Party Makeup !!


"You should always look plain and pure." they say. Well, its not acceptable for parties, thats for sure ! You need a glamorous look if you wanna stand out in parties. Here are some tips !

Your face should be clean before the makeup, so first of all wash your face well !

Select a matching shade of foundation. Apply a darker shade on the boarder parts of your face.
Apply a powder and then blush your cheecks, adding color gradually. Use some blusher on the sides of the forehead and chin also.

Apply some highlighter on the space beneath the brows. Apply the medium color on the upper eye lid only. Sweep the the darkest shade on the crease, between the 2 shades and blend well. Try to make a mixture of these three colors just like the rainbow

Put a little dark eye shadow also beneath the eyes, touching the lower lash line, with a thin brush. Start from the outer corner and extend it just a little, may be till the middle. See what suits you. This adds more color to your eyes. I think it's better if you choose a color which matches your eyes.

Define your eyes with eye liner. Sweep two coats of mascara. Apply a final coat of mascara is you want. Make your eyelashes curly with a helps of an eyelash curler.

Apply lipstick. Blot with tissue and then reapply for glamorous look.

To make your makeup look more glamorous or crazier, use long and sparkling eye lashes extensions and stick little jewelries on your eye boarders !

Hair Extensions ! for girls only :)

HAIR EXTENSIONS




If you have short hair but you still admire long hairs, extensions are your heroS !

Although it takes some time to get it done, the results are surprisingly successful !

Will Extensions harm my hair?

Absolutely not! Extensions do not harm hair, bad hairdressers harm your hair! Make sure your extension artist has been doing extensions for a good while, uses quality name brand extension supplies, & is a licensed cosmetologist. Otherwise, extensions may cause "alopecia" which means "hair loss".



This brunette made a good decision by having extensions, she looks like a total different person now !







It's hard to say that it's not creepy, actually she's freaking me out but still, her blond hair looks so smooth and straight :)








With her reddish, brownish long hair, she looks so natural as if she's not wearing any extensions and any hairmodel would go with that !








You don't always have to choose your hair's real color for the extensions. As you can see it from here, this woman had both black and red extensions, which looks lot cooler than her previous hair :P

Hairstyles- Long Hair for Woman


I loved Nikki's hairstyle ! She made a pony tail in back and she raised the top of her hair, just for the coolest parties !





This gorgeous desperate housewife put her curly hair together in the back with a hair clip and left no forelock in the front, looks more like a prom hair but is still great !







Long hair is also perfect for topknots ! Eva Mendez made a lose-topknot with forelock and it looks both formal and daily !


This American Idol is a hair idol too for sure! With her curly hair put together in the back and her forelock, she looks amazing !

Party Hairstyles ! -Short Hairstyles for MEN



This post includes only "short" hairstyles for men.

The hairstyle isn't only important for woman, it's also important for men.



I can hear what you're saying : What could possibly look bad on Brad Pitt? :) But still, the way he made his hair looks great. He scattered his flat hair by using a little hair gel, and voila !



This Maroon 5 star Adam Levine layed his hair to right and i find it really cool :P




Leonardo Di Caprio, besides he's an awesome actor, has a good taste of hairstyle. He brushed his hair backwards by using hair gel, nice !

The football player David Beckham is also famous with his looks. A simple haircut and you're ready for the party !

Party Hairstyles ! Short Hair for Woman

Your hairstyle is really important in parties : It has to look good with your clothing, make your face look better, and be in a harmony with the party theme&the ambience.

So, check out my tips about hairstyles and try to use them next time you're invited to a party! :)




This post includes only "short" hairstyles for woman.





Short hairstyles bring more attention to your face.





Flattening your hair really works in short hairstyles and looks really pretty like it does in Kristin Cavallari.







If your hairstyle is really short, you can give some move to your forelock like Rihanna did.





This curly hairstyle absolutely works with heart-shaped faces.





This hairstyle looks gorgeous in Jessica Alba ! She first made her hair wavy then put them together in back.



After flattening your hair, mix up the back and leave the forelock long like Victoria Beckham, stunning !

Party Drinks- Best Cocktails Ever !

I chose the recipes myself and you can trust me in this :P

These recipes include smoothies, frozens and cocktails !



