Whenever you are on a budget, inexpensive laminated furnishings can be a fantastic way to decorate without breaking the bank. Unlike in the past, the quality of today's laminated furnishings is really enhanced. While still not as hard-wearing as genuine wood, the finish materials are certainly better than they used to be The general appearance and shine on the solid color pieces is much nicer. In addition, many are nowadays finished with very thin genuine wood veneers.
Still, these pieces can damage easily in spite of their better appearance When damaged, such pieces can be awfully hard to patch up. You can easily damage a pristine piece while installing a new piece of electronic gear. The edges of the finish might strip up or chip away. An otherwise perfectly functional piece of furniture can be instantly ruined by a deep scratch our gouge compliments of the children or dog. That vivid particle board underneath shows through the previously good-looking finish. You can now observe that cheap looking internal material through the laminate finish, Melamine foil or ABS plastic.
Recently, as I was installing a larger, better TV, I personally chipped my black entertainment center from Target. I loved that piece and it happens to be discontinued, so I was pretty disappointed. So I experimented for a while and came up with this really great process that worked out fantastic. So here is my excellent tip for doing simple repairs on low-priced laminated furniture.
1. Use fingernail polish to carefully fill in the scratch, chip or gouge. Use clear nail polish if possible, or otherwise use a color that is closest to the finish on your furnishings, such as black or white. This will fill in the uneven profile of the material and raise it to the level of the finished laminate. Be gentle with this stage as you don't want to get nail polish all over the nearby finish, just inside the damaged area. Use a finger tip to smooth it out as needed. Wearing gloves for this step is a worthy idea. After it dries you can build up the surface by repeating this step once or twice.
2. Then, you finalize the fix using liquid shoe polish that is close to the color of the furnishings.
3. Lightly rub the area with a clean cloth or paper towel once the shoe polish has been permitted to dry for a little. This will merge the top color into the finish color, and again you can repeat steps 2 and 3 until your piece will look almost good as new.
You may also make use of one of those wood stain touch up pens obtainable at any home center as an alternative to the shoe polish. If you do, just start lightly buffing it before it dries fully because when it dries it will not blend in. Give it a try!
I put some Cole Haan wax polish on my smooth leather shoes. The instructions state to let the polish dry, buff off with a brush, and then bring to a shine with a polishing rag. I cannot buff or polish off the wax polish. It is white and won't come off. I buff until my arm is sore. This isn't normal.
I assume that there is a mild solvent you could recommend that won't damage the shoes. Nail polish remover? Paint thinner?
I would email Cole Haan (www.colehaan.com) and see what they suggest. They know what's in their product better than the rest of us.

Every bride wants their attendants to be looking and feeling their best when their wedding day rolls around. A super popular way brides are ensuring this happens these days is to hold a spa party. The big downside here is that they can be extremely expensive. Consider this - a standard facial and manicure at a salon can run $100 a piece ore more! Not great news for those trying to pull off a wedding on a budget. When you add in the hairstyling, pedicures, massages, and professional make up artists, you are really talking big bucks.
The groom his groomsmen have it much easier as they generally only need to grab a quick haircut. That's an expense normally borne by the groomsmen themselves. But when it comes to the woman, who's paying for the day at the spa really comes down to how adamant the bride is on her attendants having a specific look.
For example, if you want each attendant to have a fancy hairdo and coordinated makeup, you should be the one paying for those services. However, if the spa party is more for the entertainment, each attendant can pay their own way, or decide not to attend if the cost is too high. The bottom line is that if the trip to the spa is sort of a mandatory situation, the bride needs to pay up.
Something else to consider when it comes to a trip to the spa for your bridesmaids - you can consider it as a thank you gift for all of their efforts, helping you get additional value out of your budget.
There are some ways you can help cut down on the expense of hairstyling and makeup costs -
1. Assuming your bridesmaids live near you, why not have practice parties where you can try different hairstyles and makeup?
Take plenty of pictures of these parties, so you'll easily be able to replicate the various hairstyles and makeup on your wedding day. This tip can save you plenty!
2. Schedule a makeup party with a beauty rep.
Folks that sell Avon or Mary Kay are usually more than happy to run a makeup party for you. Even if you don't end up buying anything, the rep has some additional folks to pitch her products to at a later time, but more importantly, you and your party will be able to pick up some worthwhile techniques for you wedding day. As these parties are essential sales presentations, there is no cost for them. Again, saving you plenty.
3. Don't be shy about asking a friend ore relative who's a makeup expert to handle your bridal party's hair and makeup.
No need for this person to be a professional, but if you've know someone who is very good in these areas, ask them to handle this for you as a wedding gift to you. If you are able to work something out like this, there is no need to tip the person doing the job because it's a gift from them to you. However, a thank you gift along with a nice note would indeed be appropriate. Think of the money this person could save you!
If you decide to go all out and schedule a spa party, be sure that you understand all the terms and conditions. A number of spas will include staff gratuities in their pricing, but sales tax is rarely included. It's not uncommon for there to be a 50% non refundable deposit assessed at the time of booking. Also, keep in mind that if you need to have your spa party held at a time outside of their normal business hours, or you ask for it to be held at your home, you'll pay extra.

