Red-Lipped Celebrities
Glamorous celebrities like Gwen Stefani, Scarlett Johansson and Christina Aguilera can rock their red lipstick on the red carpet, but you can pull it off everywhere else! Find out how to apply and wear red lipstick without looking like a clown!

Red Lipstick - Which Hue Are You?

The first thing you've got to figure out is if you're cool or warm, and it has nothing to do with your personality or popularity - it's about your skintone! Cool complexions are pale with pink undertones and tend to burn in the sun, whereas warm complexions have yellow, olive and darker undertones or tan easier in the sun.
  • If you have a cool complexion, choose cooler reds like a true red or a pinkish red.
  • If you have a warm complexion, choose warmer reds with a brown base, like a brick or rusty red.

Red Lipstick - How to Apply

A matte red can make you look too done-up, so go for a glossier red instead. Line and fill in your lips with a lip liner that closely matches your natural lip color. Apply lipstick, blot with a tissue and lightly dust your lips with powder to give it extra-staying power. Since red lips are dramatic, you should keep the rest of your face bare or else you'll look like you belong in the circus!

Red Lipstick - Red-Hot Tips

  • If your teeth are yellow, wearing a red shade with blue undertones will help make your pearly whites look a little more pearly and white.
  • Pair your red lips with either red nails or a red accessory, like a bag, belt or shoes.
  • The secret to wearing red lipstick is feeling comfortable. All it takes is confidence to back it up, so stand up straight and smile!

Australian sports journalist who said that it is "a joke" that our counrty hasn’t teamed up with Great Britain for the Olympic Games.

Australian sports journalist who said that it is "a joke" that our counrty hasn’t teamed up with Great Britain for the Olympic Games.


According to The Irish Independent Barwick said: "It's a whole Irish joke, the whole thing. It just makes no sense.
"We, the rest of the world, can't understand. It's like a Hawaiian surfer not claiming that he surfs for the USA.
"It's not like Tasmanians say they don't want to represent Australia. You're all part of the one mix master."
He said: "I understand the history of Irish politics. Well. . . I don't understand the history of Irish politics."



His comments came after the Daily Telegraph was forced to apologise yesterday for calling Katie Taylor British. After a storm on Twitter the newspaper tweeted: “We’re sorry for mistakenly describing the fantastic boxer Katie Taylor as British in our London 2012 section today. She is Irish, of course.”

The Irish Ambassador to Australia, Noel White, quickly fired off a letter of complaint to Fairfax Media which resulted in the article being amended and the headline changed. The journalist responsible apologised for writing it.

What Scents Attract a Man

Wouldn't it be lovely if you could simply put a dash of perfume on yourself and men will be held spellbound by you? You can be Pied Piper of Hamelin with men following you wherever you go.

Vanilla
Cinnamon
Lavender
Jasmine
Sandlewood

 Vanilla, believe it or not, is a aphrodisiac. The aroma is very sensual and sultry. They say give your man a drink with or cocktail with some vanilla in it and they will become very sexually aroused. There are so many fragrances out there containing vanilla. I use the Vanilla sugar body spray from Bath & Body Works. It smells so good and relaxing and subtle, I love it myself.



Now Cinnamon is another scent that is considered to be a aphrodisiac. It can be somewhat similiar to pheromones. It can be a very powerful sexual stimulator.
Did you know Cinnamon has a lot of health benefits that can help us live a healthy and long life?





How about Lavender?? When I think of lavender I think of relaxation as they do say lavender is calming. Lavender has always been associated with love and romance. It has a very sweet but somewhat fruity aroma to it.


Jasmine is a floral scent that is a aphrodisiac for both woman and men and is the most used fragrance in perfume industry. Jasmine fragrance also boosts libido, self-esteem and sexual interest.





Now for sandlewood, this fragrance is a sweet, strong, and can be used in different sexual practices and enhancing physical sensuality and making lovers more sexually-liberated.

Noise level at Katie Taylor fight was highest recorded at London 2012 so far

Noise level at Katie Taylor fight was highest recorded at London 2012 so far



The decibel level during Katie Taylor’s fight with Natasha Jonas this afternoon hit 113.7 – the highest recorded at London 2012 so far.
An International Olympic Committee official said the noise surpassed the sound recorded during

GB's win in the cycling finals at the Velodrome last week.
The noise of a jet engine is around 140 decibels.
When Taylor's name was mentioned for the first time a full 90 minutes before her fight, London's ExCel boxing arena shook with a roar that one Irish fan said could even be heard at the nearby wrestling arena.

