1,813 | How to Appeal a Judgment Without an Attorney | 1. Deciding Whether to Appeal
1-1. Understand the requirements for an appeal.
In order to appeal a trial court's decision, you must be able to answer yes to all of the following questions:
First, are you a person who can appeal the trial court's decision? To answer yes, you must have been a party to the case at the trial stage. You cannot appeal on behalf of someone else, for example a friend or relative.
Second, can the decision in your case be appealed? To answer yes, the trial court must have issued a final judgment. The final judgment is the decision at the end of your case that decides everything. It will usually tell you or the other party what they have to do. You cannot appeal decisions made before the final judgment; you must wait to appeal these issues once the final judgment has been issued.
Third, do you have time for an appeal? To answer yes, you must be able to draft and file your notice of appeal within a certain deadline. If you fail to file your notice of appeal before the deadline, your case will be dismissed and you will not be able to appeal. In California, the deadline to file your notice of appeal varies depending on the type of case you have. For example, if you are a part of a civil case involving an amount less than $25,000, you must file your notice by either:
30 days after you have been notified of the judgment; or
90 days after the entry of the judgment, whichever is sooner.
1-2. Read the judge's ruling.
If you answered yes to all three questions, you have the right to appeal. However, before you appeal, you must find a valid reason to do so. Read through the judge's ruling and identify the reasons the judge ruled the way he or she did.
Appellate courts can only look at whether the trial court made a legal error and whether that legal error changed the final decision in the case.For example, an appeal might look at whether a trial court judge applied the wrong law to your set of facts.
Appellate courts do not offer new trials and you will not be able to present any new evidence.
1-3. Review your evidence.
If you think you have found a legal error in the judge's ruling, look through your evidence to see whether you can back up your claim. Because you will not be able to introduce any new evidence, you need to make sure you can prove the error with the record you created at the trial level.
For example, if you think the judge gave incorrect and harmful jury instructions to the jury, find the judge's statement of the instructions in the trial record.
1-4. Consider the cost of an appeal.
Between the filing fees, court fees, fees for getting materials to the appeals court, and fees for consulting an attorney, filing an appeal can be very expensive.
An appeal also takes up a lot of time. You will be doing lots of legal research, writing a legal brief, and preparing to argue in front of the court.
An appeal can also cause stress on you and your loved ones, and can extend the litigation for many years in some cases.
Appellate court costs typically exceed those of the trial court. For example, in California filing a notice of appeal costs $775. It is not unusual for court transcripts to exceed $1,000. Some states have fee waivers in civil cases for individuals with low incomes (most notably California). If you received a fee waiver for your trial court case you should be eligible for one in the appeals courts.
2. Filing a Notice of Appeal
2-1. Find a notice of appeal form.
A notice of appeal is the piece of paper you file with the trial court in order to notify that court and the other party that you plan on appealing. Most courts will have a form available online for you to fill out. For example, in California, the notice of appeal form can be found online and can be printed and filled out at home.
2-2. Draft your notice of appeal.
The notice of appeal is a straightforward document and does not require any legal knowledge. In general, the notice for will ask for the following information:
The name of the court that issued the judgment you are appealing;
The trial court case number and case name;
Your personal information;
Whether this is a first appeal or some other appeal;
The judgment you are appealing; and
Whether you are asking for a copy of the record.
2-3. Make at least two copies of your notice.
Before moving forward, be sure you make a copy of the notice for yourself and another copy to serve on the other party. The original notice of appeal will be for the court.
2-4. Serve the notice on the other party.
Take one of the copies you made and serve it on the other party, either in person or through the mail. If you are having your notice served in person, you must have someone other than yourself complete the task. You can ask the sheriff or a private server to do so. If you are serving the other party through the mail, send it to that party's residence, place of business, and to their attorney (if they have one).
2-5. File the notice of appeal.
Once the other party has been served, you will file the original notice of appeal, along with proof of service, to the court clerk. The clerk will look over your documents and stamp them as "filed."
When you file your notice of appeal, you will be required to pay a filing fee. The filing fee in California can be as much as $775.00. If you cannot afford the filing fee, you can ask the court for a waiver. If you already obtained a fee waiver for your fees associated with your case at the trial level, simply include that fee waiver with the notice of appeal and your fees will be waived.
3. Preparing the Record For Appeal
3-1. Look at your briefing schedule.
Once you decide to appeal a case and file a Notice of Appeal, you will receive a schedule for the rest of the process. This schedule will include dates for all of the hearings and dates that briefs are due.
As the “appellant” or “petitioner,” you are the one bringing the appeal and will therefore file the first brief. The other party, the “respondent,” will file the response brief.
To make sure that you do not miss important deadlines, you may want to place any important dates on your calendar.
3-2. Read the appellate rules.
Before you start preparing for your appeal, you need to read the rules that will govern your appeal. Each state has their own appellate rules that dictate how the process will unfold. The rules will explain how your appeal should look, the color of your brief cover, and how to cite to legal authorities.
Appellate rules can cover things as small as the required font size, page limits, and the number of copies you need.
Most appellate rules can be found online at your court's website. For example, in California, the court website has a link to the California Code of Civil Procedure and the California Rules of Court.
3-3. Find a practice manual.
In addition to reading the rules of the court, find a practice manual to help get you through the process. A practice manual is a book geared towards helping licensed lawyers handle certain tasks. Go to your local law library and find a practice guide on appellate advocacy. These types of guides can often provide you with all the information you need to successfully file and argue your appeal.
3-4. Designate the record.
Since the appellate judges will base their decision only off of what is contained within the trial court records, you will need to gather all the documents necessary to allow the judge to rule on your appeal. To designate the record, you will need to fill out a designation form.
A designation form simply asks you to identify the documents you will be including in the record. Therefore, it is important to locate all the documents available from the trial court and to review them to determine if they will be helpful.
You must designate the record within a certain period of time after filing your notice of appeal. In California, you must designate the record within 10 days after filing your notice of appeal. 10 days is a short period of time so be prepared to spend long hours looking through documents to determine what you want to include in the record.
3-5. Prepare a record of the documents.
To gather a record of the documents presented with the trial court, all you need to do is request a copy of the clerk's transcript. You will request a copy of the clerk's transcript when you fill out the designation form.
The transcript will not include any exhibits unless you ask for them (designate them).
There is usually a fee for requesting the clerk's transcript. In some cases, it can cost as much as $1,000 to request and receive a copy. If you cannot afford the fee, you can ask for a fee waiver in the same manner as when you filed your notice of appeal.
3-6. Prepare a record of oral proceedings.
In addition to the clerk's transcript, which only includes documents that were filed with the trial court, you can also prepare a copy of what was said in the trial court proceedings. To do so, you simply need to request a copy of the reporter's transcript, which is done on the designation form.
There is usually a fee for requesting the reporter's transcript. If you cannot afford the fee, you can ask for a fee waiver in the same manner as when you filed your notice of appeal.
4. Drafting the Appeal
4-1. Follow all court rules to the letter.
After the appellate court files the record on appeal, which means the court has chosen the record based on what both parties requested in their designation forms, it will be time to write your brief. A brief is your written description of the facts of the case, the law that applies, and your arguments about the issues on appeal. Each court has specific rules about the content, format, and length of your brief. If you do not follow these rules, the clerk of courts may refuse to file it and return it to you.
4-2. Perform legal research.
Attorneys spend years learning how to research and craft arguments. If you decide to proceed without a lawyer, you will have to find legal authority as best you can. Every argument made to an appellate court must be based on the law. The court will not consider arguments that appeal only to common sense.
Go to your public law library. Often courthouses will have a library for public use. Some law schools may also open up their libraries to the public.
Find the Reporters for your state. The Reporters are bound volumes of case decisions. They will be stored on a shelf. Either at the beginning or the end of the row of volumes will be an index. The index will tell you which reporters to look into depending on subject matter.
Read up on cases involving the issue you are raising on appeal. Try and find cases that discuss the same issues you are bringing up, then try and compare or contrast your case to the cases you are finding.
Do online research. Some states may have cases published online. Visit the website for your state’s Supreme Court. If they are publishing opinions online, there should be a link from that website to the opinions.
4-3. Learn citation format.
When you cite a case, you need to cite the case name and then the information of the reporter from which you got the case. You also need to include the page which states the point you are citing the case for.
For example, a case citation might look like this: Jones v. Bethencourt, 253 S.W.2d 455 (Ky. 1997).
In the example, the case name comes first, in italics. You can find the case name from reading the opinion; it should be the first thing stated. “253” is the volume of the reporter. “S.W.” is the name of the reporter, with “2d” designating its second edition. “455” is the page number of the legal rule you cited. In the parentheses, you list the court (here, the Kentucky Supreme Court) and the year the case was decided.
There are many variants, depending on whether you are citing a statute, an intermediate appellate court, or a federal court. To get a better handle on these many variations, simply read the opinions. Appellate courts cite to other cases in their opinions. You should follow as best as you can their citation format.
4-4. Draft your appeal.
Your brief needs to conform to all of the format and style requirements found in your court's rules, and also must:
Identify the type of case you are appealing. For example, if you are appealing a tort case finding you liable for negligence, say so.
Specify the judgment you are appealing. Make sure you include the name of the trial case and that case number so the appellate court can identify the trial court ruling.
State that the judgment is final and appealable.
Explain the standard of review. Depending on the type of case you are appealing, and what the issues are on appeal, the appellate court will use one of three standards of review.
The abuse of discretion standard, which is used when you are appealing the judge's use of discretion.
The substantial evidence standard, which is used when you think the trial court did not have enough evidence to rule on an issue in the manner the court did.
The de novo standard, which is used when an appellate court is reviewing only questions of law.
Include a brief summary of the most important facts in your case. You must stick to facts readily available in the record that has been created. Do not add facts that are not in the record.
You should actually support each reference to a fact with a citation to the record. This will help the appellate court make sense of your argument.
Make your legal arguments. When you do so, support each of your points with coherent arguments and a citation to some legal authority.
Indicate the relief you want.
4-5. File your brief.
When your brief is completed, it needs to be filed with both the trial court where your first case was heard, and also the appellate court that will be hearing your appeal. You must also make sure the other party receives a copy of your brief as well.
There is usually no fee required when you file your brief.
4-6. Read the other party's response.
After you give your brief to the other party, they will have an opportunity to respond by submitting their own brief. The other party's brief has to respond to the issues raised in your brief and explain why the trial court's decision should be upheld.
4-7. Draft a reply.
If you want, you can reply to the other party's brief by submitting a reply brief. This is optional and your reply can only raise issues brought up by the other party.
5. Arguing Your Appeal
5-1. Request oral arguments.
Oral arguments give you an opportunity to explain your case further to the appellate judges. It can also give you the opportunity to answer any questions the judges may have of you. However, oral arguments are not required and you can waive them if you want. To request an oral argument, return the form requesting one when you receive it from the court. The oral argument request form should come after all briefs have been filed.
Oral arguments are not a chance for you to read a prepared statement or restate what has already been told in your brief.
An oral argument is your chance to clarify your brief, tell the judges what you think i most important, and to answer questions.
5-2. Prepare for oral arguments.
If you have requested an oral argument and that request has been granted, you will need to prepare vigorously in order to competently argue in front of the court. To prepare:
Check the laws you referred to in your brief and make sure nothing has changed.
Review the record and make sure you know it inside and out. The appellate judges may ask you questions about anything in the record and you need to be prepared to answer.
Prepare your key points in outline form. Do not become to rigid in your performance because you never know when a judge will interrupt you with a question.
Practice your oral argument with someone and have them interrupt you. This will help you get an idea of what it is like to speak in front of a panel of appellate judges.
5-3. Argue your appeal.
Start your oral argument with the phrase, "May it please the court." Directly after stating that phrase, let the court know if you want to save some of your time for rebuttal.
Oral arguments will be limited to somewhere between 15 and 20 minutes so be sure you save time if you want to respond to what the other party says in their oral argument. You will then start your routine until you are interrupted. If this happens, stay calm and answer the questions asked as best as possible. If you do not know an answer, tell them.Remember not to discuss anything that is not in your brief or in the record.
6. Taking Next Steps
6-1. Read the opinion.
Appellate courts almost always publish an opinion after they decide a case. You or your attorney will receive a copy. In the opinion, the court should discuss why it has accepted or rejected your arguments.
6-2. Consider another appeal.
If you lose, you have the option of asking the full appellate court (usually 9 or more judges) to reconsider the case. You also could appeal to the next higher court—all the way up to the Supreme Court of your state or the Supreme Court of the United States, depending on your case.
However, the highest courts (either state or federal) usually can choose to take cases and are not required to take appeals. Therefore, even if you do continue to appeal, prepare yourself for the court declining to hear your case.
It is also highly unlikely that you can get an appeal reversed. If you have been proceeding pro se, you should meet with an attorney to discuss whether a second appeal is even worthwhile.
6-3. Comply with the court’s order.
If you win, the order of summary judgment will be reversed and the case will be sent back to the trial court for trial.
If you lose, then the trial court’s judgment against you will stand.
6-4. Consider settling the case.
If you win your appeal, you should consider trying to negotiate a favorable settlement with the opposing party instead of proceeding to trial. The opposing party will probably be more willing to settle in a way that is favorable to you.
Additionally, even if you won your appeal, keep in mind that proceeding to trial is a risk and you could lose, regardless of whether you won the appeal or not.
Warnings
Carefully consider if your appeal will be in good faith. If a judge finds that you are appealing a judgment without merit and that your only intention is to delay judgment, he or she can assess you with damages for the other party's expenses.
Before you invest in the filing fee and transcript costs, consider consulting with an attorney. This is one of the most complicated parts of the practice of law.

Argue your appeal.\\nStart your oral argument with the phrase, \\\"May it please the court.\\\" Directly after stating that phrase, let the court know if you want to save some of your time for rebuttal.\\n Oral arguments will be limited to somewhere between 15 and 20 minutes so be sure you save time if you want to respond to what the other party says in their oral argument. You will then start your routine until you are interrupted. If this happens, stay calm and answer the questions asked as best as possible. If you do not know an answer, tell them.Remember not to discuss anything that is not in your brief or in the record.\\n6. Taking Next Steps\\n6-1. Read the opinion.\\nAppellate courts almost always publish an opinion after they decide a case. You or your attorney will receive a copy. In the opinion, the court should discuss why it has accepted or rejected your arguments.\\n6-2. Consider another appeal.\\nIf you lose, you have the option of asking the full appellate court (usually 9 or more judges) to reconsider the case. You also could appeal to the next higher court—all the way up to the Supreme Court of your state or the Supreme Court of the United States, depending on your case.\\nHowever, the highest courts (either state or federal) usually can choose to take cases and are not required to take appeals. Therefore, even if you do continue to appeal, prepare yourself for the court declining to hear your case.\\nIt is also highly unlikely that you can get an appeal reversed. If you have been proceeding pro se, you should meet with an attorney to discuss whether a second appeal is even worthwhile.\\n6-3. Comply with the court’s order.\\nIf you win, the order of summary judgment will be reversed and the case will be sent back to the trial court for trial.\\nIf you lose, then the trial court’s judgment against you will stand.\\n6-4. Consider settling the case.\\nIf you win your appeal, you should consider trying to negotiate a favorable settlement with the opposing party instead of proceeding to trial. The opposing party will probably be more willing to settle in a way that is favorable to you.\\nAdditionally, even if you won your appeal, keep in mind that proceeding to trial is a risk and you could lose, regardless of whether you won the appeal or not.\\nWarnings\\nCarefully consider if your appeal will be in good faith. If a judge finds that you are appealing a judgment without merit and that your only intention is to delay judgment, he or she can assess you with damages for the other party's expenses.\\nBefore you invest in the filing fee and transcript costs, consider consulting with an attorney. This is one of the most complicated parts of the practice of law.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"If you have lost a case in civil court, you can challenge the court's decision through an appeal. Basically, you are asking a higher court to review the case and determine if the judge applied the law correctly. Appeals are complicated, but with work and attention to detail, it can be done without an attorney.

To answer yes, you must have been a party to the case at the trial stage. You cannot appeal on behalf of someone else, for example a friend or relative.\\nSecond, can the decision in your case be appealed? To answer yes, the trial court must have issued a final judgment. The final judgment is the decision at the end of your case that decides everything. It will usually tell you or the other party what they have to do. You cannot appeal decisions made before the final judgment; you must wait to appeal these issues once the final judgment has been issued.\\nThird, do you have time for an appeal? To answer yes, you must be able to draft and file your notice of appeal within a certain deadline. If you fail to file your notice of appeal before the deadline, your case will be dismissed and you will not be able to appeal. In California, the deadline to file your notice of appeal varies depending on the type of case you have. For example, if you are a part of a civil case involving an amount less than $25,000, you must file your notice by either:\\n30 days after you have been notified of the judgment; or\\n90 days after the entry of the judgment, whichever is sooner.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Read the judge's ruling.\", \"描述\": \"If you answered yes to all three questions, you have the right to appeal.

1,814 | How to Appeal a License Suspension | 1. Deciding to File an Appeal
1-1. Determine why your license are suspended.
The Department of Motor Vehicles (the “DMV," also known as the Bureau of Motor Vehicles or Department of Transportation in some states) should have mailed you a suspension letter stating the reason for the suspension. If you never received such a letter or have misplaced it, call the DMV in your state or check the DMV's website for a database that you can search to find your license information and reason for suspension. You can find links to each state's DMV website here. Common reasons for suspension include:
Accumulating too many points on your driving record
Getting multiple traffic violations or speeding tickets
Getting a DUI/DWI
Failing to appear in court or pay fees
Failing to pay child support
1-2. Determine whether an appeal is available to you.
In some cases, such as automatic pretrial suspensions for driving under the influence (“DUI”), you may not have the right to appeal. In any case, you need to request an appeal within the statutorily-prescribed deadline. For example, appeals in Georgia must be submitted within 10 days of the effective date of suspension. If you are not eligible for an appeal or have missed the deadline, you may need to temporarily live with the suspension. To determine if an appeal is available to you:
Check your DMV's website for information about appealing a suspension.
Look for information about appeals in the letter you received informing you of the suspension.
Call your local DMV and ask about the appeals process.
Contact an attorney. Many attorneys provide free consultations.
1-3. Consider alternatives to an appeal.
If your license has been suspended, the court will specify how you can get your license back. You may simply be required to refrain from driving for a period of time, or you may be able to get your license back more quickly by taking a driving course or traffic school, paying a reinstatement fee, or asking your insurance company to file an SR-22 or FR-44 form (which proves that you carry insurance).
For certain suspensions and revocations, you may be able to request a "hardship" or "probationary" license that allows you to drive in limited situations, such as driving for work, attending drug and alcohol programs, or for medical treatment. Contact your local DMV office to find out whether your state offers hardship licenses.
2. Filing an Appeal
2-1. Determine where to file your appeal.
Usually, you must file an appeal with the appropriate "administrative agency" instead of a court. For example, in Arizona, appeals are heard by the Arizona Motor Vehicle Administration.
If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your administrative hearing, you can appeal in court. However, because appeals require an argument that administrative decision misinterpreted the law, you should consider hiring an attorney to handle a complicated case.
2-2. Request a hearing.
All states have a specific procedure for requesting an administrative hearing. Once you submit your request, the agency will contact you and give you a hearing date. Some states use specific forms for requesting a hearing, while others accept more informal emailed or written requests.
For example, in Alabama, there is no form for requesting a hearing. You must make your request by mail or email and include your name, date of birth, and driver's license number.
For comparison, Arizona requires that you request a hearing by filling out this Hearing Request form and mail it to the included address.
2-3. Prepare for your hearing.
An administrative hearing is an informal trial. You will have the opportunity to present evidence, including documents and sworn testimony. At the beginning, you can make an opening statement explaining to the administrative law judge what you believe the evidence will show. At the end, you can make a closing argument explaining why you think the judge should rule in your favor.
To prepare for your hearing, gather any documents that support your claim that your license should not be suspended. Also contact any witnesses who can testify on your behalf and arrange for them to attend the hearing with you.
Be prepared to clearly argue why your license should not have been suspended. Did the DMV or court misunderstand the facts of your situation? Did they misinterpret the law? Make sure you understand what facts and law they relied upon before you address why those facts or law were inaccurately applied.
2-4. Observe another hearing first.
You may be able to attend another person's public hearing as an observer. Upon entering the hearing room, inform the administrative law judge that you are there to observe the proceedings. Watch quietly and take note of what the participants did well and what could have been done better.

1,815 | How to Appeal a Speeding Ticket | 1. Talking Your Way out of a Ticket
1-1. Be polite.
The police officer has all of the power over whether or not to issue a ticket. It is in your best interest to be polite.
Making small talk can also humanize you to the officer. Ask officers how they are doing today, and answer any questions in a friendly manner.
Flirting, however, is counterproductive. Officers report that they feel insulted when drivers think they can get out of a ticket by flirting.
1-2. Follow all directions.
Be as easy to deal with as possible. The less difficulty you create for the officer, the more likely it is that he won’t remember much about you. If you have to contest the ticket later, at trial, then you could benefit if the officer can’t remember anything about you.
1-3. Don’t admit that you were speeding.
Also don’t deny it. If the officer asks if you know why you were stopped, you shouldn’t say, “I was speeding.” However, you can escalate tensions if an officer tells you that you were speeding and you try to deny it.
When the officer tells you that you were speeding, stay quiet or say, “Oh…” or something equally non-committal.
1-4. Ask that the officer not give you a ticket.
You can politely ask the officer to give you a warning instead of a ticket. All you need to say is, “Would you consider giving me a warning?”
If a polite request doesn’t work, remain quiet. Anything you say will be written down in the notes section of the speeding ticket. Angry, sarcastic statements can only serve to hurt you later on. Those types of comments can motivate an officer to show up at a trial to make sure you are found guilty.
However, you should be sure to ask at some point what technology the officer used to gauge your speed. Typically, cops measure speed with the use of radar, laser, or some other technology.
1-5. Document the facts.
If you plan on appealing your ticket, then you will need to document the facts surrounding your speeding ticket. Write down your speed, the weather conditions, and the speed limit where you were issued the ticket. Also note whether or not you were driving in moderate or heavy traffic, or if you were the only car on the road.
Write this information down as soon as possible while it is fresh in your mind. This way, you will be sure to have correct information.
2. Appealing a Speeding Ticket
2-1. Attend your hearing.
At the initial hearing, you will not argue your case but will instead plead “guilty” or “not guilty.” After you plead “not guilty,” the judge will schedule the trial date.
You should dress nicely to attend the hearing, because you will probably be appearing in front of the same judge who will preside over your trial. Business casual (a pressed dress shirt and dress pants) is acceptable attire.
In some situations, you can get out of your speeding ticket without going to trial. For example, in some states, if you have never gotten a ticket before then you are eligible for traffic school if you show up to your hearing.
Also, if you were ticketed because you did not have proof of insurance in your car, then many courts will allow you to get out of the ticket if you present your proof of insurance before your hearing date.
2-2. Understand the prosecutor’s case.
Principally, you will want to understand how the police officer judged that you were speeding. The most common methods of gauging speed are “pacing,” radar, laser, and VASCAR (Visual Average Speed Computer and Recorder). Each are vulnerable to different criticisms:
Pacing. Here, the officer gauges your speed by following behind you for a length of time to judge how fast you are going. You can attempt to discredit this speed reading by pointing out the officer was too far back to adequately follow you at a consistent speed, or that hills, curves, and traffic lights prevented the officer from following you for a sufficient length of time.
Radar. This technology uses radio waves which reflect off a car and then are picked up by a receiver. Radar speed readings are vulnerable to certain challenges. For example, radio waves can hit more than one car, or there may be problems with the radar’s calibration. Also, rain, wind, and storm clouds can send back erroneous speed readings.
Laser. Laser technology sends 40 beams of light over the course of a second toward the vehicle. The rate at which the light reflects back translates into the speed the car is going. One weakness with laser technology is that all of the beams need to hit the same spot on the car. Also, like radar, light beams could reflect off other cars.
VASCAR technology. This fancy name is used for a very simple technology of measuring speed. Here, the officer measures the distance between two points (say a telephone pole and mailbox). Then, the officer uses a stopwatch to measure the amount of time it takes you to pass from one point to the other. The time will then be mathematically adjusted to produce a miles-per-hour reading. VASCAR measurement is obviously vulnerable to claims of human error: the officer didn’t start and stop the stopwatch accurately or did not accurately perceive when you crossed one of the markers.
2-3. Gather evidence for trial.
After you have been assigned a trial date, you should begin crafting your defense. Crucial to your success will be evidence to present at trial. If you want evidence from the state, ask the court clerk how to make a discovery motion.
You can also request a copy of the prosecutor's evidence. The evidence file may include the officer's notes, a video of the traffic stop, or a drawing depicting the scene. You should know what evidence the prosecutor will present.
Also request the operator’s manual for whatever form of technology was used to track your speed. These manuals are written for police to use and often include information about potential flaws or problems with the technology. You can then quote the language to the court during your trial as you try to cast doubt on the credibility of the speed reading.
2-4. Contact witnesses for trial.
Ask witnesses if you appeared to be going the same speed as other cars, or if you were passing them. The most likely witness is someone who was in the car with you when you were stopped.
You might want to remind them of the trial date so that they will be sure to attend.
2-5. Postpone the trial for as long as possible.
By postponing the trial, you increase the likelihood that the officer will forget about you and not show up in court. Judges will drop the case if the officer doesn’t show.
Ask the court clerk how many times you can request a delay, and how many days before the trial you need to make the request. State law varies.
Also call the police department and try to find out when the officer is taking a vacation. If you can time things just right, you can push a trial off until the officer is away on vacation.
2-6. Attend your trial.
Arrive on time and in conservative attire. Have any documents prepared to use at trial. The notes you took immediately after being stopped is good evidence.
2-7. Challenge the determination of speed.
Depending on the technology used to gauge your speed, you can challenge it on the grounds stated above. Also, you can ask the officer how much training he or she had with the technology. Asking this question helps cast doubt on the officer’s ability to use the technology properly, and any technology is only as good as the person using it.
2-8. Challenge the officer’s identification of your car.
You may also argue that the officer didn’t identify the right car. If you were driving in moderate or heavy traffic, you could argue that the officer used the radar or laser on the wrong car.
You can ask leading questions to rattle the officer. If your car is blue, ask “Did you see the other blue car in front of me?” This might fluster the officer.
2-9. Request that the case be dismissed, if possible.
At the close of evidence, you should argue that the government has not established that you were speeding. Be specific and point to limitations in the state’s case. For example, the fact that an officer received only a half hour of training to use radar technology casts doubt on whether the technology was used accurately.
Also, if the ticketing officer does not show up to the trial, you have the right of dismissal.
2-10. Wait for the verdict.
If you are found not guilty or the case is dismissed, you do not have to pay the ticket. If you are found guilty, you will have to pay the fine listed on the speeding ticket, plus court costs.
Be sure to call ahead and ask how you can pay your fine. Be sure to bring an acceptable method of payment (credit card, personal check, cash).
Tips
Keep in mind that the procedure in municipal courts will vary depending on your state and county.
Understand that traffic tickets are civil violations. Accordingly, although you will have some type of opportunity to fight the ticket in court, you will not have the full protections afforded a criminal defendant. For example, you do not have the right to an attorney.

1,816 | How to Appeal a Summary Judgment | 1. Deciding Whether to Appeal
1-1. Understand the requirements for an appeal.
You may only appeal a final order. A final order ends the litigation and leaves nothing else to do in the trial court. Therefore, if the judge denies a motion for summary judgment, you cannot appeal because the case has not ended.
1-2. Read the judge’s ruling.
If the judge grants your opponent’s motion, you have lost the case and may be liable to him or her for damages. Because the case has “ended” and will not proceed to trial, you may immediately appeal the court’s decision. In order to appeal successfully, you need to identify why the judge ruled as she did.
A “motion for summary judgment” typically argues that even if all of the facts of the case (as stated in the complaint) were true, the plaintiff will still be unable to recover damages. Therefore, if the court grants a “motion for summary judgement” for a defendant, the court is essentially saying the plaintiff’s facts will not allow recovery.
Alternatively, the court could grant summary judgment for the plaintiff. In this situation, the court is saying that the defendant cannot show that there is a triable issue.
1-3. Find if an exception exists.
A few states have a procedure where you can “ask” the state supreme court to hear an appeal on a summary judgment motion, if the motion involves a “controlling question of law for which there is a substantial ground for difference of opinion.”
Another exception exists where the judge partially grants the motion for summary judgment. If the court grants the motion and dismisses the causes of action that have damages (i.e., essentially leaving you with no reason to proceed, even though there are a few causes left), you should try to appeal.
In this situation, you would ask the trial court to “stay” the litigation while you appeal the dismissed causes of action.
1-4. Review your evidence.
In order to successfully appeal, you will have to show that an issue of material fact exists for the jury to decide. You should review the motions for summary judgment as well as the court’s written order.
You cannot present new evidence on appeal. However, the trial court may have overlooked evidence that you pointed out in your motion to oppose summary judgment. If you bring this information to the appellate court’s attention, then you could get the summary judgment reversed.
Read the judge’s written order closely and identify any evidence that the judge did not discuss.
1-5. Consider the costs of an appeal.
Between the filing fees, court fees, fees for getting materials to the appeals court, and fees for consulting an attorney, filing an appeal can be very expensive.
An appeal also takes up a lot of time. You will be doing lots of legal research, writing a legal brief, and preparing to argue in front of the court.
An appeal can also cause stress on you and your loved ones, and can extend the litigation for many years in some cases.
Appellate court costs typically exceed those of the trial court. For example, in California a notice of appeal is $775. It is not unusual for court transcripts to exceed $1,000. Some states have fee waivers in civil cases for individuals with low incomes (most notably California). If you received a fee waiver for your trial court case you should be eligible for one in the appeals courts.
2. Filing a Notice of Appeal
2-1. Find the deadline.
There are strict time limits for filing appeals. The time limit will depend on the court, but typically the clock starts running as soon as soon as the court enters the final judgment.
You will receive a “Notice of Entry of Final Judgment.” After the judgment has been entered, you typically have between 10 and 30 days to file a notice of appeal.
The deadlines vary widely according to the state you practice in, the court you are appealing to, and in some circumstances, the type of case.
You should begin planning your appeal as soon as the judge issues an oral order granting the summary judgment. Do not wait until you receive the Notice of Entry of Final Judgment.
2-2. Find a form.
A Notice of Appeal is a very brief, simple document that simply informs your opponent and the court that you are going to appeal the judgment. Many courts provide a Notice of Appeal form, which requires you to fill in the blanks or check off boxes. After you receive your Notice of Entry of Final Judgment, you should ask the court clerk if a form exists.
You should not use forms from a different court. Courts do not want forms from other jurisdictions.
Later, if you change your mind, you can withdraw the Notice.
2-3. Draft a Notice of Appeal.
If the court doesn’t have a form, then you will have to draft a Notice of Appeal. Search around the internet for samples that have been filed in your court. If you can’t find one, then you can draft one in a few steps.
Insert a caption. The caption is the information at the top of the pleadings, listing the court, the parties, the judge, and the case number. You can copy this information off any pleading filed in the case.
Two lines beneath the caption center “NOTICE OF APPEAL” in all caps. Bold it.
Two lines beneath this, type the body: “I, [insert name], in the above captioned action do appeal to the [insert name of the appellate court] from the judgment entered against me on [insert the date of the Notice of Final Judgment] by the [insert name of trial court] and do hereby move that the judgment be reversed and the case be sent back to the lower court for trial.”
Insert a signature block and sign. Underneath the signature block, include your name and contact information, just as you have for all pleadings you filed in the court up to this point.
Attach a certificate of service. Underneath the signature, center “CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE” in caps, all bold. Then type out: “I hereby certify on [insert the date] that I did cause to be served on the parties in this case this Notice of Appeal by [mail or a process server] to the address listed below.” Then list the parties, including their addresses, and sign and date it.
2-4. File the Notice of Appeal.
Take the Notice of Appeal to the courthouse. You will then file the Notice with the court clerk.
You must pay a fee. If you cannot afford it, you should be able to get a fee waiver for the filing fees. Ask the court clerk for the form.
Keep multiple copies for yourself. Make sure that all copies are time-stamped by the clerk.
You may also have to file a copy of the Notice of Appeal in the appellate court as well. As the clerk if this is the procedure in your state.
2-5. Serve the Notice on the other party.
You must notify the other party that you are filing an appeal. You can have the Notice served either using the sheriff, a private process server, or by mail.
You should serve it in the same manner that you served notice of the pleadings in your case up to this point.
2-6. File a docketing statement.
In the appellate court, you must file what is called a “docketing statement.” Often, the court will have a “fill in the blank” form. Typically, it asks for the caption information, the names of the judges who considered the motion that is on appeal, the nature of the appeal, and a short statement of the appealable issues.
You must file this quickly. You often only have a week or so to file after filing the Notice of Appeal. Ideally, you should locate and complete this form at the same time as your Notice of Appeal.
The docketing statement must also be served on the other party.
3. Preparing the Record for Appeal
3-1. Look over the briefing schedule.
Once you decide to appeal a case and file a Notice of Appeal, you will receive a schedule for the rest of the process. This schedule will include dates for all of the hearings and dates that briefs are due.
As the “appellant” or “petitioner,” you are the one bringing the appeal and will therefore file the first brief. The other party, the “respondent,” will file the response brief.
To make sure that you do not miss important deadlines, you may want to place any important dates on your calendar.
3-2. Read the appellate rules.
All courts of appeals have their own procedures and rules, so make sure that you understand the rules of the court that you are appealing to. The rules will explain how your appeal should look, the color of the cover, and how you should cite to legal authority. You will want to know the specific rules for the appellate court.
Rules can cover everything from page limits, font size and type, the color of paper the brief is printed on, and what parts must be included in the brief.
Appellate rules are often posted online. Call the clerk of the appellate court and ask if you can have a copy. The clerk should point you in the right direction.
3-3. Find an appellate practice manual.
Many state bar associations publish practice manuals to help litigants prepare appeals.
Search for one in your state by typing “appeal manual pro se” and your state into a search engine. You may also call your state bar association and ask if they have one.
Read these manuals cover to cover. Drafted by practicing appellate attorneys, they provide helpful information for how to write briefs and meet the deadlines in your state. They typically include many sample motions you can use as templates.
3-4. Order transcripts.
Because appellate courts do not hear any new evidence, you must prepare a written record for them to use as the basis for their decision. If you are appealing a motion for summary judgment, this record will include all of the documents that were submitted to the court in preparation for the motion.
Some documents that should be included are the complaint, the answer, any documents that were given to the court to support the complaint or answer, and both parties’ motions for summary judgment.
Also include any transcript of a hearing that was held on the motion for summary judgment.
Obtaining this record usually costs money, so make sure that you check for any fees before filing your appeal.
3-5. Order the record on appeal.
The complete record includes not only the transcripts but also the pleadings and motions. It is typically assembled by the clerk of court.
You must order the record on appeal within a certain amount of time, often within 14 days.
The court clerk often has a form that you can fill out. If not, put your request in writing and take it to the court clerk. Simply write: “A notice of appeal was filed in [insert case number]. I hereby request that you prepare the record of appeal for filing in the appellate court. There will be transcripts of the proceedings which I have ordered from the court reporter and will file when available. [Insert any information about exhibits that you want included in the record.] Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, [your name].”
You will have to pay a preparation fee, which varies by court.
3-6. File the transcripts.
Once you have ordered all of the transcripts, you must file them in court. The court you file in may differ from state to state, but typically you will file them in the trial court.
The certification process varies. For example, in some courts the transcript will be given to the judge, who then signs the certification. In other courts, the parties all are afforded the opportunity to inspect the record and lodge objections if they think something is inaccurate. If no objections are made, then you can file the transcript. If there is a disagreement, the judge must then look at the transcript and certify it for accuracy.
You must give notice to the other party when you file. A standard Notice of Filing is very easy. If there isn’t a form Notice, then simply open a blank word processing document. Insert the name of the court at the top and then include the caption. The caption can be pulled from any document filed in the case.
Then, center the words “NOTICE OF FILING” in all caps, bolded. Two lines underneath, type the names and addresses of the other party including his or her attorneys. Then type, “Please take notice that on [insert date] the undersigned filed the certified transcripts with the clerk of the [insert name of the trial court].” Then insert signature block and sign.
Append a Certificate of Service at the bottom.
3-7. Send the record to the appellate court.
Once the entire record has been assembled, you must send it to the appellate court, meeting all deadlines.
You must also file a Notice of Filing to the other party. You can use the Notice of Filing that you filed when you filed the transcripts, but tweak it. Change the name of the court to the appellate court at the top of the Notice and in the body.
4. Drafting the Appeal
4-1. Reread your motion in opposition to summary judgment.
If you filed a motion opposing summary judgment in the trial court, then you already should have a basic grasp of making legal arguments and performing legal research. In the trial court, you pointed out disputed factual issues and how the law did not command summary judgment for the other party. You will renew these arguments on appeal.
If you only made an oral motion in trial court, then you will have to learn how to perform legal research and write legal arguments for the appellate brief.
4-2. Perform legal research.
Attorneys spend years learning how to research and craft arguments. If you decide to proceed without a lawyer, you will have to find legal authority as best you can. Every argument made to an appellate court must be based on the law. The court will not consider arguments that appeal only to common sense.
Try to find a public law library. Often courthouses will have a library for public use. Some law schools may also open up their libraries to the public.
Find the Reporters for your state. The Reporters are bound volumes of case decisions. They will be stored on a shelf. Either at the beginning or the end of the row of volumes will be an index. The index will tell you which reporters to look into depending on subject matter.
Read up on cases involving “summary judgment” and whatever the basis of your lawsuit was. If the lawsuit is a breach of contract suit, look up “breach of contract.”
Do online research. Some states may have cases published online. Visit the website for your state’s Supreme Court. If they are publishing opinions online, there should be a link from that website to the opinions.
4-3. Photocopy cases.
If you find a case that sounds similar to your case, be sure to photocopy it or (if it is online) print it off. You will need to cite cases when you write your brief.
4-4. Learn citation format as best you can.
When you cite a case, you need to cite the case name and then the information of the reporter from which you got the case. You also need to include the page which states the point you are citing the case for.
For example, a case citation might look like this: Richardson v. Carlyle, 233 S.W.2d 455 (Ky. 1997).
In the example, the case name comes first, in italics. You can find the case name from reading the opinion; it should be the first thing stated. “233” is the volume of the reporter. “S.W.” is the name of the reporter, with “2d” designating its second edition. “455” is the page number of the legal rule you cited. In the parentheses, you list the court (here, the Kentucky Supreme Court) and the year the case was decided.
There are many variants, depending on whether you are citing a statute, an intermediate appellate court, or a federal court. To get a better handle on these many variations, simply read the opinions. Appellate courts cite to other cases in their opinions. You should follow as best as you can their citation format.
4-5. Craft the issue presented.
On appeal from a motion for summary judgment, the issue presented will be something like: “Whether the trial court appropriately granted summary judgment when numerous issues of material fact are in dispute.”
4-6. Draft a statement of facts.
The statement of facts is a couple of pages (or less) that lays out the facts surrounding the lawsuit. You must draw facts only from the record that was prepared and filed on appeal. You cannot supplement the record with facts from outside the record.
Start at the beginning. If the lawsuit is a contract dispute, state the relevant facts about when the parties met, what they bargained for, the timeline for performance, and who did not perform. Include the dates when these events occurred.
If the lawsuit is a personal injury lawsuit resulting from a traffic accident, you could begin by describing the scene of the accident (if this information is in the record).
Do not argue in the statement of facts. Avoid language like “negligent,” “unreasonable,” or other legal conclusions like “breach” or “violated the law.”
Always cite each fact to the record. These citations help the judges find what you are referring to. Put the citation in parentheses right after the fact: “The seat belt failed and broke at the clasp. (R. 27.)” Here “R” refers to record.
4-7. Explain the standard of review.
On an appeal for summary judgment, the standard of review is “de novo.” This means the appellate court has to extend no deference to the trial court’s decision.
Write: “On an appeal of the granting of summary judgment, this court reviews the trial court’s ruling de novo.” Then cite a case from your state for this proposition.
4-8. Draft your argument.
Summary judgment is granted because the trial court believed that there were no issues of material fact in dispute and that the law, when applied to the facts, warranted judgment to the party who moved for summary judgment (typically the defendant). Therefore, your job on appeal is to argue either that (1) there are factual issues that are disputed that call for a trial and/or (2) that the law does not clearly mandate a decision for the party who moved for summary judgment.
When you read the trial court’s order, you should have identified factual evidence the judge did not consider. Now emphasize in your appeal that the court didn’t even consider this evidence. Be sure to cite to either the order or to the statements made by the judge in the transcripts to support your point.
If you filed a motion in opposition to summary judgment in the trial court, you can use the arguments there as a guide. They will be the same arguments—why you believe summary judgment is not appropriate.
4-9. Write a short conclusion.
The conclusion can be cursory. It can merely state, “For the foregoing reasons, the appellants asks that this Court reverse the judgment for summary judgment.”
4-10. Append a certificate of compliance.
You must certify that you have followed all of the court’s rules in your brief. The court should have a form that you can use as a guide.
A form is often included in the court rules. These are the rules you must certify as having followed.
4-11. Follow all court rules to the letter.
If the court limits the number of words, do not go over. If they want a cover to look a certain way, follow their directions. Briefs that do not comply with rules will be rejected.
If you have a particularly strong case, consider hiring an attorney so you don’t lose simply because you did not comply with the court’s procedural rules.
4-12. File the appellate brief.
You will have to provide the court with a specific number of copies of the brief. The specific number will be in the rules.
You must also serve a copy on the other party along with a Notice of Filing. The Notice of Filing may have to be notarized.
4-13. Read the other party’s response.
The respondent will argue that summary judgment was properly granted. Read the brief closely and see if the respondent rebuts all of our arguments. If she ignores one or more of your arguments, then that is strong evidence that she doesn’t have a good response.
On a sheet of paper list all of your arguments and then try to match up the respondent’s counter-arguments.
Now come up with arguments to rebut all of the respondent’s counter-arguments. Go through the record and find evidence to support your contentions.
4-14. Draft a possible reply.
The appellate court may allow you to reply briefly to the respondent’s arguments. This brief should be much shorter and will stick to rebutting the specific points made in the response brief.
You do not have to draft a reply brief. You should do so if the respondent made an argument that you didn’t address in your opening brief.
5. Arguing Your Appeal
5-1. Ask for argument if you want it.
You have the option to request oral argument. If it is granted, you will argue before a panel of judges. Usually, appellate courts have 3 judges who hear each appeal.
Even if you request oral argument, courts frequently deny it. Instead, the court will decide the outcome of the case by simply reading the briefs and looking at the record.
If you do argue in front of the court, you typically will have between 12 and 30 minutes to make arguments about why you should win the appeal.
If you have an attorney, she will probably request oral argument. If you are proceeding pro se, then you might not want to argue. Oral arguments require intense preparation and knowledge of the law.
5-2. Prepare for oral argument.
Should you request and be granted oral argument, you will need to prepare. Your argument should focus on the points that you set out in your brief, focusing on what you think are your strongest points. The judges will be able to ask you any questions that they want related to your case.
The most important thing you can do to prepare is come up with a list of questions. Read the respondent’s brief and note the arguments made. Then write out your responses. Your responses will probably sound similar to the arguments you made in your brief.
For example, if the respondent argues that you never presented evidence that there was a contract, then you will need to mention the evidence in the record that supports the existence of a contract.
Practice your answers with friends. Have them pretend to be judges.
5-3. Watch oral argument.
To get an idea of what to expect, you can attend oral arguments at the courthouse. Watch how the attorneys comport themselves and how they answer questions.
5-4. Argue your appeal.
Be sure to speak slowly and always call the judge “Your Honor” or “Judge.” Begin right off with your request and your arguments.
For example, state, “We request that summary judgment be reversed because there are three triable issues of material fact.” Then start discussing those issues.
Stay calm. Though it is perfectly normal to be nervous, treat the oral argument like a discussion between you and a stranger who knows something about the case but not as much as you do.
If a judge asks a question, stop talking immediately and listen to the entire question.
Do not ask questions of judges. They are used to asking the questions, not answering them. If you don’t understand a question, try to answer it as best you can. Say something along the lines of, “If I understand the question correctly….” The judge will jump back in to clarify if he wants.
6. Taking Next Steps
6-1. Read the opinion.
Appellate courts almost always publish an opinion after they decide a case. You or your attorney will receive a copy. In the opinion, the court should discuss why it has accepted or rejected your arguments.
6-2. Consider another appeal.
If you lose, you have the option of asking the full appellate court (usually 9 or more judges) to reconsider the case. You also could appeal to the next higher court—all the way up to the Supreme Court of your state or the Supreme Court of the United States, depending on your case.
However, the highest courts (either state or federal) usually can choose to take cases and are not required to take appeals. Therefore, even if you do continue to appeal, prepare yourself for the court declining to hear your case.
It is also highly unlikely that you can get an appeal reversed. If you have been proceeding pro se, you should meet with an attorney to discuss whether a second appeal is even worthwhile.
6-3. Comply with the court’s order.
If you win, the order of summary judgment will be reversed and the case will be sent back to the trial court for trial.
If you lose, then the trial court’s judgment against you will stand.
6-4. Consider settling the case.
If you win your appeal, you should consider trying to negotiate a favorable settlement with the opposing party instead of proceeding to trial. The opposing party will probably be more willing to settle in a way that is favorable to you.
Additionally, even if you won your appeal, keep in mind that proceeding to trial is a risk and you could lose, regardless of whether you won the appeal or not.
Tips
Always double check your record to make sure that it contains everything.
Look realistically at your chances before deciding to appeal. To figure out whether you have any chance, consult an attorney.
Definitely talk with an attorney who specializes in appeals. The appellate process can be even more confusing than trials.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Deciding Whether to Appeal\\n1-1. Understand the requirements for an appeal.\\nYou may only appeal a final order. A final order ends the litigation and leaves nothing else to do in the trial court. Therefore, if the judge denies a motion for summary judgment, you cannot appeal because the case has not ended.\\n1-2. Read the judge’s ruling.\\nIf the judge grants your opponent’s motion, you have lost the case and may be liable to him or her for damages. Because the case has “ended” and will not proceed to trial, you may immediately appeal the court’s decision. In order to appeal successfully, you need to identify why the judge ruled as she did.\\nA “motion for summary judgment” typically argues that even if all of the facts of the case (as stated in the complaint) were true, the plaintiff will still be unable to recover damages. Therefore, if the court grants a “motion for summary judgement” for a defendant, the court is essentially saying the plaintiff’s facts will not allow recovery.\\nAlternatively, the court could grant summary judgment for the plaintiff. In this situation, the court is saying that the defendant cannot show that there is a triable issue.\\n1-3. Find if an exception exists.\\nA few states have a procedure where you can “ask” the state supreme court to hear an appeal on a summary judgment motion, if the motion involves a “controlling question of law for which there is a substantial ground for difference of opinion.”\\nAnother exception exists where the judge partially grants the motion for summary judgment. If the court grants the motion and dismisses the causes of action that have damages (i.e., essentially leaving you with no reason to proceed, even though there are a few causes left), you should try to appeal.\\nIn this situation, you would ask the trial court to “stay” the litigation while you appeal the dismissed causes of action.\\n1-4.

You should review the motions for summary judgment as well as the court’s written order.\\nYou cannot present new evidence on appeal. However, the trial court may have overlooked evidence that you pointed out in your motion to oppose summary judgment.

