How To Fake Supermodel Cheekbones

With Spring 2015 New York Fashion Week still fresh in our minds, there has been quite a buzz around the beauty and fashion trends seen on the runways. While these trends vary from season to season, one thing that remains the same is the ever-adored and coveted supermodel cheekbones. So what's the best way to recreate this look even if you aren't a regular on the runway? Here's a simple guide on how tofake it ‘til you make it as the next big thing. 
cheekbones

Step 1: Start with dewy skinMakeup artists are constantly creating dewy-skin looks on models, which gives a healthy glow and sheen. Mix a little illuminating serum with your foundation or BB cream to give your skin instant radiance.
Product Recommendations: Giorgio Armani Fluid Sheer Face Foundation #2, NARS Face Illuminator in "Copacabana", L'Oréal Paris Magic Lumi Highlighter
Step 2: ContourThis is the easiest way to define your cheekbones, but it must be done right. There is nothing worse than contouring that is muddy-looking or is too dark.  Highlighting and contouring can be a tricky undertaking at first, so I’ll let you in on a little trick: Make a fish face in the mirror. Contour where the natural hollow forms in your cheeks. Although the choice between a cream- and powder-based product is totally up to you, I think a natural-looking bronzing powder is a great product to start with. Using light strokes,  apply the product with a blush brush to the hollows of the cheeks until you see definition start to form.
Product Picks: Lancôme Star Bronzer, L'Oréal Paris Glam Bronze Powder Duo
Step 3: Pop the cheeks 
Adding a pop of color to the apples of the cheeks will bring the contouring technique full circle, by allowing your cheekbones to stand out more. I love using cream blush on the apples of the cheek as it blends smoothly and leaves a dewier effect, blending well with the concept of tip #1.

Hi BodyRockers, . Face it you are weird. In today’s world if you train like a warrior, flex your discipline when it comes to your diet, and pass on grazing on donuts in the break room at work chances are you are chided on some level by those around as being weird. Get used to it. Embrace the smell of your sweaty socks. Not many people make a daily practice out of pushing themselves beyond their comfort zones for one workout a day. Not many people step out of what is comfortable for themselves period. This is a niche movement. Not everyone will get why you train this way or why you train at all. Thankfully we don’t need anyones permission or approval, and if we are looking for support we have a place to go where people get it. Being weird requires a good measure of independ

How Air Pollution Is Damaging Your Health

Image
Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, vascular, and neurological impairments. The health effects vary greatly from person to person. High-risk groups such as the elderly, infants, pregnant women, and sufferers from chronic heart and lung diseases are more susceptible to air pollution. Children are at greater risk because they are generally more active outdoors and their lungs are still developing. Exposure to air pollution can cause both acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) health effects.
