Ruffle are forever In-style...

My personal favorite fashion trim is ruffles(or as some say, frill or furbelow).










Ruffles are regal, transcend time and add an expansive range to an outfits energy.

Skinpiration!

Skin Rules:
1. DRINK MORE WATER!
2. Vitamin C Serum, facials or injections
3. Moisturize twice a day: You'll need a good quality night cream, day lotion (SPF Preferred) and eye serum/lotion
4. Exfoliate no more than 2 times a week.  ONLY use a toner if you wear lots of makeup/naturally oily skin/live in areas with high pollution and dirt in the air. Don't forget about the rest of your body, lightly exfoliate other areas too!
5. Treat blemishes/acne with acne fighting drying lotions (try Mario Badescu)
6. Keep your oily hair, hands and nails away from your face
7.  Sleep on your back.
8. Clean and disinfect your cell phones/hats/sunglasses/scarfs/eyeglasses before using them
9. Lowering coffee/alcohol/soda and smoking habits will improve your complexion
10. Drink a shot of cod liver oil each day
11. Surprisingly lots of soy edible foods/drinks dont mix well with skin. It can make you break out/redness around mouth and noise  :(
12. If you're swimming in a chlorine filled pool, try not to dip your head under the water
13. WASH YOUR FACE TWICE A DAY. MORNING AND NIGHT...dont be lazy! Using a makeup wipe at the end of the night does not count as washing your face! Wash your face after the makeup is gone.
14. If you have time, put your foundation in the fridge for 10 minutes before you apply. The cold will reduce puffiness
15. Dont let your hair products (shampoo/cremes/sprays) get on your face/chest/back.
Remember...everyone has some bad skin days. IF YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN SOONER RATHER THAN LATER, IT WILL BE LESS MAINTENANCE$ LATER ON IN YOUR LIFE.

Highlight & Contour: Where should it go?
















1. Apply foundation (or dont: if u have perfect texture/toned skin). Blend foundation INTO your jaw, neck and hairline evenly.
2. Dust with a translucent powder: it'll give a softer photo-friendly finish).
3. Pick a matte finish so your face looks naturally sculpted instead of disco-Snooki.
4. BLEND BLEND BLEND in small circular strokes. Blend out any harsh lines with a kabuki brush.

TIPS:
--Apply the highlight shade to where the light naturally reflects and hits you.
--It makes a HUGE difference if your brushes are a higher quality & clean. 
--Highlighters can be a gold dewy glow, silver beige, light tan, fair sand, white or light pink
--Contours can be dusty grays, dark brown, light brown, dark tan or sienna brown red
-Contour and highlight your colar bones, neck, and clevage to enhance or shrink your features!

BEST PLACES TO HIGHLIGHT: Under arch of brow, on top of the end of brow, upper cheekbone, inner corner of eye, outer corner of eye, top and bottom of lip, center of lips, down the shaft of nose, boob
BEST PLACES TO CONTOUR: Sides of nose, below inside of brow, chisel cheek region, below chin, down neck, cleavage, temples, shoulders, collar bone
