Most women like to feel pampered once in awhile.  A day at the spa, a manicure or pedicure,
or a massage can do wonders for a busy woman that is on the go. Pedicures give pregnant women
at time to rest their feet and be pampered.   Taking care of children and
working at a hectic job takes a lot out of us. All this combined you
really do need a little bit of pampering to keep you going in your busy lifestyle.  Unfortunately,
not all women can afford the luxuries of a spa day or a trip to the salon. If we could we would
probably spend more time there than at home. Sometimes we can only relax when we are alway from
home. If that is the case, why not bring the spa home by taking advantage of bath and beauty
products that you can use at home?

Makeup is an art where you can create an illusion that can transform one face into many
different personalities.

By applying makeup strategically you can enhance or minimize the effect that one part or
another on the face might have on your overall appearance.

While most women won’t have lips like Angelina Jolie there are some steps that can be taken
to enhance the ‘pout’ and give your lips a sexier look.

One of the tricks that makeup artists will use is to apply less color to the center of the
bottom lip.
Some refrain from using any color at all and in doing this they can create an illusion that
the lip is fuller in that area.
An alternative to this is to apply a shimmer to the middle of the bottom lip, as this will
give the same illusion as a lack of color in that area.
To make the upper lip look fuller, a makeup pencil can usually do the trick if applied
correctly.
This is done by penciling a light or white line just above the top edge of the lip in
the center of the ‘cupid’s brow’
This creates the illusion of a fuller lip.

There are various products on the market that are advertised as ‘lip plumpers’ and while
it isn’t possible for them to actually plump up the lips they can help to create that
illusion that the lips are fuller and for this purpose some of them do a really good job.

These products are designed to reflect the light when applied to the lips and this gives
the effect that the lips are fuller.

There is always surgery as a last resort but the products that are on the market can do a
really good job of creating sexy lips for most people and the results will look a lot more
natural than those you might expect from surgery.

Now if you don’t like any of them, leave a comment ok? Or if you do any of them..

Are you making this makeup mistake yourself? Sitting by the pool on a ship out in the middle of the ocean on my way to Mexico i saw this : A beautiful young lady with boyfriend in hand wearing the most next to nothing bath suit BUT she was wearing full blown makeup! Foundation (too dark, I could see it from where I was sitting with sunglasses on) eye shadow, eyeliner, blush lipstick with lip liner and gloss over that. When she got closer I saw she had a line along her chin where she did not blend the foundation. I had to look away, my husband sitting next to me asked me whats up, when I nod my head so he could see what I was looking at: started to giggle. He knows how much it kills me not to just ask her if she minded if I helped her blend the foundation at least. I saw women with babies with full makeup on, who has that kind of time?

OK when you are on vacation does that mean you need to wear all your makeup??? I was on my vacation wearing mascara only and if I remembered to, I added blush. Now I sell makeup, mineral eye shadows, blushes, mascara and magic lash. You would think that because I sell it and create mineral eye shadow colors, that I would go out of my way to wear it all. Nope I gave my face and eyes a rest. The only time I went all out was when we had formal night at dinner. I never went anywhere without sunscreen on!!

I will be sharing pictures soon of my trip..

I been people watching again, and I noticed something ever odd in a way. Older women wear too much makeup and teenagers are wearing less. Most teenagers are wearing less, there are still those that pile it on but most are going for that more natural look these days. Why hide behind layers of foundation? I will never understand that thought.

Do you use a eyelash curler? I noticed that with those that do and you can tell if its not used correctly, that their lashes curl from the base but its more of a square look. Like they go straight up from the base. It looks so fake! There is no real curl like you see on the models in ads. What happens when you use a eyelash curler that if you do not walk it up your lashes you get this more square look not a true curl. There are mascaras out there that say they curl but that still depends on how you are using it I guess.  I use Magic Lash which curls the lashes while you are applying the second coat of mascara over it. Opps sorry..
Magic Lash works like this:
You apply a layer of mascara
You then apply very little Magic Lash
You apply your mascara over it.
Its something you have to work with but I been using it for three years so to me its simple but for others maybe not so simple. Anyway back to eyelash curlers, I have one that is for those who have bad hands. It works great and I use mine when I don’t feel like going the extra steps of using Magic Lash + Black Magic Mascara.. Great set btw if you tell me that you read about it here, I will give you a free eyelash curler with your order. How awesome is that?
A good friend put out a DVD called Holiday Makeup Collection Volume One that shows you how to do glamorous makeup is and they used Magic Lash in 2 of their 7 hot looks! If you need a little help on this idea doing makeup correctly I been buying that DVD. I got to see it before it came out for sale and was blown away with the ideas for makeup tips in short 20 minute videos.

