THE PERFECT MAKEUP FOR DARK SKINNED LADIES, VIEW HERE

Makeup artist Tracy Peart knows black women struggle with different problems when it comes to makeup and beauty. To help you along the right path, she shared her top tips for your skin, your blush colour, and your lips. Here’s her advice:
Skin:
One of the biggest problems black women have with their makeup is having their skin appear too ashy. Here’s a couple of reasons why this could be happening:Someone who has red undertones in their skin is wearing a makeup with yellow in it. This combination will make your skin appear ashy.Another reason you may look ashy is because you’re applying too much powder. Powder is usually sold with a sponge, but those should only be used for touch ups, not the initial application. When you apply powder with a sponge, you’re going to apply way too much powder, and it’s going to end up looking like an ashy mask. It’s best to use a face brush and sweep on your powder. Let the foundation you put on underneath do all the work of covering up imperfections. Don’t do it with your powder, as you run the risk of putting on too much.Another big problem with black makeup is having the makeup turn darker as the day goes on. Here’s a couple of reasons why that could be happening:
If you have yellow undertones in your skin and you’re wearing a makeup with too much red undertones, your skin will appear darker than you are.
Black women tend to have oilier skin. When the oils in our skin mix with foundation or powder, the makeup becomes darker throughout the day. So, if you know your skin is very oily, try a foundation that’s one shade lighter than your skin to help balance this out. You might look a bit lighter than usual for the first hour it’s on, but as the day goes on, it’ll even out. As well, if your skin is oily, don’t keep adding more powder to your face to get rid of the shine. All you’re doing is making a mask of makeup, and the makeup will just get darker and darker. Try buying a blot powder, which doesn’t add any more colour or makeup to your face. They’re just formulated to get rid of shine. It’s a much better option.

Blush:
If you’re still looking a bit flat, with no warmth to your face, it could be because you’re not wearing any blush. Blush is another way to add warmth to black skin. A lot of black women are afraid of blush because they might think it looks too artificial on our skin, since we don’t naturally have flushed cheeks, but it’s all in the color you use. Stay away from light colours. All they’re going to do is make us look ashy.
We have two choices. We can go with dark colors like burnt orange-y browns or dark berries and plums. Or if you’re darker-skinned like me, go with very bright colors like powerful pinks and bold oranges. I already know I’ve scared some of you, but listen. They might look shocking in the packaging, but you have to remember you’re painting them onto a darker surface and they won’t show up like that on our skin. Believe me. Because they’re so bold, they’re the colours that will show up on our colouring and give the skin life! The key is to build the colour and don’t just slap it on. Don’t fight the bright…it works!
Lips:
As for lips, almost the same rules applies. Obviously, darker skin tones don’t look great in pale, light lipsticks. Deeper tones are always a safe bet (like wines, deep reds, browns and plums). But I say we can wear the bright reds, pinks & oranges as well, I always just suggest lining the lips first with brown lip liner or lipstick underneath. What that does is help neutralize the bold colour you’re going to put on top, so it’s not as true to colour and won’t be as shocking against our skin, but it’ll still be fun and bright. Don’t just go directly on with a bright colour without neutralizing your lips first.

DRESSING FOR YOUR BABY BUMP,VIEW PICS

amazing things you'll ever do, so flaunt it.
Here are a few tips for the sexy mums-to-be..
  • Stick with what you like .Just because your body is changing doesn't mean you need to transform your wardrobe.






  •  When you're five, six or seven months pregnant, accentuate your stomach because it's sexy. You don't want to look bigger when you're pregnant, so stretchy dresses will show off your shape in a good way



    • Plunging necklines are really sexy on pregnant women.

    • When in doubt, accessorize with oversize jewellery like shoulder-dusting earrings and statement necklaces.


     


    •  If you are very big or worried about weight, try dressing in one solid colour.

    • No matter what your body shape, maxi dresses are a great option for a stylish pregnancy wardrobe. Choose from short-hemmed or full-length dresses (if you don't like your arms, simply add a jacket for a chic look). Wear them with heels or flats and love the comfort!

