I always look forward to watching because it motivates me to stand taller, wear heels, eat better and try harder with my own beauty regime. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here is a little sneak peek video to watch of this year's show:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/MsMoi5VtKJE?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Don't be too hard on yourself ... these girls have advantages beyond good genes to looking this wonderful: stylists, professional makeup artists, extra hair, and perfect lighting! There's a reason their call time is 9am for an 8pm show! It takes alot of effort to look that good! </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Here's a few of their tricks: </u></b></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">HAIR</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">What you might not realize is that most of the Victoria Secret models are wearing hair extensions. Models' hair is typically damaged from the constant products and styling required for multiple photo shoots and appearances. Watch this video to see how they are matching up extensions for one of the models, at minute 7:08 to 7:30. Most of us don't have stylist to help us every day so read on to learn about a new design hair extension that anyone can put on themselves in less than 30 seconds.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/A1yGRUHTSbY?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The best human hair in extensions to buy is REMY hair, it is 100% real and cuticle correct meaning the cuticles all lay in the same direction which makes it soft, silky and less apt to tangle. Because it's REAL hair, so you can color it for a perfect match to your own, but a word of advice - because this hair is already processed you do not want to lighten, only deposit color. Lowlights, toner or all over color. Unless you can find a perfect match I suggest taking it to your stylist to color for you.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Real hair is also measured by weight. For my own hair which is long, somewhat fine but lots of it, I find that 120 grams is the right amount to add fullness and body.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">If you take care of your hair with mild, sulphate free shampoos and avoid blow dryers, your hair should last from 4 months to a year at least.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Clip in extensions are great, but they can damage your own hair sometimes and the tracks can be hard to hide so people might notice.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My favorite hair extension design is called a halo and it is literally a whole set of extensions on a transparent wire which requires no glue, no clips and gives no damage to your own hair. It literally takes less than a minute to put on and you just pull your own hair over top to hold it in. You can shake your head up and down - side to side, and it doesn't come off!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here I am getting glammed up with my Halo Hair Crown prior to my own Victoria Secret-esque shoot.

First an all over color and then a second layer or contour bronzer. For the second step you will want to add deeper color to the sides of your stomach - this is to make the love handles disappear. (Use this same concept for slimmer thighs) Then flex your muscles and make a line down the center of your abs and finish with horizontal lines to define your muscle tone.</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_gIcVKzjusP_TG96qeWsMPm7l77DGCkYzDsboOS4PXazZZzwCC0c1z1ZLh9qwJ0bPw-4MhL9RvnygTtzWLITCzLYRAuR_w3CfkY2Y9_ebkUJFss2rVlp8MYimLT9vTafWSQHFCXUY4F-y/s1600/s1529767-main-hero.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_gIcVKzjusP_TG96qeWsMPm7l77DGCkYzDsboOS4PXazZZzwCC0c1z1ZLh9qwJ0bPw-4MhL9RvnygTtzWLITCzLYRAuR_w3CfkY2Y9_ebkUJFss2rVlp8MYimLT9vTafWSQHFCXUY4F-y/s200/s1529767-main-hero.jpg" width="200" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My favorite self tanners are St Tropez and <a href="http://www.sephora.com/phenomenal-2-3-week-tan-mousse-P379476">Phenomenal by Vita Liberata </a>(the world's first 2-3 week tan!), for bronzer use <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=prod370008&categoryId=cat80080">Lorac's Tantalizer</a> - especially wonderful to add some shine down the front of your shins.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">PERFECT LIGHT</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We don't always have control over this, but one thing that makeup artists always make sure to do is add highlights to our face with light reflecting products, often using 2 different colors of foundation to contour the face.