Perform legal research.\\nAttorneys spend years learning how to research and craft arguments. If you decide to proceed without a lawyer, you will have to find legal authority as best you can. Every argument made to an appellate court must be based on the law. The court will not consider arguments that appeal only to common sense.\\nTry to find a public law library. Often courthouses will have a library for public use. Some law schools may also open up their libraries to the public.\\nFind the Reporters for your state. The Reporters are bound volumes of case decisions. They will be stored on a shelf. Either at the beginning or the end of the row of volumes will be an index. The index will tell you which reporters to look into depending on subject matter.\\nRead up on cases involving “summary judgment” and whatever the basis of your lawsuit was. If the lawsuit is a breach of contract suit, look up “breach of contract.”\\nDo online research. Some states may have cases published online. Visit the website for your state’s Supreme Court. If they are publishing opinions online, there should be a link from that website to the opinions.\\n4-3. Photocopy cases.\\nIf you find a case that sounds similar to your case, be sure to photocopy it or (if it is online) print it off. You will need to cite cases when you write your brief.\\n4-4. Learn citation format as best you can.\\nWhen you cite a case, you need to cite the case name and then the information of the reporter from which you got the case. You also need to include the page which states the point you are citing the case for.\\nFor example, a case citation might look like this: Richardson v. Carlyle, 233 S.W.2d 455 (Ky. 1997).\\nIn the example, the case name comes first, in italics. You can find the case name from reading the opinion; it should be the first thing stated. “233” is the volume of the reporter. “S.W.” is the name of the reporter, with “2d” designating its second edition. “455” is the page number of the legal rule you cited. In the parentheses, you list the court (here, the Kentucky Supreme Court) and the year the case was decided.\\nThere are many variants, depending on whether you are citing a statute, an intermediate appellate court, or a federal court. To get a better handle on these many variations, simply read the opinions. Appellate courts cite to other cases in their opinions. You should follow as best as you can their citation format.\\n4-5. Craft the issue presented.\\nOn appeal from a motion for summary judgment, the issue presented will be something like: “Whether the trial court appropriately granted summary judgment when numerous issues of material fact are in dispute.”\\n4-6. Draft a statement of facts.\\nThe statement of facts is a couple of pages (or less) that lays out the facts surrounding the lawsuit. You must draw facts only from the record that was prepared and filed on appeal. You cannot supplement the record with facts from outside the record.\\nStart at the beginning. If the lawsuit is a contract dispute, state the relevant facts about when the parties met, what they bargained for, the timeline for performance, and who did not perform. Include the dates when these events occurred.\\nIf the lawsuit is a personal injury lawsuit resulting from a traffic accident, you could begin by describing the scene of the accident (if this information is in the record).\\nDo not argue in the statement of facts. Avoid language like “negligent,” “unreasonable,” or other legal conclusions like “breach” or “violated the law.”\\nAlways cite each fact to the record. These citations help the judges find what you are referring to. Put the citation in parentheses right after the fact: “The seat belt failed and broke at the clasp. (R. 27.)” Here “R” refers to record.\\n4-7. Explain the standard of review.\\nOn an appeal for summary judgment, the standard of review is “de novo.” This means the appellate court has to extend no deference to the trial court’s decision.\\nWrite: “On an appeal of the granting of summary judgment, this court reviews the trial court’s ruling de novo.” Then cite a case from your state for this proposition.\\n4-8. Draft your argument.\\nSummary judgment is granted because the trial court believed that there were no issues of material fact in dispute and that the law, when applied to the facts, warranted judgment to the party who moved for summary judgment (typically the defendant). Therefore, your job on appeal is to argue either that (1) there are factual issues that are disputed that call for a trial and/or (2) that the law does not clearly mandate a decision for the party who moved for summary judgment.\\nWhen you read the trial court’s order, you should have identified factual evidence the judge did not consider. Now emphasize in your appeal that the court didn’t even consider this evidence. Be sure to cite to either the order or to the statements made by the judge in the transcripts to support your point.\\nIf you filed a motion in opposition to summary judgment in the trial court, you can use the arguments there as a guide. They will be the same arguments—why you believe summary judgment is not appropriate.\\n4-9. Write a short conclusion.\\nThe conclusion can be cursory. It can merely state, “For the foregoing reasons, the appellants asks that this Court reverse the judgment for summary judgment.”\\n4-10. Append a certificate of compliance.\\nYou must certify that you have followed all of the court’s rules in your brief. The court should have a form that you can use as a guide.\\nA form is often included in the court rules. These are the rules you must certify as having followed.\\n4-11. Follow all court rules to the letter.\\nIf the court limits the number of words, do not go over. If they want a cover to look a certain way, follow their directions. Briefs that do not comply with rules will be rejected.\\nIf you have a particularly strong case, consider hiring an attorney so you don’t lose simply because you did not comply with the court’s procedural rules.\\n4-12. File the appellate brief.\\nYou will have to provide the court with a specific number of copies of the brief. The specific number will be in the rules.\\nYou must also serve a copy on the other party along with a Notice of Filing. The Notice of Filing may have to be notarized.\\n4-13. Read the other party’s response.\\nThe respondent will argue that summary judgment was properly granted. Read the brief closely and see if the respondent rebuts all of our arguments. If she ignores one or more of your arguments, then that is strong evidence that she doesn’t have a good response.\\nOn a sheet of paper list all of your arguments and then try to match up the respondent’s counter-arguments.\\nNow come up with arguments to rebut all of the respondent’s counter-arguments. Go through the record and find evidence to support your contentions.\\n4-14. Draft a possible reply.\\nThe appellate court may allow you to reply briefly to the respondent’s arguments. This brief should be much shorter and will stick to rebutting the specific points made in the response brief.\\nYou do not have to draft a reply brief. You should do so if the respondent made an argument that you didn’t address in your opening brief.\\n5. Arguing Your Appeal\\n5-1. Ask for argument if you want it.\\nYou have the option to request oral argument. If it is granted, you will argue before a panel of judges. Usually, appellate courts have 3 judges who hear each appeal.\\nEven if you request oral argument, courts frequently deny it. Instead, the court will decide the outcome of the case by simply reading the briefs and looking at the record.\\nIf you do argue in front of the court, you typically will have between 12 and 30 minutes to make arguments about why you should win the appeal.\\nIf you have an attorney, she will probably request oral argument. If you are proceeding pro se, then you might not want to argue. Oral arguments require intense preparation and knowledge of the law.\\n5-2. Prepare for oral argument.\\nShould you request and be granted oral argument, you will need to prepare. Your argument should focus on the points that you set out in your brief, focusing on what you think are your strongest points. The judges will be able to ask you any questions that they want related to your case.\\nThe most important thing you can do to prepare is come up with a list of questions. Read the respondent’s brief and note the arguments made. Then write out your responses. Your responses will probably sound similar to the arguments you made in your brief.\\nFor example, if the respondent argues that you never presented evidence that there was a contract, then you will need to mention the evidence in the record that supports the existence of a contract.\\nPractice your answers with friends. Have them pretend to be judges.\\n5-3. Watch oral argument.\\nTo get an idea of what to expect, you can attend oral arguments at the courthouse. Watch how the attorneys comport themselves and how they answer questions.\\n5-4. Argue your appeal.\\nBe sure to speak slowly and always call the judge “Your Honor” or “Judge.” Begin right off with your request and your arguments.\\nFor example, state, “We request that summary judgment be reversed because there are three triable issues of material fact.” Then start discussing those issues.\\nStay calm. Though it is perfectly normal to be nervous, treat the oral argument like a discussion between you and a stranger who knows something about the case but not as much as you do.\\nIf a judge asks a question, stop talking immediately and listen to the entire question.\\nDo not ask questions of judges. They are used to asking the questions, not answering them. If you don’t understand a question, try to answer it as best you can. Say something along the lines of, “If I understand the question correctly….” The judge will jump back in to clarify if he wants.\\n6. Taking Next Steps\\n6-1. Read the opinion.\\nAppellate courts almost always publish an opinion after they decide a case. You or your attorney will receive a copy. In the opinion, the court should discuss why it has accepted or rejected your arguments.\\n6-2. Consider another appeal.\\nIf you lose, you have the option of asking the full appellate court (usually 9 or more judges) to reconsider the case. You also could appeal to the next higher court—all the way up to the Supreme Court of your state or the Supreme Court of the United States, depending on your case.\\nHowever, the highest courts (either state or federal) usually can choose to take cases and are not required to take appeals. Therefore, even if you do continue to appeal, prepare yourself for the court declining to hear your case.\\nIt is also highly unlikely that you can get an appeal reversed. If you have been proceeding pro se, you should meet with an attorney to discuss whether a second appeal is even worthwhile.\\n6-3. Comply with the court’s order.\\nIf you win, the order of summary judgment will be reversed and the case will be sent back to the trial court for trial.\\nIf you lose, then the trial court’s judgment against you will stand.\\n6-4. Consider settling the case.\\nIf you win your appeal, you should consider trying to negotiate a favorable settlement with the opposing party instead of proceeding to trial. The opposing party will probably be more willing to settle in a way that is favorable to you.\\nAdditionally, even if you won your appeal, keep in mind that proceeding to trial is a risk and you could lose, regardless of whether you won the appeal or not.\\nTips\\nAlways double check your record to make sure that it contains everything.\\nLook realistically at your chances before deciding to appeal. To figure out whether you have any chance, consult an attorney.\\nDefinitely talk with an attorney who specializes in appeals. The appellate process can be even more confusing than trials.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Summary judgment is the process by which litigants can end cases before going to trial. If you can show that the important facts in the case are undisputed and that those facts are in your favor, the judge can decide the case on the basis of a Motion for Summary Judgment. If summary judgment is granted on all causes of action, then the case is over. If the judge denies the party’s motion, the case continues on to trial.

1,817 | How to Appeal an Unfair Suspension or Expulsion | 1. Evaluating the Notice of Misconduct
1-1. Receive the notice from the school.
If your child is suspended or expelled, the school must send a written notice home that describes specifically the charges against the child as well as the date, time, and location of any hearing or conference with the principal.
The notice must include the date of the incident that led to the disciplinary action and describe the incident in sufficient detail that the child can recognize and understand why they were suspended or expelled.
The notice also must contain information about the initial hearing – typically an informal conference with the principal – and the process for appeal.
If the school district's rules require you to request a conference, your notice also will describe the process for requesting a conference and the deadline by which you must submit such a request.
1-2. Discuss the matter with your child.
Find out what happened from your child's point of view, as well as what he or she was told by teachers or administrators who made the suspension or expulsion decision.
Listen carefully and try to get a good understanding of what happened. If your child was injured, take pictures of those injuries for evidence as soon as possible after they happened.
If your child has special needs, you have the right to request behavioral screenings and tests to determine whether the behavior was related to the child's disability.
1-3. Read the school's code of conduct.
Schools must publish a written code of conduct and make them available to all students. The code must specify the disciplinary procedures and which violations may result in suspension or expulsion.
Make sure the incident for which your child is being suspended or expelled is actually listed in the school's code of conduct as an offense punishable by suspension or expulsion. Otherwise, you may argue that the child had no way of knowing suspension or expulsion was possible.
The school's handbook also typically includes important information about the process when a child is suspended or expelled. Read this information carefully and call the school if you have any questions about the procedure.
The penalty for some offenses is automatic suspension or expulsion. If your child is accused of one of these offenses, there typically aren't any alternatives available – if your child committed the offense, he or she must face the mandatory penalty.
However, most school districts view suspension or expulsion as an absolute last resort for more minor offenses.
If your child has been suspended or expelled for a relatively minor offense, he or she likely has been disciplined for the same or similar violations of school rules on several occasions.
1-4. Talk to your child's teacher.
After you've spoken with your child and understand the rules he or she was charged with violating, make an appointment to meet with the teacher or school official who suspended or expelled your child to find out more about the reason for the disciplinary action.
Your child's teacher spends the most time with them in the school setting, and can provide some valuable insight on the situation preceding the incident as well as the suspension or expulsion decision.
In some cases, the teacher may even be on your child's side, and willing to testify on his or her behalf at your conference with the principal or in a subsequent appeal, should that become necessary.
The teacher also may have alternatives they believe would be more beneficial to your child than suspension or expulsion, and can testify that despite any problems it's in your child's best interests to remain in school.
When you meet with your child's teacher, you have the right to request a copy of your child's disciplinary record. Make an effort to get these documents before your conference with the principal so you have full knowledge of your child's disciplinary history at school.
2. Attending the Informal Conference
2-1. Request a conference with the principal.
A student who has been suspended or expelled has the right to a conference with the principal to challenge the disciplinary action. Some schools may schedule these conferences automatically, while others require you to request one.
In some school districts, only the principal or vice principal has the authority to suspend or expel a student. If this is the rule at your child's school, the conference with the principal typically is mandatory.
You and your child do not have the right to be represented by an attorney at the conference with the principal. However, if you've talked to someone and want them to appear, you typically can call the principal's office and find out if an attorney is allowed.
2-2. Gather information about the incident or event.
Prepare for the conference by learning as much as possible about what happened, including the events surrounding the specific incident that led to your child's suspension or expulsion.
Review your child's permanent record as well as any other documents or information provided to you by the school regarding the incident or event that led to your child's suspension or expulsion.
If video or photos exist, either of the incident or event itself or of your child immediately after the incident, get copies of those and evaluate whether they support your child's defense.
2-3. Talk to teachers and other witnesses.
If it seems to you that the suspension or expulsion is unfair to your child, it's probable there are others who feel the same way. You may be able to get teachers or other students who witnessed the incident to testify on your child's behalf.
If witnesses have information that supports your child's side of the story, have them produce a written account. You may be able to show these statements to the principal even if witnesses aren't allowed at the conference.
You also should think about getting character witnesses for your child. Church or community leaders who've worked with your child may be able to provide excellent character references.
If your child has special needs, consider getting a statement from his or her doctor or psychiatrist – especially if the behavior that caused the suspension or expulsion is potentially related to his or her disability.
2-4. Appear at the date, time, and location listed on the notice.
If you want to defend your child against an unfair suspension or expulsion, it is imperative that you first show up for the informal conference with the principal. You typically aren't able to appeal that decision if you don't attend this initial hearing.
Wear professional clothing for the conference, and ensure your child is dressed appropriately as well. Neither of you have to wear a suit, but your clothes should be neat and clean.
Tell your child to avoid torn jeans or graphic T-shirts with slogans or images that might be offensive. If the school has a uniform, your child should wear it, even if they're not attending school that day.
When you meet the principal, treat him or her with respect. You may want to make a statement before the conference begins to the effect that you and your child appreciate the gravity of the situation, and that you only want to do what is in your child's best interests.
2-5. Listen to the school's case.
Typically the principal will first explain the incident that prompted disciplinary action and present the evidence in favor of suspending or expelling your child. Depending on the circumstances of the incident, there may be other school officials or teachers present.
Keep in mind that this is an informal conference, typically taking place in the principal's office. You aren't going to have to follow the same rules of evidence and procedure that you would in a more formal court setting.
However, don't take the informality to mean you can treat the situation casually. Treat all school officials, especially the principal, with courtesy and respect. Listen when others are speaking, and don't interrupt.
2-6. Present evidence on behalf of your child.
After the principal is done, you will have the chance to speak on behalf of your child in an effort to prove that the suspension or expulsion is unfair. Depending on the rules of your school district, you may have the right to introduce evidence or call witnesses.
Your child has the right to remain silent, both in the conference and any appeal hearing. This can be important if there is a possibility your child will face criminal charges for his or her involvement in the incident.
Typically if your child does decide to speak in his or her own behalf, anything said cannot be used in any other proceeding, including in juvenile court proceedings. Any statements made, by your child or anyone else, can only be used in proceedings related to that particular disciplinary action.
If the principal interrupts you to ask a question at any time while you're speaking, stop and answer the question before moving on and finishing your point. If you want to show photos or a statement someone has written on your child's behalf, it's polite to first ask the principal if he or she is willing to look at it – don't just shove something in front of the principal's face.
Avoid arguing with the principal or any other school officials who might be present, and refrain from making personal remarks or insults. This attitude won't endear you to the principal, nor will it do your child any favors.
2-7. Receive the principal's decision.
After discussing the matter with you, the principal will decide whether the suspension or expulsion is appropriate in light of all evidence and circumstances. Typically they'll let you know their decision right away, then send a written notification.
Try to remain calm, regardless of what the principal's decision is. If you believe strongly that your child should not be suspended or expelled, it can be easy to boil over if the principal announces that the suspension or expulsion will be upheld.
You may want to ask the principal what motivated his or her decision, or to point out any particular facts that were most important. You can use this information in your appeal.
Before you leave the principal's office, get an understanding of the time frame and procedure for appealing the decision so you know what to do next.
3. Appealing to the Board
3-1. Submit a written request.
Typically you must request an appeal of the school's suspension or expulsion decision in writing within a few days of your conference with the principal. Each school district has its own procedures, which will be explained to you when you receive written notification of the outcome of the conference.
Even if your child has already served out his or her suspension or expulsion, you should consider appealing the suspension or expulsion if you believe it was unfair. While the school board can't undo a suspension or expulsion that's already happened, they can have it removed from your child's permanent record.
Your district may have a form to fill out to request an appeal, or you may have to write a letter. The notice should tell you the specific information that must be included in the letter.
At a minimum, your request should include your child's name, the name of the school, and the date and other pertinent information about the suspension or expulsion, including the offense with which your child was charged.
You may want to make a copy of the suspension or expulsion notice you received and include that with your appeal.
Make a copy of your letter or request form before you send it so you have it for your records. You probably want to send it using certified mail with returned receipt requested, so you'll know when your request was received.
The school board will send you a notice in reply that provides information on the date, time, and location of the appeals hearing. This notice also will include important information about your child's rights, and may explain the appeals process in further detail.
3-2. Organize your evidence and information.
Typically you'll be presenting evidence and witnesses under rules and procedures that are similar, if less formal, than those in court. Being prepared and well-organized can help your child's case by giving the board members a good impression.
Since you often have the right to call witnesses, contact anyone who previously gave you information that supported your child's cause and ask if they would be willing to attend the hearing and testify.
If you do plan to call witnesses, get together with them at least once before the hearing is scheduled to go over the questions you'll ask as well as questions they might be asked on cross-examination by school officials.
Make notes or an outline of the points you want to make in your child's defense and the order in which you plan to present them. This way if a board member asks you a question or you get off track, you can refer to your notes and quickly return to the points you wanted to make.
3-3. Consider hiring an attorney.
Most school districts allow parents and students to be represented by counsel on appeal, and at this stage an experienced education attorney may be best able to protect your child's interests.
Keep in mind that even a short-term attention that appears on your child's permanent record can negatively affect his or her future, including college admissions.
The website of your state or local bar association is a good place to begin your search for an attorney. They typically have a searchable directory of attorneys licensed to practice in your area.
Look for an attorney who specializes in education law and has experience representing children in suspension or expulsion hearings.
3-4. Appear at the scheduled date and time.
In response to your written request, the school board will send you a notice listing the date, time, and location of the appeals hearing. Make sure both you and your child are available and able to attend this hearing.
As with your conference with the principal, you want to wear neat, clean, professional attire – and encourage your child to do the same.
If you've brought witnesses, you may want to meet with them at a nearby location prior to the hearing so you can go over their testimony one more time and arrive at the hearing together.
When you arrive at the hearing room, the board members who will be hearing your appeal likely will introduce themselves and explain the proceeding in greater detail, including rules for introducing evidence or calling witnesses.
Pay attention to any introductory remarks, and don't be afraid to ask questions if there's something you don't understand.
3-5. Present your arguments and evidence.
Since you filed the appeal, you may have the first opportunity to introduce evidence and make your argument that your child's suspension or expulsion was unfair.
Following your notes, present your case in an orderly fashion. Speak in a loud and clear voice so everyone can hear you.
If a board member asks you a question, stop speaking and answer it immediately. Don't resume your presentation until the board member indicates that he or she is satisfied with your response.
If you've hired an attorney, he or she may call you to the stand to testify on behalf of your child. Apply the same rules of conduct to yourself as a witness as you would if you were carrying the appeal yourself without benefit of counsel.
Focus on the reasons suspension or expulsion is unfair to your child, rather than attempting to argue your child's role in the incident or whether he or she violated the school's rules.
If your child has special needs, you may want to call the child's doctor or psychiatrist to testify as to the unfairness of suspending or expelling the child, and the problems it would cause or is causing for the child's health and well-being.
3-6. Listen to the school's defense of the decision.
After you've presented your argument, the school will have the opportunity to prove the suspension or expulsion was fair under the circumstances and the decision of the original hearing officer was correct.
Avoid interrupting or shouting out while school officials are speaking. Keep in mind that you had your chance to present your case, and now the other side must have an equal opportunity.
If you disrupt or distract from the proceedings, it may reflect poorly on your child as well as the state of your appeal.
If the school calls any witnesses, you typically will have the opportunity to ask them questions yourself through cross-examination. Pay attention while the witness is talking, and take notes on anything you want to question him or her about further.
3-7. Receive the board's decision.
After hearing both sides, the school board will make its determination as to whether the suspension or expulsion was fair and the decision of the initial hearing officer was correct.
The board may let you know the decision at the end of the hearing, or may discuss it among themselves before issuing a decision. Regardless, you'll receive a written notice of the board's findings and decision.
If the school board does not rule in your child's favor, you may have the ability to appeal the decision to the state school board, or to a county court. You'll get information about the appeals process with your written notification of the board's decision.

Any statements made, by your child or anyone else, can only be used in proceedings related to that particular disciplinary action.\\nIf the principal interrupts you to ask a question at any time while you're speaking, stop and answer the question before moving on and finishing your point.

While the school board can't undo a suspension or expulsion that's already happened, they can have it removed from your child's permanent record.\\nYour district may have a form to fill out to request an appeal, or you may have to write a letter.

1,818 | How to Appear Busy While Using a Computer | 1. Steps
1-1. If you have a scheduled assignment, keep it in the taskbar and prepare to fast-click to it at a second's notice.
Alt-tab can also be useful here.
1-2. Intersperse work with downtime by working for a few moments followed by IMing, Facebooking, Googling, or whatever it is you feel like doing.
This way you can relax and do your job, albeit slowly, at the same time.
1-3. Write a wikiHow article on something you know about.
It looks like work, and takes a good amount of typing to do. It's a perfect cover, but won't impress your boss if you're being paid to do tasks.
1-4. If you're at home with a laptop then try sitting with your back to a wall.
That way no one can see what you're doing. Do a lot of typing that looks productive.
1-5. Make sure that even if you aren't doing much work, have something that looks like work open, such as an end of quarter PowerPoint or something of the sort.
Tips
If you are at work, a library, or any other public place, it may be a good idea to strategically place open books, folders, or papers on and around your desk or table. Be sure to turn the pages once in a while, or pretend to read them, to increase believability.
When somebody tells you something, don't answer immediately and say, 'Shh, I'm trying to work!" Can't you see I'm busy? I can't focus both at you and at what I'm doing now!'
In Windows, hitting the Windows and the D key simultaneously will take you to your Desktop instantly.
Warnings
You might get caught, be alert at all times.
Don't click out of something fast, that will draw a teacher or professor's attention. Just calmly click into another page or always go to Yahoo.com or Google!
Don't play Solitaire/Minesweeper/any other silly game if you want to appear busy. Being caught doing something as trivial as that only shows how bored you really are.
Don't appear to be too interested, that is a sign that you're not doing work.

1,819 | How to Appear Confident to Women | 1. Steps
1-1. Dress well and groom your face and body.
Wear clothing that is both comfortable and classy. Pick a style and stick with it from your tie to your shoes. Add flair to your outfit by including a personal touch. This can be a funky tie, a unique watch or an interesting belt. Showcasing your personality exhibits the confidence you have in your own self.
Trim your beard, mustache, goatee, etc. so that it appears clean and put together. Having a clean face and facial hair can make you feel fresh and give you more confidence than if you just rolled out of bed.
Cut your fingernails, trim the hairs in your ears and nose, and wash your hair. If you style your hair regularly, do so. Avoid trying radical new hairstyles when trying to impress a woman. The uncertainty of the new style might make you lose confidence.
1-2. Speak slowly and avoid rambling.
Try to slow your speech down by at least 50 percent. When you're nervous, your voice tends to raise an octave and you begin speaking faster.
Focus on being calm when speaking. If you think about each word before you say it, you will slow down automatically. This can also prevent you from misspeaking and having to put your foot in your mouth during conversation.
Stay on topic with the conversation. Say only as much as the conversation requires. Once you answer a question, do not continue to speak to fill a silence.
1-3. Smile often.
Practice a genuine smile in the mirror. A genuine smile is not too cheesy or large. It feels comfortable when you do it and doesn't come off as creepy to others. A genuine smile shows confidence; and a genuine laugh is even better.
1-4. Keep steady eye contact.
Look at the woman whom you are talking to or listening to for as long as you or she is speaking. Men who aren't confident tend to have wandering or shifty eyes. When a woman speaks directly to a man with little confidence, the man usually has a hard time returning a strong gaze. This shouts nervousness.
1-5. Try not to over-think your actions.
Understand the meaning of your words, but do not go over every conversation in your head after or during.
Try not to over-think an action such as pouring a drink or lifting a glass to your mouth. Over-thinking these basic actions puts an emphasis on them, and the extra pressure you exert on the situation can cause you to mess up when you otherwise wouldn't have.
1-6. Remember to breathe.
Speak at a natural pace and breathe often. When people get nervous, they sometimes forget to breathe. When they finally do breathe, it causes them to blurt out their words.
1-7. Watch your posture.
Stand up as straight as you can. Pull your shoulders back and lift your head up. If you do one thing when trying to appear confident, it should be maintaining perfect posture.
People who slouch appear sloppy, unkempt and timid. You will feel more confident immediately once your posture is straight.
Think that you are looking to have fun and enjoy the process of dating.
Do not be concerned about the outcome of a date.
Convince yourself that you are worthy enough to meet someone special with whom you can share your life.
Tips
Hold your drink in your non-dominant hand if you are in a restaurant or bar setting. This prevents you from shaking hands with women with a wet hand. It also steadies your hand and prevents you from fidgeting.
If you make a mistake, you shouldn't act embarrassed and thinking the problem. This can destroy the conversation. Make the mistake funny and act like nothing happened.

1,820 | How to Appear Confident when in a Fight | 1. Using Confident Body Language
1-1. Be aware of your facial muscles.
Your face can reveal a lot about your feelings, and it's easy to look nervous during a tense situation. Pay attention to the muscles on your face and, if you feel them tensing up, make an effort to relax them. You want to avoid looking scared in a fight, as this can egg your aggressor on.
Pay attention to your forehead. If you notice your eyebrows creeping up during a grimace, try to lower them.
Focus on your facial muscles. If you feel your face twitching at all, this can come off as nervous. Work on relaxing your face, keeping the muscles still.
1-2. Watch your upper body.
How you hold your body can convey confidence or fear. Avoid slouching or crouching downward, as this looks like a sign of defeat or fear. Stand tall throughout a fight to show you will not be intimidated.
Make sure your back is straight and watch your shoulders. They may lurch forward when you're nervous. You want them to be behind your back.
Don't cross your arms at any point. This is a defensive motion and will make you appear vulnerable.
Keep your fists by your face so that you can easily block any attacks. Your arms will protect your neck and chest.
1-3. Adopt a boxer stance.
This will not only make you appear confident, it will help you keep your balance when fighting. Falling during a fight can cause serious injury, so keep yourself in the boxer stance throughout the fight.
Bend your knees, keeping one leg forward slightly.
Spread your feet out until your feet are roughly the same width as your shoulders.
1-4. Maintain some degree of eye contact.
Eye contact can convey confidence. However, you want to be watching your opponent's movements as well. Make eye contact throughout the fight when you have a dull moment to show your opponent you are not afraid.
Keep your fists in front of your face, just below the eyes. This will place them close enough that you can quickly block any attacks aimed at them.
You don't want to keep your fists right in front of your eyes as this can obscure your vision. You still need a clear view.
2. Fighting With Confidence
2-1. Respond without reacting.
If you become reactionary in a fight, this can escalate the situation. It can make you the aggressor. This can make you look out of control and emotional, which can make you look weak in your opponent's eyes. Only respond to what your opponent does. Do not react.
Pause before you react to something your opponent does. For example, if they insult you, don't give in to your emotions and charge at them. Stand your ground.
2-2. Fight defensively only.
If you attack your opponent when he is down, you can seriously injure him or her. This could result in potential legal trouble. The only time you should fight is to defend yourself.
Seek only to deflect your opponents moves. Use your hands to block punches and kicks.
Do not do things like punch, kick, or otherwise lash out at your opponent. Seek only to push your opponent off of you to avoid injury.
2-3. Protect vulnerable areas.
You want to make sure you are protected. If you're hurt in a vulnerable area, you may flinch or cry out in pain. This can break your confidence, and could even result in you becoming physically injured.
Block any attacks aimed at the eyes, ears, nose, neck throat, genitals, or knees. Getting hurt these areas can cause serious injury and lead you to lose.
Always keep your arms up in a fighting stance. Your fists will protect your face while your arms will keep your neck and chest safe.
Watch your opponent's moves closely. Try to predict where he or she will strike and be ready to protect yourself as necessary.
2-4. Keep your tone of voice confident.
Your tone of voice can also portray confidence. You do not want to sound scared, intimidated, or hysterical, so pay attention to your tone of voice if you speak during the fight.
Keep an even tone if you need to talk. Do not talk too slowly or too softly.
Avoid nervous words like "um."
Talk in a clear tone. Mumbling can make you sound nervous.
2-5. Try to remain calm.
Strong emotions like panic can make you appear nervous. If you start to get nervous, you will display body language and a tone of voice that conveys fear. It can be very difficult to stay calm in a fight, but it's important to remain calm if you want to appear confident.
If at all possible, take a deep breath. This can calm you down. However, when fighting, it may simply not be an option.
3. Avoiding Dangerous Situations
3-1. Avoid fighting unless it's necessary for self defense.
You should never seek out someone to fight, or attack someone who is picking on you as a form of intimidation. Fighting is dangerous. Seeking out a fight is always a bad idea.
An aggressor could have a weapon. You never know if someone is carrying a knife or another sharp object, so it's best not to risk it by picking a fight.
If you push someone into fighting, they could come back later with friends to target you. You do not want to start a cycle of violence.
If you need to fight to defend yourself, do so, but remember this is the only time you should fight. Fighting is only justified when it's the only way for you to escape injury.
3-2. Stay away from dangerous areas where fights are likely to occur.
If you're worried about fighting because someone is targeting you, be proactive. Stay away from areas where you feel fighting may occur. Stay in well lit, open areas where there is a lot of supervision.
It's a good idea to travel in groups, especially if someone is threatening you with aggression.
If you're at school, avoid areas where bullies congregate. You may be more likely to get jumped in these areas.
3-3. Contact the police if necessary.
If someone is threatening you with physical violence, contact the police. Fighting can have legal consequences for you if you hurt someone, and you can also suffer serious injury. If you are being threatened with violence, report it to the police. The police can help diffuse the situation before violence becomes necessary.
Never be afraid to call the police. They are there to help you. Sometimes, just the act of calling them may be enough to diffuse the situation.
Even if the assailant calms down, it might still be a good idea to have an officer near by in case it was just an act and he tries to attack you again.
3-4. Enroll in a self defense class.
If you've been the target of bullies before, self defense can help. See if you can find a local community center that offers self defense training. You could also try something like karate. A self defense course can teach you safe ways to defend yourself in a fight, and how to avoid injury.
Not every form of self defense will be right for you. Some forms are more practical whiles others aren't. Similarly, some are more defensive while others are offensive.
Before you enroll in the class, ask the instructor if you can sit and watch a class or two before you make your decision.
Tips
Bring friends with you if you have to walk in dangerous areas. If you are in school and a bully is targeting you, adopt the buddy system to keep yourself safe from harm.
Warnings
Fighting has legal consequences. You could get in trouble for something like assault or disturbing the peace. For this reason, it's always best to avoid a fight if at all possible. Only fight when it's necessary for self defense and, even then, only fight to the point of neutralizing your opponent. If you injure someone seriously, you could face criminal charges.

1,821 | How to Appear Intelligent | 1. Wear glasses.
People often associate glasses with intelligence.
By wearing glasses, you may appear smarter. In fact, this phenomenon has been proven in multiple studies.
2. Buff up your lexicon.
It's common knowledge that intelligent people tend to use longer words.
However, when someone intentionally warps their speech into a bunch of--ahem--sesquipedalian, loquacious verbiage--it looks silly, and is obviously fake.
Intelligent people use longer words because they're more precise and efficient, and they help explain things in a way that's more easily understood (if you can get a handle on the vocabulary, at least).
Avoid slang terms. Using slang terms generally doesn't improve your image, and it may make some people less likely to see you in an intelligent light.
3. Enunciate and speak clearly.
Make sure people can understand you.
When people can hear what you're saying, they're more likely to pay attention and respect you because you sound intelligent.
Avoid covering your mouth when you speak. This can muffle your voice and make you seem uncertain and confused.
4. Speak only when you have something to contribute.
The less you say, the less room there is for people to judge you.
If you don't know much about the subject, or feel uncomfortable with the topic at hand, avoid chiming in to the conversation. This leaves you vulnerable to making mistakes that could tarnish your intelligent reputation.
5. Refrain from using sentence fillers.
Sentence fillers are words like 'umm', 'errr', and 'like'.
They make you appear as if you don't know what you are talking about or just appears as less mature.
The best way to avoid sentence fillers is to plan out your next statement. By taking a few seconds to gather your thoughts before speaking, you'll lessen the chance that you'll stumble over your words.
6. Dress the part.
Your best option is a 'smart-casual' wardrobe.
You will need several blazers (preferably tweed), various shirts/blouses and smart-looking trousers. Maintaining your appearance will help create the illusion that you're an intelligent and precise person.
While a neat haircut isn't quite indicative of intellect, it shows that you want to look smart but low-maintenance (i.e. not wanting to style your hair every morning, but still caring about your appearance).
7. Look for abridged explanations and summaries.
Want to carry on a conversation with your well-read friends?
If you don't have much patience for the classics, read CliffNotes or watch a film adaptation so you at least know what they're about. Familiarise yourself with famous authors and popular philosophies. Get abbreviated, crash-course lessons on a couple different topics of your choice.
Search on the Internet. Mildly interested in psychology? Try the book Psych101--it's a small book that'll familiarize you with the basic theories and theorists, and you can pick it up and read little bits at your leisure.
Many quick explanations of higher-level topics can be found on video-streaming websites, such as Youtube. You could begin by searching for "Quick Philosophical Topics" and perusing what shows up!
8. Answer questions as completely as you can with what you know.
Don't pretend you understand a topic that you're unfamiliar with.
Truly intelligent people are secure in their intelligence, so they're not afraid to admit they don't know everything about everything. Nobody does.
9. Avoid swearing and use of other types of 'vulgar' language.
The primary reason to swear is to use shock tactics.
Using language that society has deemed inappropriate is supposed to add meaning to your statements. Intelligent people have better ways to make their point than bad language, and they tend to look down upon profanity.
Rather than use foul language, try to explain your emotions using more efficient terminology. In addition to avoiding profanity, you'll impress your friends with your newfound vocabulary.
10. Avoid being arrogant.
Arrogance has nothing to do with intelligence.
Instead, it has all too much to do with being rude and conceited.
Tips
Ask lots of questions. It increases your intelligence when you listen to the answers, and also shows that you're paying attention, making you look more intelligent. Win-win!
Hang around with intelligent people, and listen a lot. You'll find that the more you try to understand, the more intelligent you become, or at least the more intelligent you'll look.
It's actually not difficult to pick up smarts you don't have to fake.
Warnings
Don't try to one-up or argue with people who actually know what they're talking about. You will be shot down, humiliated and pegged in that person's mind as irritating.

1,822 | How to Appear Less American While Touring in Europe | 1. Steps
1-1. Look at what others are wearing.
Are they wearing sneakers? Boots? Heels/dress shoes? Take a look around and notice trends. Most Europeans do not wear sneakers, so wear boots, flats, or anything that suits your fancy. Make sure that they are comfortable as well.
1-2. Carry a coat.
Get one that's not too bulky, but warm. A lot of European countries get a considerable amount of rain and some are very cold, like the United Kingdom and Poland. Make sure your jacket keeps you warm and dry.
1-3. Dress casually.
Don't wear shirts with American brands or slogans on them. "American Eagle", "Hollister", or "Abercrombie & Fitch" are probably not a good idea.
1-4. Try to blend in.
Speak quietly and don't draw attention to yourself. Don't behave like a tourist, and be polite and courteous. You probably won't fool people thinking that you're European for long, but you can leave them with a good impression of yourself.
1-5. Don't assume that everyone speaks English.
Even if they do, they might not answer. Remember that those who do would still greatly appreciate a word or two in their native tongue and who knows, they might even be nicer to you! If they have great vocabulary and pronunciation, tell them. They'll appreciate it and treat you better.
1-6. Make sure you know at least a little bit of the language.
Attempting to speak the country's language is showing respect towards the nation and its people. Good words or phrases to know include are "hello", "please", "goodbye", "do you have...?", and "do you speak English?"
1-7. Don't wear any clothing that screams "American"!
Examples include: shirts with the American flag on it, "I Love NY" shirts, shorts with anything written on the buttocks, etc. At the same time, don't pretend to be a different nationality; it might get you in trouble and put you in the position where you either have to lie or make a strange excuse.
1-8. Dress fashionably.
You don't have to sport all the latest trends, but try to put effort into your appearance. Clothing articles like hoodies and sweatpants probably won't make you very European looking, so try to stay away from the outdated and sloppy look.
1-9. Speak quietly in public.
In the United States, a "notice me" approach to public volume is acceptable, but in Europe, your accent and loud talk will be unappreciated. You don't have to whisper, but try to act civilized and polite.
Tips
Don't brag about how better or bigger things are in America. Seriously, no-one's interested.
You need to know at least where you are and where you are going. Charging off on a "European adventure" may seem like a good idea, but it will lead to disaster.
Make sure you have some Euros, or whatever other currency the European country you're visiting uses. (e.g Pound Sterling, Złoty, Krone, Forint) No shops, restaurants, bars, or other businesses in Europe will accept U.S. Dollars as payment. Also note that Denmark, Sweden, the UK and Hungary are not part of the Eurozone, and therefore do not accept the Euro as currency. Check what the local currency is before visiting the country. The majority of EU countries have the Euro as their national currency, while some do not.
Warnings
Don't be conspicuous. Try to blend in; this cannot be emphasized enough.
Beware of pickpockets and thieves.
If you feel uncomfortable in any situation, leave.
Don't leave anything valuable or overly American in sight in your car. Car vandalism is unfortunately common in Europe.
Try not to behave like a stereotypical American. Fast-food outlets are seen as a symbol of America, so for example, if you were seen going into a McDonald's, or using American dialect instead of UK dialect which is taught in many European schools; you would stand out from the crowd, whereas if you went into a traditional restaurant of the country you're visiting, you may appear to be less of an outsider.

1,823 | How to Appear Less Vulnerable | 1. Who is trying to shape you?
1-1. Observe how many masters you have in your life.
People who tell you what to do must have a legitimate reason for this role. That means, your boss asking you to perform work, your parents asking you to do something when you're under 18, or your local police officer asking you to stop jaywalking. This does not mean your spouse nagging you, your adult parents insisting you become the realization of their failed dreams or your co-worker insisting that you complete their deadlines as well as your own. Too many masters in your life telling what to do can end up causing internal conflict, unhappiness and confusion.
1-2. Listen but don't change for every person who insists they know what's best for you.
While it's okay to listen to other people's advice, it's not okay to be led by their preferences on who you should be according to their grand plan. Have your own grand plan and balance the advice you receive to help, not hinder you.
2. Shaping yourself
2-1. Consider what matters to you in life.
If you are a caring, sharing and emotionally connected person, don't give that up for the sake of wanting to appear tougher. You are who you are, and this journey is partly about getting others to respect that.
2-2. Think about ways in which you might contribute to your own vulnerabilities.
If you have a life plan but you are inconsistent, vague and easily persuaded to follow other directions, this can be harmful to developing your true self. This isn't the same as openness to new experiences and willingness to try new things––such virtues can be practiced without losing a sense of self. The problem arises when you let others decide your destiny, your direction and what sorts of values you should follow. Chopping and changing your mind can lead to being vulnerable to other people's opinions.
2-3. Develop your own values and be happy that they truly represent you.
Then, be consistent about them and follow through on these values, enhancing your skills, talents and thoughts in line with these values.
3. Finding strength in vulnerability
3-1. Don't apologize for being emotional, sensitive or tender.
If you are someone who cares so much that your heart is on your sleeve, wear it with pride. There aren't enough people willing to stand up for feelings and emotions forming a valid part of the whole. Remind yourself that showing emotions is a sign of strength.
Brené Brown, author of Daring Greatly, says that vulnerability is "the birthplace of innovation, creativity and change." She also says it represents truth and courage. These are brilliant virtues, not weaknesses to be hidden away!
3-2. Practice self validation.
This isn't about patting yourself on the back just for being awesome all the time. It's about recognizing when you've done a good job, helped someone, made a positive difference and tried hard. This ability to self coach and self validate will help you to overcome the need for validation from others, which can become an obsessive pursuit that leaves you vulnerable to others' judgments, which are frequently misplaced or self-interested.
Be ready to acknowledge to yourself when you've done a good job, when you need to improve and when things that didn't go so well aren't the end of the world but a pathway to making things right again. This makes for a nice balance that is not narcissistic, unrealistic or pessimistic.
3-3. Find your own pathway to contentment.
A content person is someone who has put right whatever is wrong in life. Contentedness comes from more than simply pursuing what other people say produces happiness––it comes from working out for yourself what brings you contentment and fulfillment. Some of this will take trial and error, and it will change over time. But that's okay, a person who is flexible won't break when bent by life's inevitable hardships.
4. Appearing strong
4-1. Be the best you can be.
This means knowing your strengths and building on them, realizing that talent is only part of the equation and that honing it through learning, practice and more practice, is the best way to improve throughout life. It also includes knowing that you can do things competently.
4-2. Respect yourself and respect others.
Both forms of respect lead to respect being returned to you. Respect is a form of scuttling any appearance of vulnerability because people know you're strong.
Tips
Be respectful of everyone, even when they fail to be this way toward you.
Think carefully before reacting to any situation.

1,824 | How to Appear Like a Smart Girl at School | 1. Looks
1-1. Envision yourself as the "smart girl".
Observe other brainy girls carefully. What do you like about them? What do you dislike about them? Make a list of the pros and cons before you consider the change.
1-2. Cut your hair to a medium length.
Studies have shown that medium length hair is perceived as intelligent. If your hair is medium length, you can neatly braid it, wear it down and natural or put it in a neat looking bun. If you would prefer to keep it long, that is okay, but, you should make sure it's clean and neat. Whatever your style, make sure it doesn't take too long to manage. You will want to spend more time learning and less time standing in front of the mirror. Keep it natural looking and avoid excessive hair product (including dye, except in a natural colour). A small leather headband is good too.
1-3. Dress intelligently.
Cotton polo shirts, T-shirts with the names of museums or with university logos on them, plain and tailored looking pants, knee-length and above the knee skirts and clean, neat, clean-cut and sensible leather shoes/sandals are all nice. Navy blue, plaids and brown also look nice, but don't do it every day. Avoid trends and flashy clothes. Dress modestly. Don't show too much skin.
1-4. Keep your make-up clean and not excessive or elaborate.
No glitter or shine. Imitate the makeup of women of stature. Look for inspiration from fashion websites that address makeup for working women, and only use makeup in that section. You don't have to wear any makeup if you don't want to. Avoid excessive piercings.
1-5. Wear glasses if you need them.
Sometimes it makes people seem more intelligent, especially rectangle and rounded frames. Keep them clean. Thick frames are especially good. However, if you don't need them, don't be pretentious.
1-6. Carry these items:
a practical backpack of reasonable size, a good book to read, an address book to put your friends' phone numbers in, notebooks for your various needs, school paper, some pencils with good erasers, some ball point pens, a hand held manual pencil sharpener that doesn't need to be used over a trash bag, some good art erasers, some good eraser caps and a study/day planner.
2. Acting Like a Smart Girl in School
2-1. Impress your teachers
Start to study very hard and keep trying to raise your grades. Ask your teachers what you can do for extra credit. Your teachers in high school will write recommendations for you for college. Keep that in mind! Become a "do-er" at school which means win the science fair, run for office or organize the school dance. Write good articles for the school newspaper.
2-2. Show enthusiasm about school.
Many teens show, or pretend to have, a very negative or bored attitude about high school and working hard. They think it is "cool" to be indifferent. Be the opposite. If you don't take delight in school, why waste your time? You are there to learn.
2-3. Build a "homework cave" for yourself at home.
Keep all your work/books/supplies in one place, along with a desk and a strong desk light. Insist on peace and quiet from other family members. If it is too loud at home, study at the public library. Organising your schoolwork and making lists helps you, not just in school, but in life.
2-4. With your principal's permission, start a project in your school.
Try to raise money and awareness for worthy causes such as "Stop Hunger in Africa" or "Cure Childhood Cancer". You will also feel like a better person for it.
2-5. Find a smart woman for a role model
Ask if she will "mentor" you during school.
2-6. Set Goals
It's much easier to get things done if you clearly outline to yourself exactly what it is that you need to do.
2-7. Always have your stationery out in lessons.
Have your planner out, then put your pencil case on top in front of you. Get your ruler and pen/pencil out, ready to learn.
2-8. Volunteer to answer questions in class.
Teachers will think you are really trying and it could be the few marks you will need to move from a B to A.
3. Habits
3-1. Work hard
University admissions look at the High School you went to, your transcripts (grades and SAT scores), your teacher/counselor recommendations and what you tell them in your essays about yourself. Finish college applications early when you are a Senior.
3-2. Broaden your hobbies.
Discover interesting things to do with your close friends and when you are by yourself.
3-3. Practice time management
It will leave you more room for fun. Figure out where you are losing too much time in your day and fix it.
3-4. Develop poise
Work at becoming steady and confident. Try to some have composure at all times. Giggling, gossiping and insecurity make you look silly. Practice staying calm under pressure and being comfortable in a variety of settings.
3-5. Exercise as much as you can.
It will give you much-needed focus and make you more relaxed. Eat protein sources: egg white, tuna fish, chicken, power bars, etc. Try out for a good team sport like soccer or something you enjoy. Get good at it and enjoy it. Attend sports camps in the summer for at least 2 weeks. Try to jog, slowly building up to 5 kilometres (3 miles) a day to help your endurance. Also run stairs if you can to build up your leg muscles. A great side benefit is how thin you will stay or become and you will feel great about yourself. Also working out at a gym can build strength and confidence.
Tips
Always try your best to be noticed but not too attention getting. Take lots of notes in class and listen to your teachers. Sometimes you have to go out of your way to get special recognition at school. Be the first to finish your class projects. Don't just look smart but be smart. Win some awards and praise from the school teachers. Set goals to improve your grades but don't stress out too much!
Start writing all the time. Anything you want to write is fine. Most high schools and colleges reward very good essays. They might even read your story aloud to the class!
Be more competitive. Try to see what scores other people have, and try getting yours even just a bit higher than theirs.
Warnings
To do this you must be steady and consistent. Your behavior and your language should be softer and not aggressive.
A big turn off of hanging around smart people is they risk becoming "know-it-alls" and bragging too much about themselves. Keep clear of that obnoxious behavior and fly low under the radar. Never brag about your high test scores or awards. Surprise people when they didn't know you had it in you! Wait until they hear about it from your mom, best friend or teachers.
Don't let the day that the college admissions offices release their results make you too upset. The competition these days to get into certain universities is almost impossible ... almost. Don't take it personally!
It's hard if you are shy but smart kids ask their teachers questions. It might be extra hard to ask a teacher a question about the subject that he or she is teaching — especially if, in your culture, a) girls are discouraged from asking questions, and / or b) asking questions implies that the teacher doesn't know what s/he's doing — but try it anyway. Then listen very carefully to the answer.
When you go to a party do not drink. Alcohol destroys brain cells not to mention your liver. Many kids who are under pressure or stress from school drink to forget their problems. Don't be a crowd follower, as it makes you look and act stupid and you might do things you will regret. Don't get off your goal oriented track. Better yet, just drink soda instead, as alcohol is awful for you, not to mention illegal if you're a minor.
There will be people and events that will seem, or actively try, to stop you in your goals and dreams. If you want it badly enough, you will be successful.
A typical day of a smart girl is tough. You might have AP or honor classes to study for, then a sports practice or a club session. During the summer try swimming and biking to build your physical endurance. Exercise helps the brain function better.
If you feel burned out and are seriously unhappy, ask your parents if you can take the entire summer off.
If your parents start to pressure you about grades and the like, tell them you are working on yourself and show improvement. If they are obsessed about you and everything you do at school, you may have a problem, especially if they won't back off. Tell them very nicely and gently that they need to get a new hobby besides you. Smile at them and give them a hug. You are not only smart and lovely (inside and out) but a lady as well. Remember that.
Always do your homework and turn everything in on time. It's pretty much a given that smart girls are responsible about deadlines and this is crucial to your image of intelligence.

1,825 | How to Appear More Authoritative | 1. Creating an Authoritative Look
1-1. Know and accept your actual authority.
While there can be benefits to appearing authoritative in excess of your actual authority, the focus in this article is on enhancing the appearance to match the reality of your authority. To do so, especially in a business setting, it is important that you are clear on exactly what authority you do possess.
If your powers and responsibilities have not been clearly defined, discuss the particulars of your authority with your boss. Having things specifically laid out for you may make it easier for you to accept and represent this authority.
Another benefit of conferring regularly with your boss is making sure that you are on the same page. Making a decision, only to be quickly contradicted or overruled by your supervisor, tends to diminish your appearance of authority.
1-2. Focus on the goal, not popularity.
While Machiavelli's advice that it is better to be feared than loved may be a bit extreme for a workplace setting, it is true that strong leaders tend not to worry too much about the popularity of their decisions. Having authority is not easy or fun; it is often hard work, but work that needs to be done — by you.
Nobody wants to be hated, of course, but you’ll probably find that being direct, making the tough decisions, and doing what must be done will earn the respect of others. If you focus too much on trying to please everyone, you’re likely to sacrifice respect for the sake of some superficial likeability.
Deep down, most people would probably rather follow someone they respect than someone they like.
1-3. Stop undermining yourself.
Some of the things you do to demonstrate your authority may actually be making you appear weaker. If you seem to be trying too hard to “show who’s boss,” you’re more likely to be mocked than respected.
Unless you’re a drill sergeant, getting angry and shouting are not usually the best ways to demonstrate your authority. Likewise, appearing defensive when questioned or challenged tends to indicate weakness, not strength.
Some people think being authoritative means making snap decisions and sticking with them no matter what. In reality, taking the time (whenever possible) to think through a problem and making a calm, reasoned decision — and then sticking to it — demonstrates secure authority.
To convince others of your authority, you have to convince yourself first. Once you embrace the authority you know you have, you won’t feel the need to try so hard to prove it to other people. Your confidence will speak for you.
1-4. Dress with authority.
You may assume that donning a “power suit” or otherwise over-dressing for an occasion is the best way to appear authoritative. Quite often, however, this will be taken by others as another case of trying too hard.
To appear authoritative, you want to act like you “have it all together,” and by the same token you should look “put together.” Choose a style of dress that generally approximates what those around you will be wearing, but with extra emphasis on a crisp, clean look. If “dress casual” is the norm, emphasize the “dress” part without abandoning the “casual.”
Your wardrobe need not be bland, but a more subdued color palette and styling may give you a bit more gravitas.
1-5. Get on your feet.
To appear authoritative, you have to be noticed, and standing almost always makes you more noticeable. Standing makes it easier for you to command the spotlight, the stage, and the attention of those under your leadership.
If you are looking for a way to gain more authority by appearing more authoritative at work, you may want to try standing at a meeting while others are sitting. This makes you more noticeable and commanding in appearance. See if you can arrive at the perfect time so that you aren’t late but there are no seats left.
Stand even while you’re talking on the phone. When you sit, you tend to talk in a more reserved, less enthusiastic (and commanding) voice. Standing tends to make you speak with more energy and urgency.
2. Communicating with Authority
2-1. Face people and make eye contact.
Your mother may have told you it was good manners to look other people in the eyes while speaking to them, but it also helps attach an additional air of confidence to your words. Like an animal asserting authority in the wild, stand tall and directly face those whom you intend to lead.
If you are giving a presentation, for example, assume the “power position” at the start — stand in front of the podium, directly facing the audience and making eye contact throughout the room. If you are going through slides, don’t get caught facing the screen or standing perpendicular to both screen and audience the whole time. Face the people and look at them whenever possible.
You don’t need to intensely stare at someone while speaking to him/her. But return your gaze regularly to the person, and try not to look down at all while talking.
2-2. Talk in a deep, steady voice and finish each sentence.
Being confident and sounding confident are not always one and the same. Some people may be bursting with confidence in their authority, and yet the way they speak gives away this entire advantage. Once you feel authoritative, make sure you sound that way as well.
Don’t go to ridiculous lengths to deepen your voice, but adding just a bit more depth can help make what you say sound more authoritative.
Practice not allowing your voice to trail off at the end of a sentence. Some people tend to raise their voice inflection at the end of every sentence, making even declarative statements sound like questions. Don’t let it seem like you doubt what you’re saying.
2-3. Make use of silence.
Some people feel like silence is a sign of weakness, and want to fill any gaps by talking. Prattling on, however, is more likely to be taken as a lack of seriousness or certainty. Taking time to think through what you want to say, and using pauses and silence for effect while speaking, helps to bestow authority to your speech.
Always think through what you want to say before speaking. Even when you’re “on the spot,” take a couple seconds to gather your thoughts before you begin. That small period of silence will demonstrate that you are serious about addressing the topic at hand and saying exactly what you mean.
Practice getting rid of “fillers” like “um,” “uh,” “I think,” etc. Even if you aren’t using them because you’re uncertain of what you want to say, they tend to sound that way. A silent pause is preferable.
Use “chunking” while speaking — pause for effect between bursts of speech that each emphasize a key point. Give people a chance to soak in what you are saying.
2-4. Claim the stage.
Making eye contact and facing the audience have already been mentioned in this article, but there are additional steps you can take to demonstrate command of the room when you are addressing a group of people. You want all eyes on you as much as possible.
Walk around the stage or the part of the room you are occupying, as if you are marking it as your territory. You don’t need to stalk it like an animal, but walk and stand with confidence — as mentioned, it will be reflected in your voice.
Don’t be afraid of hand gestures either. Keeping your hands glued to the podium or clasped together may appear like fear or submission. No one needs to see you pound your shoe on the desk or anything of that sort, but some confident, deliberate gesturing will add weight to your words and your appearance.
2-5. Practice your authoritative voice.
In addition to adding some depth to your voice, finishing off sentences properly, and eliminating “fillers,” you can also work to perfect the tone and pace of your speaking. Speaking too quickly, too softly, or without enthusiasm can all be remedied with practice, and give your words more authority in the process.
You might feel silly reciting famous speeches from Shakespeare’s works in your bathroom mirror, but doing so can in fact be helpful. Think of yourself as a great actor on the stage, tackling Hamlet or Macbeth. Speaking with authority will come naturally.
More practically, you can practice the speech you’re going to give in a similar manner. Take note of your tone, pacing, volume, gesturing, and so on. Consider recording yourself so you can examine your practice run.
3. Building Confidence in Your Authoritative Self
3-1. Embrace the power of self-confidence.
All your efforts to appear more authoritative will likely fall short if you lack essential self-confidence. You have to believe you can wield authority, and deserve to have it, in order to express and use it effectively. While it is true that some people are naturally more confident than others, self-confidence is also a perspective that can be nurtured and developed.
How to Build Self Confidence offers an extensive list of ideas for becoming a more confident person. Its major subjects include:
Establishing a positive attitude.
Dealing with your emotions effectively.
Taking care of yourself — mind, body, and spirit.
Setting your goals.
Getting help when you need it.
3-2. Focus on your positives.
People with low self-confidence tend to compare themselves to unrealistic idealizations of others, and thereby find themselves always coming up short. Instead of holding yourself to impossible standards and focusing on your failures, work on training yourself to emphasize your successes. Focus on why you deserve to have authority.
Keep an updated list of personal accomplishments and positive attributes if that helps. Take note of compliments and positive feedback from others (and take them seriously). Surround yourself with positive reinforcement.
3-3. Look the part.
Looking authoritative and looking confident have many similarities, but you can’t really master the former without first nailing the latter. It may seem naive to think that looking confident can make you feel more confident, and yet it is true for many people.
Practice good posture. Take your personal grooming and dressing routines seriously. Look in the mirror and see a confident person staring back at you.
3-4. Face your fears.
People who lack confidence avoid or run away from their fears; they try not to depart their comfort zones. Self-confident people learn to swim by jumping in the water, or deal with a fear of heights by skydiving. Get out of your comfort zone, and when you achieve success doing so, use it as evidence in your confidence-building process.
Identify your goals, and establish a way to address them head-on. If you are afraid to speak up at meetings, draw up a list of potential questions or comments beforehand, and make yourself use at least one of them.

