3.- Try giving to your community the spirit of this day.

The Perfect Red Lips

Red Lips

A lot of people think wearing a red lip is too bold for them or won’t go well with their skin—but red is actually one of the most universally flattering shades on skin! I think everyone should at least try it out once at home (if you don’t like it, you can take it right off)… Don’t hate till you try!
You may be pleasantly surprised!

Now for those of you wondering how to perfect a lusciously lovely red lip… Look no further—I’ll tell you how in just 5 easy steps!

Prep-Step: Be sure your lips are very smooth (exfoliate if you need to), conditioned and dry.

1.- Line:
  • Using a very sharp lip pencil (for a classic red look, use MAC Lip Pencil in Redd) carefully line your lower lip. I suggest starting from the outside of the mouth and lining inwards from each side. Then fill in the lower lip. (Warning: You might look a little silly at this point. LOL).
  • Next, line the upper lip starting from the Cupid’s bow and lining outwards all the way to the corners. Then color in the upper lip. Don’t stress about coloring your lips in perfectly—this is simply a base for the lipstick and will make the final color vibrant and full.

2.- Stick:
  • Using a lip brush (I suggest MAC 316 lip brush) apply a creamy lipstick (such as MAC Russian Red) all over your top and bottom lips. Be sure to fill in your lips completely.
3.- Gloss:
  • Apply a thin layer of tinted gloss (I love MAC Dazzleglass in Love Alert) over the top and bottom lips.
  • Then apply a clear gloss to the center section of the bottom lip (I recommend Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme in Sheer Clear… a little added pluming action never hurt anyone).
4.- Clean:

  • To prevent feathering (color beading beyond the lip line) apply concealer (I use NW20 MAC concealer and a MAC 195 concealer brush) all the way around the lip. Get as close to the lip line as possible without pulling the color out. This step will help set the color in place, too.
5.- And... Bam!

  • Blend the concealer around your mouth and BAM—you’ve got some killer red lips!
EXTRA TIP: To make your teeth look whiter, use a red lipstick with a blue undertone—orange undertones usually enhance the yellow in your teeth!

If you decide to give the red lip a try, upload a picture of your pretty red pout to the comments below or write a request!

Rapunzel, Tips for growing out your hair!

Some friends (girls), are sad because they cut there hair short, and they want long hair, you would be thinking "Put some extensions girls". But that's not the point, you want your hair to grow strong and natural, so if you want your hair to be longer, you'll need some tips...

 1) It would sound disgusting, but I investigate and one of the more important things is ake Flaxseed Oil or a Fish Oil softgel every night before bed. Fish Oil is filled with Omega-3s, and is especially good if you don't eat a lot of fish—it’s super good for your heart and hair!

2) Some proffesional hair stylists suggests applying a heat protectant spray when using heated styling tools. Heat protectant is something I often forget to use, but it is really important to protect your strands against damage. If you protect your hair from the time it is a baby hair at your root it will have a long and happy lifespan, and be able to grow much longer than if you abuse it for years.

3) Don’t wash your hair every day—you need some of those natural oils to help facilitate growth.

4) Maintain a healthy diet by eating lots of fruits and vegetables. Remember, beauty comes from the inside. In a way, you are what you eat. If you feed yourself lots of healthy nourishing foods your body will reflect this.

5) Use a “deep conditioning treatment.” This will help hydrate strands and make them stronger.

6) Massage your scalp while washing your hair. This stimulates blood flow to the scalp, which promotes growth. I do this every time I shower, I know it's good for my hair plus it feels so good!

7) And the last tip is to be patient! I know everyone says this, but it is true. If you follow all of these steps and take extra care with your hair, it will grow.

Well that was some tips that I can tell you guys, if you know more tips, please live a comment or send it to my mail: kmk.lvmk@hotmail.com

Makeup tutorial for girls who have never worn makeup!!!


 

 

 

 

 
Well I am so happy because a girl tha had check out my blog, called Samantha send me a mail. I am so happy because is the first girl that have sent me a mail for help or requests.

 
So her requests, well it really was a question, but the point is that she need help because she is entering to High School and she have nbever worn makeup, and she needs some basic tips.

