DIY: TWEEZING

 How to Keep Your Brows Looking Great Every Day of the Year.

Shaping Your Brows

The shape of your brow should follow the natural line of your brow bone. The arch should be highest at the outer corner of the pupil. To determine where the brow should begin, place a pencil straight up from the side of the nostril. To determine where it should end, hold the pencil diagonally against the outer corner of the eye pointing up to the brow bone. Brow should extend slightly beyond the eye at which point it should taper slightly down. 

Easy Steps To Accurate Tweezing

• Use good tweezers.
• Make sure you are in good even light.
•  Brush hair in the direction of hair growth.
•  Isolate the hair you are about to tweeze.
• Pull the hairs in the direction of growth.
•  Pull one hair at a time.
• Tweezing after a bath or shower is easier when the skin is warm.
• For ladies, avoid plucking just before a period as more pain or discomfort may be felt at this time.
• Pull gently and smoothly. 

Not Sure How Much to Tweeze?

Be sure to step back from your mirror and check your brows periodically. Tweeze a few hairs from one brow and then the other so they remain symmetrical. Remember that it's better to tweeze too little than too much. 

Do's and Don'ts

* Do tweeze in the direction of hair growth.

* Do open your pores with a hot washcloth to make tweezing easier. 

* Do use a make-up concealer to draw your desired brow shape, then tweeze the hairs that fall below the line.
* Don't use creams or moisturizers that can cause the tweezers to slip.
* Don't tweeze nose hairs or hairs growing out of moles.

How to conquer the summer heat.

• Running Foundation

With the heat naturally comes sweat and none of us wants to be the women with her face rubbing off on her handkerchief. Try a light foundation and look picture perfect from day to night.

•  Nails and toes

As soon as warm weather hits, your toes are the first things exposed. Do not cut back on manicures and pedicures as your hands and feet are on full display.

• Sweat stains

We all sweat! Go for light and airy fabrics to keep your body cool and light colors are always the best way to go when trying to survive warm weather.

How to store your makeup brushes!

 For cheap, easy brush storage at home, stand them up in a glass (brush heads up).

When you're on the road, use a brush roll, which is a folding bag with slots for each brush. It rolls up like a sleeping bag.

Good morning ladies...Here are tips on how to get beautiful nails.

Maintaining your nails by using naturally available products is something that’s easy to do at home. Ingredients such as orange juice, lemon, sugar, honey and beeswax are easily available and are great for your nails.

- Use lemon juice to remove the yellow color from the nails. Lemon lightens up the nails giving them a whiter look. Apply lemon juice evenly on the nails, several times in a day when you notice the color has turned yellow.

-Use orange juice and sugar to help promote the growth of the nails, strengthen it and promote cuticle growth. Soak your nails in a mixture of orange juice and sugar for ten to fifteen minutes at least two times in a week.

-Apply honey and beeswax to the nails to moisturize and protect them naturally.
