Select Color According to Your Skin Tone

Color of your dress should be matched with your skin tone. Selection of color according to your skin tone will flatter your personality. If you have golden skin tone then warm tones such as gold or orange will look best on you. If your skin tone is reddish or pink then it is good to use cool tones such as blue and purple to have more flattering look. In men, the strong colors are suitable for dark skinned man while men with medium skin tone should use earth tones in dresses. Fair skinned men can wear black tones.

Organize Your Wardrobe

Buy cosmetics

Buy cosmetics

A study carried out using facial creams by the University of the Basque Country shows that people who use cosmetics buy cosmetic products primarily due to emotional reasons. The scientists carried out personal surveys on 355 women aged between 18 and 50, who were selected in a random sample. The candidates were asked to evaluate various aspects of their perceptions of the functional and emotional factors of the cosmetics they used, as well as their degree of satisfaction with them.

“The study showed that both the emotional and utility aspect of cosmetic brands had a significant impact on consumer satisfaction, but that the emotional component has a greater effect,” Vanessa Apaolaza, a researcher from the UPV and lead author of the study, which has been published in the African Journal of Business Management, quoted. Some of the main positive emotions aroused by beauty products include “the sensation of wellbeing gained from eliminating or reducing feelings of worry and guilt, which is the factor with the greatest impact,” the author explained.

Overall, the results indicated that “consumer satisfaction is greatest when the cosmetics brand helps to strengthen positive emotions through the perception of ‘caring for oneself’ and removing feelings of worry and guilt about not taking care of one’s appearance,” says Apaolaza.

Paradoxically, in order for the brand to provide this positive emotional experience, it must first cause consumers to have negative feelings about themselves, such as concern about and dissatisfaction with their appearance. “One way of achieving this is by subtly telling them they are ugly — something that many cosmetics adverts achieve implicitly and very effectively by showing images of unusually beautiful women,” the study pointed out. “The theory of social comparison has been used in various research studies to explain how using very attractive models in advertising can affect consumers,” says Apaolaza. “The basic premise of these studies is that consumers compare their own level of physical attractiveness with that of the models used in adverts, and that these comparisons give rise to negative effects in the way they perceive their own physical attractiveness and on their self-esteem. These effects are most heightened among people with the greatest awareness of their public image,” she adds. The study points to the need to eliminate these negative emotions and to soothe women’s worries about looking good as one of their main psychological motivations for buying cosmetics.

There are many such instances that can be quoted here, one that caused huge wave in the market during early 2000’s was the launch of the Unilever’s Dove campaign for real beauty. This campaign aroused a huge debate and also tested Dove’s message authenticity. On one hand Dove encourage women to think they are beautiful, but on another they showed through their commercial that women need make up to showcase their beautifulness.

Our emotions often dictate our decisions. In our buying behaviour, we make emotional decisions and justify them rationally. These emotions are in part learned and in part instinctive,” points out Apaolaza.

For example, one thing that could explain the importance assigned to the unconscious emotional desire “to be attractive to the opposite sex, to be sexually attractive,” and which encourages people to buy cosmetics, can be found in one of the most basic programs of the human being, explained in the Darwinist approach to attraction — beautiful faces and well-formed bodies are important biological indicators of a person’s value as a sexual partner.

Of the emotional brand-related components studied, “the positive feeling gained from experiencing greater success in social interactions” has the greatest impact on pleasure, the author says.

From a utility perspective, the researchers found that the design of the bottles or containers (attractive, making the product or brand seem technically superior, exceptional and unique) also has an impact on purchasing decisions.

“These results serve as a recommendation to the market to use persuasive strategies focused more on emotional aspects than functional ones,” the researcher concludes

Party Makeup - 13 Common Mistakes That Can Totally Ruin Your Party Night

So you are going out on a party with friends but you are worried about your "party makeup"? You remember that last time you went out, your makeup was a disaster? Shouldn't you worry anymore, because I am about to reveal you the 13 biggest mistakes girls usually do when applying their makeup for the party night. I will also show you the things you should and shouldn't do!

