Spring Makeup and Hair Trends

-

Bright Pastel Eyes~keep it light on the eyelids, and prepare to shine!

Bold Lips~try a deep raspberry, which is so pretty! I usually save this look for nighttime.

Undone Hairstyles~just try not to be too messy. We want to look polished, yet not like we're trying too hard.

Neon Liner~do this on the bottom, but don't look like a clown. Keep it simple.

Deep Side Part~make one of these, then twist, pull back, and pin. Try Goody Colour Collection Metallic Bobby Pins ($5, soap.com) which come in tons of colors that will blend in with your hair!

Striped Nails~try Color Club Nail Art Duo Pens ($4 each, shopcolorclub.com) to get perfect lines and add even more detail.

Liner at the Waterline~try a liner made with non-irritating ingredients, like Physicians Formula Mineral Eyeliner Pencil ($7, drugstore.com), since the makeup will literally be touching your eyes!

Highlight on Inner Eye Corners~try KHROMA Intimate Spotlight, $10, ULTA stores.

Matte Lips~try NYX Matte Lipstick in Indie Flick ($6, nyxcosmetics.com).

Bold Brows~fill in with a pencil, and don't overdo it with the tweezers. Embrace your natural brows.

Liquid Metallic Eyes~I would save this for the evening, and definitely for a fancy occasion.

White Eyeliner~try Wet N Wild Color Icon Liner Pencil ($1, drugstore.com).

Movie Review: Joan of Arc

-
Image
The 1948 version of Joan of Arc with Ingrid Bergman is an excellent movie, and is also pretty family-friendly. I admire Ingrid Bergman's great acting abilities. She can cry on cue, and shows great emotion at every moment she is focused on. Joan is a fourteen year old girl who is hearing voices from Heaven. She is supposed to lead God's Army against Orleans and crown the Dauphin, Charles VII, as King of France. She does succeed in conquering Orleans. When her army prepares to march against Paris, King Charles sells his country to England. Unfortunately, Joan is then arrested, sold, and subjected to horrible trials that are political, though she is accused of being a heretic and a witch. She was only doing the will of God. There were a couple of faults in this movie. For example, Joan's hair should have grown if she was really on trial for five months. Also, some of the Latin words during the coronation ceremony were mispronounced. The film elements were appropriately si...

Ash Wednesday

Try to understand another's point of view. Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in ourselves that we do not even regard the other person's opinions. Effective practice of this technique is called dual perspective (thank you, Interpersonal Communication class!) This means that you fully respect both yours and the other individual's unique viewpoint. In doing so, you can both practice humility and develop your listening skills simultaneously! Saint of the Day Wednesday, February 13, 2013 St. Giles Mary of St. Joseph (1729-1812) In the same year that a power-hungry Napoleon Bonaparte led his army into Russia, Giles Mary of St. Joseph ended a life of humble service to his Franciscan community and to the citizens of Naples. Francesco was born in Taranto to very poor parents. His father’s death left the 18-year-old Francesco to care for the family. Having secured their future, he entered the Friars Minor at Galaton...

Stress: It's Where I'm At

J.M.J. Wow...long time no talk. I've been busy. More accurately, I just haven't made time to write. I think that I'm too busy but the truth is, I didn't feel like writing. I've been so stressed out! I've been worrying about everything. I started taking online classes this semester and let me tell you, the experience hasn't been good. I'm surviving the academic load but I'm thinking that this career idea isn't the one for me. I thought I wanted to be a counseling psychologist but all the stress and anxiety that these courses are bringing me is telling me something else. All of this stress has been leading to a lack of sleep. I don't have to tell you that this makes life a lot harder than normal. Add to that work, my social life, and school, and I'm one weighed down individual. Woe is me, right? I've been praying, trying to ask God why I'm having all these issues. I'd never choose to go through this, but I...
