1. Castor Oil

This product honestly worked wonders for me and hopefully will for you too. Castor oil is found to be very effective in growing and thickening lashes. It is a healing agent that prevents breakage of lashes and triggers lash growth in places that lacked lashes beforehand. Use this tip by first using a clean spoolie (or brush) to apply castor oil to the lashes before bed. Leave the oil on overnight and rinse off in the morning with water. Repeat this routine daily for 2-3 months to see results!

2. Aloe Vera

Along with many other benefits, aloe vera contains nutrients that aid in eyelash growth. Using a clean spoolie, apply fresh aloe vera gel on your eyelashes before bed. Leave the gel on overnight, then rinse off with warm water the next morning. Repeat this routine daily until you’re pleased with your lashes length.

3. Coconut Milk

Coconut milk can be very beneficial if used regularly. This protein rich substance is filled with essential fats that can help you enjoy the thicker and longer lashes you desire. Dip a cotton swab in cold coconut milk and apply it to your eyelashes. Leave the milk on for ten minutes and then rinse off with water. Repeat this routine daily for about 1-2 months for guaranteed results.

4. Lemon Peels In Castor Oil

While castor oil is beneficial on its own, lemon peels act as a hair growth agent. To make the solution you must cut the lemon peel into small pieces and soak in a 1/4 cup of castor oil for 2-3 days. Afterwards, take the remaining amount of oil and apply to your lashes before bed. Rinse the solution off with water the next morning and repeat daily for 2-3 months!

5. Green Tea

Green tea is beneficial in many ways, hair and lash growth being one of them! Green tea contains flavonoids (plant chemicals) that can aid in the growth of your lashes. To use this tip you first must make a cup of unsweetened green tea, wait for it to cool down. Then use a cotton swab to apply the green tea to your eyelashes. Keep the tea on for fifteen minutes and rinse off with cool water. Repeat this daily in order to get the desired results!

NEUTRAL ON NEUTRAL – if you’re new to the whole makeup and outfit matching thing, you can always start small. I used to do mine with neutral colors so I’m assured that whatever look I get is wearable from day to night. A smoky eye is a perfect if you want to match an outfit with warm, earthy colors. Lighter neutrals will look great with a nude lip.

BRIGHT LIPS, SUBTLE PRINTS – thinking of rocking that gorgeous new statement lip color today? Go ahead and swipe it on your lips and while you’re at it, look for an outfit to match that lip color with. Because your lip color will be very loud and bold, it’s important to keep the rest of your outfit simple and minimal. Pick out clothes with pops of color similar to your bold lip and try to steer clear of those that are as bright and loud so you don’t have too much going on.

MATCH LIPS WITH ACCESSORIES – not a fan of wearing prints? Match your bright lips with your accessories instead. This is a great styling trick to do if you just want little pops of color throughout your outfit instead of having a whole lotta loud, bright colors in it. You can also just do lips and shoes or lips and purse if you think doing lips with shoes and purse is too much for the look you have in mind.

TOTAL COMMITMENT – if you think you’re ready to rock this trend then go ahead and go full on! Match your eye makeup with your dress and do your lipstick and blush in either a neutral color or a complimentary color. We are loving this look from Lupita Nyong’o who did a matching blue eye makeup and dress combo and paired it up with bright orange lips.

So, now that you have all these tips, are you ready to sport your matching makeup and outfit look? Tell us how you’re wearing this trend on the comments below. We’d love to know!

Bold Colors

Neutral colors are traditionally trendy, but they can make you look ‘more’ mature, especially if you wear these shades every day. Inject some youth into your casual and work attires by sporting bold colored-pieces. Sometimes, it can be as simple as a vibrant cardigan or a cute printed skirt.

Boat Neck Top / V-Neck Top

Fact: the slowest body part to age is the shoulder. Expose this youthful-looking asset by donning a stylish boat neck top. If you are blessed with a bountiful chest, wear a V-neck top instead. It will show your collarbones and balance your heavy-set top.