Creamy Mexican






60 gr coffee beans
90 gr irish cream
Vanilla ice-cream (i guess you can add as much as you like)



Fill blender about 3/4 with ice-cream (not solid). Add coffee and irish cream. Blend. Drink. The best Creamy punani drink you've ever drank!




Dirty Banana



30 gr Creme de Banane
30 gr Creme de Cacao
2 scoops of Vanilla ice-cream (i suggest haagen-dazs, algida or ben&jerry's)
6 cubes of ice



Blend the 6 cubes of ice and Vanilla ice-cream in the blender until it gets smooth. Add the creme de banane and cacao and make them smooth too. If you have to, you can add more ice-cream to get the good consistency. I loved it, so hope you like it too !






Frozen Strawberry


240 gr Strawberries in sugar sauce
120 gr Sweet and sour (it's a syrup)


60 gr of milk (it's better if it's cold)



Put about 240 gr of crushable ice cubes in a blender(make sure that it can crush the ice) .Add 240 gr of frozen (no longer frozen) strawberries in sugar sauce. (you can easily find it in a grocery-food section-). Add sweet and sour mix and the milk. You'll understand when the consistency is good. Pour in a large glass and garnish with a strawberry. I think it will be awesome if you put a straw too.




Captain's Colada





1/2 Cup of Ice Crushed
90 gr of Pineapple Juice
30 gr of Cream of Coconut

Ice cream ( my suggestions are strawberry, vanilla, caramel or chocolate ice cream)


In blender, combine the ice-cream, coconut, pineapple juice and ice for 10 to 15 seconds. Pour into a goblet. If you want, you can decorate it with a mini-umbrella. Looks cute and tastes fabulous !!

Music Party Games

Whether you are having a 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s or 90's themed music party, these games are sure to rock!



Charades

Ingredients
Coins
Hat
Index Cards
Marker



To Play
Each player writes down a difficult phrase/name/title/song etc. from the party’s era on an index card. Place the cards into the hat.
Divide everyone into two teams.
Each team chooses a "captain", and the two captains flip a coin to decide who gets to go first.
The first person has to pick a slip of paper from the hat without looking. He then looks at the paper, and gives a signal to his team (signals are determined before the game begins) to reveal what category he will be acting out.
For example: If it is a book title, the first player might put his hands together face up in front of himself, as if he is reading a book. The players on his team will say, "It's a book".
The "actor" puts up the same number of fingers as there are words in the phrase/name/title on the paper. His team will say out loud how many words there are. Then he will again, show a number of fingers for the word he will be acting out first. If he is acting out the name "Daffy Duck", and he wants to act out the 2nd word first, he has to put up 2 fingers. Then for each word he acts out, all he has to do is have his number of fingers represent the word he is acting out.
If the group is having trouble guessing the word, the "actor" can cup his hand behind his ear to convey, "sounds like". Then he can try and act out a word that the word in the phrase sounds like. When the team guesses the "charade", then it is the next team's turn.
SIGNS FOR CHARADES
Syllables - placing the same amount of fingers can show the number of syllables in each word, as there are syllables in each word on your forearm.
Book - Hold both hands in front of you, touching, with palms up.
Movie - Put one hand in front of your eye in a fist (so you can look through it), and turn the other as if you are winding up film.
TV show - Draw an imaginary square in the air (symbolizes a TV).
Play - Place one hand near your heart, and the other out, as if you are showing your team something great.
Song - Open your mouth, and wiggle your finger in front of your mouth (as if sound is coming out).

Bocce

Bocce is a lawn game that closely resembles bowling. It is a fun and relaxing outdoor game.

Ingredients

Bocce set

To Play

Clear out a large level playing area, a regulation bocce court is 76 feet long and 10 feet wide.
Divide players into two teams, with one, two or four players each. Each team receives four balls, divided equally between the team members.
Starting at one end of the court, have a player throw the small ball, or pallina, toward the opposite end of the playing field.
Then that player will throw one of the larger balls, or boccia, toward the pallina trying to get as close to it as possible.
Members from the opposing team will take turns throwing the boccia until one ball is closer to the pallina than the starting team's ball. Then the starting players try to throw closer the pallina.
The players will take turns in this fashion until all boccia have been thrown.
The team with the closest boccia gets one point for each of its boccia that are closer to the pallina than the other team's closest boccia. No points are awarded if the two team's closest boccia are equally close to the pallina.
The team that scored in the last round throws the pallina.
The winning team is the first to score 16 points.
