Como fazer os "fatais" olhos esfumados passo a passo!!!

Gente, achei muito legal esse passo a passo com Kaká Moraes, ensinando a fazer o número de um de todos os tempos, Olhos Esfumados. Para quem não sabe tah aí a super dica e agora é só treinar e arrasar!!!
Antes

Para evitar borrões com as partículas de sombra, aplique pó solto na região.

No pires, água para umedecer o pincel. A sombra é a cremosa da Avon, que também funciona como delineador.

Depois de fazer o traço rente aos cílios, Kaká esfuma com o dedo. "Não podem existir traços definidos".

A parte de baixo também ganha uma pincelada de sombra umedecida. O traço é sempre mais fino no começo do olho, e vai engrossando.

Depois de esfumar, sempre para cima, com a sombra umedecida, é hora de aplicar a sombra preta em pó, para dar acabamento e deixar mais intenso. 

Kaká mostra até onde deve ir o puxado da sombra

Muito rímel. Para não borrar, levante a pálpebra

Lápis preto dentro, tanto em cima quanto embaixo. 

Resultado Final

Who's Your Doggy??

On April 17th, I stopped by The Lot on Washington for the "Who's Your Doggy?" fundraiser, benefiting Texas Hearing and Service Dogs. And boy, what a fundraiser it was! Charity Chicks Houston organized the pup-tacular event filled with specialty cocktails, treats (both and human and canine), and other party favors (my doxie is psychotically obsessed with his new pink frisbee). The icing on the cake: gorgeous, irresistible photos from Monkey Tree Photography. Enjoy...

Tito Ortiz Arrested For Assaulting Jenna Jameson


UFC fighter Tito Ortiz was arrested Monday (April 26) in Huntington Beach, California, accused of felony domestic violence against the mother of his twin boys and the world's most famous adult-film star, Jenna Jameson.
TMZ reported that Jameson had "visible injuries" when police arrived on the scene following an early morning 911 call — allegedly placed by Jameson's father — that sent authorities to investigate a disturbance at the home she shares with boyfriend Ortiz.
The 35-year-old fighter was handcuffed and taken into custody, and there are conflicting reports about whether he has left the Orange County jail. TMZ reported him released late Monday afternoon after posting $50,000 bail with a cashier's check, while MMA Weekly is reporting that the mixed martial artist is still being held in lieu of bail set at $25,000.
Updating from the Ortiz/Jameson residence, TMZ learned that Jameson intends to press charges and had already filed a restraining order. "I am completely shocked," she told the website. "Tito is a loving, sweet man, and I've always supported him through everything. For him to lash out at me like this is shocking, and I feel completely betrayed. Completely betrayed. And I feel bad for my children."
Jameson announced on her Twitter page that she plans to quit the micro-blogging site, writing, "I'm sorry to all of my fans, but I'm going to be quitting Twitter. I cant take any more abuse from ANYONE.. To my sweet fans...thank you."
In a statement to the Los Angeles Times about Ortiz's arrest, UFC spokeswoman Jennifer Wenk said: "We're all aware of it, and any comment would be best handled by the authorities."

I'm not about to weigh in on the he said, she said bickering. But why is she using the children for photo props? Her reaction seems strange. You rarely see photos of the Jesse and Journey but all of a sudden she has them out for the cameras. Now is the time to spend some quiet time at home with the boys instead of posing for the photographers and heading out to Vegas.Because there may be a nasty custody battle coming and possibly some drug testing.

