Bronzer Is A Summer Must

Now that the warm weather is finally here bronzer should be part of every girls daily makeup routine. I use it all year round because I love looking tan but during these months it is definitely a must. The trick is to find the perfect shade for your skin tone and to find one that is not orangy. My pick is MAC Cosmetics Bronzer in Bronze. It is perfect for my medium skin tone. You also want to make sure your apply it properly too. You want to apply it where the sun naturally hits your face like your cheekbones, temples, and nose. And the best part is bronzer goes great with an even skin tone, a little mascara, and some lip gloss. MAC's is only $20, visit www.maccosmetics.com to order.

Best Summer Nail Color

For some unknown reason I am the kind of girl who likes to skip bright colors on my nails and toes. I always go for light pink, white, or a natural color. My all time favorite color is Sweetheart by OPI. It is my pick for summer because it really pops with a tan but I admit I love to wear it all year long. The light pink has a little white matte to it which looks so creamy. And the best part is OPI is such a quality product it lasts without chipping for over two weeks. Have a special occasion coming up? Use it with a french manicure. So next time you are at the salon keep your eyes out for this hot color. I would love to hear in the comments section below, what is your favorite nail color for summer?

Goodbye Cellulite

That time of the year has come, warm weather means showing more skin and for a lot of us this means trying to hide our cellulite. Most women have it and think there is nothing they can do about it, WRONG. I don't believe in all of those over the counter treatments or in the expense in-office ones either. I am going to show you how to rid your backside of cellulite the good old fashioned way just in time for the summer months.
The first thing you want to do is exercise. You want to do moves that target your butt and thighs. I recommend doing 40 minutes of cardio 3 days a week. You should make sure that you are always on an incline. So you can do the elliptical or the treadmill on an incline. Always vary your speed and amount of incline to assure the most in calorie burning. Then 2 days a week you should do about 45 minutes in strength training. Aside from your normal routine you should do exercises to target the areas that have cellulite. Try squats, lounges, leg raises with weights, etc. There is a lot of information online so do your research to find the moves that work for you and save that personal trainer money for a nice shopping trip.
The other thing you want to do is camouflage your cellulite with self tanner. This is the best tip to hide your cellulite because cellulite is less noticeable with a tan. I love Jergens Natural Glow Express but you can find a variety of self tanners at either www.cvs.com or www.sephora.com, depending on how much you want to spend.
Tell me in the comments sections below your tips to blast cellulite.

How To Properly Curl Your Eyelashes

Lots of ladies are afraid to curl their eyelashes, and even though it feels odd to do it certainly does not hurt at all. You can achieve long, curly eyelashes with just an eyelash curler and some mascara. Following these few simple steps and you will be on your way to having lush lashes.
1) Start with clean, dry lashes. Open the eyelash curler and while keeping your eye open slide your lashes between the two sides.
2) Starting at the inner corner of your eye, position the curler as close as possible to your eyelid without pinching your skin. When your lashes are tucked inside, gently clamp the curler together.
3) Hold for a few seconds, and repeat steps 1-3 on the other eye. Finish off with a few coats of mascara and you will be glam all day long!

Glam Right Now: Personalized Necklace

Even though Carrie made these necklaces popular a few years back they are truly hotter then ever. I am talking about a classic script name plate necklace. Even though these kinds of items are trendy right now they are truly a classic accessory that will never go out of style. Available in 16", 18", and 20" you can choose from yellow gold, white gold, or sterling silver. The golds start at $175 and the sterling silver at $59. Personally I usually where white gold therefore I opted for sterling silver since they basically look the same (and I saved over $100). They also sell rings, bracelets, and other items so visit www.personalizedboutique.com to shop!

Best Summer Tan

We are all aware of the damage the sun can do to both our skin and our health. Self tanners can be streaky and some moisturizes that give you a tan "over time" just take too long! So I must present to you the new Jergens Natural Glow Express. Tried and true this lotion does exactly what it says, a natural summer tan in just 3 uses. And I must be honest that I saw a difference after just one time. All you do is rub it in evenly and completely and you will be bronzed in no time. I noticed I can maintain the color by using it just once or twice a week. And for under $8 it is a lot cheaper then an airbrush tan. Visit www.cvs.com to order.

Maybelline Sky High Curves

While it is very true that I tend to spend a lot of money on my makeup , when I find a product that I like I stick with it, no matter the price! That is why I just HAVE to recommend Maybelline's Sky High Curves mascara in Very Black. It lengthens up to 30%, defines, and curves lashes. And it does all of this with no clumps. Mascara is the one cosmetic I always have on my face, even if nothing else is on. And if your like me and go through a tube of mascara about every 2 weeks, it's worth paying a little over $7 instead of department store prices. Visit http://www.walgreens.com/ to purchase.

