Old Women Makeup Tips To Look Younger

Old Women Makeup Tips To Look Younger

By the time most women are in their 30’s they have experimented with different makeup looks and colors and have settled in with a familiar makeup routine. As women mature, their makeup needs change. Instead of piling on black eyeliner, false eyelashes or orange-red lipstick, mature women need to focus on a clean, natural application of foundation and powder and makeup colors to enhance their unique looks while avoid drawing attention to changes in skin and features.

The makeup for older women need not be more sophisticated and classy. It is because they have to be specific about the colors and texture of makeup they use. The make up they wear also reflect about the society they belong to, so at this age more than looking beautiful, makeup becomes a way to flaunt the class and hide the aging signs. The basic challenge in applying make up over an old lady is to cover her aging marks and give her a graceful look.

Difference Between the Makeup of Older and Younger Women:

   1. The makeup of older women needs to be more graceful than that of young women.
   2. The use of colors should be done in a more classy way. There should be use of more pastel shades. Excess glittery and skin showy clothes should be avoided.
   3. The combination of accessories with the dress should be very sophisticated and stylish.
   4. Makeup should focus on hiding the aging marks like wrinkles, blemishes and scars if any.
   5. As there is a little less scope to go out of way in hairdo and hair color, the experiments should be done in a subtle way with hair cuts.
   6. It is always preferable to go for regular cuts and suitable trends other than blindly following the fashion.
   7. Remember it’s not about looking younger; it is about looking beautiful at your own age.

Make up Tips for Older Women:

Hairstyle and Color: if you like long hair, keep them shoulder length or till the neckline. A chin length bob cut, or any other style looks great and makes you look smart. Silver is good and elegant but if you still insist on coloring the gray use lighter shades of brown to give your face a more elegant look.

Makeup Base: Before applying foundation, apply a light diffusing primer with a damp wedge sponge. Since mature skin tends to be drier, choose a mousse or cream foundation, which will hydrate skin and avoid settling in fine lines. Choose a foundation with yellow undertones, which offers the most natural coverage. Pink-based foundations tend to look artificial.

Choose a concealer with yellow undertones and light diffusing particles for under the eyes. Use a separate, slightly thicker concealer with a yellow undertone to conceal any age or sunspots and neutralize any red, splotchy areas.

Finish with a light dusting of moisturizing pressed powder compact with a powder puff. If you have combination skin, use a loose powder with a large facial brush.

Eyebrows: As by this age, your eyebrows may start getting sparser and the color of your eyebrows may begin to fade, give them additional definition with a powder, pencil or gel that is similar to your natural hair color.

Eyes: If you like using an eye shadow go for light, neutral and a hint of shimmer. Use single color instead of a two or three color combination. Apply it evenly over your eye id and let it fade into your brow line. It gives your eyes a very natural look. Use an eyelash curler and mascara.

Eyeliners can be avoided but on special occasions you can use a thin line of eyeliner preferable brown or dark brown instead of the black. The brown will blend with the glow on your face and make you look very classy. You can add a touch of shimmer. But don’t ever do the shimmer as it has the tendency to later highlight your lines. Prefer using an eye pencil instead of the liquid one which has a tendency to accentuate the lines around your eyes. Let go off the line below your eyes.

Just a single line on your eyelids will be fine. You can use kohl to make them look wider. But just a thin line again. Eyebrows tend to fade and sparse. Use brown pencil to cover up and an eyebrow brush to blend in all the lines. Don’t go for the black ones at all. They look really artificial actually draw attention to your age.

Lips: Lips can lose some shape and color as the years go by, so let’s bring them back.  If you have a problem with feathering and bleeding color, a great product is lip liner, which will help keep lipstick where it belongs.
A flesh-colored lip pencil is your new best friend.

Shape and fill in lips with pencil to give your lipstick something to adhere to.  Gloss can make a mouth appear fuller and poutier, but lipstick holds it’s color better, so double team with a sheer gloss layered over your lipstick color.

Advice:

    * No matter what make up you decide to wear, keep it subtle.
    * With your skin now ripening and maturing, less is better.
    * Always go for the barely there look and then accentuate only one feature on your face. You will look graceful.
    * Try the soft, glow and shine look instead of a matte look. People will fall in love with you all over again.
    * Always do your makeup in a well- lit room. That gives you a good look on your face.
    * Go for a style that is natural to you.

