Beauty Tips & Advice
Every virtual woman deserves to feel beautiful no matter what! Sophistication can be represented not only in fashion, but also in make-up and skincare. I will continue to bring you beauty tips that you can use with variety of styles and colors if you like to brighten things up from time to time, so that you can continue to have that sophisticated look and feel.
What's Better: Powder foundation
or Liquid foundation?
When it comes to
choosing the right foundation you have to pick the one right for your skin
type, but the question is which foundation should you pick powder or liquid?
This can help your choice a little easier.
Powder Foundation: Can be illuminating or matte. Just like with liquid
choose the finish that fits your overall make-up look. Matte foundation looks
amazing with red lips and black eyeliner. Mineral foundations seem to work well
with oily skin types and matte is best for dry skin.
Exceptions: Women
with dry skin shouldn't use powder foundation as it settles into areas of
dryness or scaling and not only throws off the overall make-up look, but makes
you seem aged.
How Too Apply: Use a dry make-up sponge or buffing brush smearing it
into the powder and rubbing it into the skin. Putting too much will make the
foundation look caked onto the skin and cause aging as well.
Liquid Foundation: Works for any and every skin type, but the finishes range
from light to full coverage and dewy to matte. To even out your skin tone you
will want to choose a light coverage foundation, but if you want to conceal
imperfections get full coverage. If you want your skin to look radiant and
glowing choose a dewy, but if you want shine free skin choose matte.
Exceptions: Women
with oily skin should avoid dewy finish foundations and set any liquid
foundation with a translucent powder to reduce shine.
How Too Apply: You can use your hands, make-up sponge or brush to apply
the foundation. When using your hands rub the foundation in your palms and then
press the liquid onto the skin. A damp sponge will also give your skin that
natural look it needs blending it into your skin with the sponge, but when
using a brush will give more coverage, but be sure to blend so there are no
streak marks.
Which foundation do you prefer powder or liquid? Why?. My choice of
foundation has always been powder, because it’s not messy to remove and quicker
to apply.
~*Make-up Tips and Advice*~
Virtual women believe beauty is skin deep, but every now and then
applying a little make-up makes a girl feel extra beautiful that day although
the natural look is what most people prefer these days. Using make-up doesn’t
mean you have to apply a lot, because it’s your preference on how your make-up
should look. Blush: Is only used on the cheek bones to give your face more definition in your cheek bone structure. Personally I don’t use blush, because it’s not my style but it looks great on a lot of women and really defines the cheek bones. Using blush can give you the sophisticated old school look if your into that, but if not throw out the blush lol.
Eyeliner: Liquid or Pencil? Both eyeliners look the same when they are applied, but eyeliner is designed to make your eyes stand out, I haven’t ever used liquid eyeliner, but the way it looks when applied is very stylish and cute. Pencil is my choice of eyeliner, because it’s easier to use since you don’t have to continuously dip it into the liquid to finish your lines.
Eye Shadow: My favorite make-up lol. Having a different variety of colored shadows is a great idea to match with your outfit of the day. Smokey eyes are a good way to define your eyes and really make their color pop looking very sexy and mysterious. When choosing an eye shadow some have three steps to make the eyes look smokey and dark.
Lipstick Or Lip gloss: I don’t wear lipstick, but red is a fashion must lol, because combined with smokey dark eyes it defines your whole face making you look extraordinarily beautiful and younger. Lip gloss is for that glossy lips look that never gets old, but picking the right one can be difficult sometimes since clear lip gloss sometimes is way too thick making it dry quicker then others. Choosing the right lip gloss is easy, because you choose the type clear or colored and apply it to your lips as often as you like throughout your day to keep lips moist and plump.
Choosing the right make-up products isn’t always easy, because there are so many different brands to pick from, but knowing your skin type and skin tone should narrow down your selection so that you can decide which fits your make-up style the best. Never get a product just, because of the brand since your unsure of the side effects it can have on your skin and don’t share your make-up tools with another person to avoid having skin issues.
~*Skin Care Tips and Advice*~
Virtual women need to feel good in their own skin no matter what! I will
continue to bring you all the skin care information you need to keep your skin
looking radiant and glowing. Every virtual woman has glowing skin that is clean
and clear so enjoy these tips and advice.
~*Skin Care Information*~ When choosing skin care products take your skin type into consideration before choosing the product. Women with oily skin should use products marked for their type of skin to reduce the oil produced into the pores, but women with dry skin should use moisturizers for dry skin to reduce the flakey dry skin from appearing.
The first step to having flawless skin is to moisturize your skin two times a day, When you wake up and before bed. Always moisturizing your skin before and after bed will help your skin be healthy and radiant, because dirt and bacteria can get into your pores clogging them making the skin look dry, oily and cracked.
Don’t touch your face with dirty hands, because that can cause outbreaks of bumps or pimples. Dirty hands on a clean face can also cause oil to form from all the dirt on your hands combining with the dirt that’s already on your face and it forms bacteria bumps. Always put a moisturizing lotion on your face after washing it in the morning to keep your skin moisturized and soft. Good clear skin is healthy skin.
