Hello my tantalizingly talloned troopers. You're hanging in there with me as my polishing powers persevere through this challenge. I'm glad you're still with me because today I had the chance to use something I really like. GLITTER! (Leftover sentiments from pre-school) I admit, I never grew out of the whole sparkly, colorful, fluffy and pink obsession that little girls have. I'll never disown Barbie, and I refuse to give up my love of sequines and rhinestones (I don't actually wear sequines).
So, for today's glitter nail challenge I didn't hold back. I just went with straight glitter. Oooooh sparkles.
Here's what I used.
Here's what I did.
Since glitter is so hard to remove, I started with two coats of a glue-based base coat. After that dried, I painted two coats of Cover Girl's Lav-endure polish. I was disappointed with the consistency of this polish which was streaky and thin. After two coats, there were splotchy streaks that showed some of the nail underneath. I would have needed three or four coats for a perfectly opaque manicure. Even though I have a large selection of Cover Girl polishes, I tend to avoid using them unless I need a specific color, or I'm using it as a base of sorts. In this case, the lavender was only a base for the glitters.

I sponged on two layers and topped it off with a clear quick dry top coat to smooth out, protect and prepare the glitter underneath for the next few

Who was that person that my brother wanted to kill?” she looks at the clock and its 9:15am “Crap I’m late for work!” Maggie got in her car and drove to the hospital for work.

I have examined and analyzed the COVERGIRL™ NatureLuxe advertisement that uses common feminine stereotypes. In this advertisement, COVERGIRL™, which runs in Seventeen magazines, targets women through their choices of colors, fonts, and images used. Certain stereotypes are used; such as, those who are more feminine tend to prefer lighter, happier colors, such as pink. Also, the use of a celebrity, who many young women look to as an icon, assists in the advertisement of the COVERGIRL™ product. COVERGIRL™, more than likely, is able to successfully market their lip-gloss product in the United States by using common gender stereotypes to show femininity and how those, mainly women, should be presented in today’s society.
Since a child, Stargirl had always seemed a bit… off. Her parents seemed to adore her weirdness, they even seemed to encourage it at times. To demonstrate, her parents called her Pocketmouse. They used it to so much that even she started referring to herself as Pocketmouse instead of Susan. But did her parents ever do anything about it? Of course not. She kept the nickname, until she changed it to Mudpie. Then Hullygully. And then Stargirl. But at the time, I knew her as Mudpie.
Feminism is a word that is stock-full of implications, and has many misconceptions. Full Frontal Feminism by Jessica Valenti attempts to give a broad overview of what feminism is, and how you should feel about it (hint: it’s positively). The book is directed primarily towards the younger generation, and talks about a variety of issues relevant to the feminist movement today and in history. The weaknesses of the book include the casual writing, the assumptions Valenti makes, and the contradictory statements that are consistently made. The strengths include providing an entertaining, broad overview of feminism, and discussing ways to contribute to gender equality. Overall, the book is more likely to be a positive experience for high-schoolers that identify as women then college-aged individuals looking for a critical analysis of issues society faces in regards to gender inequality.

Prepare the nails by removing any old nail polish present on the nail. Clean the nails with hand sanitizer.
Once the first coating dries, apply another layer of dye. Repeat this process until you reach your desired color. Using thin coats can make it the application look even. Usually it takes three to six coatings to achieve a darker look.

The world we are living is a fast paced ruled by the media. We are surrounded by images of, perfect bodies, beautiful hair, flawless skin, and ageless faces that flash at us every day. These images are constantly in our minds throughout our lives. Advertisements select audience openly and target them with their product. The advertisement is implied in order to be like the people in the advertisements you must use their product. This approach is not new to this generation, but widely used today. The advertisements grab people attention and persuade them with the appearance of beauty and happy women that looks sophisticated to people eyes.
Elaine Showalter defines Ophelia in many typical ways in her essay "Representing Ophelia: Women, Madness, and the Responsibilities of Feminist Criticism." She discusses her significance in reference to how she reveals Hamlet's characteristics. Showalter touches upon the idea that Ophelia's character is one that is symbolic of the psychiatric theories of Freud. Showalter also attributes the characterization of Ophelia to not only the audience, but also to the actress that plays the part. Never does she suggest that Ophelia could be just that, "Ophelia." Her entire article is devoted to individual interpretation of the play in its entirety, focusing primarily on Ophelia. Showalter presents her own ideas by bringing together the ideas of many others such as Jacques Lacan, Susan Mountfort, Ellen Terry, and more. Showalter provides suffice evidence in addressing each argument, but in doing so, she never takes into account the possibilities of Shakespeare's reasoning.
Before being able to actually apply the make up, the first thing is to get your products and then skin ready for the process. Start off by taking out all of the basic make-up needed :concelor, foundation, powder, make-up sponge, lipstick, lip gloss, eyeliner (liquid or pencil), mascara, hair tie, as well as face wash and face moisturizer. After everything is laid out in front of you, start with washing your face with the face wash, then dry your face off and apply face moisturizer. Afterwards, take the hair tie and pull of you hair back ( if needed use hair clips to pull your bangs back), this will prevent the hair from getting in the way and will allow you to see your entire face when applying foundation and powder. Finally once the moisturizer is fully absorbed and your face is completely dry, you are ready to begin applying the make-up.
First, choose the right eyeshadow colors that are going to bring the natural eye color. For the blue eyes, go with warm colors such as oranges, reds, and golds. Girls with brown eyes can go with blues and violet. For have green eyes, choose from purples, violets, and pinks. For girls with hazel eyes, you have a combination of green and brown, so you can play around with a few colors to bring out either the green or the brown in your hazel eyes depending on the color you like best. The first things to do before applying the eyeshadow is to make sure that the eyelids are primed. The primer will make the eyelids smooth and the oil does not come through it and it will make the eyeshadows in place for a lot longer and will bring out the colors. To apply the primer on the eyelids use your finger to blend it so that it will cover all the eyelids. The second thing is to choose the eyeshadow color that match’s your eye color. Then take a deeper color for the eye crease to give the eye some depth one or two shades darker than the color that you want to apply it on the eyelids. After that, blend all the eyeshadows in a circular motion by using a blender brush, which will make the eyeshadows, blend in a really nice way and it will make the work much easier. Then pick a color and use an angled brush to apply it on the lower lash line that will make the eyes appear larger. Finally, apply mascara on the upper and lower
Hair: To removal glitter from hair, apply hair spray on to a sheet of paper towel until paper towel is damp. Press the wet paper towel onto the glitter so that glitter sticks to the hair spray. The hair spray acts as adhesive for attracting the glitter to the paper towel and away from the hair.
