The Perfect summer look

Drawing the White line... Xx

2011-11-24T11:02:00.000+11:00

When used on the upper lid, the white attracts light and opens up the shape of your eye, whereas a black liner can make your eyes look smaller.

The best way to use White eyeliner is to line the inner corner of the eye or your lower lash line with an eye pencil in shimmery white, cream, or silver and blend in the line.

The Friday HOT tip... Gloss xx

2011-06-03T13:00:00.001+10:00

Lash out with Lashes

Lash application

There are so many different types of false eyelashes on the market its no wonder us girls can get confused. A set of lashes can make all the difference. Lashes generally do come with glue but for staying power I recommend to buy separate adhesive glue for your lashes.

Strip lashes are like shoes- you need them to fit properly. Some will be too short or too big for you. The trick is to cut them down to fit the length of your own lash line.

Individual lashes are great- apply them mostly to the outer corners as this gives a seductive, eye opening effect.

You can apply mascara before or after, whichever works for you. I usually prefer applying after… but make sure the glue is dried.

Remember… Practice makes perfect!

Princesses to be... Gloss XX

Prince charming?

Find your prince charming with these simple tips…

While Kate Middleton is getting ready for the royal wedding… Gloss shows you how to bring out the princess in you.

1. Be confident and Happy. Don’t let anyone tell you your not beautiful because a princess is always beautiful.

2. Play some of your favorite music Whilst getting ready

3. Highlight your natural beauty.

Nails should be kept manicured and painted with something light such as pink, nude, clear or French polish.

Hair should be shiny and smooth with a soft wave. Maybe even treat yourself to a trip to the hairdressers to get a blow dry or classic up style. Keep it soft, classic and natural.

Makeup- Use a minimal foundation that is luminous. Use soft blush to subtly highlight your check bones. Try to stick to neutral colours for your eyes. Gloss suggests: A Bone coloured eye shadow and a stick of liquid eyeliner, only on the top lashes and finish with mascara.

Finish off your look with a Lip shade that compliments your skin tone, however, nothing too bright or dark.

Jewelry should be kept simple and elegant. Wear only a few pieces at a time. Wear pearls to make the look timeless.

4. Get dressed up in something that makes you feel like a princess. Choose some cute heels to match. Make sure it is elegant and Classy.

5. Smile!

Note: Add tiara if desired :)

Every girl has a prince charming... Some just haven't found him yet!
