It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius.

Death be not proud

Death be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think’st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure, then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and souls’ delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy, or charms can make us sleep as well,
And better than thy stroke; why swell’st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally,
And death shall be no more; death, thou shalt die.

John Donne (1572-1631)

These Odd Feelings

These Odd Feelings

what started as a game

I knew I could win

beyond my shallow reality

you let me in

I might have denied the lies

I might have cried away the truth

so busy, with myself

but I couldn’t stop thinking about your voice

so confused in my head

I spend my days just rolling in around in my bed

I couldn’t move last night

no strength was in my heart

no strength in sight

the thought of you not there

left my heart feeling so lonely, and bare

I wish we never touched

I wish we never hugged

I wish we never loved

why did you have to show me these emotions?

I’m dying slowly inside, in slow motion.

what use to be funny

now all I can think about is my honey

My love walking through this world unsolemn

yet, I still can’t figure out why I feel so alone?

Eyebrow Brush

Eyebrows can give expression to the face and highlight the eyes, too. The slanted shape is ideal for applying color to the vacant spaces in the eye brow thus creating the illusion of small, slanting eyebrow hairs in between existing ones. Great for giving control to wild eyebrows, it adds a final touch of grooming to a finished look.

Eyebrow brushes are similar to tiny toothbrushes. This eyebrow makeup brush is used to smooth the tiny hairs into shape. This is especially useful before and after plucking to confirm the desired shape. This type of makeup brush has an angled head and can be used to apply a small amount of shadow through the brow hairs too.

For a very dark blush, scrape it up into a fine powder and put it in any container with a lid on it. Mix some powder (anything that best suits you) in it until it is as light as you want it . Brushed upwards, brows look striking in photographs.

Origins make a fabulous eyebrow brush, in a dark green lacquer. Brow Scissors and Brush provide the first steps in total brow grooming. Scissors feature sharp, straight blades that cut right to their safety point with large finger holes for added control.

Blades are specially designed to keep hair from slipping. Brow Brush shapes brows after trimming. The eyebrow should never weigh heavily on the eye, but should arch over it in a gentle curve. The most natural line is the one parallel to the line of your upper eyelid.

Eyebrow Arching

Eyebrow Arching is used for a perfect brow arch and shaped look eybrow. Arching your eyebrows can be done through threading.

Eyebrow arching is now becoming very popular because it is more precise and produces a beautiful uniform shape. All this and it is more gentle than tweezing or waxing. The most prominent features on your face are the eyebrows.

The properly shaped brows do the same for your eyes as the right frame for a beautiful picture. Since our faces differ from one side to the other, a simple way to make sure both sides are balanced before beginning on the other brow is to place the pencil on the outer point of one brow to the inner point of the same brow and the inner point of the opposite brow.

The first step to tweezing is thinning the eyebrow, then slowly begin to define the arch. The arch of the eyebrow should reach the highest point above the middle of your iris. Thin the brow from that point out. The brows are the frame of your eyes.

Eyebrows, the most prominent parts of your face, are arched using different eyebrow arching techniques. The first spot on your face that people look to is the area of the eyes. Using a brow pencil or flat shadow, color in your brows using a color that is a shade darker than your hair color if you have light hair or a shade lighter if you have dark hair. The crest of the arch should always be above the eye socket and just outside of where the pupil is.

The eyebrow itself starts inside the eye socket and continues upward toward the arch. Hold the pencil to the same edge of the nose and connect it with the outer corner of the corresponding eye. If you continue that line, you will see where the brow will end.

Tweeze away any hairs that do not fall into those lines. To see where the brow should begin, using your pencil place it at the edge of your nose and connect this point to the corresponding inside corner of your eye. The line it makes is where the brow should begin.

Eyebrow shaping is no simple task though. Pluck too much and you end up with a perpetual look of surprise or worse, like you have no eyebrows at all. Pluck too little, and you go for paint on eyebrow look. Here are a few tips to make sure your eyebrows come out the perfect shape.

1.Never pluck above the eyebrow. Bleach unruly upper hairs instead.

2. Brush the brows upward before plucking so that you have a clear idea of the lower eyebrow line.

3. Always pluck eyebrow hairs in the direction that the hair grows. This way is less painful and the hairs will regrow flat.