1,826 | Appear Offline on Instagram: 2 Easy Ways to Hide Your Status | 1. Using the Mobile App
1-1. Tap the profile icon or your profile photo.
You'll see either a small version of your profile photo or an outline of a person at the bottom-right corner of Instagram.
1-2. Tap the three-line menu ☰.
It's the three horizontal lines at the top-right corner.
1-3. Tap Settings.
This is the gear icon on the menu.
1-4. Tap Privacy.
This option has a lock icon and is near the top of the menu.
1-5. Tap Activity Status.
It's near the bottom of the "Interactions" section.
1-6. Tap the "Show Activity Status" switch to turn it off .
If the switch is in the On position, anyone can see when you're active on Instagram. Toggling off this switch disables your activity status and makes it look as if you're offline, even when you're not.
Turning off your activity status doesn't disable read receipts. This means that even though you now appear offline, people you've chatted with via direct messages can still see when you've seen their messages or are actively typing a response.
2. Using a Computer
2-1. Click your profile photo at the top-right corner of Instagram.com.
If you're using Instagram on a computer, it's easy to disable your activity status to appear offline.
2-2. Click Settings.
You'll see this on the menu. This expands the Edit Profile window, as well as other settings you can manage.
2-3. Click the Privacy and security tab.
You'll see this in the left panel.
2-4. Remove the checkmark from "Activity Status."
As long as the checkbox is blank, nobody will know when you're actively using Instagram, nor will they know when you were last active.
Even though you now appear offline, any friends you're chatting with in your direct messages can still see when you're actively typing a response. They'll also be able to tell when you've seen their message.
Tips
Turning off your activity status is an account-wide change—if you turn it off on your phone or tablet, it'll stay turned off when you sign in on another phone, tablet, or computer.
It's not possible to disable read receipts for Instagram direct messages.

This app is blue with a white lightning bolt on it.
If you aren't already signed into Facebook Messenger, enter your phone number and password before continuing.
1-2. Tap the People tab.
It's the stack of three lines that's either in the bottom-right area of the screen (iPhone) or the top-right area of the screen (Android).
1-3. Tap a friend's name.
This will open their conversation page; if you've never had a conversation with them, this page will be empty.

It's at the top of the conversation page. Doing so invokes a pop-up menu.
1-5. Tap Block.
This is the last option on the page.
1-6. Slide the "Block Messages" switch right.
It will turn green or blue, depending on your device. Doing so will prevent this friend from seeing that you're online, though it will also prevent you from receiving any messages from them.
Repeat this process with each person from whom you wish to hide.
2. Using a Computer
2-1. Go to Facebook's website.
It's at https://www.facebook.com/. Doing so will open your News Feed if you're already signed into Facebook.
If you aren't already signed into Facebook, enter your email address (or phone number) and password before continuing.
2-2. Click ⚙️.
This icon is in the bottom-right corner of the Facebook window, just below the chat bar. A pop-up menu will appear.
If your entire chat is currently turned off, first click the link.
2-3. Click Turn Off Chat.
It's near the middle of the pop-up menu.
2-4. Click the "Turn off chat for only some contacts" circle.
This option allows you to select specific friends to whom you'll appear offline.
If you only want to appear online to a few people, click the "Turn off chat for all contacts except" circle.
2-5. Select friends from whom to hide.
To do so, type in a friend's name, then click their name when it appears below the text field.
If you're turning on chat for a few people instead, just enter the names of the people for whom you wish to appear online.
2-6. Click Okay.
It's a blue button at the bottom of the window. This will turn off Facebook chat for your selected friends, making you appear offline in the process.
You will still be able to receive messages and notifications from these contacts, but they won't see you in their "Active Now" chat bar.
Tips
You can go offline entirely in Facebook Messenger by opening the People tab, tapping the Active tab, and sliding the switch next to your own name to the left.
Warnings
Your "Last Online" tag, which shows the last time you were online, will display the time at which you turned off chat for your contacts.
If you want to receive messages from or send messages to a blocked contact in Facebook Messenger, you'll need to unblock them.

1,832 | How to Appear Powerful with Body Language | 1. Noticing Facial Expressions
1-1. Appreciate the number of facial expressions.
Expressions can relay a variety emotions, six of which are common to all cultures:
Happiness, defined by rounded eyes, raised cheeks and a big smile.
Sadness, which is visible in the areas of the eyes and mouth.
Disgust, which includes lowered eyebrows and eyelids, a raised upper lip and wrinkled nose.
Surprise, which shows in the wide open eyes, raised brow and open mouth.
Anger surfaces in a lowered brow and penetrating, persistent stare.
Fear shows itself in the area around the eyes and an open mouth.
1-2. Make eye contact.
The eyes have been described the windows to the soul. People can observe much about a person through their eyes. When you make eye contact with another, it can make others feel more connected to you. This action suggests honesty, and that you are an approachable and confident. Too much eye contact, however, can be perceived as aggressive or hostile. Making eye contact during 50 to 60 percent of the conversation is considered appropriate.
If this amount of eye contact makes you uncomfortable or feels awkward, practice speaking while making eye contact with family or friends.
Be aware of your blink rate. Excessive blinking is usually means that you are uncomfortable or feeling stress.
1-3. Watch movements of the mouth.
The way the mouth appears may seem rather straight forward; a person who is happy smiles, while a person that does not smile is not happy. It is not always that simple however.
Lip biting can indicate stress, anxiety or feelings of worry.
Pursed lips can indicate distaste or disapproval.
Covering of the mouth, other than for covering a cough, can indicate that one is concealing a smirk or smile.
Curving of the corners of the mouth can be used to perceive emotion. When the corners of the mouth curve up, this can indicate happy or positive feelings. The curving down of the corners of the mouth can be indicate feelings of sadness or disapproval.
2. Watching the Hands, Arms, and Legs
2-1. Consider arm and hand gestures.
Many things can be perceived when one views a person's arms and hands.
With outreached arms and palms facing up, this communicates openness, acceptance and trustworthiness. If there is a movement of the arms in jerking motion, this is a statement that the person is feeling powerless.
With outreached arms and palms facing down, this portrays a sense of authority. If this action takes place during a conversation, it typically means the person you are communicating with is firm in their belief of what is being said.
Placement of a hand over the heart means that the comments being made are heartfelt and the speaker wants to be believed.
Finger pointing is used as an authoritative gesture, however when used when talking to a peer, it can imply a confrontational spirit and arrogance.
Rubbing hands together typically indicates excitement and anticipation of a positive nature.
Putting hands together in a steeple fashion portray feelings of self-assurance and confidence.
2-2. Use positive and reflective cues:
Such signs include your finger stroking your chin or putting your hand on your cheek.
Observe other signs that cast you in a thoughtful light. Look away in a contemplative manner after being as a question, then make eye contact when you are answering.
Tilting your head, with your eyes focused in an upward manner, is also a sign of reflection.
2-3. Be aware of signs that can come across negatively:
Crossed arms can be indicative of a person feeling defensive or closed off.
Standing with hands placed on the hips can be a sign of confidence and control or, on the negative side, a sign of aggressiveness.
The clasping of hands behind one's back can be a sign of anxiety, boredom or anger.
Tapping of fingers on a desk or surface can relay feelings of boredom or frustration.
2-4. Give a strong handshake.
While it should not be crushingly strong, grasping a hand in a firmly, with a few up and down shakes, while making eye contact will show confidence. This is important for both men and women.
2-5. Noting the placement of a person's legs.
As with arm and hand gestures, your legs can convey a message that you are not even aware of.
Crossed legs and shifting them a way from a particular person can indicate a closed off feeling, or distaste for another.
A crossing of the ankles, typically in men (as this gesture is considered ladylike in women) can be perceived as holding back information.
3. Observing Body Posture and Stance
3-1. Focus on a powerful image.
By incorporating some of the following ideas, you can portray yourself in a positive and powerful light:
Keep your back straight, with relaxed shoulders. Be sure not to look rigid.
Position your body parallel to the person with who you are speaking, to show that you are engaged. Lean in slightly, to show your interest.
Try to match the body language of the person you are speaking with. This will indicate you are sincere and amiable to what is being said.
3-2. Display power in your stance.
Taking on power poses like sitting with your legs up on your desk, or standing with your arms positively outstretched can increase the level of testosterone, which is linked to confidence. It also reduces the level of cortisol, which is a stress hormone.
4. Noting Gestures and Movements
4-1. Take note of unconscious body behavior.
Many gestures that we are not even aware of can give away clues to feelings and level of interest.
Clenched fists can be a sign of harmony or agreement; on the negative side, it can signal anger, or aggression.
Displaying a thumbs up or thumbs down is common for conveying that all is good, or alternatively, bad.
In America, the "okay" sign is a universal positive sign that all is good. The V-sign is also a positive sign for peace.
4-2. Be aware of the pitch of your voice.
The tone and pitch of your voice can express your level of confidence and comfort. High pitched voices are typically less confident and nervous, which can make the speaker seem less empathetic. Try some vocal exercises, like humming with your lips closed, to help lower the pitch of your voice to a more normal tone.
4-3. Make use of hand gestures.
There have been studies that show a link in the brain between our vocal processes and hand gestures. When used in combination, speech has been found to improve, with less use of the "ummm" and "uhhh" that can be typical when one is not speaking with complete confidence.
Tips
Practice makes perfect. If some of the steps don't come naturally to you, that's okay - continue to practice and work on your body language until you appear more powerful.

1,833 | How to Appear Professional | 1. Dressing Professionally
1-1. Know your office's dress code.
Most offices will spell out their dress code for you. However, if they don't, take a look around when you interview. You should be able to gauge what's appropriate to wear to the office by what other people are wearing. For instance, if everyone is wearing a suit and jacket, don't show up for work in jeans.
If you interview for a job, make sure to ask about the dress code if your interviewer does not mention it. This will show that you are committed to sticking with the office's dress code policies.
1-2. Find your brands.
It will make it easier for you to keep your wardrobe up if you find particular brands that work for you in your price range. Not every brand fits the same, nor does every style fit every person. Invest some time visiting different stores to find what you like up front, and then you won't have to spend as much time when you need to update your clothes later.
If the brands you like best are out of your price range, try shopping for them at second hand stores and discount outlets.
1-3. Understand modesty is your friend.
The office is not the place for short skirts, low-cut blouses, tight pants, or halfway unbuttoned shirts, for men or women. Keep your clothes more modest, and it is more likely that you will be seen as a professional.
Keep in mind that you only get 1 chance to make a first impression.
Also, remember that while modesty is important, your work performance and personality is what will set you apart.
1-4. Dress up more than you think you need to.
This rule is true especially when you are meeting someone for the first time, being interviewed, or attending a big meeting, such as a press release or a meeting with an important client. If you overdress, you'll still be seen as professional, while if you under dress, you'll be seen as unprofessional. That doesn't mean you need to wear tails or a formal dress to a stockholder's meeting; however, you should try to wear your top professional clothing.
Opt for muted colors when choosing an outfit for work. Black, dark grey, and navy are always good choices.
Keep your makeup simple and subdued as well, such as by wearing minimal makeup and selecting neutral tones, such as nude and light pink lipsticks.
1-5. Focus on the details.
It's the details that put you over the top professionally. For instance, you may have a well-made suit, but if it's covered in dog hair, you're not going to look professional. In addition, you may have nice shoes, but if they're heavily scuffed up, it takes away from your appearance.
Take a moment before you leave your house to scan yourself from head to toe for things like pet hair, tears in your clothing or stockings, and scuffed shoes.
1-6. Don't be afraid to add a little flair.
You can add personal touches to your outfit and still be considered professional. Maybe you like a funny tie, or maybe you enjoy a pretty hair clip. As long as it's not too flashy, it's fine.
Steer clear of large earrings, visible tattoos, pungent colognes, and anything else that might offend your interviewers, coworkers, or clients.
2. Acting Professionally
2-1. Show up on time.
Being on time actually means making sure you're there a few minutes early in the morning, ready to work. Also, when you are supposed to attend meetings, always be on time.
If you do end up being late at some point, having a reputation for being on time will be helpful. It will be more likely that you will be forgiven for being late.
2-2. Take appropriate breaks.
If you're supposed to take an hour lunch break, make sure you're back within the hour. Also, follow your break rules. If you're allowed 4 breaks a day at 10 minutes each, make sure to stick to that.
2-3. Know your job.
You should be trained to do your job when you first arrive. However, if you find yourself a year or two in, and you still don't have all the knowledge you need, ask someone for help. If you want to be discreet, ask someone who works at the same level as you to give you a few pointers.
Similarly, if you don't understand a new assignment, ask for clarification from your boss. Your boss usually won't mind because you're just trying to get the job done right.
2-4. Stay on task.
While you're at work, be at work. Don't be on the phone with non-business calls except for the rare emergency. Avoid social media and other distractions. Focus on the tasks at hand.
3. Keeping Up Appearances
3-1. Keep your personal and professional life separate.
While it's fine to mention your family once and while, it is best to avoid going into too much detail about your personal life. Avoid discussing family issues with your coworkers. If you have a medical issue that could affect your job performance, talk to someone from your human resources department. Similarly, watch how you present yourself on social media.
If you're friending people from work, you might want to hide certain posts from them, or better yet, don't post them at all. For instance, if you're going out on a drinking binge, don't post about it on social media.
If your coworkers mention wanting to connect with you on social media, direct them to your LinkedIn page.
However, remember, that once it's out there, it can be copied and shared by other people, so if you really don't want people to see it, don't post it.
3-2. Buy into the culture.
Every office has a different culture, including unspoken rules. Some are more relaxed, while others may be more rigid. Watch people closely to pick up on the unspoken rules. For instance, maybe one unspoken rule is that you need to use email if your question can wait a while.
3-3. Keep your office clean.
If you have piles of papers and coffee cups everywhere, you'll be viewed as unprofessional. However, you can add a few bits of personal charm; just keep it office appropriate. Pictures of your family are fine; pictures of half-naked men or women should stay at home.
Pictures that are lewd or offensive are inappropriate for your work space. Keep them at home or only in your private, non-work spaces.
3-4. Speak distinctly and thoughtfully.
The best way to sound professional is to keep the verbal tics out of your speech. One way to do that is to speak more slowly, taking time to think about what you're saying as you say it.
If you aren't sure what verbal tics you use, try taking a recording of yourself when you're talking on the phone. You'll be able to notice it better when you play back than you normally do when you're speaking.
Try to eliminate the "ums" and "likes."
4. Treating Others Well
4-1. Give other people your respect.
Being respectful, instead of catty or sarcastic, is a way of showing other people that you are a true professional. Encourage others to speak up in meetings, and don't belittle what they have to say. Don't respond rudely to people, even if you think the idea sounds silly.
4-2. Listen well
Part of treating others well is listening well. It shows other people that you actually care what he or she has to say, and it fosters true conversation, as you're not just waiting until they finish talking so you can say what you want.
Remember that listening is different than hearing. It is important to make sure that you fully understand what the other person says and consider their point of view.
4-3. Skip the gossip.
If you talk about people behind their back, eventually it will get back around to them, which won't make anyone happy. If you stay out of the drama, you'll definitely appear more professional.
4-4. Acknowledge your mistakes.
If something you worked on goes awry, don't push it off on someone else. Own up to it, and figure out how to do better in the future. If you realize something is going wrong in the middle of a project, bring it up with your boss; maybe together you can figure out how to fix it.
4-5. Make honesty your policy.
Professionals tell the truth about their work, both to their co-workers and their clients. Lying will eventually be found out and make you look unprofessional.
4-6. Be confident, not combative.
Though you should be confident in your work, you shouldn't try to take others down to make your work look better. For instance, if you finish your work quicker than others, your boss will notice without you crowing about it.
4-7. Use people's names.
People love to hear the sound of their name. If you use peoples' names often, they will feel more respected by you.
For example, when you pass a coworker in the hall, don't just say “hello.” Say, “Hello, Craig!” or “Hi, Annie!”
5. Maintaining Your Skills
5-1. Peruse the latest news.
Read widely in your field. Look at current news, as well as information on related companies. For instance, if you're in the jewelry business, keep tabs on what your competition is doing.
Being well-versed in your company's goings-on will also help you to stand out with management. It will make it easier for you to contribute during meetings when your boss has asked for employee input.
5-2. Keep your skills up-to-date.
Take continuing education classes when possible. Go to training courses. Read current textbooks published in your field. Make sure you keep your skills up-to-date.
Try checking your local community college for courses, or look into an online course.
5-3. Become a member of a professional organization.
Most fields have some type of professional organization. Those organizations will often have local meetings where you can brush up on local news. In addition, they'll likely have large annual meetings where you can meet with other professionals and hear panels and lectures in your field. They may also put out newsletters that provide you with updates about the field.
5-4. Take on extra assignments.
While this step doesn't sound like much fun, it can help you build skills and experience. In addition, your boss will notice that you're willing to take jobs that no one else wants, which can help you when promotion time comes around.
For example, if your boss mentions that there is a new project that requires a team leader, volunteer to head it up.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Dressing Professionally\\n1-1. Know your office's dress code.\\nMost offices will spell out their dress code for you.

This will show that you are committed to sticking with the office's dress code policies.\\n1-2. Find your brands.\\nIt will make it easier for you to keep your wardrobe up if you find particular brands that work for you in your price range.

1,834 | How to Appear on a Game Show | 1. Choosing a Show
1-1. Narrow down your options based on your skill set.
Game shows are most often centered around a particular skill. Shows like "Jeopardy!" and “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?”, for instance, requires contestants to recall obscure facts, while "Wheel of Fortune" tests their ability to solve timed word puzzles. Auditioning for a show that plays to your strengths will increase your chances of walking away a winner.
To figure out what your strong suits are, consider what types of normal games you tend to dominate. If you always beat your friends at Trivial Pursuit, you may be best suited for a game show that tests your trivia skills.
If you’re more the athletic type, you’ll be pleased to know that there are also game shows that challenge contestants’ physical abilities, such as “Wipeout” and “Minute to Win It.”
1-2. Determine what sort of prizes you want to win.
Game shows typically reward winning contestants with either cash or material prizes, such as new cars, household appliances, or vacation packages. Some shows, like “The Price is Right,” offer a combination of both. Having a specific idea in mind of what you hope to win can help you narrow down which show to go on.
Keep in mind that in the U.S., you’ll be expected to pay taxes on any prizes you win. If you think paying the tax on a high-value item might be hard on you financially, you’ll be better off trying out for a show where cash is the main prize.
International contestants on U.S. game shows may be exempt from paying taxes on prize items, depending on the laws of their home country.
1-3. Factor in any personal reasons you have for picking a particular show.
Attractive prize packages aren’t the only reason to go on a game show. It could be that you’re a lifelong fan of the host, or that you have a relative who once appeared on the same show and you want to continue the family legacy. These or other considerations could end up factoring into your decision.
Avid cosplayers, shameless show-offs, and those with a flair for the theatrical might enjoy appearing on “Let’s Make a Deal,” where it’s customary for contestants and audience members to wear elaborate costumes.
Becoming a contestant on “Jeopardy!” can give you the chance to prove your intellectual prowess by going head-to-head with other quick thinkers.
1-4. Keep an eye out for shows that are shot close to you.
Unless you’re on vacation or taking time off from work, your game show experience will probably last no longer than an afternoon. Selecting a show that holds tapings in your area or a nearby city will cut down considerably on the time and expense of traveling, which will be especially helpful if you don’t end up winning.
The majority of the big-name game shows are shot in Los Angeles, California, including “Jeopardy!”, “Wheel of Fortune,” “Let’s Make a Deal,” “The Price is Right,” and “Family Feud.”
“The Price is Right,” “Wheel of Fortune,” and other shows also hold mobile auditions from time to time. If you catch wind that auditions for one of your favorite shows are coming to your area, find a way to be there.
2. Applying as a Contestant
2-1. Check to see whether you meet the show’s eligibility requirements.
Some game shows only ask that contestants be 18 years old and not have appeared on another game show in the past year. Other programs have more rigorous standards, such as a minimum age limit of 21 or a refusal to contestants who've appeared on more than 2 shows in the past 5-10 years. You can find out more about a specific game show’s eligibility requirements by reading through the Rules or Frequently Asked Questions section on the show’s official website.
Under no circumstances are you allowed to be affiliated with the show's production company, parent or syndication network, or any of its sponsors or advertisers.
Being a current employee of any of the organizations connected to the show, or being a friend or family member of a current employee, may also disqualify you from appearing.
2-2. Submit an application to the network that airs the show.
Visit the website of the game show or the network that carries it and look for a link reading “Become a Contestant” or something similar. There, you’ll find a complete list of the show’s eligibility requirements, as well as an application form to appear on the show as a contestant. This form will ask you for you name, home address, age, and any other information needed to confirm that you meet the show’s eligibility requirements.
Some networks also run a short broadcast segment at the end of the show featuring a telephone number or mailing address that you can contact to apply as a contestant.
2-3. Acquire tickets to shows that select contestants from the audience.
In many network game shows such as "The Price is Right" and "Let's Make a Deal," the host chooses contestants from the studio audiences. This means that if you hope to appear on the show, you’ll first need to be in the audience. You can reserve a free ticket online, or pick one up from a promotional vendor in the city where the show is filmed.
Once you manage to score a seat in the audience, being chosen is often simply a matter of luck.
2-4. Complete an online qualifying test if you’re trying out for “Jeopardy!”
“Jeopardy!” is one of the more difficult game shows to make it onto. First, you must create a MyJeopardy! account on the show’s website and fill out an application to appear on the show as a contestant. After that, you’ll be given a time and date to sit for an intensive 50-question online test. You’ll only have one shot to take the test, so make sure you don’t miss your window.
Jeopardy!’s producers don’t publish test results or give clues as to what constitutes a passing score. If you pass, your application will be forwarded to the show’s casting department, and you’ll receive a notification sometime later via email if you’re selected for a formal audition.
You’ll have the best chance of passing your test if you possess a general knowledge of a wide range of topics. It’s recommended that you take advantage of the many free practice tests offered on the Jeopardy! website to prepare yourself for the real deal.
3. Improving Selection Chances
3-1. Familiarize yourself with the format of the show.
If you haven’t already, take some time to study the basic structure and rules of the show you want to try out for. Having a working knowledge of how the game is played will make you more likely to emerge victorious. It will also allow you to focus on the task at hand without having to stop and think about what you’re doing.
For example, “Mental Samurai” is a hybrid trivia-physical challenge show that gives contestants 5 minutes to answer a dozen increasingly-difficult questions while being rotated 360-degrees at high speeds in a specially-designed capsule.
Newer game shows sometimes put out open calls for contestants for their first broadcasts. In this case, it may be impossible to acquaint yourself with the rules or put together a sound strategy before your appearance.
3-2. Make it through one or more rounds of auditions.
Game shows often use auditions or interviews to identify potential contestants who have what they’re looking for. For competitive shows, your audition may take the form of a short test or mock round of gameplay. In other cases, you may simply be asked a few questions designed to make you think on your feet. Do your best to be ready for whatever the show’s producers throw at you.
Many game shows that choose their contestants from the audience “at random” actually conduct brief interviews with each member of the audience prior to taping.
Auditions usually take place well before taping begins, and may be held somewhere other than where the show is taped. You’ll learn more about the audition process if and when you receive a callback for your contestant application.
3-3. Do something to make yourself stand out from other contestants.
Ratings are a game show's bread and butter, and producers are always looking for the most interesting, entertaining, or outlandish contestants. Whether you sport a funny costume, sing and dance in the line to get into the venue, or tell jokes that crack up the show's crew and audience members, being as entertaining as possible will help you make more of an impression on the people in charge of selecting participants.
Think on your feet and do your best to offer witty, humorous, or amusing responses during your audition. If you can catch your interviewer off guard, you're as good as in.
3-4. Be prepared to wait up to 18 months for a callback.
If your application is approved and you pass your audition, you’ll have the chance to be featured as a contestant on your show of choice. The time between the final phase of your audition and your televised appearance could be anywhere from a few weeks to over a year, depending on the show's popularity and the number of other people who qualify.
You’re not guaranteed a callback, even if you successfully make it through your audition. It’s not uncommon for game shows to recruit more contestants than they actually use in case of casting disputes, scheduling conflicts, or cancellations.
Be sure to bring a book with you on the day of your taping. You could end up waiting 8-10 hours to be called onto set.
Tips
Practice for your audition by setting up a mock version of the game with your friends and family. It will also help to brush up on subjects that you think might appear on the test you take as part of your audition.
You’re permitted to appear on a game show if you belong to an actors' union, such as the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) or American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA), as long as your primary income at the time of your appearance comes from non-acting work.
Warnings
You’re free to apply to become a game show contestant as many times as you like, but as previously noted, you can only appear on one show in the course of a single year. If it’s discovered that you’ve violated this rule, any prizes you win may be forfeited after the fact.

Shows like \\\"Jeopardy!\\\" and “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?”, for instance, requires contestants to recall obscure facts, while \\\"Wheel of Fortune\\\" tests their ability to solve timed word puzzles. Auditioning for a show that plays to your strengths will increase your chances of walking away a winner.\\nTo figure out what your strong suits are, consider what types of normal games you tend to dominate. If you always beat your friends at Trivial Pursuit, you may be best suited for a game show that tests your trivia skills.\\nIf you’re more the athletic type, you’ll be pleased to know that there are also game shows that challenge contestants’ physical abilities, such as “Wipeout” and “Minute to Win It.”\\n1-2. Determine what sort of prizes you want to win.\\nGame shows typically reward winning contestants with either cash or material prizes, such as new cars, household appliances, or vacation packages. Some shows, like “The Price is Right,” offer a combination of both. Having a specific idea in mind of what you hope to win can help you narrow down which show to go on.\\nKeep in mind that in the U.S., you’ll be expected to pay taxes on any prizes you win. If you think paying the tax on a high-value item might be hard on you financially, you’ll be better off trying out for a show where cash is the main prize.\\nInternational contestants on U.S. game shows may be exempt from paying taxes on prize items, depending on the laws of their home country.\\n1-3. Factor in any personal reasons you have for picking a particular show.\\nAttractive prize packages aren’t the only reason to go on a game show. It could be that you’re a lifelong fan of the host, or that you have a relative who once appeared on the same show and you want to continue the family legacy. These or other considerations could end up factoring into your decision.\\nAvid cosplayers, shameless show-offs, and those with a flair for the theatrical might enjoy appearing on “Let’s Make a Deal,” where it’s customary for contestants and audience members to wear elaborate costumes.\\nBecoming a contestant on “Jeopardy!” can give you the chance to prove your intellectual prowess by going head-to-head with other quick thinkers.\\n1-4.

If you catch wind that auditions for one of your favorite shows are coming to your area, find a way to be there.\\n2. Applying as a Contestant\\n2-1. Check to see whether you meet the show’s eligibility requirements.\\nSome game shows only ask that contestants be 18 years old and not have appeared on another game show in the past year. Other programs have more rigorous standards, such as a minimum age limit of 21 or a refusal to contestants who've appeared on more than 2 shows in the past 5-10 years.

1,836 | How to Appear to Have Snow Power | 1. Dressing the Part
1-1. Wear gloves that have faux snow on them.
The artificial snow could be made from white/silver glitter, small cotton ball puffs, white rolls of yarn, sparkling white sequins, etc.; choose the one that works for you and either sew or glue the items in place. Make sure it doesn't just look like you glued stuff to your gloves, make it look real.
You may be able to get black gloves for a dollar with snow on them already (from dollar stores).
1-2. Wear all blue and white.
These are the colors a snow character would be likely to prefer, representing the ice and snow of the area she or he comes from. Maybe a light blue dress with white stockings would look good. Or light blue jeans and a white sweater. And, if you can, add a light blue sweatshirt with a white hoodie. Also, when you "make it snow", wearing a long sash on your sleeves will give it a great effect. If the sashes have glitter, even better.
1-3. Wear a simple necklace with a sophisticated charm.
Maybe a jeweled snowflake with simple white beads would be nice.
2. Showing Your Snow Powers
2-1. Act the part.
Try to make someone curious enough to watch you. When you have their attention, make the snow appear to "come out of your hands". Use white glitter or similar items to make it seem like snow. It might seem odd, but you could always play christmas music to set the tone if you wish.
If using real snow, this is best done during wintertime, to make it more believable (the snow would melt in summer).
When you're at your secret place, start to play around in the snow with your bare hands (if you can bear it) and throw it in the air. Do this for a few times then look at your hands. Smile and get ready to do your trick.
2-2. Make the snow appear to "come out of your hands".
If you have very large sleeves, you can try this neat trick. Get two small fans and secretly put them down your sleeves. Get some of the faux snow and put it on top of the fans. Turn on the fans secretly and open your hands wide, so that it goes through your fingers and appears to come out of your hands.
If you can't get the fans, don't worry, just stuff some of the fake snow in your sleeves and twirl around with your sleeves down, causing the snow to slip out of your sleeves, but this is not recommended because you'll look like you'll be dripping wet afterward, slip snow out of your sleeves in moderation!
Practice this a few times before the real deal, in a private place.
2-3. Keep up the act.
While you're "making snow" always look as if you're truly enjoying yourself. Laugh a lot, and twirl around. When you twirl, if you tied sashes to your costume, they will spin and enhance the "magical" effect.
If you're pretending to hide your snow powers, do the following: After you run out of snow, toss the snow on the ground in the air, then seem to notice the person. Start to look worried, run up to the person and beg, "Please don't tell anyone..." and you're done.
2-4. Try this out on your friends before doing it at a fancy dress or cosplay event.
Listen to their suggestions for improving your performance. Then enjoy your time as a snow princess or prince!
Tips
Freeze snow in the freezer in winter, then in summer you can hold some in your hand and show a friend or sibling.
Be sure to clean up the faux snow. If you leave the faux snow, someone is bound to get annoyed at the mess. Recycle it if you can, if it landed on real snow, scoop up the snow and let it melt away leaving behind the items to be disposed of properly.
To add to the dramatic effect if hiding your powers: Before walking to the secret place, put your hoodie on and keep your head low. When you reach your destination, throw the jacket off.
Warnings
Don't make it obvious that you're faking. Be sure to use good acting skills.

1,837 | How to Appear to Read Someone's Mind with Numbers | 1. Predicting a Number (Easy)
1-1. Ask your friend to pick a number.
He should keep this number secret from you. Tell him not to forget, since he'll have to remember it later.
We'll go through an example where your friend picks the number .
Even kids can do the math in this trick, as long as they can multiply and divide by 2. A young kid might need to whisper the number to another person, so she can remind him later.
1-2. Have your friend double the number.
Say "Now double the number you chose, but don't tell me the answer."
In our example, 6 x 2 = .
1-3. Show him 10 fingers.
Ask him to add 10 to his last answer.
12 + 10 = .
1-4. Divide the answer by 2.
Tell your friend you're trying to read his mind, but the number is too big right now. Ask him to divide the answer by 2 to make it smaller.
22 ÷ 2 = .
1-5. Subtract the original number.
Ask him to take the last answer and subtract the original number he picked.
The person in our example picked 6, so he would calculate 11 - 6 = .
1-6. Announce that the answer is 5.
No matter what number your friend chose, he will end up with 5 as his final answer. Announce that you have read his mind, and the last number your friend wrote down is 5. If there are other people in the room, have your friend show them the piece of paper to prove it.
1-7. Know why this works.
Most of these steps are there just to make it hard for people to follow the problem. After you double the chosen number, divide it by two, and subtract the number, you've cancelled out the original number completely. Now it doesn't matter what your friend chose. The answer only depends on the extra numbers and instructions you gave him, which happen to lead to 5 in this trick.
2. The 37 Trick (Intermediate)
2-1. Have someone write down the same digit 3 times.
She should keep the paper hidden from you at all times. A calculator will come in handy for this trick.
For example, she could write down .
2-2. Instruct her to add all three digits together.
Ask the subject of the "mind reading" to separate the three digits and add them together.
In this example, 5 + 5 + 5 = .
2-3. Divide the larger number by the smaller one.
Confirm that the subject now has two numbers written down, a three-digit number and a smaller one. Ask her to take the three digit number and divide it by the smaller one.
555 ÷ 15 = .
2-4. Announce that she's thinking of the number 37.
Whether she chose 111, or 999, or one of the options in between, your volunteer will always end up with 37 as her answer!
2-5. Learn why this works.
There's no deep trick here; these are just properties of the numbers involved. 37 x 3 = 111. Each "jump" up (111 → 222 → 333, etc.) adds another 111, so you're adding 37 multiplied by three each time. Looking at the sum of the digits (1+1+1 → 2+2+2 → 3 + 3 + 3, etc.), you also happen to be adding three each time. By putting this in a division problem, each jump up means dividing by another three each time. These two effects cancel each other out and you get back to 37.
3. Guessing The Secret Digit (Advanced)
3-1. Hand a calculator, pencil, and paper to a volunteer.
This trick involves large numbers, so a calculator that has plenty of space will come in handy. Tell him that you'll be reading his mind, so he should keep everything on the paper and calculator hidden from you.
This trick also requires some quick thinking on your part. It's nothing harder than addition, but you'll need to be fast and error-free.
3-2. Instruct a volunteer to write down three positive, consecutive numbers.
These can be any whole numbers, but they must be consecutive. (There can be no whole numbers between them.)
For example, your volunteer could pick 19, 20, and 21.
If the calculator only has room to display eight digits, the numbers must all be between 1 and 21. If it only has room to display six digits, make it 1 to 9.
3-3. Ask him to multiply the three numbers together.
After he finds the answer on the calculator, have him write it down on the piece of paper.
In our example, 19 x 20 x 21 = .
3-4. Tell the volunteer to repeat this for three other consecutive numbers.
Next, the person you're "mind reading" secretly picks three more consecutive numbers. He multiplies them together and writes them down next to his first answer.
Let's say he picks 12, 13, 14. He multiplies 12 x 13 x 14 = .
3-5. Have him multiply the two products together.
Now the volunteer multiplies his two answers together and writes down the result.
7980 x 2184 = .
3-6. Tell the volunteer to shuffle all but one digit.
Explain that you only have enough power to read one of the digits from his mind. Ask him to pick one secret digit in the number, then write down the other digits after shuffling them in any order.
For example, if he picks 4 as the secret digit, he could shuffle the rest of the digits as .
3-7. Add the shuffled digits as he reads them aloud.
Remind him that he must keep one digit secret. Have him read the other digits slowly and clearly while you add them in your head.
For example, he would read "2... 2... 8... 7... 0... 1... 3." You add these together as he goes, getting a total of 23.
3-8. Find the secret digit.
All of the digits in his answer, including the secret one, will add up to a multiple of 9. Once you know this, there are two ways to find the secret digit. Here they are, using our example:
The non-secret digits add up to 23, and you know the next multiple of 9 is 27. Think 27 - 23 = 4, so the last digit must be .
If you're not sure what the next multiple of 9 is, add the digits in your sum and repeat. For example, 23 → 2 + 3 = 5. Now the next multiple of 9 is 9, and 9 - 5 = .
3-9. Know what to do if the shuffled digits add up to 9.
If you add the digits he spoke out loud and you already have a multiple of 9, there are two possibilities. Either the secret digit is 0, or the secret digit is 9. Make a guess at one of them. If you get it wrong, make a joke ("I knew I should have studied harder in telepathy school"), then guess again with the second possibility.
3-10. Understand why this works.
Any three consecutive numbers includes a multiple of 3, so the product of the trio will also be a multiple of 3. Since you repeat this and multiply the two answers together, you are finding the product of two multiples of three. This product is always a multiple of 9 (since 3 x 3 = 9). All multiples of 9 have the property described above, where all of their digits sum to another multiple of 9.
Tips
There are many more math tricks out there. If you learn algebra or already know it, you can come up with your own variations on the number prediction trick. (Hint: write the number your friend guesses as x, and come up with calculations that cancel out the x.)
Warnings
Don't repeat the same trick a second time in front of the same person.

Instruct a volunteer to write down three positive, consecutive numbers.\\nThese can be any whole numbers, but they must be consecutive. (There can be no whole numbers between them.)\\nFor example, your volunteer could pick 19, 20, and 21.\\nIf the calculator only has room to display eight digits, the numbers must all be between 1 and 21. If it only has room to display six digits, make it 1 to 9.\\n3-3. Ask him to multiply the three numbers together.\\nAfter he finds the answer on the calculator, have him write it down on the piece of paper.\\nIn our example, 19 x 20 x 21 = .\\n3-4. Tell the volunteer to repeat this for three other consecutive numbers.\\nNext, the person you're \\\"mind reading\\\" secretly picks three more consecutive numbers. He multiplies them together and writes them down next to his first answer.\\nLet's say he picks 12, 13, 14. He multiplies 12 x 13 x 14 = .\\n3-5. Have him multiply the two products together.\\nNow the volunteer multiplies his two answers together and writes down the result.\\n7980 x 2184 = .\\n3-6. Tell the volunteer to shuffle all but one digit.\\nExplain that you only have enough power to read one of the digits from his mind. Ask him to pick one secret digit in the number, then write down the other digits after shuffling them in any order.\\nFor example, if he picks 4 as the secret digit, he could shuffle the rest of the digits as .\\n3-7. Add the shuffled digits as he reads them aloud.\\nRemind him that he must keep one digit secret. Have him read the other digits slowly and clearly while you add them in your head.\\nFor example, he would read \\\"2... 2... 8... 7... 0... 1... 3.\\\" You add these together as he goes, getting a total of 23.\\n3-8. Find the secret digit.\\nAll of the digits in his answer, including the secret one, will add up to a multiple of 9. Once you know this, there are two ways to find the secret digit. Here they are, using our example:\\nThe non-secret digits add up to 23, and you know the next multiple of 9 is 27. Think 27 - 23 = 4, so the last digit must be .\\nIf you're not sure what the next multiple of 9 is, add the digits in your sum and repeat. For example, 23 → 2 + 3 = 5. Now the next multiple of 9 is 9, and 9 - 5 = .\\n3-9. Know what to do if the shuffled digits add up to 9.\\nIf you add the digits he spoke out loud and you already have a multiple of 9, there are two possibilities. Either the secret digit is 0, or the secret digit is 9. Make a guess at one of them. If you get it wrong, make a joke (\\\"I knew I should have studied harder in telepathy school\\\"), then guess again with the second possibility.\\n3-10. Understand why this works.\\nAny three consecutive numbers includes a multiple of 3, so the product of the trio will also be a multiple of 3. Since you repeat this and multiply the two answers together, you are finding the product of two multiples of three. This product is always a multiple of 9 (since 3 x 3 = 9). All multiples of 9 have the property described above, where all of their digits sum to another multiple of 9.\\nTips\\nThere are many more math tricks out there. If you learn algebra or already know it, you can come up with your own variations on the number prediction trick. (Hint: write the number your friend guesses as x, and come up with calculations that cancel out the x.)\\nWarnings\\nDon't repeat the same trick a second time in front of the same person.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"The simple rules of numbers create many surprising effects.

1,840 | How to Apply 1920s Makeup | 1. Preparing Your Face
1-1. Tie or pin up your hair.
Before putting on any makeup, you want to make sure your face is clean of any dirt or old makeup. If you have long hair, tie it back before washing your face. If you have short hair, pin any bangs or strands to the side so they don’t get in the way.
1-2. Wash your face.
With your hair out of the way, now you can give your face a good wash to ready it for the new makeup you will be putting on. Use a mild facial cleanser to clean your face, then rinse the soap off with cold water.
1-3. Moisturize your face.
After you’ve finished washing your face, put a light moisturizer on. The moisturizer helps set the makeup you’re getting ready to apply.
There are moisturizers for oily, dry, and normal skin. Use the moisturizer that fits your skin type.
You don’t need a tinted or heavy moisturizer because you will be applying concealer and foundation.
2. Applying Concealer and Foundation
2-1. Apply concealer in your skin tone.
A 1920s face is smooth, creamy, and very even-toned. Find a concealer that matches your skin tone. Once you have a concealer, use it to cover up parts of your face that are darker than others. Often, your skin will be a little darker under your eyes and on the bridge of your nose.
To find the right shade of concealer, test a color on an area of your neck, a little below your ear. The color should be a little lighter than your skin color. You want it to be lighter because the concealer must cover up dark spots on your face.
2-2. Apply a foundation in your skin tone.
After you’ve applied your concealer, you will now want to apply your foundation. Like the concealer, find a foundation in your skin tone. To get the perfect look, you might have to use an older variety of foundation, such as pancake, or a cream meant more for theater than for everyday use.
To allow your skin to breathe, you can thin down your cream foundation by moistening your sponge before dipping it in the base.
2-3. Add a loose powder to your face to help set the makeup in.
Lightly sweep a loose powder over your face. Powder is a great tool to help set your foundation and create a softer look. You can also use the powder to touch up parts of your face throughout the day.
3. Defining Your Eyebrows
3-1. Pluck or conceal your eyebrows to thin them.
Thin eyebrows were fashionable in the 1920s. If you already have thin eyebrows, you won’t have to change anything. If you don’t have thin eyebrows, you can either pluck them or use concealer and foundation to cover some or all of your existing eyebrows.
If you want to pluck your eyebrows to a 1920s style, use a pair of tweezers and shape your eyebrows into a thin arch. You can make your eyebrows a little thinner at the ends.
If you don’t want to pluck, use concealer and foundation to cover your existing eyebrows partially or entirely. In a partial cover, dab the makeup on your eyebrow hairs, leaving a thin line of hair exposed. Layer enough concealer and foundation to make the covered eyebrow match the color of your skin. The covered eyebrow should blend into your face well. To cover your entire eyebrow, put concealer and foundation on all the hairs. After covering, you can draw in thin eyebrows with a pencil.
3-2. Shape your eyebrows in an arch.
Women in the 1920s had arched eyebrows. You can shape your eyebrows into this arch either by plucking or using an eyebrow brush.
If you want to pluck your eyebrows, use tweezers to make a gentle arch shape with thin ends.
If you don’t want to pluck your eyebrows, use an eyebrow brush to brush your eyebrow hairs from the bottom to the top. This will create an arched line. To keep the shape, add a little petroleum jelly to your eyebrows.
3-3. Darken your eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil.
Now that you’ve plucked and/or shaped your eyebrows, use a black or brown eyebrow pencil to darken them. An eyebrow pencil can also help you define your eyebrow shape a little more and make the arch more visible.
Choose an eyebrow pencil color based on the color of your hair. You still want your eyebrows to appear natural, so choose a shade a little darker than your hair color.
4. Putting on Eye Makeup
4-1. Apply mascara to your top and bottom lashes.
1920s eyes were smoky and dark, and women used mascara heavily. To get the same result, apply the darkest black mascara you can find to both your top and bottom lashes. Apply three or more layers to get an added effect.
4-2. Fill your eyelids in with dark eyeshadow.
To keep your eyes on the sooty side, pick a gray-based eyeshadow. With a soft brush, sweep the eyeshadow from the start of your lash line and over your eye socket. Use the brush to blend the eyeshadow in more and soften the edges. You can also use eyeshadow along your lower lash line to better define it.
If you want to use colored eyeshadow, you can! You just have to make sure your eyes remain smoky, and the colors green and blue work best for this.After you apply your colored eyeshadow, blend black eyeshadow into it at the corners of your eyes.
4-3. Use a black kohl eyeliner on your top and bottom lash lines.
A kohl eyeliner is a type of eyeliner that is very smooth and easy to blend, so it’s perfect for the 1920s look. To complete your smoky eyes, use the black eyeliner to draw a line on your top and bottom lash lines. Then blend the eyeliner into your eyeshadow with a brush to create a soft look.
You may want to use a waterproof formulation for all of your eye makeup to avoid unwanted smudging as much as possible.
5. Adding Final Touches
5-1. Find a cheek stain or cream blush with touches of red in it.
1920s style favored rouge. Rouge is a redder form of blush. If red is too strong for your coloring, raspberry or rose blushes are alternatives. Rub blush into the tops of your cheeks, a little bit above the cheekbone. Blend away hard edges, but make sure the color is still evident, as though you just walked in from the cold.
5-2. Shape your mouth into a cupid’s bow.
The 1920s mouth was named the “cupid’s bow” because of its special shape. The cupid’s bow is a mouth with an exaggerated bottom lip and an upper lip with a bow. To make a cupid’s bow, use a waxy dark red lip liner to draw an arch on each side of your top lip. Then draw your lower lip as slightly plumper than it really is by extending slightly on the bottom. Draw both your upper and bottom lips as shorter on the sides. Fill your new lip shape in with pencil before layering matching lipstick over it.
The arches on your top lip should be even, so they look like a bow.
Lip colors in the 1920s were deep reds and brownish reds.
When you are through, your lips should not be as wide as they really are, giving the illusion that you have them puckered and ready for a kiss.
5-3. Paint your nails to add to your look.
Now that you’re all done with your face, go the extra mile and paint your nails! In the 1920s, women painted their nails only in the center. Pick a nail polish shade that matches your lipstick and paint your nails, leaving the half moon and nail tip unpainted.
Tips
If you’re a real fan of the look, learn more about the history of 1920s beauty. Find out more about actresses of the day, as well as Coco Chanel, the designer rumored to have started the more modern, boyish look for females.
If your eye makeup gets too sooty for your taste later in the day and smudging happens, simply clean up any messes with a cotton swab. Carry a few in your purse for your convenience.

1,841 | How to Apply 1960s Style Eye Makeup | 1. Face
1-1. Make sure your face is clean first.
Also, if there is any dry skin on the area you will apply on, moisturize it with a thin non-oil based moisturizer. Makeup looks unpolished on top of flakes. If you choose to use foundation, use a light and thin one. Before you start this, you should also have no makeup on as well. This includes face makeup and mascara, before you start the makeup fun!
1-2. Dust on just a bit of a pink blusher on the apples of your cheeks.
Not very much, you only want just a bit of color. Sixties makeup is all about the eyes, so use face makeup sparingly. Be sure to pick the right shade. Smile as you apply this. Start out by dabbing, and once you apply the desired amount while smiling, smear in with the clean brush or your fingers/hand. Make sure both the cheeks have an even amount.
2. Eyes
2-1. Lightly dust your eyelids with face powder.
2-2. Use a light, neutral colored eyeshadow, and sweep this across your eyelid.
2-3. Trace your natural crease shape with a darker matte brown color.
Use a small and stiff brush to trace, an eyeliner brush will do. This will define your eyes more. Blend it well with a small fluffier brush, but keep it dark.
If you're going for a more theatrical Twiggy-like look, don't blend at all! Use a black gel liner, or liquid, trace your crease shape, let it set, and that's it. You can go back and refine the crease a bit, but keep it very sharp and neat looking.
2-4. With eyeliner, (liquid or gel if you have a steady hand, pencil if you haven't) slowly, with small movements, brush along your lash line.
This is also known as 'feathering'.
2-5. As you go outwards, steadily make the line much thicker, and create a sharp wing.
Make it look neat. (Before the next step, if you want, you may apply false lashes)
2-6. Apply a black colored mascara.
If you want, you can use an eyelash curler(preferably one that has been designed to give volume and lengthen lashes).
2-7. Move the mascara wand in a zigzag pattern through your lashes from the base to the tip and wait at least 10 seconds between applying coats.
This makes your lashes look thicker and longer. Do not try to put on too many layers of mascara as this may make your eyelashes clump together and look "spidery". If you are planning on drawing on your bottom eyelashes like Twiggy's, don't put on much mascara on your bottom lashes.
2-8. Check the overall effect in the mirror, and redo the eyeliner if you think it's necessary, but it shouldn't, if you do the eyeliner after the eyeshadow.
2-9. You can also use false eyelashes, depending on whose look you're emulating.
But generally, you should use eyelashes that are long and thick but still look somewhat natural. Use the appropriate eyelash glue. Some pairs of false eyelashes come with pre-packed glue but it is better if you buy a separate eyelash glue tube - the applicator is often 10 times more precise.
2-10. Follow the package instructions on applying the lashes.
This can be very tricky unless you have experience. If possible, try having someone with a steady hand apply the lashes for you.
3.
3-1. With a steady hand, using a black (or grey, a subtler look) liquid or gel eyeliner, you can draw on your bottom eyelashes.
Use short strokes. They should be spaced apart, shaped like upside down triangles, and they should be straight, not leaning in any particular direction. The last eyelash or two on your outer corner can go in that natural direction, though.
3-2. For a less dramatic alternative, you can draw on smaller, closer together eyelashes that all go in the direction of your outer eye corner.
4. Lips
Apply a matte light pink or coral lipstick.
Nude colored lipstick is great too, especially if you've done the eyes dramatically. If you're going for dramatic then you can perhaps put on a bit of gloss.
Lipstick was quite bright or nude at the time, so red might be a bit too 1950s. If you don't like nude or light lipsticks, just wear a toned down lipstick close to your natural lip color.
Tips
Use a colour that compliments your colouring. If you have darker skin, try a coffee-gold shade on your eyelid.
Don't overdo it. The key is to keep the focus on the eyes, and keep all else minimal.
Do not use any fancy mascara colors. Use only brown or black.
Warnings
If you must use an eyelash curler, be careful, or you will lose lashes.
Do not use baby oil to remove eye makeup; the fragrance and other chemicals can damage your eyes. Pure vegetable oil (soybean, olive, corn, etc.) is fine, as long as you are not allergic to the main ingredient.
Be careful when applying the eyeshadow and try to prevent fallout.
Don't overdo the eyeliner. It should just keep simple.
To put liner on the bottom, put it JUST below the lash line, then "fill out" the outer corner of your eye. Do NOT put it on the inside rim.

1,842 | How to Apply Advantage to Cats | 1. Opening the Tube of Advantage
1-1. Select the appropriate pack of Advantage for cats.
Advantage for cats comes in packs of four or six, and is divided into three weight categories: under 5 pounds (kittens), five to nine pounds (small cats), and over nine pounds (large cats). Advantage for kittens is available in packs of four, and Advantage for small and large cats is available in packs of four or six.
If you are unsure of cat’s weight, weigh them or look at the medical report from their most recent veterinary visit.
Advantage should not be applied to kittens under two pounds, or cats less than eight weeks old.
1-2. Remove the tube from the pouch.
Slide the tube down to the bottom of the pouch, if it is not already there. Next, use scissors to open the top of the pouch. Remove one tube from the pouch.
Use only one tube per application of Advantage.
1-3. Remove the cap.
Opening the tube of Advantage is not as simple as just untwisting the cap. First, using the thumb and index finger of your non-dominant hand, hold the tube upright and away from you and your cat’s eyes and face. Then, use your dominant hand to untwist the cap.
1-4. Open the tube.
Invert the cap and push it back on top of the tube. To break the seal on the tube, twist the cap. After the seal is broken, remove the cap and place it to the side.
2. Applying Advantage to Your Cat
2-1. Part the fur at the base of your cat’s neck.
To apply the Advantage, your cat can be lying down or standing up—just make you can keep them still. Use both hands to part the fur at the base of their neck until you can see their skin. The base of their neck is the preferred application site because it is unlikely that your cat will be able to reach that area with their tongue.
Make sure your cat’s skin is clean and dry before applying the Advantage.
Hold the parted fur with your non-dominant hand so that you can apply the Advantage with your dominant hand.
Have someone else hold your cat if you do not think you are able to hold them and apply the Advantage on your own.
2-2. Apply the Advantage.
With your dominant hand, press the tube directly onto your cat’s skin at the application site. Apply the entire tube of Advantage, without letting it run off their body and onto the floor. If any product lands on another part of their body or on the floor, quickly clean it up with a paper towel or absorbent towel.
You do not need to apply pressure when touching your cat’s skin with the tube.
Make sure the Advantage does not get into your cat’s mouth or eyes. If it gets into their mouth, they will probably start to salivate due to Advantage's bitter taste. If it gets into their eyes, do your best to rinse their eyes with cold water.
Call your veterinarian if Advantage gets into their mouth or eyes.
Wearing gloves is not necessary to apply Advantage.
3. Following the Application of Advantage
3-1. Do not touch the application site.
The application site may be sticky for up to several hours after you have applied the Advantage. If you touch the area within these first few hours, you may end up getting Advantage on your skin. If this happens, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water and do not place your fingers near your eyes or mouth.
Do not allow your children to touch the application site for at least several hours after Advantage application.
Keep other pets away from your cat until the application site is dry.
3-2. Do not shampoo your cat for at least two days.
This will give Advantage the opportunity to absorb fully into your cat’s skin. If you decide to shampoo your cat after two days, make sure to use a soap- or detergent-free shampoo. Shampoos with soap or detergent can strip away the oily layer of your cat’s fur through which the Advantage is absorbed.
Vigorous shampooing can also disrupt the oily layer.
Your cat probably does not want a bath anyway, so you will likely have no problem waiting two days to shampoo them.
Advantage is waterproof and will remain effective after a bath.
3-3. Monitor your cat for side effects.
Fortunately, side effects of Advantage are uncommon. One potential side effect is hair loss at the application site. In addition, if your cat manages to lick at the application site immediately after you apply the Advantage, they will probably start to salivate due to the bitter taste.
The bitter taste is meant to dissuade cats from licking the application site.
4. Storing and Disposing of Advantage
4-1. Dispose of the Advantage tube properly.
If the tube is empty, throw it away or recycle it. If, for some reason, you were not able to empty all of the tube’s contents onto your cat’s skin, contact your local waste and disposal agency for disposal guidance. empty the tube’s contents into an indoor or outdoor drain.
You can also call 1-800-422-9874 for instructions on disposing Advantage.
4-2. Store Advantage away from food and drink products.
Advantage may leak from its packaging and contaminate its surrounding area. To avoid food and beverage contamination, store the Advantage in a separate area (preferably not in the kitchen).
Advantage should be stored in a cool and dry place that pets and children cannot access.
Also, store Advantage in an area away from direct sunlight.
4-3. Wash your hands.
Even if you did not get any Advantage on your hands, it is still a good idea to wash your hands following application. It is especially important to wash your hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, or going to the bathroom.

