Beauty Quickie: Making your eyes pop as well as look more alluring is as simple as putting down the brown and black eyeliner. Line eyes with blue eyeliner to give peepers a bigger and brighter appearance. The blue tint will make the whites of your eyes appear brighter thus giving you dazzling, seductive eyes.
Beauty Sleep
The number one way to look beautiful is completely free yet many women still fail to get the all important 7-8 hours of beauty sleep. Busy schedules and obligations can make getting rest seem like one of life’s greatest feats. However, here are a few reasons to give you motivation to hit the sack.
Not getting enough sleep can lead to bags as well as dull and sagging skin. This occurs because lack of sleep causes blood vessels to dilate which in turn creates dark eye circles. A lack of sleep will literally age you quicker than you are naturally supposed to age. If that is not scary enough you must remember that sleep is a time for the skin to repair, restore and re-balance. Therefore, get your rest to maintain a youthful appearance.
Streetstyle: Ripped Distressed Jeans
Drop a mean looking outfit as temperatures outside continue to drop low. That may have just sounded like the hardest album in 2014 about to hit the music scene, but we’re firm believers that the right jeans can go just as hard. When it comes to denim always remember that style is just as important as the right fit.
We have loved all the ripped jeans we have spotted from the runway to the streets. They were apart of the Triton 2014 Winter Womens Runway Collection during Brazil Fashion Week and a pair were seen on supermodel Joan Smalls while walking the streets of Paris. With the ripped jean style you can be more conservative with just a few slight rights or go very bold with huge holes and shreds. Complete an outfit by pairing them with a slouchy tee-shirt, sweater/sweatshirt, leather jacket and heels or boots.
Cleanse Makeup Brushes With Baby Shampoo
Beauty Quickie: Sometimes makeup brushes can take a beating causing fibers to fall out or be damaged by harsh detergents. Prevent this by using a gentle shampoo in order to can clean brushes and keep them in shape as well as ready for use. Either lather up the brushes with the shampoo or allow them to soak in a cup. Add a small amount of baby shampoo to water then swish your brushes around and allow them to sit in the cup. After a bit rinse the makeup brushes and gently dry them.
Protect Feet With Deodorant
Beauty Quickie: This amazing product helps keep things high and dry, but can also be used to give your feet protection when breaking in a new pair of shoes. Simply swipe on a layer of deodorant on the bottoms of your feet before slipping on the shoes. Thanks to the powdery finish of the deodorant your feet will be shielded from rubbing as well as blisters.
Travel Monday: Help! I’m Wrinkled and I need a Iron!
Traveling the world and seeing the sights can be fun beyond words, especially if you remembered to pack everything that you needed to make the trip more enjoyable. Vacation or not most of us want to look our best, who knows we might just get our groove back right? Therefore, what can be done if you’re in a pinch when it comes to walking the streets of your destination location wrinkle-free?
A good alternative to a regular iron is using a flat iron on low heat to iron your fashions. Always start at a lower heat and gradually adjust the heat up for really unruly wrinkles. Make sure the flat iron is clean and free of any oils (because let’s face it we use it for our hair LOL) before beginning.
Aloe Vera Doubles As Makeup Primer

Therefore, finding natural solutions to this issue is best in order to stave off any unwanted reactions to makeup. Aloe Vera boast moisturizing, anti-inflammatory as well as anti-bacterial properties that will give a smooth foundation for other cosmetics to be built upon and control oil. Besides, keeping shine to a minimum Aloe Vera will also keep your skin well hydrated all day!