1. The first mistake happens before you even apply your party makeup and it's called "the rush"! Going out in a club can be a very exciting and interesting adventure which can even change your life for good. It can happen that you meet the love of your life or new wonderful friends. But it can also mean that nobody notices you. You just don't stand out from the crowd. Many times I hear complaints from girls that they are never noticed in the club parties. So it is VERY important that you don't rush with your makeup. Take your time, it's YOUR party makeup we are talking about here. As a professional makeup artist I never rush, I always take as much time as I need, unless there are of course different circumstances. Even I make mistakes when I'm not focused.
2. Some girls forget to wash their face with cold water and apply moisturizing lotion before the makeup. It is very important that you wash your face with cold water because this will stimulate the blood circulation in your skin, which makes it ready for the makeup. Also applying moisturizing lotion is important because your makeup will last longer. Don't forget to apply the lotion massaging it into the skin, again, because of the blood circulation. This will perfectly prepare your skin for your upcoming party makeup.
3. After the lotion, don't immediately apply the foundation. If you have skin problems like pimples or acne you should know that applying concealer for party makeup takes it's place BEFORE the foundation. For party makeup you have to choose the green colored concealer. If you don't have one, then skip this routine and apply the concealer close to your foundation tone AFTER the foundation application. But if you do have the green concealer, apply it directly on the problematic portions of your skin. Watch out how much material you apply, don't apply too much because this will be noticeable later and also will be greatly noticeable on the photos.
4. Next big mistake happens when choosing the foundation color. Sometimes girls chose darker foundation than their skin tone. For party makeup it is very important that you choose foundation that is little lighter than your skin tone. Specially if there are strong ultra violet lights in the club, your face could look very dark, and it would mean a disaster if you choose darker foundation.
5. Now the foundation application. If you applied the green concealer, never rush with your foundation. Don't make a mistake by applying your foundation in left and right motions, because it will totally ruin your party makeup. You will displace the concealer you applied before. It's time to apply foundation with wet sponge. Apply it on the sponge. Now you press the sponge on a single spot and move it just very little to one side. This is how you apply the foundation. Just repeat the process. It is time consuming but it is well worth the effort. You won't displace your concealer which is under your foundation and your party makeup will look gorgeous.
6. Choosing strong eyeshadow or lipstick colors is very important. Girls do complain that their party makeup doesn't look much different than their usual daily makeup. It is because they usually choose too light and soft colors. For clubs and parties you have to choose strong colors. Just one caution. Don't make your eyeshadows and lipstick colors to clash. If they both are too strong, the makeup can look artificial. There are however exceptions where both colors can be strong and still look gorgeous.
7. Don't forget to lighten the area under your eyes if you have dark circles. You can use white eyeshadow for this, just watch you don't apply to much of it. Or you can use lighter concealer.
8. Big mistake, to make! No darker blush colors compared to your lipstick color, please! Only once I did this mistake. I applied darker blush than the lipstick color was and the girl looked like someone hit her on her face. This can totally ruin everything. Go easy on blush!
9. Don't be afraid to use sparkles, it is very cool for parties, so you can become the star of the night!
10. Did you notice that your face glows very bright, on the photos, compared to your body? This is another big thing girls usually don't know why it's happening. Because the foundation and concealer reflect the light from flashes, your face glows on the photos while your body absorbs the light. Put some foundation and sparkles on your upper body, like shoulders and cleavage, if they are visible of course. This way your body will also reflect the light, you will reach brightness balance and look truly gorgeous on the photos.
11. Watch that you don't make a line on your neck, with your foundation. Take your time and make good blending with your neck tone. If you need, use pressed powder which will help you hide the line.
12. No use of pressed powder foundation. Girls always ask why their faces glow so much on the photos. This is different than the glow I explained before. The one I was talking about earlier is just the difference between face and body brightness. But this is when your face just glows way too much on photos. It happens if you don't apply pressed powder foundation. For party makeup you must use it. It makes your face absorb some portion of the light. Apply it the same way you applied the foundation, just with a dry sponge instead. And remember that you have to apply your pressed powder foundation before the lipstick. The lipstick is the last thing you put on yourself. You can also apply little of this foundation on your body, it looks great there.
13. The last big mistake girls do is when they apply their lipstick. Your lips are your poisonous weapon you can use to seduce your targets. So that's why you have to calibrate this weapon to hit the target. Girls usually forget that lips have these natural pores which must be visible to look natural. Putting too much lipstick on your lips will even out the pores and make them invisible. This causes unnatural and plastic look of your lips, which totally ruins your party makeup. Other people get an impression that you just put too much of your makeup on and that it doesn't look cool. I will tell you how to make your lips totally sexy and seducing that nobody can resist. Chose your color and apply your lipstick. Blot your lips with a tissue paper after the application of lipstick, to remove the unnecessary material. Now that you have your lipstick on and the pores visible put a crystal clear lipgloss on your lips. This will totally make your lips go "kiss me"! That's it! Based on my personal research, these are the 13 most common mistakes girls make to ruin their party night. Follow my advice and you will become the star of the night!