Just a few thoughts running through my mind today on what does your makeup say about you and a few tips given just for fun!

Giving of gifts is something we should be doing without thinking we must get something back. I was watching tv and saw a basketball player take 200 kids to Target with each child getting 200.00 to spend on themselves. Did you know that each child did not think of just themselves? No each child got gifts for family that would also be going without if they did not. That shows that there is still hope for the next set of children moving up in the world.

Happy Holidays everyone!

“Do we REALLY understand our purpose as women?”

Dear Kim:

Have you ever felt confused with all the information that has being given to you and then, be at a stand still for fear of making the wrong move?
Well, I sure have… plenty of times. The day I made a commitment to question the direction of my life, was the day I understood the meaning of the word responsibility. I can remember reading so much information on any topic and then feeling hesitant to take a step, afraid to make a decision for it could be the wrong one because I couldn’t use ignorance as an excuse any longer.. Exhausting!
Some deep breathing and a smacks across the head (my Italian upbringing came in handy), usually put me back on track. All this… “How do I fix it? How can I avoid this? How can I make it better?”… was shutting down my feelings. I was disconnecting with the very part of me that is female.. my heart.
So now, I needed to understand why I kept detaching from my feelings.
(I know, it sounds like I have a disorder).
During my endeavor, I recognized how to align with my feminine more deeply.
So what does that mean?
I’ve spent some time studying male and female energy and comprehending the meaning of each.
Let’s start by defining both.. first male energy.
It’s the element where drive, focus, discipline and purpose stems from. It is solution oriented always looking for the best strategy to accomplish the result needed. Male energy plans, organizes, leads and controls any situation to encourage success.
Now let’s look at female energy.
The energy is sensual, open, life force and creates space for emotions and feelings to flow. The feminine is a state inducer that enjoys revealing the senses. It’s sustained by color, sound, touch, taste, smell and intuition for it longs to feel love through everything and everyone.
Alright… now you have a brief description of both.
Can you see how living in a society where pursuing deadlines and achieving goals has denied our state of “being” and “feeling”.We are so busy planning with our minds that we tend to ignore our senses, our emotions and our bodies. We are walking around almost out of touch.
Luckily, some of us take yoga classes, dance classes, cooking classes, learn how to play an instrument… anything to get back into what our essence needs to feel nourished… Love.
What do I mean by love?
Our body and our heart yearns to be loved. Deep down we are wanting to be seen for who we are, beyond our suits that we wear to portray our professional lives.
Underneath each suit, lies a woman… a sensual woman who loves every part of her body, mind and spirit. She is vulnerable and wants to feel secure to surrender to the love of a  an without fear that he will be frightened by her demonstration of tears.
We’ve become purpose driven women who can achieve any goal we set, yet may have forgotten that our feminine needs to be nurtured.
So, how do we do that?
We embrace our purpose!
I’ve observed using your feminine energy, body language and compassion to inspire and invite a man to connect with his heart and yours while cherishing the value of your needs, keeps you aligned with your purpose.
In other words, entice and attract, keep your needs in the forefront of your mind and chop of his balls with LOVE when he doesn’t act with integrity.
Sound harsh?
Not really. Understand this isn’t an invitation to nag a man because you will repel him and it’s not an invitation to avoid expression what you need because he won’t see your worth. It is an invitation to come from a place of compassion (because we are all trying to do our best) and stand in your values.
So what does all of this have to do with body language and sensuality?
EVERYTHING!
This helped me realize that I am more than just flirting with a man… I’m inviting him to his heart because most men have a  difficult time with this.. it is not part of the male energy. And what makes a woman attractive is her ability to lead a man to his heart fist through her body language and most importantly through her heart.
This has given me a renewed sense of purpose… leading with my feminine energy!
This is why body language and sensuality is extremely important to learn.
I have realized how being in my body helps me connect with my feminine energy more.
This is why YOU need to read my book.
Insider you’ll see pictures and detailed descriptions of how to stand, walk, sit and use eye contact to achieve rapport with a man. You’ll find that each description to be easy to understand and effortless to accomplish.
