1, 2, 3: the steps to apply blush with the easiest technique

Skin preparation

Before applying the blush, it is essential to prepare the skin properly. It starts with clean, well-hydrated skin. Apply your foundation and translucent powder to create an even surface.

Find your cheekbones

The next step is to locate your cheekbones. Use your index and middle fingers to feel the top of your cheeks and find the bone that rises below them. It is the area you want to focus on.

Find the perfect blush shade

Selecting the blush shade that best suits your skin tone is essential. For a natural look, choose a color that resembles the natural blush on your cheeks when you blush. Pink and peach shades are popular as they look good on most skin tones.

Apply the technique

Follow the steps of the technique to apply @mandylikes blush: First heat the product in the palm of your hand, heating the product will make it easier to diffuse. Then, start the application just below the cheekbone and gently slide up and towards the temples in an upward and diagonal motion. This will help define the cheekbones naturally.

Your hands are related to your health: the symptoms you should look at

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

We put creams on them, we make them super cute mani, and we use them daily, but perhaps we do not realize that there is much that hands can say about health.

Knowing how to pay attention to the signs and symptoms that manifest in them can help you identify underlying health problems.

These symptoms in your hands can tell you something about your health

Tingling

We all know the tingling sensation when we sleep in an awkward position or sit on our hands for too long, but if you experience regular tingling it doesn’t go away over time. It could be a sign of carpal tunnel syndrome.

According to the Mayo Clinic, carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when a vital nerve (known as the median nerve) in the wrist is compressed, causing tingling, numbness, and pain in the fingers. This will most likely resolve itself, but some people may end up needing surgery.

People with diabetes may also develop nerve damage caused by maintaining high blood sugar levels for a long time. According to Dr. Maria S. Prelipcean, if you have diabetes and notice numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness in your hands or feet, you should visit your doctor. These are early symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. It’s often dangerous when you can’t feel the pain and you develop a foot ulcer.

Nail stains

If you are like us and you like to have your nails always fixed, we recommend you take a break from time to time to check the condition of your natural nails (not to mention that you will save some money).

White spots on the nail are usually a sign of trauma to the nail bed, such as crushing yourself with a door. But if you notice more obvious changes in the color of your nails (if they’re half white and half brown, for example), this could be a sign of kidney disease, cirrhosis, or type 2 diabetes.

Sweaty hands

It’s super normal to sweat your hands when you’re anxious or nervous as wet hands are a bodily response to nerves, exercise, or even low blood sugar. If you feel like your hands are sweating and you’re not nervous or exercising, it could be hyperhidrosis.

However unexplained sweating on the hands (it can also appear on the face, neck, and armpits) can be a symptom of hyperthyroidism.

Why the Full Moon Affects Your Sleep and How to Fight It

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

If it has happened to you that on full moon days, you have a hard time sleeping, you have a little insomnia, and your sleep cycles are a disaster in general, there is a reason behind it. We share with you the causes of this phenomenon and how you can combat it.

The full moon is one of nature’s most beautiful phenomena, but sometimes, it can interfere with your sleep. Among the causes of this are: the luminosity of the moon, changes in the circadian rhythm, and ups and downs in moods and emotions.

Why the Full Moon Affects Your Sleep

If the weeks when there is a full moon you have noticed that your sleep is affected and you have a hard time falling asleep, you are not alone, and there are reasons.

The effects on your sleep can appear up to five days before the astrological phenomenon happens. To begin with, the phases of the moon affect the tide of the oceans, and this directly impacts the energy and moods of humans. You may feel a little more irritable or insecure, and therefore, it may be harder for you to fall asleep.

Then, many times the full moon can bring with it “chaotic energy”, which favors insomnia. These are times when people overthink many things and start analyzing even the smallest details of any situation.

What can I do if the full moon affects my sleep?

Moon Breathing.

Moon breathing is a very popular meditation technique that can help you fall asleep. It may sound a little crazy, but it’s effective.

It consists of covering your right nostril and only breathing through the left. Having a controlled and conscious breath has a positive effect on the nervous system. It sends signals that things are relaxed and peaceful.

To do this, you must sit with your back straight, close your eyes, relax your shoulders, and start with your controlled breathing. Repeat the process for a few minutes until you feel more relaxed.

Turn Heads With This Soft Double Winged Eyeliner Look

Published on by Lee1 Comment

A smoky eye is our foolproof choice when we want a makeup look that accentuates our inner confidence. This soft glam effect strikes the perfect balance between sultry and playful. Recently, a new variation has emerged, adding an unexpected twist to this iconic style… Enter the double-winged eyeliner effect. Although it doesn’t take much more effort than your standard winged liner or smokey eye makeup, the outcome is truly captivating. If you’re eager to make a statement and turn heads wherever you go, perfecting the double-winged eyeliner is a must.

This makeup trend can be recreated with a liquid liner, a pencil, and an eyeshadow combination that is way more delicate and suitable for every day. After applying eyeshadow primer, sweep a matte brown eyeshadow all over the lids, blending up towards your crease. With a waterproof black eyeliner pencil, like SEPHORA COLLECTION Ultimate Gel Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil or KVD Beauty Tattoo Pencil Liner Waterproof Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner, you are going to carefully tightline both your upper and lower waterline. Now, it’s time for the main event. Using an angled brush, dip this into a black eyeshadow and draw a wing. Repeat on the lower lash line so both lines are parallel to one another. 

Et voila! Believe it or not, that’s all there is to the double-winged eyeliner look. It looks significantly more complicated than it is. As a few final touches, you can curl your lashes and coat them with your favorite mascara. Although optional, we highly recommend you finish with a setting spray to ensure the double-winged effect doesn’t smudge throughout the night.