Her waterline was filled in with black eyeliner and her lower lash-line smudged with a bit of Wedge eye-shadow as well. I finished off the eye make-up with false lashes, mascara and a fine line on her upper lash using a gel eyeliner called Blacktrack, also by MAC.

Face: I used Armani’s Luminous Silk foundation in number 7 all over after moisturising her already flawless skin. I lightly contoured her face using Xen-Tan’s bronzing powder and applied a shimmery peach blush on her cheeks called Super Orgasm by Nars to give her a gorgeous, glowing natural flush.

Lips: I used a soft powder pink lipstick called Snob by MAC blended in with another MAC lipstick called Girl About Town, an electric pink with a hint of purple.

Best Eye Shadow 4 Hazel Eyes

Best Eye Shadow 4 Hazel Eyes

Knowing what eye shadow goes best with hazel eyes can help you look gorgeous and captivating year round. If you have hazel eyes and are looking for the perfect eye shadow for both day and evening wear, there are numerous options available to you. Follow these tips and tricks to achieve simply stunning eyes.

Understanding What Eye Shadow Best Goes with Hazel Eyes

Women with hazel eyes are able to enjoy a wide spectrum of shadow shades due to the flecked hues they possess. Hazel is a unique eye color with individual color nuances that can vary dramatically. This eye color can handle many shades of eye makeup; while many of the shades for brown eyes are well-suited to hazel-eyed women, colors that work for blue and green eyes can work for hazel as well.

Neutral Colors

Women with hazel eyes look gorgeous in neutral colors such as brown. Brown-based shades give a fail-proof, gorgeous look every time.

Pink is also considered to be a member of the brown family, though few realize it. Use a romantic pink, especially in the spring or in the winter when you want to look irresistibly rosy and play up the color in your eyes. Cream, beige and taupe are also foolproof neutrals for hazel eyes. Grey and black are other shades that can also really make hazel eyes stand out; just be careful not to overdo these dark colors for daytime.

Purple Eye Shadow

Often suggested for brown eyes, purple shades make a stunning contrast to hazel eyes, too. Shades such as lilac, lavender, violet, plum and even eggplant can really make your eye color pop. Pair it with a purple liner for a more dramatic effect.

Gold and Yellow

Sunny shades also work nicely with hazel eyes and draw attention to their rich golden tones. Consider shades such as:

• Gold shimmer
• Sunflower
• Mustard
• Wheat
• Saffron
• Sand

The Perfect Combination

Many hazel-eyed women who have mastered the art of eye shadow swear by a combination of pinks, browns and occasionally greens. Other colors can also look great on hazel eyes, but in order to keep the selection process down to a reasonable level, these are three of the most recommended shades.

Makeup Corner Makeup Corners for Make-up Artists, Beauticians and Stylists www.cantonionline.com

Pinks and browns both play up the base color of hazel and eyes and work well together. If you have green in your eyes, pick up and make the most of this fleck with green eye shadow that reflects the tone and color of your eyes. Use the three colors together, in pairs or separately to create a look that is tailored to your eye color.

