Look Drop Dead Gorgeous

So you want to be noticed by every guy in the world?! Are you tired of looking "blah?" If you're ready to revamp your look and turn heads, keep reading. We all want to be noticed and loved by everyone. You can be the prettiest girl in the room. This article will tell you how to be hot, sexy, pretty... well, drop dead gorgeous.

For Girls:
1. Apply Makeup if you Need It. Sometimes you'll hear that you don't need all that makeup, and it's true; don't over do it. To do your makeup start by washing your face and then using a glow moisturizer. Clear up or avoid any acne. Wear concealer, foundation and bronzer, if necessary. on your apples (the rounds of your cheeks that show up when you smile hard) and a very little bit on your chin and nose. Wear blush just below your cheek bones. For your eyes, use an eyeshadow that accentuates your eye colour, then curl your eyelashes. Use one or two coats of mascara and then a jet black eyeliner, depending on how intense you want to look and the color of your skin. Fare skin calls for a brown eye liner, whereas darker skin needs a darker shade. Then put on a lipstick or lipgloss that is the same colour as your blush, or else also looks good with your skin tone. Strive for flawless skin. Protect your skin from the sun and do your skin a favor and don't do tanning beds, because this will ruin your skin later in life, so instead use bronzing lotions. Enhance the shape of your lips with a light pink lipliner, use nude, creamy, a bit shiny lipstick, put on some pink blush, a bit of mascara and some shiny light pink eyeshadow on the center of your eyelids. Or the same makeup, with your eyes carefully contoured with black eyeliner, instead of the light pink eyeshadow. On this model, you can think of other ways to aply makeup, keeping it natural at the same time.
2. Hair. Brush your every day using a detangler spray to keep the tangles away. Whatever hairstyle you like make sure you work it. Get a straight iron, curling iron and even a crimper. Go to the salon and ask what style will suit your face. Work with it a lot and use the right products. Experiment with a lot of different hairstyles. Make sure the shade of your hair is vibrant. Consider going to a proper, expensive hairdresser. The extra money is worth it, and the products they use are much better quality. If you're not sure what hair cut looks good on you, ask your stylist what haircuts suit your face shape (round, oval, square, heart shaped). To get it curly lightly apply hair with styling spray and use a medium-sized iron to curl varying widths of hair. Undo slightly with your fingers. Then put mousse in. To get it straight use a dab of shine serum on damp strands before blow-drying with a paddle brush then use a straightener.
3. Wear cute but not revealing clothes. Be super stylish and a little funky. Shop a lot and buy fashion magazines to keep up with the hottest trends. Find the Perfect Outfit. Buy anything that you think is cute from any of your favourite stores. Get 5 T shirts, 3 flipflops in 3 different colors, 5 tanktops, as many hoodies as you want, and at least 3 pairs of jeans.
4. Exercise.
Work on your shape.If you feel confident the way you are, then do not change anything. Part of being drop dead gorgeous is to have confidence in yourself.
5. Smile. People look better when they smile. Use a brand of whitening strips that you trust and take good care of your teeth. Go to the dentist often and get braces if you need them its better to get them as a kid then a teen and its better to get it as a teen than an adult. Smile! You can even practice smiling in the mirror it'll be a great start to your day and set you off in the right mood. You never know who is appreciating your smile.Brush your teeth after each meal to avoid having bad breath. If your teeth are not naturally white, go to a dentist to have done a professional whitening; if your teeth are white, keep them that way by avoiding smoking, Coke, and too much coffee.

For Boys:
1. Hygiene. Shower!!! Wash your hair and shower every day. Be clean.
2. Pay Attention to Your Skin. Some guys look better without facial hair. (Ask your female friends for their truthful opinion.) If you're one of those guys, strive for a clean cut with no goatees, mustaches or beards! If you're one of those guys who look sexy with facial hair, go for it. Practically nobody admires a hairy back. Consider shaving or waxing it. Shaving your stomach, legs, and arms might be a bit excessive, but if you have very thick hair growth in those areas, it might be a good idea. You might also want to think about using a trimmer if you're really hairy and don't want to shave. Keep your skin nice and keep you facial hair in check. Also, maybe tanning a bit would be helpful. Don't be snow white. Have at least some color. Just don't over do it.
3. Be Confident. Be confident and nice to everyone but not stuck up. Don't show off too much. But remember showing off can turn the girls on.
4. Clothes. Wear cute but not revealing clothes. You don't need to always look perfect and neat. Definitely get any clothes that you feel and look GREAT in (once again, ask any girl friends what looks hot and what does not). Boys, you look good in jeans. Keep away from linens except for on holiday and shell suit trackies are not for everyday. If you're the athletic type, then try cotton joggers instead.
5. Hair. Have any hair-style that looks good on you and makes you feel attractive and sexy. Keep your hair soft with conditioner. To make it straight apply a light styling lotion and blow-dry forward using a half paddle brush. Use a flat iron on small sections of your hair for a sleek, straight finish. Don't be obsessive about hair, and if you have a great face, wear it short, although some boys look very cute with longer hair. Don't try too hard to make it look good, keep it kind of messy.
6. Remember, even if you are a really cute guy, girls will not like you if you are full of yourself. So be humble, and even if you know you look good, don't make it too obvious of how sure you are!
7. shave Be sure to shave EVERY DAY for a clean look, especially if you cannot yet grow a full beard. nothing is worse than a crustache.

