4 Lip Plumping Secrets Your Plastic Surgeon Doesn’t Want You to Know

Is it possible that there is a way to make your lips plump and beautiful without getting surgery? In fact, yes there is. Modern technology has allowed for great breakthroughs in the medical field to allow people to get big plump lips like Angelina Jolie without surgery. I have researched this fact, and have listed some tips below.

1.) The first tip that I can offer you is to make sure that your lips are hydrated. You never want to get dried out because they will lose their shape. Wearing Gloss helps dramatically to keep lips hydrated throughout the day.

2.) Drink Water. Drinking water has a lot to do with how moist your skin is, especially your lips. make sure that you drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.

3.) Open your mouth as wide as you can when you apply lip gloss. Most people that apply lip gloss keep their mouth closed and they do not realize that they are missing out on more than 2/3 of their lips. another secret when applying lip gloss is to pretty much glob it on before you go to bed, that way it keeps your lips hydrated while you sleep.

4.) Use a Limp plumping gloss. Plumping lip gloss is a gloss with special lip plumping agents in it to not only keep your lips hydrated longer than normal but to actually make your lips bigger. This type of product is very hard to find because the plastic surgery industry does not want it getting out that people don’t need plastic surgery to make their lips big and plump.

In closing, I suggest that anyone looking to improve the size of their lips, follow my 4 steps. start out with steps 1-3, and I promise that once you introduce step 4, you will have lips that can compete with any plastic surgeon out there. If you would like to start step 4 now, and get some lip plumping lip gloss, go over to my blog at getplumplips.blogspot.com, where I review my favorite pluming gloss, and how you can get it for less than a cup of coffee.

The Lasik Eye Surgery Procedure

Lasik eye surgery is an operation that can correct vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. however, Lasik eye surgery is not for those with certain conditions such as glaucoma and cataracts. Those who also don’t like wearing contact lenses or reading/correction glasses can also opt for this operation so that they won’t need to depend on contacts or glasses anymore.

Lasik stands for laser in situ kertomileusis. What the surgeon does in this operation is he/she re-shapes the cornea of the patient using a laser, in order for the patient’s eye vision to become better.

Lasik eye surgery is only allowed for those who are over 18 years old and who want to correct their vision. if there are people who want to have this operation but have suffered from an eye disease, infection or illness in the past year, they will not be allowed to have the Lasik eye surgery. to ensure whether you are a good candidate for this operation or not, the best thing to do is to consult an eye doctor or an ophthalmologist/optometrist.

However, the question on a lot of people’s minds usually is, how to find the right surgeon? Finding the right surgeon is an important thing to do because you will trust this person to work on your eye and of course, you will be hoping for positive results. Lasik eye surgery cost is very expensive nowadays, so, you will also be paying a lot of money. therefore, it is important that you find someone who is experienced, trustworthy and has a good profile. When finding an eye doctor and surgeon, you will need to do thorough research on the internet and perhaps it would also be best to even ask around, maybe your family and friends, for a few references.

What’s frightening about the Lasik eye surgery is that you will be awake the whole time and the entire procedure will take about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the severity of the condition of your eyes, and also if you are having both of your eyes repaired in the same session.

Before the operation begins, your doctor will give you an oral sedative, usually a mild one. In the beginning of the surgery, your surgeon will have you lie down on a reclining chair. then, he/she will apply anesthesia into your eye, in the form of liquid drops, so that you will not feel any pain or discomfort during the entire operation.

Next, a holder will be placed in between your eyelids to prevent your eye from closing and blinking, as blinking can disrupt the process and it may damage your eye even further. Next, you have to make sure that your eye is positioned properly under the laser.

The surgeon will then mark your cornea with an ink marker before creating a flap. The flap will then be made with either a microkeratome or other mini surgical tools. Once the flap is created, it will then be attached to your cornea along with a suction ring which will help in keeping your eye still.

You will then be asked to look at a pinpoint light for a while. this is the laser that sculpts and fixes the cornea of patients. The duration of the surgery actually depends on the level of correction.

Once the operation is done, you will be advised by your doctor to rest for a few days. He/she will also give you the proper medications which you need to take based on your physician’s instructions.

