has lost its shine!

Last December my partner and I were away for about a month. Upon arriving, we just found out that our wood flooring has lost its shine. We already spent our money the previous month. We have nothing to our bank account. So, we can’t ask the housekeeper to make it shine. I was forced to just leave it as it is. It was just last Wednesday that I can’t take it anymore and decided to make it shine. Good thing, my partner went to the church for his Wednesday mass, or I won’t be able to do it. He doesn’t like to see me doing some chores around the house. I don’t know what’s with him. Now the floor is back to its shine.

Easy Make-up Tips

For everyday look blends demure nuances of nude beige and pink on your skin, eyelids and lips. Start by applying your usual tinted foundation in a nuance that’s as close to the natural color of your skin as possible. Instead of your usual matte powder, apply the radiant finishing powders that will leave your skin looking vibrant and fresh for the rest of the day. Don’t forget to add a tiny bit of blush. For your eyelids, use a nude beige nuance all over your upper lid and all the way up to the brow bone, and then blend in a soft pink eyeshadow on the upper lid and the crease of your eyes. Add two coats of black mascara. Finally, use a pink shade of lipstick and as a glamorous finishing touch, apply a coat lip plumper in nude pink for a plumped pout.

When it comes for the evening glamor look, the main focus of your make-up session should be your eyes. Keep in mind that the dramatic eye make-up must be balanced by more natural shades on the cheeks and lips. Apply foundation and use a loose mineral face powder to set the foundation, and then go for a natural radiant shade of blush that’s as close as possible to the shade of the lipstick you intend to wear. As for the eyes, start by applying metallic gray eyeshadow over the entire upper eyelid, and then blend in a dark blue shade into the crease area for extra depth. Finally, use a wet fine tip brush to line the eyes with the same shade of dark blue eyeshadow you used on the crease and apply mascara. All you need now is an equally glamorous outfit and you’re good to go.

planning to spend summer with your family?

If you are planning to spend summer with your family, like me, then you must start planning right now. I have seen a really great place that I found on the web. It is on the secluded white-sand beaches on the Mexican Riviera Maya. And Karisma Hotels can cater to a Gourmet-Inclusive and luxury all-inclusive needs. You can enjoy elite level of service and exquisitely presented food prepared by expert chefs. I really love food and this will be perfect. Also, there are other activities that you and your family can enjoy. If granted, this will be one of the most wonderful Family Vacations, I will ever have. But that would be in the near future.
