If you've ever wanted that sexy, tousled curly hair look, read on. You see, I know you would read on because I don't know one woman who wouldn't dream of having curl-acious, bodacious hair; if you're anything like me, my hair goes from curly to flat in about :30 seconds, flat--literally. I've tried many trusted curling irons and techniques to get those pretty curls, even a slight beachy wave,  but never do they last more than a twirl or two between my fingers. So somewhere in my quest, I've come across Carol's Daughter Hair Milk, a curl booster that promises to tame frizz while defining and enhancing your natural curls. It comes in lotion form with a light, citrusy scent. IT WORKS GREAT! If you apply a small amount on damp hair (a dime sized amount will do) your hair will get the definition and volume you're looking for. This curl booster really delivers. If you have thick hair that can use a bit of moisture, definition, and a boost… try this hair milk product, a perfect treat for your thirsty hair!

Tape has become an essential part of my daily beauty routine, no joke.  Wondering why? Of course you are...who the heck uses tape to apply liquid eyeliner for that perfect cat eye look, or a cool nail design...me, that's who!  And now you will too once you see how you can make tape work for you. Read on for the most amazing tips to get the coolest beauty trends out there, down pat and perfect.

So you want the cool, cat eye trend but aren’t quite the beauty artist? Don’t have a steady hand, no problem! Grab that handy, dandy tape for a quick, easy, and pain free liquid eyeliner application. First, take a piece of tape the same length as your eye lid.  Place the tape on your hand and get rid of it's super stickiness.  Once the tape is not so sticky, place one corner of the tape to the inner corner of your eye lid and slightly slant the tape, securing it on your lid until it reaches the outer corner of your eye lid. Perfect! Now grab your liquid eyeliner and go to town with it. Go crazy, get nuts, because you’ve just created a ‘tape template’ for the perfect cat eye trend.. Once you’ve applied the liquid liner to your lid, close to your lash line, extend it as far or as little as you wish.  Once the liquid eyeliner has dried, slowly peel off the tape and look at that! Perfection!

Dying to know how else you can use tape to create a unique, fun look? Tape takes nail art to a whole new level, precise perfection is totally in! Use tape to create all sorts of great looks, like the perfect French manicure, or even an amazing color block look, or how does an artsy diagonal line look sound to you?

The possibilities are literally endless! Have you tried using tape for a beauty trend lately? PLEASE share with me any beauty tape solutions you have, I’d love to try them out!

So I was recently reading a blog post on Perfume.org about a beauty study done in France, talking about how drinking alcohol or thinking you have had a drink or two can make you 'more beautiful'. While I personally think the total opposite about this study, considering alcoholic drinks just dehydrate you, how can it possibly make one more beautiful? They bring up the whole confidence thing, which I get…but see for yourself in the article here.

So this article got me thinking about some other bizarre beauty beliefs I’m sure you’ve heard over and over again.  Some of the most ridiculous things, like crossing your legs will give you varicose veins, applying Vaseline on your face nightly will prevent wrinkles, rubbing your eyes will create wrinkles, applying cocoa butter or olive oil stops stretch marks, and the list can go on and on for a long while. While sadly, none of the above are true, I don’t think this France beauty study is true one bit either. What are your thoughts on this? What are some funky beauty beliefs you think are actually true?