1,843 | How to Apply Advantage to Dogs | 1. Applying the Initial Dose
1-1. Prepare the dose.
Advantage comes packaged in individual plastic bottles. Each bottle contains one dose for your dog. Remove a bottle from the package and prepare it for use.
Hold the individual Advantage dose upright so the slender end of the tube is at the top. This end is the applicator.
Pull the cap off the tube. You can also snap the end off the dose tube if it's too hard to twist off. You can also use scissors.
Turn the cap upside down and place the other end over the seal at the top of the tube. Twist the cap to break the seal.
1-2. Get your dog in the right position.
Dogs should be standing to apply Advantage safely. Make sure your dog is standing up before you apply Advantage.
Be sure your dog is standing still. Have a second person hold the dog, if necessary.
If your dog is nervous about standing, try using treats to coax your dog into a standing position. You can also use treats to encourage your dog to behave.
1-3. Part the dog's fur.
You want to apply Advantage directly. This way, it will seep into your dog's skin and disperse throughout the body. This will poison any fleas or ticks on your dog's fur, and eliminate flea eggs and larvae.
Locate the middle of the dog's back at the base of its neck between the shoulder blades. You want to apply Advantage on an area where your dog cannot lick it off.
Use one hand to part the fur and expose the skin. Use a disposable hair clip or hair elastic to hold the fur out of the way if your dog is long-haired or has a thick coat. This will help you get the Advantage on the dog's skin, not the fur.
If your dog is nervous, you may have to have someone else hold the dog still while you work.
1-4. Apply Advantage directly to the skin.
If you're applying Advantage to a dog under 25 pounds, only apply the dose between your dog's shoulder blades. For a larger dog, apply a dose between the shoulder blades, on the middle of the back between the hips, and at one point in between these places. Make sure you do not apply Advantage anywhere where your dog can lick.
Place the open tip of the applicator on the exposed skin at the base of the neck.
Squeeze the applicator tube to release the whole dose onto the skin, for a small dog. For a large dog, release about a third of the dose. Release the other two thirds elsewhere on the dog's skin.
Check that all medication has been expelled from the dose tube. This will make Advantage work most effectively.
2. Managing Your Dog's Care Afterwards
2-1. Avoid contact with the area immediately after application.
You want to give Advantage a chance to absorb into your dog's skin. This will increase the chances of it effectively killing and preventing fleas.
Avoid touching the area where the Advantage has been applied until about 1 hour after application, or until the Advantage is completely dry.
If you have another dog, make sure that dog does not lick the area where Advantage was applied.
2-2. Keep the dog dry after application.
If your dog has a monthly bath, bathe him or her before applying Advantage. Advantage is waterproof, but you want to make sure your dog is dry when you apply the first dose.
Advantage takes about 24 hours to absorb in your dog's skin. Therefore, you may want to avoid bathing your dog or allowing him or her to get wet for 24 hours after applying Advantage to ensure full absorption of the treatment.
2-3. Apply Advantage on a monthly basis.
Advantage will be effective for about 4 weeks. It should be reapplied every month to keep your dog safe from fleas and ticks. Always mark the date when you apply Advantage so you know when to safely apply it again.
Advantage will work best to prevent fleas, flea eggs and ticks when used once per month or according to your veterinarian's instructions.
Consult your veterinarian before applying Advantage more frequently than once per month. Severe infestations may need more frequent treatment, but Advantage can cause health problems when applied too frequently.
3. Taking Safety Precautions
3-1. Consult with your vet prior to use.
Any new medication should be run by a vet before use. This is especially important if your dog is on other medication or has existing health problems.
Some dogs do have sensitivities or adverse reactions to Advantage. A vet can let you know how to manage side effects in the event they occur.
3-2. Avoid touching the medication.
A little Advantage on your skin will not cause much harm. However, Advantage should stay out of your eyes and mouth. If you get any Advantage on your skin, wash the area with soap and water.
If you get Advantage in your eye, wash out the area immediately. Then, see a doctor.
See a doctor as soon as possible if you ingest Advantage.
3-3. Watch for signs of an adverse reaction.
There is always a risk of side effects when using medication. It's also possible to overdose on Advantage if you give your dog too high of a dosage. Make sure the Advantage you're using is safe given your dog's size and weight. If you notice any of the following symptoms, contact your vet:
Muscle twitches
Lack of coordination
Confusion
Collapse
Warnings
Avoid getting Advantage in your dog's eyes or mouth. Keep the dog from licking the application site for 24 hours after applying.
Advantage doses are different for dogs and cats and for pets of different sizes and weights, so be sure to use the Advantage dosage that is appropriate for your pet. Check the label to see what size dog the medication is meant for.

1,844 | How to Apply Advantix for Dogs | 1. Preparing to Apply Advantix
1-1. Select the appropriate Advantix dosage for your dog.
Advantix is not a ‘one size fits all’ treatment, so you will need to make sure that you choose the correct dosage. Advantix comes in four dosage levels according to a dog’s weight. If you do not know your dog’s weight, contact your veterinarian or refer to the paperwork from your dog’s most recent veterinary visit.
Advantix comes in packs of four or six.
Small dogs (4 to 10 pounds) – 0.4 milliliters (mL)
Medium dogs (11 to 20 pounds) – 1.0 mL
Large dogs (21 to 55 pounds) – 2.5 mL
Extra-large dogs (over 55 pounds) – 5.0 mL
1-2. Remove the tube of Advantix from its packaging.
You can either separate and peel the foil down with your fingers or use scissors to open the foil packaging. Using scissors may be easier and quicker.
1-3. Remove the cap from the tube.
There is a specific way to remove the cap so that you can dispense the Advantix from the tube; it is not as simple as just twisting off the cap and squeezing out the product. First, make sure that you are holding the tube in the upright position. Next, remove the cap, turn it upside down, and put it back on the tube.
Placing the upside-down cap back on the tube will break the seal on the top of the tube, allowing you to squeeze out the Advantix.
When you see that the seal has broken, remove the cap from the tube and lace it to the side.
2. Applying Advantix
2-1. Have your dog stand up.
You will apply Advantix to various locations along your dog’s back. Having your dog in the standing position will help you apply Advantix more easily and accurately on his skin. If your dog tends to be a bit squirmy, you can have someone gently restrain your dog while you apply the Advantix.
2-2. Part your dog’s fur.
Use your fingers to part the fur until you can see the skin. Advantix needs to be applied to the skin for maximum effectiveness. The first location where you will apply the Advantix is at the start of your dog’s back, right near the base of his neck.
Small and medium dogs will need three Advantix applications along their backs.
Large and extra-large dogs will need four Advantix applications along their backs.
If your dog is extremely furry, it may be helpful to clip away a little bit of hair to make it easier to apply the Advantix.
2-3. Apply the Advantix.
Gently place the tip of the tube on your dog’s skin. Squeeze about 1/3 or 1/4 of the Advantix onto the skin, depending on how many applications your dog will need. You want to be careful not to apply too much Advantix to the skin; this could cause the product to get on your dog’s hair and drip down his side. Not only will this waste the product, but it increases the likelihood that your dog may ingest the Advantix.
Advantix should not be applied if the skin is wet or broken. Dry your dog’s skin if it is wet. If the skin is broken, do not apply the Advantix and contact your veterinarian.
It is not necessary to massage the product into the skin after applying it. Another reason not to massage the product into your dog’s skin is that Advantix can be harmful to human skin.
The remaining applications should be spaced at least a few inches apart down your dog’s back. For large and extra-large dogs, the last dose should be near the top of the tail. For small and medium dogs, the last dose should be near the middle of the back.
Avoid petting the dog for several hours after application, as you may wipe the product off the skin. It might be best to apply Advantix shortly before the dog goes to bed to minimize the chances of accidentally wiping it off.
3. Finishing Up
3-1. Throw away the tube.
If you used the entire tube, you can dispense of it by putting it in the regular trash. If you did not use the entire tube, you should still throw it away. However, do not throw the partially-filled tube in the trash or pour it down the drain. Contact your local waste department to learn how to dispose of the partially-filled tube.
The remaining tubes that were not used should be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place.
3-2. Wash your hands.
Advantix can be harmful to human skin. Even if you are sure that Advantix did not get on your skin, washing your hands thoroughly is still a good idea after applying a product on your dog’s skin. If you notice that Advantix has gotten on your skin by accident, immediately rinse your skin with water for 15 to 20 minutes. Call a poison hotline or your doctor for further treatment recommendations.
3-3. Do not bathe your dog for two days.
The Advantix will need time to be absorbed into your dog’s skin. Bathing your dog would remove the product from your dog’s skin.
Even though Advantix is waterproof, it will take at least two days before it has absorbed enough in the skin so that it will not come off with bathing or swimming.
3-4. Do not let your dog eat the Advantix.
Given that you applied Advantix to your dog’s back, his mouth should not be able to get to the areas where you applied the product. However, if some of the product happened to drip down his sides and land on the floor, he may be able to ingest the product that way. Advantix can be harmful to dogs if ingested, so contact your veterinarian or local pet poison hotline immediately for guidance on treatment.
If you have other pets, keep your dog separated them so that they do not have a chance to ingest the Advantix or get it on their skin.
3-5. Monitor your dog for side effects.
It is rare that Advantix causes side effects in dogs. Potential side effects include lethargy, vomiting and drooling. You may notice that the skin is red where you applied the Advantix, which indicates irritation. Your dog may scratch at the application site if the skin is irritated, or he might just look uncomfortable in general.
If your dog has any of these side effects, take your dog to your veterinarian.
Tips
Advantix is to be applied once a month. If you a miss a dose, apply the next dose as soon as you can, unless it is nearly time for the next dose. Let your know veterinarian know if you have missed a dose.[29]

X
Research source
Do not give Advantix to a cat. One of the active ingredients in Advantix, called permethrin, can be fatal for cats.[34]
X
Research source
There are flea and tick preventatives that are made specifically for cats. Your veterinarian can recommend which preventative to use on your cat.
Advantix should not be given to female dogs who are pregnant or lactating.[35]

1,845 | How to Apply Aftershave Splash | 1. Cleaning Your Face
1-1. Rinse your face with cold water immediately after shaving.
Before you even consider applying aftershave, you want to make sure your face is completely free of shaving cream or leftover hairs. Fill your cupped hands with cold water and rub it thoroughly over the entire area that you shaved. The benefit of cold water is that it closes the pores of your skin which is best for aftershave application. Be gentle as your rub your face so you don’t chafe or irritate the skin.
1-2. Dry your face gently.
Use a dry towel and lightly dab at your face to dry it. Do not rub with a lot of pressure as this can irritate your freshly shaved face. It is also okay for your face to remain slightly damp, you just don’t want it dripping wet.
1-3. Wipe your face with witch hazel.
This is not a mandatory step, but will be beneficial for the best use of aftershave. Take a cotton pad and dampen it with witch hazel and lightly wipe it across the entire area that you shaved. The purpose of this is to help remove any residue that the water rinse left behind. It is a helpful step to clean the face more thoroughly which makes it easier to apply the aftershave.
You can usually purchase witch hazel in the same spot where rubbing alcohol is sold. Cotton pads are usually with cotton balls in the beauty section of stores.
1-4. Apply moisturizer.
Shaving does more than trim the hairs of the face. It also takes off a layer or two of old skin. Because of this, your face can get dried out more easily. Aftershave tends to have alcohol, which also dries the skin out. To counteract this, it is a great idea to use moisturizer specifically designed for men’s faces to lock in moisture before applying aftershave. Besides promoting healthy skin, moisturizer also helps the aftershave stick to the skin better and last longer.
Use a small amount of lotion, as you don’t want to make the face oily. Any regular lotion will work, but you can also get special men’s products by Dove or L’Oreal.
2. Applying Your Aftershave
2-1. Pour aftershave into your palm.
There are a few ways that are recommended for how to do this. One way is to shake 2-3 drops of aftershave into your hand. Less is better than more in this case. The second option is placing your palm over the opening of the aftershave bottle, tipping the bottle upside down briefly, and turning it back upwards. The amount of aftershave this leaves on your hand is typically enough.
2-2. Rub your palms together.
You want to use both hands when applying the aftershave, but you don’t need to pour it directly onto both hands. Rubbing your hands together will transfer enough of the aftershave from one hand to the other. You don’t want to do this for so long that the aftershave all soaks into your hands, just enough to wet them both. 1-2 seconds is enough time.
2-3. Let some of the alcohol evaporate.
Since aftershave tends to have alcohol, which dries out your skin, it is good to let some of it evaporate before rubbing your hands on your face. Once you have the aftershave on both hands, leave your hands open for about 4-5 seconds. This will release some of the alcohol from the aftershave. Be sure not to let it dry for too long or you won’t have any to apply to your face.
The purpose of this step is mainly to avoid some of the burning that tends to accompany applying aftershave, but it also keeps some of the alcohol from drying out your skin.
2-4. Massage the aftershave into your skin.
Now it is time to actually put the aftershave to your face. Gently rub your hands in a downward motion from the top of your cheeks to your jawline. Then swipe each hand up your neck and under your chin. You can massage the skin a little in each area to make sure the aftershave soaks in.
It may be necessary to apply a second coat of aftershave if you feel your face was not thoroughly covered, but you want to avoid applying too much. If you do apply a second coat, try to use slightly less than you used the first time.
Tips
When purchasing aftershave, be sure to note that it is different than cologne. Look at the label to make sure it says aftershave.

1,846 | How to Apply AirStone | 1. Selecting Your AirStone
1-1. Calculate how much stone you need.
Measure the length and width of the wall or surface that you are covering with stone. Multiply those numbers to find the square footage that you need to buy. Also measure the edges and corners, as these require different stones than the flat surface.
The majority of the area will be covered in flat stones. You may also want corner stones or edge stones. Flat stones are cut smooth on both ends to fit tightly together. Edge stones have a rough edge on one side for placement where they’ll be seen on the end of a wall.
Airstone is sold in eight square foot packs of flat stones, six linear foot packs of corner stones, and seven and one half square foot packs of edge stones.
1-2. Determine how much adhesive you need.
AirStone adheres best with adhesive that is specifically designed for it. For interior walls, use AirStone Interior Adhesive. This comes in a bucket that covers 30 square feet of wall. Outdoor AirStone projects should use a tub of Loctite construction adhesive, which covers 10 square feet.
If you prefer to use some other adhesive besides the one designed for AirStone, you are free to do so, but the result may not be what you want.
1-3. Choose from the color palettes available.
Airstone currently offers three colors of stone, which are Autumn Mountain (tan), Birch Bluff (white), and Spring Creek (grey). These collections include stones in a range of colors, so be aware that every stone is not the exact same color.
Since the stones in each color palette include a range of shades, you have a lot of flexibility to match them up with the other colors in the space.
1-4. Buy AirStone from Lowe’s.
AirStone can currently only be purchased in the U.S. at Lowe’s, either online or in the store. AirStone, the manufacturer, does not sell their product directly to consumers. If you order online, you have the option to have your stone shipped in the mail, delivered by Lowe’s delivery service, or set aside for pick up at a local store.
Shipping costs may vary depending on how much stone you order and how far it has to ship.
If you don’t like to order online, go to the nearest Lowe’s and pick out the stone you want.
2. Starting Your Project
2-1. Gather your supplies.
Before you start putting stones on the wall, set out everything you’ll need and cover the floor or counter with a plastic or canvas drop cloth. This prevents a mess in case you drop adhesive. The main supplies you’ll need are the AirStones, the adhesive, a putty knife, and a hacksaw.
It can be useful to take all of the stones out of the box at this point.
2-2. Lay the stones out and look at the variety.
A primary feature of AirStone is the range of colors and sizes which create a natural look of variation. Lay the stones out and group them by size or color so that as you apply them to the wall you can pick from the piles. Purposefully randomizing the stones gives the most desirable look.
This will add time to your process and it isn’t vital, but it is a helpful way to get the best look.
2-3. Make a template.
Using the measurements of the area the stone will go, make a sketch on paper with the measurements. Use painter’s tape, or basic masking tape, to make a template on the floor using the measurements.
This helps you visualize where the stones will go. It takes longer in the beginning, but it speeds up the process once you begin applying them to the wall.
2-4. Lay the stones out on the template.
Since the stones come in multiple shades and sizes, laying them in a template helps you visualize how they will fit on the wall. Lay them out so that none of the seams match up and so the colors are distributed around randomly.
This also gives you a chance to see how many stones you’ll need to cut to fit the area perfectly.
2-5. Clean the surface before you apply the stone.
Take a rag and wet it with warm water and a mild soap or cleaner. Wipe the entire surface carefully to remove any dust or debris that would hinder the adhesive from sticking. Take a dry cloth and dry the surface after you wipe it thoroughly.
Allow the surface to air dry if necessary.
3. Placing the Stones
3-1. Start with a corner piece.
If the section you are covering includes a corner, always place a corner piece to start the row of stones. This keeps you from getting to the corner with too little room to hang a piece. Start with a corner piece for each row.
3-2. Spread adhesive on the back of the stone.
Take your putty knife and scoop up some adhesive from the bucket. Don’t get too much or you might drop it off of the knife. Gently spread the adhesive.
It’s not necessary to cover the entire back of the stone in adhesive, but cover roughly 90%. The adhesive will spread some when pressed to the wall.
Another option for putting adhesive on the stone is to use a tube of adhesive with a caulk gun. Be sure to have a wet rag to wipe excess adhesive from the tube. A putty knife will still help you spread the adhesive.
3-3. Press the stone gently into place on the wall.
AirStone’s strong adhesive does not require lots of pressure for it to stick. Gently lay the stone against the wall and hold it for a few seconds. Start on either the left or the right of the area.
If you realize you’ve placed a stone in the wrong spot, it can be removed up to 30 minutes after it has been stuck.
3-4. Place the following stones tightly together in a line.
Once you have the initial stone placed, place the following stones in a straight line. Push the edge of each new stone you place tightly against the one before it. Cut the final stone in the line to fit, as needed.
For walls that require roughly 10 or more stones, place four or five on one end of the wall, followed by four or five on the other end of the wall. Keep adding stones until the line meets in the middle, and cut stones if necessary.
3-5. Use a hacksaw to cut stones to shorter lengths.
When you get to the end of a row, you may not have a stone that is short enough to fit the spot. Use a sharp hacksaw to cut a stone to the length you need. Be sure to measure before you cut so you get the correct length.
Each package of AirStone includes a variety of sizes, so check your pieces first to see if you have a piece that fits without being cut.
3-6. Stagger the seams in each line of stones.
Once you place an entire row of stones, watch carefully on the second row to ensure that the ends of stones in each line do not form a two-row seam. The variety of stone lengths comes in handy to help with this.
3-7. Wipe up excess adhesive immediately with a damp cloth.
If you get any adhesive on the front of the stones, on your hands, or on other surfaces, wipe it up quickly. A damp cloth will wipe the adhesive away easily and won’t leave any residue. Don’t let it sit for more than 30 minutes or it will begin to dry.
3-8. Allow at least six, and up to 48 hours, of drying time.
Once you’ve placed all of the AirStone on the wall, let the adhesive sit untouched. The material of the wall and the room temperature can affect drying time. The room temperature should be at least 60 for 48 hours after the installation.
Be sure not to push anything against the wall or bump it while the adhesive dries.
If AirStone is installed around a fireplace or other heating element, don’t light a fire or turn the heat for during this two day drying period.
Tips
Use edge pieces at the end of a wall where people will see the end of the stone. Edge pieces of a natural look on one end rather than a smooth-cut look.

1,847 | How to Apply Almond Oil to Hair | 1. Doing an Extensive Treatment
1-1. Rinse your hair and comb it out.
Almond oil absorbs most readily into wet hair. Rinse your hair with warm water to help soften the bonds of your hair. Use a comb to brush out the tangles before you apply your almond oil conditioning treatment.
1-2. Heat up the almond oil.
Put a small bowl of the almond oil in the microwave and heat it up in 10 second increments until it's warm but not too hot. You want it to be warm to the touch so that the heat will open the outer cuticles of your hair. This will make it easier for moisture to penetrate into your strands.
Make sure to test the warmth of the oil by holding the back of your hand an inch or so away from the oil so that you don't get burned.
Don't have any almond oil handy but you do have some almonds? If so, the easiest way to make almond oil is by blending a cup of raw almonds with 2 Tbsp. of olive oil. If the paste is too thick, simply add more olive oil. Blend well. Store the mixture in the fridge for two weeks and then filter it into a new glass container for storage, ready for use.
1-3. Rub the oil into your scalp.
Put a small amount of almond oil onto your palm and apply it to your scalp around the root area. Using your fingers, gently start massaging at the front of your head, working your way back to the crown of your head and then massage at the nape, working up towards the crown. This will help stimulate new hair growth, condition your roots, and protect your hair.
Massaging into the roots can also help prevent dandruff.
1-4. Use a wide-toothed comb to disperse the oil.
Comb it from your roots to the tips of your hair. Make sure all of your hair gets coated with a small amount of oil. This may require applying a few more drops to your ends.
1-5. Cover your hair.
Put on a shower cap and let the oil absorb into your scalp and hair for about an hour. If you have especially dry hair, consider leaving it on overnight.
1-6. Shampoo your hair.
Use shampoo to wash the oil from your hair. If you rinse without shampooing, it'll leave your hair looking oily. Shampoo your hair just once, and apply it to your scalp in the same way you applied the oil. Start at the front of your head, work your way towards your crown, and then massage from the nape area up to the crown.
1-7. Rinse and dry your hair.
Rinse out the shampoo and pat your hair with a towel. Once it dries, your hair will look silky and shiny.
1-8. Repeat once a week for best results.
Doing regular almond oil treatments will help foster new hair growth over time. It will also make your hair strong, smooth and soft by sealing in moisture.
2. Doing a Quick Fix
2-1. Comb your hair.
Comb your dry hair until it's tangle-free. Start at the ends of your hair and work your way up to prevent painful snagging and breakage.
2-2. Rub a few drops of almond oil into your palms.
Just a few drops, less than half a teaspoon of almond oil, should be enough to coat your hair. You don't want to go overboard, or your hair will end up looking oily for the rest of the day.
2-3. Run your fingers through your hair.
Start at the ends of your hair and then slowly work up into the strands, stopping at least 5 inches (12.7cm) from the scalp. Coating the ends of your hair with almond oil will tame flyaways and frizz and give your hair a sleeker look.
Don't apply it too close to your roots, or your hair will look oily.
2-4. Apply it to the tips as needed.
Using almond oil is a great way to protect your hair from dryness and split ends. Put a few drops onto your fingers and apply the oil to the very tips of your hair a few times a day, or however often you need, to keep your hair strong and beautiful.
Tips
Use regularly as a natural treatment.
Eating a few almonds every day, in your cereal, as a midday snack, or in a salad can aid hair health.
Try making a moisture mask using 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of organic almond oil, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) raw honey to lock in moisture and mend split ends and two drops of pure tea tree oil to stimulate hair growth and sooth scalp. Allow it to sit 30 minutes in a cap or wrapped in a towel to keep it from dripping. Works best on towel dried hair and your should double mixture for long hair.

1,848 | How to Apply Amla Oil | 1. Conditioning Your Hair with Amla Oil
1-1. Choose organic, cold-pressed plant oil, if possible.
Look to online stores or specialty markets to find 100% pure amla oil. Don't forget to check the ingredients list to make sure there are no dyes, fragrances, preservatives, and other additives (especially if you’re allergic or have a sensitive scalp).
You can buy amla in powder form as well, if you like. You'll have to make a paste out of it by adding ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of water for every 1/2 cup (64 grams) of amla powder before applying it to your hair.
1-2. Do a spot test to check for any signs of an allergic reaction.
Pour a dime-sized amount of amla oil onto your inner forearm or wrist. Then, wait 24 hours to see if you experience a rash or any redness. If you have a reaction, don’t use the amla oil. If nothing happens, it’s safe to use on your scalp.
If you do have a reaction, note that it could also be from any base oils in the blend like coconut, jojoba, or argan oil. Check the ingredients list if you have known allergies or reactions to oil-based products in the past.
1-3. Dampen your hair and part it down the middle.
Spritz your hair with water and comb it through until all of it is adequately damp. Then, use your fingers or a comb to part your hair down the middle.
Moisture raises the outer cuticle layer of the hair, allowing the oil to soak in deeper in a shorter period of time, so it’s best to apply it to damp hair.
If you’ve already shampooed your hair in the shower, step out and apply the amla oil in place of your usual conditioner.
1-4. Massage your scalp with about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil.
Pour about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil into your palm and carefully pour it onto your scalp. Use your fingers to massage it in, running it down the length of your hair.
It’s normal to feel a slight cooling effect from the oil.
1-5. Use a palm full of oil on each section of your hair until it’s soaked.
Pour more amla oil into your palm and massage it into front, sides, sides, and back of your hair until all the strands have been covered. If you have areas where your scalp is dry, itchy, or balding, apply a little extra to those parts.
Make sure to coat the tips of your hair, especially if your hair is dried out and prone to split ends.
1-6. Wrap your hair in a warm towel for 15 minutes.
Warm up a towel by putting it in the dryer on high heat for a few minutes. Then, wrap your oiled hair with the towel and let it sit for 15 minutes. This will help the oil soak into your strands and scalp.
You can also dampen a towel with hot water and then wrap your hair with it.
Certain blends of amla oil call for leaving it on for up to 2 hours, so refer to the instructions on the bottle.
1-7. Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until all of the oil is out.
Rinse the hair out with just warm water if you’re using amla oil in place of your conditioner. Use your normal shampoo and conditioner to rinse the oil away if you’re using the oil as a moisturizing treatment on previously soiled hair.
The oil is gone when you squeeze water out of your hair and don’t see any translucent swirls in the water.
If you have dry or frizzy hair, use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to retain your hair’s natural oils.
1-8. Condition your hair with amla oil 1 or 2 times per week for 16 weeks.
If you’re trying to grow your hair out or repair dry, damaged hair, do an amla oil treatment once or twice a week. You can use it more often if you’d like, just note that your hair might appear oily and you might give off a particularly pungent scent! It may take about 16 weeks before you notice an improvement.
You can also do a mini-application between washes to tame frizz by rubbing a quarter-sized amount onto your hands and running your fingers through the tips of your hair.
2. Using the Oil as an Overnight Hair and Scalp Treatment
2-1. Part your dry hair down the middle with your fingers or a comb.
Parting your hair will make it easier to apply the oil to each section (the sides and back). It will also help the oil concentrate at the top of your scalp, an area more prone to dryness and itching.
If you have a particular area of your scalp that is dry or flaky, part your hair so that part is exposed and you can focus the oil in that area.
2-2. Pour ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil into your palm and massage your scalp.
Cup your hand and pour as much amla oil into your palm as you can hold, which will probably be around ⁄4 cup (59 mL). Then, pour it into your scalp and let the oil soak into the roots of your hair.
If the amla oil came in a squeeze bottle, feel free to squeeze it onto your hair instead.
2-3. Apply more oil until each strand becomes dampened with amla oil.
Keep applying the oil until every strand is soaked from root to tip. If you have curly hair, it may help to comb it through with a wide-toothed comb.
Apply extra oil in areas that are particularly dry, itchy, or balding (like the roots near the crown of your head or the tips of your hair).
2-4. Bunch your hair up and cover it with a shower cap.
Use clips or loose elastic bands to bunch your hair up. Then, cover your head in a shower cap to protect your pillowcase and sheets from getting oily.
The shower cap will also help retain heat coming from your head overnight, which will help open the hair follicles so the oil can soak in better.
2-5. Rinse your hair with warm water, shampoo, and conditioner in the morning.
Once you wake up, rinse the oil out of your hair with warm water until there’s no sign of the oil left in your hair. Then, apply your usual shampoo and conditioner.
Let your hair get saturated with water and squeeze a little out into your palm to see if you notice any translucent swirls in the water. If there are none, continue with your regular hair washing routine.
3. Applying Amla to Your Skin
3-1. Use a few drops of amla oil to moisturize and tone the skin on your face.
Wash away dirt and makeup with your usual cleanser then deposit 3 to 5 drops of amla oil onto your palms. Rub your hands together and work the oil into your skin, massaging your face upward and outward from your nose.
Be careful not to get the oil in your eyes because it will sting!
3-2. Make a sugar scrub with amla oil to remove dead skin.
Create an exfoliant by mixing 1 cup (240 mL) of amla oil with 1/2 cup (64 grams) of sugar and 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of rose water. Gently rub the mixture onto your face or body, then wash it off with warm water and pat your skin dry.
Avoid exfoliating on areas with open wounds, sores, or acne lesions because this may increase irritation and redness.
Don’t harshly scrub your skin, especially the sensitive skin on your face!
Do this treatment once or twice a week to keep your skin fresh and glowing.
3-3. Massage pure amla oil onto your skin as an anti-aging treatment.
Take a spa day for yourself and massage your face and body with a liberal amount of amla oil so that your skin is fully soaked. Do this either before or after you shower. If you choose to leave it on throughout the day, make sure you’re okay with the smell!
Make sure to cover all of the areas that are prone to wrinkles, discoloration, or other signs of aging that you might be concerned about.
Amla promotes the production of procollagen, a precursor to collagen to maintain healthy skin tissue, shrink pores, and repair damage.
3-4. Treat dry, flaky skin with an overnight application.
If you have dry patches of skin on your elbows, feet, arms, or back, rub amla oil onto your skin before going to bed. Use about 1 or 2 quarter-sized amounts of amla oil on each section of your skin.
If you’re putting it on your feet, wear socks to avoid slipping when you get up during the night or in the morning.
3-5. Soothe and even your skin tone with an amla and papaya facial mask.
Combine 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of amla oil and 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of mashed papaya and dab or smear it onto your face. Let it sit for 15 minutes and then wash your face with cool water.
If you have fresh amla fruit, use 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of the juice along with 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of mashed papaya.
Do this treatment every other day to ease redness and correct discoloration on your face.
Tips
If you’re trying to grow your hair out quickly, apply amla oil to your hair twice a week.
If your hair is extremely dry or damaged, avoid using shampoos that contain sulfates because they strip your hair of its natural oils.
Amla oil can smell quite pungent, so keep in mind that you might give off its scent for a day or two after using it (or until your next full shower).
Warnings
Always perform a spot test to check for an allergic reaction.

If nothing happens, it’s safe to use on your scalp.\\nIf you do have a reaction, note that it could also be from any base oils in the blend like coconut, jojoba, or argan oil. Check the ingredients list if you have known allergies or reactions to oil-based products in the past.\\n1-3. Dampen your hair and part it down the middle.\\nSpritz your hair with water and comb it through until all of it is adequately damp. Then, use your fingers or a comb to part your hair down the middle.\\nMoisture raises the outer cuticle layer of the hair, allowing the oil to soak in deeper in a shorter period of time, so it’s best to apply it to damp hair.\\nIf you’ve already shampooed your hair in the shower, step out and apply the amla oil in place of your usual conditioner.\\n1-4. Massage your scalp with about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil.\\nPour about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil into your palm and carefully pour it onto your scalp. Use your fingers to massage it in, running it down the length of your hair.\\nIt’s normal to feel a slight cooling effect from the oil.\\n1-5. Use a palm full of oil on each section of your hair until it’s soaked.\\nPour more amla oil into your palm and massage it into front, sides, sides, and back of your hair until all the strands have been covered. If you have areas where your scalp is dry, itchy, or balding, apply a little extra to those parts.\\nMake sure to coat the tips of your hair, especially if your hair is dried out and prone to split ends.\\n1-6. Wrap your hair in a warm towel for 15 minutes.\\nWarm up a towel by putting it in the dryer on high heat for a few minutes. Then, wrap your oiled hair with the towel and let it sit for 15 minutes. This will help the oil soak into your strands and scalp.\\nYou can also dampen a towel with hot water and then wrap your hair with it.\\nCertain blends of amla oil call for leaving it on for up to 2 hours, so refer to the instructions on the bottle.\\n1-7. Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until all of the oil is out.\\nRinse the hair out with just warm water if you’re using amla oil in place of your conditioner. Use your normal shampoo and conditioner to rinse the oil away if you’re using the oil as a moisturizing treatment on previously soiled hair.\\nThe oil is gone when you squeeze water out of your hair and don’t see any translucent swirls in the water.\\nIf you have dry or frizzy hair, use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to retain your hair’s natural oils.\\n1-8. Condition your hair with amla oil 1 or 2 times per week for 16 weeks.\\nIf you’re trying to grow your hair out or repair dry, damaged hair, do an amla oil treatment once or twice a week. You can use it more often if you’d like, just note that your hair might appear oily and you might give off a particularly pungent scent! It may take about 16 weeks before you notice an improvement.\\nYou can also do a mini-application between washes to tame frizz by rubbing a quarter-sized amount onto your hands and running your fingers through the tips of your hair.\\n2. Using the Oil as an Overnight Hair and Scalp Treatment\\n2-1. Part your dry hair down the middle with your fingers or a comb.\\nParting your hair will make it easier to apply the oil to each section (the sides and back). It will also help the oil concentrate at the top of your scalp, an area more prone to dryness and itching.\\nIf you have a particular area of your scalp that is dry or flaky, part your hair so that part is exposed and you can focus the oil in that area.\\n2-2. Pour ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of amla oil into your palm and massage your scalp.\\nCup your hand and pour as much amla oil into your palm as you can hold, which will probably be around ⁄4 cup (59 mL). Then, pour it into your scalp and let the oil soak into the roots of your hair.\\nIf the amla oil came in a squeeze bottle, feel free to squeeze it onto your hair instead.\\n2-3. Apply more oil until each strand becomes dampened with amla oil.\\nKeep applying the oil until every strand is soaked from root to tip. If you have curly hair, it may help to comb it through with a wide-toothed comb.\\nApply extra oil in areas that are particularly dry, itchy, or balding (like the roots near the crown of your head or the tips of your hair).\\n2-4. Bunch your hair up and cover it with a shower cap.\\nUse clips or loose elastic bands to bunch your hair up. Then, cover your head in a shower cap to protect your pillowcase and sheets from getting oily.\\nThe shower cap will also help retain heat coming from your head overnight, which will help open the hair follicles so the oil can soak in better.\\n2-5. Rinse your hair with warm water, shampoo, and conditioner in the morning.\\nOnce you wake up, rinse the oil out of your hair with warm water until there’s no sign of the oil left in your hair. Then, apply your usual shampoo and conditioner.\\nLet your hair get saturated with water and squeeze a little out into your palm to see if you notice any translucent swirls in the water. If there are none, continue with your regular hair washing routine.\\n3. Applying Amla to Your Skin\\n3-1. Use a few drops of amla oil to moisturize and tone the skin on your face.\\nWash away dirt and makeup with your usual cleanser then deposit 3 to 5 drops of amla oil onto your palms. Rub your hands together and work the oil into your skin, massaging your face upward and outward from your nose.\\nBe careful not to get the oil in your eyes because it will sting!\\n3-2. Make a sugar scrub with amla oil to remove dead skin.\\nCreate an exfoliant by mixing 1 cup (240 mL) of amla oil with 1/2 cup (64 grams) of sugar and 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of rose water. Gently rub the mixture onto your face or body, then wash it off with warm water and pat your skin dry.\\nAvoid exfoliating on areas with open wounds, sores, or acne lesions because this may increase irritation and redness.\\nDon’t harshly scrub your skin, especially the sensitive skin on your face!\\nDo this treatment once or twice a week to keep your skin fresh and glowing.\\n3-3. Massage pure amla oil onto your skin as an anti-aging treatment.\\nTake a spa day for yourself and massage your face and body with a liberal amount of amla oil so that your skin is fully soaked. Do this either before or after you shower. If you choose to leave it on throughout the day, make sure you’re okay with the smell!\\nMake sure to cover all of the areas that are prone to wrinkles, discoloration, or other signs of aging that you might be concerned about.\\nAmla promotes the production of procollagen, a precursor to collagen to maintain healthy skin tissue, shrink pores, and repair damage.\\n3-4. Treat dry, flaky skin with an overnight application.\\nIf you have dry patches of skin on your elbows, feet, arms, or back, rub amla oil onto your skin before going to bed. Use about 1 or 2 quarter-sized amounts of amla oil on each section of your skin.\\nIf you’re putting it on your feet, wear socks to avoid slipping when you get up during the night or in the morning.\\n3-5. Soothe and even your skin tone with an amla and papaya facial mask.\\nCombine 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of amla oil and 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of mashed papaya and dab or smear it onto your face. Let it sit for 15 minutes and then wash your face with cool water.\\nIf you have fresh amla fruit, use 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of the juice along with 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of mashed papaya.\\nDo this treatment every other day to ease redness and correct discoloration on your face.\\nTips\\nIf you’re trying to grow your hair out quickly, apply amla oil to your hair twice a week.\\nIf your hair is extremely dry or damaged, avoid using shampoos that contain sulfates because they strip your hair of its natural oils.\\nAmla oil can smell quite pungent, so keep in mind that you might give off its scent for a day or two after using it (or until your next full shower).\\nWarnings\\nAlways perform a spot test to check for an allergic reaction.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Amla oil comes from a fruit known as the Indian gooseberry and is most often used in ayurveda to promote strong, shiny hair and moist, glowing skin.

1,849 | How to Apply Annie Sloan Wax | 1. Getting the Wax Ready
1-1. Allow the chalk paint to dry before applying the wax.
Annie Sloan wax is meant to give an extra sheen to furniture that has already been painted with chalk paint. Read through the painting instructions and apply several coats to your furniture before you begin waxing it.
Aim for even coverage when using your chalk paint. Thin, level coats will make applying the wax easier.
1-2. Smear the wax onto a paper plate.
Scoop the wax onto a knife and put it on a paper plate. This will give you open access to the wax while you're using it and allow you to mix it with other products as needed. Although you can keep the wax in its packaging, you may not be able to mix the amount you need with mineral spirits.
1-3. Mix your wax with mineral spirits if it is hard to work with.
Mineral spirits are a type of paint thinner that can help make the wax more pliable. The ratio of wax to mineral spirits should be about 9:1. Add a small amount of mineral spirits to your wax and mix it in with your knife if is difficult to spread.
When working with mineral spirits, read the label carefully and take all safety precautions that are directed on the label.
1-4. Dab a wax brush into the wax.
The wax should lightly coat the tip of your brush. If you do not have a wax brush, you can use a lint-free cloth as an alternative. Wax brushes, however, will provide more even coats.
Wax brushes can be purchased at most craft or hardware stores.
2. Applying the Wax
2-1. Massage the wax onto a small section of the furniture.
Choose a small area of your furniture, like a quarter of the tabletop or one leg on the chair, to apply the wax first. Apply the wax to the furniture in circular motions. Massage in the direction of the grain to thoroughly coat the furniture in wax.
Because Annie Sloan wax enhances the color of chalk paint, the wax should appear to "darken" your color slightly.
2-2. Wipe a cloth in the direction of the grain to remove excess wax.
Using a separate lint-free cloth, press it along the furniture in the direction of the grain. This will remove any extra wax to keep your furniture from having a sticky texture.
2-3. Repeat this process on all areas of the furniture.
Continue coating the furniture in its first layer of wax until you have covered the entire surface. After you think you've covered the entire piece of furniture, do a quick check before applying the second layer of wax. You will want to apply all wax coatings evenly.
2-4. Apply second and third layers of wax.
For most pieces of furniture, 2-3 layers is sufficient. Add more layers to the furniture in exactly the same way you applied the first coating. Continue applying coats until you are satisfied with the wax's color.
You do not need to wait for the wax to dry in between coats.
3. Adding Finishing Touches
3-1. Let the wax dry for 24 hours.
After applying your last coat of wax, let it dry for at least 24 hours before buffing or using your furniture. This will give the wax time to adhere to the furniture and last longer.
3-2. Use a lint-free cloth to buff the furniture.
After 24 hours have passed, take a clean, lint-free cloth and rub it around the furniture in circles. This should bring out a glossier shine in your wax. If you prefer a more matte look, skip the buffing process and begin using your furniture after the wax has dried.
3-3. Reapply the wax later, as needed.
Annie Sloan wax is meant to be temporary and periodically applied. If you notice that your furniture looks dull or is more prone to fingerprints, the wax may have worn off. Apply another layer as soon as you can to keep your furniture clean and the chalk paint undamaged.
How long a wax application will last depends on how often the piece of furniture is used and how roughly it is handled.
For instance, a coffee table may need to be waxed every year or so if it’s used often.
Tips
Avoid using Annie Sloan wax on outdoor furniture. Wax is not meant to hold up against the elements and may unseal if left outside.[9]

1,850 | How to Apply Anointing Oil | 1. Blessing Yourself and Others
1-1. Place a small amount of oil in a container.
Historically, anointing oil was placed in a metal container with a sponge. You can use whatever you have available, like a plastic or ceramic bowl. Pour out a small amount of your anointing oil to make it easier to access.
1-2. Wipe your right thumb in the anointing oil.
Carefully dip the pad of your right thumb into the oil. Make sure a good amount sticks to the tip of your thumb. Wait for a few seconds to allow any drips of excess oil fall off back into the container.
The right hand is considered holy and using it may bring you closer to God.
1-3. Draw a cross with the oil in the middle of the person’s forehead.
Ask the person you are anointing to step or kneel close to you. Use your oil-dipped thumb to draw a small cross in the middle of their forehead.
Be gentle as you do this to convey a sense of peacefulness.
Never anoint someone without their explicit permission.
You can also anoint yourself by applying the oil to your own forehead.
1-4. Cross the anointing oil over any sick or injured areas.
If someone is sick or injured, they may have asked you to specifically bless that area of their body. Use your thumb to carefully draw a cross over the area that the person is having trouble with. This could be a broken bone, a head cold, or even a full-body disease.
If the person’s entire body is sick, you can draw the cross over their forehead.
1-5. Bless yourself or the other person in the name of God.
As you draw the cross, say a short blessing to anoint the person or yourself with the Holy Spirit. You can say your own blessing or use one from the church.
Say something like, “Robby Helvey, I anoint you with this oil in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.”
1-6. Pray for any specific needs.
Ask the person that you are anointing what ails them or think about what needs to change in your life. You can pray about health, employment status, or general well-being. Make this prayer specific to the person that you are anointing.
Your prayer can sound something like, “God, I ask that you bless Robby today and help him with his unemployment status. Please let him find a decent, well-paying job soon to provide for his family.”
2. Applying Anointing Oil to Your Home
2-1. Pour the anointing oil into a container that is easy to carry.
Use a small dish, like a bowl, to pour out a small amount of your oil. Make sure you can carry it around your home easily so that you can take it from room to room.
You won’t need a lot of oil to anoint your home since you will only be dabbing a little bit of oil onto each doorframe.
2-2. Dab one of your fingers into the anointing oil.
Carefully dip 1 finger into the oil so that a little bit sticks to the pad of your finger. You can use any finger on either of your hands. Wait a few moments for the excess oil to drip off.
You can stick with your right thumb if you are more comfortable with it.
2-3. Touch each doorframe in your home with the oil.
Walk from room to room with your container of oil. As you pass through each doorway, gently touch the doorframe with the oil from your hands. Dip your finger into the oil as you run out.
Don’t let the oil drip down the doorframe. Apply just enough to leave a mark.
2-4. Say a prayer to bless your home as you walk through it.
Invite God and the holy spirit to enter your home and bless it. Ask for your home to be considered a Godly and loving place for all those who enter it.
You can say something like, “God, I ask you to bless my home. Please let everything said and done in this home be pleasing to you.”
3. Blessing Your Oil
3-1. Purchase olive oil from your local grocery store.
Olive oil is significant because it is mentioned in the Bible and other religious texts. You can use plain olive oil, extra virgin olive oil, or scented olive oil.
Religious stores often sell olive oil that are scented with frankincense and myrrh.
3-2. Place the oil in a special container.
Since olive oil jars are not very attractive, transfer your olive oil to a secondary container. You can use a small jar that has some meaning to you or a plastic container with a lid. Make sure you use something that is airtight so your oil doesn’t leak over time.
Most religious book stores sell special containers for anointing oil.
3-3. Bless your anointing oil if you are allowed to do so.
Check with your religious denomination to make sure that you as a layperson can anoint your oil on your own. If you can, hold a bottle of olive oil in your hands and say a small blessing or prayer to ask God to anoint your oil.
3-4. Approach a church leader to bless your oil if you cannot.
In some religions, like Catholicism, laypeople cannot anoint their own oil. Ask your religious leader to perform a small ceremony to bless your oil and ask God to make it holy.
Most often, your religious leader will hold the open container of oil, state their religious status, and then say a small prayer to bless the oil.
3-5. Store your oil in a cool, dry place.
Your anointing oil can last for a long time, depending on how often you use it. Keep your oil in its airtight container out of the sun in an area that stays cool. A kitchen cabinet is a great place to keep your oil.
Tips
Using anointing oil is all about blessing yourself, other people, or your home. Use prayer to make this oil holy and invite God into your life.

1,851 | How to Apply Apple Cider Vinegar to Hair | 1. Mixing the Apple Cider Vinegar Hair Solution
1-1. Find a raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar.
When shopping for the apple cider vinegar to apply to your hair, choose an unfiltered apple cider vinegar that is cloudy rather than clear. Clear apple cider vinegars are pasteurized to remove the sediment that makes raw apple cider vinegar cloudy. The sediment contains the nutrients that are beneficial for your hair, so it is best to use a raw, unfiltered vinegar product.
Most organic apple cider vinegars are unpasteurized, so it is a good idea to check organic food stores.
1-2. Measure out equal parts apple cider vinegar and water.
To make an apple cider vinegar solution for your hair, use 1 part water to every 1 part apple cider vinegar. For example, if you are making a large batch of the rinse, try mixing 8 ounces (230 g) of apple cider vinegar for every 8 ounces (230 g) of water.
If your skin is sensitive, try a more diluted mixture, such as 1 part apple cider vinegar to every 2 or 3 parts water. This will make the rinse less acidic and easier on your skin.
Use warm water to make the application of the solution more comfortable.
1-3. Mix the ingredients in a cup or spray bottle.
Once you have measured the ingredients to your preferred ratio, pour the apple cider vinegar and water into a cup or spray bottle. Shake or stir with a spatula or spoon to mix well.
Using a spray bottle can be helpful because it may help you apply the solution more evenly over your hair. If you use a spray bottle, make sure that it is new and clean, as any residue from other products may be harmful to your hair.
If you don’t need to use it all immediately, you can store the leftover hair solution in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
1-4. Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil.
For extra nutrients or to mask the vinegar smell, add a few drops (1 to 3) of your favorite essential oil to the apple cider vinegar and water solution. Lavender, rosemary, lemongrass, and tea tree are all essential oils commonly found in hair products, and contain nutrients that may help make your hair healthier. Lavender, tea tree, and rosemary are particularly popular for stimulating healthy hair growth, while lemongrass may help with itchy scalp caused by dandruff.
Be careful with hot oils, such as peppermint, though, as these may irritate your skin. If you want to add a hot oil like peppermint to your solution, stick to 1 to 2 drops until you know how the oil impacts your skin.
2. Applying the Solution to Your Hair
2-1. Shampoo and condition your hair as usual.
Using the shampoo and conditioner of your choice, wash your hair as you normally would. Rinse thoroughly with water before applying the apple cider vinegar solution.
Make sure that you have completely rinsed the shampoo and conditioner out of your hair. This will ensure that the apple cider vinegar does not have an adverse reaction to the chemicals in your shampoo or conditioner.
If you do not usually use conditioner, you can skip it – the apple cider vinegar solution will make your hair soft and smooth anyway!
2-2. Apply the apple cider vinegar solution to clean, wet hair.
Pour or spray the solution onto your hair, making sure that you use enough to cover your whole head. Massage the solution into your hair and scalp for a few seconds to help stimulate hair growth.
If your solution is in a cup instead of a spray bottle, lean your head back a bit when you pour in order to prevent the solution from going into your eyes.
If you have split ends, spend a little extra time rubbing the solution into the ends of your hair.
2-3. Let the solution rest on your hair for 2 to 10 minutes.
Leave the solution in your hair for 2 to 10 minutes, depending on how strong your solution is and how sensitive your skin is. If this is your first time applying apple cider vinegar to your hair, you might want to rinse after 2 minutes since you don’t know how the solution will affect your skin.
If your solution is strong (i.e. if you used a 1:1 ratio), do not leave the solution on for more than 10 minutes, as it can seriously irritate your skin. Even if you do not have sensitive skin, it is best to ere on the side of caution for your first time.
2-4. Rinse the solution out completely.
Wash the apple cider vinegar solution out of your hair with clean water. After the solution is rinsed out, you can dry your hair as usual. Avoid using any products until your hair is completely dry, then style as usual. Your hair will be shiny, healthy, and smooth to the touch.
2-5. Apply the apple cider vinegar solution to your hair 1 to 3 times per week.
For best results, use your apple cider vinegar solution on your hair 1 to 3 times per week to cleanse product build-up and ensure your hair stays healthy and strong. If your hair tends to be dry, try applying less often, about once per week, to avoid drying out your hair. If your hair is particularly oily, try applying the apple cider vinegar solution up to 3 times per week.
Even when diluted with water, apple cider vinegar is acidic and could irritate your skin. If you notice any signs of mild irritation, such as redness or itching, try diluting the solution with more water and/or using your apple cider vinegar solution less frequently. If the irritation is severe and you notice signs of a rash or feel any burning, discontinue use and consult your doctor if it does not get better.
Warnings
Avoid mixing apple cider vinegar directly with shampoo or conditioner. This may cause an adverse reaction that can be very harmful to your hair.