I have no idea why, but this trick gives an optical illusion of bigger more kissable lips!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">DE-BLOAT</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Strictly limit sodium. and drink lots of water to flush out toxins. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Eating can be as simple as fruits and vegetables as long as you stay clear from gassy veggies like broccoli, brussel sprouts and cauliflower. And avoid dairy and starches. Read a few more in depth tips on how to de-bloat <a href="http://facethis.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-de-bloat-after-vacation.html">{HERE}</a></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">SKIP the GYM </span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">One thing every one of these Victoria Secrets girls' will tell you is that they work out every. single. day. But models don't hit it hard core, many do Pilates, yoga and jogging. They tone, and watch what they eat so their weight doesn't fluctuate. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">If you're headed to the beach in your bikini and want your thighs to look their thinnest, skip the heavy weights the day before. Hitting the iron too hard can make lactic acid build up and make your muscles temporarily swell. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18352336750213701424noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319351005119188596.post-12668855348434473042013-11-13T14:48:00.000-08:002013-11-18T23:56:27.469-08:00Finding your Fashion Style without a Personal Stylist!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidJYqODebC0tVIdwsXlqcB2vnyBbw85vQDNGVhLcBwh2Xlx37_H17FYYg0gOOISVk91ZB7z36fKahJCasJQEo_y5SfjX2SBntdsJ3hTiALMsr3L6qGGAJ8PVbIfBSldw3CNwZLXFe919qu/s1600/bigstock-ZAGREB-CROATIA--MARCH---Fa-44692567.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidJYqODebC0tVIdwsXlqcB2vnyBbw85vQDNGVhLcBwh2Xlx37_H17FYYg0gOOISVk91ZB7z36fKahJCasJQEo_y5SfjX2SBntdsJ3hTiALMsr3L6qGGAJ8PVbIfBSldw3CNwZLXFe919qu/s640/bigstock-ZAGREB-CROATIA--MARCH---Fa-44692567.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /><h2><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As a model there are a few things you pick up walking in show after show. Each designer's goal is to make their clothing stand out so models are sent down the runway looking somewhat the same, with usually these three things kept constant:</span></span></h2><h2><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large; font-weight: normal;">HAIRSTYLE</span></h2><h2><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">MAKEUP</span></span></h2><h2><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">SHOES </span></span></h2><h2><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So it makes sense then that you could use this strategy in reverse, to stand out. In other words, regardless of whatever clothing designer you are wearing, lose the model uniformity by developing your own personal style as simply as changing your hair, makeup and shoes! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large; font-weight: normal;">I recently sat down with All Parenting writer Molly Smith to share these ideas in depth and the simple ways to develop a signature style from a model mom's perspective.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can read the entire interview and all my tips <a href="http://www.allparenting.com/my-style/articles/969315/create-your-own-signature-style">{HERE}</a></span></span></h2><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.allparenting.com/my-style/articles/969315/create-your-own-signature-style"><img border="0" height="106" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6KmAta1blHE99WSBIJcRAff9PiDWIuwIIYe-PXFrjSdVicYwNIxz___79vZHpRcmulwOzODJbOfRp0vSAWRUUPCZOvt62o2iXWAPTiMejyIOtjQa-VWDEQ6QxjfqVaiLpxem1okKo436Q/s400/all+parenting.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large; font-weight: normal;">My best advice ... always, always, always,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b style="font-style: italic;">"Dress for the part you want to have and never get lazy with this!"</b></span></h2><div style="font-size: medium; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="font-size: medium; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Working out is an important part of my daily routine but it's important not to get so comfortable in workout clothes that you end up sitting in spandex at lunch with your girlfriends.

Sculpting your face <i>without surgery,</i> is simple to do if you understand how and what products to use. You literally can transform your face with this magical illusion.</b></span></div><br /><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Until recently this maneuver was reserved for A listers who could afford celebrity makeup artists who have long understood the purpose of doing so, but there's no reason that the rest of us need be kept in the dark. I wrote about how to DIY in my book by using your face shape as a guide with a specific tutorial. If you want to fine tune your skills as per your face shape check out Chapter 6 of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Face-This-photographers-artists-ebook/dp/B004M8SYCC/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2">Face This: Real Advice from Real Models available for only $7.99 {HERE}</a>, not to mention all the great photo and posing tricks you will learn.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But basically the concept is simple. An oval face shape is what you are trying to emulate, so you want to contour areas outside of a centered oval. Contouring will make areas recede.

