Bright Eyeshadow Tutorial by COCOA BLOOM: Makeup Tips for Dark Skintones
For divas with dark skin tones who want to highlight their eye shodow makeup, follow this tip.
Basic necessities for a diva
What a diva needs for daily life:
1. Get a job:
You need a job to support your divaism among other things that are important like paying rent and putting food on the table. Even if you already got a job, it will not be enough at a time like this. You can add a part time job to earn extra money. Evening jobs and weekend jobs are acceptable. For divas under 18, you can get a summer job while school is out, you can also take an after school job or weekend job as well. You can also check with you school advisor or counselor about any youth employement programs that are available. This step is about building self worth and independence, that way you don't have to depend on anybody to pay your way all the time.
2. Get a financial advisor
It doesn't have to be a professional advisor. If you cannot afford one, that's o.k. Just pick someone you trust with money, who has lots of financial sense, knows the ecomonics like the back of their hand, and gives wise adice that are legitimate. This person can help you set up a budget planner, teach you how to balance the the budget, how to save the money you earn, make wise investment decisions, what is the best credit card to use, and how to build good credit or repair bad credit. It will help you learn self discipline when it comes to personal money management.
3. Apply for a bank account
Your income has to go somewhere to pay bills. Open savings account and checking account at the bank of your choice. Shop around first to find the best benefits and the requirements that are easy for you to apply. You must have a clean credit history before applying. It's also essential to set up an emergency fund for only emergencies, and a retirement fund which you will live on when you reach your golden years (age 65 and over) It's also a good idea to set up an investment account if you want to build a stock profolio for stock options. You can also get into real estate investing, which is much less riskier than stock investing. It's best that you do read books and do research on real estate or stock markets before taking part in them. One of the best books regarding real estate investing is Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.
4. Use prepaid debit cards.
Start with debit cards that are prepaid first. You can add some of your earnings into your card by phone or online by purchasing a MoneyPak from stores like Rite Aid. Look up the MoneyPak website to find a store location near you that sells the MoneyPak card. It's only $4.95 for the processing fee. You can also load your paycheck and tax returns into your prepaid card directly. Check the annual percentage rate (APR) and the monthly fees before applying for a prepaid card. Zero APRs are best to start with.
5. Do a 30 minute beauty regimine
Take some time to do a little self spucing like facials or manicures. It's important to keep your beauty in tip - top shape
6. Assemble aparrel that are in season
Light and bright colors are for summer, dark colors and neutral colors are for winter. Spring and autumn, you can mix and match.
7. No smoking
I don't care it this sick habit calms you down when under stressful pressure. I don't care if it keeps you from overeating. Any kind of excuses you have don't really matter, your health does and so are the people around you, especially children. So, think twice before putting it to your mouth. For non-smokers, be aware of your indoor surroundings regarding second hand smoke.
8. No alcohol
It's O.K. only if you're a social drinker, but you must watch your intake. Too much alcohol can impair your judgement and your clear sight temporarily and it can mess up your health. So, you must pick a designative driver if you're planning to go out for drinks. Never ride in a car with a drunk driver. And under any circumstances, never take perscription pills with liquor. Young divas, I strongly recommend that you wait until you are the age of 21 and never attend parties that involved underaged.
9. No drugs
Whether it's illegal or legal drugs, you really need to stay clear from. Doing too much can not only mess up your health, but can also be fatal. If you're prescribed medication, use them only as directed. Stay clear from your peers who do drugs or sell them. They might manipulate into doing drugs as well.
10. Buy what you can afford
I know it's a deal breaker for the materialistic type of women, those who only want the finer things in life. But that's only for women who have wealth and not debt. In other words, if you only living on fixed income, then you cannot afford the finer things like diamonds, furs, cars and expensive clothes and shoes. YOU MUST STAY WITHIN YOUR BUDGET AT ALL TIMES. You must not waste your hard earned money on items that are of petty use. Remember, bills, rent, and food comes first before anything.
11. Check for deals and sales when shopping
The lower the prices the better. Sign up for store cards for huge discounts on merchandise. Read their current flyers before shopping. Always keep current coupons handy.
12. Exercise on a daily basis
You need to do that to stay healthy and fit. One total hour of exercise a day. Sport activities are also great to keep active.