Top Skin Care Products: The best formulas to get strong
firm skin reducing the effects of sun-induced pigmentation included vitamin C,
retinol, glycolic acid and co-enzyme q10. Each of these formulas promote
healthy, glowing and younger looking skin with their unique special purpose for
the skin. So look for these ingredients when searching for your skin care
products. Remember to wash your face every day if you want
healthy and radiant skin and don’t touch your face with anything dirty. Watch
the food you eat as they can cause bump or pimple break outs that can be
difficult to control or get rid of.
~*How Too Have Great Skin*~
The good news about skin care is that it’s simple. Washing your face
doesn’t have to be a 10 step process anymore if you just go by the basics of
skin care:A. Cleansing: Getting rid of grime and chemicals while limiting the stress of daily cleansing.
B. Moisturizing: Hydrating and replenishing the
skin
C. Using Sunscreen: protecting the skin from harmful UV rays
· Soaps: Most annoying form of cleanser, but gets rid of dirt and grime the best
· Liquid: A wide variety of tolerability, but good for cleaning all but the oiliest skin
· Facial: The mildest, but may not remove all dirt and oil
Choose your cleansing products wisely since they all work in different
ways for different skin types and have very different levels of how good they
work. You have good options you just have to know what type of skin you have to
use them properly. You don’t have to feel dry to feel clean. Use the mildest
cleanser possible that still removes oil, dirt and debris.
Moisturizing: Is an essential step in skin
care. A good moisturizer can keep the dry skin process from turning into
flaking, thick and cracked skin. Moisturizers ingredients are meant to
replenish the skin’s natural ingredients that help maintain structure, cut down
damage from free-radicals and help the cells function more normally.
Ingredients include glycerol, ceramides, hydroxy acids and niacinamide.
~*How To Choose The Right Moisturizers*~
Make sure you pick one that goes with your skin type so that it can be
the most effective for your skin issues, because you will have healthier skin
if you pick a moisturizer with the right ingredients for your skin. Choose
wisely as like cleanser an moisturizer works in different ways for every skin
type.
Sunscreen: There are several factors to
consider when picking the right one for you like knowing how it works and what
level it protects you against UV rays. You worked hard to have great skin, but
don’t undo it by exposing it to UV radiation find a good broad spectrum sunscreen
and make applying it apart of your daily routine. Some people combine
moisturizers with their sunscreen for the ultimate protection for good skin.
~*Skin Secrets To Good Skincare*~
No smoking
It turns out that people who smoke and don’t use sunscreen have worse
skin, because it ages them quickly and the skin becomes more mottled giving the
skin more fine lines or wrinkles.
Use sunscreen
When your skin is protected from UV and UVB radiation it has more
leverage to become healthier, because those rays cause wrinkles and even skin
cancer. The sun can damage skin and cause sun spots that can turn into
cancerous lesions on the skin if not properly taken care of and less time being
spent directly under the sun without sunscreen spf 30+ protection.
Consider Retinoids
They unclog pores, clears acne, reduces fine lines, boost collagen
production, lighten brown spots and freckles and improves skin texture and can
even be used to treat precancerous lesions. Sold by prescription only. At first
it causes dryness, redness and flaking at first, but applying a pea sized
amount every second or third day can help the skin get use to the ingredients.
Or Consider any over the counter cream, gel or serum products with retinol,
they work more gradually and gently, but still very effective in rejuvenating
the skin.
Keep Skin Care Simple
Overuse of products is the biggest mistake most people make in their skin
care routines and wonder why their skin doesn’t look or feel great at all.
Using a lot of different products can irritate the skin and certain ingredients
in some products will cancel out each-others benefits so more isn’t better. The
products you need for beautiful skin is an simple cleanser, moisturizer,
sunscreen and retinoid or retinol, because the more simple your skincare
routine is the more likely you are going to stick to it.
~*Give Products Time To Work*~
Changing your products can also be counterproductive so give them a
chance using it all before deciding on how well it works. You might want to
swap skincare products seasonally so it is being used for the right weather
conditions. If your skin reacts badly to a new product your trying then you
should immediately stop using it and switch back to something that didn’t make
your skin react badly.
~*A Balanced Life Leads To A Life Of Your Best Skin*~
Having better eating habits play a part in how your skin looks and feels,
because certain ingredients cause outbreaks. A good exercise schedule keeps the
skin looking good and getting seven or more hours a sleep a night can help as
well. Stress also plays a huge part in having skin issues and reducing that
with yoga, meditation or something that keeps you relaxed can reduce your
number of outbreaks.
Skincare isn’t something we want to do every day, because it’s time
consuming and gets a little frustrating when you don’t see results as quickly
as you would like. Taking good care of your skin will have you feeling like a
sophisticated women in control of her life and beauty as long as you don’t give
up on the process it takes to get the results you want. Beauty is skin deep and
taking care of your skin properly is a key factor in looking and feeling at
your best, but you know what they say beauty starts from within YES I agree
with that, but beauty also starts with confidence.
