Walk Tis Way..

No one wants to be mistaken as a street walker on a night out. Try these three make-up renovations to avoid looking trashy..

  • Clumpy lashes is so out-of-date! Keep them neat, long and dark minus the smudges.
  • Make sure skin is not dull and pale, be sure to rub some liquid bronzer on skin for a healthy glow. Same thing goes for the face, keep things dewy wit tinted moisturiser.
  • Forget glossy pale pink lips. Team neat lashes wit darker shades on lips to channel a Hollywood screen goddess.

Make It Fit!

Not quite sure where ur jeans shud fall? Wut about those minis - what's right n what's wayy too short? Take a hint from the fitting tips.
  • Long sleeved tops shud reach juz below ur wrist bone. It shouldn't be too tight or too loose either.
  • A buttoned down shirt shud never gap open at bustline. Make sure it sits nicely or u'll be exposing more than u want to.
  • A pencil skirt shud not bunch up or wrinkle. Do sit down test to find out if it does (sit down for five minutes to see if it's comfortable). U don't want to spend ur time tugging at the skirt the whole day.
  • Too long or too short? Here's a hint : Make sure ur pants fall to the top of ur instep for tat juz right fit.

What's Ur Body Type?

Some of us looks a bit like Calista Flockhart while others may somewhat resemble Sophie Dahl. Welcome to the real world where everyone is different and looks it. But, no matter how small ur chest is or how wide ur hips are, there's a style out there tat can (and will) make the most of wut u've got.

Here are some tips on how to downplay (or up-play) ur body type:

SMALL BUST To appear fuller on top, wear tops wit embroidery details or pockets at the bustline. Layering is another good strategy - try a cute tank under a slim cardigan. Avoid plunging necklines tat reaveal too much of ur collarbone.

LARGE BUST Open necklines like V-necks and U-necks are great for u. Stay away from super-clingy materials, large patterns or prints. Opt for normal to elbow-length sleeves instead of short capped ones.

BROAD SHOULDERS Avoid shoulder pads, boat necks and horizontal stipes. Try V-necks to giv more vertical angles so as to distract attention from ur shoulders.

LARGE TUMMY Stay away from snug waistbands n the 'tucked in' look. Also, avoid straight skirts and materials tat cling over the stomanct. Empire waistlines and graceful A-line skirts are heaps more flattering.

MISS PETITE If u wanna appear 'taller', try short skirts, clam diggers and capri pants. Avoid bold prints, cuffed pants, bulky clothes or anything tat makes the body look 'chopped up'.

AMAZING HEIGHTS If u've got a lot of height on u, the first thing to remember is not to hunch! The best way to take off some height is through a little optical illusion. Go for horizontal stripes, textured fabrics and longer skirts.

Sensitive Skin?!?

More than half of us hav sensitive skin n still don't noe it yet. Find ur skin breaking out in rashes afta trying out tat new moisturiser? Or maybe it became itchy till u can't hardly handle it? Tat's sensitive skin for u. For less harsh symptoms, if ur skin feels itchy, stretched or becomes red and inflamed easily, u hav sensitive skins then. Follow these rules..

RULE 1 Wear sunscreen daily to protect ur skin.

RULE 2 Avoide irritants like fragrance, excessive water, facial steamers, saunas and toners. These will only make u flare up even more.

RULE 3 Keep it to the minimum. Too many products on ur skin can irritate. All u need is a mild cleanser and a moisturiser.

Me, the one who'd been facing tis sensitive skin's problem for years, a dermatologist had advised my to use JOHNSON's BABY SOAP mildness. Well, it works!
