CoverGirl NatureLuxe Gloss Balm
October 25th, 2011
Lipstick and lip gloss have a completely different look and feel. If you’re searching for something that’s in between you may want to try CoverGirl’s NatureLuxe Gloss Balm. The subtle color in this Gloss Balm is not as strong as a lipstick, and it’s not as shiny as a gloss. You also get the benefit of SPF 15 and nurturing mango and shea butter. We thought this was a great formula for going to the office, going to the gym, or anywhere where you don’t want to look like you have obvious makeup. Thankfully, our lips were soft but we didn’t have to go through the stickiness that gloss can have. We tried NatureLuxe Gloss Balm in shade Grenache (235), which is a very natural looking plum shade.
Cosmetology courses via accredited online colleges are an option for those of you who also have a passion for beauty.

Secrets for Stunning Celebrity Skin
October 19th, 2011
We know very well that celebrities have their own group of makeup professionals that assures these people look their best whenever they face the cameras or mingle with people. Nevertheless, you can still have that wonderful skin even if you do not have such pros working for your skin. Makeup India artists and skin care experts share some secrets into having that perfect skin, without spending too much money.
Set Your Skin Color
It is important to set your skin color so that the make-up you wear would perfectly suit your mood, your shades of choice, and even your body features. It also indicates your health and that you get an adequate supply of Vitamin D in your skin. When you do not have the time of getting the tan you want, a spray tan would give you the quickest and easiest fix.
However, if you find it difficult to hold your breath while spraying then trying out self-tanners or bronze powders should be an option. It is also recommended to do the tanning moderately or put some sun block lotion on, so that you can avoid having sunburns or tan lines
Get Thinner
While you adore celebrities for being fit and firm, it is not the case at all times. They also experience those moments when they get a little fatter. Just in case this happens, they take in a dietary supplement that could speed up their digestion, improve their metabolism, and burn their extra inches faster.
Drink Your Liquids
Keeping an ample supply of water in the body is one of the best and simplest secrets for moisturized skin, and this can only be achieved when you follow the required amount of water intake. Adding a skin moisturizer would greatly enhance your face, and every inch of your skin.
Revive Your Face
As you meet with people and go places every day, the first thing that they will notice is your face. You need to take an adequate time for rest, a moderate dose of anti-oxidants, and patting your face on the right places to promote better blood circulation. The said patting is done with the following steps:
- Begin the petting from the top of the cheekbone then down to the nose, have the patting back to the cheekbone, running upwards to the temple and then to the eyebrows
- Apply a little amount of lotion, and have the patting done from the neck to the jaw line
- Pat the corners of your mouth and then to the cheeks.

Lumene Excellent Future Deep Repairing Serum
October 6th, 2011
In terms of getting the job done with fighting aging, serums are the way to go. Many people ask what the point of using a serum is when you can always use a moisturizer with anti-aging ingredients. But the anti-age ingredients aren’t as potent when mixed with a product that is also tasked to moisturize your skin. So what goes on first, the serum or the moisturizer? You put the serum on first, and then the next layer is your moisturizer. When you have oily skin, sometimes a serum is a great way to have something to protect your skin and you can skip the moisturizer. We found that Lumene’s Excellent Future Deep Repairing Serum gave skin great texture and as promised reduced the depth of existing wrinkles. But what we liked most was that it’s fragrance free and 90% natural. We tried it on sensitive skin and didn’t see any irritation. If you haven’t heard of Lumene before, it’s a Finland based company that makes skincare from Artic berries and plants which are said to be very resilient.