    Signs that you are dating an immatured man! read more here

     Dating an immature man can be frustrating and plenty annoying. There is nothing worse than spending your time and energy on someone who doesn’t seem to be on the same maturity level as you. If your guy just isn’t up to par, he may be emotionally and mentally immature. Here are 14 signs that your guy is merely a grown-up boy instead of a mature man. He doesn’t like to commit
    The man you’re dating just doesn’t want to commit to anything. He doesn’t want to dedicate all of his time to something when he prefers to do something else. Getting him to spend quality time with you is like pulling teeth. Having him say yes or no to something is all but impossible but the word maybe is one of the most used words in his vocabulary.
    He always points the finger

    When something goes wrong, it is never his fault. Instead, he resorts to pointing the finger at everyone else. He is not one to readily take or accept blame. And when he is obviously in the wrong, he still finds ways to brush some of the blame off on you or someone else. The finger is never ever pointed at him.
    There’s no depth to him

    When a man has matured, he has some depth to him. He has inner secrets, stories, and true emotions. However, an immature guy has a surface and nothing more. He has nothing exciting to share about his life and he goes along with what everyone else thinks and says. He’s about as shallow as a kiddie pool. His lack of depth is bound to make any woman bored.
    He doesn’t have a steady job

    This man never has a steady or stable job. Instead he works at the mall for two weeks, then goes to the grocery store, then works part time at Home Depot. Since he lacks a steady job, he rarely has a consistent flow of money coming into his pockets. At the same time, this guy has no desire to find a steady job either.
    He’s never had a meaningful relationship

    When he talks about his past dating experiences, he’s never mentioned a long-term relationship. Instead he talks about one night stands and girlfriends that lasted all of two weeks. Men who are immature are typically unable to hold a steady and stable relationship. This is a huge red flag as your relationship with him won’t likely last either.
    I love you is out of the question

    This guy rarely talks about his emotions and feelings for you. While he’ll admit to loving his car, his expensive shoes, and the newest XBox game that he purchased, he will never say that he loves you. This means that you’re setting yourself up with having to to deal with an emotionally immature man who will never express himself. When something has gone wrong or you need his help, you can’t rely on him to come to your rescue. If you need someone to watch your dog for a few hours or if your car needs a hot shot, he isn’t on your “to call” list. He prefers to focus on himself and nothing but. In events that you’d expect him to step up, he never does.
    He has absolutely no worries

    Your guy lives a carefree life and lives day-to-day. As long as his video games are working and his car is running just fine, life is peachy keen to him. He doesn’t worry about money, living a fulfilling life, or working on ways to better impress you. He prefers to be care and worry free.
    Everything is in your court

    Even if his life depended on it, you know that this guy could not make a decision. Instead, he always throws the ball back into your court. No matter if it’s something simple such as deciding what to have for dinner, you can never expect him to provide you with a solid answer or plan of action. Instead he avoids having to make decisions.
    He never makes plans

    So you want to go out to dinner? Go see a movie you’re interest in? Go on a weekend vacation? Well too bad. When it comes to making plans and sticking to them, you know that’s simply too much for your guy. He won’t make plans more than a day in advance and when he does, he often cancels them because something else comes up.
    He’s materialistic

    He’s still stuck in the world of a young boy. He loves anything and everything that is flashy, shiny, and expensive. He buys new rims for his car every other month. He upgrades his flat screen if his friend buys a bigger and better one. The material things in life are one of the top priorities to him.
    He’s inconsiderate

    He’s extremely selfish when it comes to all meanings of the word. His priorities are always more important than yours. He can’t be bothered with caring about anyone but himself. He sucks at tipping and is rude to a lot of people.
    He’s a moocher

    Though he has some money of his own, this guy prefers to be a mooch. While he has the money to buy new video games every week, he doesn’t have the money to pay his cell phone bill. He has no shame in asking you, his parents, or his boys for money. He prefers to mooch off of everyone instead of doing things for himself.
    He has no real life plans

    He has no idea what he wants to do for a living. He has no interest in earning any type of degree. He’s clueless as to what direction he wants to steer his life in. He prefers to live day-to-day and take thing as they come to him. This guy isn’t worried about his future and could care less about where he goes in life.