To use the three together, apply the pink directly under the brow bone, and line the crease of your eye with the brown. Finally, fill in the lid with green for a look that makes your eyes pop without being overly dramatic. Other ways to use these shades include using two shades of pink, one on the lid and one beneath the brow with a dark brown on the crease and using a light tan on the brow with green on the lid and a darker brown on the crease.

Choosing Eye Shadow Shades

It's important to purchase the right brand of cosmetics to ensure the right hue for your eyes. MAC has an excellent shade palette for most eye colors. In fact, learning what eye shadow best goes with hazel eyes leads most seekers to the MAC counter. Shroom is a recommended base color and Shag is a favorite hue for the crease and/or outer corner of the eye. Use Cubic Blush as a liner and add a little fun to your makeup regime with MAC's Trixie, the latest pink shimmer that can be used on both your eyes and cheeks.

Another brand to consider is Stila. Besides being available on their own official site, you can also purchase their gorgeous plum-brown shadows through Sephora. Try Sun or Kitten for your first layer, then check out Heath or Eden for your inner color.

Lastly, Almay Intense I-Color is a favorite among women looking for a personalized color palette. Almay has really hit their marketing stride with I-Color's featured trios for each and every eye color, and hazel is no exception. Using a dramatic yet funky combo of light brown, deep brown and baby pink, Almay's trio complements hazel eyes perfectly.

Be Careful of Blue

If you have hazel eyes, avoid using an excessive amount of blue-hued shadow. Blue eye shadow, when applied properly, and on the right skin tones, looks great. For your eye color, however, it's advised that you steer clear (you run the risk of just looking garish).

For some, blue shadow is great for a special occasion if you are looking to dramatize your evening look, however, it can dull down hazel eyes and have the opposite effect of what you hope to achieve. Stick to your browns and invest in a darker liquid liner for evenings; you will be sure to have a winning sparkle to your evening eyes every time.

Inexpensive Beauty Tricks

Inexpensive Beauty Tricks

Whenever a thought of salon styling comes into the mind, you start looking on the budget. Well, if it’s allowing those expenses this month? If no, you don’t need to worry anymore as here we are going to discuss some tips from the stylists’ diary.

These tips are completely affordable and perfect for maintaining that dazzling look of yours.

Inexpensive Beauty Tips from Experts:

• Maintain Those Brushes- Good makeup brushes can serve you for years. But all you need to do is the proper cleaning of these with some shampoo or mild detergent. To keep the makeup brushes in top shape, don’t let them sit with the cosmetic products, as these can damage the bristles permanently. 

• Instead Of Redoing, Refresh The Look- Removing the entire makeup and redoing the whole seems foolishness. So after a mid-day, just moist the face with a toner and pat it dry with a facial tissue. After that, dust it with some loose powder to add a velvety finishing touch. 

• Skip Those Expensive Body Scrubs- When a spa treatment is beyond the budget, a silky smooth flawless look can also be achieved at home. Just mix a part of olive oil with 2 parts of sugar and add some essential oil. Now message the body with this mixture and take a warm shower. This homemade scrub will act greatly on the skin. 

• Prepare Your Lips- Whenever lip color is applied, it is very important to have flake-free smooth lips. So if you want to skip the lip scrub, mix vanilla extract with some brown sugar and olive oil.

Dark Lips

Dark Lips

Dark Lips and Light Lipsticks

The no makeup look is really pretty, but people with dark lips struggle with achieving this look because the required nude lipstick or light pink lipstick does not blend well with the natural lip color.

If you have dark lips and want to use lighter lipstick shades what you need to do is to neutralize your lip color before applying lipstick. Neutralizing your lip color is easy. All you need to do is apply a thin layer of foundation or concealer over your lips evenly. Once your lips look pale, you can then use any lipstick shade your like and top it off with clear lip gloss.

The only problem with neutralizing your lip color this way is that foundation and concealers tend to dry out your lips. So make sure you always take care of your lips and moisturize it with lip balm before putting on the foundation and after removing your lipstick. You can also substitute a nude colored lip liner for the foundation to prevent this problem.

