I love this video and wanted to share it with my readers. I always stress the importance of skincare. It was my grandmother who first told me the secret to looking young later in life. She always cleansed her skin and used moisturizer daily. The other advice she gave me that was of great importance as well was never to go to bed with your makeup on. This one act alone will save you years off the face.
I was told that going to bed with makeup on can age the skin by 10 years!!!!!! WOW just think 10 years can be taken off you face just by following simple steps 1. cleanse morning and night. 2. moisturize morning and night.
Today we have so many products to choose from for this so just do your homework and find what works for YOU. My grandmother used Ponds cold cream and vasaline and nothing else. At the age of 104 she had barely any wrinkles at all.
Remember YOU only get ONE face, so treat it well.
At this time of year we justwant to send out a great big HAPPY HOLIDAYS to ALL of our customers and supporters. We pray each and everyone of you have a awesome Christmas and a blessed New Year.
For many of us this has been a year of trying and upheaval but we are still here. We here at DivaGlam are thankful for everything we have endured as a company and grateful that we are still here even though the economic climate has been tough.
So as we take this time to be thankful we just want to share our feelings of thankfulness to all of you and remind you to be thankful also, because no matter what happened this year YOU ARE STILL HERE!

Maybe you will discover something about yourself you did not know or you may think that you liked something but you find you really don't. Enjoy,

Okay so I took the test and the this is what my results were. Although I do agree with some of it I can say that I would never have put myself in the catagory with Madonna by no means. But it was fun anyway. Hope you enjoyed the thought provoking questions. Me
You're Madonna what??????????
1980s style chameleon who pushes the envelope
Unconventional and stylishly confident, you’re a beauty trendsetter whom others are captivated by. Though she’s just as relevant today, Madonna’s flashy rocker-chic look is synonymous with the 80s, and like her, you’re anything but boring. You love to experiment with makeup, hair, and fashion, and everyone knows it. Those around you see you as daring and seductive, but you back up your looks with magnetism, brains, and plenty of ambition. Others can’t wait to see what look you’ll pull off next — and you enjoy keeping them guessing.
Modern-day kindred spirits include Rihanna, Chloë Sevigny, Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry, and Pink.
I came across this article about a particular cosmetics line and the information in it is very valuable for anyone to use. Whether it is this line or DivaGlam, or any other line you want to use.
The thing about women is that we are very diversified when it comes to makeup and I know that, I myself have several items from several other lines that I enjoy and use as well as my own line. So please don't hesitate to try out different lines, what may work for this women and be good for her may not necessarily be good for you. So do try other things, by all means if it works then use it. Enjoy the article. DivaGlam Cosmetics
CREATING INDIVIDUALIZED LOOKS
Avant-garde or glamorous evening looks are created using more contrast in color tones. Colors chosen can contrast dramatically with each other or with personal coloring. At night, try highlights with shimmer and deep contour shadows. For a bold or playful look try using colors from both warm and cool families. One idea combines the golden Sunstone and Tigereye shades on the eyes with blue-basedGarnet applied to the lips.
FACE COLOR
CONCEALER glides on with the flat side and tip of the concealer-face brush or sponge. Apply to discolored areas. Blend away edges.
FOUNDATION can be applied with the concealer-face brush in a stroking motion or use a sponge with a patting motion. Foundation should be applied from the center of the face to the perimeter. This provides coverage where needed and less chance of a "lollipop look" when the face and neck do not match.
BLUSH should look like "pinched cheeks" with color along the cheekbone. This is accomplished with the contour-blush brush in a motion lifting color from under the bone, onto the bone. Work the brush from the mid-ear toward the apple of the cheek. The apple of the cheek is the raised pad of flesh seen when you smile. This lifting style of blush application enhances bone structure by framing the cheekbones.
BRIGHTENER applied with the contour-blush brush adds a glow as desired on the forehead, chin or eyelids. The brightener can be brushed along cheekbones to blend blush application or to use instead of blusher altogether.
BRONZER can be used as a contour to define bone structure or create a sun-kissed glow to the entire face. Contour the cheekbone by applying bronzer with the contour-blush brush horizontally under the cheekbone from mid-ear to the area below the outer brow. Lift the brush upward to blend. Contour the jaw line with bronzer under the jaw-bone. Start behind the ear and work toward the chin. The nose is contoured downward along the sides from the inner brow to the tip of the nose. Be sure to squeeze the brush between the thumb and forefinger to keep the shading narrow along the sides of the nose. Dusting bronzer across nose, cheek-bones, chin and forehead perimeter and into the hairline creates a healthy glow. Note: Blending with foundation before applying can soften the effects of any shade.
