The 10 Best Mascaras According to Elle Magazine

If you had to have only one makeup for the rest of your life.  Or say you had to leave everything you own except take just one makeup item with you, what would it be? Lipstick? Lip gloss?  Facial Powder?  According to Megan Cahn, the writer of the article I read on Elle.com who believes that most women makeup of choice would be the mascara.  So she has, with the help of beauty editors and staff from Elle Magazine, put together the 10 best mascaras there is out there for us women. How nice of her curvy divas!

Of the ten selections she has made. I have chosen my three (3) favorite.  I haven't used any of these before and will definitely put the ones I like on my want list for this year!

The mascara that looks so fake (but your lashes are real)!

"The 'They're Rea' mascara is so good, it looks like you're wearing fake eyelashes"! This according to Leah Chernikoff.  Hmmm, no you see why this is one of my three favorites?! Who wouldn't want their lashes to look full and gorgeous?!

Maybelline's Colossal Volume Mascara
Senior News Editor Sarah Holmes said she loves Maybelline's Colossal Volume mascara because it gives her thick, clump free lashes.  I like my eyelashes to be volumnous and I dislike clumps. They always makes me feel as if I'm going blind! Have that ever happened to you?  Mental note that this will be the next mascara I purchase.



Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara
The look of this mascara is aesthetically pleasing to me.  I like that it has a curved wand which means my lashes will be coated with lots of love!lol! No seriously, Fashion Editor Danielle Prescod has used the Diorshow brand and loves it because she can put a lot of it on and not have goob of it on her lashes.  I definitely want to try it.

I love this list and will definitely keep it as a reference guide. Do let me know if you found this helpful, or not.  Follow the link  to find out which were the other seven on the list of the 10 best mascaras.

Fall 2012 Trends

Summer is not yet over but already the fashion world has moved on, for some time now, to Fall !  I love to peruse any information I see about Fall Fashions before the season begins too; learning what the colors and styles will be, and to see if there are any trends to follow. Where trends are concerned, I firmly believe that it is best to choose the look that will work best for you.  You can follow a trend, but you should tweak it to make it your own! This is how you discover your own sense of style! I love receiving emails from Ken Downing, Fashion Director for Neiman Marcus !  He shared quite a lot of details in his latest E-mail newsletter to me!  To start off, one of Fall's fashion trend will be the: Statement Handbag : Michael Kors Skorpios Haircalf Ring Tote - $1,695 from Neiman Marcus on neimanmarcus.com Yes, animal print continues even into the Fall season!  Budget conscious divas will do what we do best and shop around for th...

How to Wear Glitter in the Daytime

Have you ever worn sequin aka glitter?  It is pretty much a trend in fashion these days.  Glitter is worn mostly at nights and for real special and dressier occasions. But not so today curvy divas. Glitter can also be worn during the day!  I've worn glitter during the day time before and I try to make it look as understated as possible!  You don't need too much accessories when you wear glitter.  It is pretty much how you put your outfit together! On Elle.com Amanda Fitzsimons interviewed designer Marissa Webb who is known for using sequins during the daytime!  Amanda wanted to know if this look (daytime glitter) can really work? Marissa said it definitely can and thinks it is in how shine the sequinned (or glittered) garment that choose to wear is. It is not just in the size of the beadings at all! I tend to agree with her.   I don't think a really shiny sequinned garment on its own, would work for daytime. That would definitely be overkill! ...

The Best Hair Color for You

You choose your outfit with care, down to the shoes you wear for that particular look.  You put your makeup on, and now it's time for your hair.....why is it not looking its best?  Everything that you do in trying to style it, is just so wrong!  You're ready to scream or pull your hair out!!!! Have you ever had a bad hair day?  I know I have, more than once!  Usually, if I'm lucky, I'll have time to wear a hat, a wig or pin my hair in a way to make it work!  It doesn't matter who you are, for every woman, if your hair isn't at its best, you will not be too ! When you have your hair, as some might say "did" or "done" you know you will be at your fabulously curvy best !  One of the  things I like to do is color my hair. Yes, it's chemical, so I guess I'm not totally au naturel!  You can try a rinse, which is a way to temporarily color your hair with a new look, or you can use a permanent color and rock your hair the way you want! ...