MAC Cosmetics is one of the leading cosmetic companies in the world. They are a brand name and some of the world's most beautiful women and models have used their products. If you have ever been in a mall, you will see MAC make-up artists doing their thing, showing off their skills on their customers. Now they had to be trained to learn how to blend, and apply people's make-up, matching skin colors and knowing all about the products they carry. To learn all this could take years.
I have researched on the internet and found samples of things on how to put on flawless make-up, but I stumbled across something a month ago called MAC Pro Cosmetic Training Manual, The Deluxe Edition. This product is 600 megabytes full of e-books and video on the exact training books they use to teach all their make-up artists. I could not believe this was out on the internet. It's like finding the recipe to Coca Cola. I used this product on my best friend for her wedding. I've learned so much it's unbelievable. I could not believe how beautiful she looked. Even more, I couldn't believe I was the one who did it! Learning all of this stuff has been fantastic. And I didn't have to leave my house to go to a class to learn any of it either.
I learned it all in the privacy of my own home. The product came with so much stuff. It comes with the Knowledge Training Manual which by itself is 544 pages. There's two versions of this from 2005 to 2008. It also comes with the MAC Cosmetic Lessons for Skin Preparation book, the Master Class Special Effects e-book, and 29 video tutorials. But please look around. Don't take my word for it. I love playing with make-up and the investment I made on this was worth. Getting the inside tips on how to professionally apply make-up, blend eye shadow, use foundation and concealer, learn which brushes to use, and all the other tricks that professional make-up artists use was definitely worth it.
As a professional makeup artist for over 20 years I highly recommend bee luscious cosmetics liquid minerals or their new photo touch mineral foundation with built in brush.

Nowadays, Everyone wants to be a star, and the first step to becoming a star is to look like one. You gotta have that certain confidence without being cocky and most of all you need stunning beauty.
Celebrity makeup artists have been painting faces of stars with MAC cosmetics for many years and will be for years to come. MAC's beauty line has a wide range of true to color eyeshadows, blushes, foundations, mineral makeup, lipsticks and glosses, and I could go on.
This line of cosmetics does not only make you look good, but its also great for promoting skin health. "How in the world could makeup promote skin health?" you may ask. This very unique formula used by MAC not only covers unwanted blemishes and dark spots, but it also protects your very delicate facial skin from the elements, like Sun, Wind, Smoke, Dust and etc. How many cosmetics can you say will do that for you?
Beauty, Skin Health and proven satisfaction. What more could you ask for? MAC cosmetics can be found online at maccosmetics.com
M.A.C. cosmetics has been recognized in Cosmopolitan magazine in its 100 most coveted beauty products as well as winning the Allure's editor's choice award for its lipstick in "Fresh Brew." Posh Beckham created her famous smoky eye look in Elle magazine with M.A.C.'s eye pencil in "Ebony."
While researching MAC cosmetics, I found that many women dislike the fact that when purchasing their makeup its almost a given that the eyeshadow won't be the exact color on your skin that it is in the pack of course, right? Depending on skin tone and melanin in the skin the shadow or blush may appear to be a darker or lighter shade....NOT with MAC cosmetics, the eye shadows and blushes are true to color, meaning that whatever color you see, thats what color it will be. Doesn't matter what skin type you have, the color will not change, making the act of purchasing your makeup way easier and with way less stress of having to return it.
This simple fact makes M.A.C. more profitable to the single woman and more convenient for the working mother!!
So when you want to look like a star and have the confidence of a Robin all you need is M.A.C. cosmetics, and a little extra pep in your step and you will be well on your way to the Starlicious woman you wanna be.
The working woman's must have checklist:
1. HANDBAG and matching shoes or accessories
IN YOUR HANDBAG
1. Cell phone
2. Pen
3. travel lotion
4. pack of gum or mints
5. facial tissue
6. M.A.C COSMETICS.....
Once again, you can always find M.A.C. at your local Sephora stores, Nordstroms, Macy's or very easily online at maccosmetics.com

