It’s time to go shopping…Let’s sparkle!

Complimenting the color of you eye is the most important tip to keep in mind when browsing for your perfect eye shadow shades. Green Shadows do not look good on green eyes unless it is the same color as your eyes. Think of blue green or a more yellow green which will keep you are the right track for perfect shades for you as it is impossible to have eyes in both categories. The same applies for those of you with blue eyes. Don’t go running out to purchase a deep aqua blue for your pale ice blue eyes.

Find out below how to prepare yourself to become a glowing beauty for this summer season….

1. Exfoliate or maybe not! It aggravates me when vendors hawk there expensive body exfoliators when it can be a completely unnecessary process before self tanning. No dry skin? No need to exfoliate. If you have rough, dry skin then purchase an inexpensive exfoliators as any will take care of your dry skin problem areas that need to be prepped for self tanning.

2. Shave you legs prior to applying your self tanner. Some say that shaving your legs can create sensitivity to self tanners. If you tend to have sensitive skin, then proceed with a bit of caution. Most women will not have a sensitivity problem with the self tanner application process right after you shave.

Not too pretty and OH so un-wanted.

It is necessary prior to reading this article that you know in fact you may have a skin condition called Rosacea. This skin condition can be very problematic and in many cases require the care of a Dermatologist to keep it in control and in check. You will notice that Rosacea will generally affect the nose, cheeks and forehead and in some extreme cases your eyes. Those of you that know you have Rosacea are aware that it is much more menacing than just a red, ruddy skin. On the brighter side, I have seen wonderful cammouflage techniques that can reduce the appearance of red in your skin even if it is Rosacea…It’s worth a try.

Dark Circles under the eyes are of concern to many women. You will want to use your foundation teamed with a light reflecting white concealer to camouflage the problem.

• Begin with a mixing a small amount of your white concealer with your foundation.
• Apply the foundation mixture using a cosmetic wedged sponge.
• Do not go more than a full shade lighter than your current foundation.

I am a contact lens wearer which in some cases like mine will add to eye redness. Several years ago when I was at the Ophthalmologist (Harvard Grad…Credibility?), I asked him what to do about my dry, red eyes that seem to get much worse when I wear my contacts. He told me to purchase Allergan Relief and use it no more than 4x a day. Allergan Relief does the job on two different levels. Relief will not only clear my red eyes but will also deliver moisture that is necessary for my eyes to feel comfortable.

Vitamins are necessary for general eye health. I am not going to recommend any specific eye vitamins (although plenty on the market and more appearing daily). I believe that plenty of foods that we eat are a fabulous source for the vitamins and minerals needed for good eye health which will in turn give you whiter appearing eyes. Did you mother ever tell you that carrots are good for your eyes? True story…Look for vitamins A, B2, C, E and minerals Selenium and Zinc.

Try lining your eyes with Deep Blue and/or use a midnight blue mascara and use violets and deeper blues for shadows. Make sure that you use deep hues of blues as baby blues and pale aqua’s will not accomplish the task.

At least several days a week I am surviving on too little sleep which is something I have always worn in my EYES…Not any more with this handy little tip.

Your will need to purchase a white pencil or shadow. The other rule you will need to remember is on those particular days when you eyes are looking dull, red, lifeless then by all means avoid pink, rose or purple shadows as they will on make the problem appear much worse. It is best to play a little more minimalist look with your eyes although make sure the BLACK mascara is fairly heavy…after that on the bottom of your eye on the inner area apply your white shadow from the beginning of your lashes to the outer corner. VOILA! Your eyes are completely brightened up and the white of your eye just got a whole lot whiter. Great little trick…So don’t worry so much next time when you want to go out and have a little FUN the night before a meeting. Live it UP!
