Regardless of how much truth it may contain, the purpose is not to show that any type is superior or inferior to any other. Everybody is needed and welcome.

There is a long-standing discussion about whether you can wear black, or any colour that is not in your personal colour palette, as long as it is not near your face.

Product Review : Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick
September 30, 2009

September 2, 2009

Some True Spring Children
July 23, 2009
Pure season kids are the real deal. They haven’t yet learned to temper some of their pure characteristics.
These are the party children. Playful, silly, unpredictable. Would shoot Grandma with the water cannon. As 2 year olds, it takes a lot of extended family to keep them alive.
Makeup Model : Cool Winter
July 15, 2009
The more you work the particular strengths of your season, the more together your look will be. Winter is a season of stark clarity and respecting that will work the feeling best.
