Personal transformation: The extreme makeover guide
BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER...OR IS IT?
All of us obsess over our appearance at some point, whether
it be as a teenager worried about her braces making her feel ugly or the wife
who has 4 kid's and has been married for 20 years. But beauty is something that
comes naturally to a woman and we need to focus on utilizing the inner beauty
to enhance the outer beauty.
www.newyorkimageconsultant.com is by far a good start in the
right direction. The Team at New York Image Consultant's are made up of real
people like you and I that are there to help you find your inner beauty without
all the "games" that other competitors play. To be beautiful does not
mean two pounds of lipstick in a deep red color or black "cat eyes" to
achieve the trendy hot look if you are typically the "Girl next
door", rather soft natural tones applied on the cheeks combined with soft
pinks or beige's for eyes and lips might do the trick.
New York Image Consultant's know beauty and they know trend,
they also are experts in "What Not to Wear". From business to the Cat
Walk, they have you covered. "Bring sexy back" with staying true to a
woman's' natural beauty and add a little pizazz with the help from NYIC. You
would think that a magical transformation would be affordable only to the
stars, but not at NYIC, the program "Pays for itself" by giving you
what money can't, confidence and self esteem.
Elena Castaneda is not only a professional and experienced
fashion consultant but she has traveled the world as a "Motivational Speaker"
and has helped thousands of men and women feel better about themselves and
their appearance. Women are not the only one's seeking guidance in the
"Art of looking good", men are flocking to find out the secret too.
Today there is so much emphasis on what's hot and what's not, that it is no
wonder we worry ourselves right into t and gray hair, but it does not have to
be that way at all.
Celebrities have "Their People", Politician's have
theirs, so why can't we have ours? Brittany Spears does not wake up looking
that beautiful by far, she wakes up like you and I, messed up hair and circles
under her eyes just like any other normal woman does. So you ask,"How does
she look so good then?", she has help, she has mentor's, makeup artist's
and hair dresser's, well maybe not hair dresser's now, but you get the point,
she has people guiding her and telling her "What Works".

Personal transformation: The extreme makeover guide
In recent years, extreme makeover T.V. Shows have become
ever popular. These shows have celebrity hosts, and stylists. Have you ever
seen, "What Not to Wear," or "Queer Eye for the Straight
Guy?" Than you know what I mean. Producers are spending millions and millions
of dollars on these games, making it look almost impossible to achieve this
transformation on your own. They are usually catering to Women and older girls
in their late teens, early twenties. What if you don't have millions coming in,
and don't have friends in high places? How in the world can you make an extreme
makeover happen to you? With some time and effort on your part, you can better
yourself too.
In any extreme makeover, there are four main key components,
and these are; fashion, lifestyle, makeup and appearance. I know that sounds
like too much to take in, but hang on, let us just focus on one at a time, and
everything will be obtainable.
The first thing I mentioned was fashion, and no you don't
have to break the bank by keeping up with the latest styles. The easiest way to
do this, is by taking a look at your local news paper's fashion section. You
can also get tons of fashion information by just searching on the Internet. Jot
down colors, shapes, types, fabrics, and anything that you feel is important.
You can go to any shop and find these things. Stay with in the boundaries of
what the fashion experts say, what works well with your body type, what makes
you feel good, and you're in business. Everyone has things about their body
that they don't like. Hide it with fashion, and accentuate what you love, and
everybody will love it too. Find items that will cross over into other seasons,
and all you'll have to do is switch around accessories.
Now, on to lifestyle. It all depends on who you are, and how
you would like the rest of the world to perceive you. Think about how you feel
about yourself, and seek the help you need to change your self-negativity into
self-esteem, self-love and self-worth. For some this can be seeing a therapist,
a plastic surgeon, or a personal trainer.
You need to do what works for you. Eating a healthy diet and
staying in shape can do a lot for a person's well being. Quiting habits like
smoking, and excessive drinking can impact your health and your looks.
Many times that is all you need. If you feel good about
yourself, you will show it on the outside. It sounds cheesy, but put on a happy
face, and your attitude will change. Changing your lifestyle to a healthy, and
happy one, can make all the difference in the world, and your body and face will
show it.
Lipstick, blush, and eye shadows, Oh My! Yes, makeup. You
know, that stuff in the little bag, that you haven't seen in eons.? The icy
blue shadow, and the sticky glossed lips? Those days are over, honey. Time to
wake up to the new you, and this includes make up don'ts and dos. Cosmetics are
just like clothes. One season they are in, the next they are out. Do your
research. Find brands and products that will fit you and your budget.
Get a basic make up brush kit, but put some money into this
set. Good brushes that are well cared for are a must and should last quite a
long time. Talk to a make up consultant at a department store, from a company
you like and can afford. Many times they will give free make up makeovers, and
suggest products that will work well for you. Select basic, timeless products,
that you can wear through many seasons and can apply in a few minutes. Pick out
a few special things to treat yourself, that will go out of style, come spring.
If you want your make up to look great, you need to keep up
with your skin care regimen too. Cleanse and moisturize daily, and ex-foliate a
couple times a week. You too guys, don't think that since you don't wear
makeup, that your skin doesn't matter.
Plucking and waxing at home, with unexperienced hands, can
leave bald spots, burns and ingrown hairs. No one wants to see a
"uni-brow", so go to a salon and have them done right. Have them
teach you how to do it properly at home. Don't think your brows have gone under
the RADAR. Your eyebrows will help to frame the rest of your face.
When it comes to fragrances, what works for one, may not
necessarily work for someone else. Test a little spritz on your pulse points,
like your wrists, don't rub or you may ruin subtle scents. Wait a few minutes
and sniff your wrists. It shouldn't be too strong nor too soft. The perfume or
cologne needs to fit your personality, and your body chemistry.
As it is with fashion, do your research. Find out what is in
season, what is timeless, and find what works for you. Don't go over board.
Keep it simple, and you'll go far.
Now that you have the other three components under control,
lets put them all together and develop your appearance. Your body is toned,
your makeup is flawless, and you clothes are perfect. Whats left? Why, you
fabulous hair, of course. A hair style can make or break your over-all look.
Find a salon and stylist you like, and the you can afford. They can help you
find a style and color that suits you to a tee. Feel free to ask them questions
on techniques and products, so you can achieve the same salon look and feel at
home. Don't go with anything too extravagant, make it easy on yourself, you're
going to have do it in the morning before work, and when you go out on the town
at night.
Accessories will also help you pull your look together.
Research what is in fashion. Choose jewelry, bags, shoes, belt and hats to
complete your new style. You'll want to find staples for your wardrobe as well
as those special items, that will become part of your seasonally rotating
items.
When it comes to an extreme makeover, the key components and
knowledge will help you achieve your goals. Keep it simple, have your seasonal
and staple items,keep it simple and you'll rule the world. You don't need a
million bucks, a game show, or celebrities to show you how its done. You have
the tools now. Welcome to your extreme makeover.
