Grandma's Old-Time Remedy For Longer Lashes!

                                   Grow Your Lashes With....

Let's face it- longer lashes look better.
And even though yours may not grow as well as they did when you were
younger, false eyelashes certainly get the job done.
Well, you may want to retire those "falsies" and use something that your
grandma or great grandma used some 20 or 30 yrs. ago and what is that?
Castor Oil. 

Now, a lot of you reading this may not remember the tsp. of castor oil before 
heading off for school or before eating breakfast, but it's making a comeback--
as a beauty aid, more specifically- an eyelash enhancer.

Castor oil is rich in vitamin E and omega-6s, both of which speed hair growth,
and all you have to do is buy a bottle, put some on a cotton swab, (Q-tip) 
and apply to your lash line each night after taking off your makeup. 
And if your eyebrows are thinning, apply some to them as well. 
Do this for 2 to 4 weeks for longer and luxurious lashes (and brows).

One last tip:
A woman working as a hairdresser noticed that one of her clients
was losing weight, her skin looked softer and smoother and her hair
was growing at a rapid pace, and her clients' secret: She had gone on the
new and improved "Atkins diet."
The new diet allows for more green vegetables, chicken, fish and eggs.
And thanks to new research, a diet of wheat and other types of grains
not only affects your belly, ("Wheat Belly") it also slows down and
impedes hair growth.

That's it- A tip for all those out there that want their own longer and thicker lashes.

Good Luck!

Hollywood's Latest Tip For Applying Mascara!

                                Apply Mascara This Way! 

Do you apply mascara the way your mom, or best friend or
coworker does? 
Big mistake. Why?
Applying mascara isn't a "one-size-fits-all, type of thing.

That's right, just as you might apply your eyeliner or lipstick
a certain way, mascara is no different.
You should apply it according to whether you have close-set or
wide-set eyes.
If you have close-set eyes, try putting a little extra mascara
on the outer lashes.
And if you have wide-set eyes, add a few more coats to the inner
lashes.

That's it- hope this helps, just one mascara-challenged woman
(or man) out there.

Good Luck!

you pick the right mascara.

fully extending them outward.  One to try: L'Oreal Telescopic Shocking
Extensions Mascara, price-$10.00.
c) Want deeply curled lashes?
Look for a curved wand that cups your lashes as the mascara glides on,
making that pretty bend. One wand to try: Boots No. 7 Exquisite Curl Mascara,
price- $7.00 Look for it online at Target.com.
d) Want extended outer lashes?
Look for a butterfly wand. These asymmetrical wands lengthen your outer
lashes for a seductive look. One brand to try: L'Oreal Voluminous
Butterfly Mascara, price $10.00.
e) Want To Extend Each lash individually?
Look for a sphere wand that lets you precisely stroke individual lashes for
that Southern Belle fanned look. One to try: Flirt Have A Ball Mascara,
price--$17.00, available at Kohls.com.
f) Want Lower-Lash Length?
Look for a mini wand that lets you get close to your lower lashes, delicately
coating them with mascara. One to try: Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara,
available at Clinique.com, price $10.00.
Now that you have some tips on buying the right wand, here are
some tips on how to use that wand properly.
a) Upper Lashes-
Wiggle the brush as you glide it on, This keeps clumps
at bay and deposits more mascara at the roots.
b) Lower Lashes- 
Lightly roll the wand downward so you don't get mascara under
your eyes.
c) The Right Way To Finish Up-
Hold the wand vertically on your outer lashes, gently
pushing outward and upward.

Use these tips, and you may look as good as Ms. Longoria.

Good Luck!

Hollywood's Rxs For Using Mascara!

                                Use Mascara The Right Way! 

Think that wand of mascara is just for lush lashes?
Think again-Some Hollywood stylists say that using 2 different
types of mascara can make lashes look fuller and give you alluring eyes.

For the perfect lash, do the following-if you have both short and fine
lashes, you might need 2 different types of mascara.
First, apply a lengthening mascara to address the shortness. Then follow that
with a volumizing mascara to deal with the fineness issue.
Now, for the alluring eye look: You'll need two shades of mascara for this
look.
To do: Lightly sweep dark brown mascara on the inner half of your eyes-
where the lashes are naturally thinner. And then, flick on some deep black 
mascara on the outer lashes-where the lashes are naturally fuller.
Doing this will give you the sultry look you see on some stars.

Good Luck!
