How To Have Longer Lasting Lipstick.

Here’s how to keep your lips looking great all day, so you don't have to re-apply your lipstick throughout the day.

Many says and I believe it depends on the Lipstick quality whether it last long on your lips or not.  But girls it is not the whole truth, Though the quality of lipstick really matters alot but sometimes even if we apply the same lipstick among the friend circle but still there comes a difference in longevity of lipstick. My friends  often ask me how do I manage to last the lipstick for longer period and having told them few steps for lipstick to last longer I am amazed myself after seeing  the result on them. A girl who has to reapply lipstick every two hours didn’t even had to retouch for more than four/five hours even after she uses the same lipstick she used to apply before. Isn’t it cool?

These are the quick and easy tips for lipstick to last longer than ever, it might need an extra effort but your lil effort is really worth it.. Try it once and see!! J

To begin with, these are the products i use to create a longer lasting lipstick. You can use lipstick, liner, balm, brush and powder of your choice:

1. Moisturize your lips before going to bed:  

Before going to bed it’s very important to apply balm to your lips because when we sleep we don’t intake any fluids and that might lead to dryness of lips and because of that when you wake up your lips feel rough and dry. So if the base is not clear its obvious what ever you apply on it wont stay for long and it looks so untidy.. So in vest on a good balm, I would recommend you guys to use the Body shop balm its on reasonable price and the products works really well. If you are looking for cheaper ones or if you don’t find any good balm the best option available is Vaseline it contains Petroleum Jelly which will keep your lips fresh, plump, juicy and even protect your lips from drying. 

2.  Clear the base:

                               Lips exfoliating scrub!!          Moisturizer and damp tooth brush!!                          

So you wake up with a fresh plump lips because you moisturized it the other night, So what next??  While washing your face see if your lips is still rough or not, if so gently use a lip exfoliating scrub or if you don’t have one gently massage with a good moisturizer and lightly scrub away the top surface of your lips with a damp toothbrush to get rid of dull and dry skin cells.

3.Balm to the rescue:

Once your lips is dry apply your favorite lip balm very lightly just so to make a perfect clear base, go for a wax like texture so that your lipstick stays longer if you don’t have one simply use your lip balm lightly and press a thin tissue in between your lips or over your lips so it takes away the excess oil from your lips. If you have lip primer you can use that instead of using balm in this step, but I prefer balm.

4.Draw with liner:

                                                                                                              

Define your lips with liner

create a base color with liner.

This step is really important. It’s always good to start with a liner to define the line of your lips and fill in lightly so as it will let your lipstick color stays for longer period and also it will make you look whole day as there is less chances of dissolving your lipstick. But there are many girls who don’t prefer using liner if you are one of them it’s  ok you can skip it. But yah doing so will give a better result.

5. Main girl:

So with the same or similar shade of lipstick start applying it around the lips till the border you drew earlier. If you know lipsticks won’t stick your lips for long try applying more of Matte texture rather than gloss because the glossy ones are easy to smudge and are more likely to fade on your lips. Even if you are using the gloss lipstick you can blot the juicy like texture with a tissue.

6. Tissue and Powder:

Take a thinnest tissue and place it on your lips and with the use of blush brush  dust a translucent powder like Make Up For Ever HD Powder over the lips, through the tissue. If you don’t have one you can even try with a simple powder preferably Johnsons baby powder.  This sets the color, without depositing a layer of powder.

7. Reapply the lipstick:

Reapply the lipstick gently; Adding a second layer of lipstick after blotting increases the pigment concentration relative to the creamy ingredients that are the enemies of lipstick longevity.

Now Smile you are all set to go J

Monsoon BUZZ

Yes it's official, our favourite monsoon season is here :) Its kind of taboo in our society saying that those who love rains and it's season are considered to be Romantic in nature, but trust me guys I am nill in it hence I proved this taboo completely wrong..

some of you might not like this weather but can't help, where to escape right?? Anyways here are some of the very important Monsoon Buzz/Tips/warning which I feel is important to be aware of and I will be so glad if my words can help and it is why I am here!!! TO HELP :)

1.MOISTURISE YOUR SKIN

Always put on your moisturiser+SPF!!! In this weather we feel that it's so cool outside with no Heat but Friends Sunlight is here+there+everywhere so always moisturiser your skin or else you will end up looking dusky and your natural skin glow and it's textures will fade eventually. So this is the most basic thing you can do to your skin!!

2.GO LIGHT ON MAKEUP

It is this season of the year where, LIGHTER THE MAKE-UP BETTER YOU're GONNA LOOK!!

FOUNDATION Avoid using too much foundation especially cream foundations.Use loose powder or mineralized foundation. Instead go for BB-cream or a CC-Cream which helps you to looks natural and along with that it is light and perfect when it rains.