 
( This a post for everyone, I hope this post help any girl that have the same issue)
So let's start...

 
If you're starting to wear makeup, obviously you don't want to look like a clone so here are some basics tips:
  • If you have some pimples that you don't want people to see i recommend you wearing a bit of sheer foundation/tinted moisturizer with SPF - it provides light coverage without looking heavy and is important for protecting your skin against UV damage.Wearing foundation is not something really important, if you don't like foundation, don't use it. Some examples:
Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer
$42 - bloomingdales.com
  • Shape your brows, you can do it or with tweezers or with a pencil or conceiler shaper eyebrow. Some examples:
Tweezerman Starlight Foundation Mini Slant Tweezer
Tweezerman Starlight Foundation Mini Slant Tweezer
$15 - sephora.com


  

 
  • Wear mascara - It draws attention to the eyes. Some examples:
Stila Forever Your Curl Mascara
Stila Forever Your Curl Mascara
$22 - macys.com
  •   Wear brown eyeliner - it's less harsh than black eyeliner and draws attention toward the eyes. Don't wear so much.
Shiseido Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil - BR602
Shiseido Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil - BR602
$29 - barneys.com

  • Wear Peach- toned blush, depending on your skin tones, Peach is a good color blush, it works with any outfit and season. Some examples:
NARS Blush - SexAppeal
NARS Blush - SexAppeal
$27 - barneys.com

  • Wear lipgloss, it would make you lips look fresh, pretty and sexy.

Lancome - Neutral colors and perfect Eyebrows!

Lancome as you know is a makeup brand. It's really good! 

Lancome - Neutral colors
A set made by me in: www.polyvore.com
In Polyvore there's a competition of creating a set with Lancome eye palets and you could win a trip to New York and go shopping with to models from the Lancome brand, I have done 2 sets, I am showing the second set in other post. Hope you enjoy my sets.


I really like neutral eye palets, you can match with everything, and you can use it casual or elegant or if you want, you can wear it with many outfits as you can. If you can see in the picture you may get noticed that the eyebrow is perfect, if you don't like your eyebrows and you would like your eyebrows to be more shaped an filled up, you need an eyebrow shaper pencil(a pencil) or an eyebrow powder(like a type of a brown, black,etc. powder) like this one:
You can buy a eyebrow pencil in Wall Mart, Drugstores or any makeup store. This are some examples:Shiseido Natural Eyebrow Pencil
Shiseido Natural Eyebrow Pencil
$20 - macys.com

And for eyebrow powders:

Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zings Dark
Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zings Dark
$30 - sephora.com
NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder :: Eyebrow :: Eyes :: Cherry Culture :: Makeup Cosmetics
NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder
$6 - cherryculture.com




But the one that I use, that is my favourite, really good quality, is a bit expensive, but it's worth it. Here's a picture:

Too Faced Brow Envy Brow Shaping & Defining Kit
Too Faced Brow Envy Brow Shaping & Defining Kit
$35 - sephora.com
Well I really like it because it came with like diferents models for your eyebrows, also all the colors you need, 3 brushes and like a little pencil and with an instruction kit.

Hope it helps, please leave requests in the comments.
Please follow me, you would make my day!

Leathers, Furs - Is so IN!!

Take the stairs!
Have you noticed, furs and  leathers are invading runways, celebrities, magazines, etc.

That's because is so IN, putting a little touch of furs on your outfit, like in the picture, I suppose that the outfit is casual but the pop is the cheetah.

What are the things you can't do in your outfit?

Is so OUT to have like an entire outfit with cheetah or leopard furs. That doesn't look good, imagine a girl wearing cheeah everywhere, I'm not saying that using furs is bad, I'm trying to say that putting only a little touch of fur is so edgy and fashionable. Include items like shoes of fur or a clutch, or simple accesories like this ones:
Cheetah Print Cashmere ScarfTOM - LEOPARD PONY CLUTCH ACCESSORIESElegantly Waisted Cheetah Lauper Canvas Waist Belt

Include this accesories, but only one in the hole outfit, try doing the outfit simple.

Bye, hope it helps. Thanks for all your support!!
Leave in the comments requests and what you think!!
