NAIL POLISH & THEIR STAINS

 

HEY! TROUBLED ABOUT IT TOO?

Hmmm.... my ladies are nodding here.
This is usually a turn off for ladies. Rather than going about with stained nails, they rather wear the artificial once or wrap them up. Making them spend longer hours in the salon. 

You know what? That's why this page is created. To give you tips on how to catch all the attentions EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
*smiles* this on a lighter note.

All you need do if your nails are already stained are these:
1. Soak your nails in organic lemon juice take a baby brush & scrub gently. Or
2. Soak it in 4 parts of water & 1 part of hydrogen peroxide solution. scrub it also.
3. Peroxide toothpaste too helps.
4. Lavender Oil n buff the stains off.
By the time you know it, its all off.

Now if your nails are stain free, you can maintain them that way even if you wear a stain polish.
All you need do is, soak your nails in Vinegar minutes before you apply the polish. Make sure you do the application on dry nails.

We believe you have gained one or two things from us. *wink*
We would like to read from you.

THE ART OF MAKE - UP

WHAT ENDEARS YOU MOST TO THIS ART?

Make up is the act of playing with colours beautifully on the body especially on the face to achieve one or more of these three basics of make up.

1.                 Enhancement

2.                 Concealment

3.                 Feigning

1.                 Enhancement: This has to do with highlighting your strength i.e. your beautiful features. E.g. If you have beautiful eye balls and you want to showcase them to the world, all you need to do is to highlight it round with a dark eye pencil or liner.

2.                 Concealment: This has to do with hiding your flaws. E.g. if you have Froggy eyes, and want to hide it, all you need do is to line the inner lids with dark liners it will make the eyes appear smaller.

3.                 Feigning: This has to do with giving yourself a feature you admire so much on people which you do not have. E.g. If you have small eyes and you want them to appear bigger, you will need to apply liner on the upper lid half way out.

I am sure you will agree that if you know how to use your make-up well, you will have a perfect you.

Now that we know the essence of make-up, what are these items that we will use to achieve our aim?

1.                 Foundation Prima

2.                 Foundation

3.                 Powder

4.                  Eye shadow prima

5.                 Eye shadows

6.                 liquid eye liner

7.                 Eye & lip pencils

We have different products; some are made having the women of colour in mind while some are not to be used by women of colour.

Often times, I am being faced with the question what make up item that one can not do without.

      Well I think it is an individual thing. What “A” cannot do without may not be paramount to “B”.

       My days in school, I had a friend who powders her face every second even when a lecturer stood in front of us. Powder, she could not do without.

My sister cannot move an inch out of the house without making her lips dazzling. For my sister, lipstick is it. My mum, it is mascara, she enjoys it whenever she is being asked if those lashes are for real. While, I cannot do without my dark brown pencil. I call it my day saver because with it, I am well made up. It serves as my brow filler and that is what people appreciate most on my made up face. It also serves as my lip liner making my lips look dark and lovely. I also use it to line my eyes round flaunting the fact that I have got them beautiful.

So, why don’t you look inwards and let’s have one thing that accentuates your beauty. While you are at it I will list the must have for your regular beauty pouch.

1.     Powder

2.     Small pallet of eye shadows

3.     Small pallet of lip colors

4.     One lip and eye liner

THE LASTING RED KISSABLE LIPS

O! YOU ALSO THINK LIP COLORS DON'T LAST LONG

OKAY THEN! LETS FOLLOW THESE STEPS N SEE HOW MANY HOURS WE COUNT

THINGS NEEDED

• Lip balm
• Lip pencil
• Red lip color {stick or pallet}
• Lip gloss {optional}
• Cotton bud

STEPS

We need a smooth surface to work on.
To get that perfect supple lips to work on, we refer you to our last publication. That is where the lip balm comes in. If your lips are smooth, soften them with very little dab of the balm by applying it lightly on the lips.
Note if it is too much your lips become creamy n what we want is a dry but smooth lips.
Now use your pencil to trace your lip lines. Then begin to fill in with the pencil. I.e you color your whole lips with it. Make sure this pencil is a matching color to the lip color. That is, the color of the lip stick. The essence of the pencil is to make it last long.
You are now to apply the lip color on the pencil painted lips n you clean the edges of the lips with cotton bud. With this, you are good to go. That is if you want that mature classy look.
For the glamorous n wow! look add your gloss.

NOTE!

• Go for stain lip sticks. Like the name goes, it makes the color last longer unlike the creamy once. 
• The dryer the lips before the application of the pencil the more the lasting result but the lips must be smooth to achieve a neat job.
• Never use dark pencils for it. 
• This method of application of lip sticks apply to all colors. 

Now, let the count begin........

GOING FOR A PHOTO SHOOT?

FEW TIPS ON WHAT TO DO RIGHT THERE IN THE STUDIO.

When going to the studio take along with you the following

• Baby wipe {replacement for water n towel}

 After you have worn the clothes for the shot, use the baby wipes to clean your exposed skin well
to give it that wet freshness.
Put a rich quantity of the moisturiser on your palms rub together n massage unto the skin.
