Ridiculously Easy Hairstyle

May be most of you know about this hairstyle but if you don't know then this easy hairstyle is for YOU!
I recently searching something and found Maria Menounos wearing this simple and cute hairstyle. 


So here is the simple steps -


  • Bangs were just pulled to one side, but there's a trick here.


  • That lock was twisted down just once before it was pinned with the pin going from the back of her head toward her face.



Such a simple move, but it allows for just a tiny bit of height in the front that's really flattering. So easy!

Avoid my big forehead. :P


Would wear your hair like this?

Green Eye Makeup, EOTD

Celebs does know how to rock out the sparkling makeup trends.
This green eye look is inspired by Keri Hilson eye makeup. But I did it a bit differently.


You'll need -

  • Primer
  • Foundation.
  • Concealer.
  • Copper eye shadow.
  • Golden eye shadow.
  • Green eyeliner or green eye shadow. (I used green eye shadow)
  • Black eye shadow.
  • Makeup brushes.
Let's begin -
1. After preparing your eyes with primer and concealer, apply gold eye shadow on center of eye lid.
2. Then use copper eye shadow on whole eyelid. Blend gold and copper eye shadow. 
I didn't use any eye shadow for crease and brow bone.



3. Now apply green eyeliner (you can also use green gel eyeliner) But in case if you don't have any of these then use the green eye shadow and apply it with the help of liner brush as I did. :)


4. Now the twisted part, use black eye liner or eye shadow for the outer winged style. Blend the green and black eye liner to get the look.
The liner should be thicker on outer corner of your eyes. 



5. Then apply black eyeliner or eye shadow on outer side of lower lash line.


 6. Then apply loads of black mascara. I wanted to use fake lashes but I forgot. :P
And yes I also forgot to apply blush. :P


 For lips - For sophisticated and neat style use a nude gloss.


Hope you like it. :)

How To : Smooth Eyeliner Pencil

A very neat little trick for your daily life which involves your eyeliner pencil.

Image Source : Google
Take your eyeliner and run it over a lighter for a a second or two not more than that to soften it up a bit.
Let it cool for a second and then you’re good to go to use it. Make sure that the tip isn't too hot.
The process of warming it will allow your eyeliner to apply in a smoother fashion and you’ll be able to get that perfect defined eye look.
( If you left the pencil eyeliner in the flame too long then remove any excess using tissue paper,let it set for 5-10 seconds and apply).


You can also use blow dryer instead of lighter. :)  Just be careful.
It also works to slightly waterproof your eyeliner, especially on the inner rims, as well.

How To : Get Lashed Up

Beautiful, youthful, flirty and effortlessly sexy, who wouldn't want gorgeously long, thick Cheryl Cole-style eyelashes? 
But it's not surprising that luxurious lashes are so desirable: they add instant glamour, and widen small, tired eyes to make you look instantly younger.

There is a catch: applying false lashes can be a hit-and-miss affair. So here's a step-by-step guide.



APPLYING LASHES ^_^



1. Remove the lashes from the pack and hold them against your eye to measure them against the length of your own natural lash line. False lashes are often too long for your eye, so ensure you cut the strips to fit. If you leave them too long, they will drag your eyes down - which will have the opposite effect of the youthful look you are aiming for.


I used Konad fake eyelash :

2 Now you have two choices: 

  • Either apply the adhesive on to the full length of the base of the false lashes or, 
  • Using a brush, place dots of adhesive along your own natural lash-line before pressing the false lash on to it.
I used first method/choice :

 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the opposite eye. It is very important to wait 30 seconds for the adhesive to become tacky before applying the false lashes.



4. You can use Using tweezers, hold the strip lash in the centre. Then place it in the centre of your natural lashes. Then, again using the tweezers, push the inner side of strip lash in place, followed by the outer side.

  • If you don't feel comfortable with tweezers then use your fingers to apply lashes by following same technique used in step 4.
5. Using a 'pinching-and-push' technique with the tweezers to pinch together the strip lashes and your natural lashes, then 'push' them towards your eyelids. Do this all the way across the lashes and repeat for the other eye.

  • You can also use ear bud to push lashes.


Eyeliner can be added if needed, or mascara, but this needs careful application to the natural lashes only. 

You can also use fake eyelashes without eye make-up. Try it. :)

Tinsel Your Nail Tips

Normal french tips are definitely overused, so why not put a new funky twist to an old tradition for the new year?
For this new cool look, the steps are simple! All you need is a plum purple nail polish and silver nail polish!


Firstly, apply two coats of the dark purple polish, and then accompany it with a strip of silver along the tip.
In order to get a perfect tip, apply the polish in one quick and clean sweep across the nail instead of spending hours trying to edge it brush by brush.