Tell me in the comments section below, what brand of mascara can you not live without?

Flats With Some GLAM

As much as I love high heels and how my legs look when I wear them, during the day I need to be comfortable. Therefore I usually opt for flats. Now that summer is almost here I hate to be running around in grungy old flip flops, therefore I'll wear a pair that have some glam deatils to them. Whether it be braids or rhinestones I need something that gives a little extra to my outfit. A perfect example are these rinestone, flat sandals from GUESS Marciano. They come in black or silver and for $59 they add some sparkle to your sandal. Visit http://www.guess.com/ to order.

Cleanest Smell- Philosophy's Amazing Grace

I love wearing all types of different perfumes, yet I am very picky when it comes to choosing them. At night I love to wear Dior Addict, Juicy Couture, or Very Sexy from Victoria Secret. However on a daily basis I love to just smell clean and fresh. And that is why I love Philosophy's Amazing Grace. The combination of light musk and floral blossoms creates a light, fresh smell that makes you feel very womanly. I get compliments on this constantly and assure you that you will too. It's great for everyday and it's $40 for the 2 oz. bottle. Visit www.sephora.com for more details.

Eye Brow How To

Everyone wants perfect eyebrow's but we all know it is easier said then done. No matter if you are guilty of over plucking or just have no idea how to properly shape those brows, follow these three easy steps to get the perfect eye brows for your face!

1) Use a white eye pencil to outline your ideal brow shape.

2) Then pluck only the hairs that fall outside the white line. (Some says to tweeze only beneath and between brows while others say don't touch anything above, use your own judgement.)

3) Use a pencil that matches the shade of your brows to fill in any gaps. You can also finish with blending brow powder two shades lighter then set with a gel.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

Over the past few years I have tried a TON of cleanser's. I needed something that would not only clear up my skin but take off all of my makeup. Then I found Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, it is the only thing that keeps my skin clear and clean. Cetaphil cleanser was formulated by dermatologists as a gentle, non-irritating cleanser for even the most sensitive skin. Unlike soap, Cetaphil is completely non-alkaline, non-comedogenic, and fragrance free. Soothes and softens as it cleanses, helping the skin retain needed moisture. Use for face, hands, and the entire body. Also an excellent cleanser for the delicate skin of babies.
The only thing is that I do wash my face twice with it, that way I am sure all the makeup is off. Also don't confuse it the Cetaphil's Daily Skin Cleanser (I learned they are definitely not the same). It is about $11.99 and can be purchased at http://www.drugstore.com/.

Frederic Fekkai Salon Glaze Clear Shine Rinse

I am one of those woman who has dark brown hair, and yet every 8 to 12 weeks I dye my hair...dark brown. I don't know what it is but I love the rich color and luminous shine my hair has after a dye job at the salon. But now I think I may be able to wait between dye jobs since I found Frederic Fekkai Salon Glaze Clear Shine Rinse. Frederic Fekkai Salon Glaze is a clear shine rinse inspired by professional salon glazing services. The rinse-off treatment binds shine, recharges color, and adds silkiness to the hair. This non-chemical formula contains a unique blend of conditioning and lightweight silicones that coat the cuticle to shine and condition the hair shaft. With its lightweight formula, Salon Glaze won't weigh your hair down like traditional shine serums. It works on all hair colors and types, and both non-colored and color-treated hair. And for $28 a bottle it sure is cheaper then a trip to the salon! Visit http://www.nordstrom.com/ to order.

Phytophanere Dietary Supplement - Hair & Nails

A lot of people want long, strong, gorgeous hair but unfortunately not everyone can grow it naturally. Hair extensions are an easy solution but they require maintenance, are very expensive, and damage your real hair. A great solution is Phyophanere Dietary Supplement. It is for lifeless hair and weak, brittle nails. Super nutrients like carotene, wheat germ oil, and brewer's yeast nourish, protect, and help maintain healthy hair and build strong nails. Word around LA is celeb stylists are getting their client's off of extensions and into taking this supplement. I say $50 for 120 caplets it sure is worth a shot and a lot less then getting extensions. To order visit http://www.sephora.com/.



Pantene Volume Root Lifting Spray Gel

This easy-to-spritz Pro-V spray gel targets the roots of your hair to give you the amplification you want. Consider it one of your stronges...
