Tips to look Slim!

There are times when you take a break from your sensible-eating and exercise regime and want to just lie back and enjoy all those forbidden foods. Well then you are bound to put on weight but until you have worked towards reducing the excess weight you can follow these few tips to look slim.

~ Stand comfortably erect and stick your stomach in. Good posture always makes you look slimmer.
~ Dark colours such as olive, black, charcoal grey, and navy help make areas appear smaller so wear them where you think you need it. For most women it's from the waist down.
~ Avoid shiny or heavily textured fabrics. Shiny fabrics reflect light, making any area appear larger. Heavily texture fabrics only add extra weight.
~ Sewn-down pleats in skirts and blouses can both create a slimming effect. Include vertical lines in your accessories, such as long chains worn around the neck.
~ Avoid extensive use of horizontal lines - belts, boat-collar blouses and border print skirts. These styles can add extra width to your body frame.
~ Your best asset is your face; so draw attention to it with scarves and jewellery worn around the face.
` Introduce simple lines, such as A-line skirts, tailor-notched, collared blouses and blazers. The oversized blazer is a great solution for camouflaging large derrieres and hips. Double-pleated skirts and trousers mask protruding stomachs and provide comfort as well.
~ If you want to appear thinner incorporate dark, cool and dull colours and textures. Dull textures absorb the light like wool or cotton. Some very slimming colours include black, navy, olive, violet, charcoal grey, chocolate brown, plum, eggplant and burgundy.

Tricks for all types of make-up

Make-Up Tricks

* For LARGER EYES try lining the inner upper and lower eyelids with a white eye pencil. * Applying BLUSH on the "apples of the cheeks" makes the face look wider.

* Keep your liquid FOUNDATION in the refridgerator if it\'s not used on a daily basis.

* Green eyeshadows used on eyes will draw attention to any under eye DARK CIRCLES.

* Try a navy eyeliner on BROWN EYES.

The following can contribute to SKIN BREAKOUTS (blemishes):
Frequent travel--ie flight attendants.
Dipping fingers into cosmetics--bacteria alert!
Using the other person\'s cosmetics.
Neglecting to frequently wash your personal make-up sponges and brushes.
Fried foods and chocolate.
Hormonal changes--adolesence or pregnancy.
Men shaving too often.
Using \"old\" cosmetics.
Using moisturizers that are too heavy for your skin type.
A poor skin care regimen.

* Try a BACK FACIAL. (Especially if you are prone to blemishes/acne on your back).
* Try THE DRY SPONGE for the fight against cellulite and a SLIMMER LOOKING BODY.
* If your SKIN IS OILY, try using a blotting powder instead of a pressed powder.
* Warmed up olive oil is very nourishing for the NAIL CUTICLES.
* Avoid waterproof mascaras, whenever possible, as they are drying to the LASHES. Try a waterproof eyeliner to line the eyes and a brow gel on your lashes. How about lash tinting?
* Using a toothbrush gently brush your LIPS every night with a mild facial scrub. Not only does this method help with the dryness but it also stimulates the blood flow on the lips for a more natural healthy lip colour.