Try to be confident in yourself. It'll allow you to pull anything off and your "off" days won't be as noticeable. Fake it until you make it! Do have nice, well groomed fingernails and toenails. Don't try to wear clothes that don't fit you. If it's too small, or too big, get it tailored or return it. Play up your fabulousness! If you want kissable lips apply a lip liner, blend, then gloss. Go for a free makeover. Make your way to the makeup counter of your local department store and ask for some assistance trying new colors. If you always wear shades of plum, tell the sales associate to break out the peach tones for a completely new look. You'll go home with a fab new take on your face. Remember, when you feel good, you will start to look good.Dressing skimpy won't get you very far, except probably a one night stand and the label of a slut. Keep your pride intact!Drink plenty of water and remember to keep enriched foods such as vegetables, fish, fruit and wheat in your diet, that will keep your skin glowing.

Smelling good is always attractive! Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush scents smell wonderful, and they are very sweet smelling. You could also get Bath & Bodyworks perfumes as well, they have a variety of scents, a personal favorite is "AppleTini" beauty rush by Victoria secret, so go and try it out! But also keep in mind that not many people will enjoy spending time around you if you overdo it, and some may even be allergic to some scents and will avoid people wearing perfume or cologne.
Remember, a good attitude is key. Being 'pretty' or being 'the sexiest homecoming queen' is not the main object of life. When you have confidence, you show to others and yourself that you don't need makeup to be beautiful. Being beautiful on the inside is what matters, and you will attract a lot of wonderful people your way, versus people who only like you because you're pretty. Don't WANT to be drop dead gorgeous, WANT to make other people feel good around you, then even if you have an off day as far as physical looks are concerned, people will still find you far more attractive if you are approachable and friendly.

Never lose who you truly are. Personality matters a ton more than looks, keep that in mind. But that doesn't mean you should look trashy, either. Chew minty gum and carry mints in your purses. Who wants bad breath?!
Never starve yourself or become anorexic, a serious illness that can have serious consequences. This can lead to illness or in even more serious issues, death Understand that the models and actresses in magazines and the movies have a team of people helping them look that way. Add good lighting and airbrushing out the flaws [And Computers to lift everything and move everything in the face] to the mix. The REALITY is most of us do not have a hairdresser/makeup artist/stylist who is with us 16 hours a day every day. DON'T think that because you don't look like the media image of a "good looking woman" that you are just plain and boring. Be yourself and play up what you do have. Downplay the flaws.

Seattle Summer Sea Fair Celebration

Have you held a wide-eyed child as a beautiful float glides down Fourth Avenue, craned your neck skyward as the Blue Angels suddenly disappear from view, gasped for air as a hydroplane comes out of the north turn bouncing from sponson to sponson? These are just a few of the exhilirating moments you might experience at Seafair.

It’s Seattle’s traditional summer festival. A month-long, region-wide barbecue, that brings an entire community together in celebration. For 59 years Seafair has been about community events, parades, Miss Seafair, the Navy and Coast Guard, amateur athletics, airplanes and of course, boat racing. But most of all, Seafair has been about people and it continues to be.

There are more than 5,000 Seafair volunteers, hundreds of thousand of spectators who come out for the parades and hydroplane races, thousands more that participate in the half marathon, torchlight run and triathlon and the youth who participate in the Miss Seafair Scholarship.

It’s about Drill Teams who practice for hours each week to synchronize their movements, hydroplane crews that fine tune helicopter turbine engines to perfection, the Pirates and Clowns that visit hospitals and convalescent centers in the “off-season” and marching bands that rehearse songs and steps for weeks in preparation of their performances in neighborhoods and through the streets of downtown.

Behind the scenes is a dedicated 40-member Board of Directors, a talented year-round staff of only 12 and a dozen seasonal staff and summer interns that bring it all together.

Seafair is for everyone. Most events are still free and as a recent local newspaper column stated, it’s a part of what makes up a “Quintessential Northwesterner”. Come, and be a part of one of the happenings that makes the Puget Sound area such a great place to live.

Health Care Affordability

Strong majorities of Americans across the political spectrum would support diverse approaches to expanding health insurance coverage, including letting uninsured adults participate in Medicare or state public insurance programs, such as Medicaid and the State Children's Health Insurance Program, offering tax credits for people to purchase coverage on their own or requiring employers to offer and contribute to the cost of their employees' health insurance coverage.
