Looking after your skin

Jul19

You skin is something that can be affected by many factors such as the sun, wind, products we use, smoking and just as we age. It is important to look after your skin to avoid wrinkles and damaging the layers that make up your skin, some of which cannot be reversed. One way to look after your skin is to wear sun cream with a high factor in it. You may opt for a foundation or a moisturiser that already contains SPF 15 or above to ensure that you are protected every day. You should also ensure that you remove all make up every night...

One of the recent trends to hit the hair salons is Ombre hair. Ombre is the gradual blending of one color hue to another. This is a technique that many people are having done on their hair. Often people have a darker colour at the top which then blends down in to a blonde at the bottom, although this can be reversed.

Not all hairdressers will be able to get this look so it you are considering having it done it is vital that...

Foundations that last

May31

Buying a foundation is a nightmare for me, I not only struggle to find the right colour but also to find one that lasts. Many foundations claim to last up to 8 hours (up to being the important word) as often I find mine have almost gone within a few hours. With the average foundation costing around £10 it is not a cheap product to be able to experiment with. The most expensive foundations do seem to last longer and many places like Debenhams will have counters set up to allow you to sample them properly before you buy. When thinking about this, I came...

Face contouring and bronzing

Apr25

It is very easy to get confused between face contouring and bronzing and many people refer to them as the same thing. With contouring you are essentially accentuating the assets that you face has such as cheek bones and lips but with bronzing you are making certain appears appear more sun kissed. For example, with bronzing you would apply bronzer to the t-section of your face, making it look slightly tanned where the sun would normally catch you, but with contouring you would want to highlight these areas as this is where the light naturally hits your face. You would also contour the areas of...

Beat the frizz

With the weather becoming a little more humid, this is often the time many of us experience the dreaded hair frizz. You can have perfectly straighten hair and within a few hours of being out the house, feel like you have been in a wind tunnel and find your hair is not lying flat as you wanted it. If you have fine hair or hair that has a slight natural curl then this problem may affect you more than others. There are some great products on the market that help with frizz problems but often the only way to find the right one if to...
