Once you have gained more experience, then don’t hesitate in exploring other makeup items.

45. Makeup for the bride.

Since it is going to be one of your most memorable days, you want everything to be perfect, including your makeup.

Go for a more classic look, so that you would smile every time you check out your photos years after.

46. Makeup colors for your wedding.

To decide on the color of makeup you want to wear on your wedding, one of the things that you need to consider is your wedding theme. However, if you want to achieve that elegant look, stick with colors like pinks, browns, and plums, since they are soft to the eyes. Discuss this with your makeup artist, so that you would look your best on the big day.

Knowing the wedding theme should be one of the first things that you should know before applying makeup on. This would ensure that you would be wearing the right dress and makeup color in attending the event.

48. Wearing makeup.

Whatever kind of occasion your are attending to, you should make sure that you are wearing makeup that you are comfortable with. To achieve that, you should stick to makeup styles that are not too heavy. Aside from that, you should also choose makeup items that are non-allergenic.

49. Wearing makeup at work.

When you wear makeup at work, you should stick to neutral colors, when it comes to your eyes. Earth tone eye shadows would look great with your office attire. For your eyeliner, you can choose one that has a gray or brown color to achieve that beautiful and professional look. 

50. Enhancing the looks of your lips.

When it comes to your lips in reporting to work, you should stick to lighter shades of pink or red. This is because such colors are more professional than the other ones. Aside from that, you should avoid using lipsticks that are frost or have glittery effects. This can also apply to wearing lip gloss. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to Look and Feel Like a Highly Successful Digital Entrepreneur

How to Look and Feel Like a Highly Successful Digital Entrepreneur

There are many reasons that you may have been attracted to the idea of working online. For many, the allure of being completely free to work when and how they please will be enough. For others, it comes down to the feeling of satisfaction that comes from financial independence.

But for some, it’s the allure of being highly successful. For some, it’s the appeal of being successful, accomplished, powerful and wealthy – of being able to live that hedonistic lifestyle of travel, partying and womanizing/manizing (?).

In other words, some of us just want to be highly successful in the traditional sense and to get the feeling of reward and power that comes from that success. Internet marketing makes this possible because it gives us a way to earn money that isn’t ‘limited’ by conventional career trajectories.

You have the prestige that comes from being an entrepreneur, and you have the theoretical ability to learn limitless money. You just need a good idea, a little business savvy and the dedication to put in the work. Do all that and you can quickly become highly successful.

You can rub shoulders with bankers, lawyers and other highly successful individuals, enjoying tailored suits and lavish parties – all without putting in the time at the bottom of the heap.

The Problem

But there’s a problem and that is the fact that many of us don’t know how to live this lifestyle. Many of us want that successful lifestyle but we miss the vital steps. Many of us end up simply working our behinds off at home, not remembering to brush our hair or do our teeth, and then looking completely dishevelled whenever we do leave the house.

Working alone is not highly conducive to presenting ourselves will and what many people don’t appreciate is that running a business is a lot of hard work. Without a boss to motivate you, you can end up falling behind quickly. And then you end up making up for it in the evenings, or by diving straight into work without getting ready for the day first. This is especially true if you are so driven by being ‘successful’ or wealthy. Kind of ironic!

The Solution

The solution is actually to make sure you leave space in your day for looking after yourself and investing in your look. We all know the saying: dress for the job you want. This is just as true when you work for yourself because dressing well will make you feel more successful and effective.

But knowing that and actually acting on it are two very different things. If you want to spend time on yourself, then you need to ensure you give yourself that time – and more importantly that you give yourself that energy. That means clocking off at a set time and dedicating some hours in the day to getting dressed and ready.

Develop a morning routine. This will make it easier to ensure you get dressed and ready the same time every day and will ensure you start your day with the right enthusiasm, mood and footing.