1,852 | How to Apply Aquapel | 1. Applying Aquapel to Your Windshield
1-1. Check the weather to make sure it’s above 40°F (4°C) and not raining.
Before you prepare your windshield, make sure it’s not raining or too cold because water and near-freezing temperatures can affect how Aquapel bonds to the glass. Your car can be in an open garage or outside—direct sunlight won’t affect how the chemical bonds to the glass.
If your car is parked under a tree, move it to an open-sky area to prevent debris falling onto the windshield.
1-2. Lift the windshield wipers away from the glass and wipe them clean.
Lifting the wipers will allow you to clean the entire windshield without missing the areas under the wipers. Grasp each wiper at the mid-way point and pull them at a diagonal angle away from the glass. Then wet a paper towel and wipe them clean so they can sweep off rain without leaving streaks across the windshield.
Make sure the wiper blades aren't worn or misshapen because that affects how efficiently they wipe raindrops away.
If your blades are worn out, buy replacements at any hardware or automotive parts store.
If you have a windshield wiper on the rear window, pull that one up as well. Note that if you’re applying it to the back window, you’ll need a second applicator because a single applicator only covers a little more than 1 windshield.
1-3. Clean the windshield with a professional glass cleaner.
It's important to clean the glass first so the Aquapel can bond with the glass (and not any residue or dirt sitting on top of the glass). Spray glass cleaner onto the windshield and use a paper towel or rag to wipe it clean.
Do this for all of the windows where you plan to apply Aquapel.
Inspect the windshield from several angles to make sure there are no streaks or dirty spots left.
1-4. Wear safety goggles or glasses to protect your eyes.
Aquapel can irritate your eyes, so put on a pair of safety goggles or glasses to prevent any accidents. If it does get in your eyes, flush them with water for 5 to 10 minutes.
If your eyes continue to show signs of irritation (redness, burning, pain), go to a doctor.
1-5. Touch the felt base of the applicator to the glass and squeeze the applicator’s wings.
Grip the applicator with your thumb, index, and middle finger, and hold it onto the glass. Squeeze the small wings on either side of the applicator (where your fingers are gripping it) until you hear a pop and see that it's releasing the Aquapel.
Make sure to hold the applicator level for even distribution.
1-6. Apply the Aquapel to 1 side of the windshield in a criss-cross pattern.
Use medium pressure to apply the product to half of the windshield, using long strokes from the top to the bottom. Then, apply it over the same area moving from side to side to make a criss-cross pattern.
Use the black outline of the windshield as a guide so you avoid getting the product on any painted areas of the car.
You only need to apply 1 layer, so work slowly and make sure you haven’t missed any strips of glass.
The Aquapel will start to bead as you apply it.
Avoid getting Aquapel on the wiper blades or molding.
1-7. Wipe away any excess Aquapel with a paper towel or clean rag.
Once you've applied Aquapel to one half of the windshield, wipe off as much of the residue as you can—do not let the product sit on the surface for longer than it takes you to apply it.
Fold or rotate the towel if you need to so you're using a dry side for each section of the windshield.
1-8. Repeat the criss-cross application and wiping process on the other side.
Start at the top of the windshield near the center and make long strokes up and down the window. Then reapply it from side to side. Once you’re done, use a clean rag or paper towel to wipe the product away.
It’s okay if you accidentally go over an area that you covered in your first application on the other side.
1-9. Reapply Aquapel on the area in front of the driver's seat and then wipe it clean.
To get the most visibility when you’re driving, reapply the product to the windshield in front of the driver's seat in a criss-cross pattern and then wipe it away just as you did in the beginning. There should be just enough left in the applicator to cover the area in the driver’s line of vision, but if not, open a new one.
Dispose of the applicator and paper towels in a trash can after you’re done. Do not try to wrap the applicator to save some for later use.
Aquapel will work for up to 6 months and won’t come off in the car wash.
1-10. Treat the back and side windows with 1 or 2 new applicators if desired.
Each Aquapel applicator has enough of the product to treat 1 average-sized windshield (like on a sedan). For a 2-door car with only 2 large windows on the sides (and 2 small triangle ones), you can use 1 applicator to treat those along with the small rear window. For a 4-door car, use 1 applicator on the 4 side windows and 1 applicator on the rear window.
For a large van or a sedan with a large sunroof, you’ll need a total of 3 to 4 applicators to treat all of the glass.
2. Using Aquapel on Glass Surfaces
2-1. Protect your shower doors from watermarks and soap scum.
First, clean your shower doors with a glass cleaner until any existing watermarks are gone. Hold the applicator at the top of the glass and make streaks going up and down the door. Then start at the top of the door and sweep it on from side to side. Work in criss-cross patterned blocks until you've covered the entire surface and then use a paper towel to wipe off the product as soon as you finish applying it.
Stop ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) away from the sides of the door so you don't get any product on the molding.
One applicator should be enough for a single shower door. If you have 2 or 3 large glass walls around your shower, you may need 2 or 3 applicators.
Reapply the product every 6 months.
2-2. Use it on house windows to prevent rain streaks.
Clean the outside of your home windows with glass cleaner and a rag. Then apply a layer of the product on 1 or 2 small windows at a time in a criss-cross fashion. As soon as you’ve covered 1 or 2 small windows, wipe it away with a clean cloth and move on to the next set of windows.
Note that 1 Aquapel applicator holds enough product to cover a windshield, so you may need to stock up if your house has a lot of small windows or floor-to-ceiling windows.
If your windows have painted panes, leave ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) of room around the edges when you’re applying it.
2-3. Apply it to glass tables to protect from spills and watermarks.
Clean the table with glass cleaner and then apply Aquapel in even, parallel strokes before going over it again to form a criss-cross pattern. Once you’ve covered the whole table in a criss-cross pattern, wipe the table clean with a rag or paper towel. Don’t let the product sit on the table for any amount of time—wipe it down as soon as you finish applying it.
Any spilled liquids will bead on top of the surface so you can easily wipe the mess away.
If your glass table has water rings, rub out the marks with saltwater and a rag or white vinegar and lemon juice before applying Aquapel.
Tips
Using a microfiber cloth will give you a streak-free clean when you’re prepping the windshield.
Warnings
Store Aquapel in a cool, dry place away from heat, flames, and direct sunlight.[16]

1,853 | How to Apply BB Cream | 1. Choosing the Right BB Cream
1-1. Find out what the BB Cream offers.
While every BB Cream has a variety of properties and offers a variety of effects, each one can vary. Make sure you know exactly what a BB Cream claims to offer before purchasing it.
Possible properties include:
Moisturizing
Skin whitening
Blocking UV rays
Priming the skin
Tinting the skin
Refracting light to make skin look more radiant
Providing anti-aging components
Enriching the skin with vitamins
You should also research the manufacturer of the BB Cream. Only purchase a cream from a reputable company.
1-2. Read reviews of the BB Cream.
No matter how reputable the cosmetic company is or what the BB Cream claims to offer, each type will work differently for different people. Reading reviews will help you understand if the product is both high-quality and right for you.
Pay close attention to reviews that mention skin tone, skin type, and skin condition so that you can gauge how applicable the experience is to your set of circumstances.
1-3. Choose the best BB Cream for your skin type.
Different skin types have different needs as far as cosmetics go. For the most effective experience, choose a product that is geared toward oily skin, normal skin, or dry skin, depending on which skin type applies to you.
If you have oily skin, consider a BB Cream with a matte finish. Gravitate toward those containing natural plant extracts, as well. This skin type tends to be sensitive, and a BB Cream with natural extracts is less likely to cause a reaction.
If you have normal skin, consider a moisturizing BB Cream that can make your skin appear smoother. You could also look for one with a skin whitener in it if you need help balancing your skin tone.
If you have dry skin, look for a BB Cream with a watery consistency instead of a thick cream, since thick creams can cause excess dryness. You should also look for moisturizing formulas.
1-4. Choose the tone that matches your skin tone best.
BB Creams tend not to have a wide variety of shades, but most will have some range of shades. The tone that comes closest to your natural skin tone will likely suit you best.
When comparing tones, compare the tone of the BB Cream to the skin of your face and neck. Do not compare it to your hands, since the skin on your hands can be a slightly different shade than the skin on your face.
1-5. Get a sample, when possible.
Get a sample and wear it around during the day. Check the way it looks in both natural and artificial light.
Lighting can make a big difference in the way a cream looks. The lighting in a cosmetics store may not give you an accurate idea of how the cream looks on your skin once you walk outside. As a result, it is better to wear the cream in a variety of settings for a few hours before making a purchase.
2. Applying BB Cream with Your Fingers
2-1. Know when and why to use your fingers.
Most people prefer to use their fingers to apply BB Cream since it tends to be the easiest method.
Balmy BB Creams should be applied with the hands since the heat of your skin melts it, making it easier to apply.
Applying BB Cream with your fingers will produce a less smooth result than applying it with a sponge or brush, though.
2-2. Get a small amount on the back of your hand.
Squeeze a puddle of BB Cream roughly 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, or the size of a dime, onto the back of your hand.
Strictly speaking, this is not essential. It will make it easier to dab the cream on in equal portions, however.
2-3. Apply five dots to the forehead, nose, two cheeks, and chin.
Dip the tip of your middle finger into the puddle of BB Cream on the back of your hand. Dab the cream on your fingertip onto your face. Only apply it in dots: one in the middle of the forehead, one on the tip of the nose, one on your left cheek, one on your right cheek, and one on your chin.
The dots of BB Cream should be about equal in amount.
Do not apply the cream in streaks or in large splotches. You should use the cream sparsely, apply a thin layer to avoid making your skin look too heavy or weighted down.
2-4. Pat the cream into your skin.
Use your index and middle fingers to gently pat the cream in. Rub the BB Cream into your skin using a circular motion, but instead of keeping your fingers in contact with your skin for the entire motion, tap your fingers up and down as you rub.
This gentle, light pressure spreads the cream evenly without irritating your skin.
Start with the forehead and work your way down toward each cheek from the middle. Move onto your nose and chin after that, then finish off with your cheeks.
2-5. Alternatively, gently blend it outward.
If you are not fond of the patting technique, you can apply gently pressure with your index and middle fingertips. Blend each dab of cream using outward strokes.
As before, start with the forehead before working your way to the nose and chin. Finish with the cheeks.
2-6. Gently pat the cream around your eyes.
Use even gentler pressure when you reach the eye area, regardless of whether your are patting or blending the cream on in strokes.
By using a gentle patting pressure near your eyes, you prevent the fine lines that may show up when the dragging, stroke motion strains the skin around your eye, which is especially sensitive.
2-7. Dab extra on to cover imperfections.
Wait a few minutes for the BB Cream to dry. After it dries, if there are any particular areas in need of extra coverage, you can dab another thin layer of BB Cream over them.
Note that you may never achieve a purely flawless look with BB Cream, since it tends to even out the skin tone more than it covers imperfections.
3. Using a Sponge to Apply BB Cream
3-1. Know when and why to use a sponge.
Sponge application is most suitable for people with oily skin.
When you have oily skin, applying BB Cream with your fingers can add further oil to the skin on your face.
A brush is less forceful, so when you have oily skin, you may have difficulty spreading the BB Cream evenly when you use a brush.
3-2. Apply a facial mist to the sponge.
Lightly spritz the makeup sponge with a moisturizing facial mist before using it to apply your BB Cream.
Using a sponge can throw the moisture levels of your skin off, so using a moisturizing facial mist can help prevent this.
Spraying the sponge with a mist beforehand will also allow you to spread the cream more smoothly while keeping as much of the cream on your face as possible instead of losing it all in your sponge.
3-3. Get a small amount on the back of your hand.
Squeeze a puddle of BB Cream roughly 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, or the size of a dime, onto the back of your hand.
Strictly speaking, this is not essential. It will make it easier to dab the cream on in equal portions, however.
3-4. Apply five dots to the forehead, nose, two cheeks, and chin.
Dip the tip of your middle finger into the puddle of BB Cream on the back of your hand. Dab the cream on your fingertip onto your face. Only apply it in dots: one in the middle of the forehead, one on the tip of the nose, one on your left cheek, one on your right cheek, and one on your chin.
Even though you will be blending the BB Cream in using a makeup sponge, you should still dab the initial amount onto your skin using your fingers in order to control the amount better.
The dots of BB Cream should be about equal in amount.
Do not apply the cream in streaks or in large splotches. You should use the cream sparsely, apply a thin layer to avoid making your skin look too heavy or weighted down.
3-5. Smooth the BB Cream into your skin using the sponge.
Rub the BB Cream into your skin using firm, even, outward strokes.
Apply enough pressure to make your skin “jiggle” or move slightly from the vibration.
Start from the forehead and work your way out toward the sides of your forehead from the center. Focus on your nose and chin next. Finish by firmly rubbing the BB Cream on your cheeks into your skin using outward strokes.
3-6. Lessen the pressure around your eye area.
The area around your eye is more sensitive, so hard pressure can cause damage to the skin. Blend the BB Cream on in this area using a patting motion.
You can either use your fingers or the sponge for this part. If you feel like you have less control over spread and pressure with the sponge, switch to your fingers.
By using a gentle patting pressure near your eyes, you prevent the fine lines that may show up when the dragging, stroke motion strains the skin around your eye, which is especially sensitive.
4. Brushing on BB Cream
4-1. Know when and why to use a makeup brush.
This method is best if you have dry skin and works especially well with liquid BB creams.
Note that it is not generally recommended for thick, balmy creams.
If you have dry skin, using your fingers to apply the product can irritate your already irritated skin, causing it to become drier.
Additionally, using a sponge can be too forceful and may rob your skin of what little moisture it has.
4-2. Get a small amount onto the palm of one hand.
Squeeze a puddle of BB Cream roughly 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, or the size of a dime, into the palm of your hand.
Strictly speaking, this is not essential. It will make it easier to dab the cream on in equal portions, however.
Use the palm of your hand with this method rather than the back of your hand. The palm of your hand has more heat, so it can warm up and liquify the BB Cream more effectively than the back of your hand. As such, it makes the cream easier to spread, especially if the cream is somewhat balmy in consistency.
4-3. Apply five dots to the forehead, nose, two cheeks, and chin.
Dip the tip of your middle finger into the puddle of BB Cream in the palm of your hand. Dab the cream on your fingertip onto your face. Only apply it in dots: one in the middle of the forehead, one on the tip of the nose, one on your left cheek, one on your right cheek, and one on your chin.
Even though you will be blending the BB Cream in using a makeup brush, you should still dab the initial amount onto your skin using your fingers in order to control the amount better.
The dots of BB Cream should be about equal in amount.
Do not apply the cream in streaks or in large splotches. You should use the cream sparsely, apply a thin layer to avoid making your skin look too heavy or weighted down.
4-4. Smooth the BB Cream into your skin using the brush.
Use even, firm, outward brush strokes to spread the cream over your face and into your skin.
A brushstroke will naturally be a little softer and a little gentler than a stroke with your fingers or a sponge. As such, you should not be afraid to use a little pressure.
Work from your forehead out. Start at the center of your forehead and brush the cream out toward the top and side. Brush the cream on your nose up and down and the cream on your chin side to side. Blend the cream on your cheeks in all directions until it meets with the ending point of each previous area.
4-5. Work the cream around your eyes.
The area around your eye is more sensitive, so hard pressure can cause damage to the skin. Blend the BB Cream on in this area using a patting motion.
You can either use your fingers or the brush for this part. In general, it is harder to apply hard pressure with a brush, making it ideal for the eye area.
By using a gentle patting pressure near your eyes, you prevent the fine lines that may show up when the dragging, stroke motion strains the skin around your eye, which is especially sensitive.
Tips
If you plan to use the BB Cream as a base and want to use foundation over it, only apply a light amount of foundation. Otherwise, you may end up with a thick mask and too much coverage.[4]

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Choosing the Right BB Cream\\n1-1. Find out what the BB Cream offers.\\nWhile every BB Cream has a variety of properties and offers a variety of effects, each one can vary. Make sure you know exactly what a BB Cream claims to offer before purchasing it.\\nPossible properties include:\\nMoisturizing\\nSkin whitening\\nBlocking UV rays\\nPriming the skin\\nTinting the skin\\nRefracting light to make skin look more radiant\\nProviding anti-aging components\\nEnriching the skin with vitamins\\n\\nYou should also research the manufacturer of the BB Cream. Only purchase a cream from a reputable company.\\n1-2. Read reviews of the BB Cream.\\nNo matter how reputable the cosmetic company is or what the BB Cream claims to offer, each type will work differently for different people. Reading reviews will help you understand if the product is both high-quality and right for you.\\nPay close attention to reviews that mention skin tone, skin type, and skin condition so that you can gauge how applicable the experience is to your set of circumstances.\\n1-3. Choose the best BB Cream for your skin type.\\nDifferent skin types have different needs as far as cosmetics go. For the most effective experience, choose a product that is geared toward oily skin, normal skin, or dry skin, depending on which skin type applies to you.\\nIf you have oily skin, consider a BB Cream with a matte finish. Gravitate toward those containing natural plant extracts, as well. This skin type tends to be sensitive, and a BB Cream with natural extracts is less likely to cause a reaction.\\nIf you have normal skin, consider a moisturizing BB Cream that can make your skin appear smoother. You could also look for one with a skin whitener in it if you need help balancing your skin tone.\\nIf you have dry skin, look for a BB Cream with a watery consistency instead of a thick cream, since thick creams can cause excess dryness. You should also look for moisturizing formulas.\\n1-4. Choose the tone that matches your skin tone best.\\nBB Creams tend not to have a wide variety of shades, but most will have some range of shades. The tone that comes closest to your natural skin tone will likely suit you best.\\nWhen comparing tones, compare the tone of the BB Cream to the skin of your face and neck. Do not compare it to your hands, since the skin on your hands can be a slightly different shade than the skin on your face.\\n1-5. Get a sample, when possible.\\nGet a sample and wear it around during the day. Check the way it looks in both natural and artificial light.\\nLighting can make a big difference in the way a cream looks. The lighting in a cosmetics store may not give you an accurate idea of how the cream looks on your skin once you walk outside. As a result, it is better to wear the cream in a variety of settings for a few hours before making a purchase.\\n2. Applying BB Cream with Your Fingers\\n2-1. Know when and why to use your fingers.\\nMost people prefer to use their fingers to apply BB Cream since it tends to be the easiest method.\\nBalmy BB Creams should be applied with the hands since the heat of your skin melts it, making it easier to apply.\\nApplying BB Cream with your fingers will produce a less smooth result than applying it with a sponge or brush, though.\\n2-2. Get a small amount on the back of your hand.\\nSqueeze a puddle of BB Cream roughly 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, or the size of a dime, onto the back of your hand.\\nStrictly speaking, this is not essential.

You should use the cream sparsely, apply a thin layer to avoid making your skin look too heavy or weighted down.\\n2-4. Pat the cream into your skin.\\nUse your index and middle fingers to gently pat the cream in. Rub the BB Cream into your skin using a circular motion, but instead of keeping your fingers in contact with your skin for the entire motion, tap your fingers up and down as you rub.\\nThis gentle, light pressure spreads the cream evenly without irritating your skin.\\nStart with the forehead and work your way down toward each cheek from the middle. Move onto your nose and chin after that, then finish off with your cheeks.\\n2-5. Alternatively, gently blend it outward.\\nIf you are not fond of the patting technique, you can apply gently pressure with your index and middle fingertips. Blend each dab of cream using outward strokes.\\nAs before, start with the forehead before working your way to the nose and chin. Finish with the cheeks.\\n2-6. Gently pat the cream around your eyes.\\nUse even gentler pressure when you reach the eye area, regardless of whether your are patting or blending the cream on in strokes.\\nBy using a gentle patting pressure near your eyes, you prevent the fine lines that may show up when the dragging, stroke motion strains the skin around your eye, which is especially sensitive.\\n2-7. Dab extra on to cover imperfections.\\nWait a few minutes for the BB Cream to dry. After it dries, if there are any particular areas in need of extra coverage, you can dab another thin layer of BB Cream over them.\\nNote that you may never achieve a purely flawless look with BB Cream, since it tends to even out the skin tone more than it covers imperfections.\\n3. Using a Sponge to Apply BB Cream\\n3-1. Know when and why to use a sponge.\\nSponge application is most suitable for people with oily skin.\\nWhen you have oily skin, applying BB Cream with your fingers can add further oil to the skin on your face.\\nA brush is less forceful, so when you have oily skin, you may have difficulty spreading the BB Cream evenly when you use a brush.\\n3-2. Apply a facial mist to the sponge.\\nLightly spritz the makeup sponge with a moisturizing facial mist before using it to apply your BB Cream.\\nUsing a sponge can throw the moisture levels of your skin off, so using a moisturizing facial mist can help prevent this.\\nSpraying the sponge with a mist beforehand will also allow you to spread the cream more smoothly while keeping as much of the cream on your face as possible instead of losing it all in your sponge.\\n3-3. Get a small amount on the back of your hand.\\nSqueeze a puddle of BB Cream roughly 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, or the size of a dime, onto the back of your hand.\\nStrictly speaking, this is not essential.

You should use the cream sparsely, apply a thin layer to avoid making your skin look too heavy or weighted down.\\n3-5. Smooth the BB Cream into your skin using the sponge.\\nRub the BB Cream into your skin using firm, even, outward strokes.\\nApply enough pressure to make your skin “jiggle” or move slightly from the vibration.\\nStart from the forehead and work your way out toward the sides of your forehead from the center. Focus on your nose and chin next. Finish by firmly rubbing the BB Cream on your cheeks into your skin using outward strokes.\\n3-6.

1,854 | How to Apply Bactroban | 1. Using Topical Bactroban
1-1. Wash your hands.
Before (and after) applying Bactroban to your skin, wash your hands with warm water and soap. Make sure your hands are completely dry before applying Bactroban to your skin. Work the soap into a lather and thoroughly spread it across your hands (palms and back) and fingers.
You may use any kind of soap you want, but those of the antibacterial variety are recommended.
Washing your hands before applying Bactroban serves to wash away dirt and bacteria before touching your infected area; washing after application serves to get the ointment off your hands so you don't get any in your mouth or eyes.
1-2. Clean the infected skin.
Do this using warm water and soap, in much the same way you did for your hands. Dry the area thoroughly using a clean cloth or towel before applying Bactroban. If your infection is located in a hard-to-reach area, it may be easiest to complete this step while showering.
Use a scent-free soap to wash your infected skin. Soaps with perfumes and artificial dyes can irritate your skin and may be painful if your skin infection is severe.
1-3. Spread Bactroban ointment onto your skin.
This should be done by first squeezing a small amount out of the tube and onto your fingers or palm, then spreading it evenly across your infected skin. Typically, only a small amount of ointment is required; follow the instructions provided by your doctor or on the label.
If you have impetigo, then you will need to apply Bactroban ointment twice a day for five days. You may cover it with gauze and reassess if there has not been any improvement in three to five days.
If you have a bacterial skin infection, then make sure that you limit the area where you apply Bactroban. The area where you apply the Bactroban should be no bigger than the size of your palm (100cm2).
Bactroban ointment won't be completely absorbed by your skin when you first apply it; you should be able to see a thin layer of the cream on your skin.
You can cover the infected area with a bandage after applying Bactroban if you wish as long as it is a relatively breathable material (such as gauze).
1-4. Follow your prescription to completion.
It is very important that you use the Bactroban ointment for the full period ordered by your doctor (typically around 10 days), or as advised by the package insert. If you stop using the ointment early because your infection appears to be gone, you might end up with a stronger infection that could even be resistant to antibiotics.
Apply the ointment three times a day for 10 days for a bacterial skin infection. Consult your primary care provider if you see no improvement in three to five days
This is a good reason not to use Bactroban without a doctor's prescription, even if you are in a country where you can get it over the counter.
If you accidentally miss a dose of Bactroban, apply it as soon as you remember to do so unless it is already time for your next dose; in such a case, skip the missed dose. You should not use a double dose without your physician's approval.
2. Using Bactroban Nasal
2-1. Follow your doctor's instructions.
Before using Bactroban nasal, make sure that you fully understand your doctor's instructions and follow them carefully. Read the label carefully, and call your doctor if you have any questions about using the medication, such as how long or how often to apply it.
2-2. Wash your hands before and after using Bactroban nasal.
It is important to make sure that your hands are clean before you begin your Bactroban Nasal application and after you apply the medicine. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water, and dry them completely before and after using Bactroban.
2-3. Dispense half of the single-use tube in each nostril.
To begin, insert the application tube into your nostril. Then, push half of the ointment into this nostril. Then, insert the tube into the other nostril and apply the other half of the medication.
2-4. Press on your nostrils to disperse the medicine.
After you have applied all of the ointment between your two nostrils, begin pressing on the sides of your nostrils in an alternating fashion. Go back and forth between pressing gently on your right and left nostrils for about one minute.
2-5. Discard the tube.
After you have finished, dispose of the application tube. Do not reuse the tube. These tubes are meant for a single application of Bactroban and are not meant to be reused.
3. Following Up on Your Care
3-1. Assess your condition after three to five days.
Look for physical signs of improvement in your skin condition. If you see no change in your infection or it appears to be worsening, get in touch with your doctor right away. This could be a sign that you have an infection that is resistant to Mupirocin, in which case Bactroban will not help you.
Your infection probably won't be completely cleared up within three to five days of beginning Bactroban use, but there should be some visible improvement by then.
Continue to use Bactroban until you can see your doctor unless it is making your infection worse.
3-2. Watch out for side effects.
The following are potential side effects of Bactroban use and should be monitored carefully: skin dryness, irritation, itching, burning, redness, and blistering. If you experience any of these while using Bactroban, stop using the ointment and visit your doctor so he or she can evaluate your reaction to the medication.
It is possible that you could be allergic to some of the ingredients of Bactroban, in which case you should not use it. It is best to have your doctor make this determination.
Additional side-effects are possible in young children, pregnant women, and the elderly. Ask a doctor about potential issues associated with these special cases.
Serious side-effects that warrant immediate emergency medical attention include difficulty breathing, hives, wheezing, a severe rash, and itching or swelling of the mouth or throat.
3-3. Avoid combining Bactroban with other creams.
Although Bactroban (Mupirocin) are not known to react poorly to other medicines or ointments, it is recommended that you do not use any other cream, lotion, or ointment on the same area to which you are applying Bactroban, as this could dilute Bactroban's effectiveness.
If you must use Bactroban and another topical cream on the same area, try to apply them at least 30 minutes apart from one another.
Using a lotion or cream on your skin could cause irritation, especially if it contains perfumes; this could make it difficult to tell whether Bactroban is helping your skin infection.
3-4. Reassess your condition.
Once your prescribed period of Bactroban use has ended, keep an eye on your skin infection and make sure there are no signs of a lingering (or recurring) issue. If your infection does not appear to be fully eradicated (and you have completed your original Bactroban regimen), talk to your doctor.
Do not resume using Bactroban without first clearing it with your doctor, as this could make your infection worse in certain situations (such as promoting antibiotic resistance).
Wait a couple of days after finishing your prescribed run of Bactroban use before deciding that your infection hasn't cleared up.
Tips
Store your Bactroban at 68 to 77 °F (20 to 25 °C) (and preferably not in a bathroom). Do not store Bactroban in the refrigerator.[15]

1,855 | How to Apply Base Makeup | 1. Applying the Base Makeup
1-1. Use concealer.
You will wreck your look if you’ve got dark circles under your eyes or have blemishes throughout your face. Don’t feel badly about such circles or blemishes, though. You can cover them up with concealer. Apply the concealer in an upside-down pyramid shape.
You generally want concealer that matches your skin. Make sure also that your concealer matches your foundation tone. If you have dark circles, however, use a concealer with orange tones under your eye to neutralize the color.
Do not use a concealer lighter than your skin tone. Instead, match the concealer to the lightest part of your face. This will look natural and brighten your complexion.
Use your ring finger when you apply the concealer across your skin (or a makeup brush). The ring finger is good to use for applying makeup because it will provide a softer touch to the skin. Using your finger will help melt and blend the concealer for a flawless look.
1-2. Apply foundation.
Foundation will complete the base. You should either apply tinted moisturizer or a liquid foundation. This is a different product than the primer.
Use a foundation brush to apply the foundation, rather than a sponge. The brush will smooth out the application of the foundation and make it look more evenly applied on your face.
It’s critically important that you find the right color foundation. You should try to match the color along your jawline. Don’t use too much foundation. You want it to even out your skin tone, not appear like a mask.
Choose foundation from the yellow family if you are concerned about dark circles under your eyes. Matching the foundation color to your chest is a good way to find the right color for your face.
1-3. Try a foundation stick.
Don’t want to put foundation all over your face because you prefer a more natural look? You could try using a foundation stick.
This is also a less time-consuming way to apply base makeup. Use the stick as if it’s a giant marker. Draw thick lines down your cheekbones, on the sides of your nose, and above your eyebrows, and then blend it in.
If you want to look bronzed, you could use a stick that’s a little darker, and put it in the same places over the lighter foundation. Blend both together.
1-4. Apply powder or compact foundation.
You can also use powder or compact foundation that is not in liquid form.
To apply this type of foundation, you will want to use a small makeup brush. Sometimes these brushes come with the makeup, and sometimes you have to apply them separately.
Hold the brush horizontally. Brush it across the powder with short strokes. Press the brush to your face in slightly rolling motions. Then, dust the powder over your face.
2. Completing the Base Makeup
2-1. Finish the look with powder.
Powder is an important step when completing base makeup because it will set the foundation and finish off the look.
Set the foundation with loose powder. Buy a large powder brush to apply it. Foundation will last longer if you use powder on top of it. Use translucent powder. It will control shine and provide a matte finish to your face. It's not designed to add color, but rather to set your makeup.
Make sure you dust areas of your face that get very oily. Do this first, especially in the T-zone. Then, dust the powder throughout the rest of your face.
2-2. Apply bronzer or blush.
Now that you’ve got the base makeup down, you should apply blush or bronzer in order to highlight your cheekbones.
Put bronzer on your face, your neck, and your chest. This will even out the tone of your skin. Make sure to use a brush, and make sure the bronzer is blended.
Smile before applying blusher. Then start by applying the blush on the apple of your cheek. Blend it back towards the top of your ear, and then brush it down toward your jawline. Blend it in so it doesn’t look too stark.
2-3. Try contouring.
Contouring is a makeup trick used by many movie stars in order to alter the shape of their faces. The first step to contouring is to create a sound base using the steps above.
Then, suck your cheeks in, and sweep bronzing powder on the hollows of your cheekbones. Now, take cream highlighter. Apply it above the bronzer.
Make sure that you blend the cream in. Use stick foundations. With a darker one, trace your temples and carry it up to your hairline. To make your cheekbones stand out, place the pigment right above the cheekbones. For the nose, you can apply the stick on either side, either narrower at the top or carry it to the brow.
Take a sponge and blend the contouring makeup into your base makeup. Now take the lighter stick, and apply it underneath your eyes. You could put some in the center of your forehead, on your chin, and on the bridge of your nose too. Dust the face with lose powder.
3. Starting to Apply the Base Makeup
3-1. Clean your face and hands.
This is really important. Before you apply base makeup, you will want to start with a fresh palette.
Don’t forget to clean your hands, though, in addition to your face. Use a cleanser so you aren’t treating your face to harsh chemicals or soaps. Makeup remover or wipes can do a great job.
After you clean your face and hands, apply moisturizer to your face, and make sure that it contains SPF! Wearing daily SPF is the best way to make sure your skin is protected and looks good.
3-2. Exfoliate your face to prep it.
By exfoliating your face, you remove dry skin from it. This evens out your skin tone, and it makes your skin look healthier and glowing.
After you've cleaned your face with your regular cleanser, you are ready to exfoliate it. You should do this process about twice a week.
Mix three tablespoons of white sugar with a tablespoon of water for a homemade technique (you can also buy exfoliating scrubs at the store). Put some of the paste on a washcloth, and gently rub it all over your face in small circular motions. Then, rinse it off.
3-3. Apply a primer to your face.
Primer is a really good way to prep your skin and to make it look smoother and more flawless. You can get it at many department store makeup counters.
Think of primer as a much lighter foundation. You shouldn’t be able to tell it’s there. It provides the foundation for the rest of your makeup, and will make it last longer and be less likely to smudge.
Make sure that you apply it evenly throughout your face, including underneath your eyes. Don’t choose primer that’s dramatically darker than your skin. You can buy primer for different skin types, including oily, dry and combination skin.
When choosing the color of your primer, understand that different colors correct different issues. Yellow and green-based primers are designed to stop redness. Pink-based primers add life to dull skin. Peach and salmon primers are good if you have darker patches or circles under your eyes.
Tips
Hydrate your skin by drinking a lot of water.
Test your foundation color on your jawline.

1,856 | How to Apply Basic Makeup | 1. Applying Foundation and Powder
1-1. Start with a clean face.
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat it dry. You can also use a cleanser with exfoliating micro-beads or buff your skin with an exfoliating face pad.
Try wiping your face with a cotton ball soaked in toner. This will help tighten your pores.
Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
If you use a cleanser with an exfoliator, you should rinse your face before patting it dry with a towel.
1-2. Apply some moisturizer.
Chose a moisturizer that is appropriate for your skin type and apply it to your face. Gently dot it along your nose, cheekbones, and forehead, and blend it in using circular motions.
If you dislike wearing too much on your face, you can purchase a tinted moisturizer that matches your skin tone. This way, you won't have to apply primer or foundation.
To determine which moisturizer is right for a certain skin tone, check the labels for products specific to your issue (oily skin, dry skin, sensitive skin, etc.).
1-3. Consider applying some primer.
While applying face primer is not necessary, it can help you achieve that smooth, air-brushed finish by filling in any gaping pores. Most primers also act as a binding solution to help makeup stay on your skin longer. You can use a basic face primer, or you can use one with special qualities, such as a matte finish or a redness reducer. You can purchase them in a beauty shop or boutique.
1-4. Consider applying some concealer.
Concealer is great for hiding discolorations, blemishes, and those dreaded under-eye circles. Choose a concealer that is the same color as your foundation, but one or two shades lighter. Gently apply the concealer over the blemish, discoloration, or under-eye circle using a tapping motion. You can use your finger, a makeup sponge, or even a small brush. There are different types of concealer, the under-eye area needs a thinner formula than what you would cover blemishes in other areas with, or it will crack. Be sure to blend the edges of the concealer into your skin. To make sure concealer doesn't crack or wrinkle, quickly pat some powder over the concealer, powders that are translucent or your skin tone blend best. You can also use a color-correcting concealer to cover up some problem areas. Here are some tips:
If you have red areas or pimples, use green concealer. The green will conceal out the redness.
If you have dark circles under your eyes, use orange or yellow-tinted concealer.
If you have a yellowish skin tone, use some lilac-tinted concealer. The lilac pigment will help cancel out the yellow.
1-5. Choose a foundation color that matches your skin tone.
You can do this by placing a small amount along your jaw. Some companies sell foundations for cool, neutral, and warm undertones. If you are purchasing a foundation from such a company, make sure that you purchase the right skin tone and undertone. Getting foundation in the wrong skin tone and undertone can make your face look orangey, yellowish, or ashy. Yikes! Here are some quick tips for determining your skin undertone:
If your veins look purple or blue, you have a cool undertone. If your veins look green, you have a warm undertone. If you cannot tell, you most likely have a neutral undertone.
If you look best in cool colors, such as bright greens, blues, and purples, you have a cool undertone. If you look best in warmer colors, such as reds, oranges, yellows, and olive-greens, then you have a warm undertone. If you look good in all colors, then you have a neutral undertone.
If you look best in silver jewelry, you have a cool undertone. If you look best in gold jewelry, you have a warm undertone. If you look good in both gold and silver, then you have a neutral undertone.
1-6. Decide how much coverage you want.
When selecting your foundation, it is also important to decide how much coverage you want. There are different types of foundations available, and each will give you different results. Here are some tips:
Cream foundation is thick, but it will give you the most coverage. You may not even need concealer for this foundation. It can feel heavy on your face, however. This type of foundation is suitable for normal and dry skin types.
Liquid foundation can give you a sheer coverage to a medium coverage. It will look more natural the sheerer it is, and will help even out your skin tone. Some blemishes may still show through, however, and you may need to use concealer. This type of foundation is suitable for dry and combination skin types.
Powder foundation will give you the lightest coverage, and will look the most natural. It is the best for evening out your skin tone and giving you the no-makeup look. This type of foundation is suitable for oily skin types.
1-7. Apply your foundation.
There are many different ways you can apply your foundation. Coverage also depends on what you use to put the foundation on your skin. Generally beauty blenders give the most coverage, then foundation brushes, and then fingers or sponges. You can use your fingers, a makeup sponge, or even a foundation brush, depending on the type of foundation you have. Start applying your foundation to your nose, and work your way outward along your chin, cheeks, and nose bridge. Blend the foundation outward, and be sure to get your jaw line, sides of face, forehead, and neck.
If you are using powder foundation, you can apply the makeup using a makeup sponge or a powder brush.
If you are using liquid foundation, you can use a makeup sponge, a makeup brush, or your fingers. If you choose to use a makeup sponge, consider dampening it in water first. This will prevent the sponge from soaking up too much foundation, and thus wasting it.
If you are using cream foundation, you can use a makeup sponge, a makeup brush, or your fingers.
1-8. Dust lightly with powder.
Choose a powder that matches your skin tone and swirl your powder brush in it. Lightly tap or blow the excess powder off, then brush it onto your face. Focus on the nose, forehead, and cheekbones. The powder will help set the foundation and reduce shine. It will also further smooth your face in preparation for other powder makeup, such as blush and eye shadow. Be sure to dust any excess powder off your face.
2. Applying Makeup to Your Eyes
2-1. Choose your eye shadow colors.
You will need three different shades: a medium shade for the lid, a dark shade for the crease, and a light shade for the base and highlight. Try to choose colors from the same color family, such as all blues or all browns. Also, keep in mind that different colors may enhance different eye colors. Here are some suggestions:
For the best blending, eye shadow should have four different shades: The lightest (a shade close to white) on the inner corner and just under your browbone, the second lightest over the lid, next darkest on the crease, and darkest on the outer corner blended in.
If you have blue eyes, you can wear similar shades, such as dark blue, grey, and silver. You can also wear contrasting shades, such as bronze, brown, copper, and taupe.
If you have brown eyes... you can wear similar shades, such as bronze, brown, and taupe. You can also wear contrasting shades, such as blue, green, grey, and purple.
If you have green eyes, you can wear similar shades, such as green, and forest green. You can also wear contrasting shades, such as gold, pink, taupe, and purple.
If you have grey eyes you can wear similar shades, such as blue, charcoal, and silver. You can also wear contrasting shades, such as brown, gold, green, and purple.
If you have hazel eyes, you can use greens and golds to bring out the greens and golds in your own eyes. You can also use contrasting colors, such as plum, reddish-brown, and wine.
2-2. To make your eye makeup brighter and longer-lasting, apply an eyeshadow primer before any shadow.
Or simply use a dot of liquid concealer in place of primer.
2-3. Apply the base and highlight.
Choose your lightest shade. Swirl your brush in the eye shadow and sweep it over your entire eyelid, from the lash line all the way up to the eyebrow. Gently blend the shadow towards the corner or you eye and away from your eye. You can leave your eye shadow like this, or add extra definition by adding some shadow and lid color.
Consider brushing some loose powder under your eye, just beneath the eyelashes. This will catch any loose specks of eye shadow. When you are done applying your eye shadow, you can brush this powder off using a clean brush.
Some people do not like having the same highlight color as their base. If this applies to you, you can use an eye shadow primer to stop your eye shadow from creasing. Be sure to apply your highlight in your inner corners to open up your eyes and to your brow bone to give your eyes definition.
2-4. Apply the lid color.
Swish you brush across the medium shade and sweep it along the entire eyelid, going from right next to inner corner of your eye to the outer corner.
2-5. Apply the crease color.
Take a smaller brush and sweep it across the darkest shade. Run it along the crease of your eye, going in an arch starting from the outer corner and following the shape of your natural eye socket, or where your eyelids fold in when you open your eyes.
2-6. Blend your eye shadow.
Using a small, fluffy brush, go over the eyelid, where the lid meets the crease. Next, go over the brow, where the crease meets the brow. When you blend, run your brush from the inner corner of your eye to the outer and back to the inner in a rainbow motion.
If you brushed loose powder beneath your eye, you can dust it off after you have finished blending everything.
2-7. Apply the eyeliner.
Place the tip of your eyeliner as close as possible to the lash line on your upper lid. Slowly draw a smooth line, going from the middle of your eyelid to the outer corner. Then, going from the middle to the inner corner. You can extend the eyeliner a little bit beyond the outer corner, creating a wing tip. Whether you use eyeliner pencil or liquid eyeliner depends entirely on what is easiest for you to work with. Here are some more tips on applying eye liner:
For a natural, daytime look, use brown or black-brown liner. For a more defined or evening look, use black eyeliner.
It helps if you hold a pocket mirror in your other hand, and look down at the mirror while applying the eyeliner.
You can also close your eye partway, and gently pull on the outer corner of your eye, stretching the lid. Draw your eyeliner in a neat line.
You can use eyeliner or eye shadow on your bottom lid. Eyeliner will give you a more defined look, while a thin line of charcoal or dark brown eye shadow will give you a softer look.
2-8. Apply the mascara.
Start applying your mascara from the middle of your eye. Dip the brush into the container and pull it out, dragging it along the rim of the container to remove any excess mascara. Bring the brush as close as possible to your lash line and gently pull it up, wiggling it from side to side slightly; lower your eyelids at the same time as you are pulling the brush up. Repeat the process for the outer and inner corners of your eye.
You can apply some mascara to your bottom lashes. Simply bring the brush as close as possible to the lower lash line, and brush downward.
2-9. Consider shading in your eyebrows.
Unless you have very thick eyebrows, you might want to fill them in. You can use eyebrow pencil or eye shadow. Follow the natural curve of you eyebrow, making the color softer and lighter the closer it gets to your nose. In general, you want to use a color that is two to three shades lighter than your hair color, unless you have blonde hair. Then, go 2-3 shades darker. Here are some more tips:
If you have blond or light colored hair, use a light brown or medium brown.
For brown hair or medium-colored hair, use a medium or dark brown.
If you have black hair, use a very dark brown. Never use black, as it will be too harsh.
If you have red hair, use a color close to your hair color, but two to three shades darker.
For other, unusual hair colors, such as blue, green, pink, or purple, consider using a shadow that matches your hair color, and going two to three shades darker. You can play around with colors, or use a color that matches your original eyebrow color.
3. Applying Makeup to your Lips and Cheeks
3-1. Apply the blush.
Choose a color that suits you, and apply it along or just barely on top of your cheekbones. How you apply your blush will depend on the type of blush you bought: cream or powder. If you are using a powder blush, then you can apply it with a powder brush. If you are using a cream blush, then lightly dab it onto your cheeks with your fingers, and then softly blend it outwards. Do not apply too much blush, however; you want just enough blush to give you a healthy glow. Here are some guidelines for finding the right shade of blush:
If you have light skin, go for soft pinks, light corals, and peaches.
If you have medium skin, go for rich pinks, warm mauves, and deep peaches.
If you have dark skin, go for deep fuchsias, warm browns, and tangerines.
3-2. Consider adding some bronzer.
For a healthy, sun-kissed look, you can apply some bronzer.
Bronzer usually doesn't go on the nose, unless you're contouring, and then it's in very specific areas of the nose.
Generally bronzer can go all over the face, but defines the face more when applied along jawline, under blush, and along the top of the forehead.
3-3. Outline your lips with lip liner.
Choose a color that matches your lipstick color. If you wish to have fuller lips, then make the line just outside your natural lip line. If you want to make your lips appear less full, then draw just inside the lip line.
3-4. Fill your lips in with lipstick.
You can run the lipstick directly over your lips, or you can use a lipstick brush. If you are using a lip brush, simply sweep it across the lipstick, and then run it over your lip. Be sure to stay within your lip lines. Once you have finished applying your lipstick, you can get rid of the excess by pressing your lips down on a piece of folded tissue.
If you have really dry lips, then put some chap stick or lip balm before you put on your lipstick. This will help soften your lips and prevent too many creases.
You can make your lipstick last longer by placing a tissue over your lips, and then dusting translucent powder over the tissue. Just enough powder will seep through the tissue to seal the lipstick in.
For extra glimmer, apply a coat of lip gloss.
3-5. Consider using lip gloss instead of lip liner and lipstick.
If you are going for a neutral, natural look, you can omit the lip liner and lipstick, and brush on a coat of lip gloss instead. Lip gloss works well for the day time, because it is soft and light; lipstick works best for evenings.
Tips
Choose colors that suit your skin tone and undertone. Using the wrong shade can make your face look ashen and unnatural.
Consider setting your makeup once you have finished applying it with a light dusting of translucent face powder. You can also use makeup setting spray instead.
Don't hesitate to ask the sales person at your local beauty shop for advice. He or she can help you find the best color of makeup for you.
Warnings
Do not go to sleep in your makeup. Not only will you wake up to a messy, makeup-smeared face, but you will also clog your pores up. This will lead to breakouts. Always clean your face before going to sleep.
Some people can be allergic to the ingredients in makeup. If you develop any allergies, stop using your makeup immediately, and consider using organic or mineral-based makeup instead.

Run it along the crease of your eye, going in an arch starting from the outer corner and following the shape of your natural eye socket, or where your eyelids fold in when you open your eyes.\\n2-6. Blend your eye shadow.\\nUsing a small, fluffy brush, go over the eyelid, where the lid meets the crease. Next, go over the brow, where the crease meets the brow. When you blend, run your brush from the inner corner of your eye to the outer and back to the inner in a rainbow motion.\\nIf you brushed loose powder beneath your eye, you can dust it off after you have finished blending everything.\\n2-7. Apply the eyeliner.\\nPlace the tip of your eyeliner as close as possible to the lash line on your upper lid. Slowly draw a smooth line, going from the middle of your eyelid to the outer corner. Then, going from the middle to the inner corner. You can extend the eyeliner a little bit beyond the outer corner, creating a wing tip. Whether you use eyeliner pencil or liquid eyeliner depends entirely on what is easiest for you to work with. Here are some more tips on applying eye liner:\\nFor a natural, daytime look, use brown or black-brown liner. For a more defined or evening look, use black eyeliner.\\nIt helps if you hold a pocket mirror in your other hand, and look down at the mirror while applying the eyeliner.\\nYou can also close your eye partway, and gently pull on the outer corner of your eye, stretching the lid. Draw your eyeliner in a neat line.\\nYou can use eyeliner or eye shadow on your bottom lid. Eyeliner will give you a more defined look, while a thin line of charcoal or dark brown eye shadow will give you a softer look.\\n2-8. Apply the mascara.\\nStart applying your mascara from the middle of your eye. Dip the brush into the container and pull it out, dragging it along the rim of the container to remove any excess mascara. Bring the brush as close as possible to your lash line and gently pull it up, wiggling it from side to side slightly; lower your eyelids at the same time as you are pulling the brush up. Repeat the process for the outer and inner corners of your eye.\\nYou can apply some mascara to your bottom lashes. Simply bring the brush as close as possible to the lower lash line, and brush downward.\\n2-9. Consider shading in your eyebrows.\\nUnless you have very thick eyebrows, you might want to fill them in. You can use eyebrow pencil or eye shadow. Follow the natural curve of you eyebrow, making the color softer and lighter the closer it gets to your nose. In general, you want to use a color that is two to three shades lighter than your hair color, unless you have blonde hair. Then, go 2-3 shades darker. Here are some more tips:\\nIf you have blond or light colored hair, use a light brown or medium brown.\\nFor brown hair or medium-colored hair, use a medium or dark brown.\\nIf you have black hair, use a very dark brown. Never use black, as it will be too harsh.\\nIf you have red hair, use a color close to your hair color, but two to three shades darker.\\nFor other, unusual hair colors, such as blue, green, pink, or purple, consider using a shadow that matches your hair color, and going two to three shades darker. You can play around with colors, or use a color that matches your original eyebrow color.\\n3. Applying Makeup to your Lips and Cheeks\\n3-1. Apply the blush.\\nChoose a color that suits you, and apply it along or just barely on top of your cheekbones. How you apply your blush will depend on the type of blush you bought: cream or powder. If you are using a powder blush, then you can apply it with a powder brush. If you are using a cream blush, then lightly dab it onto your cheeks with your fingers, and then softly blend it outwards. Do not apply too much blush, however; you want just enough blush to give you a healthy glow. Here are some guidelines for finding the right shade of blush:\\nIf you have light skin, go for soft pinks, light corals, and peaches.\\nIf you have medium skin, go for rich pinks, warm mauves, and deep peaches.\\nIf you have dark skin, go for deep fuchsias, warm browns, and tangerines.\\n3-2. Consider adding some bronzer.\\nFor a healthy, sun-kissed look, you can apply some bronzer.\\nBronzer usually doesn't go on the nose, unless you're contouring, and then it's in very specific areas of the nose.\\nGenerally bronzer can go all over the face, but defines the face more when applied along jawline, under blush, and along the top of the forehead.\\n3-3. Outline your lips with lip liner.\\nChoose a color that matches your lipstick color. If you wish to have fuller lips, then make the line just outside your natural lip line. If you want to make your lips appear less full, then draw just inside the lip line.\\n3-4. Fill your lips in with lipstick.\\nYou can run the lipstick directly over your lips, or you can use a lipstick brush. If you are using a lip brush, simply sweep it across the lipstick, and then run it over your lip. Be sure to stay within your lip lines. Once you have finished applying your lipstick, you can get rid of the excess by pressing your lips down on a piece of folded tissue.\\nIf you have really dry lips, then put some chap stick or lip balm before you put on your lipstick. This will help soften your lips and prevent too many creases.\\nYou can make your lipstick last longer by placing a tissue over your lips, and then dusting translucent powder over the tissue. Just enough powder will seep through the tissue to seal the lipstick in.\\nFor extra glimmer, apply a coat of lip gloss.\\n3-5. Consider using lip gloss instead of lip liner and lipstick.\\nIf you are going for a neutral, natural look, you can omit the lip liner and lipstick, and brush on a coat of lip gloss instead. Lip gloss works well for the day time, because it is soft and light; lipstick works best for evenings.\\nTips\\nChoose colors that suit your skin tone and undertone. Using the wrong shade can make your face look ashen and unnatural.\\nConsider setting your makeup once you have finished applying it with a light dusting of translucent face powder. You can also use makeup setting spray instead.\\nDon't hesitate to ask the sales person at your local beauty shop for advice. He or she can help you find the best color of makeup for you.\\nWarnings\\nDo not go to sleep in your makeup. Not only will you wake up to a messy, makeup-smeared face, but you will also clog your pores up. This will lead to breakouts. Always clean your face before going to sleep.\\nSome people can be allergic to the ingredients in makeup. If you develop any allergies, stop using your makeup immediately, and consider using organic or mineral-based makeup instead.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Why does it feel like every makeup tutorial on the web covers super wacky, complicated styles?

