Depression: Road to Recovery

Image
Depression isn't quick or easy, it's far from impossible. Sometimes you just can't beat it. But you do have some control, even if it's serve. The key to that is to start small and build from there. Feeling better and getting over this depression takes time! But you can go there if you make positive choices for yourself each day :) It requires action when you're depressed can be hard. Just thinking about the things you should do to feel better is like going for a walk or spending time with friends, can be exhausting.The things that help the most are the things that are the most difficult to do. There is a difference, however, between something thats difficult and something that's impossible. What I suggest: *Start small and stay focused* You want to start with a few small goals and slowly build up from there. Try taking a short walk around the block or pick the phone to call a friend or a loved one. Or if you feel more comfortable with internet friends...

10 Do's & Don'ts of Looking Your Best

Image
1. DO Ignore Trends (Sometimes): -Natural Makeup is never wrong. A little bit of foundation, natural shadow and some lip gloss is always chic and groomed. For evening, you should dare more! 2. DON'T Under Estimate Ponytails - I  love wearing a striaght forward ponytail anytime. It's easy but very chic, as long as it's not greasy. 3. DO Spritz In Two Places - It feels so sensual to spray fragrance on bare skin. Try a dash of perfume on your cleavage or on your back. 4. DON'T Do That Bleary Eye Thing - Liner can really emphasize the  eyes, and I love that but you have to know how to use it. Too smudged? No, no, no!!! 5. Do Know The Power of Lipstick -For me, lipstick is the hero. The color you choose can change your whole appearance from natural to strong and dramatic. 6. DON'T Shy Away from Retroglam - Actresses from the 50's like Marilyn Monroe, with that look  and that style - their allure in a dream. You couldn't avoid starring at the...

Dear Followers, Viewers & Youtubers

Image
I just watched Jim Chapman's new vlog. The one where he meet the gleam team. In that vlog, he mentioned that youtubers having been feeling pressured about making every single video perfect for us. How many of you have seen that video? Dear haters & viewers, Jim mentioned youtubers have been seeing comments about making their videos more perfect for every one. I completely disagree with that. i think every youtuber should do what they want & not try to meet every standard for everyone who watched their videos, because even trying to make it more perfect for everyone there will always be that one person who might not like it at first. So no matter what they do, it should be on their standards & view ,and not someone else's. We are all human and we are all different. Were different on style, on how we do our hair or makeup or what shoes we wear or even what shape we are in. Its because were human and not a barbie or an alien that are copies of one another. ...

Hairstyles

5 hairstyles that can be done in about 5 minutes! 1. The Agile Braid Pile This chic updo only  looks  complicated. If you can braid and pin, you already know how to do it. how to :   Create a deep side part, and then section your hair into three parts — two in the front, and one in the back. Don't worry about making them even.   Braid the back section of hair, beginning as a French braid for the first few strands and then switching to a regular braid. Braid it upwards towards the sky. It helps to flip upside-down for this step if you're not used to braiding in that direction.  French braid the side section of hair close to your scalp.  Braid the final section of hair.  Take the back braid and pin it into a loose bun shape. If you have super-long hair, you can fold the braid over before pinning it down.  Pin the next braid down across the back of your head.  Complete the look by securing the final braid in the back of your hair. ...
