How to make a perfect holiday hair do.

Ahhhhhhh, the holidays. Candy, cookies, parties, and fabulous hair do’s. But sometimes fabulous hair do’s can be hard to pull off. I mean have you ever spent an hour on some fancy braided hair do only to find that it’s completely not right? I have. So here’s a simple hair do, that is still graceful, without being crazy.

1.Make a part down the center of your head, then take 1 small section of hair from each side.
2.Twist the sections of hair together.
3.Now take a smaller section of hair from 1 side and wrap that around the twisted “rope” of hair you have.
4.Take another small section from the other side of your hair and wrap it aroung the “rope”.
4.Secure with an elastic arounf the middle of the rope, so you can see the twisted strands.

So be graceful and not go crazy, with this easy holiday hairstyle.

How to makeand use a DIY milk cleanser.


Want an easy, natural, organic cleanser? Want an easy, natural, organic cleanser that works? Well duh, of course! But I'm busy, your busy, and we don't have time to go out and make a cleanser, right? Wrong! Just head out to your local grociery store...


And pick up some organic milk. If you have dry skin get 2% whole milk, or cream, and if you have oily to normal skin pick up 1% to skim. When you get home put around a teaspoon or milk in any glass or bowl, pour that teaspoon into your hands and then apply it on to a freshly washed face. Rub into for about a minute, wash the milk completely off and then BAM you're done.


Have a great day!

How to wear red lip stick.


Red lipstick, scary right? Awesome, but scary. Never thought you could pull it off? Well, you can, with just a little bit of help.

First of all you need to choose the right shade.


  • If you have pale skin you should probably go with a bright red to a pinkish red to keep from looking too severe. Stay away from dark or deep reds. Think Marilyn Monroe.

  • If you have pale to medium skin then deep or darker reds are perfect. Avoid bright reds, they’ll wash you out.

  • If you have medium to dark skin then dark, almost brown reds are good for you. Think Queen Latifa.


Secondly you need to make sure your lips are smooth. Exfoliate lips using a toothbrush. Then apply a thin layer of lip balm before the lipstick.


Thirdly, line your lips before applying lipstick. This will keep your lipstick from running. Make

sure the lip liner is exactly the same shade as the lipstick or you’ll look really, really stupid. To make sure you don’t choose the wrong color lip liner you can always just line your lips using clear powder and a q-tip.


And lastly, just put on your lipstick and admire.