Long Cardigan

Look younger as you seek warmth this winter season with a long cardigan. What’s the best length? One that ends at the mid-thigh, experts advise. Ruffled or waterfall sweaters are perfect for more formal events, while boyfriend style cardis are ideal for mall strolls and casual day-outs.

Flat-Front Pants

Maybe you love loose pants because of the comfort and freedom of movement that they bring. Sadly, these comfy trousers can add some ages to your look. Rewind the clock by trading these for flat-front pants. They allow you to shuffle while making you look slimmer along the way.

Colorful Scarf

Are there wrinkles or signs of aging at your neck? Don’t hide these flaws with a turtleneck. Use a colorful scarf instead. Apart from incorporating a pop of color, a scarf can be used in a variety of ways (think headgear or bag accessory.)

Matching Shoes and Pantyhose

A trick to looking taller and younger in the office? Wear pantyhose and shoes that match in color. For example, if you are wearing a nude heel, go with nude pantyhose. For black shoes, black hosiery is the best. This will elongate you – and make your ankles and legs look slimmer.

Here are 5 trendy ways to wear turtlenecks:

Go Light

Heavy-knit turtlenecks are good for the winter. But if they prove to be too bulky for you, go on the lighter side with a lightweight turtleneck. What’s great about this top is that it’s perfect for layering, so you can achieve immense warmth in style.

Go Short

If the traditional turtleneck seems too loose for you, then go on the ‘short’ end of things with a cropped turtleneck. This top is easy to pair with anything, be it leggings, high-waisted pants, even a maxi skirt. If you want, you can wear another top underneath for more torso warmth.

Go Sleeveless

Although it’s freezing cold outside, you can still look suave in a sleeveless turtleneck! This alone is perfect for summer/spring, but you are definitely going to need some layers for this winter season. You can wear it with a coat or a jacket for a stylish office attire. You can also achieve a fresh look by layering it on top of a dress or a long sleeved blouse.

Go Printed

While plain-colored tops are classically stylish, a printed turtleneck can add some spunk to your winter wardrobe. You can easily pair this with plain-colored bottoms. However, you can also go the extra fashion mile by wearing it with printed bottoms (think about print on print.)

Be Dressy

Turtlenecks are not just reserved for tops, they can take the form of dresses as well. If you are not in the mood for mixing and pairing, then what you need to do is choose a turtleneck dress. it looks luxurious by itself, though it would not hurt to layer it with other items of clothing.

• DOWN JACKET – if there’s one thing you shouldn’t forget bringing along your ski trip, it’s a down jacket. Pick a down jacket in a nice and pretty color or an interesting print instead of going for just the generic black ones. This will make you stand out once you’re out there having fun skiing.
  

• MIRRORED SKI GOGGLES – I know you love your mirrored aviator sunnies but they’re not exactly ski-friendly so go get yourself a pair of cool mirrored ski goggles instead. Goggles are mandatory so you can have your eyes protected and the mirrored lenses will give your look a cool and edgy vibe.
  
• WATERPROOF GLOVES – it’s important that you get gloves that are waterproof if you plan on going skiing. Otherwise, you’ll end up with soaked gloves and cold hands. Also try to look for a pair with hanging clips on them so you can clip them on to your jacket and they don’t come off while you’re on the slopes. To give it a chic look, you can embellish your gloves or look for a pair that has a neat print / pattern design on it.
  
• SCARF – this is something that doesn’t necessarily have to be new or special for your skiing trip, If you already have a multitude of scarves at home, just take the warmest and cutest ones with you to help keep you warm on your trip.
  
• CHUNKY BEANIE – you’ll need your chunkiest, warmest beanie on your ski trip. You’ll also want it to be a pretty one so try a knitted one with a cute pattern or maybe even that personalized beanie your best friend gave you last Christmas.
  
• SNOW BOOTS – snow boots are heavy-duty ones that are meant to protect you from inch after inch of snow. If you’re looking for chic snow boots that will make you the most stylish skier or snowboarder out there, check out Sorel.
  