1.) The best lip color for you will be one or two shades darker than your natural lip color. If you buy your lipstick at a department store, you can apply the lipstick to one lip and see how it looks, but if you like to buy your lipstick from a drugstore like Wal-mart or Walgreens, then you should just trust the shade that is shown on the packaging. You can hold the sample of the shade up to your lips in a mirror and see if it's the right shade.
2.) If you trust the color on the packaging or if your purchase from the department store was rushed, and you get home and you hate the lipstick you purchased. Don't just throw it away! You can actually create a great lip color, by mixing different lipsticks together. You can use a lipstick brush to apply a coat of the one you don't like and then add a coat of a different color that is more accurate. Just blend and mix until you achieve a color that looks great on you.
3.) What about red? If you are going for a more dramatic look and you want that great red lip that everyone is wearing. You can choose a great red, once again, based on your shin tone. If your skin tone is pinkish, you should choose a cherry colored red. If you have olive toned skin, you should choose a brighter, more vibrant red. And if you skin in darker, than deep reds are the ones for you. Another great tip for wearing red lipstick is to go lighter on the rest of your make-up. If your going to wear a dramatic lipstick, then you should draw the attention to your lips and wear lighter less dramatic eye make up and blushes.
4.) You should NEVER match your lipstick to your outfit. A great lipstick that is the perfect shade will look great on you, no matter what clothes you have on.
5.) The size of your lip also matters. If you have larger lips, then muted shades that have tones of brown or purple look best, but if you have been blessed with thinner lips, then you should choose lighter, fresher colors that have tones of pinks or gold.
Every woman's lipstick needs are different, so you should always look at your skin tone, to help guide you when choosing the right shade. A great tip came from the amazing Bobbi Brown,"If I had to teach someone just one thing about lip color it would be this: Find a lipstick that looks good on your face when you are wearing absolutely no makeup." This is a fabulous tip, from a fabulous make-up artist. You should take this advice, and the above great tips with you next time your shopping for that great shade!
How do you figure out what shade of Bobbi Brown makeup to buy?
i'm buying my daughter some makeup and I don't know what shade to buy the concealer. I looked at her current products and it says "Medium" but that's not a shade listed on the Bobbi Brown site. She has tanned skin and not too sure what shade to get.
we don't have a Bobbi Brown counter where I live so I have to buy the stuff online! Help!
Bobbi Brown has a really wide range of colors when it comes to foundation and concealer, so it would be best to find a Bobbi Brown counter near you, take in whatever concealer or foundation she uses and compare it to one that she has already. It might be seem like a bit of a hassle to take it in, but with such a pricey product you might be saving yourself from having to return and re-purchase. Good luck!

Aside from using anti-wrinkle creams, you can also employ the best foundation to hind fine lines and wrinkles. Mineral foundations and concealers are considered the best ones to hide these hardheaded signs of aging. The foundation will also give your skin a smooth radiant appearance other than hiding the unpleasant facial lines. Most of the foundations reflect the light thus the radiant effect. Dub with very fine mineral powder to finish the look.
There are a number of foundation and concealers in the market that you can purchase. But before you buy anything consider the following points so that you can secure the best foundation to hide fines lines on your face.
Skin type
Determine your exact skin type. Oil-free foundations with matte finish are best for oily skin while creamy ones with moisturizers are recommended for dry skin types. Foundations which are "skin balancing" are good for combination types of skin. If you have a sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, oil-free, fragrance-free, and those that indicate "for sensitive skin" are best.
Take the light test
Test the foundation for that light reflecting characteristic. Some may appear light or dark in the container thus it is best to try it before placing the purchase. To test it, you should apply few amount on the jaw line ensuring that there is enough light when you apply the product. Ideally, it should disappear and blend with the skin well even when you are in dark or light areas.
Added benefits
There are many foundations today that offer extra benefits other than hiding those fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Foundations with sun protection factor or SPF are good to use during the day because it protects the skin from the sun's rays. Protection prevents the formation or further appearance of age spots, fine lines and wrinkles. Do not use day foundation at night, because the SPF component can block your pores. Another factor that you should look for in a foundation is its sustainability when exposed to the environment.
Regular foundations are good for indoor use while you need to find water-proof products if you intend to sweat or exposed to outside humidity. Finally, you may need to look for foundations that have moisturizers if you are to use it during cold climates. Cold climates can render your skin very dry thus the need for extra moisture on your face to prevent additional formation of fine lines and wrinkles.

I must say it is amazing. It moisturises yet at the end of the day my skin doesn't look oily/shiny. The coverage is good and the product is very long lasting as you don't need to use alot.

which would look better, applying the powder only to the dark circles, or applying the powder to the entire face
I have never used that brush/brand before, but it looks alright. kabuki brushes are good for applying a heavy amount of power to specific areas, so it should work great for dark circles.
I believe it would look better to apply powder to your entire face, though not as heavily as on the dark circles. you simply have to even out your tone, but not cover up anything else, so go lighter on the rest of the face.