I'll be doing more televised segments about all these, but yesterday I got the chance to talk about the importance of <b><i>posing</i></b> for Arizona Midday - take a look here:</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/XsbQh-huK1M?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The skinny arm on the hip trick is completely overused on the red carpet because it does incredible things for women ... smaller waist, longer legs and creates curves. It's best if you choose the arm closet to the lens of the camera for this trick and remember to lower your shoulder. However, if you don't want to look like a teapot in all your photos, you can get the same effect if you understand why this pose works.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The basic cheat being used here isn't the hand on the hip, it's the bent elbow and separation of the body and arm, that makes this work. If must have light between or the width of your arms next to your body will make you look bigger than you actually are! You don't have to over-exaggerate it every time to get the benefit of this trick. Simply put a slight bend to your elbow and pull your arms away from your body. Or hold on to something, a purse, a drink, a pocket .... It will make a massive difference in your pictures.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Placement of the hands is key. A model rarely shows the back of her hands. The reason? They aren't pretty and they look big. The sides are much prettier and dainty. Secondly, never clump your fingers together, instead let fingers relax and be apart.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">One of the biggest mistakes women do is place their hands lower than they should when working this pose. If you do, the part of your body you will draw attention to is your hips, the widest area of your body. Instead cheat the hands up a little higher on your waist and this will give you the illusion of longer legs ... Nothing wrong with that!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Most of the time you will want to keep the weight of your body on your back foot, however if you need to fake some curves you can do what I did in the top photo and keep your weight on your front leg instead or try popping your hip toward the camera.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The other important thing to do when standing for a photo is to angle your body to the camera. We must create the angle, because the lens of the camera will flatten you out to a 2D version of yourself and make you look wider than you are if you don't! So angle yourself to the lens of the camera pointed at you. The worst thing you can do is stand front and center to the lens. This is why people say the camera adds 10 pounds. Face the camera and place your hips and feet at a 2 or 10 o'clock position to it. Then create a smaller waistline by turning your face to the lens, twisting yourself without moving your feet. Ahaha - instantly you have created a slimmer waistline too!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTpqshgwq_YSI7WhDmynpNi1fQ9p8dCFa2NreI2frSJ5M3XIX2H3ldPmACvsbGAWkG-6B5JVkg9Q4BLzWNBT1N95hFsDKlCsyNI3uV9CW9m9S8BQQfx-Rmmy8G0QiiGokkiUp_7__WHjcy/s1600/taylorcross.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><img border="0" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTpqshgwq_YSI7WhDmynpNi1fQ9p8dCFa2NreI2frSJ5M3XIX2H3ldPmACvsbGAWkG-6B5JVkg9Q4BLzWNBT1N95hFsDKlCsyNI3uV9CW9m9S8BQQfx-Rmmy8G0QiiGokkiUp_7__WHjcy/s640/taylorcross.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Practice. Practice. Practice. The mirror is your best friend and a perfect tool to teach you how to develop your own signature pose. Like I said in this video, if you try to emulate Taylor Swift's cross legged go to pose without checking yourself first, you may just end up taking a photo that looks more like you have to pee your pants instead of a young goddess with long legs.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally, with social media and sites like Instagram and Facebook, it's nearly impossible to get out of taking a group shot now and then, assuming you have a life outside of the world wide web. To get your best group shots just keep in mind that anything closest to the camera will look the biggest. If this happens to be you, just take a step back or hide a part of you behind the person next to you. And never get sandwiched between two people and let your arms flatten next to your body. Just remember the tips above and try to work in a slight angle and to keep some space between your body and arm for great pics on girls night out!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">So many pictures, so little time ...

Fashion Week just ended. So it makes perfect sense that we charge forward thinking about what's going to be on trend going forward. And Pantone, the world's renowned authority on color forecasting just announced that the "IT" color for Spring will be <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;">DAZZLING BLUE </span></b>! </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Looking at the entire palette, there seems to be a shift happening.

So it should have come as no surprise when Jersey Shore star, Snooki revealed in her book <i>Confessions of a Guidette,</i> that if she can't get to a spa, she'll put <b>kitty litter on her face</b>. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Well, I thought this wacky beauty advice was worth investigating and as it turns out there is some truth to what she says, as long as you are using kitty litter that is made of bentonite clay. Only $2.50 for a huge bag ... this will last you a long time!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Bentonite clay is the main ingredient in mud masks used at luxurious spas around the world. It is a natural antioxidant that's great for oily or acne prone skin, and because it is a very absorbent volcanic clay, it pulls toxins form the skin and clean out pores, making them appear smaller. It also acts as an exfoliant which helps in anti-aging and cell turnover.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW6w9h-L0n5br6ryUgePNHPY8iLLVO6pBH80SXrFzVjqhG_0l32R7pyhkfuoH4iSYf5ssNyvn1uYBIPoRpho9McOjPCwvv1jp9LIf1vqLDDnzXt-dyHqtLRhOSQpI_vno0tDBTTeaPl0hJ/s1600/%253AIMG_5655.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW6w9h-L0n5br6ryUgePNHPY8iLLVO6pBH80SXrFzVjqhG_0l32R7pyhkfuoH4iSYf5ssNyvn1uYBIPoRpho9McOjPCwvv1jp9LIf1vqLDDnzXt-dyHqtLRhOSQpI_vno0tDBTTeaPl0hJ/s640/%253AIMG_5655.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">To make the clay mask yourself, it couldn't be easier - Just add water!

