Puffy Eyes?
Yep, sliced cucumber actually does work a treat when applied to your puffy peepers. It looks gorgeously retro-fab too, if you ask me. Although much less glamourous, sliced potato will also do the job nicely. Who would of thunk it? It actually does pay not to eat your veggies sometimes. Do be sure to keep these nifty numbers up your sleeve (or perhaps in your crisper) for times when you’re fresh out of your preferred potion and need to de-puff in a hurry.

They’re Playing Our Beautiful Song.
“You’ve got to get up every morning with a smile on your face and show the world all the love in your heart. Then people are going to treat you better, you’re gonna find, yes you will, that you’re beautiful as you feel.” -Carole King, “Beautiful”.
Always A Breath Of…
Fresh air we hope. A simple way to avoid bad breath and to ensure that it’s fresh is to make certain that you eat at least 3 proper meals a day. They don’t need to be meals the size to befit The Great Humongous, but 3 balanced meals comprised of healthy gorgeousness are just perfect. Skipping meals allow odour causing bacteria to buildup in your mouth which is a big contributor to bad breath. Brushing your tongue as well as routine brushing and flossing will keep your breath fresh for sure. That way, you can reserve the hotness for your fine self and not your breath!
A Little Dab Will Do Ya!
A little dab of colour that is… For today, why not sneak in a gorgeous bit of colour into your makeup FOTD (face of the day). I’m thinking a little something on the lines of a gorgeous hint of shimmering couverture tight lined along your lower lashes, or an emerald, copper or aubergine perhaps? Even a touch of graphite, violet or deep teal smudged gleefully into your lashline would be beyond divine. Just a hint of colour added to your eyes will make your eyes pop (in the nicest, most lady-like way of course)! Here are a few of the many eyeliner possibilities to assist in graciously emboldening you to make your fabulous foray into the bright side. The options are endless and endlessly beautiful:
Clinique Kohl Shaper For Eyes in Blackened teal
Bobbi Brown Long Wearing Gel Eyeliner in Graphite Shimmer Ink
M.A.C. Eye Kohl in Prunella
i.d bareMinerals Liner Shadow in Green Tea
NARS Eyeliner in Kitty
INIKA Mineral Eye Liner in Chocolate
Stila Smudge Pot in Copper
NYX Eyeliner in Sapphire
CLARINS Kohl Powder Eye Liner in Tropical Violet
Go on, give it a go… you’ll adore it, that I’m sure of. Enjoy!
Tortured Tootsies? Tell Ms. Necessity All About It.
Poor loves. Are your feet feeling “a lot” worse for wear? Long day? Never mind. A good old fashioned foot soak of Epsom Salts and a few drops of quality peppermint essential oil ought to bring your feet back into fine form in a flash. A wonderfully warm foot bath followed by a firm massage of your arches, heels, and several bounces up and down on the balls of your feet and toes are sure to re-invigorate your formally fagged out feet in no time flat. Ahhhh….
Thanks, Ms. Necessity! xo
C. S. I. Of Dye.
Psst. Psst. *whispers* Hey you! Want to get rid of any tell tale signs that mark the signature of a serial at-home hair colourist? Need to get rid of the evidence quick?
Well here’s a tip to rival that of any career colourists:
To get rid of any hair dye on the bathroom sink, tiles or tub, cover the stain with a super special stain removing mixture (SSSRM). To make your own SSSRM just mix up a pasty combination of peroxide and cream of tartar. Cover the stain with the nifty mixture and leave to dry. Once the mixture is dry and looking decidedly powdery, wash it away with cold water. Ta da! What hair dye? Even the most seasoned C.S.I. of dye wouldn’t detect a trace. This is just a little something to keep under your hat should you need it. *wink*
