about obesity is lose weight! Some by genetic predisposition
will never be a Halle Berry no matter how much they work out.
Here’s the good news, and one steadily being promoted by
health professionals, you can be healthy at all sizes! An active
metabolism is more beneficial that starving to ‘skinnyhood’.
Meaning eat right! Keep fit! Get active! Exercise! Not ‘cause
you have an image of what sexy is, but because it keeps you
skin, hair and overall being healthy. Bonus, you will lose weight
without you even knowing! You can look forward to aging
gracefully and not be plagued by chronic ailments such as
TypeII diabetes, hypertension, strokes, cardiovascular diseases
and the likes.
A healthy lifestyle should never be as a result of a definition of
what beauty is, because truly we’re all beautiful, rather because
we want to look good and feel good inside out and enjoy these
bodies as long as we have it! So my people! Rock your style!
Make your statement! YOU make the outfit and makeup all
come together, ‘cause YOU genuinely look good, feel good
and YOU are fashionably healthy!
Ciao amigos! (winks)

Mistake #6: Too much Lip Liner
A lip liner can define your lips and prevent colour from
feathering into any lines around the mouth--but choose one
very carefully.
If you line your lips too heavily, or with a color that's too
dark, they'll look tight and pursed.For the most natural
effect, your lip liner should match the color of your lips, not
the colour of your lipstick. Choose a creamy formula that
won't adhere to any dry patches, and use it to fill in your lips
entirely, so it wears evenly.
Mistake #7: Using Liner and Mascara on Your Lower
Lashes
Playing up your lower lashes can make your eyes look
droopy and draw attention to dark circles. Instead, curl your
upper lashes and wiggle a volumizing mascara into their
roots and slowly through the ends for the most uplifting
effect.
Mistake #8: Skipping Blush
A rosy flush on your cheeks brings instant life to your face.
And, if applied correctly, blush can offer a little lift. Smile,
find the fleshiest part of your cheek and apply color just
slightly above it. Blend the color out toward your temples in
circles, not a line, using a big fluffy brush. You want to avoid
a stripe of color that stretches along your cheekbones, which
can make you look drawn and hollow
Mistake #9: Applying Lipstick Straight from the Tube
The borders of the lips soften with age, and any extra
lipstick migrates easily. To avoid bleeding colour, use your
finger or a lip brush so that you don't deposit too much
pigment. Concentrate the lipstick in the center of your
mouth, and blend it out with a finger. Top it with a
moisturizing balm or light gloss.
Mistake #10: Choosing a Too-Dark Eyebrow Pencil
Your brow colour fades as you age, so the brow pencil that
you were using at 25 will look too stark against your
complexion at 50," Choose the one that's a shade or two
lighter than your natural brow colour. If your brows are
starting to get a little wiry, run a clear brow gel over them as
well, brushing them up and out toward your temples.
