The White Queen 'how-to' from Alice in Wonderland

These pro tricks will take your mascara to a whole new level
How to Get Long, Thick Lust-Worthy Lashes
So you just bought that top-rated mascara. Now what? Put it to good use! It's all about using the right techniques to get your longest, thickest lashes ever.



Gorgeous! Good wig too! Alice in Wonderland fans! I have another quick how-to lesson so you can achieve this look for your prom, party, date, or back yard bbq. 
Start with these few products and easy steps:
1. Foundation: select a very light shade and there are so many sales going on right now you can pick up a bottle of porcelain toned liquid foundation for nothing! Get some good setting powder in a matching porcelain shade while you are at it.  Smooth on entire face and neck area.
2. Eyes: Matte beige on browbone, matte plum/light brown along lash line and under eyes, there is a glowing halo around her eyes created by the plum brown shadows. Smudge a dark brown liner into lash base. Apply a ridiculous amount of mascara on top and a wee bit on bottom of lashes.
3. Eyebrows: look, either you've been using the Revitalash and have already grown in some personal Brookes or you haven't. Either way, here is how you can have full brow hair: start with dark brown shadow/powder and cover the eyebrow and begin to shape in to the full square at the nose and tapered towards the end. Use colored brow wax ( like Loracs or Arbonne's) to stroke hair like pieces of wax onto the eyebrow hair. If you need more fullness, go over the wax with more powder.
4. Lips: you need three shades to create the mouth. A dark red liner, a slightly lighter deep red and then a muted pale pink for the center. Line your mouth and make the defined points, then using a lip brush apply the deep red lipstick tone and finish using a clean brush with the pale pink in the center of the mouth.

You look just like a queen and you will be the belle of the ball! Enjoy!

Alice! Alice! Alice! Disneyland'ish!

What's appropriate (and not!) when it comes to grooming, makeup and more
We Solve Your Biggest Beauty Etiquette Dilemmas
Never know when to tip the bathroom attendant or tell a friend she's making a huge fashion faux pas? Here you'll find the answers to the etiquette questions that have long confounded you.


Oh this is not the Alice in Wonderland of my youth! I am so excited for the movie and wonder what character I will makeup as for the premiere? Hmm...  Well while I ponder on that, visit this link to read a story by composer Danny Elfman and what it was like creating the sound track.

And I quote Mr. Elfman "Although the "Alice in Wonderland" score is richly orchestral and graced with choral voices, there is one unforgettable moment where it deviates from that sound – people are sure to leave the theater buzzing about the scene in which the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) dances the "futterwack." We won't say another word about it, except to tell you that it brings down the house! "It was crazy!" Danny says with a grin. "I wrote all different kinds of pieces for Johnny's futterwack dance – and I came up with that one on the last day. Tim wanted something funky, and that's what he got!"

Get your Alice style on and see you at the theatre!
