Fashion tips

Barely-There Makeup
Inner glow; To achieve a fresh-faced glow, prep your skin with a thin layer of moisturizer, and tackle any dullness with a skin illuminator.
Flawless base; using a primer before foundation minimize unevenness in skin texture such as large pores and scars. To attain the most natural effect, avoid matte foundations, which tend to look too heavy. Apply foundation under natural light, and only where needed, and be sure to blend thoroughly. Set with a light dusting of loose powder using a powder brush. Your powder of choice should be translucent, not bronze-toned nor shimmery.
Beautiful eyes; Keep your brows soft by using eyebrow powder instead of penciling, and rim eyes with dark brown eyeliner. sweep soft pink shadow across the lid and in the socket crease and smudge for a diffused effect. Apply a slightly darke shadow to your under-eye area, but make it very light. Finish with a coat of lengthening mascara to open up your eyes.
Blushing beauty; most natural blusher shade is one that is a couple of tones darker than your natural skin tone, but rosy blush also give an equally flattering flushed look.
Sheer lips; Prettify your pout with a peach-toned lip color. Directly applying nude lip gloss give you a muddy color.

Fashion Trends For All Body Types
. Two-tone dresses - Simulating a chic blouse-and-skirt combo, the two-tone dress is surprisingly versatile and works for day or night. If you have pear-shaped figure, choose a dress with a lighter bodice and darker skirt to balance your proportions. If you have wide shoulders and slim hips, aim for the reverse: Go dark on top and light at the bottom. Elongate your legs visually by opting for an empire-waist cut.
. Rompers - beach-friendly one-piece romper has emerged as one of summer's hottest fashion trends? It's warm-weather perfect, playful and effortlessly chic, too! Got a boy-like figure? Add curves by choosing a romper with a banded waist or a soft fabric like silk or chiffon. For an office-friendly romper, look for one that ends above the knees -- throw on a cropped blazer or cardigan and complete the look with peep-toe pumps and a belt. For a longer, leaner silhouette, go for a romper with a solid color and pair with wedges or heels.
. Neon - 80s-inspired neon hues have made a huge comeback, so go on and accent your look with these acid brights! Hot pink is gorgeous on darker skin tones, while Eva Mendes' bright yellow flatters fairer complexions. you can keep the bold hue to just the top or bottom or keep them to smaller areas, like shoes /bags.
. Floral prints - Pretty floral prints have such a carefree summery vibe. If you're petite, stay away from large patterns. Go for a soft, floral print frock for the ultimate girly look. To toughen up the feminine look a little, team with leather leggings /acid-washed jeans.
. Tulip Skirts - it takes on the shape of an inverted tulip. This skirt is flattering to almost any body type, and makes a great investment piece -- it can be worn for a night out in town /workplace. add curves because of the extra fabric around the hip area - perfect for straighter body types. If you want to create the illusion of more curves in your hip area, buy a tulip skirt with pleats at the top near the hips. If you are top-heavy, opt for a skirt that flares at the bottom to help balance out the overall shape of your body.