4. Tweeze one hair at a time, starting at the inside (near the nose) and working your way out.

5. Don't over pluck. Take one row of hairs off at a time and examine the eyebrows before deciding if another row needs to come off.

Follow these few simple tips for the eyebrows that will make you stand out.

Eye Makeup Tips

Eyebrows shape the whole makeup. Since eyes is the most important focal point of the face, the eye makeup techniques and choice of colors for eyeshadow should suit the shape and color of your eyes. Eyebrows frame and bring focus to the eyes.

The most important trick to keep in mind is that the light colors highlight the spots while dark colors tame them down. If you have widely spaced eyes, make them look closer by drawing your eyebrows in nearer together, extending eyeliner beyond the inner corners of your eyes and blend in eyeshadow towards the nose.

Anyone over 18 should avoid wearing foundation at the outer corner of the eye where it bunches up into lines: just dust with powder instead. The first step in applying the eyeshadow is to apply a neutral concealer that matches your skin tone on the eyelid and then sweep the lightest shade over the entire area from the lash line to the brow line to create the smudge resistant base.

Apply the medium shade on the lower lid and blend it into your base shade. A third color can also be added along the lash line and outer corner of the eyes as an accent to create the depth in eyes.

Eye shadow is perhaps the most beloved cosmetic of creative makeup artists. Since eyes is the most important focal point of the face, the eye makeup techniques and choice of colors for eyeshadow should suit the shape and color of your eyes.

Whether they are being used to shade or define the eyes, lips or brows, pencils should glide on smoothly, without dragging the skin, If they seem to be too soft and crumbly, place them in the freezer for a few minutes to harden before applying, Ifthey are too hard and pull at the skin, soften the point first by gently running it over the back of the hand.

Eyeshadow should always glide on smoothly, and can be used to subtly change or enhance the shape of the eyes, to add simple definition or to make a strong impact, depending on your choice of colour. It is also useful to disguise the blueness many of us have on the skin on our eyelids.

Eyeliner Application requires a steady hand, Ifyou find it difficult to apply liner with precision, try drawing it on using small feathered stokes and then blend with a fine-tipped brush or the point of a cotton bud To make things easier, put a mirror on a flat surface and then work looking down into it.

Do remember a couple of things. Apply undereye concealer right after you have moisturized your face but before you put on your foundation. And for constant shadows under the eyes, try to get more sleep. Doctors say that the vast majority of the circles people develop under their eyes are from lack of sleep. If your circles are a result of a sinus problem or other medical condition, don't just conceal and ignore them.

For undereye puffiness, use a highlighter or your light foundation underneath your eyes to refract light and make it look as if your "undereye" area is even with your face; again, an optical illusion.

Some women like to dye their eyelashes so they don't have to wear mascara much of the time. It is usually a safe procedure, especially with the vegetable dyes now on the market. But please let a professional do it. You don't want to take a chance on damaging your eyes.

Eye Makeup Tips

Below are some useful Eye Makeup Tips :

• Moisturizing first during your makeup routine will help any foundation and/or concealer blend easier.
• Mixing foundation and moisturizer can make a good tinted moisturizer.
• Curling lashes open up your eyes. Do so by squeezing them with a lash curler from lash line to three fourth way toward tips.
• Apply blush upwards and outwards on the apples of your cheeks, towards the hairline.
• For added natural beauty look, extend a very fine line to the innermost part of the upper lid.
• Apply two coats of mascara, sweeping the wand from roots to ends. Wiggle the wand a little as you move upwards to detach the lashes and make them stand out.
• Line lips with a pale-blue eyeliner pencil; blend color inward with a fingertip. Then brush a shimmery pink lipstick over your entire mouth. The blue edges soften the color, creating a striking, ice-kissed look.
• Before using mascara, remember to curl your lashes with a lash curler to open up your eyes.
• Try applying a dark shadow tone as a liner to accentuate the upper lash line by using the thin edge of a disposable applicator to draw a soft line just above the upper lash.
• Apply two shades, use either medium or dark, and light.
• Select a foundation which is compatible to your skin tone and dab some spots around the center of your face.
• Liners-Normally done in shades of black, grey, brown and sometimes green or blue, liners serve to emphasis the contours of your eyes.
• Eye makeup remover is a special kind of make up remover made to flux budge proof eye cosmetic such as water proof mascara and flase eye lash glue.

