Hi,
I'm an 18yr. old whose face needs some slimming and firming. It's not that it's too slacking but it has no contour at all. Can you recommend me some product to solve this problem.
Thank you, |

I cannot really recommend anything that can slim your face, but once i went to a shop, a sales showed me a product called "Mary Cohr Slimlook Extra", she said it's very popular.
But i have never used it  so I don't know if it works or not, maybe you can check it out if you're really interested.  |

Hi Pchi! -- You are 18? (sigh...those were the days!!)....I'll bet you probably have a pretty classically oval face....which you probably aren't loving too much right now given all the focus on really "gaunt" looks (yuck!). I can't think of anything to recommend to you (at your age) that would be worth your time and money. If you want to achieve a more angled look then you can do the following:
Use a neutral blush to lenghthen your face a bit...suck your cheeks in and and sweep from the hairline into your cheek pucker...be careful not to create dreaded "racing stripes" You can also put a bit of contour right on the edge of, and slightly under the jawline (on sides of chin to help "point" your chin a bit..)again, be careful not to overdo it! A great trick that seems stupid but works WONDERS for creating a bit of angularity to your look can be achieved with your mascara...when applying, sweep upward ONLY in the middle to centre of the eyelash line...when you go to put mascara on the outer lashes, sweep to the side, not upwards....you'll help to create more of a catty, angular look to the eye area which helps to take away from the roundness....can also achieve an angular look with your hairstyle...I think this is actually the most effective "cosmetic" for creating an angular look to the face...sharp bangs, blunt edges - sharp angles at the jawline...You can also play with your eyebrows a bit - make sure they are clean and sharp -- but not too sharp or you'll look like a mannequin!
Hope this helps - have fun being 18 and gorgeous!!!

I'm sure you would have said the same sort of thing, Cindi- I just beat you to the board  And all 18 year olds should feel FAB - actually we should all feel fab!! |
