Pollution is bad for your skin. One of the reasons it's good to wear foundation is that it helps keep environmental pollutants from getting into your skin. Let's also do what we can to cut down on pollutants. Visit Stop Global Warming dot org and see what you can do to help reduce your carbon footprint. One thing I did this weekend is to seal up cracks around doors and windows where cold air was coming in, to help keep my heating bills down. I also installed 5 compact fluorescent lightbulbs in place of the regular ones I had been using. They're a bit more expensive and they resemble a corkscrew, but they last a very long time and are very energy efficient! Apparently if every American family switched out 5 bulbs as I have done, it will be the equivalent of removing 8 million cars from our roadways. Let's get to it and cut down on pollution! Your skin will thank you.

2007-02-01 10:29:01
Hair RemovalIt's a plucky subject for most people. Whether you shave, wax, sugar, pluck, or go through electrolysis it's still a pain. I myself have used all the above methods except the latter. I even tried the buffing technique, where it's almost like sanding your body hair off with sandpaper! I gave it a try because my husband had bought it to remove some of his body hair. It was definitely different, that's for sure. There was a little sanding pad that you would strap onto your hand and rub it on your body in a circular motion. Then you would rub, and rub, and rub, and then rub some more. The hair would ball up and then you'd have to brush it away. It seemed to work pretty well but it took a very long time. I forgot to time it and see how long it took for the hair to grow back in.One method I for sure do not want to try is an epilator machine. Perhaps these days the're more advanced and streamlined, but I know the last time I saw one it was like a huge coil, almost like a ...

2007-02-01 10:29:01
Credit Card Debt Consolidation I went through this process some years back and while it was painful then, it's so great to be debt-free now. You have no idea what a relief it was when I made the final payment. Then again, I remember they accidentally deducted the regular payment amount the month after the final payoff as well. That took some time to get sorted out but they did me right and all is well. Being a teenager with two credit cards was lots of fun, until it came time to join the workforce and pay down those balances, which is impossible to do if you're just paying the minimum amount. I even once took a cash advance from one card to make the payment on the other. Ouch! Learn from my mistakes and don't ever get into big Credit Card Debt . It is a downward spiral that took a long time to get out of.What helped so much was to go to a Credit Card Debt Management place and have them work out payment arrangements with the debtors so that you can have a fixed low monthly payment a...

Sunny, Fun ny , Florida! Being of Euro pe an descent, I have a real zest for travel. Perhaps it's because so much vacation time is given. That's why you'll often encounter tons of tourists from Europe and some other overseas countries. My first visit to Florida was during a race my husband participated in near Lake Okeechobee. It was early Spring and still quite chilly at night although the days were warm and bright. My next trip to Florida was near a property in Orlando in December of 2000 when I drove there to visit my husband at school. My office was closed the whole week of Christmas, so I headed South and spent ten fun-filled days in wonderful Florida. What a great place to be when it was so cold back home up North. We even made a trip over to Tampa to visit his uncle. It was hard to leave this beautiful state and make the long drive back home. I hope to spend more time in Florida this coming summer.this is a paid post

Rock and Roll! If you've been reading this blog for any length of time you're aware that in addition to beauty, glamour, skin care, manicures, pedicures and makeovers I'm also into football. I know, I know, odd combination. I'm also really big into music and I love to sing. Singers typically write songs, as I have done.

For those of you who are ready now, there's still a little over a month left to submit your work and have it heard. We Are Listening is a London-ba...

Beauty Basic s At Face Value by R.L. Fielding Last year, more than eight-point-seven-million people underwent cosmetic procedures to enhance what nature gave them, or didn?t. But experts tell us that Americans may be jumping into invasive procedures too quickly. Despite the media coverage of makeover reality shows, the majority of Americans are not looking for extreme transformations. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, most of us want to look better, naturally, with 68-percent preferring a subtle change. And experts agree that looking your best could be accomplished at home for considerably less.Dr. Linda Franks, a leader in the specialized skin care frontier, says ?To get that timeless, healthy look you need to start with an appropriate skincare regime. Taking good care of your skin can stave off fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and even dry skin.? Where to begin? At the sink! Doctors say whatever your skin type, the key is to cleanse it gently.

It can be a bit bitter.The I in ZIP stands for Iron. Make sure you get enough Iron. Many women suffer from iron deficiencies. No wonder we have trouble growing out our fingernails and maintaining their length.P stands for Protein and I know that's a word you're familiar with.

For brittle/dry hair it's recommended that you use it daily to restore moisture balance in your hair.Jennifer uses SUDZZ FX Aquafix to hydrate her hair, as a restorative treatment.This is important to do, because chemical treatments, heated curlers/irons and blow dryers will all disrupt the moisture balance in your hair, resulting in unmanageable hair that is lifeless and dull.To target and soothe, smooth and restore moisture deficiencies way down in the hair shaft, use SUDZZ FX Aquafix.