    Some mistakes people make after a break up,Read here

    Breaking up is never an enjoyable part of the dating game, but sometimes it’s more than necessary. The key though, when you find yourself on the wrong side of a breakup, is making you sure a) don’t have a complete breakdown, b) don’t end up in jail, c) don’t end up in the same situation again. Here are 15 mistakes people make after breaking up, so be sure to avoid them if you really want to be able to move on from this.
    Rebounding with a new relationship

    After breaking up with your ex, a big part of you is going to miss being in a relationship and you’ll crave the companionship that you once had. However, one of the worst things you can do after getting out of a relationship is rebounding with a new one. Getting into a relationship immediately after ending another doesn’t give you time to heal nor does it give you time to regroup and figure yourself out again.
    Trying to maintain a friendship

    After a break up, the two of you may feel pressured to try to remain friends. You know a lot about each other and clearly you still care about each others’ well being. However, trying to maintain a friendship after a fresh break up is never a good idea. It puts all sorts of stress on both of you as you try to somehow remain friends but ex-lovers. Work on being friends later on down the line, but right now, focus on healing and focus on you.
    Hiding true emotions

    After breaking up with a man, you’re bound to feel a rush of emotions. From sadness to anger to confusion to frustration, being emotional after a break up is okay. Emotions only become problematic when you don’t admit to them or allow them to show. Even if you don’t want to be sad or angry, if you bottle these emotions inside, they’ll come out eventually, and most likely in the worst way possible. Admit and acknowledge your emotions, and release them, or else you’ll be even worse off. There’s no need to fake a smile when you aren’t happy.
    Throwing everything away

    If you were with your ex-boyfriend for a good amount of time, it’s likely that he’s bought you some pretty nice gifts. Though you may want to trash all of these in the heat of the moment, restrain yourself from doing so. That Coach purse he bought you doesn’t belong in the trashcan and that gold diamond necklace he purchased on your anniversary isn’t garbage.
    Stalking your ex

    Breaking up usually means cutting all contact, which can be really hard to do — and may cause you to go into stalker mode, where you look at your ex’s Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram daily to see what he’s up to and to keep an eye on any new women that he may be talking to. Going into stalker mode will only cause drama and tension.
    Break up songs and their lyrics don’t mean too much to us until we’re going through it ourselves. If you’re really looking to heal and move on from this experience, avoid listening to sad break up songs. Have a good cry, and be angry, but don’t blast Adele all day and night, or else you’ll never heal. Put on something more inspiring and uplifting instead and let music help you heal.
    Destroying stuff

    Some break ups aren’t nice ones, to say the least, and many times when a break up isn’t mutual, one partner is angry. If you’re breaking up because of cheating or some other reason, you may feel inclined to ruin your ex’s clothing and other personal items. Though it’s a good way to vent and let out some frustration, the fact is that destroying someone else’s property is petty and can be considered a crime as well. Box it all up and leave it at that.
    Seeking revenge

    After a bad break up, revenge can feel like pure bliss, because in the end, you win, right? Wrong. Seeking revenge on your ex by keying his car or posting personal pictures all over the Internet will only make you angrier and even more frustrated. Revenge can lead to all sorts of legal trouble as well. Let your revenge be the fact that by breaking up with you, he lost a great woman.
    Begging to be taken back

    Any break up can leave someone blindsided, even if things weren’t going extremely well lately. When you really love and care about someone, it can be hard to let them go, and this may lead you to think that you can somehow reconcile and make things okay again. After breaking up, don’t beg this man to take you back or to reconsider. Accept it for what it is and move on the best you can, otherwise you face even more rejection.
    Staying in contact

    Once a break up decision is made, there is no need for you two to communicate about much at all. Don’t text him later that night asking how he’s feeling and don’t call him the next day asking when you will see him again. Staying in contact only makes healing and moving on that much harder. Even if you have some words that you’d really like to say to him, don’t. If you two need to figure out something important, such as how to figure out a shared lease, ask friends to act as a middleman for communication.
    Separating yourself from others

    One of the worst things you can do after breaking up with someone is to isolate yourself. This is a point in your life when you need as much support and love as you can get. Don’t separate yourself from friends and family who will more than willingly help you through this tough time. Now is when you need support the most.

    Making some drastic decision

    Ending a relationship can leave us in a very weird place both mentally and emotionally. After a break up, you may feel the need to do something drastic; something you’ve never done before. Going out and getting a tattoo or chopping all of your hair post-break up may not be the best decision. Skipping town and moving to another state may not be too wise either. Drastic decisions after a break up are often rash and not well-thought out. Hold yourself back until you can really make reasonable choices.
    Giving up on relationships altogether

    All break ups sting and all break ups hurt. However, there is no need for you to give up on relationships and dating completely. Just because this relationship ended doesn’t mean that the next one will. When you find that guy who was meant to be with you forever, breaking up with ex’s in the past will stand as mere learning opportunities. Don’t let this stop your quest for love.