Inside the arena, fans witnessed the best atmosphere at a fight at the Games so far, as the crowd exchanged chants of 'Team GB and 'Ole, Ole, Ole',
While British fighters have boxed in front of partisan crowds every day so far, Jonas' supporters were vastly outnumbered and outsung by the Irish fans, with a huge number of tricolours to be seen around the venue.

Back home, more than 6,000 boxing fans lined Bray seafront to see Taylor guarantee at least a bronze at the Olympics.
There was a great atmosphere as the champion fighter's Olympic debut was shown on an open-air big screen.

The boxer looked every inch a gold medal winner in waiting. She was briefly troubled in the second round but extended her advantage in a final two-round battering that saw Jonas receive two standing counts, thanks to a couple of thunderous right hands from the Bray boxer..

The eyebrows are very important and should be maintained. The eyebrows provide a frame for the eyes and if they look imperfect, so do your eyes. Brows should be kept plucked and waxed to create the right angel to show off your eyes.
Under Eye ConcealerPut a crescent-moon of concealer under each eye. Start at the inner corner of the lower eyelid and drag the concealer stick or your finger to the outer corner and tapered at the ends. This will hide any dark circles or discoloration and will bring focus to your beautiful blue eyes!

Shimmer
Add a dot of shimmer or sparkly light eyeshadow to the inner corner of each eye to make those blue eyes pop!



   Eyeshadows For Brown Eyes         

If you want to achieve a natural look for brown eyes, you can try eyeshadows in neutral colors such as browns, taupes, peaches, etc. When selecting eyeliner, you can go with dark browns for a natural look and black for a more intense look.

Pencil: One of the easiest and less messy eyeliners to use is a pencil eyeliner. You do not need a brush to apply and have no fear of smudging. Just sharpen your pencil and you are ready to apply a sharp colored eyeliner to your eyes.
Liquid Eyeliner: This is one of the most commonly used eyeliner types. You need to apply it using a brush. Make sure you use a eyeliner with the thinnest brush to give a well defined and thin line on your eyes. There are two types of liquid eyeliners, one that is in a small bottle and the other is a felt-tip liquid eyeliner that has the simple application as that of a pencil eyeliner and the precision of the liquid liner

Step 3: Brush on a lavender shadow most intensely at the lashline, then blends it toward the browbone.

Katie Taylor

The lightweight three/four times World Champion and five times European Champion will face new opponents in London. Taylor is the strong favourite for the 60kg weight division, always has been the favourite and will continue to be the favourite despite the migration of other boxers into her weight category.

Because only three divisions will be fought for at The Excel Arena this summer (flyweight, lightweight, middleweight), those in heavier weight division boxers, who believe they can come down to 60kg, will do so for the inaugural Olympic event.
Taylor is the most explosive amateur in the world and has been named the best female boxer in the sport twice. Her dominance since her first European Championship in Norway in 2005 has not diminished, with qualification in China probably arriving easier than she had expected, Romania’s Michaela Lacatus defaulting because of injury in the quarter-finals and handing Taylor the qualification ticket.

Coached by her father Peter, the former international soccer player and Leeds supporter is Ireland’s strongest medal candidate at the Games.

The perfect eyebrow shape for you can frame your face, and make you look fab! Arches can create a more defined and symmetrical look to your face. Keep reading to learn more!

Skinny or patchy brows? Keep on reading, and learn how to fill-in your "dream brows."

How to fill in your brows:

Before you do anything -- Make sure you apply primer to your brows and brow bones so that the fill-in colors stay in place.
I also recommend doing your eyebrows before applying make-up to the rest of your face. (After priming, before foundation)


Step #1. Brush and trim your brows.

Step #2. Use a brow pencil one shade lighter than your hair color, and lightly draw in your desired brow shape according to the guide above. REMEMBER to only make light horizontal stroke as we are trying to achieve a natural look.

Step #3. Start to fill in your brows using light strokes with the same pencil, or you can use a powder to fill them in.

Step #4. Clean up your brows by applying a foundation the same color as your skin on the tops and bottoms of the brows.

Step #5. Blend in the foundation in an outward motion away from the brows.

Step #6. Brush your brows with a spoolie brush to give it a more natural-hair look.

Step #7. Lightly apply translucent powder over your new brows to set in the foundation and fill-in color. You can also use a brow gel, or clear mascara.

Your brows are now all done!

Achieving Goals – Weight Loss

Achieving Goals – Weight Loss. There are so many weight loss programs available that it is usually very confusing for most people and with too many conflicting suggestions that are difficult to adjust to, many people just give up on trying for weight loss. Let’s look at achieving goals and weight loss hand in hand so that success can be achieved for once and for all!

