Dealing With Those Horrid Period Problems >.< ♥

When it's "That time of the month" for a girl, you can face many problems! Here are some tips to help you you stay positive:
  • Cramps- Stress usually makes cramps worse. Taking ibuprofen before you expect the cramps might be helpful, as well as exercise, deep breathing and just relaxing.
  • Bloating- The bloating feeling is common. It happens to 1 out of 2 women according to doctors. Ways to help reduce the bloating feeling is to watch your diet and stay away from salt. You should keep physically active and drink lots of water.
  • Sore Breasts- Right before you get your period your body is producing a lot of hormones. There is not much you can do to avoide this, but it helps if you don't have caffine, stay physically active, and drink lots of water.
  • Back Pain- Back pain is another common problem. Taking ibuprofen can help take away some of the pain. Also, laying on a heating pad or taking a hot bath can help.
  • Mood Swings- During your period, you may feel like an emotional mess. For example, things that would normally not upset you have you crying for no reason. This is mostly due to hormones. The bad news is that there really is nothing to be done, except let it out. Cry if you need to. Scream, shout, stomp your feet. Then apologize to those who got in the way.
  • Acne- Getting those little zits before your period is deffinatley annoying. The only thing you can do is wash your face regularly and hope that they don't show up.
  • Changes in Appetite- Some women crave chocolate, while others can hardly eat anything at all. Again, it's those FREAKING hormones and it's natural to experience changes in your appetite. Just know that those weird eating habits will go back to normal.

  6. 6. Apply a base coat, and let dry.

  8. Apply a second coat for a deeper color.

The Perfect Eyebrows ♥


The biggest mistake girls make is to tweeze too much. If you pluck too much, it can take months for the hair to grow back. The space between your brows should be equal to your eyes. To find where your brow should start take a pencil and hold it parallel to the side of your nose. Where the brush meets your brow is where your brow should begin. Your eyebrows should have a perfect arch in it.




Here are some Tipsss:

  • Clean your face before plucking. It will make it easier to pluck the hairs if there is no dirt and oils.


  • If your face is moisturized it will hurt less.


  • Stand back from the mirror every few hairs to see your progress.

Just the Right Touch of Color ♥

Just like an artist, foundation is key. If you do not have a perfect canvas to work on then the make up means nothing. The most important thing to remember when applying make-up is not to change the way you look, but to bring out your natural beauty. There are three basics to make-up; Day, evening, and formal. No matter which of the three though, too much is never a good thing.

Day- It is a very casual fresh look. You want to look as though you are barely wearing any make-up at all.

Evening- In evening make-up you want to essentuate either your eyes or lips, still keeping the check bone area fairly natural.

Formal- With formal wear, you are making a statement with your make-up. Wheter it be complementing your eyes to your wardrobe or just as important you can do the same with your lips.

Every women would agreee with me when I say that having that perfect pair of jeans is the most essential part of a womens wardrobe. Why? Not only does it make one feel good about their own personal body shape, but also when each women with her own unique shape finds that one pair of jeans that complents her individual figure, this makes her feel beautiful and sexy.

Finding the right hairstyle for your face ♥

Oval - Length equals around one and a half times width. As oval is considered to be the ideal face shape it is therefore the most versatile, so nearly every hair style will look good on this face.
Round - Round hairline and chin line, wide face and round cheeks. If you have a round face shape, the goal here is to slim the face. Hair below the chin line should be worn with a face-lengthening center parting.
Square - straight hairline, angular jaw with wide faceYour hairstyle should try to soften the sharp angle of your jaw line and minimize a squared-off forehead look.
Triangular or Pear - wide chin and narrow forehead. When choosing a style for this face shape, you should seek on a look that narrows the chin and widens the forehead to balance proportions.
Heart - narrow jaw line, wider at eyes. If this is your face shape, you'll want a hairstyle that extenuates the jaw line and narrows at the eyes. Heart shape faces need a softer, curly style.
Oblong - Long and slender, about the same width at forehead and just below cheekbones. For this face shape you should add width and fullness to the sides of the face and around the eyes, cheekbones and ears.
