How to Find Your Right Makeup

To is invalid Parameter name: to

There are at least 3 crucial factors we must consider to choose the correct makeup. Ignoring any one of these factors, we can end up looking like a fool.

1. What looks good with your complexion
It might seem like a simple concept. But we see it ignored time and time again. Women wear eyeshadow,blush, etc. based on what their favorite color is, what the latest trend is, what's on sale, what somebody gave them because they didn't use it. None of these things are bad ideas in themselves. But if we take one of these and run with them, it just won't work out if the colors are not compatible with our complexion.

2. Price
When someone first told me to consider that as a factor, I thought it was because she wanted to sell me makeup. But soon, I realized her point. I'm not saying go out and buy the most expensive makeup out there. But if I can buy blush for the same price as a cup of coffee, I shouldn't be surprised if it hardens or cakes up within a week. Not to mention, what kind of low-grade materials must be thrown together for the finished product to be so cheap? Bottom line: you get what you pay for.

3. Your wardrobe
There are some women that have all the colors of the spectrum in their closet. But most of us gravitate towards a certain color scheme when we shop for clothes. We should keep this in mind when shopping for makeup. After all, makeup and clothes must be coordinated.

How to Take Lace Front Wig Measurements

To ensure that your lace wig fits properly when you receive it, it is vital to have correct measurements.

When purchasing a lace remy wig, especially a custom one, one of the most important things is knowing how to take accurate measurements of your scalp. You need to have proper measurements to make sure it isn't too snug or even worse, too loose.

Follow the chart below for 6 easy steps to take measurements for your lace wig.

A. Preparing Your Hair: For your hair, we suggest styling it as you would want it while it is under the wig when it's being worn.You will want to either put it in a flat and tight ponytail wrapped backwards, put it into a braided flat beehive, or braid it straight back into flat cornrows along the scalp. You will need to do this in order to get results from your measurements. Before you take the measurements, get your hair as flat and tight as you possibly can. This way your head contours won't be distorted by bulging hair.

This will be a little different if your hair is less than three inches long or you don't have any hair. When your hair is either wet and flat on the scalp you can take your measurements. First apply a wig cap to further flatten your hair, or just take your measurements directly on your scalp. Press firmly on your scalp and only measure where your hairline is or any place you want the lace hair line to be made.

B. Size Standards and the Average Measurements: These measurements below are just for example's sake.? These measurements won't conform to everyone's head,and some of your measurements will either be under or over which is totally fine.

Small: 20" to 21.5" circumference, (13.5-14"), 12", 12.5", 14.5", 5"Medium: 22" to 22.5"circumference, 14", (12.5-13"), 13", 15.5", (5.5"-6")Large: 23" to 24.5"circumference, (15.5-16"), 13", 13.5", 16.5", (6.5-7")

C. How To Take Measurements Yourself: For steps one through six in the chart below, use a soft measuring tape like the kind used for clothing. Most wigs will use whole and half inch measurements, so it's usually best to round your number up instead of down. Example: 12 3/4 should be rounded up to 13 and 12 1/4 should be rounded up to 12 1/2.

It is very important that you make sure that your measurements are accurate.? Your wig might not fit if it's measured improperly. It's best to take your measurements about two or three times to make certain you are accurate.

I've been through my fair share of bad hair days. Trust me. After spending thousands of dollars and hours of time on my hair, I've discovered that these full lace remy wigs really do give you the look and style you want at a price you can afford. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions. I'd be happy to hear from you. In the meantime, check out this great lace wig video.

Important Tips For Colored Hair Treatments

To is invalid Parameter name: to

Your hair will need special attention and an ongoing care schedule if it has been colored. That means that it has been dyed needs more attention than hair that hasn't been colored. Hair that is dyed contains larger pores in them so that the color can be absorbed, but this process makes hair weaker and easily damaged. The hair treatment regime that is necessary for colored hair is: a good moisturizing program, help against breaking, and helping the dye stay in the hair and not wash out.

You should never roll up your hair in a towel and rub it dry because this will cause a lot of damage. Using a wider toothed comb is best for brushing wet or freshly treated hair. Blow drying your hair is something many people do but it can do a lot of damage if you dry your hair completely.