Photo Apps For iPhone


The iPhone is the new toy camera. I love how I can just pop it out and take a picture. And pretty decent ones at that. I have printed photos that I have taken with my iPhone 3GS up to 8x8. And I think I could push that up to 10x10 without much loss of picture quality. Here are some of my favorite photo apps (Most of them give photos a cool retro look.):

Lo-Mob
Lo-Mob has 28 different film effects. Also the app develops all the various effects at once, so the time needed to preview the photos is shorter. It was the first camera app that I bought. $1.99

Film Lab
Film Lab is an improvement on Retro Camera. Film Lab simulates the look of various classic film stocks. And unlike Retro Camera you can save your photos in full resolution, so you can create prints that are larger than wallet sized. I just wish it had the ability to play around with grain size. $0.99

Hipstamatic
I love Hipstamatic so much that I replaced the phone app with it. It is right there next to the Safari and iPod apps. You pay $1.99 for the standard equipment pack which contains 3 lens, 3 films and a flash. Then if you find that you love the app (And you will love it.) you can purchase several expansion packs for $0.99

SwankoLab
The people behind Hipstamatic have come out with a new app, SwankoLab. It aims to recreate the feel of the darkroom. You can even mix up and save your formulas. The $1.99 purchase price  gives you access to 8 "chemicals", and for an additional $1.99 you can purchase a lifetime subscription that gives you 9 more chemicals and free chemicals with each update. It's fun to play with, but I don't find myself going to it as much the other three.

The one problem with a lot of these apps is that they create square photos instead of the standard rectangular ones. I have found a photo lab that creates square photos starting at 5 inches. And I just love the Fuji Pearl paper, it gives the prints a beautiful metallic finish that is hard to recreate on a computer screen. Warning, it can give some Hipstamatic prints a green tint. myPhotopipe.

Botas, saiba usa-las corretamente!!

Ei garotas chics!!! Meu tema é hoje será "Botas", ítem que simplesmente amamos. Mas como somos chics, precisamos saber usa-las, o modelo que fica melhor para nossa estatura. Vamos lah então para esse pequeno tutorial.

Ankle Boot (cano supercurto)
Quem: Todo mundo! “É uma peça que pode ficar boa em mulheres de qualquer altura”, diz o produtor de moda Milton Castanheira.
Como: Com tudo. Se você usar uma meia calça opaca na cor da bota, alonga a silhueta.

Cano médio
Quem: As altas e médias. “Não favorecem as mais baixas pois diminuem um pouco silhueta”, diz Milton. Elas “cortam” a silhueta.
Como: Elas surgiram para serem usadas por baixo da calça, mas as transformações das moda permitiram que você usada junto com saias e vestidos.

Cano longo
Quem : Todo mundo. “Depende da produção, mas as de cano alto pode funcionar com qualquer uma”, diz Milton.
Como: O ideal é que o cano vá um pouco abaixo do joelho e as saias, um pouco acima. A motociclista – a mais clássica de todas é a Fryre – É boa para um estilo moderno. A de montaria é uma outra opção. As go-go boots entraram na moda por causa de Courrèges.

Cano superlongo
São as chamadas botas maxi, ou então over-knees (acima dos joelho). O modelo cuissard é aquele que vai até a coxa.
Quem: Altas e magras. Se este não é o seu caso, esqueça! “As longuíssimas só para as altíssimas. Se uma menina pequena entra numa bota dessas, só sobra o pescoço!”, brinca Castanheira.
Como : Com minis. Inspire-se.

Galochas
Quem : Todo mundo. Afinal, o objetivo é proteger e não ser fashion. “Surgiu para ser prática e útil, então qualquer pessoa pode usar. Acho que fica melhor em mulheres altas e magras. Só acho cafona usar em dias de sol”, opina a estilista Anna Strumpf.
Como: Dá para combinar com quase tudo e continuar elegante.

Openboots 
Quem: “Mulheres de pernas compridas, não muito cheinhas e com tornozelos pouco grossos”, explica a stylist Leticia Toniazzo.
Como: com vestidos e saias mais curtos, sejam eles justos ou não.

Cowboy
Quem: Todo mundo pode usar, mas tem que ficar de olho na altura do cano ”As mais baixinhas só devem usá-la quando tiverem pernas finas e desenhadas”, ensina Chiara Gadaleta, no Tamanho Único.
Como: No estilo boho-chic. Se você for optar por uma, escolha um modelo mais clássico. Quanto mais antiga e com a sua cara, ela fica melhor” diz ela.
