How to Apply EyeShadow Correctly!

By: Ashley Romos

Applications of applying Eyeshadows
The following steps are followed in the application of eyeshadow shades:

1. Using a fine, blunt-ended brush, gently apply the base colour to the entire lid from the inside to the outside comer and from the base of the lashes to the eyelid crease

2. If the eyes need extra definition,a deeper shade is blended into the crease line. This gives depth to the eyes

3. The brow bone is highlighted with a light shade. This gives the eyes a wide, open look., The colour is applied to the most prominent area and blended up towards the brow and down to' where the contour curves down, toward the eyelid creases

Before using them on the lids, always test the colours on the back of the hand to see the intensity. You can use even 3-4 colours, provided. they are blended well. Remember, pale tones emphasize, while deep sooty shades de-fine.

STOP! Think Before You Copy Style!!

By: Jonathan Manning

Ever turn on the television and become instantly infatuated with the latest celebrity hair style sported by Jennifer Aniston or other highly-emulated celebrities? If so, you are not alone. In fact, most fashion trends actually begin after a celebrity has worn them and the same is true when it comes to celebrity hair styles.

There are good reasons on both sides of the equation when it comes to choosing a celebrity hair style. For some, a celebrity hair style can be the perfect answer when they find themselves in a style slump. For others, choosing a celebrity hair style can be a big mistake. Here are just a few of the pros and cons when it comes to celebrity hair styles.

Celebrity Hair Styles - Why you should copy
1. Celebrities have access to some of the most talented and highest paid beauty professionals in the industry. While you may not be able to afford a consult with one of these style legends yourself, you have the perfect opportunity to see and emulate their work with a celebrity hair style.

2. For the most part, celebrities are on the cutting edge of fashion. When you choose a celebrity hair style, you do not have to worry about looking dated or being out of style.
3. C'mon let's face it. We look up to celebrities because they always look fashionable and beautiful. If you are looking for a celebrity hair style to pull your look together, then there is no better place to look than to the stars.

Celebrity Hair Styles - Why not to copy
1. Celebrities are seen by virtually everybody, and when a new celebrity hair style causes a sensation, you can be sure that everyone will be trying to emulate it. So, while you may be thinking that you are going to look sensational with your new celebrity hair style, you may end up looking like a copy cat.

2. Celebrities do not have to choose easy styles because they have hair stylists and make-up artists solely dedicated to making them look beautiful. On the other hand, you probably do not. So, be careful not to choose a celebrity hair style that will have you pulling out your hair when you have to spend hours keeping it up.

3. Stylists to the stars choose particular celebrity hair styles for their clients because they are perfect for their face shape and type and texture of hair. Not everybody can pull off every style. Be careful not to choose a celebrity hair style that makes you look ridiculous.

While there are pros and cons to everything, choosing a celebrity hair style should be something that you give some thought to before making a final decision. Not everyone is worth millions, but you can look like you are if you choose your celebrity hair styles wisely.
