Beauty Tips

If you have small upper lids, avoid dark eye shadows. It will make your eyes look even smaller. Just a single light eye shadow (try shimmery silver) applied right up to your brows will do the trick. A very thin black line across the base of your upper lashes will further enhance your eyes.

If you have freckled skin, massage your face with olive oil and lemon juice. And use a scrub and gently but firmly clean your face in circular motion. Avoid thick foundations.

French manicure is no longer just plain white. You can now indulge your passion for pastels and paint the tip of your nails in soft pink, lilac and baby blue. Maybe even sheer metallic. As for the rest of the nail, a sheer topcoat in same colour is what recommended.

The shape of the nail should neither be square or oval. The shape that has caught the fantasy of fashion gurus is 'squoval' - longish, with straight edges and rounded tips!

The colour of the millennium for your lips, eyes and nails range from silvery lilac to dark purple, to icy pink to heavy bronze to even shimmery green. In case, if you haven't caught on, the thrust is on 'glitter'.