Flexing during the photo is good but it takes some practice to keep your face soft and pretty at the same time. Never forget to model with the face and confidence because no matter how hot your body looks, this is what will make your photo sparkle, draw a viewer in, and is the ultimate secret to a beautiful photograph. </span></div></div></div></div></blockquote><br /><blockquote style="text-align: left;" type="cite"><div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #7f6000;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Get a faux tan.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: small;"> </span></span></b></span></li></ul><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It’s true that a spray tan can be visually slimming in photos.

font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>One of the secrets in taking a great photograph is by always knowing where your light source is and getting in the most flattering light available, but there's a way to add light to your face too with makeup that makes your skin appear radiant and lifted when applied in some strategic places! </b></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It’s inevitable that with birthdays, our skin begins to sag, creating jowls and bags, so it's important to begin using highlighters, illuminizers, concealers - anything with light reflecting properties in precise, but subtle places that will play tricks to make anyone looking at you view your face with an upward glance instead, in keeping with a youthful appearance.</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The secret is making sure that whatever you are using is pearlized and luminescent, not sparkly or metallic and can be as simple as that white-piink-gold shimmery eye shadow that you probably have in an old makeup palette. You want to think of adding "highlights" to your face.</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Many of us already use this trick in the inner corner of the eyes and under the brow, but it is also important to use these same light reflecting principles on top of the highest part of our eyebrow arch. Not just under the eyebrow but a touch of light on top of the brow line to instantly draw anyone’s glance at you upward for an instant eye lift! </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we age there is also a hollowing that seems to occur in the area outside the corner of the eye. This is why you don't want any eye-shadow to live below the outer corner of the eye. This too, can be a perfect place to highlight. Plus, reserve any heavy eyeliner for only the upper eyelid, to keep attention away from any under eye bags.</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My all time favorite, most versatile product to use for this is YSL's Touche Eclat. It is one of the most popular buys in the beauty industry, but honestly one of the most misunderstood products even though it is legendary! It lives a dual life often bought as a concealer, when it's actually a highlighter and skin brightener. That's why I love it though - it works under the eye to reflect light and minimize dark circles, highlights and covers - it's especially great in your purse for touch ups.</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLZJfVraRMVAJvBgO2zqS-Wf5MyP8DKZC9vnZLPnAh2RQbRpd2V46dSrl1WrHBU1V0EB8FIgSbhaNDPkIEGgy2EzcjUZLJQt5yLtK73D597LSGHqO-2wyVTDviyZY5OR5tNq4BChfRIJI/s1600/ToucheE.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" height="375" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLZJfVraRMVAJvBgO2zqS-Wf5MyP8DKZC9vnZLPnAh2RQbRpd2V46dSrl1WrHBU1V0EB8FIgSbhaNDPkIEGgy2EzcjUZLJQt5yLtK73D597LSGHqO-2wyVTDviyZY5OR5tNq4BChfRIJI/s400/ToucheE.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: right;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">photo via glam.com</span></td></tr></tbody></table><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Aging literally sucks the life, or collagen, right out of your cheekbones with the apples of your cheek appearing lower, pulling your face down. We must apply our makeup differently as we age, especially blush. Using little circles of blush on the apples of your cheeks will only highlight the situation, so sweep blush from the highest part of your cheekbones up toward the temples, or hairline, in a “C” like shape to bring the eye into an upward focus. Warm pinks and peach will make you look youthful. I really love the cream blushes and stains because powders tend to settle into fine lines.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For a slimmer nose, you can contour using bronzer down the sides and a bit of highlighter down the center to accentuate. And I always hit the tip of my nose with the last sweep from my brush of bronzer or blush to give the illusion of an ever so slightly (shorter) button nose. By the way, for those of you who have bought into the Pinnochio fairy tale that your nose grows as you age, I want you to know that your nose doesn't grow once you become an adult. However, it can change as you age or droop when elastin and collagen break down. Also in pregnancy noses can swell and appear wider due to sinus inflammation and weight gain.</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Finally, youthfulness is associated with those bee stung lips, but careful with the fillers or you might look end up looking like a duck. Instead, line the upper lip with a pencil in the same pinky/nude shade as your natural lip, but instead of outlining the cupid’s bow perfectly, draw straight across it and blur the line with your finger. I don’t know why this little trick works exactly but it adds fullness to your lip line naturally! Finish with a rosy pink lipstick ...everyone looks youthful and good in this color!</span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tightlining - Another trick to make your eyes stand out <b><a href="http://facethis.blogspot.com/2011/12/how-to-tightline-your-eye.html">CLICK {HERE}</a></b> to read how!</span></span><br /><div><br /></div></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18352336750213701424noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319351005119188596.post-26707781547115260492013-06-24T21:20:00.000-07:002013-11-18T23:56:28.207-08:00Wedding Day tips to be Picture Perfect - Nano Gold Technology What it is and Why You'll want to Use It!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNS0rp_qB0ZMWvFuNEZ0m_sVEaZPKV1KpUwyGcucasXSdC9yY5y3d-W7frSEq96MuKExREvyiXonTiUxPxNrEcRYZKdJ2qzbrWtrexSwk2LzQ4JHV-cff6iJVYd3ZNVKLE_WvdJ7l2ESE/s1600/101797132.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNS0rp_qB0ZMWvFuNEZ0m_sVEaZPKV1KpUwyGcucasXSdC9yY5y3d-W7frSEq96MuKExREvyiXonTiUxPxNrEcRYZKdJ2qzbrWtrexSwk2LzQ4JHV-cff6iJVYd3ZNVKLE_WvdJ7l2ESE/s640/101797132.jpg" width="425" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Everyone is trying to save money where they can these days, but one area that you shouldn't cut back on is skin-care, especially if you are the bride to be!

