Makeup Tips for Blue Eyes

1.jpg

Ahhh…to be a blue eyed babe!  It must be hard having the most beautiful eye color a girl could ask for. Personally, I don’t think there is anything more pretty than seeing a woman who has enhanced her eye color by applying the correct makeup.

Blue eyes can appear dull and flat if you apply the wrong eye makeup.  To prevent your eyes from looking washed out, use contrasting tones to compliment the blue. Always use a light tone as your base color. For a two shade combination, complement your light base color with a dark or medium hue.  If you prefer three colors, use a light, medium and dark tone.

Recommended Colors for Blue Eyes:

Purple

Pinks

Neutral Tones & Bronzes

Woman Had Her Face Photoshopped In More Than 25 Countries To Compare Their Beauty Standards

U.S.-based journalist and photographer Esther Honig came up with an interesting photo project that answers a difficult question in an ingenious way – how can we compare standards of women’s beauty world-wide?

Honig’s solution was brilliantly simple: she sent a portrait photo of herself to freelance Photoshoppers in countries around the world with one request – to make her “beautiful.” Each Photoshopper, be they a professional or an amateur, took their own spin on the assignment, giving Honig (and us) a glimpse at what at least one person in each of these countries considers to be beautiful. Honig’s face subtly (and sometimes not so subtly) shifts, changing form and color as it travels around the world.

Favorite Manicure

We love this mix of matte and shiny. For a modern and unique look mix just a small amount of cornstarch to your polish to make it matte. Apply quickly or else it will start to get clumpy. It may feel like it applies weird and clumpy but as it dries it will smooth itself out. (tip: the more cornstarch the more matte it will turn out!) enjoy!!!

Healthy Skin Matters

Your skin is the organ that comes into contact with the rest of the world. It holds body fluids in, preventing dehydration, and keeps harmful microbes  out—without it, we would get infections. Your skin is full of nerve endings that help you feel things like heat, cold, and pain. If you couldn’t feel these things, you could get badly hurt and not even know it!

Why is healthy skin important?

Since your skin plays such an important role in protecting your body, you should keep it as healthy as you can. This will help you keep from getting sick or having damage to your bones, muscles, and internal organs.

There are so many products out there to help keep your skin moist, fight acne and aging. Stay tuned to our blog for tips on how to have the healthiest skin today!