Versace H&M Line Leaves Real Women Out in the Cold

I’m so over the Versace for H&M collection and it hasn’t even hit stores yet. The latest drama is that Versace canceled the photo shoot today that was supposed to picture real New York women modelling clothes from the line. Turns out Donatella didn’t think they represented the brand well enough and shut down the whole thing. because Donatella, queen of plastic surgery, tanning beds, and all things dye jobs, would never approve of anything less than a stick-thin high-fashion model to be seen in her designs.

So what the hell is Versace doing collaborating with for-the-masses store H&M? It makes no sense.

Because I just don’t feel like anyone really thought about it. The whole idea feels like it was conceived in the boiler room after one too many glasses of prosecco. Something feels dirty about it. and now with all this info coming out, it proves that this idea wasn’t really thought through to the end.

It’s obvious Versace wants nothing to do with the masses. They’ve been difficult throughout the process — they’ve mandated that shoppers line up outside the stores in advance and get wristbands before heading inside, 20 at a time. and now that they don’t want “real women” posing in their duds, it’s getting to be obvious that Donatella is reluctant to have her brand be approachable.

Despite all the hype, the drama may turn off some H&M shoppers. No one wants to support a clothing line that thinks we’re not good enough to wear it. you know who’s never had this problem? Target. They collaborate with high-end designers all the time yet manage to portray a welcoming and excitability about the product in a way that H&M and Versace have not been able to. Fashion designers looking to expand their lower price collections should work with Target because H&M is partly responsible for this Versace mess if only because they let it happen.

Versace wants to stay above the fray and look down on us from their towers made of $10,000 dresses and $5,000 pants. They don’t want real women wearing “Versace” tights for $29.99. if they did, maybe they would’ve done things differently with their H&M partnership.

Will you shop Versace for H&M?

Old Lady Katy Perry Is Gorgeous Fun (VIDEO)

When I’m old I want to look just like Katy Perry! That’s right, the puffy, wrinkled skin, the bony, veined hands, the stiff, white, Palm Beach bob, the faded heart tattoo. I don’t believe she’s had a bit of cosmetic surgery done, ever, do you? she really has aged gracefully, even if she’s a bit heavy-handed with the foundation and eyeliner.

Yeah, okay, I’m talking about the OLD Katy in her latest video for “The one that Got Away.” she plays a much older woman reflecting back on a wild, sexy fling with an artist played by Diego Luna. (Watch it below!) Some fans love Katy for her music. Some love her because she’s gorgeous. I love her because she’s willing to get ugly.

We’ve seen Katy do “un-beautiful” before. in the video for “ET,” she wore crazy, bronze reptile contact lenses, unflattering corn rows, and had her whole face painted to look like a freaky alien version of herself floating through space, singing. (Apparently that’s what freaky Katy Perry aliens do in their spare time — float through space, singing.)

And then she donned braces, head-gear, and glasses for “Last Friday Night.” it wasn’t enough that she wears head-gear, either. she gawks with her eyes popped out and speaks in a doofus-y orthodontia-impaired voice. Even when she gets a makeover into pretty party-ready Katy in that video, it’s a nutty, ’80s version of her, and she’s still got the braces.  

You have to be supremely confident to pull these looks off. I can think of a few other pop stars who would never dare be seen looking so goofy and unattractive. she obviously has a great sense of humor. And maybe she also just doesn’t take herself that seriously — but I love that she’ll let herself go like this.

Thanks to makeup artists, stylists, and digital editing, looking gorgeous in your music video is almost becoming almost, well, old. And with Lady Gaga blazing a trail of weirdness, letting your freak flag fly just seems like the thing to do. Get all boo-tay-ful for your video? Eh, not if you want to have some real fun.

Do you love it when Katy dares to ditch the beautiful?

Sweetheart Lanes celebrates birthday with a makeover

As Jane Weitzel recently filed through memories in her brain, a 40-year-old photo of her younger self posing in front of Sweetheart Lanes hung on a corkboard behind her desk.

Removing her teal glasses, she told her story.

She and her husband, Jerry, were hard workers who thought, ‘Why not work for ourselves?’ and they liked bowling.

While on vacation in Loveland in July 1972, the Weitzels closed on the purchase of Sweetheart Lanes from its previous owners and, on Aug. 1, 1972, they marked off their first day as the bowling alley’s new tenants.

“That’s how the building used to look,” Weitzel said, turning around in her chair to point at the old photo.

