Quick Beauty & Fashion Tips! #1

• When wearing Bright colors, you will of course bring attention & make heads turn. Be sure to use bright colors wisely
• Did you know? V-Necks make your neck look longer
• Brown Eyes? ...wearing dark eye makeup will not help bring your eyes out. try Light and matte, a bit of shimmer helps and will pop those eyes out! ;)
• Blue Eyes or Green? ...now we have to balance this out. Too much dark eye makeup will pop out your eyes, but sometimes will make them seem very small. And Light makeup helps by making your eye b the focus. So it's good to balance colors out.

 "Need-To-Have's" For a Summer Tote Bag: (Summer Bag Essentials)

• You will always need to have a Facial Sunscreen SPF 25+ (unless you want to deal with skin peeling) [Product Recommendations: Elite Facial SPF 30, Anti Aging Facial Sunscreen SPF 15, )
• Sunscreen for your body (Recommended: SPF 35+ , or 50+, or 60+) (Recommendations: Sport UV Defense SPF 45)
• Always keep an aloe bottle in hand, this cools off the skin after being out in the Sun (Or an After Sun Lotion)
• Sunglasses- VERY Important! (TJMaxx, Walmart, Target, Ross, Marshalls, JCP)
• Scrunchies for your hair! (should also be stored in plastic bag)
• Card Case! Why take your "Mama" Wallet when you can carry a simple Card Case to keep your credit cards in or simple cash. -Good Thinking!- You can find Card Cases at stores like: Ross, Marshalls, (those two have TONS of Card Cases for under $10) or JCPenny, MACY's, Wetseal, TJMaxx, Target (keep your card case in the plastic bag, ziploc, etc.)
• Any Camera's or Electronics you bring make sure to keep it in a plastic bag for safety! (ziploc bag, etc.)
• Water Bottle! No time to spend $7 on a Water bottle at the nearest Beach House Restaurant!
• Throw in a Handy Towel
• Make sure to have a Phone Case, that keeps your phone safe and covered! (you can store the phone in a plastic bag- ziploc, etc.)
• Mini Makeup Emergency Kit! Can contain Lip Balm/Lip Gloss (Mylipstuff.com is a great place to find Lip Stick, Balms, Glosses, etc.), A Soft Peachy Pink Blush (Benefit has GREAT Blushes! I would totally recommend!), Mascara, And a Cover-up Face Concealer! (You never know when you might need to cover up a zit or blemish!)
• Always keep Emergency Pads or Tampons in hand! (Cute, slim, and easy Pads & or Tampon holders can be found at the right price at Glitzy-Glam.com)
• Have a Cover-up in hand (any loose tank top, summer dress, for after the beach)
• And Last but not least, throw in a Summer Hat of your choice, but make sure it covers and shades ;)

 Summer Hairstyles! -Need a New Hairstyle?-

Layers w/ Wavy hairstyles are in for Summer! And in my opinion, it is such a GREAT hairstyle, I personally love it, and I use layers (need to re-cut them soon), and wavy A LOT! And Messy Layer (or wavy) hair is the Summer 2010 Hairstyle! ;) (I WILL BE POSTING UP HOW-TO'S ON SUMMER 2010 HAIRSTYLES SOON!) :)

Foot Fashion?! Must Haves-

Wedges are in for this Summer 2010! They go with any type of clothing, whether its a cute white summer dress, or shorts, or eve capri's Wedges go with it! Top Fashion Stores that have Wedges in stock: Forever21, Wetseal, Traffic, MACY, JCPenny (junior section has), Payless ShoeStore, any shoe store you walk in to, you will see Wedges :)

Everyday Minerals Review

Hey Everyone!

Well I've got A LOT of posts ahead of me for this week, a whole bunch of Fashion Updates, Beauty Tips, Top Makeup Products, And some Reviews & Giveaways for all of you! ;)

And Today....there is a "BEAUTIFUL" Review & Giveaway for you all! :) Check it out!

