ITS TIME TO TAKE A BROW! (HOW TO ACHIEVE PERFECT BROWS!)


Hey Girlies! No matter what the shape of your face, you can achieve the perfect brows! I personally pencil in my brows daily, and when I dont, I feel like i have an INCOMPLETE face!  WELL! ive found this great picture on Google that should be a big help to us all! Im going to focus on the Round Face shape.

ROUND FACE

  • FACE WIDTH AND LENGTH ALMOST THE SAME
  • WIDEST AT THE CHEEKS

GOAL

  •  TO MAKE ROUND FACE APPEAR TO BE LONGER

SOLUTION

  • A HIGH ARCH EYEBROW SHAPE. ITS UP AND DOWN LINES WOULD DRAW THE VIEWER EYE UP AND DOWN AND LENGTHENS IT.
  •  CREATES MORE VERTICAL LINES AS YOU CAN. 
  • AVOID ROUNDED BROW AS IT MAKES THE FACE MORE ROUND.

FACE TO FACE (tips on making your face appear smaller!)

 FAT FACE? I know I have one! Many big girls have round faces and though we can find many ways to hide our rolls, using shape wear and such, lets face it! There is NO shape wear for our faces! BUT! there are a few different ways that I find works magic when it comes to  slimming our round faces.!

1.  THE BIGGER THE HAIR, THE SMALLER THE HIPS! (learned that one from Wendy Williams) 


- Girls! I don't know any BBW that thinks that big isn't better! I personally know that big hair makes you look smaller! try something real poofy and curly! Like a poof curl! its KNOWN to not only look natural, but feel lightweight. CAUTION!! THIS HAIR WILL MAKE YOU FEEL MORE FABULOUS THAN YOU ALREADY ARE! SO IF YOU ARENT READY TO BE A DIVA, THEN FEEL FREE TO WALK RIGHT PAST THIS PACK OF HAIR IN THE BEAUTY STORE!

2. CONTOURING/HIGHLIGHTING!!! 

- If you LOVE makeup like me then you already know this trick! 
Contouring and Highlighting is one of the EASIEST makeup tricks to hide and shine when it comes to different parts of your face! Contouring, is simply using a foundation or powder darker than your skin and placing it on key places of your face that you don't want to be shown! ..Highlighting, is simply applying a shade lighter than your skin to key spots to allow those spots f your face to be noticed. This trick can make your face appear slimmer and more defined! Also gives the impression of a slimmer nose, and is GREAT for taking pictures!

3. WRAP YOUR FACE.! MY MOMMY DOES IT! 

- Remember that It Works Wrap that I rave aboout? DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN WRAP YOUR FACE? These wraps can not only shrink your fat cells and give you a smaller belly, but it can also reduce your double chin! 

(DONT BELIEVE ME? TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!) 



Adore your shape.! (Shape wear tips)

I know you all are wondering why I'm posting about shape wear if most BBWs already know about shape wear. Well thats just it.! So many of us have issues with shape wear! The weather gets hot and shape wear becomes a BBWs worst  enemy.! You want to show skin and wear clothing that keeps you cool but theres just that one outfit that sits in your closet that you are dying to wear but have yet to put it on. Does this make me look fat.? How many of my rolls are showing.? Questions that we all ask ourselves.!

MY TIPS.! 
1. For ladies who have issues of thighs rubbing together, (ive learned this trick from my best friend) ..Rub your favorite deodorant between your legs on your thighs. It creates a smooth glide when your legs rub, it reduces sweat, and it creates a lasting aroma that will keep you confident all day! 

2. Trying to hide the tummy.? Wrap.! (See my post about a BBWs new best friend http://wrappinkaren.myitworks.com)
And simply try getting a cotton tube top that is a size smaller. It will suck you in and while spandex is a heavier material, cotton will keep you cool and allow air to travel better to your skin. 

3. Many of us get bruised or cut by shape wear.. Clean and Apply olive oil to the cuts or bruises to help healing and try to buy shape wear that is wireless.!