1,857 | How to Apply Basic Stage Makeup (for Women) | 1. Foundation and Contour
1-1. Wash and moisturize your face to create a smooth base for makeup.
Use warm water and a mild cleanser to wash your face. Rinse your skin thoroughly and pat it gently with a towel to dry it. Then, apply an oil-free moisturizer all over your face and give it a few minutes to soak in before proceeding.
If your skin is dry or flaky, consider gently exfoliating after you cleanse or use an exfoliating cleanser to slough away rough patches.
1-2. Use a sponge or makeup brush to apply oil-free foundation.
Go with a full coverage liquid foundation that matches your skin tone or that’s one shade darker than your skin tone. Apply the foundation all over your face to even out your skin tone and give you a nice base to work on. Be sure to blend out thoroughly at the hairline and jawline.
If you have warm or reddish undertones, look for a foundation with a yellow or golden finish. If your character is supposed to be sick or tired, go with a foundation that has cool undertones.
Consider applying primer before foundation. It’s not required, but it can help makeup last longer, especially under the hot stage lights.
1-3. Apply concealer
For dark circles, use a peachy concealer to color correct the purple under your eyes, then follow it up with a concealer that matches your foundation. Then, dot concealer onto blemishes individually with your finger or a makeup brush and blend it out for a seamless look.
If you don’t have dark circles or blemishes, you don’t need to use concealer.
1-4. Set your foundation and concealer with translucent powder.
Use a fluffy powder brush to apply a light dusting of translucent powder all over your face. A light dusting is all you need to set the foundation and concealer and mattify any areas that look oily.
Mattifying is important, since you don’t want your face to look shiny under the stage lights.
1-5. Contour and highlight your face for extra definition
Apply bronzer that’s 1-2 shades darker than your foundation to your cheekbones, temples, and jawline to define those features. Use a fluffy brush to blend the bronzer seamlessly into the foundation. Then, apply a highlighting powder or cream that’s 1-2 shades paler than your foundation to your brow bones and along the top of your cheekbones. Be sure to feather out any harsh lines with a fluffy blush to blend your highlighter into the rest of your makeup.
You don’t have to do this for basic stage makeup, it can give your face a more chiseled appearance from a distance.
If you don’t have bronzer on hand, try using a brown eyeshadow.
1-6. Apply blush
Use a fluffy brush to apply powdered blush to each cheekbone, starting on the apple of each cheek, which is usually directly under the center of your eyes. Then, sweep the color along your cheekbones and blend out at the hairline to get rid of any harsh lines.
Use a blush color that complements your skin tone. Peachy blushes tend to look good on warm undertones, and pinks and roses complement cool undertones.
2. Eyes and Lips
2-1. Fill in your eyebrows with a matching brow powder or pencil.
Eyebrows can get lost under stage lights, so it’s important to emphasize them. Use a small makeup brush to fill in your natural brows with brow powder that matches the color of your natural brows, or use a matching eyebrow pencil to fill them in. Create a gentle arch at the highest point of your natural brow, which helps to frame your facial features.
If you’re blond, use a light or medium brown pencil or brow powder to fill in your brows to ensure they show up from a distance.
To further define your eyebrows, you can apply a white eyeliner or cream directly beneath each eyebrow, which will provide a sharp contrast. Be sure to blend the makeup well so that you don't have a harsh white line.
2-2. Apply neutral eyeshadow to give your eyes dimension.
Select three shadows: a cream color, a light brown, and a medium to dark brown. Use a makeup brush to apply the medium shade all over both lids and slightly over the crease. Use the lightest color to highlight directly under the eyebrows. Apply the darkest color to your crease and sweep it out to the edge of your sockets.
If you need to create a wide-eyed look, skip the darker colors and just use the lightest eyeshadow all over your lids. To make your eyes look smaller, apply only the darkest color from your eyelashes to your crease.
You don’t have to use eyeshadow primer before applying eyeshadow, but it can help your eyeshadow last longer.
2-3. Apply eyeshadow in brighter colors if your role calls for it.
Basic stage makeup usually means a neutral eye palette, but if you're playing a dramatic or colorful role, consider using brighter eyeshadow colors instead. Choose a light, medium, and dark variation of the same color and apply the eyeshadow the same way you'd apply neutrals.
Blues and greens are good choices for dramatic or colorful characters.
For a more sinister vibe, try a deep berry color.
2-4. Accentuate your eyes with dark brown pencil eyeliner.
Start at the inner corner and draw a thin line along your lash line to the outer edge of each eye. Stay as close to the lash line as possible! Then, draw a thin line along your bottom lashes for further definition.
Waterproof formulas will hold up the best on stage.
For dramatic roles, use thick black eyeliner to accentuate your eyes.
Use a liquid liner on your upper lash line if you want more definition.
2-5. Apply 1-2 coats of dark brown or black mascara to the upper lashes.
Place the mascara wand at the base of your lashes and sweep up, wiggling the wand slightly as you pull it through your lashes. This helps to coat the lashes as liberally as possible. If you want to emphasize your eyes even more, apply a second coat of mascara to your upper lashes.
Use a waterproof formula to prevent your mascara from running on stage.
You can also apply false eyelashes if you want your eyes to really pop.
Applying mascara to the lower lashes can make eyes look smaller, so it’s usually best to skip it.
2-6. Outline your lips with a red or pink lip liner.
You don’t need to overdraw your lips! Stick to your natural lip line and outline your mouth with the lip liner. What color you use really depends on your role and your studio’s preference. Pinks usually work best for younger roles, while reds work best for older and more dramatic roles.
Pick the shade that makes the most sense for your specific character.
2-7. Fill in your lips with a matching lipstick color.
Stick to brighter reds and pinks, since darker shades can look black from a distance. Fill in both the top and bottom lips with the lipstick formula of your choice. Look for long-wearing matte formulas. Shiny finishes aren’t recommended for the stage, since the shine can create a glare under stage lights.
Cream formulas work well for dry lips. Liquid matte formulas have great staying power, but can be drying. Choose the lipstick that works best for you!
3. Setting and Removing
3-1. Mist your face with setting spray or powder to lock your look in place.
Setting sprays can prevent your makeup from melting and running under the hot stage lights. If you don’t have setting spray on hand, give your face another all-over dusting with your loose translucent powder to set your makeup and mattify your face.
If you need to, you can also powder your face in between scenes to prolong your stage makeup.
3-2. Remove your makeup
Don’t forget to remove your makeup after the show, no matter how tired you are! Cream and oil-based makeup remover formulas tend to work best, but if you have super oily skin, you can use something oil-free. Soak a cotton pad with makeup remover and wipe your face thoroughly until your makeup is gone.
Makeup remover wipes work well if you’re on the go.
Sleeping in your makeup can wreak havoc on your skin and cause serious breakouts.
3-3. Use a mild cleanser and moisturizer after removing your makeup.
Follow up the removal product with a mild cleanser to rinse away any lingering makeup residue. Use warm water and be sure to pat your skin gently with a towel to dry it. Then, apply your favorite moisturizer all over your face to keep your skin looking supple and healthy.
If you're prone to acne, consider using an over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide cleanser.
Tips
Stage lights wash out facial features, so it's important for makeup to be bolder than your everyday look. For smaller venues, go for slight exaggeration. For bigger venues, use more dramatic makeup.[24]

It’s not required, but it can help makeup last longer, especially under the hot stage lights.\\n1-3. Apply concealer\\nFor dark circles, use a peachy concealer to color correct the purple under your eyes, then follow it up with a concealer that matches your foundation. Then, dot concealer onto blemishes individually with your finger or a makeup brush and blend it out for a seamless look.\\nIf you don’t have dark circles or blemishes, you don’t need to use concealer.\\n1-4. Set your foundation and concealer with translucent powder.\\nUse a fluffy powder brush to apply a light dusting of translucent powder all over your face. A light dusting is all you need to set the foundation and concealer and mattify any areas that look oily.\\nMattifying is important, since you don’t want your face to look shiny under the stage lights.\\n1-5. Contour and highlight your face for extra definition\\nApply bronzer that’s 1-2 shades darker than your foundation to your cheekbones, temples, and jawline to define those features. Use a fluffy brush to blend the bronzer seamlessly into the foundation. Then, apply a highlighting powder or cream that’s 1-2 shades paler than your foundation to your brow bones and along the top of your cheekbones. Be sure to feather out any harsh lines with a fluffy blush to blend your highlighter into the rest of your makeup.\\nYou don’t have to do this for basic stage makeup, it can give your face a more chiseled appearance from a distance.\\nIf you don’t have bronzer on hand, try using a brown eyeshadow.\\n1-6. Apply blush\\nUse a fluffy brush to apply powdered blush to each cheekbone, starting on the apple of each cheek, which is usually directly under the center of your eyes. Then, sweep the color along your cheekbones and blend out at the hairline to get rid of any harsh lines.\\nUse a blush color that complements your skin tone. Peachy blushes tend to look good on warm undertones, and pinks and roses complement cool undertones.\\n2. Eyes and Lips\\n2-1. Fill in your eyebrows with a matching brow powder or pencil.\\nEyebrows can get lost under stage lights, so it’s important to emphasize them. Use a small makeup brush to fill in your natural brows with brow powder that matches the color of your natural brows, or use a matching eyebrow pencil to fill them in. Create a gentle arch at the highest point of your natural brow, which helps to frame your facial features.\\nIf you’re blond, use a light or medium brown pencil or brow powder to fill in your brows to ensure they show up from a distance.\\nTo further define your eyebrows, you can apply a white eyeliner or cream directly beneath each eyebrow, which will provide a sharp contrast. Be sure to blend the makeup well so that you don't have a harsh white line.\\n2-2. Apply neutral eyeshadow to give your eyes dimension.\\nSelect three shadows: a cream color, a light brown, and a medium to dark brown. Use a makeup brush to apply the medium shade all over both lids and slightly over the crease. Use the lightest color to highlight directly under the eyebrows. Apply the darkest color to your crease and sweep it out to the edge of your sockets.\\nIf you need to create a wide-eyed look, skip the darker colors and just use the lightest eyeshadow all over your lids. To make your eyes look smaller, apply only the darkest color from your eyelashes to your crease.\\nYou don’t have to use eyeshadow primer before applying eyeshadow, but it can help your eyeshadow last longer.\\n2-3. Apply eyeshadow in brighter colors if your role calls for it.\\nBasic stage makeup usually means a neutral eye palette, but if you're playing a dramatic or colorful role, consider using brighter eyeshadow colors instead. Choose a light, medium, and dark variation of the same color and apply the eyeshadow the same way you'd apply neutrals.\\nBlues and greens are good choices for dramatic or colorful characters.\\nFor a more sinister vibe, try a deep berry color.\\n2-4. Accentuate your eyes with dark brown pencil eyeliner.\\nStart at the inner corner and draw a thin line along your lash line to the outer edge of each eye. Stay as close to the lash line as possible! Then, draw a thin line along your bottom lashes for further definition.\\nWaterproof formulas will hold up the best on stage.\\nFor dramatic roles, use thick black eyeliner to accentuate your eyes.\\nUse a liquid liner on your upper lash line if you want more definition.\\n2-5. Apply 1-2 coats of dark brown or black mascara to the upper lashes.\\nPlace the mascara wand at the base of your lashes and sweep up, wiggling the wand slightly as you pull it through your lashes. This helps to coat the lashes as liberally as possible. If you want to emphasize your eyes even more, apply a second coat of mascara to your upper lashes.\\nUse a waterproof formula to prevent your mascara from running on stage.\\nYou can also apply false eyelashes if you want your eyes to really pop.\\nApplying mascara to the lower lashes can make eyes look smaller, so it’s usually best to skip it.\\n2-6. Outline your lips with a red or pink lip liner.\\nYou don’t need to overdraw your lips! Stick to your natural lip line and outline your mouth with the lip liner. What color you use really depends on your role and your studio’s preference. Pinks usually work best for younger roles, while reds work best for older and more dramatic roles.\\nPick the shade that makes the most sense for your specific character.\\n2-7. Fill in your lips with a matching lipstick color.\\nStick to brighter reds and pinks, since darker shades can look black from a distance. Fill in both the top and bottom lips with the lipstick formula of your choice. Look for long-wearing matte formulas. Shiny finishes aren’t recommended for the stage, since the shine can create a glare under stage lights.\\nCream formulas work well for dry lips. Liquid matte formulas have great staying power, but can be drying. Choose the lipstick that works best for you!\\n3. Setting and Removing\\n3-1. Mist your face with setting spray or powder to lock your look in place.\\nSetting sprays can prevent your makeup from melting and running under the hot stage lights. If you don’t have setting spray on hand, give your face another all-over dusting with your loose translucent powder to set your makeup and mattify your face.\\nIf you need to, you can also powder your face in between scenes to prolong your stage makeup.\\n3-2. Remove your makeup\\nDon’t forget to remove your makeup after the show, no matter how tired you are! Cream and oil-based makeup remover formulas tend to work best, but if you have super oily skin, you can use something oil-free. Soak a cotton pad with makeup remover and wipe your face thoroughly until your makeup is gone.\\nMakeup remover wipes work well if you’re on the go.\\nSleeping in your makeup can wreak havoc on your skin and cause serious breakouts.\\n3-3. Use a mild cleanser and moisturizer after removing your makeup.\\nFollow up the removal product with a mild cleanser to rinse away any lingering makeup residue. Use warm water and be sure to pat your skin gently with a towel to dry it. Then, apply your favorite moisturizer all over your face to keep your skin looking supple and healthy.\\nIf you're prone to acne, consider using an over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide cleanser.\\nTips\\nStage lights wash out facial features, so it's important for makeup to be bolder than your everyday look. For smaller venues, go for slight exaggeration. For bigger venues, use more dramatic makeup.[24]\\nX\\nResearch source\\nUse waterproof and long lasting formulas to prevent your makeup from melting.\\nUse good quality makeup brushes and clean them well after each use.\\nWarnings\\nAlways remove your makeup after your performance to prevent breakouts and other skin issues.\\nYou may want to talk to your studio before you get started with makeup application.

1,858 | How to Apply Benzoyl Peroxide | 1. Applying a Lotion, Gel, Foam, or Stick Formula
1-1. Wash your face with warm water and a mild soap or facial cleanser.
Before applying benzoyl peroxide, remove any makeup or other skin products. Start with clean hands and use a mild, non-medicated facial soap or cleanser to wash away oil and dirt from your face. Then pat your skin dry with a soft towel.
Refrain from using any exfoliating or abrasive products.
1-2. Spread the medicated lotion, gel, foam, or stick formula into your skin.
Squeeze a dollop of medicated lotion, gel, or foam into your palm. Then dab the product onto your skin with your fingertips. For a stick formula, swipe the solid medicated product over your skin. Aim for complete coverage of the affected area. Finally, massage it gently into your skin and leave it on.
Follow the dosage amount recommended by your dermatologist or the over-the-counter product's packaging; don't use any more or less than directed.
For most products, you'll need to apply a very thin layer of the benzoyl peroxide to prevent irritating your skin.
Don't rinse off a leave-on product. Likewise, don't leave on a medicated cleansing product that's designed to be rinsed off.
1-3. Use a leave-on lotion, gel, foam, or stick no more than 4 times each day.
Apply the benzoyl peroxide as frequently or infrequently as your dermatologist recommends. A typical routine would be a morning and evening application. But don't exceed the maximum recommendations outlined by your dermatologist or your over-the-counter products' manufacturer.
A benzoyl peroxide lotion or gel can be applied up to 4 times per day, while a stick or foam formula should be used only up to 3 times per day.
1-4. Wait at least 5 minutes before applying moisturizer or makeup.
Benzoyl peroxide will dry out your skin, so apply a noncomedogenic moisturizer containing at least SPF 30 to your skin on a daily basis following treatment. Allow at least 5 minutes between the treatment and moisturizer application to allow your skin to fully absorb the benzoyl peroxide. Follow up with cosmetics if you wish.
Avoid using any facial products containing alcohol as these will further dry out your skin.
Opt for high-quality, noncomedogenic foundation, concealer, and other products to prevent further irritation to your skin.
2. Washing with a Cleansing Bar or Liquid
2-1. Moisten your affected skin with warm water.
Start with clean hands and splash warm water onto the affected area. Medicated cleansing liquids and bars can be used to wash your face or back. Try washing your back in the shower, but feel free to wash your face over a sink.
There's no need to use any other face wash beforehand. However, you should take off any makeup or other skin products before using benzoyl peroxide cleanser.
2-2. Lather the medicated soap into the affected area.
Pour a dollop of medicated liquid soap into your hand and massage it into either your face or back, as directed by your dermatologist or the over-the-counter product packaging. Or lather up a medicated cleansing bar and rub the suds into your skin.
Only apply benzoyl peroxide to affected parts of your back. Use a mild, non-medicated body wash or soap bar to cleanse the rest of your body in the shower
2-3. Rinse off the medicated cleanser after 2 to 5 minutes.
Once you've spread the product across the affected area, allow it to sit undisturbed for around 2 to 5 minutes to allow the medication to work into your skin. Then rinse off the cleanser thoroughly with warm water.
Use a soft, non-abrasive towel to gently pat your skin dry.
If you're washing your back, where the skin is thicker, leave the cleanser on closer to 5 minutes.
2-4. Wash your skin with the medicated cleanser 1 to 3 times per day.
A cleansing benzoyl peroxide bar can be used up to 3 times each day, while liquid formula should be used once or twice at most. A typical routine you can follow is washing your affected skin once in the morning and once before bed.
Remember to closely follow your dermatologist's guidance and the product packaging for correct dosage and timing.
3. Wearing a Facial Mask
3-1. Wash your face with a non-medicated cleanser and warm water.
Start with clean hands. Splash warm water onto your face and gently massage the soap into your face, before rinsing it off completely. Pat your skin dry using a soft towel.
Remove any makeup and other skin products before using the mild cleanser.
Only use non-medicated cleanser and nothing abrasive or exfoliating that may irritate your skin.
3-2. Smear the facial mask onto dry skin in a thick layer.
Pick up a dollop of the product with your fingertips and dab it onto your face. Build up an opaque layer that completely covers the affected area. Then wash your hands with soap to remove the excess.
Refrain from applying the mask to non-affected areas, or getting the benzoyl peroxide in sensitive areas like your eyes, nose, and mouth.
3-3. Wait 15 to 25 minutes before rinsing off the mask with warm water.
Leave the mask on for about 15 to 25 minutes, or as directed by your dermatologist or the product manufacturer. The mask may start to dry but don't disturb it. After the time is up, thoroughly rinse off the medicated product from your face and pat your skin dry.
You may want to wash your hands again after rinsing your face.
3-4. Apply a medicated face mask once each week.
Unlike other formulae, a face mask shouldn't be used daily. Instead, apply it just 1 time per week. Follow the timing and dosage instructions outlined by your dermatologist for the best results.
4. Using a Medicated Shaving Cream
4-1. Moisten the affected skin with warm water.
With clean hands and a clean face, splash warm water onto your chin and jaw area.
Don't dry off your skin; keep it moist to allow the shaving cream to soften and medicate your skin.
4-2. Rub the medicated shaving cream into your skin before shaving.
Use a moderate amount of cream, such as a quarter-sized dollop, as directed by your dermatologist or the product's usage directions. Massage it gently into your skin, covering the affected area as well as everywhere else you'll be shaving. Then proceed to shave as you usually do.
Make sure to use a clean, sharp razor to prevent irritating your skin.
4-3. Rinse off your face with warm water and pat your skin dry.
After shaving, splash your face with warm water to wash away all of the stubble debris and benzoyl peroxide cream. Use a soft towel to gently pat your skin dry.
Rinse off your razor under warm water as well to completely remove the medicated product.
Refrain from applying any aftershave. Aftershave will dry out your skin and may cause irritation.

1,859 | How to Apply Biofreeze | 1. Applying Biofreeze from a Gel Pack
1-1. Put a latex glove on your dominant hand.
Since you’ll only be applying the Biofreeze using 1 hand, you only need to put a glove on the hand you’ll be using to rub the gel in. You can use this hand to apply Biofreeze to yourself or to another person.
If you don’t have a latex glove, you can apply the Biofreeze using a bare hand.
1-2. Squeeze some Biofreeze onto your glove.
Rather than applying Biofreeze directly to the skin—whether yours or someone else’s—apply the Biofreeze to the glove. This will prevent you from emptying out an excessive amount of Biofreeze all at once.
Start by squeezing ⁄4 teaspoon (1.2 mL) of the Biofreeze onto the tip of your gloved index finger.
1-3. Rub Biofreeze onto the painful area.
Use your fingertips and palm to rub Biofreeze into the area afflicted with muscle, joint, or arthritic pain. Take at least 2 or 3 minutes to work the gel in. It needs to be absorbed into the surface of the skin for its full effect.
If you’re applying Biofreeze to someone else, ask them where the pain is located, and apply the gel to the area they describe.
If you need Biofreeze on a hard-to-reach spot (like the center of your back), ask a friend to rub the gel on for you.
1-4. Throw away the latex glove.
After you’ve applied the Biofreeze, dispose of the latex glove without touching the gel with your unprotected hand. Use your ungloved hand to grasp the bottom of the latex glove, and pull it off of your hand in one smooth motion. This will turn the glove inside out, with the Biofreeze on the inside.
Throw the glove away in a trash can. The trash can should have a lid, and be out of the reach of children or pets.
1-5. Wash your hands immediately after applying the Biofreeze.
If you didn’t wear a glove while applying Biofreeze—or if you accidentally smeared some gel on an exposed hand—wash your hands right away. Scrub the Biofreeze thoroughly, since it can cause severe agitation if it comes in contact with your:
Eyes or mouth.
Ears.
Armpits.
Crotch area.
1-6. Seal the Biofreeze gel pack with a paperclip.
If you haven’t used up all of the Biofreeze, save the remainder in case the muscle or sprain pain comes back. Fold over the open end of the gel pack, and clip a paperclip over the open side.
2. Applying Biofreeze from a Roll-On Tube
2-1. Shake the tube thoroughly before using.
For the Biofreeze to have its full efficiency, it needs to be well shaken. Firmly shake the tube for at least 30 seconds.
This and other directions should be printed on the Biofreeze tube itself. Be sure to read and follow all of the directions before beginning to apply the Biofreeze.
2-2. Apply the Biofreeze using strokes in a single direction.
Use the roller applicator to roll the liquid Biofreeze onto your skin. As indicated on the packaging instructions, apply the gel in a single direction. Press the roller firmly onto your skin, and apply for 10-15 seconds.
Do not apply Biofreeze by rolling it back and forth or by rubbing it around in circles.
2-3. Squeeze the tube while you’re applying Biofreeze.
Squeezing the tube will force more Biofreeze gel out onto the roller ball, which in turn will apply more gel to your skin. Put about the same amount of pressure on the tube as it would take to dent a tennis ball.
If you apply Biofreeze without squeezing the tube, less of the gel will be applied to your skin. You may not feel the full effects of the Biofreeze, and may be left with lingering muscle pain.
2-4. Leave the area uncovered after applying Biofreeze.
Do not bandage the skin to which you’ve applied gel. The skin needs time to absorb the Biofreeze gel, and applying a bandage will only soak up gel and prevent it from reaching deep tissue.
Follow any other safety precautions as printed on the Biofreeze tube. Do not apply more than 4 times on the same area in a day.
Tips
Although Biofreeze can be bought over the counter at most drugstore or supermarket pharmacies, check with a doctor before using the product. Tell your doctor if you’re taking any other medications as well.[15]
X
Research source
Store the Biofreeze away from any sources of heat or open flame. Biofreeze is flammable and could ignite if stored near a heat source.[16]

1,860 | How to Apply Blanket Binding | 1. Steps
1-1. Measure all 4 sides of your blanket to determine the amount of blanket binding you need.
You can also determine the amount of binding by multiplying the length of one side by 2 and the width by 2. Add the results to find out how much binding you need.
1-2. Sew the ends of 2 or more packages of blanket binding so you have the length you need.
Use a 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) seam allowance, reducing the amount of bulk by sewing the seam diagonally.
1-3. Pin the blanket binding into place on 1 side of the blanket.
Pin the binding close to a corner and leave about 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) as a tail to tuck under. Catch the front and back of the binding as you are pinning it to the blanket.
1-4. Miter each corner of the blanket binding.
Extend the blanket binding past each corner so you can make a diagonal fold.
Turn the corner and look at the underside of the blanket to make sure the corner of the binding looks neat.
Push the extra blanket binding with the head of a pin to get the extra binding inside the mitered corner. Pin both mitered edges on the top and bottom of the blanket. Repeat this step for the remaining 3 blanket corners.
1-5. Pin the binding to the straight edges of the blanket on the remaining 3 sides.
1-6. Tuck the beginning and ending edges together and pin them securely to the edge of the blanket.
1-7. Sew the binding in place using your sewing machine.
Use a straight stitch, zig-zag stitch or a decorative stitch.
Keep your stitching as straight as you can. Stitch slowly to ensure that you sew a straight line and catch the top and bottom edges of the blanket binding.
1-8. Finished.
Tips
Backtack the mitered edge on the sewing machine. You will need to stop stitching, cut the threads (both the bobbin thread and upper thread), reposition the blanket and begin stitching again due to the length and width of the blanket. Stop, cut the threads and reposition the blanket as you approach the remaining 3 corners.

The recent trend for using household bleach on the face is believed to have started with a study conducted at Stanford University School of Medicine. This study found that diluted bleach helped to heal and renew the skin of mice with dermatitis.
The object of this study was to find a solution for radiation dermatitis - an unpleasant skin condition that often affects patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatment. However, researchers believe that in the future, bleach could also be a key ingredient in treating skin problems caused by sun damage and aging.
Although this study indicates that bleach could be the answer to many skin issues, it is important to remember that the test subjects were mice, not humans. Human trials have yet to be conducted.
In addition, the various applications of bleach as an ingredient in household beauty products requires further study.
1-2. Be aware that it is very difficult to achieve the correct dilution at home.
Another point to take into consideration is the fact that the Stanford researchers used a very specific dilution rate in their study - .0005, to be exact.
Most household bleaches have a concentration somewhere between 5% and 8%, making them significantly stronger than the solution deemed safe for use during the study.
Even if you attempted to dilute bleach yourself before use, it would be very difficult to achieve a concentration of .0005 without the necessary knowledge concerning dilution methods, or the required tools.
The effects of using a dilution higher than .0005 have not been studied, and could have an adverse effect on skin.
1-3. Understand that using bleach on the face is not recommended by doctors.
Although medical researchers are currently looking into the applications of bleach in anti-aging and skin rejuvenation products, the use of household bleach as an at-home face cleanser is not recommended by doctors.
In fact, many doctors would strongly advise against it. Dr. Mona Gohara, a professor of dermatology at Yale School of Medicine states "Bleach is absolutely too irritating and should not be used as a face wash ... If used incorrectly, bleach can cause extreme inflammation and dryness."
While Dr. Daniel Shapiro, a renowned Phoenix-based cosmetic surgeon has stated "I wouldn't recommend trying the bleach facial at home ... I do see how bleach can be a potentially promising product for anti-aging ... But it will need a great amount of work."
1-4. Know that bleach can burn and irritate the skin.
Bleach is a corrosive substance - in fact, in high concentrations it can burn a hole through stainless steel. And even in low concentrations bleach can burn the skin, leaving it red, dry and irritated. Therefore, although the object of using bleach on your face is to to make it clear and glowing, you could very likely end up producing the exact opposite effect.
1-5. If you decide to go ahead with using bleach on your face, make sure to follow the proper safety precautions.
Ensure that the bleach is highly diluted first. The dilution used by the Stanford researchers was less concentrated than the water in a swimming pool.
As it is difficult to work with very tiny amounts of bleach, it is easier and safer to use a large quantity of water instead. Therefore, you should make the bleach solution a gallon jug by mixing 1/4 teaspoon of bleach with three quarts and 12 ounces of warm water.
When it's ready, label the container clearly and mark with a skull and crossbones and poisonous. Store the jug where it can be stored for later use. Do put the bottle of bleach in the refrigerator, or anywhere it could be mistaken for a beverage.
Make sure to perform a patch test on a small piece of skin before applying the bleach solution to your entire face. Use a cotton pad to apply a dab of the bleach on the skin below the jawline. Wait 24 hours to see if any redness, dryness or irritation occurs before proceeding.
If no irritation occurs and you decide to proceed with the bleach treatment, apply only a thin layer of the diluted bleach solution to the entire face (carefully avoiding the eyes, mouth and nostrils) and leave for a maximum of ten minutes.
Thoroughly rinse the bleach from your face using a face wash and running water, then immediately moisturize the skin. If any irritation occurs, do not repeat the treatment.
It is strongly advised that you consult with your doctor or dermatologist before using bleach on your skin. There are many safer, more effective options out there, whether you wish to target skin discoloration, acne or signs of aging.
2. Using Alternative Skin Lightening Products
2-1. Try specific facial bleaching creams.
A much safer option than using household bleach is to use bleaching products designed specifically for the face. These products can be bought over-the-counter and often contain ingredients such as hydrogen peroxide, which is a well-known bleaching agent.
Facial bleaching creams are designed to brighten the skin and hide unwanted facial hair. They should be used according to the instructions on the packaging.
You should discontinue use of these products if any irritation occurs.
2-2. Consider using hydroquinone.
Hydroquinone is an effective skin lightening cream which uses retinoids (acidic vitamin A) instead of bleach.
It is mainly used for treating skin discoloration and dark spots, as it reduces melanin in the skin. Hydroquinone creams should only be used at night, as they make skin hyper-sensitive to UV light.
Although 2% solutions of hydroquinone are available over-the-counter in the US (4% with a prescription), it is important to be aware that products containing hydroquinone have been banned in large parts of Europe and Asia due to their potential carcinogenic properties.
As a result, you should consult with your dermatologist before using any hydroquinone products.
2-3. Use "brightening" creams.
If you are simply looking to brighten your complexion and achieve a more youthful, dewy look, then brightening creams are the way to go.
These creams are available over-the-counter and usually contain natural lightening agents such as kojic acid, glycolic acid, alpha hydroxy acids, vitamin C or arbutin.
These ingredients also work to inhibit melanin production and reduce pigmentation in the skin, but they are safer than hydroquinone.
2-4. Wear sunscreen everyday.
The sun is a major culprit when it comes to skin discoloration, dark spots and general signs of aging.
Therefore, it is imperative that you protect your face from harmful UV rays by wearing sunscreen everyday.
Simply by wearing sunscreen, you can protect your skin from becoming darker and prevent many of the skin problems associated with sun exposure, including skin cancer.
You should wear a minimum of factor 30, and wear a hat to protect your face from direct sunlight. You should even wear sunscreen in winter, as harmful UV rays can penetrate clouds and cause damage, even if it's not hot.
3. Using Home Remedies
3-1. Use lemon.
The citric acid contained in fresh lemon juice is an effective natural bleaching agent and can be used to brighten the complexion and to minimize discoloration and the appearance of dark spots.
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon and dilute to half strength with water. Dip a cotton ball into the liquid and dab onto the face, concentration on the areas you wish to brighten.
Leave the lemon juice to sit for 10 to 15 minutes, then wash off with cold running water and apply a nourishing moisturizer (as lemon juice can be drying). Repeat several times a week for best results.
A word of warning - never expose your skin to sunlight while the lemon is juice is on your face, the citric acid makes your skin extra sensitive and increases the risk of sun damage.
3-2. Try yogurt and turmeric.
Turmeric has been used in Indian skincare for hundreds of years, thanks to it's smoothing, lightening, anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.
To make a mask that won't stain your skin, mix 1 teaspoon of turmeric with 2 teaspoons of rice flour and 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt (or milk or cream).
Apply the mask to your face and leave to sit for 10 to 15 minutes, until hard. Rinse off with warm water, using a gentle scrubbing motion.
3-3. Use aloe vera.
Aloe vera is a gentle, moisturizing natural substance which soothes red, inflamed skin and helps to fade discoloration.
To use, simply snap a leaf from an aloe vera plant and squeeze to produce a clear, gel-like sap. Rub this sap all over your face and leave to sit on your skin for as long as you like.
Aloe vera is extremely gentle and safe to use, so you can apply the sap as often as you like.
3-4. Try raw potato.
Due to its high vitamin C content, the juice from potatoes is believed to work as a skin lightener. Vitamin C is used in many skin lightening products.
To try it, simply cut a well-washed potato in half, then rub the exposed flesh over the skin you wish to lighten. Leave for 10 to 15 minutes, then wash off.
Cucumbers and tomatoes are believed to have similar skin-lightening properties, as they also contain high quantities of vitamin C.
Tips
Bleach baths have been proven effective in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis on the body, as the bleach kills staph bacteria on the skin. To make a bleach bath, simply dilute a cap-full (and no more) of household bleach into a full bath of warm water. However, you may want to consult with your doctor/dermatologist before pursuing this treatment.
Warnings
Whenever you use a bleaching product, make sure to do a patch test on your wrist 24 hours in advance to confirm that you don't have an allergic reaction.
Bleach can be dangerous.

1,862 | How to Apply Blue Eyeshadow | 1. Creating a Base for a Blue Eyeshadow Look
1-1. Collect your makeup and tools.
Applying professional looking blue eyeshadow may seem like a challenge, but it is actually quite easy with the right tools and makeup. To create a blue eyeshadow look, you will need:
eyeshadows in white or nude, champagne, light brown, light turquoise blue, and dark turquoise blue
black eyeliner
a liner brush
a blending brush
a medium fluffy eyeshadow brush
black mascara
false eyelashes (optional)
1-2. Create a neutral base.
Applying a base layer of eyeshadow will help to ensure that your color looks even and stays on longer. Use a medium sized fluffy brush to apply an even layer of nude or white eyeshadow onto your eyelids. Start at your lash line and extend the eyeshadow all the way up to your eyebrows.
If you prefer, you can also apply primer before applying the base color. Applying primer to your eyelids before you begin will make your look last even longer and it can also prevent the colors from running.
1-3. Line your lower lash line with light turquoise blue.
Use a liner brush with a bit of turquoise eyeshadow on it to line your lower lash lines. Start the line a few centimeters away from the inner edges of your eyes, around where your irises begin.
Sweep the brush across your lower lash line keeping the line as close to your lashes as possible.
Then, extend the line out slightly from the corners of your eyes.
1-4. Apply light turquoise blue eyeshadow to your creases.
Next, switch to a blending brush and use it to apply some turquoise eyeshadow onto your creases. Make sure that you blend the color into your creases and extend it out past the corners of your eyes.
1-5. Blend the edges with a light brown eyeshadow.
After you have finished applying the turquoise eyeshadow, you will need to blend with some light brown eyeshadow. Use a blending brush with some light brown eyeshadow to blend the outer edges of the turquoise eyeshadow.
Blending the edges will help to prevent the turquoise from looking too stark against your skin. It will also add a little more complexity to the look.
1-6. Darken the turquoise.
After you have finished blending, you will need to deepen the turquoise eyeshadow by applying a darker shade of turquoise over the light turquoise areas.
Make sure that you follow the lines on your lower lash lines and creases to guide you as you apply the darker turquoise color.
1-7. Use white eyeshadow on your eyelids.
To brighten up your eyelids and clean up any turquoise shadow that got onto these areas, you will need to apply another layer of white eyeshadow over your eyelids. Use a medium fluffy brush to apply the white eyeshadow to your eyelids and only your eyelids.
Be careful not to cover up the turquoise areas of your crease and outer corners.
2. Adding Finishing Touches
2-1. Use a bit of eyeliner.
Adding a bit of black eyeliner will help to define your eyes and make this look a bit more dramatic. Apply a thin line of black eyeliner to your upper lash line and extend it out past the outer corners of your eyes. Continue to draw the line downwards and add a slight upturn to the line at the end.
You may want to use waterproof eyeliner to ensure that the eyeliner does not run.
2-2. Highlight your inner corners and brow bone.
Next, use a champagne colored eyeshadow to highlight the inner corners of your eyes. You can apply this eyeshadow with a small highlighter brush. Use short, quick strokes to highlight this area.
After you finish with your inner corners, you can apply a little more white eyeshadow to your brow bones.
2-3. Add some black mascara.
To complete your look, apply some mascara to your upper and lower lashes. Use black mascara for the most dramatic effects. Brown may not look as striking.
If you have some blue or turquoise mascara, you can experiment with those colors on your upper and/or lower lashes to see how they look.
Curl your eyelashes before you apply mascara. Curling your lashes with an eyelash curler adds volume and definition.
For even more dramatic lashes, you can apply some false eyelashes.
2-4. Apply lipstick.
You can use lipstick to enhance your look even more. Just make sure that you choose a lipstick color that will not clash with the blue.
For example, red or orange lipstick might clash with the turquoise blue eyeshadow. However, a pale pink, peachy pink, or nude color will go well with the turquoise blue and white eyeshadows.
2-5. Finished.
Tips
You can use a different shade of blue for this look if you are not fond of turquoise blue. For example, you can try a violet blue, navy blue, or an aqua blue instead.

1,863 | How to Apply Blush | 1. Nailing Down the Basics
1-1. Apply your base before your blush.
For the best results, you should first apply your foundation, then your concealer, your bronzer and then finally your blush. After applying your blush, you’ll put on your eyebrow makeup, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and finally mascara. It’s important to do this in order to make sure that your makeup looks balanced and stays where you apply it.
1-2. Lightly sweep your brush through your powdered blush.
If you’re using a powder, lightly sweep a medium-sized fluffy brush through the blush and then tap it to remove any excess. Apply the blush to your cheeks and then use a separate clean brush to blend well.
Brush downward at the end of blending to allow your facial hairs to lie smoothly on your skin's surface.
1-3. Dot and blend liquid blush with your finger.
If you’re using a cream or gel, dab a little on your ring finger. Dot the color first, then use your finger or a makeup sponge to blend it in. For the most natural look, finish blending with a blush brush.
Use a cream foundation if you’re using a cream blush for the best results.
1-4. Blot excess with a tissue.
Don’t soften your blush by going over it with a translucent powder because this can make your face color look dull. Instead, hold a tissue flat against your face and lightly and continually press a makeup sponge through it to your cheeks to remove a little powder. If you use cream blush, you can lightly dab your cheeks with just the tissue.
2. Complementing Your Face Shape with Blush
2-1. Apply blush to a heart-shaped face in a “C” shape.
If your face is more heart-shaped, apply your blush in a curved line from the top of your temple down to your cheekbone. Apply the blush a little more softly on your temple and gradually increase pressure as you approach the cheekbone area.
2-2. Avoid the apples of your cheeks if your face is round.
You can add more definition to your face if you suck in your cheeks and lightly sweep the blush brush in a line underneath your cheekbones. Don’t apply blush to the apples of your cheeks because this will make your face look more round.
2-3. Go from the cheekbone to the temple if your face is more oval.
Using soft strokes, move from the most prominent part of your cheekbone down towards the earlobe. Add a touch of blush just above the temple as well.
2-4. Apply blush in a circular motion if you have a square face.
Apply your blush directly to the apples of your cheeks in a circular motion to soften angular features and also draw attention to the most round part of your face.
3. Choosing a Blush
3-1. Buy a baby pink, peach, or sheer plum color if you’re fair-skinned.
Light pink and peach tend to be the best on lighter skin because they are the most natural-looking blush colors. Anything sheer, especially plum, also works well on fair skin because it’s on the translucent side and not so overwhelming in contrast.
3-2. Use an apricot or mauve color if you have a medium skin tone.
Apricot is great for adding a subtle warming effect to those with medium skin tones while mauve provides a more bold sense of depth.
3-3. Get a rose or bronze-colored blush if you’re olive-skinned.
Rose provides just the right delicate, natural flush for olive skin. Bronze blush adds a little warmth while also brightening.
3-4. Opt for raisin, brick, or bright tangerine if you have a dark complexion.
Bold colors like raisin or brick highlight darker skin tones the best without looking too over-the-top. For a neutral look, try a bright tangerine blush.
3-5. Use a powder blush if you have normal to oily skin.
Powder blush is a good go-to because it works well on nearly all skin types, goes on silky, and leaves a matte finish. Also, powder blush is very likely to stay on and not need reapplication over longer periods of time.
3-6. Go with a cream blush if you have dry or aging skin.
Cream blush can hydrate your skin to keep it from looking too dry. It tends to look a little dewy when applied and feels very lightweight, which helps in providing a more authentic blush look.
Tips
Do not put on an excessive amount of the blush; like most things, blush is best in moderation.
Make sure blush and lipstick are similar in color value. That is, even if you are going light on the lips and heavy on the cheeks or vice versa, wear corals with corals, etc.
Start a little lighter. It’s easier to add more blush than remove too much.
Warnings
Don't rely on makeup to make you beautiful. Remember, real beauty comes from the heart and you are beautiful inside and out no matter what.

1,864 | How to Apply Blush and Bronzer Together | 1. Evening out Your Skin Tone
1-1. Apply a cold cloth to your face to lessen signs of skin irritation.
Cooling your face will help reduce any redness and blotchiness. Before applying makeup, put a cold cloth over your face. Let it sit for 10 minutes to soothe your skin.
Purchase a cooling mask from a beauty supply store to achieve the same effect.
1-2. Rub a layer of primer on your face.
A silicon-based primer will build a smooth surface to apply makeup over. Primer will also add moisture to your skin and ensure that your makeup lasts longer. Apply a dime-sized amount of primer to clean fingers and gently rub it over the entire surface of your face.
Give the primer 2-3 minutes to dry before applying makeup.
1-3. Apply foundation to your skin with a brush or sponge for total coverage.
The simplest way to get the look of even skin is to apply a foundation that closely matches your skin color. Apply a quarter-sized amount of foundation to your face with a makeup sponge or brush. Avoid using your fingers as foundation can look cakey if applied unevenly.
1-4. Use a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation to create a natural-looking base.
If you do not want to look overly made up, skip a full coverage foundation. Opt for a moisturizer with a tinted pigmented complex. This will deposit just enough color onto the surface of your skin to lightly even out your skin tone. Apply a quarter-sized amount of tinted moisturizer to your entire face with your fingers or a clean makeup sponge.
This will deposit just enough color onto the surface of your skin to lightly even out your skin tone.
1-5. Apply full-coverage concealer if you have dark circles and blemishes.
Covering uneven spots on your face will give you the look of smooth, even skin. Apply a full-coverage concealer that matches your skin color with the tip of your finger. Lightly dab 2-3 drops of concealer on dark under-eye circles and 1-2 drops on to avoid a caked-on look.
2. Putting on Bronzer
2-1. Choose a shade of bronzer that will suit your skin tone.
It is important to choose a bronzer that is not too dark or light to look natural on you. Depending on your skin color, choose a bronzer made specifically for light, medium, or dark skin tones. Go for a color that’s 1-2 shades darker than your skin tone, but no more.
As a general rule, lighter skin tones will require a soft, golden bronzer, while darker skin tones will look better with a dark bronze shade.
If you are unsure which color will best suit you, ask a makeup artist at a department store makeup counter for help.
2-2. Lightly apply bronzer to your brow line and jawline with a bronzer brush.
Purchase a large bronzer brush to evenly apply your bronzer. Use light, straight strokes to brush the bronzer across your forehead and on either side of your jaw. Apply multiple light layers instead of one thick layer to ensure that you do not over-apply the product.
2-3. Use circular motions to apply bronzer to your cheeks and chin.
Bronzer should be applied carefully to rounder parts of your face to avoid looking streaky. Hold the brush at a perpendicular angle to your face and trace small circles over the tops of your cheeks and over your chin. Apply the bronzer lightly and layer it until you achieve your desired look.
Apply your bronzer very lightly on your cheeks, since you’ll be following it with another color.
3. Adding the Blush
3-1. Choose a natural-looking pink blush color that suits you.
Pick a blush color that is dark or light enough to suit your natural skin color. Use a blush with a pink tone, as a brownish color will look odd against the bronzer.
If you are unsure what shade to choose, visit a makeup counter for expert advice.
3-2. Use a small brush to apply the blush.
Lightly dab a small blush brush onto the makeup to get it onto the bristles. Gently apply the color to your cheeks. Use small, circular motions to distribute the color carefully and evenly.
3-3. Apply blush to the apples of your cheeks.
For a natural look that will complement the bronzer you already applied, focus blush on the part of your cheeks that gets naturally flushed. To locate the apples of your cheeks, smile. The parts of your cheeks that protrude are the areas you should focus blush on.
Blush should not be applied past the laugh lines that separate each cheek from your nose and mouth.
When you’re pairing blush and bronzer, don’t apply blush back along the cheekbone or the hollow under the cheek.

1,865 | How to Apply Blush for Your Face Shape | 1. Determining Your Face Shape
1-1. Determine the widest part of your face.
Look at your face in the mirror. Scan your face to figure out what portion is the widest. This will give you insight into your face shape.
If your forehead, cheeks, and jaws are roughly equal in length, you may have a square, round, or oval face.
Your face may be heart-shaped if your forehead is widest.
Wide cheekbones may indicate a diamond-shaped face.
A wide jaw can indicate a triangular or pear-shaped face.
1-2. Look at the shape of your jaw.
After determining the widest part of your face, look at your jaw. How round your jaw is indicates your precise face shape.
Round and oval faces have very round jaws.
Square jaws are found on square or diamond-shaped faces.
A pointy jaw indicates you have a heart-shaped face.
1-3. Evaluate your face's length.
Think about how long your face is. Is it longer than it is wide? Draw an imaginary line below your eyes running from ear to ear. Then, draw an imaginary line from the top of your nose to your chin. Compare the lengths to get a sense of your face shape.
Round shaped faces are generally equally as long as they are wide.
If your face is longer than it is wide, you may fall into any categories other than a round-shaped face. Most faces are slightly longer than they are wide.
1-4. Put it all together.
Think about the various factors affecting face shape. Which category does your face most often fall under? This should give you a sense of your personal face shape.
For example, the widest part of your face is your forehead. You have a pointier jaw and your face is a little longer than it is wide.
Based on this information, you most closely fall into the heart-shaped category. Apply blush according to guidelines for a heart-shaped face.
2. Applying Your Blush
2-1. Use a c-shape for a heart-shaped face.
With heart-shaped faces, apply blush from the top of the temple down your cheekbone. Make a c-shape that follows the natural line of your cheekbone. You should have more blush near your cheekbone and have it fade out as it makes its way up to the temple.
2-2. Focus on the apples for a square-shaped or long face.
Smiling can help you figure out where the apples of your cheeks fall. Focusing on the apples of your cheeks works for a square-shaped face. You should make small circles on the apples of each cheek. For a long face, make small circles on your apples, but then blend them out slightly towards your temples.
2-3. Use angular strokes to slim a round face.
If you have a round face, slight slimming is key. Apply blush at the apples of the cheeks. Then, draw an angle moving to the temples. Blend the line out as you move into your temples.
2-4. Apply blush on the top of your cheekbones for a diamond/oval face.
With diamond and oval-shaped faces, you want to create definition by drawing attention to the bottom half of your face. Run a line of blush along the top of your cheekbone. Blend the blush upward as you draw your line, blending it out near your ears.
3. Avoiding Common Mistakes
3-1. Avoid putting blush under your cheekbones.
Depending on your face shape, you may apply blush on or above your cheekbones. You should never apply blush below your cheekbones. You should draw contour lines rather than blush under your cheekbones.
3-2. Blend your blush adequately.
You want your blush to blend into your natural skin tone and any foundation you're wearing. You want your cheeks to look rosy and natural without harsh lines. After applying your blush, make sure to use a separate makeup brush to blend your blush out into your existing skin and makeup.
3-3. Do not blend towards the nose if you have a round face.
Always blend upward towards the temples if you have a round face. Do not blend your blush towards your nose. This can make your face look rounder rather than creating the slimming effect.

1,866 | How to Apply Body Spray | 1. Applying Body Spray for Men
1-1. Remove your shirt.
Body sprays for men usually double as deodorants. So it is more effective to use the spray on your body as opposed to your clothes.
1-2. Spray your upper body.
Hold the spray can six inches (152 mm) away from your body. Press the spray button and spray your armpits, chest and neck. Spray each body part for only two to three seconds.
For more coverage, hold the spray can farther away from your body, like seven to nine inches (178 to 229 mm).
1-3. Apply the spray once per day.
In general, body sprays have a very strong scent. By applying the spray only once per day, you can avoid overloading your senses, and the senses of the people around you. You also want to avoid over spraying since there may be negative health effects associated with using body sprays excessively.
The only exception is if you plan to exercise or engage in sports or another physical activity that will cause you to perspire. If this is you, then you may re-apply the body spray after the physical activity.
2. Applying Body Spray for Women
2-1. Spray your pulse points.
Hold the body spray four to five inches (102 to 127 mm) from your pulse points. Spray each pulse point with one spray. Try to avoid rubbing in the spray. Instead, let the body spray soak in and dry on your skin.
Your pulse points include your wrists, the insides of your elbows, the front of your neck, the back of your knees and between your breasts.
Your body emits pheromones from pulse points, and these points are excellent places to apply your body spray to ensure the longevity of the scent.
2-2. Spritz your clothing.
Do this once you have spritzed your pulse points. However, hold the spray can seven to nine inches (178 to 229 mm) from your body/clothes. Spritz your top and pants once or twice.
Alternatively, you can spritz the air in front of you and walk through the mist to scent your clothes.
2-3. Spray your hair.
Try to avoid spraying your hair directly. Instead, spritz the air above you once or twice with the spray. Quickly stand underneath the mist to lightly scent your hair.
3. Using Body Spray
3-1. Choose a fragrance you like.
Choose a scent that matches your personal taste and style. Start by sampling popular fragrances to see which scents appeal to your taste. Then explore other fragrances that are made with similar scents.
If you are a girl, then you may prefer sweet, floral scents or musky scents.
If you are a guy, then you may prefer woodsy or spicy scents.
3-2. Apply the body spray after you shower.
Applying body spray on a clean body will help the scent stick to your body better and last longer. After you shower, lightly towel off. Spritz your damp body with the body spray.
3-3. Layer fragrances.
Layering fragrances will also help your body spray last longer. While you are showering, use a body gel that has similar scents to the ones in your body spray. After your shower, apply a lotion with similar scents to your damp body. Once the lotion has dried, spritz your body with the body spray.
For example, if your body spray contains vanilla, lavender and mint notes, then choose a body wash and lotion that contains lavender, vanilla or mint to layer with.
If you cannot find a complementary lotion or body wash, then use an unscented lotion or soap.
Some body sprays come with complementary lotions and body washes.

1,867 | How to Apply Bondo | 1. Mixing and Applying Bondo
1-1. Find a flat surface and a disposable tool for mixing.
Disposable options such as a sheet of cardboard make for an easier clean-up, but you can also purchase reusable plastic sheets. For a mixing tool, use a clean plastic spreader or something disposable, like a popsicle stick.
It’s best not to use screwdrivers or dirty tools for mixing because they are much harder to clean and could add grease or oil into the mixture.
1-2. Mix only as much Bondo and hardener as you can use in 10 minutes.
Bondo hardens quickly, so it’s important to mix it in small, usable amounts. Start with a golf-ball sized amount of filler and mix up more as needed. The ratio is also crucial—too much hardener will cause the mixture to gel too quickly, and too little may keep the mixture from hardening at all.
Finding the right ratio takes experience, but you can get close by estimating that each inch of raw filler diameter requires an inch-length of hardener.
For example, if you use an amount of Bondo with a 3 inches (7.6 cm) diameter, you would mix it with a 3 inches (7.6 cm) line of hardener.
If you’re struggling with finding the right ratio, look at the product instructions or ask a professional for assistance.
1-3. Fold together the Bondo and hardener.
Use the spreader or popsicle stick to scrape and press the two ingredients together until they’re combined and you can’t see any streaks. This will help prevent air bubbles from forming.
Make sure to apply the mixture within 3 minutes of combining. If you wait longer, the mixture will turn into a gel and won’t stick to anything.
1-4. Use a plastic or metal spreader to apply thin coats of filler.
Load up your spreader with some Bondo mixture and scrape an ⁄8 inch (0.32 cm) layer over the damaged area. Press down with the spreader to push the filler into the metal. Keep applying thin coats until all the dings are filled, up to a total thickness of ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm).
Never use Bondo for any imperfections deeper than ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm). Using the product on a ding deeper than ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) will likely not adhere or hold up well, and the Bondo will eventually shrink and either crack or fall off.
If you applied masking tape beforehand, let the filler sit for several minutes before gently removing the tape.
1-5. Wait 3-10 minutes for the Bondo to fully cure.
Since you’ll be sanding and applying pressure after it dries, make sure the filler has time to fully harden and cure.
2. Sanding and Finishing
2-1. Level the filler with 36-grit sandpaper.
Start sanding with a heavier grit to even out the dried filler quickly. Sand in alternating directions until the filler-covered section is level and smooth.
To avoid scratching the surrounding area, keep the sandpaper on the filler only and don’t let it slide onto the painted surface.
Sanding in straight lines creates waves in the filler, so always sand in a criss-cross pattern.
2-2. Remove any scratches with 80-grit sandpaper.
The finer 80-grit will help smooth out any scuffing from the 36-grit sandpaper. You can start to feather out the edges of the filler and sand out onto the paint for a seamless effect. Keep sanding until all of the 36-grit scratches are sanded out.
This can be a long and tedious process, but all of your sanding will soon pay off with a smooth, even application!
2-3. Prime and paint the area to blend it in with the rest of the car.
Once the filler is sanded down smooth, you can paint over it. Let the paint cure, and the body of your car will look as good as new.
Warnings
Protect yourself from inhaling dust or harmful fumes by using protective gear (such as a mask, respirator, and gloves) and working in a well-ventilated area.

