Beauty Quickie: Always keep an extra set of mascara wands on hand to take the clump out of your lashes. Mascara formulas have come a long way, but still even the best ones will need a helping hand every now and then. Before your mascara completely dries take a clean mascara wand and comb through your eyelashes. Not only will this ensure that your lashes do not clump, but will create a fuller more lush eye look.
Beauty Quickie: Want full, voluminous eyelashes but your hairs are a little on the thin and sparse side? Add and create bulk before applying mascara by dusting your lashes with translucent powder.

Beauty Quickie: When doing your beauty shopping never be afraid to flip over a product to know what exactly is in it. If you want to look your best, you have to use the best. Unfortunately, not all cleansers are created equal and some will give your skin more assistance than others. If you are in the market for a skin cleanser because you are prone to acne then always look for a product that contains benzoyl peroxide or salycilic acid.
Don’t knock it until you try it! Avocados are another power hair food that can benefit your tresses in numerous ways. This week we have decided to write about a few foods that can be applied to your hair to help give it a powerful boost.
Here are just a few of the many benefits that can be derived from avocados:
Avocados contain oils that are very similar to the oils that our skin produces which is why the moisturize provided is so perfect for our tresses. This power hair food is also great for our curly/wavy hair girls who wish to gain a little more control of their strands. Since avocado smooths the hair shaft, frizz is decreased giving hair more manageability.
So then, how can this food be utilized on hair? Take a very ripe avocado and mash it up well in order to form a deep conditioning treatment. Apply the mashed avocado to your locks and let it sit for half an hour before rinsing. There you have it ladies, sometimes the best products are found in nature!
Beauty Quickie: Prepping your skin for makeup is essential for achieving a flawless makeup look. Never ever skip hydrating your skin with moisturizer or priming it with a primer. Dry flaky skin will not allow makeup to lay nicely and primer will give your cosmetics a nice foundation to build upon and create a protective barrier between your skin and makeup.
Fashion doesn’t always have to be all pain and no gain. This season you do not need to freeze your couture tail off in the name of fall/winter style. Case in point, some may feel that a hat may detract or lessen the drama of their ensemble. However, when done correctly hats are a great accessory to not only keep you warm, but fully complete your outfit.
Being a Cheap Can Be Chic girl beanies are one of my favorite hats to wear once the temperature takes a dip. They are very reasonably priced and look great with sweaters, trench coats, fur and matches well with scarves. Moreover, since they are normally solid color accessories you don’t have to worry about a blending issue. A beanie will easily enhance yet not dominate an already great look.