After every time that you wash it you should use a good conditioner to keep it healthy. Some hair spray contains sun screen and conditioners that can help protect your hair from the sun (many hair spray products contain these). And getting a special conditioning from your salon once a week will help it stay healthy and straight. A professional salon will be able to give you a hair glazing that will protect your hair, keep the color from fading, and help it retain moisture.

Fading hair is often a result of washing your hair too much or too often. Colored hair should be washed with special conditioner or shampoo. There are shampoos that are able to add more color so that your treatment lasts longer. Sun damage is a big player when it comes to ruined follicles but there are conditioners that you can use that will help protect your hair.

Healthy and colorful hair is the result of treating and caring for it properly over the weeks and months that you have it.

Improving Your Looks With a 10x Magnification Mirror

The underlying connection was closed: A connection that was expected to be kept alive was closed by the server.

We live in a world where every day it seems that looks count for more and more and so both men and women are doing their best to improve their looks.

Well doing with a person's appearance there are two main things to look at, how their physical body is and how they dress that body. I'll be focusing on the body which itself has lots of different categories relating to appearance based on that person. For example a man's hair, waistline and bicep measurements would all be classed as important with regards to being good looking. One aspect of this would be the appearance of your facial skin and it's something that applies to both men and women.

It's only been in recent years that men have taken such a keen interest on their appearance, but women have been trying to perfect the art of having smooth and flawless facial skin for years. One of the best ways to achieve skin free of things such as acne is to have a system of identification and treatment.

Identification involves spotting where the blackheads/whiteheads/acne is on your face, this may seem obvious to those who perhaps don't have them - but finding those kinds of small skin problems is a difficult task. This is why I recommend using a 10x magnification mirror because it effectively zooms in on the part of your face that you're looking at. Clearly for large pimples it's no necessary, but for small stealthy spots you'll need assistance in spotting.

Treatment is very simple, firstly don't go to your local supermarket to buy a treatment - they don't work. Go straight to your doctor and get him to prescribe something which actually works, instead of some generic television advertised acne cream/blackhead remover.

Is Laser Hair Removal the Best Way to Get Rid of Unwanted Hairs?

To is invalid Parameter name: to

Unwanted hair can have an impact on your confidence, self-esteem and comfort, which is why so much time is spent developing new and improved techniques for getting rid of it. However, there still seems to be an element of doubt in people's minds about which approach is best.

Shaving is obviously quick and painless, but doesn't do as thorough job as waxing. However, waxing can be very painful and expensive over time. Then there's electrolysis, which while effective can be damaging to the skin.

So what about laser hair removal? Is it the best available option? Here are 10 reasons why it could be worth a try...

1. It's extremely effective and can produce fantastic results immediately for the majority of users.

2. Once you've had a few sessions, this method has demonstrated its effectiveness in delivering permanent removal of hairs.

3. The problem with electrolysis is that, while very effective, it can harm your skin. Laser, on the other hand, removes the hairs without damaging the skin.

4. Unlike waxing, which most people find to be painful, laser doesn't hurt at all.

5. Laser hair removal can be fit to the specific body part that you want hair removing from, so if you have unwanted hair on your arms, face, bikini zone or anywhere else on the body, laser can focus on just that.

6. If you have unwanted hair covering a large part of your body, like your back, legs or chest, it can take a long time to remove it using other methods. Laser, on the other hand, can tackle the area in just one session and produce smooth results.

7. While permanent results do happen, you can at least relax knowing that after using this method of removal, any hair that grows back will be softer and finer than if you used an alternative approach.

8. Are you too concerned about unwanted visible hair to wear that new dress you bought or that short-sleeved blouse? After using laser, you'll have the confidence to wear your favourite clothes all the time.

9. Ingrown hairs and bumps can be unsightly and uncomfortable, but unlike some other hair removal methods, laser will tackle and get rid of them.

10. It's not just the results that are worth shouting about, by using such an effective method that has the potential for permanent removal, you will save a lot of money in the long-run.

So, if you think laser hair removal is the best method for you, why not book an appointment at a salon near you?
