How NOT To Look Old

Women are always asking me how to look younger and I am going to be really honest today and talk to you about how NOT to look old. These are things I continually see women do and it instantly makes them look older they they are! We need to face reality, we are in a image driven society. You may be looking for a job, going through a divorce, recovering from illness, or a stay at home mom. The fact is you want to look and FEEL your best.

So, How NOT To Look Old...

1. Skip the Dark Lip Liner or Lipstick- Never a good look to see a dark lip liner or lipstick very aging-instead go for light glossy pink. Try my new FAV color "Socialite" by WB Cosmetics

2. Over Plucked Eyebrows-Instantly makes you look older and over arching is scary -solution is fuller natural looking arch not too dark.

3. Get Bangs- Yes, hides those forehead wrinkles and even get soft hi-lights, it is a "soft focus" for your face.

4. Dark Makeup- Avoid matte face, heavy concealer/foundation,thick eyeliner-instead try lighter dewey finish foundation, less powder and curl lashes on top and top off with mascara (an instant eye opener!)

5. Buy a BODY Shaper- No more muffin tops! Can transform your outfit from lumpy to FABULOUS. Are available at Target to Nordstroms depending on budget.

6. Lift Your Boobs- There I said it, I see this daily saggy boobs covering way to much torso. Get a bra fitting and lift those girls! You WILL look thinner and clothes will fit better.

7. Throw Away Mom Jeans- Trade in for DARK denim with a slight flare at bottom, not too low.

8. Yellow Teeth-Gives away your age instantly, invest in good whitening treatment. I love Crest Whitestrips!

9. Thongs- No more granny panties!

10. Nails- Long nails are dated! Choose dark trendy color for toes and light sheer color for hands.


I promise if you implement some or all of these things you will look and feel younger PLUS get tons of great feedback.

Fall back in LOVE with you!

Hi friends!

By now your kids are back to school and you are back to homework, packing lunches, and running to sporting events. I have to admit I was excited to get back to a routine and doing more of what I love (helping woman with style and makeup). You're probably like me and forget about all those little things that give you joy. For me, it could be as simple as a good cup of coffee, laugh with a great friend, or new pair of trendy earrings. As we head into fall we need to fall back in LOVE with who we are. We are just who God created us to be, no more no less. What we choose to do with our creation is another story. How we present ourself to the world says volumes to what we think about on the inside. Good news! We can change our outward appearance and sometime even get a boost from inside out.

You matter! You are worth adorning and endowed with beauty by your creator. Let's get started on YOUR journey to be your very best.

Here are my favorite Fall Beauty Trends to try:
1. RED LIPS-classic and chic, for a softer look try gloss
2. DEFINED BROWS- still in and elongate ends for that "Supermodel Look"
3. ROSY CHEEKS- love this look, looks best on matte face and higher on cheekbones
4. DARK EYES- only for the trendy but try with blues, browns, and black shadow
5. MESSY BUNS- already wearing this trend, just tease first and put in loose ponytail

Have fun and take a risk! Be blessed and beautiful,