1,868 | How to Apply Bronzer | 1. Creating an Even Base
1-1. Wash your face
Get a cleanser that works best for your skin type, create a lather with warm water, and massage it into your face by using your fingertips in a circular motion. Rinse your face off and then pat it dry with a clean washcloth.
Use a cream-based cleanser if you have dry skin.
Use an oil-based pH-balanced gentle cleanser if you have normal skin.
Use a foaming cleanser if you have oily skin.
1-2. Apply a good moisturizer with sunscreen.
After you’ve washed your face, it’s time to hydrate and protect your skin. Massage in a quality moisturizer with an SPF and apply eye cream.
To make sure your face is being protected by the sun, get a moisturizer that protects against UVA rays.
1-3. Apply concealer
It’s crucial that you create an even base before applying your bronzer, and that starts with concealer. Choose a concealer that blends in well with your complexion. Apply it above foundation to the areas that need extra coverage.
1-4. Create an even canvas with liquid foundation.
Once you’ve put on concealer, apply an even coat of liquid foundation over the entirety of your face. This will smooth out your complexion and create a blank canvas for your contouring. You can put your foundation on with a makeup sponge, a makeup brush, or by using your fingertips.
Be sure to blend the foundation down your neck slightly for a more natural look.
If you want a more subtle, natural, or softer look, consider a tinted moisturizer. Apply it the same way as a liquid foundation.
If you decide to use blush, don’t apply it until after you apply your bronzer.
2. Putting on Your Bronzer
2-1. Select a bronzer 1 or 2 shades darker than your natural skin tone.
Since the purpose of a bronzer is to darken the complexion subtly, the one you choose will depend on the color of your skin. Generally, it should only be 1 or 2 shades darker than your natural skin tone. Test a little on your wrist to make sure it "warms" your skin tone without making it look fake.
If you have fair skin, look for a honey-colored bronzer.
For a medium complexion, choose a rose-bronze or gold flecked bronzer.
Dark skin is best enhanced with a tawny or amber bronzer.
2-2. Use a wide, fluffy powder brush with a rounded top.
If your brush is too small or stiff, it may cause blotches and streaks to form when you apply the bronzer. There are specialized bronzer brushes available on the market, although any large blush or foundation brush will work equally as well.
For a softer, more natural look, use a fan brush instead.
2-3. Swirl the brush evenly in the bronzer.
It is best to apply your bronzer in light, even coats to build up color rather than adding a single dark layer at once. Therefore, just lightly coat the end of your brush in the powder and tap off the excess onto the lid of the container.
2-4. Apply the bronzer to your forehead.
Your bronzer should be applied in the shape of a “3” from the top to the bottom of your face on both sides, starting with your forehead. Lightly sweep the brush along the outer sides of your upper forehead and along your hairline.
2-5. Apply the bronzer to your cheekbones.
Next, make a fish face and apply your bronzer to your cheekbones. You can also do this by smiling, starting at the apples of your cheeks, and sweeping slightly up toward your hairline.
2-6. Apply the bronzer to your jawline.
Finally, complete the “3” shape by sweeping your bronzer along your jawline. This will add definition to your face.
2-7. Brush lightly over your chin, nose and neck.
As you’re applying bronzer, you’ll want to focus on covering the areas of your face that sunlight tends to hit. Do a final dusting of your bronzer on the higher points of your face, such as the bridge of your nose and the tip of your chin. Complete the natural glow by applying bronzer to your neck so that it matches the coloring of your face.
Don't add too much bronzer, however, as this may create a heavy look.
3. Finishing the Look
3-1. Use a new brush to blend the bronzer.
Take out another fluffy, clean brush and softly blend everything in so there aren’t any unnatural lines or blotches. It’s especially important that you blend the neck area. To blend most effectively, start in the center and work the brush outward in small, circular motions.
3-2. Eliminate any harsh lines with a translucent powder.
If you’ve blended and your complexion still doesn’t look smooth and subtle in color transition, swirl your blending brush in a translucent powder, tap off the excess, and blend again.
3-3. Add blush
You can use a blush stick, liquid blush, or a powder. Apply the blush in the center of the apples of your cheeks. Blend it out towards the edges of your face with a rounded brush.
3-4. Lock in the look with a setting spray.
After you’re done, make sure to spray your entire face with a makeup setting spray to keep your face looking radiant all day.
Tips
Make sure you make a 3 shape when using bronzer. Start from your forehead and then to your cheekbones, and lastly under your jawline.
Don't get too much product on your brush at a time; it’s easier to add a little more than take some off.
When using bronzer and/or blush, use a brush with a rounded surface such as a kabuki brush or a powder brush.
Warnings
The most common mistake made with bronzers is choosing one that looks too orange on the skin, which results in an artificial-looking glow.
Don't blow on the brush to remove excess bronzer; if a little moisture reaches the brush, it can cause streaks.

1,869 | How to Apply Bronzer on Light Skin | 1. Selecting the Right Bronzer
1-1. Choose a bronzer 1 to 2 shades darker than your skin tone.
For light skin, bronzers that are softer toned, like gold or pink, are most flattering. Avoid bronzers with red or orange tones to prevent looking sunburned rather than sun-kissed.
1-2. Pick a bronzer with either a matte or shimmer finish.
Choose matte bronzers if you would like extra definition, or choose shimmer if you want to add a little more color to your face. Matte finish bronzers do not add any extra shine, while the shimmer bronzers have a sparkle effect. Both types are recommended for light skin.
1-3. Decide between pressed, loose powdered, cream, or liquid bronzer.
All types work well for light skin, and this choice is more personal preference. Try getting a palette with a few light and dark shades so you can blend and experiment with what works for your skin tone.
Pressed and mineral bronzers will be applied with a medium or large brush. Fan brushes or medium-sized round makeup brushes with soft bristles are recommended to apply the bronzer in the lightest, natural way.
Cream and liquid bronzers will be applied with a makeup sponge or your fingers. Make sure to be light-handed to avoid creating a “muddy” appearance.
Cream-based bronzers work best for those with drier skin.
2. Applying Your Bronzer
2-1. Create a base layer with a tinted moisturizer or liquid foundation.
Use a shade that most closely matches your skin tone. Liquid moisturizer is a lighter, more natural option, though liquid foundation will provide better coverage. Apply a light, even layer over your entire face. This will even out your skin tone, reduce any redness, and hide other imperfections.
Make sure to go with a foundation color that matches your skin tone as closely as possible.
2-2. Set makeup with loose powder.
Select a shade most similar to your own skin color, and dust powder foundation over your face. Blend the powder into your base layer. The powder creases a smooth, even surface, helpful before applying the bronzer.
2-3. Dab a little bit of bronzer onto your brush or sponge.
A little bit of bronzer goes a long way, especially on lighter skin. Lightly dab your brush or sponge once or twice into the bronzer. Then, tap or blow off the excess.
With light skin, you want to be precise and conservative when applying your bronzer because contrast between the color of the bronzer and your skin tone make it easier to see mistakes.
2-4. Apply matte bronzer in a “3” shape.
Matte bronzers allow you to create definition through contouring. If using a matte bronzer, sweep it onto your skin in a “3” shape–at the corners of your forehead above your eyebrows, just above your cheekbones, and along your jawline.
2-5. Apply shimmery bronzer to the high points on your face.
Shimmery bronzers work a little bit like highlighters, and so should be applied to areas where the light naturally hits. Focus your application at your temples, along your cheekbones, and down the bridge of your nose to get a soft, natural glow. Use a light, sweeping arc motion to apply the bronzer to your skin in these areas.
Avoid applying shimmery bronzer to your nose if you have oily skin or a prominent nose.
2-6. Build up bronzer with light and gradual layers.
Use your brush and gently dust bronzer where the sun would kiss your face. With a light hand, layer the bronzer as lightly as possible to build up the color in sheer layers. If using cream or liquid bronzer, use a small amount and rub in a circular motion. Dust some loose powder over top to create a more natural look.
Don’t apply the bronzer all over your face.
2-7. Blend your bronzer thoroughly.
Use a makeup brush, sponge, or your fingers to blend the layers of bronzer with your base layer of makeup. You want to blend until it looks subtle and soft. Use long, soft strokes to blend effectively.
2-8. Inspect the look of your bronzer.
Is your bronzer well blended? Does it look like you were just at the beach, kissed by the sun? Or does your face look splotchy? Do you need to apply any more bronzer in certain spots? If you see any excess bronzer, blot it out with a tissue or cover it up with a dusting of powder.
If you are wearing a low-cut shirt, dust a little bronzer to your chest along your collarbones.

Fan brushes or medium-sized round makeup brushes with soft bristles are recommended to apply the bronzer in the lightest, natural way.\\nCream and liquid bronzers will be applied with a makeup sponge or your fingers. Make sure to be light-handed to avoid creating a “muddy” appearance.\\nCream-based bronzers work best for those with drier skin.\\n2. Applying Your Bronzer\\n2-1. Create a base layer with a tinted moisturizer or liquid foundation.\\nUse a shade that most closely matches your skin tone. Liquid moisturizer is a lighter, more natural option, though liquid foundation will provide better coverage. Apply a light, even layer over your entire face. This will even out your skin tone, reduce any redness, and hide other imperfections.\\nMake sure to go with a foundation color that matches your skin tone as closely as possible.\\n2-2. Set makeup with loose powder.\\nSelect a shade most similar to your own skin color, and dust powder foundation over your face. Blend the powder into your base layer. The powder creases a smooth, even surface, helpful before applying the bronzer.\\n2-3. Dab a little bit of bronzer onto your brush or sponge.\\nA little bit of bronzer goes a long way, especially on lighter skin. Lightly dab your brush or sponge once or twice into the bronzer. Then, tap or blow off the excess.\\nWith light skin, you want to be precise and conservative when applying your bronzer because contrast between the color of the bronzer and your skin tone make it easier to see mistakes.\\n2-4. Apply matte bronzer in a “3” shape.\\nMatte bronzers allow you to create definition through contouring. If using a matte bronzer, sweep it onto your skin in a “3” shape–at the corners of your forehead above your eyebrows, just above your cheekbones, and along your jawline.\\n2-5. Apply shimmery bronzer to the high points on your face.\\nShimmery bronzers work a little bit like highlighters, and so should be applied to areas where the light naturally hits. Focus your application at your temples, along your cheekbones, and down the bridge of your nose to get a soft, natural glow. Use a light, sweeping arc motion to apply the bronzer to your skin in these areas.\\nAvoid applying shimmery bronzer to your nose if you have oily skin or a prominent nose.\\n2-6. Build up bronzer with light and gradual layers.\\nUse your brush and gently dust bronzer where the sun would kiss your face. With a light hand, layer the bronzer as lightly as possible to build up the color in sheer layers. If using cream or liquid bronzer, use a small amount and rub in a circular motion. Dust some loose powder over top to create a more natural look.\\nDon’t apply the bronzer all over your face.\\n2-7. Blend your bronzer thoroughly.\\nUse a makeup brush, sponge, or your fingers to blend the layers of bronzer with your base layer of makeup. You want to blend until it looks subtle and soft. Use long, soft strokes to blend effectively.\\n2-8. Inspect the look of your bronzer.\\nIs your bronzer well blended? Does it look like you were just at the beach, kissed by the sun? Or does your face look splotchy? Do you need to apply any more bronzer in certain spots? If you see any excess bronzer, blot it out with a tissue or cover it up with a dusting of powder.\\nIf you are wearing a low-cut shirt, dust a little bronzer to your chest along your collarbones.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Bronzer helps achieve a sun-kissed, golden glow without relying on the sun or tanning beds.

1,870 | How to Apply Bronzing Lotion | 1. Preparing for Application
1-1. Choose a bronzing lotion.
There are many different bronzing lotions to choose from. Choosing a bronzing lotion based on your skin type, color, and you desired tan will help you achieve the results you are looking for. Some bronzing lotions allow you get instant results while others take up to a week. Some are longer lasting while other are more temporary. Consult online blogs and websites devoted to bronzing lotion and self-tanners to decide which product is best for you.
If your skin is very light or pale, consider using a gradual bronzing lotion. Gradual bronzing lotions contain amino-acids that produce brown pigments in your skin. The color of gradual bronzing lotions usually peaks around 5 to 7 days after application.
Some bronzing lotions are white and opaque in color, which often means they are more difficult to apply. If you don’t have much experience applying bronzing lotion, choose a bronzing lotion that is tinted so that you can apply it evenly.
1-2. Remove coarse or thick hair from places you wish to tan.
Thick and coarse hair can get in the way of bronzing lotion and cause a patchy and uneven application. Wax or shave all areas you plan to apply bronzing lotion to.
You will most likely not need to shave if you have very fine hair.
1-3. Exfoliate your skin.
Bronzing lotions cling to dry and dead skin which can often result in an inconsistent and patchy application. Be sure to exfoliate thoroughly before applying your bronzing lotion for an even and smooth application.
Use oil-free exfoliants. Most oils, even natural ones, will prevent the bronzing lotion from being absorbed.
2. Applying Bronzing Lotion
2-1. Give yourself plenty of time.
Applying bronzing lotion in large quantities will take a long time, especially if you have limited experience. Give yourself a few hours in the evening to prepare and apply your bronzing lotion.
2-2. Wear gloves.
Wearing gloves will keep your palms from getting tinted and absorbing the color that is meant for your body. Try using a cheap pair of latex gloves while you are applying your bronzing lotion.
If you are allergic to latex seek out a non-fibrous alternative online or at a beauty supply shop.
2-3. Apply the bronzing lotion to your body.
Squeeze out a small portion of bronzing lotion into your palm and start with one body part at a time. Use broad, circular strokes to apply the bronzing lotion evenly. Be careful to avoid naturally lighter spots on your body, like under your arms. Don’t panic if you get some bronzing lotion on these spots, instead, simply wipe it off with a moist cloth.
Have a friend help you apply bronzing lotion to your back, or use a strap or band for accuracy.
Follow the instructions on the bronzing lotion bottle to find out how long you should rub in and apply your bronzing lotion.
Try to dilute the bronzing lotion with moisturizer when applying to drier areas, like knees and elbows, as drier areas will absorb more of the lotion and appear darker than the rest of your body.
2-4. Apply sparingly to your neck and face.
Start with a small pea sized amount of bronzing lotion and apply it to your face in a broad, circular motion. Apply the bronzing lotion up to your hairline. If you have not achieved your desired color keep applying the bronzing lotion to your face in small quantities each day until you achieve your results.
Be careful if you have light, blonde, or color treated hair and bronzing lotion can leave traces in your hair color.
If you have darker spots on your face from previous applications apply a small amount of clear, wax-based lip liner to the darker spots to deter absorption before applying bronzing lotion.
2-5. Wait at least 6 to 8 hours before showering.
If you applied your bronzing lotion in the evening, go to bed and take a shower first thing in the morning. Your body temperature heats while you sleep, which increases your skin’s absorbency. Avoid contact with water and try to avoid any activity that might make you sweat.
Apply powder to your body to avoid sticking to your clothes or bed sheets.
3. Finishing Your Application
3-1. Take a shower.
Most bronzing lotions and water don’t mix. Apply a light body oil a few minutes before showering to reduce the amount of bronzing lotion lost when you need to clean. Try using a body cleanser that says it is pH balanced and avoid harsh soaps that remove moisture and color from your skin.
Try not to use scrubs or rough brushes as they remove some dead and dry skin as well as your new tan.
3-2. Touch up blotches and spots.
If you notice that you missed a few spots, put a fresh pair of gloves on and apply a small amount of lotion in your palm. Apply the lotion in the same way as before. Be sure to apply the bronzing lotion lightly the second time and blend it around the edges so that appears even.
Wipe off any excess bronzing lotion with a moist cloth.
3-3. Use moisturizer.
Dead skin will begin to peel and flake naturally as your skin begins to dry. The quicker your skin dries and flakes the quicker your tan will fade. Regularly apply a skin moisturizer in order to prolong your new sunless tan.
Tips
Follow bronzing lotion tips for a natural, even look. If you do not, you risk ending up with blotchy, streaked or fake-looking skin.
Keep in mind that bronzing lotions can stain your clothing. Be sure to protect it during application.
Warnings
Never apply bronzing lotion to dry, cracked skin. It will look unnatural and uneven in color, and be darker in areas where your skin needs to be exfoliated.

1,871 | How to Apply Brow Gel | 1. Applying Clear Brow Gel
1-1. Start with your usual skincare regime.
Clean your face using your usual facial cleanser, and follow up with some toner and moisturizer. If you plan on wearing any foundation, put it on now. You can do your lips and blush as well, but hold off on the eyeshadow for right now.
1-2. Groom your eyebrows.
Start by tweezing out any stray or unruly hairs. Next, take out a clean spoolie, and comb the hair on your eyebrows, following the direction that they are naturally growing in. For most people, this would be straight up on the inner corners, outwards along the arch, and down towards the tail end.
If you want your eyebrows to appear higher, brush them upward first.
If you want your eyebrows to look a bit more tamed, brush them up, then down towards the edges.
1-3. Apply eyebrow pencil or powder, if needed, then comb them back into shape with a spoolie.
Filling in your brows is completely optional. If you already have thick, full brows, you probably don't have to do this. Start with a medium taupe shade; it works well with dark and light-colored eyebrows without appearing too pale or too dark. If your eyebrows are red, consider a light, reddish brown pencil or powder instead.
Fill in your brows using short, hair-like strokes instead of simply coloring them in. This helps mimic the texture of brow hair and provides better visual density.
Use a lighter shade if you have very dark eyebrows. Never use straight black. Instead, opt for a very dark brown or charcoal. It will look softer, more natural, and less harsh.
Vary the shades on your brows. You can stick with the same color, but use a lighter hand towards the inner part, and concentrate the product towards the ends.
1-4. Apply clear brow gel following the direction your eyebrow hairs are growing in.
You can use the spoolie that came with your tube of clear brow gel, or you can use a new spoolie. Following the same technique as before, comb the spoolie upwards at the inner part of your eyebrows, straight towards the arch, and back down towards the tail.
If you applied eyebrow pencil or powder, it might be a good idea to dip your brush in brush cleaner and wipe it off with a clean towel before each application. This way, you won't risk tinting the clear gel with any residual eyebrow pencil or powder.
1-5. Finish off with the rest of your makeup.
Now that you have your eyebrows done, you can finish putting on the rest of your makeup, such as your eyeshadow and eyeliner. Of course, you can always skip those if you want something more natural.
2. Applying Tinted Brow Gel
2-1. Start with your usual skincare regime.
Clean your face using your usual facial cleanser, and follow up with some toner and moisturizer. If you plan on wearing any foundation, put it on now. You can do your lips and blush as well, but hold off on the eyeshadow for right now.
2-2. Groom your eyebrows to give them definition.
Tweeze out any stray or unruly hairs. Next, use a clean spoolie to comb the hair on your eyebrows upwards and out.
2-3. Apply a small drop of brow gel to the back of your hand.
If your tinted brow gel came with a spoolie applicator, choose a thin, angled brush, and run it along the spoolie instead. You will be using the thin brush to apply the brow gel along the bottom edge of your brows first.
2-4. Outline the bottom edge of your eyebrow.
Get out a thin, angled brush and pick up some of the brow gel. Outline the bottom of your eyebrow using short, light strokes. Stay within your eyebrow, and don't let the brow gel extend past the hairs. Outline from the inner corner of your eyebrow all the way to the outer corner.
Use a brush with stiffer bristles, like the kind you'd use to apply lipstick. Avoid brushes with soft bristles, like an eyeshadow blending brush.
Avoid applying too much. Remember that less is more; you can always apply more layers later.
2-5. Blend the tinted brow gel upwards.
Gently wipe off any excess brow gel from your brush. Next, use the brush and light, feathery strokes to blend the brow gel upwards and into the body of your eyebrow.
2-6. Fill in your eyebrow.
Use the flat side of and angled brush and long strokes to fill in the arch and tail end. Use a short, stubby brush, and quick, upward strokes to fill in the inner part. Make the arch and tail of your brow darker and more defined. Make the inner part of your brow softer and lighter. This will look more natural.
If your brow gel came with an applicator, you can comb the applicator through your eyebrows instead. Be sure to follow the direction that the hairs are growing in, however.
2-7. Outline the upper edge of your eyebrow, but only the outer part.
Use your angled brush to pick up more eyebrow gel. Then, starting at your arch, outline the upper edge of your eyebrow. Don't outline right above the inner corner of your eyebrow; this will give you a softer, more natural look.
Once you're finished applying the gel, use your finger to blend and press it a little into your skin. It'll look more natural and polished.
2-8. Use a clean spoolie to comb your brow.
Use the same techniques that you did at the beginning of the method: upwards towards the inner part of your eyebrow, and outwards and down towards the end of your eyebrow.
2-9. Clean it up with some liquid concealer.
Choose a concealer that either matches your skin tone or is one shade lighter. Using a thin brush, apply the concealer along the bottom edge of your eyebrow. Apply it just below the hairs so that it doesn't accidentally smudge the brow gel.
If your concealer came with an applicator tip, you can use that instead.
You don't have to use the concealer on a daily basis; it's great for whenever you want something more dramatic.
2-10. Blend the concealer downward.
Using short, light strokes, blend the concealer down towards the crease of your eyelid. You can do this using your finger or a foam eyeshadow brush.
Soften the concealer up with a Q-tip.
2-11. Finish off with the rest of your makeup.
Now that you have the hardest part of your makeup done, you can do the rest, including your eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, and anything else you wish to put on.
Tips
Thick, full eyebrows make you look younger and more youthful.[15]

Research source
Ensure your eyebrows have the right shape. They should be thicker towards the inner part, and thinner towards the end. The arch should be aligned with the outer edge of your pupil.[16]

This way, you won't risk tinting the clear gel with any residual eyebrow pencil or powder.\\n1-5. Finish off with the rest of your makeup.\\nNow that you have your eyebrows done, you can finish putting on the rest of your makeup, such as your eyeshadow and eyeliner. Of course, you can always skip those if you want something more natural.\\n2. Applying Tinted Brow Gel\\n2-1.

Next, use a clean spoolie to comb the hair on your eyebrows upwards and out.\\n2-3. Apply a small drop of brow gel to the back of your hand.\\nIf your tinted brow gel came with a spoolie applicator, choose a thin, angled brush, and run it along the spoolie instead. You will be using the thin brush to apply the brow gel along the bottom edge of your brows first.\\n2-4. Outline the bottom edge of your eyebrow.\\nGet out a thin, angled brush and pick up some of the brow gel. Outline the bottom of your eyebrow using short, light strokes. Stay within your eyebrow, and don't let the brow gel extend past the hairs. Outline from the inner corner of your eyebrow all the way to the outer corner.\\nUse a brush with stiffer bristles, like the kind you'd use to apply lipstick. Avoid brushes with soft bristles, like an eyeshadow blending brush.\\nAvoid applying too much. Remember that less is more; you can always apply more layers later.\\n2-5. Blend the tinted brow gel upwards.\\nGently wipe off any excess brow gel from your brush. Next, use the brush and light, feathery strokes to blend the brow gel upwards and into the body of your eyebrow.\\n2-6. Fill in your eyebrow.\\nUse the flat side of and angled brush and long strokes to fill in the arch and tail end. Use a short, stubby brush, and quick, upward strokes to fill in the inner part. Make the arch and tail of your brow darker and more defined. Make the inner part of your brow softer and lighter. This will look more natural.\\nIf your brow gel came with an applicator, you can comb the applicator through your eyebrows instead. Be sure to follow the direction that the hairs are growing in, however.\\n2-7. Outline the upper edge of your eyebrow, but only the outer part.\\nUse your angled brush to pick up more eyebrow gel. Then, starting at your arch, outline the upper edge of your eyebrow. Don't outline right above the inner corner of your eyebrow; this will give you a softer, more natural look.\\nOnce you're finished applying the gel, use your finger to blend and press it a little into your skin. It'll look more natural and polished.\\n2-8. Use a clean spoolie to comb your brow.\\nUse the same techniques that you did at the beginning of the method: upwards towards the inner part of your eyebrow, and outwards and down towards the end of your eyebrow.\\n2-9. Clean it up with some liquid concealer.\\nChoose a concealer that either matches your skin tone or is one shade lighter. Using a thin brush, apply the concealer along the bottom edge of your eyebrow. Apply it just below the hairs so that it doesn't accidentally smudge the brow gel.\\nIf your concealer came with an applicator tip, you can use that instead.\\nYou don't have to use the concealer on a daily basis; it's great for whenever you want something more dramatic.\\n2-10. Blend the concealer downward.\\nUsing short, light strokes, blend the concealer down towards the crease of your eyelid. You can do this using your finger or a foam eyeshadow brush.\\nSoften the concealer up with a Q-tip.\\n2-11.

1,872 | How to Apply Brow Mascara | 1. Try regular mascara in a pinch for full, dark brows.
Use regular mascara if you don’t want to buy a special brow product.
There are lots of mascaras on the market designed specifically for eyebrows, but don’t let the marketing hype fool you! If you don’t want to shell out for yet another makeup product, follow the lead of many pro makeup artists and just swipe on your regular eyelash booster.
Mascara will make your brows look darker and fuller, and will also make the hairs appear a little longer, just like with your eyelashes.
If you’re worried about using the same mascara wand on your brows and lashes, clean the wand between uses. Soak it in warm water and wipe off the softened makeup, then let the spoolie soak again for a minute in a makeup brush cleanser or a bit of rubbing alcohol. Rinse it and pat it dry with a paper towel.
2. Opt for a clear eyebrow mascara for control without color.
Try this if you're going for a natural look.
Clear brow mascara is great if you like the look of natural brows since it gives you control and shine without adding any extra color. Look closely at the packaging so you know whether your product is tinted or not. Check for products labeled “clear” or “colorless.”
Many of these mascaras also condition your brows to help keep the hair shiny and healthy.
3. Use tinted eyebrow mascara to define and tame brows.
Pick a shade close to your natural brow color for a subtle look.
Most products that are sold as “eyebrow mascaras” contain waxes to help groom and control your eyebrows as well as darken them. They come in a variety of colors, so look for one that’s close to the natural shade of your eyebrows.
Darkening up your brows will give you a fiercer, more made-up appearance. Grab a mascara in dark brown or even black to really make your brows stand out. This is a good option for an evening out or a photo shoot.
4. Wipe the excess mascara off the wand first.
This helps you avoid the dreaded clumps.
Don’t just grab your spoolie and go. Before you start, carefully scrape the excess mascara off the wand on the edge of your mascara tube.
You can also wipe off the excess by lightly brushing the wand over a tissue before you use it.
5. Swipe the wand over each brow once for a natural look.
Move in the direction of the hair growth for even coverage.
Don’t worry about grooming your brows for now. Just follow the natural direction of each hair as you swipe on the mascara. This will help ensure that each hair is fully coated.
If you’re using a mascara that matches your natural brow color, don’t be afraid to push down and apply a little pressure. It’s okay if a little of it gets on your skin, as long as you stay within the natural borders of your eyebrows.
If you’re using a darker mascara, be a little more cautious. Take it slow and make sure you’re just coating the hairs without getting any mascara on your skin.
6. Brush in the opposite direction for extra color and volume.
Try this if you’re not satisfied with your coverage after one coat.
Take your spoolie and brush your eyebrows back the other way so that you coat the other side of each hair. For an even fuller, bulkier effect, wait for your first coat to set a little bit before you go in with a second coat.
If you’re using a very dark mascara, experiment with skipping the first coat and just doing one coat against the grain. This will help prevent your brows from looking too overdone.
To get a fluffy, tousled boy-brow look, just let the mascara set after this. You’re good to go!
7. Comb the hair with a clean spoolie after the mascara dries.
This tidies up your brows and removes any mascara clumps.
It also separates the hairs for a more well-groomed appearance. Let your mascara set for a minute, or until it feels dry. Then, grab a clean spoolie brush and gently comb it through your eyebrows in the direction of the hair growth.
Brush the hair up instead if you prefer a feathered look.
8. Fill in any gaps with a brow pencil or powder.
Check for any gaps or bare spaces in your brows.
If you spot any, use a brow pencil or eyeshadow to carefully fill in the spaces with natural looking, hair-thin strokes. Make sure you use a shade that matches your eyebrow color.
9. Rub away smudges gently with a dry spoolie.
Do this if you accidentally got mascara on the skin around your brows.
If the mascara is still wet, you’ll just smear it around more, so wait until it dries. Use a soft, clean spoolie brush to flake away the dried mascara, then brush it away with a powder brush.
If the spoolie trick isn’t working, dip a Q-tip or concealer brush in micellar water and use that to clean up the smudge.
If you prefer to just use finger, that’s totally okay as well.
10. Remove brow mascara before bed with makeup remover.
Sleeping in your makeup can damage your skin and hair.
Grab a makeup remover wipe or pour your favorite makeup remover onto a cotton pad. Gently swipe the pad or wipe over each eyebrow, taking care not to tug or rub hard on your hair and skin.
After you take off your makeup, wash your face with a mild facial cleanser to get rid of dirt, dead skin, and any remaining makeup fragments. Don’t forget to moisturize when you’re done!
You don’t have to use expensive makeup removers and cleansers to clean up your brows and eyelashes. Vaseline is a great, gentle makeup remover. Follow up by washing your eye area with a tear-free baby shampoo.

Squeeze a small amount of CC cream onto your fingers. If you want to use the product all over your face, put 1 dot on your forehead, 1 on your nose, 1 on your chin, and 1 on each cheek. Otherwise, put 1 dot in each area you want coverage, like the sides of your nose or near blemishes.
1-3. Blend the cream with a makeup brush or with clean fingers.
CC cream can be applied the way you like best, whether that’s with your fingers or with a brush. Pat the cream to spread it around your face, rather than rubbing your skin, which can irritate it. Alternatively, sweep a makeup brush across your skin to blend the cream outward.
If you use your fingers, be sure to thoroughly wash your hands first to remove dirt, germs, and oil.
Similarly, if you use a makeup brush, be sure to wash it weekly.
1-4. Add more cream to problem areas, if desired.
If you want to cover blemishes more thoroughly you can build up the CC cream. Simply add another small dot to problem areas, like dark circles under your eyes. Blend it in with the rest of the cream so you have a smooth and even complexion.
Adding another layer is more effective than simply applying a lot of product the first time around.
1-5. Buff your skin with a makeup brush.
Whether you are using CC cream alone or still plan to put on foundation, use a large, circular makeup brush to buff your skin and ensure all the product is evenly distributed. Make small circular motions with the brush, starting at your forehead and working down to your chin.
1-6. Apply foundation
CC creams smooth out your skin tone and cover blemishes. You can use CC cream by itself, or use it like a primer underneath your foundation. If you want to use the product like a primer, the next step is to use clean fingers or a makeup brush to apply a small amount of foundation to your skin. Blend it thoroughly, paying special attention to your hairline and jawline.
2. Choosing the Right Cream
2-1. Ensure the color matches your skin tone as closely as possible.
If possible, get samples of a few different brands of CC cream and test them near your jawline to find which kind matches your skin tone the best. The cream should easily blend in with your skin color, rather than looking chalky or like a mask.
2-2. Pick a CC cream formulated for your skin type.
One product does not fit all in this case. Read the packaging to determine which products are designed for your specific skin type.
If you have dry skin, for example, choose a CC cream made to moisturize skin, like one containing hyaluronic acid.
If you have oily skin, pick a CC cream that is oil-free has a matte finish.
If you have sensitive skin, select a CC cream that is fragrance-free and noncomedogenic.
2-3. Choose a cream that targets your problem areas.
Different CC creams tout various benefits, from sun protection and minimizing pores to clearing up acne and lightening age spots. Think about what you want to correct and pick a product designed to do so.
For instance, choose a product with stem cell technology to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Alternatively, opt for a cream packed with antioxidants to minimize breakouts.
2-4. Determine how much coverage you want.
Some CC creams work like a tinted moisturizer, while others have heavier pigmentation like foundation. If you want more coverage, choose a product with a thicker texture and opaque color. If you prefer a minimal amount of coverage, pick a cream with a light texture and translucent color.

1,874 | How to Apply Cake Mascara | 1. Sourcing Supplies
1-1. Decide if cake mascara is right for you.
Cake mascara is trending these days, and you may be curious it it will suit your lifestyle. In general, if you favor a more natural look (instead of seeking out mascara that looks like false lashes) and like avoiding infections, cake mascara ought to be something you consider.
Cake mascara has a long history. The fact that it's been around a long time gives it a cute vintage vibe. Because it’s dry and doesn’t sit in a tube, it doesn’t clump up, and you can take it on a plane as a carry-on.
Cake mascara is also more hygienic than cream mascara. The dark, wet interior of a mascara tube is a perfect place for bacteria to grow, but cake mascara is dry and doesn't encourage this.
There are some drawbacks, too. Cake mascara is difficult to source, has a slight learning curve, and is not as easy to throw in your purse as cream mascara. It’s up to you to decide if the pluses outweigh these minuses.
1-2. Use the internet to track down cake mascara.
Most mascara you find in drugstores and behind beauty counters is a cream formulation. If you’re having trouble locating cake mascara in a brick-and-mortar store, you may have to Google for shops that will ship the cosmetic to your area.
Sephora started carrying Besame Cosmetics cake mascara online in 2016. This brand is well-recognized, and though it’s pricy, it won’t expire like cream mascara will.
Many smaller indie brands offer cake mascaras, too. Try Clean Faced Cosmetics or Keeping It Natural.
1-3. Locate an appropriate brush.
Usually, your cake mascara will come with its own brush. It should look sort of like a toothbrush, with stiff bristles lined up along only one side. If your mascara didn’t come with a brush, you can use the brush side of an eyebrow/eyelash comb or a cleaned brush from an old tube of cream mascara.
Bend your brush at a 90 degree angle so that it's easier to apply your mascara.
1-4. Think outside the box.
You can use cake mascara for many other applications other than darkening and lengthening your lashes. It also works to fill in your brows (if you’re dark-haired), and as a stand in for gel liner. If you’d like to make your mascara multitask, you’ll have to have the proper tools.
If you want to use cake mascara to fill in your brows, a small angled brush is great. You can use it to fill in sparse spots, or create an entirely new shape. You can also use a spoolie to comb the powder through your brows, which will make them look more natural.
Small bent or angled brushes are best for eyeliner application.
2. Making Cake Mascara Look Good
2-1. Curl your lashes.
This step is optional, but it will open up your eyes and make the final look more striking. For best results, concentrate on the eyelashes in the outer corners of your eyes. Crimp the eyelash curler on the roots for a few seconds, then on the middle of the lash, then finally on the tips.
You can heat your eyelash curler by running hot water over it, or turning a blow dryer on it for a few seconds. To make sure it’s not too hot, press it on your wrist before putting it near your eyes.
Never curl your lashes after mascara, even cake mascara. The makeup can stick your lashes to the curler’s pads, which will rip them out.
2-2. Dampen the mascara.
For a dramatic look, place a drop of water onto the mascara cake. It should sink in, creating a dark paste. If you’d like a subtler look, wet the brush with a bit of water instead.
You can use a drop of contact solution as well. This is sanitary, since saline is sterile, and convenient.
2-3. Rub the brush in the cake.
A little mascara goes a long way. You want to pick up a bit of pigment on the brush’s bristles, but not too much. If you see clumps or excess makeup on the brush, tap off the extra on the side of the cake and start again.
Alternatively, you can rinse the brush. This will both remove excess product and make the brush pick up less product when you dip it again.
2-4. Stroke up and out.
Once you have the moistened cake mascara on the brush, the motion for applying it is similar to that of applying cream mascara. Open your eyes and raise the brush to them. Start at the roots of your upper lashes, then slowly pull the brush through them. Wiggle the brush a bit so it coats every lash. Dip the brush back into the cake, then repeat on the other side.
If you find yourself blinking reflexively, open your lips a bit when you put the brush near your eyes. This will inhibit your blinking reflex.
Don’t apply cake mascara to your lower lashes. It’s not waterproof, so it runs easily, and makeup that drags the eye down is often unflattering anyway.
2-5. Apply additional coats.
Cake mascara isn’t gooey like cream mascara, so it won’t clump up on your eyelashes. Therefore, you can keep layering it on to your heart’s content. Try one coat for a subtle look, two coats for a more striking daytime look, and three coats for evening. While you’re at it, go ahead and experiment with the mascara as a liner or filler.
You may also want to add more layers in the evening to take your day look to night. Unlike cream formulas, cake mascara won’t clump, even when you apply a wet layer over fully dried lashes.
2-6. Fix any mistakes.
Use an eyelash comb to ensure that each lash is coated and separated from its neighbor. If you’ve smudged a little extra mascara on your face, don’t worry. The easiest way to remove it is a cotton swab soaked in water, makeup remover, or micellar water. Just check yourself before you go out, and your cake mascara should contribute to a retro, fresh-faced look.
If you are wearing eye shadow, you may want to use a cotton swab dabbed in lotion so that you don't accidentally remove the rest of your makeup. Simply twirl the swab over the stray spot. Then you can touch up the shadow if it looks faded.
Tips
Move away from your nose.
Warnings
Cake mascara is not waterproof, so no crying.
Try to avoid poking yourself!
Never use a safety pin to separate your eyelashes; it isn’t safe at all.

1,875 | How to Apply Calamine Lotion | 1. Applying Calamine Lotion
1-1. Shake the bottle well.
The different parts of calamine lotion tend to separate when they sit for a while. Shaking the bottle well before applying it ensures that all the ingredients combine, which will make it work most effectively.
1-2. Apply the lotion to a cotton pad.
Place a cotton pad over the opening of the bottle and tilt the bottle towards the pad so that the liquid pours onto the cotton. Repeat this process until the pad is moist with lotion but not sopping wet.
1-3. Dab the wet cotton pad gently over the affected skin.
Make sure to cover the whole affected area at least once.
Avoid picking or pulling at the affected skin while applying as this will only irritate it further, making it take longer to heal.
If you’re applying the lotion as a primer for makeup, you can use a stippling brush to spread a thin layer over your face before applying makeup.
1-4. Avoid getting the lotion in your eyes, mouth, or nose.
Calamine lotion is for external use only. If you’re applying it to your face, stay away from the area around your eyes and lips. Do not apply it to any orifices or genitals. If you accidentally do so, wash out the affected area immediately with water.
1-5. Allow the lotion to dry.
Once you have covered the entire affected area of skin, let the lotion sit. Do not cover the skin you have applied the lotion to until it is completely dry, as fabric could absorb the lotion. It could take a few minutes for the lotion to dry completely. Check the area by lightly touching it with your fingertips. When it’s done setting, it should feel completely dry.
1-6. Reapply as often as needed.
Calamine lotion can be applied as often as you need relief. If you’re concerned you’re using it too much, check the directions on the bottle or ask your doctor.
If your skin irritation is bothering you a lot, you can even apply a second coat of lotion after the first one dries. To apply a second coat of lotion, simply repeat the same process.
2. Storing Calamine Lotion
2-1. Store calamine lotion in a dry place at room temperature.
The directions on the bottle will tell you how to store the lotion. Usually, you will want to keep it in a closed container and put it somewhere away from moisture and direct light. You will also want to keep it at room temperature and not let it freeze. In most cases, a medicine cabinet works well for storage.
2-2. Keep lotion out of reach of children.
Make sure kids will not be able to get to your calamine lotion without help or supervision. Children could accidentally use calamine lotion in a dangerous way, such as swallowing it or putting it in their eyes or nose. By keeping it where kids can’t get it, you should be able to avoid that problem.
2-3. Discard the lotion after its expiration date.
Your bottle of calamine lotion should have an expiration date printed on the label. Take note of it and safely discard the lotion when the date has passed. Calamine lotion does not become dangerous after the expiration date, but it will usually be less effective.
When discarding your lotion, make sure you’re not temporarily putting it somewhere a child could reach it.
3. Taking Precautions
3-1. Follow your doctor’s orders if you have a serious skin irritation.
If you have a serious skin irritation, you should see your doctor before trying to treat the irritation yourself. Your doctor may give you specific directions about how to use calamine lotion. You should follow these instructions.
3-2. Follow the directions on the bottle if you don’t have instructions from your doctor.
Your bottle of calamine lotion will have directions on the side that will tell you how best to use it. Consult these and follow them as closely as possible. You can veer from these directions, though, if your doctor gives you different instructions.
3-3. Stop using lotion immediately if you have a negative reaction.
Occasionally, calamine lotion can cause further skin irritation. Do not continue to use it if it irritates your skin in any way. Contact your doctor if it causes painful or persistent irritation.
3-4. Seek medical attention if your condition does not improve in 7 days.
Calamine lotion will not always completely relieve skin irritations. If it has not helped improve your condition after a week, consult a doctor to learn about different treatment options.

1,876 | How to Apply Car Polish | 1. Steps
1-1. Decide whether you want to use an orbital buffer or hand-polish using a soft cloth.
Use an orbital buffer for faster results, but keep in mind that it's more difficult to control the amount of finish that your polish removes. It can also create deep scratches if any dirt or debris comes between the buffer pad and the vehicle. If you use an orbital buffer, use it on the slowest setting available to ensure that you don't remove too much paint from your car.
Use a hand-polish technique for greater control. Applying car polish by hand with a soft cloth takes much longer, but gives you greater control over the process. It is also less expensive than an orbital buffer.
1-2. Wash your car thoroughly.
If there is any dirt or debris on your car, polishing will grind it into the finish. Be sure the car is completely dry before you begin polishing.
1-3. Apply the polish to a soft cloth or the pad of your orbital buffer, and rub it in a circular motion on the car.
If you're using an orbital buffer, turn it on after you've used the pad to rub some of the polish on the car to prevent splattering.
Apply more pressure at the site of the scratch if you're working only on a scratched section of your car. Gradually reduce pressure as you move away from it. This will help the newly polished area blend in with the rest of your car.
Work slowly and do 1 small section at a time if you're polishing your entire vehicle. Use plenty of polishing paste, and take care to keep your cloth from drying out.
1-4. Continue to rub or buff the area in a circular motion until the polish disappears completely.
Finish working on 1 area entirely before moving on to the next, so that the polish does not have a chance to dry on your car's finish before you've rubbed or buffed it away.
1-5. Finished.
Tips
Wax your car after polishing to protect your newly polished car.
Warnings
Apply polish to your car only when the finish has become dull and flat. Since polish is abrasive, it should be used as infrequently as possible.
Don't confuse car polish with car wax. Polishes are slightly abrasive, and are used to smooth the finish of your car. Waxes are generally not abrasive, and are used to protect your car's finish. However, some types of car waxes ("Cleaner wax") are slightly abrasive and will remove some clear coat from your car. Always check the manufacturer's instructions. If you are using cleaner wash you might want to skip the pre-wax polishing. Once again, refer to the manufacturer's indications.
Replace your buffer pad or soft cloth if you drop it during the polishing process. This ensures that no dirt or debris can become embedded in it and scratch your car.

1,877 | How to Use Castor Oil to Promote Healthy Hair | 1. Mixing the Oil
1-1. Gather your castor oil, a secondary oil, and your other supplies.
Treating your hair with castor oil is simple enough, but there are a few ingredients and tools that make it even more effective and easier to apply, such as a secondary oil to mix with the castor oil for easier application.. Here’s what you’ll need for this method:
Castor oil
Other hair oil (We recommend argan, avocado, coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond oil.)
Hot water
Large bowl
Jar
Shower cap
Towel
Old shirt (recommended)
1-2. Dilute the castor oil with an equal amount of another hair oil.
Castor oil is fairly thick, and mixing it with another oil makes it a little easier to apply. In a jar, combine 1 part castor oil and 1 part of another common hair oil, such as olive oil or coconut oil. You only need about 2–3 US tbsp (30–44 mL) of each, and you can always mix more.
Use cold-pressed castor oil if you plan to distribute the oil throughout your hair, and black castor oil if you only want a scalp treatment. It’s thought that cold-pressed oil is gentler on hair.
Try the following combination: 3 tablespoons (44 ml) of castor oil, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of jojoba oil, and 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of coconut oil.
1-3. Add a few drops of essential oil to mask the smell.
Some people find the scent of castor oil unpleasant. If this bothers you, add in 2 to 3 drops of a fresh-smelling essential oil, such as tea tree oil. Or, mix a few drops of rosemary, peppermint, cedar, and thyme oil to create an essential oil mixture that targets hair growth.
1-4. Shake the jar vigorously to mix everything together.
Once all your ingredients are inside the jar, close the lid tightly. Then, shake the jar for a few minutes, or until everything is well-incorporated. Ideally, the mixture will be uniform and free of any separation.
1-5. Place the jar in a large bowl of hot water for 2-4 minutes.
Heat water on the stove or in a kettle until it just begins to boil. Then, place the jar into a large, heat-resistant bowl, and pour the water into the bowl around the jar, until the lower half of the jar is submerged. Heating the oil this way makes a hot oil treatment. The warm oil more easily saturates your hair and seeps into your scalp.
Do not attempt to warm the oil in the microwave, which can overheat the oil and cause injury when you apply it to your scalp.
1-6. Pour the warmed oil into a small, shallow bowl.
This will make it easier for you to dip your fingers into when you go to apply it. Also keep an eyedropper handy, if you have one, which will make for more precise and easy application.
If you don’t have an eye dropper, you use a spray bottle.
2. Using the Castor Oil
2-1. Dampen your hair to help the oil absorb into your scalp.
Although castor oil can be applied to dry hair, dampening your hair may help the oil absorb better. Mist your scalp with a spray bottle of water, or wet your hands and run them along the length of your hair, starting at your scalp. Make your hair just a little damp, but not dripping wet.
2-2. Cover your shoulders with a towel.
This will protect your clothes from oil splashes or drips. In addition, wear an old T-shirt to avoid getting oil stains on your good clothes.
2-3. Massage the oil into your scalp for 3 to 5 minutes.
Dip your fingers into the oil, then spread it between your roots and across your scalp. Massage your head with your fingertips using small, circular motions. Don’t use too much oil, but just enough to coat your scalp. A little bit goes a long way!
Alternatively, use an eye dropper to drip the oil onto various points on your scalp. This may be easier and less messy. Be sure to massage the oil into your scalp for about 5 minutes.
Alternatively, dip a cotton ball in the oil and use it to apply the oil to your scalp.
2-4. Apply the oil to the rest of your hair.
Wet your fingers with a little more oil and rub it between your palms. Then, run your hands across your hair, from the roots to the ends. Use your fingers to comb the oil through your hair; this helps distribute the oil. Again, start with a small amount. You do not need a lot of oil.
2-5. Cover your hair with a shower cap.
Loosely pile your hair on top of your head, then put on a shower cap. If you need to, keep it in place with a claw clip. The shower cap will trap the heat inside, and it will keep your hair from drying out.
2-6. Wrap a hot, damp towel over the shower cap.
Warm up a towel by soaking it with hot water under a shower head. Twist the towel to get any excess water out, then wrap it around your head. Tuck the end of the towel in under your "turban," or secure it with a large hair clip. The heat from the towel will make the oil more effective.
2-7. Wash the oil out of your hair
After about 20 minutes, step into the shower and shampoo the castor oil out of your hair. Wash your hair until the oily feeling is completely gone. Some people find that washing with just conditioner—skipping the shampoo—is more effective than using shampoo.
If your hair doesn’t feel overly oily or heavy after the treatment, you may choose to leave the oil in instead of washing it out.
2-8. Apply oil to your scalp once a week, or according to your preference.
Start by applying the oil once a week, and then shift to more applications if your hair continues to feel dry. Or, use fewer applications if your hair becomes uncomfortably oily. Keep in mind that you may not see results like thicker or stronger hair the next day; use the castor oil treatment for 2-3 months before expecting any dramatic changes.
If you begin to notice buildup from the castor oil on your hair and scalp, use a clarifying shampoo. This helps remove any buildup in between castor oil treatments.
Tips
Buy cold-pressed, unrefined castor oil.[12]
X
Research source
One-hundred percent castor oil will be more effective and have the most nutrients. Skip on the refined or adulterated castor oil, which have very few nutrients left and will not be as effective.
If your hair tends to tangle easily, you may find that it is more sleek and easier to manage after this treatment.[13]
X
Research source
Warnings
Castor oil may darken light-colored hair. This is not too noticeable, and it is not permanent.
Apply a small dab of castor oil to the inside of your wrist as a test for irritation before applying it to your scalp. Wait 24 hours, observing the spot for adverse effects.[14]
X
Research source
Avoid ingesting castor oil if you are pregnant or suffer from long-term digestive issues.[15]
X
Research source
Note that castor oil has not been clinically proven to promote hair growth.[16]

1,878 | How to Apply Castor Oil on Your Face | 1. Testing for Allergies
1-1. Rub 2 drops of castor oil on your arm.
It is important to test whether your skin will have a bad reaction to castor oil before you use it on your face. Gently rub 2 drops of castor oil onto your bare arm in an area that the oil won’t get washed off or wiped away.
The top of your forearm near your wrist is a good place to put the oil.
1-2. Let the castor oil sit for 1 hour.
To test how your skin reacts, you should leave the castor oil on your arm for at least 1 hour. This is much longer than the amount of time you’ll be letting it sit on your face, but it is better to make sure that you won’t have a reaction before using castor oil.
1-3. Remove the castor oil if any redness or itching occurs.
If your arm turns red, gets hot, or starts to itch, you may be allergic to castor oil. Wipe the oil off with a warm cloth and use soap and water to wash your arm. If your arm does not turn red or have any reaction to the oil, it is probably safe to use on your face.
If you have a reaction to the oil and it does not getter better within 1 day, talk to your doctor.
2. Cleansing Your Skin
2-1. Take off your makeup with makeup remover.
Use a makeup remover to take off your makeup like you normally would. Try to get as much of it off of your face as you can before you start cleansing your skin so that the oil actually cleans your face, and doesn’t just remove your makeup.
You can buy makeup remover products at most beauty supply stores.
2-2. Rinse your face gently with warm water and pat it dry.
In a sink, rinse your face with warm water to remove any dirt or debris that might be on your face. Make sure your water is only lukewarm and not too hot, or you can hurt your skin. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
2-3. Drop 2 to 3 drops of castor oil into your hands.
With castor oil, less is more. You only need to use 2 to 3 drops of the oil to cleanse your face. Make sure your hands are clean and use the dropper to put 2 to 3 drops in the palm of your hand. Then, rub your hands together until the oil covers both of your palms.
Using too much oil can result in clogged pores.
2-4. Massage the oil into your face.
Take about 1 minute to rub the oil onto your face. Spend time massaging it into your cheeks, forehead, and nose areas. You can focus the oil on any dry or acne-prone areas on your face.
You can use this step to give your face a gentle massage as well.
2-5. Wipe the oil off with a warm, wet washcloth.
Take a washcloth and run it under warm water. Use your wash cloth to gently wipe the oil off of your face. This might take a couple of passes, and you might have to wring out your washcloth 2 or 3 times before all the oil is off of your face. Make sure to remove all the oil from your face, or it could clog your pores.
Wiping your face with a washcloth also exfoliates your skin.
3. Moisturizing Your Face
3-1. Wash your skin with a face cleanser and pat it dry.
Your skin should be clean and dry before you apply castor oil. Make sure your hands are clean before you start. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and warm water, and then pat it dry with a clean towel.
You can buy face cleansers that are made with different formulas for your specific skin. If you have dry skin, or acne, or oily skin, look for a cleanser that specifies it will help with your skin type.
3-2. Drop 2 drops of castor oil into the palm of your hand.
Using a dropper, drop 2 drops of castor oil into your hand and rub your palms together to slightly spread it around. Coat your hands evenly to make sure it spreads evenly on your skin.
Mix 2 drops of castor oil with 6 drops of sesame oil for added moisture if your face is particularly dry.
3-3. Rub the castor oil into your skin.
Gently massage the castor oil into your skin for 1 minute. Concentrate the oil on more dry, flaky areas of your face, like around your eyes, your nose, or or your forehead. The oil will sit on top of your skin a little bit, but it should be mostly absorbed into your skin after 1 minute.
3-4. Rinse your face with lukewarm water.
Castor oil is too heavy to sit on your skin for a long period of time. Gently rinse the excess castor oil off of your face using warm water and a washcloth if you need it. Don’t harshly rub your skin, because you might irritate it.
Warnings
Test castor oil on your arm for an allergic reaction before using it on your face.