LIPGLOSS Glosses are of complete no when it rains, Rains will wash off your lip glosses instead use water-proof lipsticks in matte finish. Even a simple lips with a touch of balm will look great, this season is all about a nude lip Do :)

BRUSHES Due to the rains the stuff inside our room will be all moistured,so in situation like this one should specially take care of their Make-up brushes because we directly use the Brush to our skin so it should be clean and well managed. keep it in a dry place safely, I would prefer keeping it in a box which have a safe cover.

SAY NO TO CREAM BLUSH Use all those powder blushes and eyeshadows because the cream blushes make you feel sticky and uncomfort and might also result to an itching due to which our face skin are more sensitive. Prefer using more natural colors in the Monsoon as you’re opting for a rain friendly natural look. Go for some natural colors like pinks, peaches and browns and it won't be a problem if they fade or wash off a little bit due to the water.

3.INVEST ON WATERPROOF PRODUCT

If you don't want to look like a gothic who has her eye liner scrolling down her cheeks Go for Waterproof liners and also waterproof Mascara, I am using Maybelling Gel Eyeliner + Maybelline waterproof mascara..They are good and affordable!!

4.WEAR COLORS

When it rains the sky looks dull so in contrast you should wear colorful cloths and stand out differently, Neons are perfect for this season. Say BIG NO TO WHITE because it will be completely transparent and visible inside out if you get drenched in rain so ladies make sure of the colors and give no chance to your haters to be happy of anything :)

5.FLIPFLOPS

Flipflops are a must haves, avoid wearing leather shoes or flats because if it get wet the size will change I guess it shrinks and in some cases it gets bigger. Instead prefer for some funky flipflop as it suits with all types of cloths... BUT make sure you choose a nice flipflop which has a good grip other wise you might slip anywhere anytime!!

6.AVOID STREET-FOODS

I know it's hard but we can atleast Try not to eat those agree foods because the bacteria and flies will get double after rain specially on the foods... It's your choice whether you want to stay hygienic or not..Because what you eat will eventually react on your skin!!

To conclude, I would like to remind you to always carry UMBRELLA in order to help you from so Much of trouble :)

OKAY then Stay Hygenic and Enjoy the Monsoon :)

Much love

When Do Girls Regret!!!!!

Without denying the fact that girls' life is more happening than the boys... NO I AM NOT BEING BIAS :) Be it the multi tasking skills that girls have or be it an over-thinking mind that makes her worry on such a small matter that boys don't give a Damn about. So it's all spice up life that girls go on through!!!!

Apart from the relationship related regretting matters I tried to point out few common regrets among girls. I consider the matter of relationship as private matter and I have no right to discuss on it.. Other than this, If you're a girl, you'll surely agree with my following points

WHEN DO GIRLS REGRET!!!!

1.HAIR CUT
(image-Google)
We love change, don't we :) Out of 100% girls 99.9% have chopped their hair and regret later. We miss our Long Hair...

2.OVER-EAT

(image-Google)
*when we are happy-We eat.
*When we are sad-We eat.
*When we are excited-We eat
since we girls are so much concerned about our weight, so after eating disastrous WE REGRET!!

3.WINDOW SHOPPING

(image-Google)
Its the best pastime therapy that most girls do even when we run out of our monthly pocket money. With the limited amount left we tend to eat at the food court and then our WINDOW SHOPPING here by starts..We might not enter every store in the mall but few are always a must go brand store for us :)
ZARA
FOREVER21
MANGO
LIFESTYLE
After entering these stores and eyeing over few of the favourite stuffs we go back and then WE REGRET WHY THE HELL I WENT because we can't stop thinking over the crop tops and fancy shoe from F21, those leather bags and the comfy shoe from Zara, Boyfriend jeans from mango, and the cheap yet couldn't afford Ginger floral clothing from the Lifestyle store... So until and unless we get those, We keep on regretting.

4.EXCESS SHOPPING

We go Crazy while shopping specially when the sale season begins :) and We tend to shop as if there's no tomorrow to spend money at. So before month comes to an end our budget becomes tight and then comes a REGRET point WHY DID I SHOPPED SO CRAZY.

5.CATFIGHT

(image-Google)
As we over-think in all the small invisible matters related with our life and around, it disturbs us indirectly and boost up our mind which result in short tempered that finally brings argument or a catfight with the people around. GIRLS are usually very emotional.After sometime we realise we were just over reacting on a small matter and then again WE REGRET..

Besides having all these regrets in a girls' life we still tend to live our life to the fullest by spreading love where ever we go!!!!!!

live the current moment with no regrets because we can't go back once it's gone
