Tweezing those brows!

They draw so much attention to our eyes and really make them sparkle without being over-bearing.


Yes I'm talking about those caterpillars on your forehead and if you tweeze those brows following the science of symmetrical geometry, they will frame your face with beauty and grace.

Now don't get to worried about the science of symmetrical geometry since it's quite simple. ;)

Bye Bye Smudge.

Melting on a hot day?

No one like to have their perfect make up look melt away on them on a hot day. Even worse the eyeliner smudging down beneath their eyes, giving them the not intended smudged look of death.

Here is a quick and easy tip!

Bye bye smudge and hello sexy eyes!
