So i'm assuming that all women here are 'keeping their eyes open' for a possible match made in heaven, and that we all are trying to look our best in the process.. well, we can help each other out by confiding any beauty tip that has superbly worked out for us! wink

I'll start off with two of my own, hope many women out there reciprocate and.. LET'S GET PRETTY! cheering

1) To keep my weight down: i don't diet that much, but i do have a golden rule which my nutritionist friend once told me.. never to eat carbs after 5pm.. or 7pm if ur going to have a later night.. the energy will not be used and will store itself in our fat cells whilst we unsuspiciously are getting our required beauty sleep sigh

2) I hate my eyebrows. they just don't grow properly, they sort of grow spariadically and in patches. i used to pluck them 60s style around 10 years ago and have been regretting doing that ever since. Now even if I'm not wearing a full face of make-up, i still use an eyebrow pencil to line the top of the eye-brow, and then fill in the rest with an eye-shadow (that matches my eyebrow colour exactly, obviously). then i use an old dried up mascara brush dipped in a tiny bit of gel.. and presto, beautiful looking brows!

ur turn... wine

When my fingernails begin to look yellowish or are very dirty, I dip them in a bowl of slightly diluted bleach water for 30 seconds and then run a nail file under them.

I smoked and drank heavily for 30 years and never washed off my makeup.

Way to go! I am really just a soap and water kinda gal..but I did try Hydroderm a few months back. Girl..that stuff is wonderful! I mean, you truly can see significant results in just a few days' time. Too bad it's so damned expensive! I really like Burt's Bees products. They're a little expensie, but not too bad. You can find good deals on the Internet sometimes.

to make the eyes look bigger and brighter, try benefit eye pencil either in soft pink or white, and line the inside skin on you eye with it. put it the corner of you eye, and also put on the skin futher up where it comes to be middle.the pink is more subtle, the white will appear them to look moreopen and bigger

also to make eye brows appear more arched use benefit eye brow lift pencil. its white pencil you put under penciled eye brows and it makes them look more arched.

anything else, i know a lot about all of this and skincare. so if you want to know anymore ask me on here or just email me

Drink plenty of water to keep the skin and body hydrated. After taking a soak in a tub, rinse off the residue of the bath water to keep pores cleans. Shower with the warm temperature that you are comfortable to open your pore, rinse off. Lower the temperature to close your pores afterwards and to keep the moisture in the skin.

Always condition hair after shampooing, and the final rinse should be cool water to keep the hair follicles healthy.

Hey there...kind of noticed that "sweetcherry" is a brunette to your very "blond" looks Deb...pink or white on her skin tones would look too "unnatural"..(more like she has pinkeye!!)

anyone can use the white eye pencil inside, infact the darker you are the more her eyes will stand out. my friend was olive skinned and the white pencil inside her eyes looked really pretty and made her eyes appear so much bigger and fuller

also depending on how much pressure you apply you can get a very natural look and build it up to what suits you the best.
