Colors the basics explained
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 03-Jul-2009

Have you ever thought the world would have been so dull and lifeless without beautiful colors? Color is the most beautiful creation of God. Color can influence our emotions, our actions and how we respond to various people, things and ideas. Every color has a meaning and it symbolizes different things, so less discuss the basics of colour.

colour

Types of Color: Primary Color- A primary color is that which is used in a pure state. No colors can be combined to create a primary color. Three primary colors are:

  • Red
  • Yellow
  • Blue

This means red, yellow and blue cannot be made from any other combination of colors or pigments.

Secondary Color: A secondary color is that which can only be created by combining two of the primary colors. Like when you mix red and blue in equal parts, you get a deep violet or purple. In this red and blue is primary color and violet is secondary. Either you can mix two colors in equal amount or mix them unequally to get varying shades.

Get a celebrity look!
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 29-Jun-2009

Every girl dreams to look like beautiful celebrities like Angelina, Jennifer, Nicole and countless others. Trust me it's not impossible. A little knowledge of makeup and how to carry yourself can really give you the look of your favorite celebrity or at least make you feel like a star. Proper makeup can really create magic in your personality and make you feel good (well it does to me) Want to go for it? Let's check out some of tip.

 

  1. Look at a photo of a star: Look at her hair, clothes and make-up.  I sometimes wonder how Angelina for example can look good all the time. Most stars look great with just a simple T and jeans. But this is not the case for me! Oh no, no. I need to put more effort than that. I have to check not only if the clothes match but also my hair and make-up. But l like checking the stars to see if l can use any of their styles.
  2. Before you can look like a star, you need to feel like one, so remember to look after your skin. Cleanse, tone and moisturize everyday. (MMM now that l am writing this, l do admit to myself, l do not tone but l know l should, and so should you!)
  3. I love to moisturize my whole body with a nice smelling cream each night if l can, l feel "beautiful" when l go to bed.
  4. If God gave you great skin, good for you, but before l leave the house l need to put foundation on. Once that is done, l put on some make-up, especially mascara and lipstick with gloss. I think we should all do this, because if we think we look better, most of the times we do!
  5. Hair, now this is just as important too. What ever your preferred style, straight, curly, long, short, you know what suits you, so l say stick to it, if you feel comfortable them go for it. I have to at least straighten my fringe everyday. It makes me "feel" like a have done my hair, put some sort of effort!

 

These simple things if we follow them can make us look just as good your favorite celebrity, or at least think you are, good-luck! For more fun things check out www.awomansworld.com

Shape your eyebrows according to your face
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 20-Jun-2009

Well-shaped, beautifully groomed eyebrows can make you look attractive and give recognition to your face. A perfect eyebrow starts from the inner corner of the eye, arches just beyond the outer curve of the iris and narrows down at the edge of the eye. Slight changes should be applied to suit the shape of individual faces and here is how!

Shape your eyebrows according to your face
  • Oval Face: Keep the brow line natural by tweezing just the stray hairs and in between the brows. Any natural shape of the eyebrows works well with an oval face as this is an ideal face shape. So if your favorite celebrity has an eyebrow shape that you love, then go for it, like actress Jennifer Aniston.

Shape your eyebrows according to your face
  • Round Face: For round faces choose high arched eyebrow shape by making your eyebrows more oval by arching the brow high and leaving the tapering part small. It gives a facelift and a youthful appearance.
  • Elongated Face: Tweeze the eyebrows flat for an elongated face by keeping the arch low. This opens the eyes horizontally to give the illusion of an oval face.

Botox and its effects
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 13-Apr-2009

With growing age everyone is worried about wrinkles and dream to look young. There are many cosmetic methods and treatment to minimize the wrinkles of the face and one of them is Botox. Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin which is injected underneath skin to smooth lines by blocking nerve impulses that trigger wrinkle-causing muscle contractions. Though Botox is popular as a temporary wrinkle eraser, this toxin actually has many more uses than just smoothing skin.

Botox has gained in popularity over the years for several reasons like:

  • It's less invasive than a face lift and the results are immediate.
  • With Botox, the swelling goes down within a day or two, and while a prick from the needle is visible immediately after having the Botox administered, most of the evidence is gone within twenty four hours.
  • Botox is much cheaper and quicker than a face lift.
  • Botox takes little time to administer.
  • Botox is also temporary, so if you don't like the changed look you can resume your normal appearance within three to six months.
  • It's painless.

Perfume facts
Pump it1 Dump it0      Posted on: 03-Apr-2009

Perfumes have been used by humans to improve their scent since early days. Perfume is made up of alcohol, water & perfume (fragrance) oil. Perfume comes from Latin word per fumum, which means "through smoke" (per means through, fumum means smoke).  The making of perfumes is known as perfumery. Fragrances are classed-and priced-by their alcohol content. The highest proportion of scent is found in true 'perfume' - anywhere from 25 to 40% is pure scent.

perfume
History: The Egyptians were the first to incorporate perfume into their culture, and the first to place perfume into glass bottles. Further refining and development was done by Romans and Arabs. Up to some extent, Eastern Asia had also supported perfumes and perfumery. At that period no chemicals were used for perfumery. In the beginning, the fragrances were based on incense and essential oils of aromatic plants. History is evident that the modernization of perfumery began with the ancient Islamic culture. During that time the spices and herbs were used in perfumery. Steam distillation process was used to extract the fragrance from the aromatic flowers and plants.

Pamper your skin and it will glow
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 08-Mar-2009

People always like to have a glowing skin. But it is you who must take care of your skin in order to help your skin look the best it can. Face washing is often the core of beautiful face. Cleaning is essential in maintaining beautiful and healthy skin. A face speaks volumes about one's personality, and a well looked after face not only attracts attention and adulation, but fosters confidence in a person. Therefore the face must be cleansed properly and in the right way.

beautiful-skin

Important steps in the cleaning of face: Most important and initial step should be the choosing of skin care products that work best for you.

  • Cleansing: Choose a skin care product for your specific skin type. Wash in a circular motion with lukewarm water to retain the skin's moisture.

  • Exfoliation: Exfoliation is the removal of the oldest dead skin cells that cling to the skin's outermost surface. Granular products are best for this procedure to help scrub off all of the dead skin cells, allowing for maximum skin moisturizing. Good exfoliating procedures will also help smooth any rough areas of the skin. When done correctly, exfoliation leaves the skin feeling smoother and fresher looking.

Trendy lip colors this season
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 08-Mar-2009

When it comes to makeup cosmetic world lips are always important and every girl loves lipstick! Let's check out hot lip color looks for this season.

Rihanna nude look lips

Nude:  Pick a nude shade that complements your skin tone and give your cheeks a touch of blush.  You can try out nude makeup with a simple lip balm, concealer and a lip-gloss as well. Use a lip exfoliater before you try this look to make your lips smooth. Then gently apply a little lip balm on your lips and add a light layer of the concealer over this. Use a lip brush for the application. Avoid dabbing too much concealer as your lips may end up looking muddy. Top this off with a fresh layer of lip-gloss for a basic and luscious nude lip look. To make your lips appear fuller, apply gold or silver lip-gloss on the lower lip. Another option is to use a high shine, shimmery lip-gloss. For truly gorgeous lips, you can also use a lip brush and dab it into the lipstick. Apply this on your lips and blot with a tissue. Reapply it altogether. This trick can help you keep the color on for a longer time. If you can't do without a lip liner, just make sure you match it with your lip color. But, remember that browns or darker shades are a huge no no with nude lips! Check out the Nude look on Rihanna, she looks amazing.
