget to blend your foundation into your skin or you will look as if you’re trying to cover up the scars of plastic surgery.
Mistake #9 Cigarettes have no effect on my beauty
Every smoker should be looking forward to vertical wrinkles on the upper lip. It sounds like a joke but it is true. Scientists are positive – it only takes two years of smoking to transform the skin from young and fresh into greyish, porous and wrinkly. Nicotine is not only bad for your tissues but it also steals vitamin C, which is responsible for collagen production. This is why plastic surgeons forbid smoking before and after surgery. It is a myth that if you quit smoking you will gain weight. In reality it is a hormonal imbalance that causes you to gain weight in some areas and lose weight in other.

Quick Fixes for 6 Beauty Bloopers


Hi Ya Ladies,

Looking perfect is easy if you know how.

Puffy eyes, bubbled up nail polish, lanky strands that refuse to get styled, over-plucked brows that make you look like Ms Spock, no matter how hard you try, beauty blunders are bound to happen. Some are easy to fix, others not so. Here I have compiled six common beauty problems—and their solutions—so that you always look great.
  
Over-zealous eyebrow plucking



You got a bit carried away and ended up with vampishly thin eyebrows. There’s little you can do till they grow back. But you can hasten that by using a hair enhancing serum like FabIndia Seasame Hair Oil or Tatha Argan Oil Hair Serum. Alternatively, try a specialized brow serum like Rogaine or Viviscal. Then start a good multivitamin that contains Biotin such as Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails 3000 mcg of Biotin. This mineral helps speed up hair growth.



Fix it

While you’re waiting for them to grow out, fake a full brow with deftly applied makeup. Use a wax-based eyebrow pencil or pen like Konad Auto Style Eyebrow and make small, soft and defined strokes. For accuracy, sharpen the pencil before each use. Apply in small, hair like lines and then blend. It’s advisable to use brow pencil a shade or two lighter than your hair color for the natural look.


Smudged eyeliner



It’s mid-summer and by mid-afternoon your mascara is running down your cheeks while the eye shadowyou applied so skillfully is creasing like linen. Mascara meltdown is embarrassing and ugly, making you like the Joker in Batman. But hot weather doesn’t have to spell mascara lockdown. There are some foolproof ways of keeping eye makeup intact.

Fix it



Keep an all-in-one makeup remover like Vichy Purete Thermale 3 in 1 One Step Cleanser handy along with a bag of cotton balls. Dab a tiny amount on the cotton or an ear bud to instantly redefine eyeliner and erase smudged eye makeup. Also keep a tube of concealer like Deborah 24Ore Perfect Concealer Swipehandy to touch up wiped away foundation. To prevent future meltdowns, remember this simple trick; always apply a little face powder under the eyes before applying mascara to act as a shield and absorb sweat and oil.


Blotchy, angry skin



It’s easy to bounce back after a week of late nights when you are 20, not so when you hit 30. Splotchy, red skin and an uneven skin tone are often the result of too much drinking, too little sleep and oily food. Start by drinking plenty of water, vegetable juice and coconut water to remove built up toxins. It’s also a good idea to take a natural supplement like Natrol AcaiBerry Weekend Cleanse to flush out toxins, boost antioxidant levels and support cell regeneration.

Fix it



Blotchy skin becomes more obvious when you don’t exfoliate enough to get rid of dead surface cells. Start using a mild daily exfoliating scrub like Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant – Top Pick by Oprah.com to prep your skin for makeup. Then look for an appropriate foundation to mask the splotches. Moisturizing formulas like Revlon Touch & Glow Moisturising Makeup work best for dry skin types while a water based formula like Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation or Lakme Nine To Five Flawless Makeup Foundation is ideal for oily skin. While shopping for the right cover-up, also check the color saturation or amount of pigment in the product. The deeper the pigment the better the camouflage. It’s worth spending a little more because pricier formulas tend to have higher levels of pigment.

In your attempt to cover the offending patches, don’t slather on the formulation. A thick layer of makeup just makes it look cakey. Less is more. So just apply a thin layer and sit back while it dries. If you feel you need more coverage then apply a second thin layer.


Chipped Nail Polish



You’re dressed to the nines. Already late for your girls’ night out when you discover your new nail polish is chipped just as you’re calling for the elevator.

Fix it



Don’t panic! Always keep a nail buff like OPI Emery Square Black handy. Gently buff out the scratch or chip. Then apply a thin coat of the same nail color over the entire nail. Let it dry for a minute before applying a quick-dry top coat like OPI Top Coat to seal the fresh polish. Now dash off to join the party.


Greasy Hair



You’ve woken up late for an all-important client meeting and your hair is lankier than a rat’s tail. There’s no time to shampoo so what’s a girl to do?

Fix it



Before you start tearing out your strands, relax, there are many options depending on your hair type and length. You could use a wide headband to hide the worst. Or try a high ponytail, styling hair bangs with a formula like TIGI Bed Head Foxy Curls High-Def Curl Spray. Or scrimp up very greasy hair into a bun so the limp ends don’t show.

If you have ten minutes but no dry shampoo like TIGI Rockaholic Dirty Secret Dry Shampoo handy, mix together one tablespoon of corn starch, four tablespoons of water and one tablespoon of rubbing alcohol into a small spray bottle. Give it a good shake and spray all over hair especially on the greasy bits. Then run your fingers through strands to distribute the mixture evenly and hit it with the blow-dryer to style as usual. Voila! Your hair looks spanking clean and—even better—oil free. Then go get dressed for that meeting.

Acne attack



You wake up on the morning of adate or friend’s party and find a zit the size of a little hill on your nose. Enough to make any girl recoil in horror but before you decide you’re never going out in public again, try some emergency action.

Fix it



This is time to pull out the big guns. This is no time for a puny concealer. Use a product with enough pigment to hide pimples with just a thin coat. Experts suggest NYX Concealer Jar. But before using it, apply a cube of ice for a minute or two to reduce swelling. Resist the intense urge to flatten the spot because squeezing will simply tear the skin, making it harder to conceal. Experts suggest mixing two shades of concealer to create a custom blend that exactly matches your skin. Blend the edges of the concealed area to create a seamless line with the surrounding skin and touch it up through the day.