Hurricane Katrina . It has not been fun being associated with one of the most powerful and destructive hurricanes ever to hit the U.S. At first it was kinda cool to have the same name as a hurricane. Katrina wasn't doing a whole lot, just skipping across southern Florida and causing the usual flooding and high winds. When Hurricane Katrina headed for Louisiana, things got a bit more exciting. However, streaming a local New Orleans news station on my computer the morning Hurricane Katrina hit, I quickly learned that this storm was more than anyone bargained for.A day or two later, my phone number was mistakenly given out on the air at a press conference. I went to the store for 1 hour and when I got back I had 137 voicemail messages! My phone continued to ring off the hook and through speaking with some of the callers, I was able to find out the source of the press conference. I then began work to contact them and ask them to please stop airing the press conference where the incorrec...

I Work from Home . Over the summer, my sister gave me some information on the idea of affiliate marketing. I saw this as a great opportunity to work and make money at home so I began building websites and blogs on topics that I have a passion for and along the way I have come across some great money-making opportunities, such as blogging for bucks with PayPerPost. I really enjoy being able to blog about certain topics and then see some extra money in my PayPal account. I will take all that money that I'm earning on PPP and put it towards savings. (I just went to a presentation by a Financial Planner this morning and made the decision then and there to put that money away for safekeeping.) So far my account reads that I'll be paid $40 and I've only been with the program for a very short time.

Bike to Get Fit and In Shape for the New Year beach cruiser blogOK, I had a bad experience with bikes when I was younger. I was going down a hill and picking up speed when suddenly the ?headshake? effect kicked in and my handlebars began wobbling from side to side and went out of control. After I came to, I remember yelling at my sister to ride home and go get mom. Luckily I was riding with my sister that day! I can?t imagine what would have happened if I had been by myself.That was years ago and water under the bridge. Speaking of bridge, I had to have some bridgework done because they were not able to reattach my teeth that were knocked out in the accident.But enough about that, already. That bike was of poor quality and probably possessed! We ended up giving it to the neighbors and their kid crashed on it too. I now love biking again. It?s a great form of exercise and it?s a lot of fun. OK, I know it?s January and not perfect weather for bike riding. Plan your summer vacation now ...

The Bois e State Broncos Win! They are the winners of the big Fiesta Bowl football game in Arizona. I went and did some research after watching the game yesterday and their tremendous last-minute score over Oklahoma.Boise, the capital of Idaho is becoming a hot area for congestion and quake-weary Californians as well as others seeking a better quality of life. The average daily temperature in Boise is 63 ? sounds good to me! Known as the City of Trees, there are also mountains, deserts, dunes and whitewater rafting nearby. How perfect is that?Boise has its share of cultural events too, with Ballet Idaho, Boise Art Museum and the Boise philharmonic orchestra, so you culture buffs will feel right at home in this great city. If you?ve got kids, take them to Zoo Boise for a fun day of edutainment.I?m reminded of the rock band Def Leppard in an interview talk about a show they played in Boise and hearing them say the word Boise in their English accents.

Happy New Year ! As I watch the Tour nament of Roses Parade on TV, I recall how I once marched in the parade with my school band. Unfortunately, my bridgework was dislodged during a New Year's Eve pizza party and my friend's father who was a dentist made an unsuccessful attempt to reattach the teeth, so I marched the entire 5 1/2 mile parade route without playing a single note on my instrument. Not that I didn't want to, I was physically unable to without my front teeth. I try not to dwell on it, but every year when I watch the parade I can't help but be reminded of it. Being in the parade was a good experience nonetheless and remains one of my fondest memories.

Five-Minute Make up Routine. If you're short on time in the mornings (and who isn't?) just take these seven quick steps and you'll be made up for the day. It takes just 5 minutes. Cleanse and moisturize your face, then apply your foundation. Dust on some bronzing powder to give you some color. Lightly put it on your cheeks, chin, middle of forehead and nose. One quick coat of mascara, then a neutral lip gloss and finish with a creamy neutral eye color on your eyelid and up to the browbone. It will dry to a powder and last all day. Off you go!

Makeup Tips for Women over 50 - If you're fifty and up, you might want to pay attention to these handy makeup hints.Start with a sheer foundation on skin that has been exfoliated. Be careful not to use too much foundation.Apply loose powder to set your foundation and make it more transfer-proof.Nothing worse than leaving foundation marks on someone's clothing after giving them a hug! The other night on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Ving Rhames left some foundation marks on Conan's cheek.Eyeshadow colors should be matte-finish with as little shine as possible as it will make wrinkles and fine lines stand out.As far as blusher / rouge, use a creamy blush right on the apples of your cheekbones. Be sure to blend well. The effect you're going for is that someone ran up and pinched your cheeks and made them rosy.Select a lipstick in a neutral shade.Apply eyeliner on the upper eyelids only. To put it on the bottom would only make your eyes look heavy and droopy.End with mascara.
