Here, we’ll provide five different looks that will wow anyone that dares look your way, and give you that extra little skip in your step on your next big date.

Fly like a bird. 

You’ve undoubtedly noticed the trend of the winged eyeliner adorning celebrities and normal humans alike. This beautiful can be absolutely gorgeous if applied properly, following the upward curve of the outside of the eye and just past it with your eyeliner.

There is a fantastic and quick tutorial for how to get this look that can be found on Beautylish.com. The look is simple, lovely, and a different take on the traditional look that eyeliner provides.

Pretty in pink. 

For a beautiful, girlish glow, go with a light application of a pink eye shadow and then pump up the mascara. You barely need any eyeliner for this look – just a bit for effect. Lining the lower rim of the eye with a nude pencil will add a level of brightness, as well. Use a sparkly pink eye shadow for a more flirtatious look.

The sensual look. 

Sticking with neutral tones for eyes and lips lends to an incredibly natural and sensual look. Opt for less eyeliner and a color for the lips that is close to naked - Mac’s Freckletone is a great option.

For the eyeshadow, consider earth tones that have a subtle sparkle to them and apply the color generously across the lids. Finish with a dark brown mascara for a look that says you have it all…but you want more.

The vixen. 

Smoky eyes make for a look that says you know what you are looking for and will settle for nothing less this Valentine’s Day. Sephora provides a great tutorial on how to get a beautiful smoky eye.

Don’t forget to use a lighter shade just under the eyebrows and at the inside corners of the eyes to really brighten and provide a balancing effect for the darker, smoky look.

Innocent eyes. 

As far as men are concerned, nothing says attractive like a woman who can rock it with little to no makeup on.

Not only does this speak to a level of confidence a woman has in her natural beauty, but it also lets a guy know that this is exactly what he’s getting, and that you won’t be spending hours in front of the mirror each morning getting ready.

For a subtle but effective touch, add some falsies at the outer eye (no mascara) and wear a clear but shiny lip gloss for completely kissable, innocent lips.

Inspire both love and excitement with a sexy makeup look that is best for your personality and mood, whether you want to be pretty-in-pink charming or vixeny during your next hot date with that special someone.

  1. Okay, I have tried that "winged" technique and it was a disaster. I think I better stick the more "natural" looks, but your forgot pics of many of those. They would be helpful. Thanks! :)

Home remedies for sleeplessness

The day dawns beautifully for those who have had a night of good sleep. But the same day drags on for those who have spent a disturbing, sleepless night. Sleep is a biological necessity even as eating and drinking are. Sufficient sleep renders a person normally sociable, lively and high-spirited. It’s a nature’s way of rejuvenating the person for the next day. Realize all this, and make sleep a physiological habit. The consequences of long time sleep deprivation can be very grave. Lack of sleep takes its toll on the skin and hair. It causes acne-breakouts and makes one look aged and haggard beyond years. Experts opine that during sleep as our metabolic rate falls, blood goes to those areas which need the most repairing. This also steps up the production of collagen and keratin, which aid the regeneration of skin cells and help resist premature ageing. So for a younger looking and a problem free skin you need to have a good quality of sleep every night.

It is usually common among school children but soon spreads to other members of the family. Contrary to popular belief, it is not a sign of poor hygiene, as lice are not fussy whether they lay their eggs in clean or dirty hair. But yes, a dirty scalp can well serve as a perfect breeding ground for these tiresome creatures. Lice get transferred easily from child to child owing to the close contact of heads, during play, while sitting together or by sharing caps. Though there are many chemical and herbal over-the-counter preparations to remove lice, it is better to refrain from using them for they might also remove a good bit of your hair, while others could have a drying effect on the hair.  There are many home-remedies which do work well but the age-old method of regular combing with a close-toothed comb on all counts, is the most eff...
