Avoid Wrinkles & Protect Your Eyes at the Same Time

 

I would imagine that most people never give it a thought about their eyes and how a precious gift it is to have clear vision and be able to see! Our eyes are one of the most precious resources we have and to loose site (no pun intended) of this could create the cost of not seeing clearly or at all.

Squinting or tears from bright outdoor light- This is a defense mechanism to protect the eyes from the UVA ray. that can over time cause permanent damage including certain eye diseases. "In order to prevent diseases from affecting your eyes, you must wear sunglasses that are at least UV400, and keep your eyes shaded as much as possible."


So the common sense solution is to wear sunglasses. Less squinting equals fewer fine lines and crow’s-feet! Pick a pair that looks great as well as give you the best protection.  I love the aviator style sun glasses. RayBan as some really cool styles. Why do you think pilots for decades where that shape!!!

Not only will wearing sunglasses protect the delicate skin around your eyes from the sun, but it’ll also help prevent squinting, which directly contributes to wrinkling.

Hey Mom's out there .....here's another reason to consider your children and introducing them to wearing sun glasses. It's in fashion plus you will help them protect their eyes and protect their skin around their eyes as well!

How to Contour Your Face

SomethingBeautiful4You.blogspot.com

Contouring your face gives the illusion of a more perfect appearance. By contouring your face, you can hide structural imperfections, give your face balance and highlight features. 

The most common areas to contour are cheeks, nose, forehead and chin. Contouring these areas gives the appearance of a balanced face. You can also contour eyes and lips to make them look bigger or smaller, fuller or slimmer.

Here's how to do it:
1.  Using the Motives Cheek Contour Brush, pick up the darker shade on the angled side of the brush. Use a sweeping motion to shade underneath your cheekbone, making sure to blend evenly. 
2.  Now, pick up the lighter shade on the angled side of the brush and shade above the cheekbone and above eyebrows using a sweeping motion.
3. Looking at the triangle pic above,  you will see the lighter shade inside of the triangle- darker shade outside, with a shadow of light shade under the eyes extend a little further out.

 One of my most favorite products in the Motives line of cosmetics is the Motives Shape and Sculpt Duo.  It is a double-sided compact with light and dark shadows that you need to highlight and contour like a pro!  It is a two in one product that glides on softly and feels like velvet to your skin.

 The Motives Shape and Sculpt is great because of these benefits:

• Two-in-one highlighter and matte contour powder
• Luxurious formula that glides on smoothly to highlight and sculpt
• Designed for all skin types
• Non-irritant formula
• Paraben, oil and fragrance free
