tone and undertone ...



what is tone and undertone ??

the tone is the color which we see it direct with eye for example : red , green , orange , pink etc 

undertone : the Depp color , the color mixed with other color for example : blue white , red blue etc .

how we can know ??

bring the primary color for example choose white and bring white  Cloth and tissue paper .
put them next to each other 


Compare Now ...

when you see it individually you see original white  but when you see them together you can find that one of them is white green for example and the other one pink white .


its the same rule with human skin !
its mean when we see a white person it not necessary at all that his undertone should be cold and white . 


how we can know our under tone ??

* gold and silver test ( warm or cold )
* the eye white 
* skin color near a white paper 
*  Vein color / green and blue ( warm or cold )

note : these tests are not easy and its take time to learn it 







what the benefit from knowing our under tone ??

it help us to chose the perfect foundation , cloth , eye lens ,lipstick ,jewelry  and every thing hahahaha :)


The lie of the Arab Spring!



When did  bloodshed, torture and destruction meant a revolution? When did a mother's grief become an achievement , change and freedom?
Many years and Arabs are busy with wars and killings keeping  doors wide open for others to succeed and develop. While preferring to sing the legacy of parents and grandparents with long forgotten achievements instead of striving to better. Until the false opposition became in their veins giving birth to a an alien project  deceived with resonant words, they came up with so-called the Arab Spring! In reality it was never a spring, where is the spring if our homes have lost thousands of young and wise old men ?? assaulted sanctity of its women, and children killed?





Is this the way to change for better? It's too bitter to know that this is not a new experience, how many of peaceful demonstrations evolved into an angry slogans killings, slaughter and displacements. We stand learning nothing while history repeats itself. Is it our admiration to these catchy words  such as victory, revolution, and freedom is blinding us? Or is it that our blood has become worthless ?! Or are we an extreme optimists ? All religions, especially Islam stresses on importance and great value of human blood and  a drop of a Muslim blood is utterly valuable to God. If these revolutions lead to results that we hope then this misfortune would be more tolerated. However it only lead to loss of lives, things getting worse and bitter while situations remained unchanged. When will the time come for us to rise above these logos and engage with hard work and knowledge instead of wasting our most precious years. Looking up those who participated in the so-called Arab Spring and their situation, It seems like things only worsened exponentially after the revolution.On the other hand Lets step aside and talk about Japan, they made life and success from Hiroshima and Nagasaki massacre,they challenged their opponents  through science,hard work and technology forming a brilliant place in the market. Japan’s opponent were strangers and ours unfortunately are from within. Destruction and loss is a two faced coin and if the revolutions do not do any good but bloodshed then the solution is to be patient, work and a quire different knowledge as long as we have the good fortune of technological development which allows us to claim our rights in  modern , diplomatic way away from any danger or harm.

you just need :

* Vaseline
* Sugar
* olive oil ( not necessary )
* lip gloss ( if you want to add color )
* small container





mix the sugar with the Vaseline and see the result  :)

scrub your lips using Teeth brush on wet lips and when you finish wash your lips and put some lip butter and i recommend ( seba med ) or ( bioderma )

Charlie Habdo and boycotting craze !!



Several years ago, when some Denmark artists/cartoonist offended the noble Prophet Mohammed (pbuh),Muslim groups angrily condemned this act and came up with the decision to boycott Danish products until it shakens their economy .From the outside this is a good thing , but the problem is that Arab Muslims solutions are and were the same since forever, iresult of any Religious symbol attack. How upset they were from America previously, and made a long list of products and goods that must be boycotted, then what?....


Like a teenager’s excitement the anger slipped from their hearts slowly and they returned consuming American products. Simply forgetting how funny they look in the eyes of the West when they are boycotting for one day, and cooperating 10 other. Forgetting that the global economy and world's most goods are from the US. Sadly we did not learn from previous lessons. After the French newspaper’s abuse by Charlie Habdo and after the tragedy portrayed by terrorists who claim Islam and get away with their heinous acts confirmed to France that Charlie’s cartoon was right.And  we dare to announce the boycott !!!


Sorry, but where are rest of solutions?Where is media’s role and how we can benefit from its power to correct the bad images portrayed of the Holy Prophet(pbuh)which were caused by an individual's act or the actions of terrorist groups relate nothing to Islam,or some worm filled historical books saying false shameful stories about the prophet (pbuh).Why not revise these books  ? Why  don't we invite people with our Islam morality learned from our Prophet(pbuh)?Or the concept of our religion does not exceed  short dress and long beards.

Till when boycotting the entire state, when private companies dealers may be dissatisfied with the abuse of one individual who does not represent them.

how to clean your makeup brushes .. 








hi every body ..
how are you all ??

as you know its very important to clean your makeup tools . your brushes , beauty blenders and other Sponges .
this tools quickly gather bacteria that's why its so important to clean them and cover them very well Away from the dust so the skin do not get sensitivity and inflammation .


there are 2 ways for cleaning makeup brushes :

1) fast cleaning >> Between each use
2) deep cleaning >> Once a week if you are a makeup artist and you use the brushes a lot and once a month if you are normal Person which use the brushes for your self only 


  What are the methods of cleaning ?


in the fast cleaning you can use any make up cleaner from any brand and i Recommend mac .


in the deep cleaning i use baby shampoo  So it does not harm the hair brushes + olive oil   then wash it with water and make sure to wash the hair only because if the water reach Inside the brushes it will damage ! 
( please try this way of cleaning , its will return your brushes new )



i post this short video , you can see the way of cleaning very clear.
note : when you buy a new brushes make sure to clean it before using so the hair not fall on your face .