EYE COLOR
EYELID BASE fully covers eyelid from lash to brow. Base works to block any natural darkness and provide a surface over which any other shadow will glide. Use both sides of eye shadow brush to apply in "windshield wiper" strokes. (Crystal, Opal, Tigereye, Concealer*)
EYE HIGHLIGHT accents brow arch, but does not cover entire browbone. Apply with pointed tip of eye shadow brush pressing up into brow arch and blending in a one-inch wide arc. Too much light color on the browbone creates a detracting "awning effect." Your eyes should be the true stars of your makeup.
EYELID COLOR covers the area from the lash line to the socket and brow bone. A bright, light shadow (brightener*) can be applied to lid above the iris to accent a deep-set eye. A deep, taupe shade (Geode) can make a large, prominent lid appear less so. Apply with the flat side of the eye shadow brush in a pressing motion across the area holding the point toward the lashes and the handle upward.
EYE CONTOUR defines bone structure. Apply with the tapered side of the eye shadow brush. Stroke on shadow from the outer eye inward along the brow bone to an area above the inner iris. Blend upward and outward so there are no visible lines.
EYE LINER can be defined or smudged but should always connect to the base of the lashes. Special looks can be created by varying color and technique at top and bottom lash lines, but liner color should not be brighter than eye color. A smudged line is created with the tapered side or tip of eye shadow brush. A defined line is created with shadow on the tip of the eyeliner brush. This brush can be used damp or dry. The eyeliner brush is most effective when held like a pencil with the handle pointing downward. The brush can then press "hyphens" of color up into top and bottom lash lines. Work liner from the outer eyeinward, so liner never stops abruptly, but subtly. The more wet the brush, the more defined the effect and intense the color.
EYEBROW COLOR should frame and lift the eye with a groomed arch shape. Work color into the brow hairs or onto the skin with the eyeliner brush in a stroking motion. The color mixture should match or harmonize with hair color tone. (Geode or mixture)
DivaGlam Brush Set
Note: Remember to tap excess color off brushes first to avoid messy shadow and liner application. Never blow excess color off brushes. This may introduce bacteria into your brushes and shadows, causing eye infections. Any shadow that falls onto cheekbone is easily cleaned up using foundation on the concealer-foundation brush and gliding on under the eye and along the top of the cheekbone.
I received this article from one of my fashion sources and I decided to share. The article is about wearing Black fingernail polish, which believe it or not, I do happen to like the look. I am not especially fond of the look in the article but I did see an article with another model and her nails where short and square and she had black nail polish on it look very nice.
Of course I realize that the color black on the nails is not everyones cup of tea, and when we think of black nails we automatically think Goth. But it actually can look very classy and elegant if done correctly and worn at a length that is short. So if you have never tried this look maybe your should, my moto is nothing ventured nothing gained.Enjoy the article.
The truth is that it is a trend that I like, and favors me most of the time, but you have to be careful. It is a look that can be super elegant, but if you're not careful, it could be the opposite.
So in today's tip I will tell you some secrets so that you don't make any mistakes:
Wear your nails short and well filed.
If you have small hands, file your nails long to make the fingers appear finer.
If you are wearing dark nails, make sure that they are always impeccable; there is nothing less glamorous than wearing broken nails, especially if they are dark because it will be more noticeable.
Also dark matte colors, they favor less than the ones that are glossy, (you can apply a gloss layer on top).
Always apply nail protector, because dark colors can get your nails dirty.
If you are using dark nail polish, go changing the style with a lighter varnish, and let your nails rest a couple days per week
Shedding YOUR brown spots
Tuesday January 12, 2010
It is very important for us to keep our skin covered even during the winter months. The more melanin in the skin the less sun damaged but there is sun damage non the less if we don't take of ourselves with sunscreen. For our fairer sisters it is really important to have sunscreen even in our makeup that we wear on our face. DivaGlam Cosmetics Mineral Cosmetics has sunscreen in it and you want to make sure to use extra sunscreen for your skin type.
The following is an article that I came across and I felt that my readers would learn alot of information about sunspots and skin, the treatment and causes of brown spots. Please feel free to comment and let us know what you think of the article and how helpful it was for you. Enjoy
Shedding Your (Brown) Spots in Winter
When your arms and legs are pasty winter white, any brown spots or discolorations really stand out. Luckily, this is also the best time of year to do skin treatments to remove them — because you're more likely to be wearing long sleeves and pants that can hide any crusts and scabs while you heal. Here are someof the ways I treat brown spots in my office:
Liquid nitrogen is a tried-and-true method of removing brown spots and harmless raised growths on the arms and legs. Using a canister that looks like a spray gun, I squirt the cold nitrogen through a nozzle. This freezes the growth or spot but leaves the normal skin around it untouched. It stings for a few seconds, then the treated area bubbles up into a red welt. Within a day or two the welt goes down and turns into a dark scab, similar to the kind you'd get if you burned yourself on a curling iron or stove burner. Scabs on the arms may take a week to fall off; scabs on the legs can take two weeks or longer.