Coloring your Eyebrows - Eyebrows Tips

If you feel you need to color your eyebrows because they do not suit the color of your hair or your complexion, it is relatively easy to do at home. Use a facial cream hair lightener, which youI think is the cheapest, safest and easiest way to lighten your eyebrows.

Mix the lightener according to the directions on the box. Stand in front of a mirror, apply the cream gently to your brows and watch it. The color will change from black to brown to red to blond. Wipeit off at the stage you want, before it reaches the color of your hair, because eyebrows should be a shade darker, otherwise the whole world will know you have been coloring them! Remember, coloringdoes dry out your brows, so don't do it too often. And when you take off the lightener, apply moisturizer to your eyebrows and leave it there. I always put moisturizer on my eyebrows just as I do on myface at night. It is a good way to avoid dry, flaky skin in that area.

More Eye Makeup Tips and Tricks

• Eyeliner is meant to add depth to eyes and give definition to lash line. To do so, hold the eyelid skin taut with fingertips of one hand and draw as fine a line as you can very close to the lash line with the other hand. Your hands should be steady for the purpose.
• For the soft smoky look, smudge the edge of the line with the smear end of the eyeliner pencil.
• For added natural beauty look, extend a very fine line to the innermost part of the upper lid.
• Lining the lower lashes add the dramatic effect to your looks. You can do so by adding tiny dots to lash roots and a fine line on the outer half of the lower lash line.
• Liquid eyeliners give more glamorous look but require more skill too.
• Use slate, blue, grey and plum eye shadows for brown eyes, pink, salmon, mauve and brownish pink for green eyes and brown, camel and taupe shades for blue eyes.
• Curling lashes open up your eyes. Do so by squeezing them with a lash curler from lash line to three fourth way toward tips.
• Stick to dark colored mascaras such as navy blue or plum for they look more natural.
• Apply two coats of mascara, sweeping the wand from roots to ends. Wiggle the wand a little as you move upwards to detach the lashes and make them stand out.

Anastasia Eyebrow

Anastasia has now come full circle and recently introduced her new cosmetic line, Anastasia Beverly Hills, which encompasses a full array of color products including an extensive palette for the eyes. It also is one of the most prominent beauty part on the face which can give you good or ugly looks.

Anastasia Soare of Anastasia Beverly Hills is the eyebrow guru. Anastasia is the last word when it comes to the art and architecture of the eyebrow . In humans, it bears a tuft of facial hair. The function of the eyebrows is to prevent debris such as dandruff and other small objects from falling into the eyes, as well as providing sense of something near the eye, such as an insect and prevent water or sweat from dripping into the eye.

Some people, especially women in some cultures, go through the time consuming processof plucking their eyebrows with tweezers to shape them; others remove excess eyebrowhair through hot wax or other techniques, some simply rip the hair out with their fingers. One form of body piercing that is relatively rare pierces the eyebrow;this can create the risk of an infection.

Eyebrow Tweezing

Again, the good thing about going to a professional for a tweezing is that she can shape your eyebrows to flatter and compliment your eyes. From then on, when you pick up tweezers, all you have to dois follow the pattern she has set (you may find that after a few weeks you will want another professional tweeze, but you really can keep it up by yourself).

Remember-tweezers just sit around in makeup drawers and pick up a lot of dust and dirt. So be sure to always dip your tweezers in astringent or in alcohol before using them

When you are ready to tweeze your eyebrows, put some astringent on a cotton ball (again alcohol will do as well, even better) and wipe your eyebrows with it. Now start tweezing in the direction inwhich the hairs grow. As you tweeze try to follow the line that is there-merely clean out the hairs that have grown in. Stop every so often and see how you have done.

Sometimes it is better to stop andwait until the next day to continue. First, this process can hurt and irritate your skin and make your eyes tear, so stopping may appeal to you. Second, it is better to leave some extra hairs than to tweeze too many and have to wait for them to grow back in.

A word about electrolysis. Electrolysis is a permanent solution and you may wantto leave yourself the option of changing the shape of your eyebrows.

Another method that some people like is to remove eyebrow hair by waxing. But this process should be done by a professional. It's safer that way. If you have talked to too many women who have burned their skin with hot wax. So leave that to the pros and shape your eyebrows at home by tweezing.
