Lip Stains to L-O-V-E!

Check these out, too...

Lip stains are amazing for times when you want to try a bold kisser, without overdoing the drama.

Our picks pack plenty of moisture too, so you get all the bennies of a balm plus a slick of cool color. Sorry, gloss, we’ve got a new fave (for the minute, anyway).

Get Red-dy

Brick red pouts pack lots of drama, but this draw-it-on hue isn’t too powerful.

Apply it to dry lips, keep your eyeshadow earthy and add just a bit of blush.

CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain in Teasing Blush, $9, walgreens.com

Just Peachy

Peachy lips look fab on absolutely everyone (seriously!). This blend is way moisturizing and adds a whisper of cute color.

Hello, date night.

Tarte 24.7 Lip Sheer in Summer Fling, $17, drugstore.com

Double Duty

We heart products that double up. This lip ‘n’ cheek stain gives your face a just-in-from-the-cold look and makes your pucker a custom shade of plum.

Love it with a coppery lip liner and a flash of mascara.

Stila Pomegranate Crush Lip & Cheek Stain, $25, sephora.com

Very Berry

Addicted to lip balm? We hear ya! This one has a berry tint, but you can still swipe it on whenever the urge hits. Amazing!

i luff lip balm. i seriously am addicted. i ran out recently...i like the last one!

turtles_in_africa on 1/5/2010 9:45:17 PM

hey mod...
have any tips for applying mascara? i have naturally stick-straight eyelashes that are clumpy even without any mascara on.
Also, i'd like some tips on eyeshadow and lip colors. i have sort of fair skin with freckles, green eyes, and blonde hair with a bit of a reddish tint to it.
Thanks so much!

Hey babe,

Try using a mascara with a curved brush - that will help prevent clumping. You might also want to get an eyelash curler to help them curve. If you have fair skin, stick to pretty light lip colors. For green eyes, try greens, browns, and blues for eye shadow.

MOD!!!!!!!!
Okay, so I have a huge crush on this guy at my school, he is funny, kind, sweet, cute, and I can tell he has a lot of respect for girls by the way he treats me and some of his other female friends. I really want to go out with him, but the problem is, he is a little shy in that department. Also he is a bit of a do-gooder, so he doesn't really go out with girls (well so far). I am aware that I'm gonna have to take the first step, but how should I ask him out? I've known him for a year, so I know him pretty well, but I just really like him! Help!!

Hey girl! Ask him if he wants to go see a movie with you or something. That way you can get to know eachother better and he can become less shy around you.

I'm 14,currently I am only wearing powder.I would like to start wearing some more makeup,but want it to look natural.What are some good basic products to start with?

Hey girl! At 14, you don't need much makeup. You def don't need heavy foundation (or even any at all to be honest). Maybe some loose powder blush. Some eyeshadow and a little bit of mascara. Makeup is supposed to enhance your looks, not cover them up! Let your beauty shine!

londongirl12 on 11/15/2009 7:05:15 PM

if you like using just lip balm or a chapstick type thing.... you should try softlips...they have great flavors and you will love them!! i do...they're great

How do you achieve the frosted effect for your eyes and lips?

future ms. cullen on 11/10/2009 7:10:10 PM

You dont want to wear lipstick, because, when your about to make out with a guy, haveing lipstick on is gross. Gettin it all over his face...no.

MOD:
My one of my best friend is always talk to like everyone in our choir and I I get nervous that one day I won't be her best friend if she meets anyone who is better than me.
Also Any tips on just how to let go and be yourself?
Also I'm 11 and I want to start wearing light make up ( my mom doesn't really care as long as I don't over do it) I could wear when I want to dress up?
ty!

Just because your BFF is sociable, she's not going to replace you! Don't worry! If you're worried, then talk to her!! And honestly, just do it: let go and be yourself. You'll regret not doing it earlier. The makeup sounds cute, so go for it! Best,

tomorrow i'm wearing a black tee, mini skirt, and black leggings, should i wear a scarf or a big necklace? thx!

Hey girly! If you have a bright colored scarf I suggest you wear that. It's very cute winter wear But if you have bright bold necklace you love then wear that. It depends on your mood. But my first choice would be a bright fun scarf. have fun! xoxo kerra

Me again!
Ok, so I asked my mom if i could start wearing make up a few months ago and she said no because she says it'll make my eczema worse and it's been healing lately. She's also saying that I don't need make-up. I know she has a point here, but I want to start wearing it. what are some ways to convince her to let me? Thanks again!

You could try starting small...and ask if you could wear lipgloss or eyeshadow...let her know you don't want to wear a full face of make-up, but a couple highlighted features could let you have some fun! Let her know you just want to have fun and play around to try different styles. Starting small is the best bet!

I love the Stila one, but I use it in Cherry Crush. They use this product in Twilight for Rosalie Hale, and I look pretty close to what she looks like, so it looked very natural. I really liked it!

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!! Hey!! How do I give myself a perfect manicure and pedicure @ home?? Thanks!!

