Mascara 101: Mastering Layering

Janet-Jacksonfeat-Eyes-Beauty

Besides an eyelash curler you will need mascara in order to make your eyes really pop. The goal is to layer mascara coat by coat which in turn will make your lashes look full and luscious. However, if applied wrong you may notice more clumping than a beautiful pair of voluminous lashes.

Ciara Eye MakeupWelcome to Mascara class 101, where the most important thing to remember is that a little patience will go a long way. How so? Think about this: If you were constructing a home and were laying down a cement foundation, would you allow the cement to dry first before building upon it? Of course you would, for if the cement was still wet the foundation could become uneven or clumpy if worked on before it was completely dry. This same principle applies when it comes to layering mascara.

It is best to allow enough time to pass between each coat or layer of mascara so that the formula can be set. From there you can build upon each layer until you achieve the desired look or effect and avoid any clumps. Alright, you got it ladies, class is dismissed.

Beware of Greasy Hair Products

Black Women Hairstyles

In the hair world it is important to remember that all products are not created equal. Moreover, you may purchase products that may add sheen or make your tresses look healthy; however, the benefits might just end right there. Greasy hair products can add moisture, but they clog the pores on your scalp and can weigh locks down. Instead, it is best to use conditioners with essential oils, such as grape seed oil, that moisturize without leaving an oily residue.

Did you know that one of the main causes of headaches is dehydration? Drinking plenty of water may be the solution to healing or even preventing a headache. Some other natural remedies include: walking, avoiding caffeine and consuming honey at mealtime. Partaking of honey at each of your meals is beneficial since honey contains minerals (potassium/magnesium) which will help relax arteries as well as allow more blood to flow to the brain.

Beauty Shot: 2014 Golden Globes Lupita Nyong’o

golden globes 2014 lupita nyong o

Lupita Nyong’o looked every bit of a Hollywood superstar as she graced the red carpet at the 2014 Golden Globes. As if her caped Ralph Lauren dress wasn’t enough of an attention-grabber, Lupita’s makeup look for the night was just as stunning. Even though it was quite understated, it allowed her natural beauty to shine through. Lupita’s eyes were accentuated with eyeliner while her lip color was matched to the shade of her glamorous gown. We loved the fresh, youthfulness of her makeup that was a testament to all that less can truly be more.