Yep! Everyday Minerals!  Everyday Minerals is a Cosmetic Brand that uses Finest ingredients, which are organic. Everyday Mineral Makeup are free of Nanotechnology, fragrance, animal by products, silicone, carmine, and lake dyes, isn't that great? Plus, not only that, but the company also believes that all Makeup should be affordable to all  women! And that is exactly what they do, they offer high quality mineral makeup at an affordable price to all women! Now that is what first caught my attention ;)

Because I am so into Mineral Makeup, I was super excited to try Everyday Minerals out, so what did I try out?

I got to try out two Everyday Mineral eyeshadow, and two Everyday Mineral Cheek powders! 

Now what can I tell you about the Eyeshadow?

What I love is that it is easy to apply, and easy to remove, no need for extreme eye rubbing to remove this eyeshadow (you can easily remove  it with any makeup removing tissues, or makeup removal eye cream, or simply warm water and a soft towelette) And it is also very well pigmented, and it comes according to the color, meaning it didn't come darker or lighter, it came perfectly! It is easy to store and carry around in your clutch bag. What I loved about it, is that it didn't make a mess! At all! They also offer from Matte to Shimmer Eyeshadow, so be sure to check it out! But this one is really good

Now about the Cheek Powder, I got a Pink Cheek Powder (as you can see in the picture above) and a Tan Colored Cheek Powder. Same, easy to remove and easy to apply (usually I would apply any cheek powder or blushes with a Kabuki or if you have a blush brush that is fine!) It was perfect in color, comes accordingly. Easy to store and carry around, no big mess, actually none at all! Smooth texture, it never caused me any damage to my skin (such as pimples, zits, blackheads, etc.) And it's not that type of Shimmery blush, so I didn't have to worry about looking all shiny! Lol! 

I Definitely had a great experience trying out the Everyday Minerals Cheek Powder and eyeshadow, they rock! I would totally recommend this to ANY Makeup lover who are willing to switch to Mineral Makeup, or any Mineral Makeup Lover!

Hey, Guess what?! There is a Special Giveaway on FashionGalz! Yeah! You can win a special Everyday Minerals makeup product, What is it?! Well if you enter, you can win Everyday Minerals "Smokey Eye Collection!!"

Tips for the perfect Summer Tan!

Hey Everyonnee!

Well since we are in summer, what do we all think when the word "Summer" is brought up? Beaches, and in beaches what do we do? Go to the sea, relax, spend time with family, Getting a Tan.....

Now sometimes we may go get a tan, but sometimes we end up looking cherry red, so I've come up with some helpful tanning tips to keep your skin perfectly glowing and Tan for summer!

• First of all we ALWAYS have to remember to wear sunscreen, those who don't, aren't caring for their skin. By wearing sunscreen you protect your skin from many problems. And you also keep your skin from peeling, so many sure to get a good Sunscreen (at least SPF25 or SPF15 is good)
• If you want a perfect tan, You will have to exfoliate to keep your skin glowing, clean, and new. There are Sugar Scrubs (Such as the new Touch'd Sugar Scrub| 25% promo code: MBFashion | valid through June 7th-18th) Or any good exfoliator that you can find in your nearest drugstore that you feel comfortable using
• Always keep a healthy body moisturizer around, apply some 1-2 times a day (maybe in the afternoon & before you go to bed) There are TONS of great moisturizers out there! But make sure you find those that keep your skin hydrated, that is what you'll need for summer, Try out Skin MD natural, which I do have a bottle and I even bought the sunscreen and it's my favorite moisturizer, the only one I use. But If you know about any moisturizer that hydrates your skin and keeps it in good health, suggest it by commenting below :)But using a good and proper moisturizer can help prevent those "Summer Tan" peelings and off-skin-tone blemishes.
• Yeah I bet you know what I'm going to say...Always drink lots of water ;)
• Selecting your Tanning Lotion: Every person has their own likes and differences when choosing tanning lotions, I mean maybe someone is looking for a different type that you are (that's for sure), but there are also suggestions that you can try out. Such as the Fiji Blend's 2009 Lavish Tanning Lotion, or the True Blue Spa- Strike Gold Self Tanning Lotion with Bronzer, or the L'Oreal Body Expertise Sublime Bronze Luminous Self-Tanning Lotion Instant Action, Also the 2009 California Tanning Lotion Collection, which comes with different "shades" or different "Types" to choose from. But remember, these are the "Top Tanning Lotion Suggestions" It all depends on you, just remember to read the ingredients, make sure it has some Natural Ingredients in there ;)
• Showering with cool/a-bit cold water helps A LOT! It closes the pores, and gives a really healthy glow skin results.
• Remember not to stay under the sun too much, or tan yourself aggressively, as this will cause some serious cherry red skin with the side of blemishes and peelings, ohh...don't forget those really bad sunburns! So remember :) try using this technique: First go 10 minutes facing up, then once those 10 minutes are over, flip to the other side so it will also tan your back.
• A Good walk on the beach (back and forth) helps exercise your legs and abdomens, so it will look more toned and give that nice last touch
• Always have a bottle of Aloe around! This helps soothe the skin!

