Lip Trick December 12, 2010

Quick Fix for Guys and Gals for Dry Lips!!!!!!

Dry flakey lips are not Beautiful, rosy smooth lips are.

This is so easy, when you are brushing your teeth brush your lips too.

They will be exfoliated, rosy, and just dap on some lip balmVoila, 

If you want a little extra because you are feeling drab, get benetint from Benefit Cosmetics or any of the lip stains in a rosy color at the drugstore, dab on lips and quickly blend.  No one can tell it looks like your skin.

Go crazy and put a little on the apple of your cheeks, you'll look like you went on a run! 

Rule

 Dry lips are not good, drab face not the best either, a rosy lip and a little color on your cheeks does wonders!

 Be Beautiful By Being You!

Sleep 101 December 11, 2010

Sleep, there are two kinds of people sleepers, and insomniacs.

You can't cheat sleep, you will have bags, wrinkles, and look like CRAP!!!!!!!!!
Then you are going to be mean, coffee, diet coke, the non sleepers will rattle off their willy nilly ways. Or they chronically complain how tired they are, or worse how energetic they feel.
Sleepers talk about their sleep in sacred terms, like I need eight hours, or I .......... what go mad, they say I can't function, I get sick, I blah blah blah. Only your Dr. cares about these matters just sayin.


Simple Rules
1. Figure out, how much sleep you need, not how much time you have not if you can or should or any of that dribble. Everyone is different. There is no prize for those who say I only need 4 hours.
2. Napping figure it out, other than the U.S. the rest of the world takes naps....... This means 20 minutes up to one hour longer is SLOTH like unless you are sick, need medical attention dial 911.
3. If you're are wondering if you're a sleeper or not Ambien takers are insomniacs or freaking lazy or really smart remains to be seen. Do not take Ambien unless you plan on taking it the rest of your freaking adult life. Also it can leave you feeling depressed, and tired, which is not 
BEAUTIFUL!
4. UP TO DATE YOU KNOW, 
    AVOID DELETE GROSS PEOPLE FROM YOUR LIFE
    DRINK HALF YOUR BODY WEIGHT IN OZ. OF WATER
    GET A GOOD HAIR CUT
    FIGURE OUT YOUR SLEEP HABITS, BAGS ARE UGLY
BE BEAUTIFUL BECAUSE YOUR WORTH IT!!!!

Hair! December 10, 2010

Stop Making excuses for your hair,

Frizzy, Curly, Pin straight, Thin, Thick, figure it out.


Don't bother with the stylish boots, cute scarf, gag gag, look in the mirror.
What does your hair say, boring, I give up, I tried a trendy look and it doesn't work.


Get real, if you don't like spending time styling, get an amazing haircut it will change your life.
Get products that work with your hair, so if you have thin limp hair, don't oil it down with pomade.


WARNING, ponytails look great on a few people, like models, young girls, some women with incredible style and they were trained how to slick it back, and yes they wash it. They spend time creating that effortless pinned back look.


Rules learn them
1. Your hair will age you more than your wrinkles
2. Long doesn't matter if it looks dead, limp and dry, cut it off.
3. Color, that will be another blog
4. No you won't look like the celebrity in the magazine because her hair was styled for hours.
5. Remember Kate plus eight, think of her hair bad bad. Gross short hair, gross extentions, gross color.
6. Bobs are classic because they frame the face, mullets only look good next to a trailer.


Go to the mirror ask what does my hair say?????


No Matter what you wear your hair will cancel all attempts at cuteness.


Yes guys this includes you, figure out the length, if you have great hair don't buzz the crap out of it.
You will just look like a nerd.

Water December 9, 2010

Yep Water,
So from there I am jumping to headaches.


No you can't look pretty with a headache! And yes they are related.


1. If you wake up with a headache, you're either hungover, have the wrong pillow or dehydrated.
2. Lay off the the alcohol, not good for your mug.
3. Have a full glass of water before you go to sleep, yes you will get up to pee, after 2 wks of hydrating you will pee less. 
4. In case your wondering how much WATER is enough half your body weight in ounces. Just one quart is 32 oz.


5. In terms of pillows, the best one I found is Isotonic. It's shaped like a regular pillow just has more of a  dense feel. It is great for side and back sleepers. You can purchase this at Bed Bath Beyond.


IF YOU HAVE A STIFF NECK most of the time, your shoulders are tight.
YOUR BOSSY!


Just Relax, do a little less, you're not going to win any prizes for being an over achiever. You're just going to be worn out tired, then you get a headache that knocks you out so you can escape from all the people demanding your time and energy.

Less is More Holiday Beauty Tip December 8, 2010

You may think these aren't beauty tips keep reading. 

Here is a list of things to preserve your inner and outer looks for ThanksMas, and NewVal.

1. If you don't have a tree yet, get a garland, or get a bowl and throw in some lights cover with ornaments!!!!! Or get familiar with the term Charlie Brown Christmas Tree, it fits in a pot, holds one strand of lights and a handful of ornaments.

2. Avoid any unpleasant family members. This would be the family members you don't talk to all year and then you hum and haw, do I write a card, send a gift, call, invite them over?

NO NO NO this will cause stress and ruin your face.

3. Pick one holiday party to attend, there is no way you can pack on 20lb's at one little shin dig.

4. Don't buy all that crap at the store, you don't need to cover every surface of your house with peanut brittle, boxes of wierd chocolate, cookies that are frosted. They should hit the round file. That would be the garbage.

5. So now that you're not stressed, eating disgusting foods and talking to people you don't like, pat yourself on the back and say I am Beautiful.

6. Take a hot bath, add some grapefruit seed oil, any essential oils you have rosemary would be great. You can buy both at most major grocery stores.

7. Pre-Party quick fix, keep some plain yogurt in the fridge, apply to clean skin let dry, rinse you will be amazed. This hydrates, and leaves your skin glowing, and is magic for stress breakouts.

8. Final tip drink lots of water, start today, it helps with stress, over eating, sleep and energy, need I say more.

I could go on and on, but I know how stuck people get, the holidays just shine a huge magnifying glass on everything going on in your life.

Stress, funky relationships, divorce, do I get the kids, did I buy enough presents????????

Who Freaking cares, it's not THEIR HOLIDAYS they are YOUR HOLIDAYS. So grow a back bone and decide what you love about them, discard the rest.

BE BEAUTIFUL by having boundries, reaching out to those you love.
