Makeup: Lips and Eyes
Puffy eyes? Bags under your eyes? Apply frozen chamomile bags on your eyelids, fresh cucumbers, Pepperation H, or Put some ice cubes in a bag, wrap in a washcloth, and put on eyes for 5 min. Prepperation H wouldn't help dark circles. dark circles are due to broken capillaries. Stop that picking! The more you touch your face, the more oil gets deposited on it. Makes your pores larger too. Oil=clogged pores, clogged pores= zits and blackheads.
Lips
To make lips look bigger, use a hint of color or clear gloss. Matte, lining inside your lips, and dark lips make them looks smaller. Want to make your lips look fuller? Line the inside of your lip by filling in your lip with color and outline it in a light color ;close to your natural color. Outline outside of your natural line, but just a little. Use an a medium to darker shade lip pencil and draw a faint line just under the middle of your bottom lip. Smudge with your finger, add lipstick or a satin gloss. Apply a light amount of gloss in the center of your lips. It gives the look of a shadow, a fuller lip and the light hits the center of the lip were the gloss is. Do this last.
Do not use a dark brown grey or black eye pencil. This is a common mistake, very unattractive and trassy. Yes they were talking about you, learn darling. :) I'm here for you.
Eyes
Want cream eyeshadow? Apply eyeshadow then a little Vaseline with your regular powder and spread the Vaseline over with a Q-tipnstead . As in Blog Entry March, 2008. Instead of using an eyeliner pencil, make your own liquid liner. Take a small makeup brush and dip it in water. Then, dip in in powder and line your lids. To make powder eyeliner that last much longer, take a small eye brush and dip it into the powder or dry/wet eyeshadow. Apply around eye area as you normally do. You may instead retrace you regular eyeliner with shadow for an easier application.
Eyeshadow creasing or not lasting for long? To make eye shadow stay on longer powder with loose powder, baking soda, cornstarch or baby powder. This is your eyelids for becoming greasy.
I hear a lot of people use hairspray for unruly eyebrows. I prefer to use clear mascara, its quick and easy and you don't need an applicator of any kind. If it doesn't work you may really need to give then a good trimming. Shape them up girl! :)
Lips
Make your own lipgloss: mix some Vaseline in a pot with kool-aid. Mmmmmm tastes great! Never skip the chapstick or vaseline as a base before putting on lipstick when in the mood for glossy lips. Don't lick your lips, It drys them even more.
Lip stain staying power this is very old fashion now with long wearing lipstick but if necessary you can still use this simple old yet effective trick. Always dust your lips with powder first, use a lip pencil to line and fill in lips, apply lipstick matte, next apply lip pencil all over lips again as before. Finally apply gloss to keep them from chapping or drying. Some people like to apply chap stick first but it may make lip color wear away faster. So apply on afterward.
Got a little patch of flaky skin but not enough time to go exfoliate and moisturize? Take a strip of scotch tape, stick it on, tear it off. It may hurt a little and may take a couple "rips" to get the skin off, but it works. When you're done, cleans the area and put on aloe vera or vaseline on to soothe it. Moisturize- very important for your skin to keep it healthy and soft.

The Key to Flawless Foundation
Types of Foundations
Most of us keep our foundation as close as our ATM card. And just like crisp cash, we tend to "spend" too much of it. That's the most common problem women make -- putting foundation all over their face when that's very rarely needed. When you get the right shade, and you know how and where to use it, you'll find you need very little.
But first which form do you choose? There are sticks, liquids, minerals, creams, and powders. If you have normal skin, you're fine with anything. Dry skin is best with a cream or liquid -- these glide easily over the skin. Oily skin is best with an oil-free liquid but a powder or mineral foundation is even better.
I almost always advocate the sheerest coverage possible. I like to see real skin through any foundation. It has life in it -- freckles and little idiosyncrasies are what make you... you . Liquid is the sheerest form of foundation. Powder, mineral and dual finish powder are less sheer. And cream can be the heaviest, most opaque of all.
Once you choose what to use, you can still control the amount of coverage. With a cream or liquid, use a damp sponge, foundation brush, or -- my favorite tool for applying foundation -- fingertips. I typically squirt some from my favorite pump formula onto the back of my hand and dab on from there. This warms it somewhat, and I don't have to deal with a dispenser while I apply.