Where there is now a modern concrete front was once a triangular ski lodge-esque roof sheltering the alley’s front doors. Brick stacked high and low around the building’s exterior, and wood letters spelled “Sweetheart Lanes” across its front.

Inside the alley, invisible to eyes probing the photo, 12 maple and oak lanes stretched toward 12 sets of 10 pins, and bowlers, not computers and cameras, recorded with pens and pencils their spares and strikes.

As if by the magical hands of plastic surgery, all of that had been replaced or updated Thursday when the alley turned 50.

Remodeled in 1990, Sweetheart Lanes’ front entrance has undergone a face-lift with stone accents.

Inside on lanes 1 through 6, the 1982 seats – tan and maroon plastic pieces – carpeting and ball racks looked washed-up next to their gray, black and aluminum counterparts installed on the adjacent 18 lanes.

Last year, LCD TVs stepped in for older-model screens responsible for the display of scores, and next to the alley’s 24th lane rests a $30,000 lane machine that has relieved employees of the relentless task of oiling and cleaning the lanes by hand.

“Oh, I love it,” said Dennie Thompson of the updates to the alley he has bowled in since the mid-’70s. “It really brought it up to date. They almost made a new bowling alley out of it.”

Thompson not only bowls in one of Sweetheart Lanes’ several seniors leagues but also is responsible for the new black vinyl tiling beneath the seating areas and the carpet that will go down in the next couple of days throughout the alley.

Excusing himself to go bowl and knocking out a spare in the process, Thompson returned to explain that through his business, Loveland Carpet and Tile, he was hired to install the flooring when the alley expanded from 12 lanes to 24 in 1993.

Tom Crites, who is married to the Weitzels’ daughter, Jodie, and who worked at Sweetheart Lanes after an award-winning tour on the pro bowling circuit, said he has seen people bowl 364 days of the year at his mother-in-law’s alley.

“There have to have been 20 marriages that came after people met here,” he said, smiling.

Closed only on the Fourth of July, the alley attracts people from “3 to 93,” Crites said, and especially on Thanksgiving or Christmas when family members tire of one another and need to get out of the house.

A few minutes later, as she showed off the alley’s lounge area and Sweetheart Lanes’ 12 original bar stools, Weitzel answered the question: Why bowl?

“If you want a social outlet, this is it,” she said. “Loveland doesn’t have a country club, but it does have a bowling center.”

In 50 years …

Opened its doors July 21, 1961.

Jane and Jerry Weitzel took over the alley on Aug. 1, 1972.

The alley was the first in the state, Jane Weitzel said, to install automatic scorers in 1982. People came from miles around to give it a try, and the alley’s open bowling numbers skyrocketed.

In 1993, the alley expanded from 12 to 24 lanes.

In 2000, synthetic lanes replaced the maple/oak lanes that used to require annual refinishing.

Last summer, old TVs were replaced by LCD screens to keep score.

for its 50th birthday, the alley is being revamped with new chairs in the seating areas, ball racks and tiling and carpeting.

Lasik Dallas Texas

Have you become fed up with your glasses and fumbling around with contacts? Science has discovered a way to correct many vision problems and leave many patients with 20/20 vision. It is called lasik eye surgery. if you live in Texas and are considering corrective eye surgery, then Texas lasik eye surgery will fit your needs perfectly. It will be both convenient and affordable for you and will allow you to stomp on your glasses and lose the contact lenses for good.

You do need to make sure that you are comfortable with the surgeon that you choose. Here are a few basic things to ask of your surgeon before going through with lasik surgery.

First, ask your surgeon if they are board certified. They need to be or you need to find a new surgeon. It is best if they have a peer-approved certification because this is the top certification they can receive for corrective eye surgery. this will ensure that they are a good surgeon and know what they are doing.

Next, find out how many procedures they have done for patients that needed the same surgery you are considering. this will give you an idea of how much experience they have with your specific procedure. The more times they have performed it the better off you will be and the more trust you will have for your surgeon.

Then, find out how many years of experience they have with lasik eye surgery. five year is enough experience and will ensure that they are up to date with all the latest procedures. You need to have confidence in your surgeon and finding one with good experience is a good way to build that confidence.

Last, ask for references. There are always references available for good surgeons and knowing what type of experience others have had is a great way to build trust between you and your surgeon. Either call the references and speak with them, or sometimes the surgeon will have signed testimonials on file.