Depending on the type/brand of collagen supplement that you take, the amount of collagen to take depends on the dosage recommended for your age.

Does Collagen Drink Work? Do Collagen Capsules Work?

However, the results are still debatable those collagen supplements and drink work and do improve the appearance of your skin although recent studies shown seem to back up the promise in delivering your skin as tight and supple as before. Such arguments include that collagen molecule is too large and cannot be absorbed to your skin and even it’s absorb, there’s no guarantee that it’s assimilated to the body.

To be in the safe side, it’s important that you have plenty of foods that are known to boost your collagen production such as alpha lipoic acid and Vitamin C – content foods as well as lysine in your diet to encourage collagen supplements to work its wonders to your skin. And of course, don’t forget to follow the instruction of your collagen supplements for it to work.

Skin Care Resolutions

Skin Care Resolutions

We all know that ageing is irreversible as our skin ages biologically. It’s something we need to live with and accept.  But the good news is that we can slow down the ageing process and still look ten years younger than our chronological age if we look after ourselves, starting now. 

Dr Sahana, Dermatologist, Kaya Skin  Clinic, a leading skin expert in the region recommends practical steps to maintain skin as it ages and to reduce the effects of external factors – like sun exposure and chronic stress – that could add and accelerate the process: 

These skin-care resolutions for 2009 are simple and inexpensive: 

• Replace old, used beauty products with new ones: It is recommended to discard  the products that have been opened  a year ago, as bacteria is transferred from our fingers to  the jars of face creams which  has consequential effect of growth of micro-organisms. 
• Quit smoking:  Smokers tend to get more vertical wrinkles above the lip, due to puckering of the mouth and also lines get formed around the eyes to keep the smoke out. Thus, it is highly suggested that one should give up on smoking as it will keep the premature wrinkles at bay, the end result is assurance of healthy skin and the added bonus is healthy lungs too!  
• Leave the pimples alone and avoid zit-popping: Squeezing the acne actually results in pushing the bacteria deeper into the skin, causing further inflammation and pigmentatary changes. The worse is scarring of the face. 
• Sleep More: Our skin needs sleep too, as stress may impair the skin’s barrier function, which keeps bacteria out and water in. Adequate sleep-hours and cleansing of the make-up before one sleeps is mandatory.  The other effects of sleep deprivation and stress are hair loss, and skin diseases like eczema.  
• Sunscreen: To make sunscreens our best friend in skin wear. In addition to this, limit our exposure to mid-afternoon sun and always wear protective shades such as sun glasses, umbrellas and hats.  As sunscreen usage inhibits pigmentation and freckles caused by direct exposure to the sun. The  worse fear is skin cancer, thus using sunscreen regularly can impede the development of squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer  
• Simplify your beauty regime:  Start your day with cleansing, toning and moisturise. Its an age old adage, yet goes a long way in preventing the skin from getting wrinkled before its time. As said before, a sunscreen or moisturizer containing sunscreen is the most crucial element of the beauty regime. Also wash your face every evening before going to sleep, as the skin picks up environmental debris during the day and washing- off these dirt particles, along with makeup, every evening gives the skin a rest from exposure to possible irritants.

  Last but not least, have a total lifestyle change:

• 1. Pamper your eyes as they are our vision to the world and the index of the face: We constantly misuse our eyes by chronic exposure to computers, environmental pollutants which is in-escapable. But taking a 10 minute break for every hour of staring into the screen helps to reduce those dark circles.
• 2. Minimise aerated drinks, coffee and tea as it will help to keep the skin healthy.
• 3. Drink loads of water. It is the life line to every being and gives life to skin as well. Recommended intake is least 2-3 liters a day.
• 4. Exercises at least 2-3 times a week. Healthy body and healthy skin always go together.
• 5. To balance the daily diet with generous servings of fruits, salads, nuts, leafy vegetables, lean meat (fish & chicken). This invariably helps the skin, and adds luster to the hair.
• 6. Develop mind over matter as benefits of positive attitude and meditation are not to be underestimated in their contribution towards glowing ski
