Image
Make-up Tips, Mineral Make Up and Makeup Made for Oily Skin S ociety almost demands of women that they wear make-up, and not just some of the time. Some women feel they cannot even leave their homes without make-up on, and in many professional environments  an unmade face might be considered almost obscene.  At least a social faux pas , going around without make-up on in some places just cannot be done. It would be almost impossible to find a woman anywhere that did not wear make-up to her own wedding or senior prom, for instance. Sometimes, there is no escape from make-up.

When the jeweler started setting in diamonds my friend kept saying, "A little bigger one please." I finally said, "Okay, that's big enough for me and I'm sure it's going to cost a fortune." Frank just grunted. Two weeks later I had my new wedding ring .       I  proudly wore my new diamond for about 8 months when one night as I was getting ready for bed I took it off and had it in my hand. Just as I went to flush the toilet I dropped my ring. I started screaming as it was being flushed away. By the time Frank got into the bathroom I was screaming and sobbing. At first he was relieved to find out that I wasn't mortally wounded. He then said there wasn't much he could do about it so we should just go to bed.       I  got up early and asked the kids not to use any water in the ...

T he Maxi dress is a leading trend for Spring and Summer 2017 and made its way to New York Fashion Week runways in an array of floral patterns, bold prints, and block-color styles. It's a romantic and very-feminine look that's perfect for the warmer months ahead, and can be paired with espadrilles, wedge sandals, or simple ballet flats.

I hear a lot of complaints from women who say that makeup "just doesn't sit right" on their skin or that it feels heavy, or worse, that it looks too obvious that they are wearing it.
