Health and Beauty Tip -- Cut Back on Coffee
How much is too much? Any more than four cups of caffeinated coffee each day can lead to bladder irritation. The same amount of caffeine in chocolate, caffeinated tea, or cola can do the same thing, so watch your intake!
Health and Beauty Tip -- Color or Highlight?
Women with shorter hair tend to look better with a full color job than with highlights. Medium to long hair looks wonderful with highlights, especially if your hair is also long around the face.
Quote of the Day
If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Vitamin C Before Bed?
If you take a vitamin C supplement, make sure to take it earlier in the day. Taking vitamin c late at night can actually contribute to sleeplessness.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Cover Roots Quickly
If you need to cover your roots and don't have time to dye, use eyeshadow! Spray on a little hairspray, then pat a little eyeshadow along your visible hairline. Gold works best with blonde, and brown works best for dark hair or for covering gray.
Quote of the Day
I think the key is for women not to set any limits.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Look Thinner in Photos
The way you pose can affect how you look in pictures! To make yourself look thinner, turn a bit sideways with one foot in front of the other, put your shoulders back and your chest out. Not only does it look good in photos -- it's also good posture!
Quote of the Day
The best way to learn to be a lady is to see how other ladies do it.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Not Used to Makeup?
If you're new to (or bad at) applying makeup, start with your lipstick. The color and brightness will be a good gauge as to how much you should make up your eyes and cheeks. Remember, never draw attention to more than one part of your face at a time!
Quote of the Day
God gave women intuition and femininity. Used properly, the combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I've ever met.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Lipstick as Blush
Lipstick can be used as a long-lasting blush, provided you apply it lightly and sparingly. Lipstick has a much darker pigment, and a little goes a long way.
Quote of the Day
Some of us are becoming the men we wanted to marry.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Applying Concealer
When applying concealer under your eyes, pat, don't rub. You'll use less and get more out of what you do use.
Quote of the Day
Not only is women's work never done, the definition keeps changing.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Soft Feet
The tough skin on your feet benefits from the heavy moisturizing properties of lanolin. Whether you apply it during the day or under socks before you go to sleep, you'll notice softer skin on your feet in no time!
Quote of the Day
I have never met a woman who, deep down in her core, really believes she has great legs. And if she suspects that she might have great legs, then she's convinced that she has a shrill voice and no neck.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Great Hair at 40
If you're over 40, try a shoulder-length, layered haircut. Short hair and blunt cuts aren't as flattering. No matter what cut you go with, don't overstyle. Less is more -- keep it natural-looking.
Quote of the Day
I refuse to believe that trading recipes is silly. Tunafish casserole is at least as real as corporate stock.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Sunscreen vs. Sunblock
What's the difference? Sunscreen absorbs UV rays and scatters them, while sunblock reflects them entirely.
