Ten deadly beauty sins

like streptococcus are caused by over exfoliating in many cases and making the skin less protected. Instead of scrubbing until the skin has no protection, using exfoliators gently can mean that the protection is continued and may stop the possibility of illness from this terrible disease.

THREE PAINTED LINES

Some people seem to be under the impression that what is natural doesn't look good enough, and try to recreate what nature has already given them by shaving off their eyebrows and using a pencil to draw eyebrows onto their skin. It looks unnatural, and instead of doing this, their easiest bet would have been to pluck the original eyebrows to form a thinner line.

Seen on younger faces what this produces is an aging effect that is horrid, and on the older lady, it looks like it was drawn on. Ways to cope with hair that grows where you don't want it are available, and one of the quickest and most effective ways of removing that irritating hair across the nose and excess eyebrows is waxing. In moments, those straggly hairs are neat and tidy and look fashionable, giving the face a great look that says you care about what you look like.

FOUR I CHANGED MY SIZE

Women seem afraid to admit that their clothing is a size larger. Instead of changing up a size, they will struggle to wear clothes that are too tight because their vanity will not allow them to admit that their size is increasing. If you look at clothing that is too tight, instead of enhancing the look what it creates is extra bulges and extreme discomfort. Those ladies really are not kidding anyone, least of all themselves, and a much healthier way to get over the fact that you have increased in size is to wear clothing that fits you regardless of your size, and cut the labels out if it bothers you that much.

FIVE THE BUMBLE BEE EFFECT

Take two pieces of paper, one with lines across it and one with lines going up and down and comparing the two will demonstrate a beauty mistake that people make. Stripes going upwards create the impression of length, while the stripes going across give the impression of width. Tall ladies that wear upward stripes look taller. Fatter ladies that wear stripes that go around give that horrible bumble bee effect that makes their bodies look enormous. By using the correct kind of stripe or avoiding stripes altogether, the look can be immediately enhanced.

SIX THE LOLLIPOP EFFECT

This is an all time classic blunder that the writer has personally experienced. Wearing baggy tops to hide
