“Tan/ Glowing Skin”

In part one I talked about the different ways you can achieve the perfect tan/glow for your body. Part two is all about the different ways you can achieve the perfect tan/glow for your face, with the use of makeup. Before applying any make-up on your face always start with a primer.
Primer: simply a girl’s best friend they can create magic for anyone’s skin. Doing little things such as giving you instantly smoother, softer skin, shrinking your pores, removing oil and dry rough patches and helping your overall makeup stay on longer. Primer will also help keep your skin glowing without letting oil seep in. Products I recommend:
•Smashbox Cosmetics - photo finish foundation primer
•Bare Minerals -BareVitamins Prime Time

Face: after applying your magic wand its time to move on to the face. Many people don’t like to wear heavy makeup in the summer because they feel like they are melting and makeup can get very sticky. At the same time they also want their skin to look healthy and glowing without looking oily. The best thing is to stick to tinted moisturizers that are oil-free. That way your pores are less likely to clog and you are still getting coverage. In order to create a glow or tan look try purchasing a shade darker than you would normally use. Remember to only go one shade darker so that you look still looks as natural as possible. Another good thing is that most tinted moisturizers have SPF in their products.

If you feel that tinted moisturizers don’t give you enough coverage try and buy brands that are oil-free so that your pores don’t get clogged with oil in the summer heat. You might also want to try mineral based products because they are also light way and many of them will give you the look of healthy glowing skin.

Checks: the fun part of creating a healthy glow because the checks if where it all shines. Glowing checks can add a new def to your face with wonderful illusions. This is why one of the best ways to create glowing checks is with luminizers. If you wish to do so you can mix your luminzing products with any of your foundations in order to create a bigger brighter glow to your skin. It all depends on the look you are going for. If you just want glowing checks than you can use luminizers as a blush to create and bring light to your checks or any other areas of your face. Such as your nose, eyes, or forehead.

•Bare Minerals- i.d. bareMinerals All-Over Face Color ( minerals)

Eyes: summertime is great for waterproof eye liners and mascara. You can also try eye primers so that your eye makeup last longer. If you want to create or add to your glowing skin, you can use colors such as bronze, silver, gold, and turquoise (which are great for already tan skin). You can also try cream eye shadow; most creams have little shimmers in them that can really make your eyes pop.

Lips: If you’re trying to a healthy glowing look with your lips always try to use colors that are nude, natural and pink.

So if you want to achieve a healthy glow remember to play up the rest of your face, always leave your lips natural and soft. Some great products and colors that I recommend are
•Lorac- nude
•Nars -Belle de Jour or Casablanca

“EYEBROW SHAPING TECHNIQUES”

When it comes to your eyebrows you want them to always look their best. Eyebrows play a major role in the shaping and appearance of how attractive your face can look. So the better your eyebrows are shaped that better your appearance will be. Everyone has their own methods of shaping their eyebrows, you can choose from threading,( which you can find at your local mall) waxing, tweezed, and just using an old fashion razor.

If you haven’t had your eyebrows groomed in a while or if this is your first time, my best suggestion is don’t do it on your own. Most women don’t have a clue of how to take care of their eyebrows so leave it to the professionals. Once a pro shows you some techniques and lays down a shape of your brow you can keep them in shape with tweezers. ( refer to my tweezing guide for more tips)

The best method you can use is that one that you think will be best suited for you. Threading is an excellent choice for beginners but if your skin is sensitive you might want to try either waxing or tweezing. Although out of all of the choices threading seems to last the longest usually about 2 to 3 weeks depending on how fast they can grow back. Also with treading if you have any unwanted facial hair you can get that done as well. If you’re worried about money none of these procedures should cost more than 20 dollars depending on where you live.

LIFE WITH ACNE

Acne is the four letter word that means death, because with it you feel as if you have died or are dying on the inside. My journey with acne began when I was just 8 years old and continued until high school. I even had acne during prom. I started maturing faster than most girls my age and with that came acne. It just wouldn’t stop. Everyone made fun of me. I heard all of the typical names and cried countless number of times. One guy even said in front of the class she would be pretty if she used some acne cream. But the fact of that matter was I did use acne cream I tried everything and nothing seemed to work.

LIFE WITHOUT ACNE

Some people say that having acne means you have something terrible going on internally. But I seriously don’t think that’s the case. I’ll tell you a little bit about my journey of gaining my confidence and clear glowing skin. As I was younger my mom would buy me treatments such as Clearasil, and Clean and Clear most of which were products that existed in the grocery stores and pharmacy stores. I hated walking down the acne aisle and buying the products because you could see everyone’s face in the store looking at me saying “she really that products “quietly in their minds. Now I must say that everyone skins is different and some of these products that I’m talking about may work for some people. I’m just one person and this is my experience with these products. For some people it may actually work.

Late one might my mom and me were sitting around watching TV when we say an ad for proactive, and this was before it was endorsed by the countless numbers of celebrities that they have today. So we ordered the product I tried at and in a month my skin started to clear up. I was so excited and happy, even the brown marks begin going away. Months later the acne began appearing again, so I tired proactive extreme, most people don’t know about this product but it’s suppose to be stronger that proactive and made from the same company. It made my situation worse and that this was all happening one week before prom. There was no way I would have clear skin before prom. So yes I went to prom with acne and horrible makeup that was an attempt to cover up the acne and the scars. A year later I went one having acne and using proactive just in case it wanted to all of a sudden start working the way it did when I first tried it. I pray but still I had bad acne. One night I came across this book online that talked about ways to clear up acne. How acne was a internal things and the how the food you eat affects you skin. So I began only eating fruits and vegetables, and my skin did clear up very nicely but I got tired of having to eat fruits and veggies everyday, back. I’m young and every now and then I want some chocolate. So once I stopped eating healthy the acne came back.

This is where it gets really good. One night I was so frustrated with my acne I began looking online for need products I had to find something, and luckily I did. I came across a website zendmed , I browse through their products. They talked about how you can clear your skin with natural products that contain minerals from the earth and they even have vitamins that you could take daily that would detoxify your body and prevent acne. So I purchase the product and began using it. Within a couple of weeks my skin started clearing up, months later its still worked and kept my acne away. I gained my confidence back and clear glowing skin. This stuff really works and the sad part is people don’t even know about it and that’s why I’m telling you. I want to spread the word about zenmed because no one should have to live with acne.