You might think that the price tag, like gold itself, is by the ounce, but products like these with nano particles of antioxidants are harder to make, so they will cost more, but you can indulge no matter what your budget is.

Studies might show brunettes are taken more seriously, and gentlemen may indeed prefer blondes, but one thing's for sure no matter what your hair color, when summer comes we all fight brassiness. It is widely agreed that ORANGE is not a color anyone is happy to see hit their strands at the beach. I have been asked about this subject and how to get rid of red tint in hair many times so I thought I would give you some tips on fighting back!</span></h2><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBDsE93ZZlyJneSwt2R2f6y5_hlJGvr-s0BBwCi5b39ry1PyVa7z6_MI0tdRr1XWhZTHkpI_N-ReLuMIW5eNIxbuKzxVaZO50Qpwdxlg8PNmTvXjuWHyVfhUECwChrSZ6X8LvDm6-8Xn8/s1600/6037013_f260.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="198" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBDsE93ZZlyJneSwt2R2f6y5_hlJGvr-s0BBwCi5b39ry1PyVa7z6_MI0tdRr1XWhZTHkpI_N-ReLuMIW5eNIxbuKzxVaZO50Qpwdxlg8PNmTvXjuWHyVfhUECwChrSZ6X8LvDm6-8Xn8/s200/6037013_f260.jpg" width="200" /></a><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Coloring you hair is really just a process of depositing colors on to the cuticle of your hair. Your color is a combination of red, yellow and blue in exactly the right mixture. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgraPm8UxmrFiUX1_jxh8ir1roM3tBAaKPlIS9lmIZ2dfIxhoAGpH2y9B-DkVFZRYlcRxz9xnfDIgoPYyvgmsaucEGIfWVkmDwf3OeStqs3gslIyyhSHkVOFpe3HTeg9j0nT7cBZq_JtuI/s1600/images.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgraPm8UxmrFiUX1_jxh8ir1roM3tBAaKPlIS9lmIZ2dfIxhoAGpH2y9B-DkVFZRYlcRxz9xnfDIgoPYyvgmsaucEGIfWVkmDwf3OeStqs3gslIyyhSHkVOFpe3HTeg9j0nT7cBZq_JtuI/s200/images.jpeg" width="200" /></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">But even when you find the IT color combination for your hair type, the challenge is preventing the brassy side effect that happens over time because of oxidation. The blue molecules tend to leave first, leaving you with red and yellow, which we all know from elementary school make orange, BINGO!</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The biggest hint to solving this issue again comes to us by viewing the color wheel and seeing that the opposite of orange is blue. It is precisely those violet pigments that can shut down the brassy-orange shade in your hair that you've been obsessing about. This is why those DIY recipes of using grape Koolaid powder actually work when you mix it with your shampoo, but there are so many better options than Koolaid which could leave you with a bigger problem if things go wrong. Shampoos and conditioners that are specifically designed for color treated hair to use just once or twice a week to keep colored locks looking their best.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"></span></span><br /><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">You want to keep your hair as healthy as you can, damaging your hair cuticle causes it to become more porous, and it is harder then to keep color in. I recently read that playing outside in the sun for a week long vacation can be as damaging on your hair as leaving peroxide on your locks for 30 straight minutes!</span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Another way to filtering out harmful chemicals. metals and ions in your water is to use pure beauty water to wash it with - You can do this for less than $100 by attaching a purification system to your shower head. You can find them at Home Depot or at <span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 18.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Times; mso-fareast-font-family: Cambria; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">jonathanproduct.com</span> </span></span></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Some violet based products to try are <a href="http://www.amazon.com/beauty/dp/B000ULGLYI">Loreal Colorist Collection Blonde</a>, John Frieda Sheer Blonde Colour Renew line and my favorite ~ <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Clairol-Professional-Shimmer-Lights-Shampoo/dp/B000TBVGBM">Clairol Shimmer Lights</a> (just a warning for blondes that this may be a bit too intense, but is perfectly suited for brunettes) Don't be afraid to buy these if you are a brunette because the label says for blondes - these are the shampoos that work and the ones I use. (It's one of my inside secrets I want you to know about too!)