"IT" is that quality possessed by some which draws all others with its magnetic force. With "IT" you win all men if you are a woman—all women if you are a man. "IT" can be a quality of the mind as well as a physical attraction.
Self-confidence and indifference whether you are pleasing or not—and something in you that gives the impression that you are not at all cold. That's "IT".

JUNGLE RED LIPSTICK OF THE FIFTIES!!



Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in "Love that Red"
Red lipstick, its probably one of the hardest colors to wear for a lot of us! I've been wanting to go a little more retro with my look lately.... I have a vast collection of pinup books, Marilyn books, and Jayne Mansfield books! Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield both look so good in that jungle red lipstick of the fifties! Right? Is it their blonde hair?  Is it the clothes they are wearing?...I need to find a red lipstick that is just my color. I went to the drug store the other day to pick up a couple of things, and I found 2 shades of red lipsticks. They are both Revlon Color Lustrous Lipsticks in "Love That Red", and "Really Red". I put them on and wow! The colors are both so bright on my lips! I tried MACS lipstick in "Kinda Sexy" but that's more of a coral color and I need a good strong shade of  red... Any Suggestions??? I know I'll probably wind up doing a video about jungle red lipstick because its such a tricky color to nail! So feel free to leave some suggestions because I need a second opinion.

Talk to ya soon!

Remember Atomizer Bottles?



When you were a kid remember seeing these perfume bottles on cartoons? I've always wanted one when I was little! I was looking foward to getting one someday but theres none! Everything now is in a glass bottle and sprays. Blah! Wheres the fun in being a girl if ya can't have a cute atomizer bottle to play with?! I love the little pom pom at the end with the fringe.. Thats the best part of the bottle!! The bottle part is cute too, they come in all different shapes, sizes, and colors! The Victorians originally came up with this idea.They were geniuses! They came up with corsets, pipe curls,and atomizer perfume bottles!Make up can too be an accessory..Like these bottles.Buy one of the antique ones and put your favorite fragrance in it, treat your favorite fragrance like royalty. I know I'm getting one..These bottles are too good to pass up! Most of these bottles are antique atomizers.. You can find them on..yep, thats right! Ebay!! They are very good quality though, hardly junk.

Girl with the Golden Curls!



Lets go back, almost 100 years ago! Mary Pickford was known as "The girl with the golden curls"..True story!.. I know, I know...these curls are out of fashion right? I think their one of the most beautiful curl styles and my personal favorite. I've been trying to get these curls with my curling iron but I think you need to have really long hair or hair extensions to get the silent film star look..Or just be really good at doing hair!,lol Then theres the wave curls made famous by Giselle and Jessica Alba, and Gwen Stefani brought the bob back for a little while...Its all the same! In 100 years from now those "sexy waves" will probably be remembered like Mary Pickford's pipe curls... People will be saying "How did they do that?!" Thats what I say every time I look at Mary Pickford or Christine Daae from "Phantom of the Opera" My Favorite play!! Christine looks so pretty with these pipe curls, I'm jealous.. I wish I could look like this before I went to sleep, lol..I always wrap my hair up in either a pony tail or a bun..I want a robe like this too, instead I have my ugly pajama pants and a tank top that looks kind of raggedy..lol.100 years ago women glammed themselves up to go to bed..Not even because they were expecting a guy, they just loved to be feminine 24/7!

Do the Do!! Beauties of the Star Wars Galaxy and thier Whoah! Hair..


I want hair like this!Their the heroes for any of us that has flat hair or frizzy hair. Star Wars hair is the best hair to have and looks good too.When I was little and even now I am still befuddled as to how they get their hair that way! I always wanted braids like princess Leia's and when ever I got done watching Star Wars I always tried to copy my hair just like hers. To bad high school is over for me now..I'd totally do my hair like princess Leia's, with all the long braids for prom or for a formal or something. She is truly the best Galaxy babe of all time!There is a flip side though, Princess Leia also owns the most controversial hair do of all.. Those ear buns!! Some people like them and some people hate them too.I'm going to leave that opinion open for all of you to decide. Are Leia's ear buns hideous or do you think theres possibilities?
