Do you know which Earrings go best with your Face?

I would think that there is a large amount of women who don't pay attention to what kind of earrings match better to them and just buy whichever type they like. That's totally OK, but if you are wondering what kind of earrings would fit you better, here is a short guide.

If you have a round face like Drew Barrymore, your best option is to use long earrings that makes your face look a little bit longer. See the pictures how she is using long dangle earrings. Also try that they are slim. Another option would be large Hoop Earrings which will also make your cheeks look slimmer.

If your face is more oval shaped avoid using long earrings, try instead filling out your face with shorter earrings. You can use Studs, Chandeliers or Chunky Earrings. An example of a celebrity with oval shaped face is Sarah Jessica Parker.

Women with heart shaped faces look the best with earrings that are small at the top and chunkier at the bottom, like Chandeliers or Hoops with something the bottom. What you need is to add some volume under your cheek bone. Reese Witherspoon is a good example of a heart shapaed face.

Hoop earrings are your best option if you have a square face, also round Studs and Chandelier Earrings. They round shapes will soften your face a little bit. See Demi Moore's picture, she is wearing large hoop earrings which match perfectly to her face.

Remember that your hair style and clothes will also  make a difference, but I think this is a good start. Let me know if you have any questions and Have a Great Weekend!!!

Summer Skin Protection: 5 EasyTips

Part of looking beautiful is not only what you wear, but also how your skin looks. So I looked for a few tips on how to protect your skin during this summer season to look as pretty as always :)

1. Drink plenty of water and avoid excessive alcohol. I know, beach time translates many times also to alcohol time, but the fact is that alcoholic beverages tend to dehydrate the skin. So be nice to your skin and limit your alcohol consumption and instead drink lots of water.

2. Always use Sunscreen. It's very important that you apply your sunscreen 20 minutes before exposing to the sun. Also, if you stay for a long time in the sun remember to re-apply it often. Make sure your sunscreen has a protection of at least 15 SPF and don't use expired products.

3. Use Sunglasses and a Hat. Not all the sunglasses protect your eyes, so make sure you check the label when you buy them to make sure they will protect you. Dark glasses aren't enough, they need to have a special coating, so look for the ANSI label. Also the hat will protect your face, neck and hair from getting damaged and it will add a fancy look to your outfit.

4. Exfoliate regularly. Your skin will get damaged more easily with the sun, sweat and ocean or swimming pool. So it's very recommended that you exfoliate a few times a week to take off the dead skin. You will find plenty of exfoliating products, some exclusively for summer time.

5. Moisturize your Skin and Lips. It's not enough by protecting your skin before and while being in the sun, but also after you exposed to it. Even if you think that you don't need it, your skin will need it. You can switch to a lighter version and use eye serum instead of a heavy cream. And don't forget your lips. Always make sure that it has at least 15 SPF protection. It will keep your lips nice looking and also prevent cancer.