</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Another cool new technology to try out is a styling product called <a href="http://www.colorwowhair.com/us/products.html">Color Wow Brass Banned Mousse</a>. It immediately counteracts brassiness by using a mouse that is teal tinted for brunettes and a purple-violet shade for blondes.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Color correction is a fascinating concept that stylists and makeup artists have kept mostly to themselves, but it's such an easy idea to understand, that I hope you embrace.

Who hasn't heard of Crest WhiteStrips? Yes, they work, but only if you're VERY patient and willing to put up with the goo and mess in trying to keep them in place every time you use them. Speaking of, you'll need to use them a lot to see real results.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">And we've all heard of ZOOM, the fastest way to whiten, especially how painful it is. The sensitivity lasts a long time due to the strength of the bleaching agent that's used.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">So if you're looking for a solution to whiten quickly without sensitivity, there is a new at home device on the market that you should know about called the <b><a href="http://www.gloscience.com/">GLO Brilliant Personal Teeth Whitening Device</a>,</b> $199 Available at <a href="http://www.sephora.com/glo">Sephora</a> and <a href="http://gloscience.com./">gloscience.com.</a></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">This system was developed by a dentist, Dr Levine, and is a new approach to whitening using heat and light with a patented gel formula. Dr Oz named it one of his top anti-aging products and beauty editors swear it's the easiest way to whiten teeth without sensitivity.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">It looks like an iPod, but easier to use. Charge it up, apply the gel to your teeth - connect the mouthpiece and press power for 8 minutes to get one step closer to whiter teeth. Up to 5 shades whiter in 5 days, without sensitivity. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">The set comes with 10 G-vials of gel which is enough for 40 applications or sessions. By purchasing additional mouthpieces everyone in the family, over 12 years old, can have beautiful pearly whites. I think Americans now have the whitest teeth in the world!</span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18352336750213701424noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319351005119188596.post-53180867267622230202013-05-04T10:30:00.000-07:002013-11-18T23:56:28.428-08:00Blue Light Therapy Zit Zapper - Tanda High Tech Beauty<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9NrByvbyUNz_PVEkXrNR-abwN_vvc9UHGGtiNvImEynwR-yIQP-G1bozzzIApFc23yMMDsg1awUWaNC4G8rQjisFBXN26Yet3X1Brs1vmQprKb_YhGvMT6_djcXrEWO9aTV6_8yJqHQ8/s1600/tanda.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9NrByvbyUNz_PVEkXrNR-abwN_vvc9UHGGtiNvImEynwR-yIQP-G1bozzzIApFc23yMMDsg1awUWaNC4G8rQjisFBXN26Yet3X1Brs1vmQprKb_YhGvMT6_djcXrEWO9aTV6_8yJqHQ8/s640/tanda.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">They say that beauty comes in all colors ... and so does the light we use on our skin. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Blue light therapy is often used in clinics to treat and prevent acne and now there are gadgets available so you can do it yourself at home.</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/blec298vgCw?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Watch more High Tech Beauty video</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">One of the smallest devices using blue light therapy on the market that can really deliver is the <a href="http://www.tanda.com/zap.html?utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=tanda%20zap&utm_campaign=US+-+Brand+-+Computers+-+Zap&mkwid=egZ63yG4&pcrid=1535056566&pkw=tanda%20zap&placement=%7Bplacement%7D&pmt=e&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc"><b>Tanda Zap</b></a> for $49.