To build more coverage, apply in thin layers, using a gentle patting motion so you never pull on the skin. Apply foundation with finger tips or makeup brush. Before applying concealer take finger tips or sponge and lightly dab face all over foundation. This will help better blend mistakes and foundation. You can also go super sheer by blending cream or liquid foundations with a bit of moisturizer. Though may brands of tinted moisturizers are available. With a pressed powder foundation, you can apply wet or dry with a sponge. Wet, you get more coverage. Dry will be more sheer.
It's also good to think ahead to what makeup you plan to apply over your foundation. Cream products are compatible with cream foundations. Powder colors work best over powder foundations.
So cream blush on top of a dual finish foundation? Bad idea. The powder will "grab" the cream blush and you won't be able to blend it into place. Powder blush on top of a liquid or cream foundation? Also a bad idea -- unless you brush loose powder over the foundation to create a compatible surface for your powder blush. Similarly, cream eye shadows should go over a cream foundation; powder shadows over powder.
A final word about finish: If you've used a cream foundation, your face will be dewy. If you want creams to go matte, add a final dusting of loose powder.
What Color Is Best?
Foundation should always match your skin tone. Don't try to fake a porcelain face when you aren't that fair. Likewise, don't try to fake a two week vacation in St. Bart's if you aren't that dark. Anything other than your real color will look like a mask. Color also depends on the lighting. Tips here are for in the day, more natural lighting like outdoors. Go for more bright or warm shades in sheer coverage when, night-lighting, going to clubs or in dim light.
When you put foundation on, it should disappear on the skin -- then you know it's the right shade. Another plus to a perfect match is that you won't have to wear it over your entire face, which is important because (I can't say this enough) most women don't need foundation all over.
Where Does It Go?
Always use foundation over the eyelids, even if you aren't using eye makeup. It cleans up tiny veins and uneven skin tone. Simply blend over the entire lid, and powder to set. If applying eyeshadow use a concealer before apply eye makeup to set. It will make makeup last longer and look better. Foundation and concealer goes under the eyes, too, to take minor circles away (really dark circles need concealer, then foundation). Concealer on the eyes in the day time - this is a great nude eye look on its own, also a great primer before applying eye color.
Another key spot: around the nostrils. Most people have some redness here to cover. For redness use concealer or foundation with a yellow base. Foundation around the eyes and nostrils makes such a difference, many women learn that's all they need. Everywhere else is an option.
I also like to put foundation over the lip line (not over the whole lip), so when I do the lips later, lip pencils glide easily. This gives you a clean line to work with -- and also hides any unevenness of your lip line. So people prefer concealer for this trick.
If you want a full face application, go for it. But the idea is to use foundation to perfect the skin, not hide it. Have fun that's what makeup is for and remember love the skin your in.

Super Omega 3, 6, 9; Why We Use Them
Borage Seed Oil:
For more than 1500 years, the blue, star-shaped flowers of the borage plant have been used in elixirs and medicinal teas because of its healing properties. This natural oil is a rich source of gamma linolenic acid and has been known to be used in the treatment of eczema and rheumatoid arthritis and in herbal medicine. This oil is cold pressed from the seeds of the borage plant. Borage oil, or "starflower", as the botanical is known, contains up to 24% Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA is an essential fatty acid which the body converts into prostaglandin, a hormone-like substance. Prostaglandin is reported to offer anti-inflammatory properties. In many studies it has been found that a deficiency in GLA attributes to poor skin condition, especially psoriasis and eczema. GLA is an essential fatty acid which the body converts into prostaglandin, a hormone-like substance. Prostaglandin is reported to offer anti-inflammatory properties. In many studies it has been found that a deficiency in GLA attributes to poor skin condition, especially psoriasis and eczema.Numerous studies have been conducted with borage oil, which ultimately demonstrate the oil's high-level efficacy when used either orally or topically. In the early 1980s, GLA, an essential fatty acid that promotes healthy skin, was identified as a triacylgycerol component in Borage Oil. Borage Oil is the richest source of GLA currently available.
