Ten hot fall trends

                        Ok beauties , this is a post about this fall s trends in makeup ,hair and nails.I received this e-mail today from this beauty/fashion sites , with ten hot trends for this season and i though of shring it with you .So here we go:









1.Vamp Nails
 
Manicurist Pattie Yankee for Dashing Diva said, "Dark nails are a statement.Vampy shades act as an especially bold command to take notice.

2.No-makeup makeup

With all the cosmetic tricks available to create a variety of believable illusions, it's no wonder that men often say they prefer a woman without makeup, as almost a truth serum of sorts. Yet in spite of this common declaration, studies show that men still pick women wearing makeup as more desirable when given the choice. The no-makeup makeup look cleverly delves deeper, convincing the opposite sex that facial attributes are naturally that beautiful--even though they've certainly had a little "help."





3.Braids
They're in!AGAIN!Braids evolved as a practical style to preserve hair health and thickness by protecting it against environmental assault, allowing you to grow strands longer and healthier than you otherwise would.





4.Red eyeshadow

Intense, red eye makeup isn't for everyone, but we applaud anyone who has the confidence to give it a try--being sure of yourself is the most attractive feature you can ever have.







5.Red Lips
They're in!Of course.From light red , to dark , burgundy to browny red , you shoudl try and wear them all , and see which ones are the ebst for you!hot!hot!hot!








6.Center Parts for the hair
At play here is the human preoccupation with facial symmetry, which is prominently enhanced when you center part your hair.








7.Color-Tipped Nails
Designers used reverse French manicure-like tips of color to lend a sense of luxury to shows. Backstage at Jason Wu where the gilded architecture of Versailles inspired the collection, cherry chocolate nails were carefully dipped in baroque gold. Historically, adorned hands have been a sign of higher-class value, soundlessly inferring that you can afford both the leisure of time and cost to luxuriate over your nails while others tend to the dirty work.






8,Volume , volume , volume!
"I love big hair because it communicates a sense of confidence and swagger," said Johnny Weir at Adrienne Landau. So why all the to-do about volume? Thick locks full of body are a sign of health, as nutrients like biotin are good for a crowning glory of hair.



9.Black Eyeliener

Yep!If youy eyes can take it , then give it to them!After all, it's the amount of contrast we subconsciously detect in a face that rapidly allows us to discern whether we're viewing a feminine (high contrast) or masculine (low contrast) face. By blending jet black kohl next to the whites of the eyes, you're dramatically upping both the contrast and the accompanying sense of femininity.






If you already tried them , what are your favourites from this trends and if not , which ones you plan to try?

The colours from this palette , even if some of them are matte , they all have kind of aglittery reflection , i don't know how to explain  , so you see they re matte not shimmery or frosty , but they have some very very little glittery particles in them.Not too much , and it's not even noticeable if you don't look very close to them , they are perfect anwyayz for everyday eyes and I highly reccoment them.

Make your own mixing medium(elf lock and seal)

       Ok guys , yesterday some dear ladies rembered me about a tip i know and i haven't shared with you.So i thought of doing a post exaplinig how you can get your own mixing medium like elf's Studio Lock and Seal or MAC Mixing Medium.
         You can use it with your eyeshadows , dip the brush into the mixing medium and then into a loose eyeshadow or in pigments , or an eyeshadow that that it's not that pigmented ,and then apply it to your eyes.It helps making the colour more alive , helps applying it without getting it all over your face , and locks it into the skin so that it lasts much more longer.
So the easiest way to make a mixing medium is by using two substances :glycerine and water.You can use normal glcerine or vegetable one , but it both should be in liquid form.Glycerine is basicly a humectant.That means  it captures moisture from the air and seals it into the skin.
      You need to  put one part glycerine and three parts water , but you should do it in little quantities ,because it doesn't have the additives that keep it good for a looong time  , so you shouldnt use it more than two three weeks.Remember to shake well before you use it , and there you have your mixing medium... xoxo.

Make up for : BLUE EYES

`Hello dollies.


Today's stop is blue eyes.People with blue eyes usually run up against the problem of choosing the right color that can accentuate the color of their eyes. Choose the right color and the brilliance of your blue eyes will knock people off their feet; but, choose the wrong one and your eyes could look pale and watery. 
So, what are the colors that can be used for eye makeup for blue eyes? There are a whole range of colors that you can safely experiment with, and a lot also depends on what kind of look you are trying to achieve – natural, dramatic, or classic.


Eyeshadow for blue eyes:


Colours:  use shades that contrast with the natural color of your eyes. Therefore, colors like gray, taupe, camel, browns, charcoal, blacks, pink, fuschia, copper, lilac, violet, silver, and gold would be your best bet. Unless you have really dark blue eyes, do not apply blue eye shadow. They are bound to make the colors of your eyes pale in comparison.

Suggestions:
The mascara for blue eyes should be limited to the basic black. If you feel the need to be a little bolder and experiment, then go in for dark blue mascara. For blue eyes, make up is primarily dependent on the eye shadow and eyeliner. These two together create the maximum effect. The mascara complements blue eyes better when you are opting for a nude look with some shimmer or glitter on the eyes.

Eyeliner for brown eyes:

Colours: When it comes to eye makeup for blue eyes there is one very simple and easy to remember rule – the darker the shade of the eyeliner, the more brilliant your eyes are going to look. For this reason, go in for eyeliners in shades of dark blue, shades of brown and black, and dark green. Lavenders, pale purples and pinks also work really well with blue eyes

.

Suggestions: If you are too scared to try any color whatsoever, use some shimmer or a liquid white sparkle eye pencil. It may be more of a stark effect but the sparkle they lend to your eyes will be interesting.

Towards the end, I’d like to say that these are simply general guidelines and suggestions . The best kind of eye makeup for blue eyes has come out of people who wished to experiment with different colors and shades. While there are some rules to applying makeup, they shouldn’t stop you from playing with colors occasionally. If you try a certain color or look and you feel that you are able to carry it off well and it looks good on you, let nobody tell you anything different. At the end of the day, it’s about you feeling good about yourself. That’s what real beauty is about.
