Hate when your applying mascara and then -whoops!- you slip and
Next time your applying mascara and get it on your skin, don't freak! It comes off in seconds once it's dry.
get mascara under your eye? Don’t rush to clean it up just yet, it turns out waiting a little bit can help.
When mascara is still wet trying to get it off your skin can just make it worse, it can smudge it everywhere! But once mascara is dry it becomes flacky and by just rubbing it with your sleeve (that’s what i dp for quick public fix-ups) it easly comes off.
So keep your skin mascara free, with this little tip.

With 2010 coming you want to look fresh and ready for a new start. So say goodbye to last years smoky eyes and orange lips, and get ready for the new looks of the future!
Strong brows.
This picture shows strong brows perfectly, and it even shows metallic eyes too!
Over plucked brows are just so blah! The look now? Think and framing. To get perfect brows take a pencil and line it up with were your eyes stop, that is were your brow should end. Then look straight forward and line a pencil up to the end of your pupil, that is were your brow should curve. After that just fade out to a tip. Always remember to only pick stray hairs on the bottom of your brow, never the top.
Metallic eyes.
You don't have to make your metallic eyes this crazy to have them be fabulous.
The cutest new look for eyes right now is all in the metal. If you have darker skin choose a deep gold or copper, but if you have a lighter skin tone go for silver or light gold. One look that I like to use is a light silver on my lids and a deep gold on my crease. It makes my eyes pop!
Plum lips.
Plum lips are just oh so glamorous!
Say goodbye to boring nude and pink lips, because plum is the new thing. It’s so surprising and flattering that it will turn heads (don’t worry, I mean in a good way!). If your afraid to try it out wear it to a party first. After you see everyone’s reactions you can decide if you want to wear your purple lipstick again, or not.
Bronzed cheeks.
Rihanna looks healthy, and beautiful with her bronzed cheeks.
Bronzed, sun-kissed cheeks are all the rage with winter. Choose a shimmery one 2 shades darker then your natural skin tone to keep from looking like a clown. To apply it right sweep it up from the side of your nose up to the sides of your cheek bones.
So look absolutely stunning this new year, with these fabulous new looks.
Cheapest lipgloss, that I love!

So you walk in to Sephora, all excited, and you find… 40 dollar lipgloss. WHAT? You can’t believe
I love lip glosses that come in a little tube, they're easy to keep in your jeans pocket, and if you loose htem you don't feel as bad.
your eyes! I mean 40 dollars for a lipgloss!? You walk out of the store, your head drooping, defeated. Sound like you? I know I’ve been surprised by the mind blowing prices in that store. But lipgloss is neccesary in the winter monthes, not only to keep you looking fly, but to keep your lips soft and smooth. So were do you find the best affordable lipgloss? Let’s take a walk in your local Walgreens.
Yesterday I headed down to Walgreens to get a new shampoo and conditioner, but decided I needed a new lipgloss while I was down there. I walked past the rows of covergirl, maybeline, and Lorreal, all the lipglosses were still to pricey! And then in a little rack with the big words “DEAL ALERT!” on it, I thought I might have found the one. I looked down and discovered “Squeeze’ n Shine” by jordana, for $1.99. Why not, I thought? 10 minutes later I was driving home and took off the cap to smell the lipgloss. YUM! It smelled just like candy! And it even tasted good, not nasty and sour tasting like other lipglosses can be. I think I met have found the most perfect lipgloss ever!
So shine this winter with super tasy, super shiny, super cheap lipgloss!

Lash curlers can be a real hassle. They can cost tons of money (seriously, who needs a gold plaited lash curler!?), and have you ever
Who knew that by just changing the way you applied mascara could leave you with wonderfully curled lashes.
piched your eyelid skin by accident? Not fun! And I’m sure we’ve all heard the “hot spoon against your lashes trick”, but ig ou guys are as clusmy as me, you probably don’t want to be pointing a hot spoon at your eye! Talk about an embarrising trip to the emergencey room. Plus has that tip even worked for any of you? But I have a new little tip that won’ possibly lead to you stabbing yourself in the eye, and works!
Try applying your mascara a little differently-
- Take the mascara brush and place it at the base of your lashes.
- Wiggle it a little, this will coat and reach every lash.
- Now twirl the brush upwards, spinning it as you go.
- Next, well there is not next, your done!
See wasn’t that easy? And mosly risk free? So live saftely, and with curled lashes, by just applying your mascara slightly differently.

I hate when I get a pimple, it’s one of the most annoying, confidence-busting things in the world. It makes me
Fake beautiful skin with foundation and concealer.
self conscious and instantly brings me down. What makes it worse is that I can’t figure out how to hide the little sucker, well, not until now.
Here are the easy steps
- Wash your face with warm water, not hot, that will only irritate the pimple.
- Rub heated extra virgin olive oil in to your skin for a few minutes
- Wash off the extra virgin olive oil and dab (not scrub!) your face dry with a clean towl or paper towl.
- Next take some oil free moisteriser and apply it ont the blemish.
- Cover the blemish in oil free foundation.
- After apply concealer with a pointed brush. If you don’t have one apply with a clean finger tip.
- Keep applying foundation and concealer until the blemish is covered. Remember, try not to over apply, chances are no one else notices except for you.
So if you don’t have beautiful clear skin, fake it with a little foundation.

Feeling like you need a pretty boost? Well I have a tip that makes your lips bigger and your eyes bigger in under 10 seconds
Just some eyeshadow here and there, and bam, you could be a model!
Just take out some gold or white eyeshadow (depending on your skin tone, if your lighter skinned go for white eyeshadow, if your skin is darker go for gold), and pat a little on your cupids bow (that part of your top lip that dips down) and the inner corners of each eye, so its touching the sides of your nose. Gasp, when did a supermodel get here! 😉
Really quick halloween ideas!
Posted on: October 31, 2009
I love halloween but since I know how hard it can be to choose and how halloween tends too sneak up on you (it’s in 1 day!) I think that all you procrastinating ladies nead a break, and here it is. Oh and all these fabulous costumes? You can make them just with things you already own!
- Be a hippy!
Be a chic hippy, not a goof.
Take your hair and put it into a super high side ponytail, you can add a bandana if you like. Then grap any tie die shirt you have on hand (or you can make one with friends, so fun and goofy!) add a pair of low cut boyfriend jeans, belt them with a scarf, add a big old smile and bam, hippy alert!
2. Be a vampire!
This picture shows the leading charcater on yet another vampire show, "vampire diaries".
With all this twilight craze vampires are H.O.T. this year, no wonder since everyone in those movies is insanely cute! But back to the point just add some thick black liner, black tights and a black or jean skirt, any pretty old top, and your a fabulous vampire. To see a more desribtive video by the amazing Michelle Phan click here.
3. Be a spy!
Just because it's cute.
Dress in all black, and some killer high heels really complete it. Add some glam 50’s marilyn monroe makeup wouldn’t go amis either!
So don’t look like you just threw something together last minute, look glam and chic, even if you only made your costume the day before halloween!

Want a great look for day and night? Try golden lined eyes.
It instantly brightens and makes your eyes bigger, but only if you do it right.
(Day)
- First of all find a goldener eyeliner or gold eyeshadow.
- If it’s eyeshadow, learn how to turn it it into eyeliner.
- Next line you top lids in a thick line that touches your lashes.
- Bring the pencil down and line your inner corners, smudging under your eyes.
(Night)
- Follow the first 4 steps.
- Take a Burgundy and smudge it into your crease and bring up under your brow bone.

This look is perfect for any party, or just hanging out over the weekend.
Vanessa loves gold eyeliner!