So by following these basics tips, you are going to have one perfect Glowing Tan! And you remember the basics right?

*Moisturizer

*Sunscreen

*The Right Tanning Lotions

*Keep an aloe bottle around

*Exfoliate and Cleanse

*Cool Water to close pores and Give a glowing healthy skin

*Drink Water

And Take good care of your skin!

There is also....the tanning bed sessions. But that is only if these tips don't work out for you, the 2nd option would be the Tanning Beds, but start out 10-15 minutes, don't go max yet! (6 sessions would do good)

I Hope this Great "Tips for Perfect Tan" Post Helps out! ;) 

Always on the search for the best!

Crazy Dog T-shirts Review

Hey Everyoonnee!!

How was everyone's week? Mine was fine, planning new ideas for FashionGirlz.

I was thinking, Should I put polls in the blog? with interesting questions and your opinions, comment below and tell me what ya think ;)

Anyway Today I have a SUPER DUPER amazing post for all you! I came across this website, and guess what? They have great funny shirts! Fashionable yet Funny! 

So I decided to do a little review for everyone, it's a new addition to the "Check it Out!" 

Here is one of my FAVE picks, and shirts I chose:

{Haha, yeah, my apologies, my camera was apparently "mad" at me, so I couldn't take a pic, so this picture is from the Site}

Anyway let's see what can I say about the T-Shirt??....

First of all, that it is Super nice and comfy, no itchy price tickets, no itchy cloth! It is a smooth, stretchy, and comfortable to wear. 

One of the things that surprised me when I got this T-Shirt was that, it runs very, very well on Sizes. I know my measurements and ordered a Medium and it turned out to be the PERFECT size! [Usually there are OTHER stores that run horribly on sizes, which bothers me, but this one surprised me, and I do recommend you to check it out!]

What Else? Well This shirt has Attitude and it talks, because of course, The Shirt and I combined are ONE TOUGH COOKIE :) What made me smile is that all of the shirts from the Crazy Dog T-shirts Store have little funny sayings, little jokes, ......and by the way, if you are a fan of a movie, and looking for a shirt, try browsing in their movie shirts section! 

They have a very wide selection of shirts, ranging from $5-$29, which I can tell ya this, there's a whole bunch of Crazy Dog shirts in a great price that I don't think you will find anywhere else...

Speaking of very Wide selection of shirts, talk about Family Selections, there's type of shirts for everyone! Shirts for your Husband or Wife, Shirts for Teenage Boys and Girls (funny cute ones for girls, and lots of cool ones for guys, especially if they love Chuck Norris, or funny action movie shirts) There is even a few Dog Clothing, and Dog Shirts for Dog Lovers of course! :)

Well...let's just say, once I started wearing the "One Tough Cookie Shirt" ....there was absolutely no way to get me out of that shirt.

It also makes a great combination with many types of jeans, pants, jean vests, it just does. Like I said "It's Fashionable Yet Funny!"

You There! :) Are you a Go-Green Person? Maybe a Taylor Swift Fan? Do you love NYC? Or being Random?

Yes, Yes....They have a lot, probably every funny shirt you can think of, yep, That's Crazy Dog T-shirts!

There is more info if you wanna Buy It, I would recommend the store and shirts to anyone who loves Fan-Shirts, Vintage, Movie, Random & Funny shirts!

Bringing you the best Reviews and Giveaways as possible! Stay up-to-date for the next post!