Laser treatments can help fade brown spots. Certain lasers are designed to target the skin's melanin pigment and break it up. In general, smaller, darker spots (especially those on the backs of the hands) respond better than lighter, larger ones because there is more pigment to interact with the laser. Each pulse of the laser feels like a hot pinprick, then the areas turn red for a few days; any crusting that forms falls off in about a week. You'll get the best results if you're not tan.
Chemical peels can help remove sun damage and spots caused by sun exposure. For individual spots, I dab the chemical peel solution onto each spot. They typically crust within a week and may take two weeks to peel off.
Don't forget sunscreen. Even in the middle of winter, harmful UV rays can pass through your car windows and through the glass window of your home or office. If you do undergo any of these skin treatments, be sure to keep the treated areas covered up — freshly lasered or peeled skin can heal even darker than before if it's exposed to the sun while it's healing
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE. I just want to say that during this time of year many of us begin to think about our lives and what we did this year and what we would like to do in the coming New Year, Well I am no different than you.
For Christmas my husband got me the Skechers tennis shoes. When you walk you can lose weight and strenghten back muscles, tone leg calfs, help to correct posture etc. I got them and was happy to do so because like most of you I want to lose a few pounds in the coming year. So with that said I began my journey to health with these shoes.
Shape-Ups are designed to:
•Promote weight loss
•Strengthen the back
•Firm calf and buttock muscles
•Reduce cellulite and tone your thighs
•Increase cardiovascular health
•Improve posture
The first day I wore them I must have worn them for tooooooo long because I started to complain to my daughter that my back was hurting and then she reminded me that you are suppose to break the shoes in and wear them a little at a time until you get use to walking the correct way. Needless to say when I got home I took them off, but I will say that I do feel a difference in my back and stomach muscles, which is great because if you are anything like me I hate to exercise, and will not go to a Gym for all to see me!
This was my second day wearing them and I did not walk as much in them as the first day but I love them.
So if you are out there and thought about getting a pair and you are anything like me and hate the idea of a gym or any kind of scheduled exercise, try these shoes. Of course they will never take the place of regular scheduled exercise but at least as you go about your regular day you can make a difference in your body.
This makeup look is inspired by the 40s and 50s, bringing a very sophisticated and glamorous look. Those decades stood out for their sophisticated image of extreme femininity: immaculate complexions, deep eyes and looks, and very red lips.This look will suit all of you, so read on.
Skin
Complexion is key to this season's makeup. To create a clear complexion we must achieve a uniform surface without weighing the skin down with make up. The face must look as natural as possible.Caribbean tans and bright red cheeks are out. This season brings a healthy look, fresh healthy-looking faces. Choose the foundation closest to your skin color. The market offers a huge variety. Perfect Touch by Yves Saint Laurent is a very light foundation that offers amazing results. Its format, with a brush applicator, keeps you from getting dirty fingers. You won't need to use sponges again. Another option is Perfectly Real makeup in Shade by Clinique. Or don't forget DivaGlam Cosmetics as well.
Eyes
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
Eyes are the focus of makeup - catty looks that create an almond-shape effect.Colors don't follow the trend of the 40s and 50s. You can choose the ones which suit you best, but keep in mind that this season we'll be seeing a lot of dark or navy blue, coffee, ochre, and browns in general. Remember to finish off your eyes' look and almond shape with a touch of black.Eyeliner is a strong trend this year. Automatic Eyeliner by Yves Saint Laurent is a good choice. Its incredible precision will make it your perfect ally for the season.
Add mystery to your eyes
To add mystery and glamour to your eyes, you mustn't forget to apply mascara. Choose the one that suits your style best. Black is an all-time favorite, but dark blue is also a good option this season.
Lips
This season's lips come in strong colors. Red tones are a fury, together with the whole range of plum, raspberry and Bordeaux colors. Don't forget to treat them before applying makeup. Remember that firm healthy skin will really improve the way their look. Don't forget to apply lip liner to keep the lipstick from smearing. This season's tones are dark or very defined, so your stroke must be perfect. The shape you give is up to you but a Cupid's bow will make your lips look very sensual.
Nails
When it comes to nails you must choose between two opposites: either bare or dark colored. The latest trend is wearing light colors, white or nearly transparent on your fingernails and black, red, Bordeaux or another very dark color on your toenails. This will create a contrast, giving you a very modern look. Try it out and you'll see how great it looks.
I hope you put this advice into practice so that this coming season your look will be more glamorous than ever.
