I usually don’t write about myself so matter-of-fact, but I was asked this question several times about, how do I do my two-tone lipstick? and how can others do the same to make it look good? That’s very kind and thank you for asking. I’ll tell you how and why I do the two-tone lip.
First the why, I’m very big into shading and definition when it comes to art and life, so why not with makeup as well. I like playing with dark colors, but I have a very fair complexion, so bold, one dimensional lips can wash me out instantly. Adding a shading element can allow me to play with colors, whether it’s being bold or subtle.
Now the how. To get the two-tone look is really quite simple. It’s 3 easy steps.
Step One: Apply foundation on lips to keep the lip liner from bleeding.
Step Two: Choose your favorite lip liner and apply. Then, press and smear into the the foundation. This gives you a two-tone look immediately. Be sure to blend it in so it’s not just a distinct line around your lips. Remember shading is the key.
Step Three: Apply a neutral or clear gloss to the lips and press together. Blend where needed. Don’t forget to blot.
And, there you have extreme lip definition with a two-tone lip.

One of the biggest questions I get is, how to get beautiful, shiny hair. There are a ton of products on the market. But, my first suggestion to trigger healthy hair is from the inside. A great thing to add to your diet is flax seeds.
Flax seeds have many medical benefits, which is a plus for those trying to reap the physical benefits, like great strong hair and beautiful healthy skin.
Sprinkle flax seeds in any food. Add to yogurt, pastas, soups salads, etc. They have a good light flavor and help with food digestion.

The weather is finally starting to change. Get your rough feet ready for exposure by mixing together Vitamin E and table salt.
Open up a capsule of Vitamin E and apply to heels of feet and other rough areas. Then sprinkle on some table salt and rub the area.
Knock the salt off before putting on socks and shoes, but don’t wash off. Allow the mixture to do it’s job.
It maybe necessary to repeat over several days to get ideal softness.

Taking a tip from The Brady Bunch can be a bit harsh on the hair if you are brushing a hundred strokes with the wrong brush. But, not brushing your hair can cause damage. We lose strands everyday, and bushing it releases those strays from tangling and knotting around healthy locks.
It’s important to brush your hair out before wetting. Getting rid of knots while the hair is dry, is actually more gentle since you can help de-tangle it easily. Like any other knot in this world, wet knots tend to be tighter, so they can pull out more healthy hair. So before you wash it, take a brush to it.
And, a good side note: keep a brush in your bag to brush it out when you take a trip to the salon. Your locks will be grateful.