• SKI SUIT – not sure how to put together an outfit that’s fit for actual skiing? Save yourself the hassle and get a ski suit instead. You’ll be amazed at how these go from basic blacks to super chic and stylish ones.

Bulky puffer coats can look really chic when styled right but if not, they can be super unflattering which is something that not anyone would ever want or aim for. If you’re someone who either gets cold quickly or if you live somewhere where the temps tend to drop real low, a puffer coat would make a great addition to your closet. The way it makes you feel all warm and cozy is enough to make you want to make it work for you. If you’ve been dying to wear a puffer coat but have been holding off because you’re not sure one would look good on your, check out these tips on how to style a puffer coat.

• ACCENTUATE YOUR WAIST – the thing about puffer coats is that they’re bulky, chunky and shapeless so it’s understandable that many women who don’t want any more inches around their waist are thrown off at wearing them. The key to making a puffer coat look flattering is to create a nice silhouette with it by cinching it with a belt and accentuating your waist. You can simply use any belt you have that you think would look nice with your puffer coat or you can get one that has a built in belt.

• COLOR, PRINT AND PATTERN PLAY – don’t just settle for the usual puffer jacket, have fun with it! Go for a puffer coat that comes in a nice and bright color or one that has fun and pretty print and patterns. This could very well be your next cold weather statement piece, even. If you can’t find yourself a puffer coat that stands out enough, you can mix, match and layer it with other pieces that do instead for lots of contrast.
• GET IT QUILTED – afraid of ending up looking like the Michelin man in your puffer coat? If you really think you can’t pull off the traditional puffer coat, you can go for a one with a quilted seam instead. There are also other seam patterns like chevron and diagonals, all of which you can try out if you’re not into wearing anything horizontal.
• HAVE IT WITH FUR – the traditional puffer coat has a very casual, streetstyle-ish look to it but if you’re looking to dress it up, you can opt for a piece that has fur details and trimming on it. Fur always instantly adds a touch of elegance to any piece so if you want to go for a more posh look with your puffer coat, a furry one is the best way to go.
  
• KEEP THE REST OF THE OUTFIT SLIM – a good trick to making sure that you don’t look any heavier / chunkier while wearing a puffer coat is to keep the rest of your outfit’s silhouette slim. This means that you shouldn’t wear anything heavy or chunky other than the puffer coat itself.

For the office – one really nice way to wear a fluted skirt is to wear it with either a dressy button up or a blazer and wear it to the office. The fluted skirt makes a really nice alternative to the usual pencil skirt and is perfect on days when you just want to look and feel a little bit more girly than usual and less formal and stuffy. Make sure to keep the rest of your outfit more structured to keep the look appropriate for the office instead of looking more casual.

With a chunky / heavy top – if you’re trying to achieve that slouchy yet chic look for fall, the fluted skirt is one of the best things that you can wear to get it. Wear a chunky / heavy top like a sweater or a cape and pair it up with your fluted skirt and you have yourself an easy, relaxed and laidback look that’s perfect for lazy days.

 
On trend with a crop top – we all know crop tops have been one of the biggest trends in the fashion world lately. In fact, they’ve become so big that fashionistas have found clever ways to wear them all year long. Yep, even during the freezing cold days of winter. If you like being on trend, one really cute outfit you can create is that of a fluted skirt and a crop top. It’s very girly and sweet as well as a little flirty and is perfect for dates.

 
Fancy for a party – because of the cute silhouette that the fluted skirt has, it can easily be worn with a dressy top and be ready for a party. To make it even more party-ready, try to get your hands on a fluted skirt with interesting details like something with a bold print or one that’s embellished with gun stuff like beads or glitter or sequins.

Back to basics – lastly, if you’re looking for a way to get the most bang for your buck from purchasing a fluted skirt, I would suggest getting a basic one in a fairly neutral color. This makes it easier for you to mix and match your fluted skirt with anything, no matter what color, style, cut or level of frilliness it may have.