13. Add raw fruits and vegetables to your daily diet.
Remember, you're eating to live, not living to eat. So, get into the habit of eating fresh raw vegan foods besides cooked foods. Watch your intake on salty, sugary, starchy, and oily fried foods.
14. Set aside money for charities
When you give a lot, you'll receive much in return. So, save some of your money to donate and support your favorite non-profit organizations for worthy causes.
15. Set aside time to volunteer
You'll be doing a great deal of service when you help out those in need by volunteering. Plus, you might build some job skills.
14. Every season, purchase three sets of business outfits, five sets of cusual outfits (for divas under 18 years old ten sets of causual, two sets of bed clothes, and two sets of formal attire.
Do this every year to keep up with the latest trends
15. Meditate daily
One of biggest stress busters. You can meditate indoors in a nice quite spot or outdoors if you prefer to be in tuned with nature. Start with 15 minutes a day if you're very busy and work you way up to at least an hour depending your schedule. Any time of day is good as long as it's quiet.
Remember, you don't need to be rich and famous to be a diva, bein yourself is what a diva is all about. Blessings!

Beauty routines and regimines for the diva
At times like this when the economy is in shambles and unemployment is high even though it's getting low, it could be problematic for a diva to not only keep up with her appearance but also the care of her hair, skin, nails, body and health regarding the costs in services of beauty salons, health clubs, gym memberships, and doctor visits. These normal regimines you can do yourself at home. Yes, you! Why? You got hands. You can do them yourself. However, if you're a hand or arm amputee or born with no hands or arms, you can ask someone you know to help you. There's no reason to get lazy on it. The best part about doing them at home yourself is that you can save tons of money. If you don't work how to, you can ask someone you know to teach you how or you can do some research on these routines through books on beauty or online. If you're a busy body who is always on the go, I suggest you make a daily schedule and set aside thirty minutes day to practice one routine. The following is my weekly schedule which is used an example.
Monday facial
Tuesday hair removal
Wednesday hair wash
Thursday pedicure
Friday manicure
You can rearrange your schedule on your routine to the point where you feel more comfortable with your time. You can do it at anytime of day. I suggest that you can do the routines after you come home from work or school. If you're a stay at home mom you can do it when the child is alseep, if you're a homemaker you can doing between chores or after your chores are done, but if you're always traveling, make sure you bring a bottle of shampoo and a bottle of condtioner, manicure set, any hair removal kits like shaving razors or electric razors, a tube of facial scrub, a tube of facial masque, facial toner, facial exfoliant and moisturizer and lotion with you. You can buy any of them at your local dollar stores like Family Dollar or Dollar Tree. It's best if you place them in your carry on bag when you're flying.
As far as exercising is concerned, it's important to get in and keep in shape not just for the sake of your body's appearance, but also for the sake of living longer and conditioning the health of your heart, your lungs, the joints in your body and nervous system. You don't need to get kick your hard earned money in gym monthly memberships and any bulky equipment that takes up so much floor space that you have no room to move around. What you need is plenty of floor space to do aerobics tai chi, dance, in home walking, or kickboxing on, a floor mat, a couple of blocks and a belt or strap for yoga and pilates exercises, a set of weights for strength training, a chair for balancing, and jump rope or small trampoline for jumping, and a step board for step dancing and a few blank vhs tapes or blank DVDs to record your favorite exercise shows. Now you got your own personalized gym. This method is useful in case you can't make it to the gym and fitness center due to bad weather, natural disasters, lack of cash for car fare and car gas, or sickness. Things like this can happen, it's better to be prepared. But if you need help in keeping track of your process, you can make friends with a personal trainer and he or she will give you advice and routines on fitness, health, and diet.
And for your health, invest in taking a multivitamin daily, drink eight cups of spring water eight ounces of each cup (64 ounces total) daily and invest in eating five servings of fruits and vegatables daily. Always visit your doctor for checkups on your health, also do some online research on at home treatments and remedies for any sickness and symptoms such as colds, stomach problems, etc. You can also take a local health class to learn any issues regarding weight loss, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. If you have a long term condition that is life threatening, do research on treatments, diets, and medications to help you overcome your ailments. Be sure to medications only as prescibed daily, keep all your medications update, schedule yout time for oral medications that way you will mot for forget, and PLEASE, under any circumstances, watch your oral or injection intakes on your medication that way you will not overdose by accident.
Remember, you don't need to be rich and famous to be a diva, just being yourself is what a diva is all about. Blessings.