Hey girly, I don't know about a perfect manicure and pedicure, but I can give you some tips on how to get a good one (lol). Start by washing your hands and feet really well. After you dry your nails, rub lotion on them and then file them down either into a square or oval shape. Next apply a clear coat of polish to your nails, let dry, apply your desired nail color and one last coat of clear polish. Repeat for your toes and your nails show be glistening!

i have a lik tan skin colour lik sorta a little tanner than a peach colour. wat colour nail polish would be good on me? and i also have a little below the shoulder dark brown hair that is super straight. wat is a good hair style that i could kinda quick?
Thanks!! <3

Hey babe,

Try dark colors - they're really in right now and they look good on pretty much everyone. Try braids for your hair or just pulling back the top layer, maybe with two cute barrettes on either side of your face.

I have light tan skin(buff beige).What color(s)of nail polish would look best on me?Also,what is a good inexpensive nail polish brand?Thanks so much!

Hey babe,

dark colors are really in right now, and they would look great with your skin tone. Try brownish reds and dark blues. I'm a big fan of Lycra's Wear 10 line. They last a long time and look great.

MOD MOD MOD!! so i like this guy..a lot. he is in my homeroom but thats all i ever see him in. i have gym, he has health. he used to be in my spanish class but he dropped out and he switched from my sci class to another one. its hard to flirt with him because his sisters in my homeroom to and she is my friend and i dont want her to be like gorss...thts my bro ur flirting w/. also, every1 knows him as a perv so i dont know what to do. i know he is really nice because ive talked to him b4. i want to get over him but i dont know how. what should i do to get his attention.

Hey Girl! I get that it is tough to flirt with him bc you don't see him much! Lunchtime is always a great time for socializing, so sit at his table. Just be yourself and be friendly! Being friends is a good start to something more! His sister will let you know if anything is bothering her, I'm sure!

MOD MOD MOD! my teeth are yellowish in color, and no matter how many times I brush them, or how long I brush them for, or what toothpaste I use, they never seem to get whiter. Do you know any good teeth whitening pastes or strips that I could use, and won't cost that much money? Thank you!!

Hey Girl, first stay away from sodas that may stain your teeth! Can't quit the soda? Try drinking it through a straw! As far as toothpastes, any that are specifically for whitening would be good to use! Try Crest Whitening Expressions. White strips will be a little pricey, so if you have been savin' up some cash, this may be a good thing to splurge on! They are sure to give you results!

jewelsies13 on 11/6/2009 12:49:14 PM

mod! i bought one of those dresses tht looks like a shirt and a skirt and its a tube dress. the top has horizontal prison stripes and the bottom is like a black tutu or petticoat. It looks to harsh when i wear it alone so what can i wear with it to soften it?

Hey Girl, Try a cute cardi in a light pink or baby blue to soften up the style and color of the dress. If you want to really go for it try hot pink! Not feelin' the cardi? Go for feminine and light colored accessories (or ballet flats!) to soften up your oufit. You will look super cute!

GO VEGETARIAN! For more info, request it at my profile Smile
Save the animals, be healthy, and stop global warming by going vegetarian. I have been a vegetarian for a year and 5 months.What is it? A vegetarian is when your diet contains no meat. How does it save animals? It obviously helps to stop the slautering of animals such as cows and chicken. How can you eat them when they are so cute (they are your friends).How does it improve your health? It cuts out lots of fat and chlosteral and records show that vegetarian have a lower risk of obesity and diseases.Plus, reduces your chance of diseases and cancer. How does it stop global warming? Lots of energy is used in meat factories and butchering. The factory also creates pollution. It also kills trees so there is room for farms that kill animals for profit.

Ok, so I told my friend I don't wanna sit by her in math because I'm getting bad grades because she is always talking to me. I try to tell her to stop, but it's gotten to the point where, like I said, my grades are falling. So yesterday I sat in front of class next to 2 boys, but so i could be by the teacher, NOT the boys!! haha. But my friend said that I was being mean for not sitting by her AND she said I like the boys, too! Not true, I want good grades! What should I tell her to not hurt her feelings???

Hey babe, just tell her the truth. Explain that your grades are dropping so you needed to move closer to focus better. She should understand!

ok, so my english teacher is kinda mean. shes nice as a person, but when she starts teaching she gets all mean and stuff. one of my friends and i are really strict about grades. like, our parents arent but we are. it turns out that on our report card i got a 93% a and my friend got like an 89% b. i felt so bad for her cuz she said she was gonna cry cuz it was her first b. i told her to go ask our english teacher why she didn't get high grades and stuff, and i went in with her cuz she asked me to. the teacher like blew her off! she didn't answer any of her questions, she said stuff like "i give bonus points to students who try hard" which everyone knows is false....i don't know what to do!!she grades stuff so unfairly and i've asked her about it... but she doesn't do anything when you ask her. i really dont like her all of my other teachers are so nice and sweet except for this one. what should i do????? (sorry this is like REALLY long)

Hey girl, sounds like if she's unfairly grading all of you, someone higher up should be notified. Tell your parents to talk to your guidance counselor about it. They should take care of the problem. If it's affecting everyone in your class, it totes needs to be addressed.
