Make-Up Tricks

Make-Up Tricks
* For LARGER EYES try lining the inner upper and lower eyelids with a white eye pencil.


* Applying BLUSH on the "apples of the cheeks" makes the face look wider.

* Keep your liquid FOUNDATION in the refridgerator if it's not used on a daily basis.

* Green eyeshadows used on eyes will draw attention to any under eye DARK CIRCLES.

* Try a navy eyeliner on BROWN EYES.

The following can contribute to SKIN BREAKOUTS (blemishes): Frequent travel--ie flight attendants. Dipping fingers into cosmetics--bacteria alert! Using the other person's cosmetics. Neglecting to frequently wash your personal make-up sponges and brushes. Fried foods and chocolate. Hormonal changes--adolesence or pregnancy. Men shaving too often. Using "old" cosmetics. Using moisturizers that are too heavy for your skin type. A poor skin care regimen.
* Try a BACK FACIAL. (Especially if you are prone to blemishes/acne on your back).
* Try THE DRY SPONGE for the fight against cellulite and a SLIMMER LOOKING BODY.
* If your SKIN IS OILY, try using a blotting powder instead of a pressed powder.
* Warmed up olive oil is very nourishing for the NAIL CUTICLES.
* Avoid waterproof mascaras, whenever possible, as they are drying to the LASHES. Try a waterproof eyeliner to line the eyes and a brow gel on your lashes. How about lash tinting?
* Using a toothbrush gently brush your LIPS every night with a mild facial scrub. Not only does this method help with the dryness but it also stimulates the blood flow on the lips for a more natural healthy lip colour.



Wanna Be A Model?


Do you think you got what it takes?
Number one is you need to be 'smart'... yes, we are talking about being wise. Why? You need to know where you are going and how you are going to get there. Modeling is not only about the way you look, but how you present yourself to opportunity.
I have met many "wanna-be-models" that are not focused. They do not have a 'determined' mind for business and miss opportunities when they come their way. Some "wanna-be-models" often forget that there are a dozen other models out there just waiting for the moment to get publicized, highlighted and recognized and they will try to secure anything good towards making them successful. Be smart! Grab the opportunity when it comes!
The next thing is you have to be able to WORK! If necessary, you may need to work harder than others depending on your circumstances. This falls right in with desire! You have to 'want it so bad it hurts not to have it'. This really applies to anything in life - desire is the motivating factor in whatever we do. Why should you have so much desire? Well, when those hurdles come along (and they will come) you will have enough 'energy' to jump over them and continue on with your goal in mind.
Some things you should know about modeling: * There are different types - fashion, artistic, runway, nude, etc. * Models may not always be 'gorgeous' as it depends on the kind of 'look' the client is looking for. * Models can be any age - new born to elderly - again it depends on the needs of the client, for example as in a commercial.
For fashion modeling: * It's best to start young, teens or early twenties. * Your weight should be consistent with your height and shape. * Most female models tend to be around 105-120 pounds and the usual height is nothing less than 5'8" or more. * Males are heavier in weight all depending on their build and muscle mass. Their height is usually 6' and more. * Some women and men with exceptional beauty may be considered if they are under the height listed and over the weight if they are muscular. Measurements are not the end all but the total 'package' and the 'look'.
How do I become recognized? Having your own web site/or portfolio is a great place to start, especially if you are an independent model. Why? Imagine speaking to a fashion designer or commercial recruiter on the phone and telling them how much experience you have and how great you look... does not really do much, because they want to 'see' what you got. How about telling the same prospective employer to go to your web site/ or view your portfolio? They can see your pics in an instant, look at what they want, get all the info and contact you! $$$$$ Models can earn from $100.00 to $300.00 per hour depending on the demand for you. Some models have been known to charge as much as $2,500 for a 10 hour day. Of course when you are starting out you might be modeling for a photographer for free to get experience. Models often do this as a way to get their pictures taken, this is called, 'TFP' or time for pictures/print.