PeeWee Pivot 2.0 - The New Netbook For Children

PeeWee Pivot 2.0 - The New Netbook For Children


Even the computer for the little ones have to keep pace with the times, and that's why PeeWee has unveiled its new Pivot 2.0, successor to the Pivot Laptop Tablet, a convertible netbook specifically dedicated to children.

The new Pivot 2.0 is equipped with a waterproof keyboard and a touchscreen convertible netbook that actually turns into a tablet PC, just as they did for his predecessor.

The most obvious difference compared to the Pivot Laptop Tablet is the screen size, 10.1 inches of 09.08 against the previous year; the base resolution is 1024 × 600, but is optional higher resolution, equal to 1366 × 768, Intel Atom 1.66GHz and 1 GB of RAM remain unchanged, while the hard disk expands to 160 GB.

Like its predecessor, the new Pivot 2.0 comes with Windows XP Home and comes with 15 educational software for children, along with the ability for parents to monitor the activities of information of children. The base price remains the same as last year, $ 599 (about 440 euro exchange rate).

Thailand - Beautiful Pictures

Thailand is the most popular tourist destination in Southeast Asia, and for a reason. You can find almost anything here: thick jungle as green as can be, crystal blue beaches that feel more like a warm bath than a swim in the ocean and food that can curl your nose hairs while tap dancing across your taste buds. Exotic, yet safe; cheap, yet equipped with every modern amenity you need, there is something for every interest and every price bracket, from beach front backpacker bungalows to some of the best luxury hotels in the world. And despite the heavy flow of tourism, Thailand retains its quintessential Thainess, with a culture and history all its own and a carefree people famed for their smiles and their fun-seeking sanuk lifestyle. Many travelers come to Thailand and extend their stay well beyond their original plans and others never find a reason to leave. Whatever your cup of tea is, they know how to make it in Thailand.
This is not to say that Thailand doesn't have its downsides, including the considerable growing pains of an economy where an agricultural laborer is lucky to earn 100 baht per day while the nouveau riche cruise past in their BMWs, Bangkok, the capital, is notorious for its traffic jams and rampant development has wrecked much of once-beautiful Pattaya and Phuket. In heavily touristed areas, some lowlifes have made scamming tourists into an art form.

Completely Unique And Outstanding Ideas For Your Wedding

Completely Unique And Outstanding Ideas For Your Wedding

These days people are getting married much later in life and this means that they have their own money to spend on the big day, instead of relying on their parents to pay for everything. Every bride wants her wedding to be the most special wedding ever! When our daughter was taking the steps for planning a wedding, we searched and searched for unusual ideas and we found some good ones!

Alternative Decor Ideas

So you’re not a froofy floral arrangement girl – that doesn’t mean you can’t still have wedding decorations that wow. Think outside the proverbial wedding flower box with this list of blossom free wedding decoration ideas

The Food Pyramid

Fill cylindrical glass vases with fruits and vegetables reflecting your colors. Lemons and limes have been done, so try a unique, more contemporary look with texture-rich earthy vegetables like cauliflower, asparagus, cabbage or artichokes. If citrus suits your color scheme and you’re using flowers, slice the lemons or limes and place them in the jar surrounding the stems.

Love Visually

Build a structure consisting of a bunch of different ornate frames with photos of not only you and your fiance, but also parents and grandparents whose marriages serve as inspiration for time-tested love.

Au Natural

Consult Mother Nature for inspiration, and bring the outdoors in.  Natural objects like stones, leaves, pine cones, even twigs can add an organic aesthetic to your reception decor.  Place in rustic containers or scatter amongst pillar candles for added ambiance.  This idea will nicely complement a fall wedding theme.

A Library Look

Stacks of books intricately piled can work in a number of different ways. For sophisticates, choose antique leather-bounds and vintage classics. For a more fun approach, use books with bright spines and kitschy titles. Or, tie it to your wedding location if beach-side.

Wine-O

Wine bottles and decanters create interesting focal pieces.  Turn a wine bottle into a “lamp” by filling it with candle oil and adding a wick.  Or use a grouping of bottles with a tall single bloom in each.

Lighten Up

Floating candles in a shallow bowl adds light and elegance to your tabletops.  Or arrange multi-level candles on a mosaic of mirrors or tiles, and surround them with seashells or flower petals.  Placing coffee beans or red hot candies at the bottom of a vase or bowl to hold the candles steady also adds an aromatic effect.

Consult your Inner Child

For the kid at heart, fill decorative bowls with your favorite candies – such as jellybeans and M&M’s – in your wedding colors. These centerpieces are sure to be a hit with your guests!

Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept

According to Peter Lyon, Motor Trend's correspondent abroad, Honda is still hard at work on a successor to the much-loved NSX sports car. If true, we can expect the halo car to be powered again by a six-cylinder engine, this time augmented by a hybrid powertrain.

Up to this point, we're willing to put on our tinfoil NSX fanboy hats to suspend our fleeting grip on reality in hopes of a return to Honda-spec supercardom. However, not even Mulder himself could sell us on what Lyon is suggesting. According to MT's man in Japan, Honda is planning to use a flip-flopped Accord platform as the basis for its super coupe. You read that right.

While we'd love to see a 400-horsepower, all-wheel-drive NSX hit the market in 2014, we're not holding our collective breath... especially for one based on a backwards Accord chassis.

Top 10 Effective Methods To Take Control Of Your Weight

Top 10 Effective Methods To Take Control Of Your Weight

Science says our fat cells (particularly those of women) are subject to life changes, and the process of trying to keep trim usually starts in college, when we tend to spend more time boozing and less time snoozing. In fact, the average freshman-year weight gain is 8 pounds, a study from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, finds. What’s more, as young women age, they exercise 15 percent less and their weight increases by 21 percent over 20 years, research from Kaiser Permanente in Oakland, California, reveals.

Anyone who is overweight will testify that losing weight is not as easy as it seems. The people that are lean, or have gone from fat to skinny will say it’s just a matter of motivation and elbow grease. Although it is not as simple as that. Our environments have waged war on us. Their weapons are sedentary lives and trans fats of mass destruction. All is not lost though, here are some quick simple tips to get ahead!

1. Eat Breakfast

Do not skip breakfast. If you need to go to bed a little earlier so that you can get up 20 minutes earlier each morning – do it! Breakfast is so important to your good health and to weight control. According to Dr. Barbara Rolls a professor of nutrition at Penn State University, “Your metabolism slows while you sleep, and it doesn’t rev back up until you eat again.”

Eating breakfast is not only good for overall weight loss, it will help you stay on track with your diet the rest of the day. You are more likely to binge on something sweet and in the “bread” group if you skip breakfast.

You can always keep a couple of hard-boiled eggs in the fridge or some high-fiber, low starch fruit around. If you plan to eat fruit at all during the day, breakfast is the perfect time to do it.

2. Eat Some Protein At Each Meal & As A Snack

In addition to everything that’s been discussed before, eating protein helps you burn more calories. Jeff Hample, Ph.D., R.D., a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association says that, “Protein is made up mainly of amino acids, which are harder for your body to breakdown, so you burn more calories getting rid of them.”

Just think – eating a protein rich snack can help you lose weight. How about a few slices of turkey or ham or some string cheese?

Eating protein will also help you feel full so that you are less likely to crave unhealthy snacks.

3. Substitute Water

Our bodies are about 65-70% water. It follows that water would be not only essential, but the best possibly choice of liquids to ingest. In fact, our bodies will sometimes simulate a hunger response, when in reality the body is craving hydration. When hungry, drink a glass or two of water to check if it suppresses your hunger.

4. Chew Your Food

Chewing our food very slowly and deliberately has several benefits that are often overlooked. It gives us the ability to relax, and enjoy our meal. Slow chewing is the first, and highly important, step in a complex system of digestion. Besides, if we eat slowly, we might feel full before finishing the whole meal, and can leave the rest for the next meal.

5. Exercise Daily

How silly of me to include something as obvious as exercise. I did a 30 day trial with waking up, and walking for 30 minutes first thing in the morning. my journal records that I was feeling amazing during the period of time that I was following this habit.

6. Publicize Your Intentions

Start a blog, join a forum, and have other people keep you accountable to help. Tell other people your plan, it would help you get the motivation to go with it!

7. Create A Food Schedule

Plan your day so that you’re eating at approximately the same time each day. This scheduling will incorporate itself into your circadian rhythm, and aid in digestion.

8. Do Not Over Eat

Know your limit and stop eating when you are full. I have often been a victim of wanting to finish a meal so that it doesn’t go to waste. This has left me with many a stomach ache. Next time, doggy bag it for later, and don’t hurt yourself!

9. Choose Your Snacks Wisely

Put down the Lays and cheese puffs. Pick up the apple and baby carrots. Make the right decision, we know you can do it.

10. Lifestyle

Remember, it’s not about special diets, or special exercise programs. The real secret is in turning your health into a lifestyle, and focusing on this healthy lifestyle with every choice you make.
