Everyone wants to be fashionable. That is why you read this blog, isn’t it. You want to know what the current and future trends of fashion are in the world. This is good and respectable. Everyone has the right to look good and feel good about themselves and that is what fashion really is all about, feeling good about one’s self. There is a dirty little secret in the fashion world though. This secret is that if the fashion is used too heavily or without care, it can actually be dangerous.

The large eyes of Lady Gaga in her “Bad Romance” music video have rekindled a disturbing trend in the fashion world. This trend tend is ordering of non-prescription contents that force the eyes to open slightly larger and creates the appearance of a larger iris. These contacts are not properly fitted to a person and not recommended by any medical professional. There are simply too many risks for the eyes including scratching, infection and even blindness. This is a fashion trend to avoid completely. If you want wider and larger eyes like Lady Gaga, consider using eye shadow that brightens and enlarges the eyes visually without actually affecting the eyes.

High heels are the boon and bane of many women. The shape and beauty that the shoes offer are so desirable. These shoes can make a person appear taller and sleeker. They are expressive and fun, lifting the butt and shaping the legs. However, the use of the high heeled shoes over long periods of time can have a serious side effect. Too frequent of a use of these shoes can cause ankle and back pain, resulting in discomfort. They can also irritate the tendons in the legs and feet, causing extreme discomfort and pain. Consider wearing the heels at the event, but wear flats to the event.

Excessively dying one’s hair is fun. It is a lot of fun shifting the color of the hair to match a mood or an outfit. However, this can cause the hair to become brittle and even fall out. If you are infrequently dying your hair, consider using a soft hair dye with a conditioner. If you are constantly dying your hair, consider buying a wig. Not only will the wig allow you to safely and easily change your hair color, but it will also allow you to change your hair style without damaging your hair. Simply tie your real hair up and slip the wig over it. Some of these wigs can even be hard to tell from real hair.

Make-up is something that most women cannot do without. Even a trip to the gym in a pair of sweats and a tee-shirt requires some make-up. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it can give confidence and help a person to hide skin blemishes. However, not removing the make-up at the end of the day is also a bad habit of many women. This can cause some problems for the skin, including infections and clogged pores. The infections occur when the make-up is pushed into a small cut as you sleep and clogged pores occur the same way but with a pore in the skin. Wearing make-up is fine, but be sure to wash the make-up off before going to sleep. Too tired to completely wash your face, well, use a make-up removal pad or sheet to quickly and easily remove the make-up before bed.

Dressing well and looking beautiful is something that most people cannot imagine not doing. This is a good thing. Dressing well and looking beautiful makes for more confident people and confidence is true beauty. Using these tips and being aware of the dangers of not properly using the fashion can help to increase this confidence and increase a person’s well-being.

Applying Make-Up Well

by

The application of make-up is an art. There are many who say that it is a science, but that’s not true. Any time a person has to paint and do something artistic, it is art, not science. There is some semblance of science to the application of make-up but in truth, it is an art. Make-up is an art that anyone can master with just a few simple rules.

1. Always take your time applying your make-up. There is no sense in rushing to apply your make up. If you rush, you are more likely to apply the make-up unevenly and your lines will not be strait. It takes more time to fix a make-up blunder than it does to do it right the first time.
2. Choose colors that complement you, not your outfit. If you are wearing a green dress, do not wear the same shade of green eye shadow. To do so will only make you look like a clown. Instead wear eye shadow that complements your eyes. After all, that is the point of make-up, to make you look good, not to match your outfit to your face.
3. Go easy on the colors. Please realize that the face does not look right with bright pink blush and brilliant blue eye shadow. Just because the models do it when they are doing fantasy shoots and it looks good, does not mean it will look good for every day wear. Choose colors that look natural and that complement your skin and eye color in order to get the best effects.
4. Heavy make-up is acceptable for evening wear, but looks silly if it is worn all day long. Heavy make-up during the evening looks good only because the lighting is softer, making the make-up appear softer. If you wear evening make-up all day, you may appear too formal or too sever.
5. Do not use permanent make-up. It was a short lived fad, but it is still out there for people who are interested. This is make-up that is actually tattooed to you. The idea is that the make-up is then always on perfectly, even in the dead of night. The downside to this, besides it hurting really bad, is that it is then impossible to change the make-up. Please, just take the time to learn how to use make-up.
