Look Like Yourself

A secret to looking good.
Bobbi Brown, the woman behind the label of the same name has been around a long time. She recently celebrated her 50th birthday with the realease of her lastest book, Bobbi Brown Living Beauty where she defines and redefines beauty for women in their 40's, 50's, 60's and later. In the "later" part exploring unchartered teritory where women in their 80's can still be beautiful and sexy. Beauty is lifelong. Her messages is that it isn't about looking younger but looking good. She also sells make-up that doesn't take over your face but gently accentuates your feminine beauty.

It is an age old line. Love yourself. Self-respect echos in the way you carry yourself and other humans can smell it on you like a wolf can sense your fear.

Women are different; our tempers, our lives, our complexions, our checkbones and a million other things, so no one makeup trick is going to work for everyone. The one thing we do have in common is that we are women and all women have something beautiful; be it a Marilyn Monroe figure or an enviable personality. Accentuate what you have. And if you use no other make-up at least invest in a good concealer as it has the abbility to make you look like you have had your 8 hours sleep instead of the 5 you managed slouched over your desk!

Whoever you are, be who you are. Learn to appreciate your childbearing hips, your ability to enthral a room with an otherwise boring subject, your unike facial characteristics, your wrinkles wherein you can see your life and appreciate it!