Eat Breakfast – eating breakfast will kick start the metabolism to get the body’s energy level up and to help it start to burn calories. Avoid skipping meals as this will have the opposite effect – and weight gain is much more likely since the body recognizes no food coming in and actually stores what you previously fed it as fat since it’s not sure when you’ll feed it again. Choose fiber and protein such as oatmeal and yogurt for a healthy weight loss breakfast.

Eat Small Frequent Meals to lose weight – food is energy and in order to lose weight, you must keep the body supplied with fuel and energy that keeps the metabolism moving. Try eating every three hours with healthy choices such as lean protein, fresh vegetables for healthy carbohydrates and fresh fruit for vitamins and minerals.

Exercise – exercise will help to burn calories at a much faster pace than eating the right foods alone will. For faster and effective weight loss try any kind of exercise for 30 minutes a day.

Avoid eating before bedtime – snacking should stop three hours before bed for healthy weight loss. Choose cheese sticks and fresh fruit an an option or peanut butter on celery sticks or fresh apple. A protein with fresh fruit or vegetables is yummy tasting and will help to reduce those unwanted pounds.

Drink Water – water helps to flush the body of toxins and assists in weight loss. Water will also help you to feel fuller longer avoiding the need to eat.

Sleep Makes Your Prettier

By now, you’ve probably heard a million times how important sleep is for your health and your overall quality of life. But, hey, we know that work and life stresses often impede the amount of quality sleep you can get. So, how can you ensure that you can fall asleep easily and make it count towards better beauty too?
Avoid Alcohol Before Bed
This tip may crush many dreams (as I myself love a glass of wine before bed), but new studies have shown that while a few sips of your favorite merlot make you sleepy, it prevents you from entering your deepest stage of sleep. And, of course, it’s that deep stage that is truly the most restorative.
Use A Satin Pillow Case
Ohhh. I think you may need to go shopping for some new linens. It’s for your own good after all. Satin will help you wake up with smooth skin, as it doesn’t cause it to crease. Also, satin is better about keeping your hair free from those pesky tangles.

Make Sleep Work for You
If you’re going to be asleep, you might as well get some beauty benefits from it. Use an overnight teeth-whitening kit, and moisturize your hands and feet before bed. This will help you to wake up with prettier teeth and smoother skin than when you went to sleep. (If you have sensitive teeth, however, you might want to ask a dentist about wearing whitening kits all night, as it might be harmful to your teeth.

Sleep On Your Back







New studies have shown that sleeping on your back can actually prevent wrinkles, because your skin won’t acquire permanent creases that are hard to hide throughout the day.

Sleep Makes Your Prettier

It sounds crazy, but a recent study in Sweden found that people were considered more attractive by others when they got enough sleep. Scientists showed photos of the same person after a week of being well rested and a week of horrible sleep. Time after time, the photos of the well-rested people were considered more attractive. It sounds like a no brainer, but it’s good to have science back it up.

Lack of Sleep = Hunger










A recent study found that people who didn’t get enough sleep were actually hungrier during the day and therefore more prone to overeat and gain weight. So, get your beauty rest, ladies. It’s hard enough to avoid those cravings even after a great night’s sleep!




Spray Tans ARE Safe

Spray tans are safe
You may have read stories in the media today reporting on claims in the US that using self-tanning sprays may not be safe. We would like to allay any concerns these articles might have caused.
The most commonly used self-tanning ingredient is dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which chemically reacts with the amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) in the dead layer of the skin’s surface and causes a colour change which results in the ‘tan’ effect. DHA has recently been reviewed by the European Commission’s independent expert scientific committee (the SCCS), which advises the Commission on scientific matters and the safety of cosmetic ingredients. The SCCS looked at data to support the use of DHA in cosmetic formulations and also specifically its use in spray cabins.
The SCCS addressed the question of the product possibly being inhaled from self-tan sprays, and says “that the use of dihydroxyacetone as a self-tanning ingredient in spray cabins .... will not pose a risk to the health of the consumer”. The SCCS provides the maximum levels of DHA it reviewed – which reflect current use levels (10% in home-use cosmetic formulations and 14% in spray cabins).
As well as this endorsement on the safety of DHA itself from the SCCS, it is important to stress that in Europe the manufacture and import of all cosmetic products are covered by strict safety laws. There is a legal requirement that every cosmetic product must undergo a safety assessment before it is placed on the market. The assessment, carried out by specifically qualified assessors, covers all of the ingredients, the final product, how and where the product is to be used, how often and by whom.
The many consumers who enjoy sun-less tanning may continue to do so, confident in the safety of their products. It is important to remember though that self-tanning products don’t normally contain any sunscreens – so it is important to also use sun protection when going out in the sun.