Most of the time the oil will drain but if it becomes blocked bacteria are formed. One of the bacteria creating a zit is called <i>P. acnes</i>. It proliferates, becomes inflamed and swells. White blood cells rush in to try to fight it away, which is how you end up with a white head. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">Blue light therapy works on killing acne because it delivers oxygen inside the pore and <i>P.acnes </i>bacteria cannot live in an oxygen rich environment. Benzoyl peroxide, a commonly used OTC product used to treat acne works in the same way - by introducing oxygen into the pore, but it can be very drying to the skin.</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">No matter what your age, zits continue to pop up.

The only props used were a table, chair, cardboard box and 2 one dollar bills. It is so incredible what production can make appear real.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/iZugVhIaNbQ?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Watch the Mix & Win Commercial</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxl69_wM2Hi-rnhDnwVZNJCGCvmm0iw0BdTx9uIW_HkWKb098zGldz-o9LKX7l8b22h1zxsmeScJ2GtaywbHA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Behind the scenes shots</span></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Some professional advice for those of you reading this that are in the industry: Never wear green when you are a guest on a television set interview that might have an artificial looking backdrop or if you are bringing wardrobe for a commercial job. You might be placed in front of one of these screens and in editing what they will do is block out all the green and if you are in green that may include parts of YOU! Also be aware that blue screens are gaining in popularity as well so check in to see which it might be.</span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Some practical advice: Not everything is as it appears to be when you see something on television. Big stars insist on softening filters to disguise aging faces, and photoshop is well, you know, the magic eraser of everything. There is even a liquifying tool. Never hold yourself to that standard or make comparisons of your individual beauty based on ideals that aren't 100% real. Don't get fooled or insecure. Confidence in and of itself is extremely attractive!!</span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18352336750213701424noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319351005119188596.post-38644404476224017782013-03-25T11:04:00.000-07:002013-11-18T23:56:28.577-08:00Kardashian's Fake tans and more with new Self-Tanning Line<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJUzWE2iYHCVese1bPoNwulYlA0EYWr6dzP-lHb0f_FYIGaBX1xmq8iWu_2YlFDx8y1Mmm0Op83r-cN9I4JxWgOD5_TqS9E_YOplYcawsHj-VjinB4WHySrSF2bg4xUjs3Wzt6_dA7Rr8/s1600/kardashian-self-tanner-w724.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJUzWE2iYHCVese1bPoNwulYlA0EYWr6dzP-lHb0f_FYIGaBX1xmq8iWu_2YlFDx8y1Mmm0Op83r-cN9I4JxWgOD5_TqS9E_YOplYcawsHj-VjinB4WHySrSF2bg4xUjs3Wzt6_dA7Rr8/s640/kardashian-self-tanner-w724.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Just in time to get ready for your Spring Break, the Kardashian's launch a new line of self tanners called Kardashian Sun Kissed next month. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">According to <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/22/kardashian-tanning-line_n_2931284.html">Women's Wear Daily</a> the line is priced between $12.99 and $19.99 and includes 4 products exfoliator, sunless lotion or spray and bronzer. </span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">A tan makes everyone feel like they look skinnier, but we all know how dangerous the sun is to our skin so I love that they are promoting sunless color. Promoting fake color I can get behind, but I wish they would have gone a little less Fake in their photo - so very, overly photoshopped don't you think?</span><br /><br /></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18352336750213701424noreply@blogger.com0
