How to create smokey eyes :)


1. Apply a cream concealer over your eyelid to create a smooth base for your eyeshadow.
2. Use a pencil liner (black or gray looks best) to trace your top lashline from the inner corner to the outer. Then, use the same pencil to dot between your lower lashes. Smudge both lashlines with a cotton swab or an eyeliner brush.
3. Sweep powder shadow (brown, gray and dark green all work with black or gray liner) over your lid and into your crease, blending the color up and outward, says New York City makeup artist Morgen Schick DeMann.Marie Claire recommends: Morgen Stained Glass Eye Wash in Spruce; Shiseido The Makeup Eye Shadow Brush; Cover Girl Perfect Blend Pencil in Basic Black; Origins Full Story Lush-Lash Mascara in Black.
TIP: To prevent color from fading and give your lids a more shimmery finish, pat a cream shadow over the concealer on your lid first, wait five minutes, then top with a matching powder shadow.
4. Dust a lighter, neutral eyeshadow (such as ivory) over just your browbone.
5. Finish with two coats of black mascara.

Attention, Attention!


5 Things Girls Should NOT TO DO When They Have a BOYFRIEND!

1. Don't be a huge flirt!
Guys love a girl that can flirt, with THEM only! A little to friendly can very easily come across the wrong way! So, when it comes to flirting, show your man all the love! They'll notice, and appreciate it :)
2. Don't pig out!
When it comes to eating, guys aren't to fond of those who can eat more than them! They like their ladies to be well fed, but clean and cute about it! Keep it classy!
3. Make an effort when it comes to Family!
As we all know, family is important to most. But, a guy loves to have a girl he can bring home to mom, and not just to show mom, but to talk to mom! Keep in mind, it's a little overwhelming to hear your whole life story the first time meeting, but it is nice to have someone who shows and effort in getting to know his parents! 
4. Stay out of Drama!
Girls love drama, but I know from experience guys HATE drama! They want to be in the clear at all times.
5. Don't take everything to seriously!

Beautiful Girl


 "Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick."
Gwyneth Paltrow

It's about that time! Time to kick out those bad beauty habits and start taking care of yourself and your skin! 

1. Most importantly, STAY OUT OF THE SUN! 
I can't stress enough just exactly what the sun does to your skin other than simply saying
it will age you ten times as fast! 
2. TAKE IT EASY, ROCK STAR!
Partying is an essential to some, but drinking is always an option!
Alcohol is dehydrating so not only do you get the debilitating hangover, but your
skin will also be robbed of it's dewy glow.
3. BUTT IT OUT.
Smoking is just plain bad for you. But, what exactly does it do you ask?
Smoking constricts your blood vessels, depriving your skin of oxygen and
nutrients needed for cell renewal. It can make people look 10 to 20 years older 
than those who do not smoke. Yuck!

A very important 3!



"Nothing makes a woman more beautiful then the belief that she is beautiful!" 
Sophia Loren

As a woman who loves to get dressed up but loves to be in sweats more than anything, I know I could always a use a few helpful hints on just what a girl must have at all times to make sure she is always in style :)

1. A SEXY DRESS YOU CAN PLAY UP OR TONE DOWN
Whether it's a trip to the opera or a 5 o clock date, it's always nice to have a 
dress that's sexy, stylish, and most of all, requires NO ironing. 
2. A PROFESSIONAL OUTFIT
Whatever your preference: A tailored outfit, or a nice dress, having a professional
outfit will help others know you're someone to be reckoned with.
3. COMFY BUT CHIC CASUAL DUDS
It's important to have fashionable but forgiving clothing, for those days
that you just absolutely don't feel like dressing up.
