How To Remove Age Spots On The Face

Age spots are caused by prolonged sun exposure. They are termed age spots because they are more common on older individuals, due to repeated years of sun damage. Age spots, freckles and sun spots are all the same. In order to get rid of them, you must protect your skin from the sun. If you don't, you age spots will simply return whenever you go into the sun unprotected. While age spots are more common on fair-skinned individuals, they can occur on people of all skin types. Instructions 1 Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to your face daily. This means that the sunscreen protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Choose a sunscreen with a high-SPF level and reapply every few hours. 2 Wear a broad-rimmed hat. While sunscreen is essential, additional means of protection are necessary if you'll be in the sun for long periods of time. A wide-rimmed hat will further protect your face from the sun's damaging rays. Wear UV-resistant sunglasses to protect the delicate...

Cheetah Makeup

Applying cheetah makeup is a creative way to express yourself during Halloween or other costumed events.

Plum Hair

Caring for natural hair can be difficult sometimes, but with wigs,braids,extension and quick-weave No more dealing with hair anymore. If you want tinted hair just purchased a wig, extension,  braids and quick-weave. I can't begin to tell you how many times people are saying that a stylist messed they hair up with relaxer, tint, heat and glue. However, the styles are Beautiful but afterwards No hair. I'm glad now we can protect the hair without glue pulling the hair, sew-in stressing the hair, braids pulling from the root, but wigs you can wear then take off before bed time. I like my hair to feel free. Make sure when installing the wig to properly protect the hair. I hope you enjoyed this blog on wigs!

How To Do Giraffe Print

Instructions 1 Paint the entire side of the face you intend your giraffe print for a light tan color. If you are painting a large area, like the whole face , it may be easier to use airbrush makeup—just make sure the makeup is liquid. Allow a few minutes to dry. 2 Trace on the spots that are characteristic of giraffe print using a angle brush. Spots should be about 1 inch apart, so you can see the underlying light tan and varying shapes and sizes. Avoid perfect circles or squares. Think of how the pieces would look if you dropped a plate flat on the floor; the pieces would come apart in different shapes but would still be relatively close together. 3 Paint your spots with a dark brown cream, liquid paint or eye shadow and a small brush. A smaller brush is best to ensure you don’t go over the lines that you’ve drawn. Allow paint to dry, then paint on one more layer to ensure that the tan cannot be seen behind the brown. Allow to dry. To get the o...

Lash Dip Semi-Permanent Mascara

So two weeks ago, I was provided with Lash Dip Service.   If you're wondering, what the heck is Lash Dip, well it's  a solution meant to replace the need for traditional mascara.  Lash Dip produces the same finish as mascara, but provides a semi-permanent result. Lash Dip coats & colors each lash w/ a deep black finish. The coating, or "Dip", is waterproof, creates a dark black finish on lashes, curves & holds & sets lashes, separates, increases lash volume & extends length.  Now the procedure took about an hour and I fell asleep while it was being done, that's how comfortable I was. I woke up an hour later so relaxed and with amazing looking lashes. Now not only did she apply the  lash dip, but she also applied their newest innovation which is called feather inserts. The Lashdip and feather inserts are not applied to the natural skin but to the lashes themselves so I felt pretty much nothing as she was applying. Now unlike lash extensi...

CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation + SPF20

Note: If you can't find a shade that's dark enough for you in this range, please see this post, which explains that the new CoverGirl Queen Collection All Day Flawless Foundation + SPF20 is almost identical to this formula, and available in many shades for deeper skin tones. Back in the middle of February, I posted on Instagram about how much I was loving this foundation. I had just purchased it from Rite And and had only used it once, but it was literally love as first swipe. I wanted to write this review immediately after trying it, but that wouldn't be accurate or reliable. So, I waited. I tried it with different moisturizers underneath. I tried it with different concealers and setting powders. I just had to make sure that what I was experiencing wasn't a fluke. Before wildly raving about this product, I wanted to be absolutely certain that this product worked in all occasions. Luckily, since February, we've had both cold and very hot weather her...
