Lipstick for your lips

People notice your lips when you talk, as they listen to your words. You can improve the natural shape and color of your lips with lipstick, lip gloss, and lip pencil. Lipstick adds so much cheer to the face. It has to be used most carefully and neatly to get the best results. You cannot afford to use it in a casual manner. The outline should be neat and well-defined.
Do not give anyone the impression that you have dressed in a hurry, or that you do not know how to apply a lipstick. Do not apply it just for the sake of applying as a mere formality. Always work with patience when applying it on. You need a very good brush, and a few lipsticks covering the basic colors, like soft reds, pinks, hues of orange, etc.
General rules
* For thin lips, use lighter shades.
* For full lips, use darker shades.
* For the day, use lighter shades.
* For the night, use darker shades.
* For complexions which are not fair, avoid using very light shades completely.

    Muted colors like purple, brown, bronze etc. will look good, if you are having big lips.

    -Never use dark colored lipstick, if you have smaller lips.

    -It will be better to apply lipstick with a brush as preferred by professionals. This will help in reducing the amount of lipstick used.

    The colors that suit you are:

    -Shades like wines, berrys and mauves will look great on light blondes. Cappuccino colors will look good on them as well.

    -Shades like corals, apricots, peachy hues etc. will be really good on golden blondes.

    -Olive skinned blondes will look fabulous in warm peach, brown or terracotta shaded lipsticks.

    -Terracottas, cinnamon's and brownish reds will look great on brunettes.

    -Red heads will be best suited to wear warm terracotta colors, cinnamons and peachy browns

    Sometimes lips can become very dry and irritated because of allergy to skin care products, toothpaste or make-up cosmetics. In this case the only way to solve the problem is to throw away the cosmetic you are allergic to and to buy another one. You should choose also lipsticks that contain natural moisturizing ingredients and vitamins, for example smoothing lanoline or vitamin E.

  8. For natural looking lips begin applyling lipliner at the center of your natural upper lip line to define the bow. Then work toward the outer corners to complete the line.

    A clean line of concealer under the eyebrows gently buffed and blended out to accentuate the brow arch. Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream slathered on the lips before bed to rid chapped lips!

Pore shrinking mask recipes from home

A face with large open pores when seen from close quarters doesn’t look so good. While it’s quite common for oily skins to have a tendency towards open pores, an attack of pimples also leaves ugly scars and open pores behind.  Even though the scars may fade away after some time, open pores appear to be more obstinate and hardly show any signs of shrinking.  Age also takes its toll by giving an uneven/pigmented tone to the skin and making the open pores more prominent. Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs. Even resorting to drastic chemical/surgical procedures at the dermatologist’s isn’t quite capable of giving satisfactory results.  Nevertheless, you can try and minimize their appearance at least temporarily with clever makeup and a few natural skin care masks such as these: * Cleanse your face with a mild ...