If you are considering Texas lasik eye surgery, then you are making a decision that can effect your life in a positive manner for many years to come. You can gain 20/20 vision with a good lasik eye surgeon and you will be much happier when you can get rid of your glasses or contact lenses forever.

Fighting Age With Yoga, Creams, Injections, Lasers

I think I look tired. And it’s slowing me down. Not because I actually am tired and moving more slowly, but because I’ve been spending so much time looking in the mirror, studying the fact that I look tired. It was bound to catch up to me eventually. you can’t get away with being over 40 for long before some signs of aging start to creep onto your face. Frankly, I think I’ve been kind of getting away with something up until now. Nothing is sagging (above my collar, at least), and I don’t have serious wrinkles yet (that I can see without my glasses, that is). But one day, not long ago, I realized I look tired. Which has become exhausting.

The first and most obvious attempt to fix this problem was actually getting more rest. unfortunately it didn’t work. I am quite accomplished at sleeping in on weekends and no longer make it through Nightline most nights and yet, I still look tired. Diet and exercise aren’t helping either. I drink water, skip caffeine, eat tons of produce and feel like I spend so much of my life in downward-facing dog, most of the blood in my body should be residing in my face by now. It hasn’t made a damn bit of difference.

Which brought me to the second round of attempting to correct the unfixable: eye creams! I think I have invested in almost every brand out there from the drug store to Sephora to Neiman Marcus. I have roller balls and silver applicators to stimulate the delicate eye area, de-puffing agents, moisturizing deep treatments and rich night repairs. so what if my daughter’s college fund is depleted? I must stop the signs of aging now! Priorities, people. But the eye creams aren’t working either.

Next I looked online, Googling “dark circle treatments” and “under-eye bags” just to see what’s out there. Yes, I realize I have too much time on my hands and a surplus of vanity, but we all have to have a hobby. this search presented me with the true nature of my problem—loss of fat under my eyes due to age, which kind of sucks because there is no cream for that. There are, however, a host of cosmetic options available—for a price, of course. There are all kinds of injections and laser treatments. In fact, there are so many varieties of each I can’t even imagine how one chooses the right procedure. And after reading about every single one of them, I was able to add frown lines to my list of problems.

The choices abound. to plump my under-eye area back to youthfulness, I can have many brands of synthetic fillers injected, which sounds a bit creepy. to keep it natural, I could have my own fat harvested from a location on my body that has an abundance of fat (yeah, no problem there). Then they purify my currently impure fat from one problem area and finally inject it into my new problem area, which sounds taxing and arduous, to say the least. The dilemma: What if the natural or synthetic injection turns out lumpy or distorted? It’s pretty hard to hide that mistake in such a prominent place. And I’m totally phobic of looking like that Cat Lady or one of those women you see on plastic surgery run amok TV shows. I’d feel pretty stupid if I ended up disfigured because I thought I looked a little tired. And what if I spend all that money and the results don’t last? I fear after the investment and research, I’ll end up looking … tired.

Lasers sounded like a good alternative. It seems fairly innocuous with little downtime. I might be temporarily red or blotchy, but my collagen production will be stimulated. except I read the fine print, which says you can’t drink alcohol for two weeks before and after. A month without wine while I’m married and raising a child is not an option. It’s just not going to happen. Not without bloodshed. I can just picture my mal-healed laser results because I went and constricted my blood vessels with sauvignon blanc.

I asked some of my friends—the ones who have previously disclosed that their beauty might not be entirely natural—about their experiences. Is it really a good idea to have anything injected under your eyes, I wanted to know. They gave mixed reviews on that, which leaves me pretty much back where I started. But everyone recommends their doctor, so now I have a stack of names and numbers. What I could really use are the names of the doctors who treated the people I know who have had unfortunate Botox, fillers or surgery, so I can avoid them. But I imagine it’s just bad form to ask.

So the result of my searching for a solution to being tired-looking is that I’m just tired of the whole thing. For now, by default, I’m going to stay looking tired. The new frown lines, however, have got to go.

Is there a way to remove the under eye very dark circles after a nose plastic surgery?

There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.
mydarkcirclesblog.com/2006/11…

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water & stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath & let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K & Biotin. it will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.