1,879 | How to Apply Ceramic Tiles to Concrete | 1. Steps
1-1. Prepare the concrete.
Using an acid based cleaner or deep cleaner of your choice, clean the concrete and allow it to dry thoroughly. Examine the floor and see if there are any cracks or pits that need to be fixed and use the proper concrete repair kit to repair them.
A muriatic or other acid-based cleaner is usually the best way to completely clean the concrete prior to installing tile.
1-2. Seal and level the concrete.
Once your repairs have dried, take the time to seal the concrete. Once the sealer has dried, apply the concrete patch or leveler and make sure that you have a flat surface with no defects. The floor must be level or your tiles and grout will form cracks.
Cleaning the concrete should be done before adding a floor leveling compound. A sodium silicate or lithium silicate based sealer will help to waterproof and strengthen the concrete. Because silicates work below the surface, they won’t interfere with adhesion.
1-3. Plan the tile layout.
Before installing the tile it is a good idea to lay out your design. Pre-plan which and how many pieces of tile have to be cut and where the cut tile will be placed. Chalk lines will become very helpful so make sure you mark the floor.
1-4. Mix the mortar.
After you have decided where you want to begin, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and begin to mix the mortar. Don’t mix too much in advance, as it will begin to set up on you before you can use it. Using your grooved trowel, begin spreading the mortar over a small area. Never spread out more than what you can cover with three or four tiles at a time.
Different kinds of tile require different types of mortar. Ask the sales representative who sells you the tile to help you choose the right one.
A grooved trowel will be necessary to spread the mortar. They are available with different sized grooves, so be sure to read the package directions on the mortar to ensure that you buy the right size.
1-5. Install the tiles.
Lay the tiles into the mortar and using the spacers, make sure you are running even with the chalk line. As you move on to the subsequent rows, use the spacers to keep your pattern square. Once a tile is set, try to avoid touching it again.
1-6. Clean the area.
Wash the tiles off with a damp rag as you go to prevent clumps of mortar from drying on the surface. As you get to the end of the room, make sure your cut pieces fit properly, and then leave the mortar to dry for the manufacturer’s specified length of time.
1-7. Apply grout.
Mix the grout as specified on the package and begin liberally spreading it over the tile using the grout float. Use the float to make sure that there are no low spots, and then use a damp rag to wipe any excess grout from the face of the tile. Don’t worry at this point if the tile appears a little cloudy. Once the grout has had time to set up, repeat the process, again using the float to squeegee and extra grout off of the face of the tile.
Aside from being available in many different colors, grout comes in two varieties: sanded and un-sanded. The sanded variety is used when the gaps between your tiles is bigger than 1/8″. The sand gives the grout additional strength. Anything 1/8″ or smaller will be just fine using un-sanded grout. You will most likely find that you want to use the un-sanded grout in the smaller gaps because it finishes much smoother. Working sanded grout into a small gap can be frustrating.
One word of warning: if you are using marble tile on your floor, never use sanded grout! Make sure you install it with 1/8″ or smaller gap because you must use un-sanded grout with marble. The sanded grout will scratch the surface of the marble tile and it is not repairable.
1-8. Clean up.
Once the grout is completely dry, take a wet rag and wash the surface of the entire floor. As the floor dries, you will probably notice a haze forming over the tile. Allow it to dry completely again, and then go back over it with a slightly damp rag – this should polish the haze right off.
A grout float can be used to work the grout into the gaps between the tiles.
1-9. Seal the grout.
Once you have polished the remaining grout and mortar residue off of the floor and you are confident that the grout has fully cured, use the grout sealer to prevent stains and mildew from taking hold in the future.
Tips
Choose the type and style you want to go with. Make sure you add 15% to your square footage measurements when ordering to compensate for mistakes and for cut pieces.

1,880 | How to Apply Clay on Hair | 1. Styling Product
1-1. Wash your hair with shampoo.
You should always start with clean hair so the clay doesn’t have to compete with your natural oils or leftover product. Use your shampoo like you normally would, then rinse it out.
If your hair is already clean, you can get it damp again using a spray bottle.
Hair clay works best on short-medium hair for an extra bit of hold throughout the day.
1-2. Towel dry your hair for about 20 seconds.
You don’t want your hair to be dripping wet, but it should be damp still. Use a towel to rub your hair gently until the majority of the water is out.
If your hair is too wet, the clay won’t be able to stick as well, and it could slide right off your hair.
1-3. Scoop out a dime-sized dollop of hair clay with your finger.
Open up your hair clay and use your pointer finger to gently scoop just a little bit out. You don’t need a ton of hair clay to cover your whole head, so start out with less than you think you need.
Hair clay is already soft, so you shouldn’t have any trouble scooping it out.
1-4. Rub the clay in between your palms.
Spend a few seconds warming the clay up to get it ready for your hair. Smooth it in between your palms to thoroughly coat your hands for an even application.
1-5. Run your hands back and forth through your hair.
Start by raking your fingers from back to front, then go side to side, and front to back. Make sure you coat all of your hair with your hair clay as thoroughly as possible.
Your hair might look a little messy at this point, but that’s okay! You’ll be able to fix it in just a moment.
1-6. Smooth down flyaways with your hand or a comb.
Use your hands to part your hair in the direction you’d like it to sit. Then, use a fine-toothed comb or your hands to gently press down on any flyaway pieces and stick them in place.
As the clay dries, it will keep your hair in place without creating a hard shell like gel does.
The clay will create a cast in your hair that will dry as your hair does. Heat styling tools, like hair dryers and straighteners, might make the clay feel crunchy, so stay away from them after you’ve put the clay in your hair.
2. Hair Mask
2-1. Mix the clay with water until it’s smooth.
The exact amount of clay you’ll need depends on how much hair you have, so start with about 1 cup (128 g) in a large bowl. Add in 1 c (240 mL) of water and stir your mixture together.
Aim for a yogurt-like consistency.
Read the instructions on your clay mask before you start. Some require you to mix in apple cider vinegar instead of water.
You can find bentonite clay masks or Aztec clay masks at most beauty supply stores.
Clay masks may help your hair feel softer and cleaner, but there isn’t any scientific evidence to support it. Use your clay mask on your own hair to find out if it’s right for you.
2-2. Wet your hair down with water.
You can use a spray bottle for a light misting or head to the shower. Make sure your hair isn’t dripping wet, but just damp enough for the clay to adhere to.
Clay dries out quickly when it reacts with air, so it’s super hard to put on dry hair. Wetting your hair down will make it go on smoother and come off easier.
2-3. Section your hair into 3 to 4 sections.
Aim for 2 sections on either side of your head to make your application easier. Put up each section with a hair clip to keep it up and out of the way.
If you have a lot of hair, do 5 to 6 sections instead.
2-4. Massage the clay into your hair from roots to ends.
Grab a handful of clay and rub it in between your palms. Pick a section of hair and gently rub the clay onto your roots and your scalp, moving downwards toward the end of your hair. Keep adding clay until your entire head is covered.
If the clay starts to dry out, mist it with a spray bottle to keep it moist.
2-5. Cover your hair with a shower cap for 5 to 20 minutes.
This will lock in moisture to keep the clay from drying. As it sits on your hair, the clay will moisturize and refresh your scalp and your hair, leaving it shiny and clean.
If you leave the clay on for too long, it will dry out. It’s not bad for your hair, but it won’t moisturize or refresh your hair once it’s dry.
2-6. Wash the clay out with shampoo and warm water.
Head to your shower or sink and gently wash the clay out of your hair. Take the time to really wash all the clay out, as leaving it in your hair can lead to dryness and itching.
You can also condition your hair after you wash out the clay if you’d like to.
You can use a clay mask about once a week.
Tips
If your hair clay styling product dries and becomes crunchy, use a little less next time.

1,881 | How to Apply Clear Coat | 1. Spraying the Car Body
1-1. Hold the spray gun 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) away from the surface.
If you go over a section where the surface of the car is tilted, tilt the gun as well in order to be parallel to the surface. This should give you the lightest, most even paint layers possible.
1-2. Make steady, even passes that overlap each other by 50%.
Covering half of the previous pass each time will help you achieve an even application and prevent the “tiger striping” effect. Make sure to spray on the paint in consistently straight, even lines across the car surface.
1-3. Apply a coat of paint to the car.
Spray a light coat of paint all over the body of the car. Keep the paint thin and wet in order to achieve an even application and keep the drying time short.
If the paint is too thick, you can run into problems like filminess or a foggy, hazy effect.
1-4. Let the paint dry for at least 10 minutes.
With thin individual layers of paint, the drying time is fairly short between applications. Waiting a full 10 minutes between coats will help the paint settle and set, or “flash,” before it’s covered by another layer.
1-5. Apply a second coat of paint to the entire car.
After the first layer has dried, add a second layer of paint. This layer can be a bit thicker because it will have more time to dry out completely. Make sure to apply the paint slowly and carefully to avoid any drips and imperfections.
1-6. Wait 1 hour for the layers to fully dry.
Don’t touch the clear coat while you’re waiting for it to dry. Let it sit undisturbed in order to let the paint cure and set properly. This will help ensure the clear coat’s durability and quality.
2. Clear Coat Maintenance
2-1. Hand wash your car
Use a quality wash mitt, 2 buckets of washing and rinsing water, car-wash soap, and microfiber towels to wash your car regularly. Take extra care to be gentle over the clear coat and remove any dirt buildup that could cause scratches. It’s best to wash your car sooner rather than later to remove any dust and dirt that could damage your clear coat.
2-2. Wait 30-45 days before waxing, buffing, or going through a carwash.
After applying clear coat, it’s important to wait and let the paint harden before applying too much pressure. For warmer climates, waiting 30 days should be sufficient. However, for cars in colder climates, you should wait 45 days because low temperatures can slow the curing process.
2-3. Ask car wash employees to take care with your clear coat.
Clear coat can be easily scratched during a ride through an older car wash. If the car wash includes a manual rub-down, make sure the attendants use clean, soft towels on the clear coat.
Typically, modern car washes are gentler and won’t scratch your clear coat.
2-4. Wax your clear coat
Excessive buffing and rubbing can damage the clear coat, so make sure to use a non-abrasive formula and polish carefully. Waxing regularly helps protect the paint job and visually enhances the paint quality.
Generally, car wax only lasts about 2-3 months, but depending on the weather and the car’s paint condition, this time may vary.
3. Painting Materials
3-1. Choose a solvent and activator for your current weather conditions.
Think about size and area of the repair as well as the current temperature and humidity when making your choice. Some products are formulated for higher temperatures and extra moisture, so make sure to check the product labels. Keep in mind that you should also try to paint in optimal conditions.
3-2. Try to paint on a warm day.
In general, it's not a good idea to paint your car if you’re in temperatures above 90 °F (32 °C) or below 55 °F (13 °C). You should also avoid painting in direct sunlight by painting in the shade, in the early morning, or at nighttime.
3-3. Use quality car-painting equipment.
For this project, higher quality tools will likely be worth the extra cost. You can buy or rent a gun, compressor, respirator, and air/oil separator along with an air hose.
Clear coat is best applied with a spray gun because it acts like a solvent. If you try to apply it with pressure, rather than floating it on with an aerosol tool, it can remove the base coat beneath it.
You could also use clear coat in a spray can, but a gun will give you a smoother, more professional finish.
3-4. Wet-sand
Look for any peeling, delaminating, or flaking in the old clear coat. If you find damage, use 400-600 grit sandpaper and an orbital sander to wet-sand off all of the old clear-coat. It’s important to start over with a base coat for the new urethane to bond properly.
To wet-sand, spray your sandpaper down with water. This will prevent the sandpaper from creating deep scratches in the car’s surface.
Wipe down the surface with a tack cloth after sanding to clean up any dust.
3-5. Practice spraying on a smooth piece of scrap metal.
Before you spray your car, test out your materials and practice your spraying technique on a smooth metal surface. Follow all the steps from start to finish, making note of any issues or imperfections that you should adjust for the final project.
If you’re using a can of spray clear coat, make sure to shake it well before spraying.
Tips
After applying a base coat, always apply your clear coat within 24 hours. Check the minimum drying time on the base coat for more information.
Warnings
Always use protective equipment when painting, such as rubber gloves, a chemical respirator, and safety goggles.
Make sure to paint in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling hazardous paint fumes.
Automotive paint is extremely hazardous, so make sure to keep it away from children.
Always read the directions and warnings on the product labels.

1,882 | How to Apply Clear Coat on Wood | 1. Sanding and Cleaning the Surface
1-1. Work in a clean room with good ventilation and lighting.
In order to properly apply a clear coat to wood, you want to work in an environment with as little dust as possible. Good lighting, such as natural light or bright artificial light, will enable you watch out for streaks and bubbles in your work.
Good ventilation is crucial. Crack a window to let fresh air in.
If you're working in a small space, you may want to prop an exhaust fan in the window. Face the fan out to pull vapors from the room and blow them outside.
Never work in a damp area, as this will mess with your finish.
1-2. Sand the surface with medium grit sandpaper.
Use 80 or 100-grit sandpaper to lightly go over the entire surface of your project, taking care to get into the nooks and crannies. Use medium grit sandpaper to eliminate any major scratches, notches, or blemishes in the wood.
If you're working on a very large project, you may want to use an electric sander or sanding block to get the job done.
You can use sanding sponges for corners and complex areas where a power sander cannot reach.
Wear protective gear if you use power tools.
1-3. Follow up with fine and extra fine grit sandpaper.
After smoothing out the larger blemishes with medium grit sandpaper, use fine 100-grit sandpaper to level and smooth the surface. Follow that up with an extra-fine 220-grit sandpaper to create the smoothest surface possible.
The smoother the surface, the better your clear coat will adhere and look.
1-4. Vacuum up the sanding dust with a shop vac.
Use a vacuum with a soft bristle attachment to get rid of all the dust on your project's surface. Vacuum the area around the project, as well. It's important that you rid the area of all dust generated by your sanding. Otherwise, that dust can end up trapped and visible beneath the clear coat.
1-5. Wipe down the surface with a cloth moistened with mineral spirits.
Use a lint-free cloth to ensure no traces of the cloth's material are left behind. Dampen the cloth with mineral spirits and wipe down the entire surface. Be sure to get into the nooks and crannies. Then go over the surface one final time with a dry tack cloth.
2. Sealing the Surface
2-1. Use an oil-based polyurethane and a foam or natural bristle brush.
Oil-based polyurethane in a satin sheen is an excellent all-purpose clear coat that is relatively easy to apply. Purchase this and your foam brush at a hardware or home improvement store.
Foam brushes are recommended because they are inexpensive, and you can toss them out when you’re done.
Natural bristle brushes are also a great choice, although they are more expensive and not disposable.
2-2. Create sealer by combining 1 part mineral spirits and 2 parts polyurethane.
You can create your own homemade sealer by thinning the polyurethane with paint thinner. Stir the polyurethane well, then combine it with the mineral spirits in a glass jar or plastic bucket. Stir gently with a wooden wand to combine the ingredients.
Creating a homemade sealer is the easiest and most economical choice.
2-3. Brush on 1 coat of the sealer with long, even strokes.
Dip your brush into the sealer to load it with product. Starting on 1 side of your project and working systematically to the other side, brush on the sealer with long, even strokes.
Watch for dripping. If you notice any drips, brush over them to smooth them out.
2-4. Wait for 5 minutes and examine the surface once more for dripping.
Because the sealer is pretty thin, dripping can be a problem. You definitely don't want any drips to dry on the surface, since this will disturb your smooth finish. Give the coat of sealer about 5 minutes to dry, then examine the surface once more for drips. Smooth out any that you see with your brush.
Leave this to cure for 12-24 hours.
3. Applying the First 2 Coats
3-1. Apply the first coat of straight polyurethane from the can.
Dunk your brush into the full-strength polyurethane and brush it onto the surface. Start on 1 side of the project and work systematically to the other side. Use long, even strokes. Stretch out the finish as thin as possible.
Always apply the finish as evenly as possible.
When bubbles occur, brush back over the finish lightly to cause them to pop.
You can also use a spray-on finish instead of brushing it on.
3-2. Brush on a second undiluted coat of polyurethane.
Once the entire surface is wet with your first coat, go back over it with another coat of full-strength polyurethane straight from the can. Use long, even strokes. Overlap each stroke to ensure smoothness.
Watch for any drips and smooth them out with your brush as they occur.
3-3. Check for drips and then let the finish dry for 24 hours.
Wait 5 minutes after application and then examine the surface a final time for drips. If you find any, use your brush to smooth them out. Before moving on to your final coat, let the first 2 cure completely over a 24 hour period.
Make sure the surface is fully dry to the touch before proceeding.
4. Applying the Final Coat
4-1. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper.
Rub the sandpaper over the surface of your wood until it feels smooth to the touch. Inspect the surface closely and smooth out any major bubbles, specks, and runs. You want the wood to be as smooth as possible before adding the last coat of polyurethane.
4-2. Wipe down the surface with a tack rag.
A tack rag is a sticky cloth that you can purchase at home improvement stores. Use it to remove as much sanding dust as you can from the surface. The smoother the surface, the better the project will look after the final coat.
If you don’t have a tack rag, you can use a moistened lint-free cloth or a vacuum cleaner.
4-3. Apply a full-strength final coat.
Just as you did with the initial coats, brush the polyurethane onto the surface, working systematically from one side of the project to the other. Pop any bubbles you see by brushing back over the finish. Move in the direction of the wood grain.
Always stretch the polyurethane as thin as you can.
Let the surface cure for 24 hours.

1,883 | How to Apply Cologne | 1. Knowing When to Wear Cologne
1-1. Wear cologne at the appropriate times.
Cologne is not necessary at work, but it's generally acceptable. A big event, such as a wedding, funeral, party, or night out on the town, might easily call for cologne.
Be aware of how your body's oils interact with your cologne. If you're going clubbing, for example, it may not be the best idea to apply lots of cologne: your natural body odor mixed with cologne may be even worse smelling than just your natural body odor.
Some people are allergic to cologne. You'll need to be sensitive of this potential issue when working in an office or spending time in other indoor areas.
1-2. Wear cologne because it makes you smell good, feel good, and act confident.
Any other reason to wear cologne ("Because I want to feel like a man," "Because my friend is doing it," etc.) is pointless. Wear cologne when you need the fragrance. With that being said, apply it when you feel like it and enjoy your scent.
1-3. Choose different colognes for different occasions.
Many men prefer to wear one cologne during the day, at work, and a completely different one when they go out. Some sources recommend a lighter, citrus-based scent for afternoons and workplace environments, and a stronger scent with spice undertones or musky notes for the night.
2. Deciding Where to Apply It
2-1. Apply the cologne to your pulse points.
These are the areas of your body that produce a lot of body heat. The heat will cause the fragrance to continue to smell good all day long. If you just put the cologne on your clothes, it may not be detectable for long.
The insides of your wrists are a good spot for cologne.
Behind the ears is another spot that many men like to utilize.
2-2. Consider the chest.
This is a great place to apply cologne since it scents your shirt and provides a nice burst of scent to whomever you might end up hugging.
2-3. Don't forget the neck.
If you're relatively sure your date's head may be close to your neck at some point during the evening, be sure to dab some cologne on your neck for good measure. Your date does not want to smell sweat so add a medium amount on your neck. Cologne applied here mixes with your natural scent, creating a unique smell that is truly you.
2-4. Keep it clear of areas where you sweat excessively.
If you tend to get body odor, don't use cologne as a way to mask it. Less appealing smells don't mix well with cologne, so it's best not to layer it on in the wrong areas.
2-5. Choose one or two spots.
You don't have to put cologne on every pulse point; in fact, if you do so your scent will probably be overwhelming for those around you. Choose a few spots, and keep it subtle.
3. Putting it On
3-1. Take a shower first.
The hot water cleanses your skin and opens your pores, providing a good base for the cologne. It won't smell good mixed with dirty skin, and if you spray it on dry it may not last as long.
3-2. Spray from several inches away.
If your cologne has a spray bottle, do not spray right next to your skin; you don't want the liquid dripping down your shirt. It'll be way too strong, so hold it a few inches from your body and give yourself a light squirt.
3-3. Dab very sparingly.
If your bottle doesn't have a spray nozzle, use the dabbing method. Cover the open bottle with your finger, tip the bottle, then right the bottle and put it down. Dab the liquid on your finger in the area where you wish to apply the cologne.
One small dab is sufficient; don't double-dab.
Wash your hands after using this method, so you don't get cologne smell on everything you touch.
3-4. Don't rub it in.
This changes the way the cologne smells and makes the scent go away faster. Instead of rubbing the cologne, just spray or dab it on and let it dry on the skin.
3-5. Don't mix cologne with other smells.
You shouldn't wear cologne with strongly-scented deodorant or aftershave. The smells might not go well together, and the combination could leave you smelling like a department store perfume counter.
3-6. Don't reapply too often.
You'll quickly grow used to the smell of your cologne, to the point where you might think it's completely worn off. Other people, however, will still be able to smell it. You probably don't need to apply cologne more than once a day, right before you go out. If you absolutely feel the need to put on some more, keep it light.
Tips
Never put so much cologne on your body, so that it is offensive to others. People should notice you, not your cologne.
According to many "Gentleman" books, if a person can identify the cologne/perfume you are wearing, you are wearing too much.
Warnings
Keep cologne away from the genital area as this can cause irritation.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Knowing When to Wear Cologne\\n1-1. Wear cologne at the appropriate times.\\nCologne is not necessary at work, but it's generally acceptable. A big event, such as a wedding, funeral, party, or night out on the town, might easily call for cologne.\\nBe aware of how your body's oils interact with your cologne. If you're going clubbing, for example, it may not be the best idea to apply lots of cologne: your natural body odor mixed with cologne may be even worse smelling than just your natural body odor.\\nSome people are allergic to cologne. You'll need to be sensitive of this potential issue when working in an office or spending time in other indoor areas.\\n1-2. Wear cologne because it makes you smell good, feel good, and act confident.\\nAny other reason to wear cologne (\\\"Because I want to feel like a man,\\\" \\\"Because my friend is doing it,\\\" etc.) is pointless. Wear cologne when you need the fragrance. With that being said, apply it when you feel like it and enjoy your scent.\\n1-3. Choose different colognes for different occasions.\\nMany men prefer to wear one cologne during the day, at work, and a completely different one when they go out. Some sources recommend a lighter, citrus-based scent for afternoons and workplace environments, and a stronger scent with spice undertones or musky notes for the night.\\n2. Deciding Where to Apply It\\n2-1. Apply the cologne to your pulse points.\\nThese are the areas of your body that produce a lot of body heat. The heat will cause the fragrance to continue to smell good all day long. If you just put the cologne on your clothes, it may not be detectable for long.\\nThe insides of your wrists are a good spot for cologne.\\nBehind the ears is another spot that many men like to utilize.\\n2-2. Consider the chest.\\nThis is a great place to apply cologne since it scents your shirt and provides a nice burst of scent to whomever you might end up hugging.\\n2-3. Don't forget the neck.\\nIf you're relatively sure your date's head may be close to your neck at some point during the evening, be sure to dab some cologne on your neck for good measure. Your date does not want to smell sweat so add a medium amount on your neck. Cologne applied here mixes with your natural scent, creating a unique smell that is truly you.\\n2-4. Keep it clear of areas where you sweat excessively.\\nIf you tend to get body odor, don't use cologne as a way to mask it. Less appealing smells don't mix well with cologne, so it's best not to layer it on in the wrong areas.\\n2-5. Choose one or two spots.\\nYou don't have to put cologne on every pulse point; in fact, if you do so your scent will probably be overwhelming for those around you. Choose a few spots, and keep it subtle.\\n3. Putting it On\\n3-1. Take a shower first.\\nThe hot water cleanses your skin and opens your pores, providing a good base for the cologne. It won't smell good mixed with dirty skin, and if you spray it on dry it may not last as long.\\n3-2. Spray from several inches away.\\nIf your cologne has a spray bottle, do not spray right next to your skin; you don't want the liquid dripping down your shirt. It'll be way too strong, so hold it a few inches from your body and give yourself a light squirt.\\n3-3. Dab very sparingly.\\nIf your bottle doesn't have a spray nozzle, use the dabbing method. Cover the open bottle with your finger, tip the bottle, then right the bottle and put it down. Dab the liquid on your finger in the area where you wish to apply the cologne.\\nOne small dab is sufficient; don't double-dab.\\nWash your hands after using this method, so you don't get cologne smell on everything you touch.\\n3-4. Don't rub it in.\\nThis changes the way the cologne smells and makes the scent go away faster. Instead of rubbing the cologne, just spray or dab it on and let it dry on the skin.\\n3-5. Don't mix cologne with other smells.\\nYou shouldn't wear cologne with strongly-scented deodorant or aftershave. The smells might not go well together, and the combination could leave you smelling like a department store perfume counter.\\n3-6. Don't reapply too often.\\nYou'll quickly grow used to the smell of your cologne, to the point where you might think it's completely worn off. Other people, however, will still be able to smell it.

1,884 | How to Apply Command Strips | 1. Determining How to Hang Items
1-1. Ensure the surface is suitable for the strips.
You can apply Command Strips to metal, tile, glass, painted drywall, and painted or varnished wood. Do not apply them to wallpaper, antiques, or valuable/irreplaceable items. Don’t use the strips to hang anything over a bed.
Avoid using Command Strips on vinyl, since they may not stay adhered.
If you’re using hooks with clear strips, choose a smooth surface.
To maintain adhesion, apply Command Strips to surfaces that stay between 50°F (10°C) and 105°F (40°C).
Avoid hanging command strips directly above a heater since the heat could melt the adhesive and cause them to fall.
Command strips don't typically hold up well in humid environments, like in bathrooms.
1-2. Ensure the weight of items you’re hanging is acceptable.
Check the package of your product to find its exact weight limit. If your items exceed the weight limit, consider other options such as screws and studs or a picture string.
Command Strips come in a variety of sizes with different weight-bearing capacities.
Depending on the product, 3M may advise that you use only one hook per item you’re hanging.
1-3. Measure and mark the surface.
Ask someone to hold up the item, if possible, so you can stand back and decide if the placement is satisfactory. Use a level to align a picture; if it’s a group of pictures, use a laser level. Place a sticky note sideways – like a kite shape – at the top center, above where your item will hang.
You may want to hang a picture 60 inches (152 cm) above the floor, or with its bottom edge six to eight inches (15 to 20 cm) up from a piece of furniture.
For a group of items, cut paper patterns of their shapes. Use low-adhesive tape to place the papers on the wall and decide where you want the items to hang. Then place the corner of a sticky note at the top center of each paper, so that the bottom corner is your reference point.
1-4. Clean the surface.
Dampen a cloth with isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Gently wipe the surface where you plan to adhere the strips. Allow the area to dry.
Don’t clean the surface with household cleaning sprays or wipes. These leave a residue that can make the strip’s adhesion unsteady.
Command strips won't stick as well if the surface you apply them to is dusty or dirty.
2. Applying Hooks with Clear Strips
2-1. Peel the strips apart, if applicable.
If you have multiple strips, separate them by pulling them away from each other.
2-2. Peel off the black liner.
Locate the black liner, marked “Wall Side.” Hold the unlined portion with one hand as you pull the black-printed layer off the strip.
You may need to use your fingernail under an edge of the liner to begin pulling it up.
2-3. Attach the strip to the wall.
Press the sticky side of the strip firmly onto the surface where your hook should hang. Press along the full length of the strip for 30 seconds.
2-4. Adhere the hook to the wall.
Peel off the blue liner. Press the hook firmly onto the strip. Continue pressing the hook for 30 seconds.
The adhesive will bond more securely if you strongly press the hook.
2-5. Let the adhesive cure.
Wait at least one hour before you use the hook. The adhesive needs time to fully bond to the wall. Its bond will not be as strong if the hook holds weight right away.
3. Applying Hooks with Non-Clear Strips
3-1. Separate the strips, if applicable.
If you have multiple strips, pull the strips away from each other to separate them.
3-2. Attach the strip to the hook.
Peel off the red-printed liner. Line up the strip, sticky-side down, with the plate on the backside of the hook. Press firmly along the length of the strip from the top downwards.
3-3. Adhere the hook to the wall.
Peel the black liner off the strip. Press the hook strongly onto the surface where you want the hook. Hold the hook against the surface for thirty seconds.
Pressing the hook firmly allows the adhesive to bond securely.
3-4. Remove the hook to secure the underlying base.
Lift the hook up to slide it off its mounting base. Push the base strongly against the surface for 30 seconds.
Pressing the mounting base directly ensures that the adhesive will bond to its maximum strength.
3-5. Allow the adhesive to cure.
Reattach the hook to its mount by sliding it down onto the base. Don’t hang anything on the hook for at least an hour.
The adhesive needs time to set against the surface before holding any weight.
4. Applying Picture Hanging Strips
4-1. Snap the strips together.
Separate the strips by pulling them apart. Align the shapes of the strips, with the red labels facing outward on each side. Push the strips together until you hear a click.
4-2. Attach the strips to the back of the picture frame.
Peel off one of the red (or green, depending on your product) liners. Place the strip sticky-side down onto the back of the frame. Press the strip down firmly.
Repeat this step for each strip you want to apply to the frame. For example, you may want to use two to four strips per frame.
If you’re using four strips for a frame, put the lowest pair approximately two-thirds of the way down from the frame’s top.
4-3. Adhere the frame to the wall.
Make sure all of the liners are removed. Push the frame against the wall strongly. Hold it firmly for 30 seconds.
4-4. Remove the frame to secure the underlying strips.
Hold the bottom of the frame. Lift it gently towards you and upwards. Press the entire length of the strips for 30 seconds each.
Don’t yank the frame straight towards you, or you’ll loosen the strips instead of detaching the frame from the wall.
4-5. Let the strips cure for at least an hour.
Don’t reattach the frame until an hour has passed. Afterwards, align the frame’s strips with the strips on the wall. Push the frame until all of the strips have clicked into place.
Leaving the frame off of the wall for an hour gives the adhesive time to bond to the wall.
4-6. Readjust the strips if needed.
If the frame isn’t straight, you can remove one or more strips. Hold the bottom two corners of the frame and lift it up and away. Reposition the strip(s) as desired.
Hold the top of the strip you want to reposition with one hand. With your other hand, pinch the strip at the bottom and pull it downwards. Stretch it slowly, straight down – up to 15 inches – until the strip releases from the wall.

1-1. Choose your shade.
Concealer comes in a variety of shapes and colors, so analyze your skin first to determine what you need. Are you trying to cover up acne? Under eye circles? Scars or birthmarks? Once you determine what you want to conceal, you can choose the appropriate color and shade. Use the color wheel to help you figure out which color corrector to use. Match the opposite color on the color wheel to cancel it out.
Green tinted concealer is used to reduce redness.
Yellow tinted concealer will brighten your face.
Lavender concealer can help even out complexions with yellow tones.
Orange or red-tinted concealer is used to cover purple or dark spots.
For scars or under eye circles, use a concealer 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone. Determine whether your skin tone is warm or cool before picking a shade. Be careful not to get too light of a shade, or your complexion might look ashy.
Test skin tone concealer on your face, not on your hands, in order to get a true color match. Make sure that you test your concealer without any other makeup on first.
1-2. Decide what type of concealer you want to use.
Concealers come in many different forms. There are sticks, potted creams, and pencils. These all offer different types of coverage, and some may be better for certain skin types than others.
If you have large pores and oily skin, you may want to avoid cream or stick concealers, as they may make your pores look bigger. Look for a liquid concealer instead.
Use a pencil concealer for acne, as the pointed edge makes it easier to apply around the acne spots. Thicker, cream concealers are also effective as they can be molded and blended over the blemish.
1-3. Prep your face.
Before you apply any concealer, wash your face with a mild face cleanser and apply a moisturizer. Use makeup remover and a q-tip to get rid of any darkness under your eyes that might be the result of old mascara. Your concealer is the first step in your makeup application, and will go on most smoothly over a blank canvas.
1-4. Cover up your under eye circles.
Use a concealer brush or your fingertips (the former is more sanitary) to dab concealer under your eyes. Apply the concealer in the shape of an upside down triangle. Draw a triangle from one end of your eye to the other, bringing the point down your cheek to your nose crease. Blend the concealer in around the edges, so that there is not an obvious change in tone between your skin and the concealer.
Never rub the concealer in around your eyes, as the skin here is damaged very easily. Simply pat or dab the concealer with the tips of your finger or brush in order to blend it. This will also give you lots more coverage than rubbing.
Work the concealer up on the inside of your nose if your eyes are deep-set. This area is often neglected by concealer application, and will leave you still looking sleepy.
Be sure to apply your concealer all the way to the very base of your lash line, directly under your waterline.
Dotting concealer under your eye in a U-shape will appear less natural, and it may be noticeable in photographs.
1-5. Apply your concealer to acne and spots.
If you have any acne, dark spots, sun spots, scars, or birthmarks, now is the time to cover them up. Dab your concealer onto the top of each mark, and then blend softly outwards to your skin. Use a thin layer of concealer to avoid having a caked-on look, and apply more if necessary.
If you have acne, avoid using your fingers to blend the concealer. Using your fingers may spread bacteria that will worsen your breakout, and it will melt the concealer, giving you less coverage. Instead, use a clean makeup brush.
If you are using concealer over a wide area (to cover rosacea, for example), use an especially thin layer and blend the edges very well. The more concealer you wear, the more likely it will become apparent over the course of the day. You can set your concealer with powder to keep it looking natural all day long.
1-6. Set your concealer.
When you are certain all your dark spots and under eye circles have been covered and blended, add a layer of foundation over the top of your concealer. To kill two birds with one stone, use a loose or compact powder foundation. You can also use a cream or liquid foundation, but you will have to add an additional setting powder over the top.
Spread your foundation over the entirety of your face. Use a translucent setting powder with a large brush over the top of your foundation to set it for a solid 12 hours.
Use a brush to reach the inside corners of your eyes and under your lash line; make sure that you cover every part of your face that also has concealer.
Dab a little extra powder over the areas where you put concealer to make sure that they won’t run off over the course of the day.
2. Applying the Rest of Your Foundation Makeup
2-1. Put on your foundation
Once you have finished applying your concealer to your liking, the next step is to put on your foundation. Choose between liquid, cream, powder, or mist foundations to create a smooth skin tone and blank canvas for the rest of your makeup.
2-2. Add a bronzer
Covering your face with concealer and foundation completely smooths out your complexion, but also removes any natural shadows or bronzed areas that your skin has. Apply a bronzer to your cheekbones, inside contours of your nose, and around the perimeter of your face to add dimension to your makeup.
2-3. Put on blush
Although not everyone has a natural rosy tint to their cheeks, it is typical to have a slight blush appear naturally on your face. Add blush to recreate this over the top of your flat foundation.
To apply blush, smile, and brush the blush on the apples of your cheek. Blend it upwards towards your temples.
2-4. Create highlights
To add even further depth to your face makeup, use a cream or powder highlighter along the tops of your cheekbones, under your brow bones, and the inside corner of your eyes. This will make your face pop and set off your entire makeup look.
2-5. Fill in your eyebrows
It is likely that with all the makeup that you've been throwing around that your eyebrows have gotten a little colored and look a bit dull. Fill in your eyebrows to create a natural darkness and draw attention to your eyes and the shape of your face.
2-6. Finished.
Tips
Wash all of your makeup off before going to bed. Leaving makeup on overnight will dry out your skin, clog your pores, and increase the likelihood for developing breakouts or other skin irritations. [3]

Many major department stores offer free makeup consultations and color-matching sessions. Take advantage of this service to get the most out of your makeup.
Make sure the concealer is a very good match to your skin because if your color is too dark throughout the day it will become visible you are wearing concealer as orange patches will show.
Warnings
Use hypoallergenic beauty products if you have sensitive skin.
Use oil-free or non-comedogenic makeup to prevent cosmetic breakouts and other skin irritations. [4]

1,886 | How to Apply Conditional Formatting in Excel | 1. Steps
1-1. Open your document in Excel.
Double-click the Excel spreadsheet that you want to format.
If you haven't yet created your document, open a new blank spreadsheet in Excel and enter your data before continuing.
1-2. Select your data.
Click and drag your mouse from the top-left cell in your data group to the bottom-right cell in your data group. Your data should now be highlighted.
1-3. Click the Home tab.
It's at the top of the Excel window. This is where you'll find the Conditional Formatting option.
1-4. Click Conditional Formatting.
You'll find this in the "Styles" section of the toolbar. Clicking it prompts a drop-down menu to appear.
1-5. Click New Rule….
It's near the bottom of the drop-down menu. Doing so opens the Conditional Formatting window.
1-6. Select a rule type.
In the "Select a Rule Type" section, click one of the following rules:
- Applies conditional formatting to every cell in your data. This is the best option for creating a visual gradient when organizing data by average, etc.
- Applies conditional formatting only to cells containing your specified parameters (e.g., numbers higher than 100).
- Applies conditional formatting to the specified top- or bottom-ranked number (or percentage) of cells.
- Applies conditional formatting to cells falling above or below the average as calculated by Excel.
- Applies conditional formatting to either unique or duplicate values.
- Applies conditional formatting to cells based on a formula that you have to enter.
1-7. Edit your rule.
This step will vary based on the rule that you selected:

1-9. Click the Fill tab.
This tab is in the upper-right side of the new window.
1-10. Select a color.
Click a color that you want to use for the conditional formatting. This is the color that cells matching your formatting parameters will display.
Err on the side of light colors (e.g., yellow, light-green, light-blue), as darker colors tend to obscure the text in the cells—especially if you print the document later.
1-11. Click OK.
It's at the bottom of the window. Doing so closes the "Format" window.
1-12. Click OK to apply the formatting.
You should see any cells matching your formatting criteria become highlighted with your chosen color.

- Click , click , enter the document's name in the "Save As" field, select a save location by clicking the "Where" box and clicking a folder, and click .
Tips
The Conditional Formatting drop-down menu has several shortcut options (e.g., Highlight Cells Rules) that you can use to quickly format your data.
One practical use of conditional formatting is using it to identify cells containing negative numbers in a budget (or zeroes in a store inventory sheet, etc.) so that you don't have to hunt manually for discrepancies.
Warnings
Avoid formatting colors or options that make the cells to which they're applied difficult to read.

1,887 | How to Apply Conditioner to Your Hair | 1. Using Regular Conditioner
1-1. Choose the right conditioner for your hair type.
A traditional conditioner is applied every time you shower, just after you rinse out your shampoo. This type of conditioner works to repair the damage done by hot tools, chemicals, and general wear-and-tear that your hair experiences on a daily basis. Choose a type of conditioner that is advertised for your specific hair needs; whether you have curly and frizzy hair, dry and damaged hair, colored hair, fine hair, relaxed hair, or limp and lank hair, there is a specific conditioner that can help with each.
1-2. Wash your hair.
Hop in the shower, and go along with your regular washing routine. You’ll condition your hair after you wash it, so give your scalp and strands a good scrubbing with your favorite shampoo. Focus most of your washing power on the scalp, being careful not to tug at your wet hair as you wash as this can damage the ends and cause more breakage.
1-3. Rinse out your shampoo.
Use warm water to wash out the shampoo. Warm water is safer on your hair than hot water is. Be careful not to tug on the strands if you run your fingers through it. When your hair feels ‘squeaky’, you’ve rinsed out all the shampoo.
1-4. Wring out your hair.
If your hair is sopping wet, any conditioner you try to apply will run right off and won’t stick long enough to affect your hair. If your hair is very short, you probably won’t have to do much wringing. If, however, you have long hair, spend a bit of time getting as much water out of it as you can.
1-5. Apply your conditioner.
Pour a bit of conditioner into the palm of your hand; the amount you need will vary depending on the length of your hair. A dime-sized amount is usually recommended for professional conditioners, while drug store brands may require more because they can be diluted. If your hair is very long, you may need a whole palm-full of conditioner. Run this through the mid-shafts of your hair, trying to apply it to every strand that you’re able. Work the conditioner toward the ends of your hair, as this is the part that is damaged (it’s the oldest). Putting conditioner near your scalp and roots can actually clog your follicles, and slow hair growth/increase oil production.
1-6. Let the conditioner set.
This step is slightly optional; the longer you wait and allow your conditioner to set, the more it will be able to do to improve the health of your hair. If you’re in a rush, you can rinse it out nearly immediately after, but it won’t make your hair as soft and shiny as it normally would. Try applying your conditioner, and then washing the rest of your body/face while it sets. Then when you’re finished (normally a minute or two later), you can rinse out your conditioner for maximum effect.
1-7. Rinse out the conditioner.
Assuming you’ve turned the water temperature back up for comfort’s sake, turn it back down as cold as you can handle it. As aforementioned, the cold water is healthier for your hair. Spend a few minutes rinsing out the conditioner; if your hair still feels ‘slimy’, then you haven’t gotten it all out. When your hair is smooth and no longer feels super slippery, then you’re set! Wring out your hair and you’re done conditioning.
2. Using a Leave-In Conditioner
2-1. Choose a leave-in conditioner for your hair type.
As with regular conditioner, there are many varieties of leave-in conditioner depending on your needs. There are two general styles of leave-in conditioner: cream and spray-on. The former variety is best for thick, long, or curly hair, as it weighs down the strands a bit. The latter variety is best for thin or straight hair, as it is a bit lighter-weight.
2-2. Shampoo and condition your hair.
Go about your regular hair treatment regimen. Leave-in conditioner does not need to be rinsed out (as the name suggests) but does need to be applied to damp hair. Use the aforementioned directions for washing and conditioning your hair, and then towel-dry it so that it is just damp.
2-3. Place a small amount of serum on the palm of your hand.
Most products will recommend a pea-sized amount for medium length hair of average thickness, but the amount will vary from person to person. You can always add more product to your hair, so begin with less than you think you will need.
2-4. Rub the product into your hair.
Rub your hands together to thin out the conditioner a bit, and then begin running it through the ends of your locks. As with regular conditioner, avoid getting it near your scalp or the roots of your hair; keep it on the most damaged (oldest) parts of your hair, typically from half the length downwards.
2-5. Comb through your hair.
Use a wide-tooth comb to brush your hair after applying the leave-in conditioner. This will spread the product out even further, and help to avoid clumps of the conditioner from making certain sections of your hair greasy while others are left dry.
3. Using a Deep Conditioner
3-1. Choose a deep conditioner.
Deep conditioners all have the same goal: to repair chronically dry/damaged hair. Therefore, there aren’t too many ‘types’ of deep conditioners to choose from, just different brands. Find a deep conditioner that meets your hair and budget needs.
3-2. Wet your hair.
Rinse through your hair with warm or cool water (the colder the better). You can choose to shampoo your hair first if you would like, but all you really need to do is to get all of your hair wet. When you’re finished wring it out, removing as much extra water as you can.
3-3. Apply the deep conditioner.
Scoop some of the conditioner out of the container with your hands, and apply a thick coating to your entire head. Focus most of the conditioner on the ends of your hair, but feel free to spread it all the way to your roots. Be sure to separate any large chunks of hair so that each strand gets a thorough coating.
3-4. Wait for it to set.
Apply a shower cap to your head to keep your hair off your clothes/away from your face. Follow the directions for your specific conditioner, and leave it to cure. Typically, it should take between 20-30 minutes for the conditioner to work its magic. If you want an added boost, you can set your hairdryer on ‘warm’ and heat up the conditioner as it sets.
3-5. Wash out the deep conditioner.
Remove the shower cap, and turn your water on as cold as you can handle it. Spend 3-5 minutes rinsing out all of the deep conditioner, being careful not to leave any extra to set in your hair. When your hair no longer feels ‘slimy’, you’ve likely removed all of the conditioner. At this point you are free to dry and style your hair as you wish.
Tips
Avoid using hot tools and chemicals on your hair on a regular basis, as these will damage your hair and require to use even more conditioner on a regular basis.
Use conditioner at least once a week. Do not use too much or on the scalp, especially if your hair gets oily easily.
Don't comb your hair when it is wet, as it is more slightly to break or get damaged. If you do prefer to comb it while it's wet, do so while the conditioner is still on your hair.

1,888 | How to Apply Contour Makeup | 1. Getting the Right Products
1-1. Start with foundation the color of your skin.
Using a foundation the same (or close) color as your skin evens your skin tone and provides a base you can build upon when you contour using your lightest and darkest shades. Contouring your face without first applying foundation is much more difficult, since skin tends to be uneven in color. Your face could end up looking patchy instead of smooth and contoured.
Use a foundation composed of the same material as the other products you'll be using; for example, use all cream products or all powder products, rather than mixing the two. Mixing textures can result in a caked-on look. The only exception is your finishing layer of powder, which you, either way, to help your look last longer.
If you're having trouble figuring out what color to get, try matching your foundation to the skin on your neck. Your neck skin tends to be a bit paler than your face, and matching your foundation to your neck will ensure your face doesn't end up looking darker when you're finished doing your makeup.
1-2. Get foundation a few shades lighter than your skin.
Facial contouring consists of highlighting places you want to stand out, and shading places you want to recede. For your highlighting product, you need a foundation that's about two shades paler than your base foundation.
Don't go much lighter than two shades, or your makeup won't look natural.
You can use a lighter concealer or eye shadow in place of foundation.
1-3. Choose a foundation a few shades darker than your skin.
The darker tone will be used to shade the parts of your face that you want to draw attention away from. You'll be creating strategic shadows that make your cheekbones appear sharper and your chin more narrow.
Don't go darker than two shades below your normal skin tone, or your makeup won't look natural.
Bronzer, darker eye shadow or darker concealer work as well as foundation. Just remember to make sure all your products are either cream or powder; don't mix the two.
1-4. Get a good blending brush.
Since your face will be wearing several different shades, it's important to get a good blending brush. If the different colors aren't well-blended your makeup will look unnatural. You want a big, bushy foundation brush or blending brush, rather than a smaller brush. Go for one with natural bristles to leave the softest-looking finish.
If you don't have a brush, the next best tool to use is your fingers. The warmth from your fingers will help the makeup blend smoothly. This is especially useful when you're working with the cream foundation.
2. Contouring Your Face
2-1. It is better to pull your hair away from your face.
Contouring makeup reaches up to your hairline at the top of your forehead, past your temples and down the sides of your face. Pull your hair away from your face so you'll be able to see what you're doing without it getting in the way.
2-2. Prep your face.
When you contour your face, you want to start with a completely blank canvas. Remove all your makeup, wash your face, and pat it dry with a towel. Exfoliate if necessary to remove dead skin, then apply moisturizer. Let your moisturizer soak in for several minutes before you apply your makeup.
Prepping is essential if you want a smooth, flawless finish. You don't want to go to the trouble of contouring your face, only to have your makeup smudge or look dirty.
2-3. Apply foundation in your regular skin tone.
Use your fingers or a foundation brush to apply a light layer of your normal foundation all over your face, stretching all the way to the top of your forehead and below your chin. Use a blending brush or your fingers to blend your foundation under your chin and around your neck so there won't be a line separating your face from your neck.
You may want to apply concealer at this stage as well. Focus on under-eye circles and any blemishes.
2-4. Apply the lighter foundation.
Take the foundation that's a few shades lighter than your normal skin tone. Use your finger or a clean foundation brush to apply a 1/2- inch to 1-inch stroke of foundation to the places on your face where the sun would naturally hit. To help you figure out where the sun would hit, stand in a well-lit room with overhead lighting and look at where it hits your face. Here's where you want to apply light foundation:
In the center of your forehead.
Along the top of your brow lines.
Along the bridge of your nose.
On the apples of your cheeks (to find them, smile).
On your cupid's bow (the section between the tip of your nose and the top of your lip).
In the center of your chin.
2-5. Apply the dark foundation.
Apply your contour in the shape of a 3, starting from your forehead, coming in just under your cheekbones and going down towards your chin. These are the places your face would naturally be shadowed from the sun. Here's where you want to apply the dark foundation:
Right below your hairline at the top of your forehead.
On the right and left sides of your forehead, near your hairline on either side.
Along the right and left sides of your nose.
In the hollows of your cheeks (to find them, suck your cheeks in).
Along your jawline on both sides, from your ears to the tip of your chin.
2-6. Blend your makeup well.
Use your fingers or the foundation brush to blend the colors for a natural finish. Take care not to spread the colors around too much; you want them to stay in the general area where you placed them. Make sure the edges are blended well so that there are no sharp divisions between the lighter and darker foundation.
Always blend your contour upward. After all the whole point of a contour is to lift your cheekbone up.
3. Finishing the Look
3-1. Consider adding highlighter.
If you want the light areas to stand out even more, add a highlighter product to enhance the look. Cream highlighter is slightly shimmery, so it catches the light more than regular foundation. Apply it in the exact same places where you applied the lighter foundation.
3-2. Consider applying blush.
If you feel your face looks a little wan without some pink color, apply a small amount of blush to the apples of your cheeks. Be sure to blend the blush well with the other products on your face.
3-3. Consider using a matte setting powder.
Setting powder is helpful to use when your products are cream-based. It helps to keep everything in place and gives the look a smooth finish. Use a clean powder brush to add a light coating of setting powder over your entire face.
3-4. Add shimmer for a night out.
If you're going out on the town, you may want to add some shimmer and shine. Choose a shimmery, translucent face powder an apply a light layer to your face, focusing on the highlighted areas. Apply a bit to your neck and chest as well.
3-5. Save your eye and lip makeup for last.
Make sure everything is completely blended and set before you start applying eye and lip makeup. Contouring is a bold look, so you may want to choose either heavy eye makeup or a bright lip, but not both.
3-6. Finished.
Tips
Be careful to blend along the edges of your jaw, otherwise it'll look like you're wearing a mask.
Makeup isn't about rules––it’s about experimenting and having fun with a look that complements your features.
If you're a beginner, use contouring with powder to start with, then move on to liquid.

It is better to pull your hair away from your face.\\nContouring makeup reaches up to your hairline at the top of your forehead, past your temples and down the sides of your face. Pull your hair away from your face so you'll be able to see what you're doing without it getting in the way.\\n2-2. Prep your face.\\nWhen you contour your face, you want to start with a completely blank canvas. Remove all your makeup, wash your face, and pat it dry with a towel. Exfoliate if necessary to remove dead skin, then apply moisturizer. Let your moisturizer soak in for several minutes before you apply your makeup.\\nPrepping is essential if you want a smooth, flawless finish. You don't want to go to the trouble of contouring your face, only to have your makeup smudge or look dirty.\\n2-3. Apply foundation in your regular skin tone.\\nUse your fingers or a foundation brush to apply a light layer of your normal foundation all over your face, stretching all the way to the top of your forehead and below your chin. Use a blending brush or your fingers to blend your foundation under your chin and around your neck so there won't be a line separating your face from your neck.\\nYou may want to apply concealer at this stage as well. Focus on under-eye circles and any blemishes.\\n2-4. Apply the lighter foundation.\\nTake the foundation that's a few shades lighter than your normal skin tone. Use your finger or a clean foundation brush to apply a 1/2- inch to 1-inch stroke of foundation to the places on your face where the sun would naturally hit. To help you figure out where the sun would hit, stand in a well-lit room with overhead lighting and look at where it hits your face. Here's where you want to apply light foundation:\\nIn the center of your forehead.\\nAlong the top of your brow lines.\\nAlong the bridge of your nose.\\nOn the apples of your cheeks (to find them, smile).\\nOn your cupid's bow (the section between the tip of your nose and the top of your lip).\\nIn the center of your chin.\\n2-5. Apply the dark foundation.\\nApply your contour in the shape of a 3, starting from your forehead, coming in just under your cheekbones and going down towards your chin. These are the places your face would naturally be shadowed from the sun. Here's where you want to apply the dark foundation:\\nRight below your hairline at the top of your forehead.\\nOn the right and left sides of your forehead, near your hairline on either side.\\nAlong the right and left sides of your nose.\\nIn the hollows of your cheeks (to find them, suck your cheeks in).\\nAlong your jawline on both sides, from your ears to the tip of your chin.\\n2-6. Blend your makeup well.\\nUse your fingers or the foundation brush to blend the colors for a natural finish. Take care not to spread the colors around too much; you want them to stay in the general area where you placed them. Make sure the edges are blended well so that there are no sharp divisions between the lighter and darker foundation. \\nAlways blend your contour upward. After all the whole point of a contour is to lift your cheekbone up.\\n3. Finishing the Look\\n3-1. Consider adding highlighter.\\nIf you want the light areas to stand out even more, add a highlighter product to enhance the look. Cream highlighter is slightly shimmery, so it catches the light more than regular foundation. Apply it in the exact same places where you applied the lighter foundation.\\n3-2. Consider applying blush.\\nIf you feel your face looks a little wan without some pink color, apply a small amount of blush to the apples of your cheeks. Be sure to blend the blush well with the other products on your face.\\n3-3. Consider using a matte setting powder.\\nSetting powder is helpful to use when your products are cream-based. It helps to keep everything in place and gives the look a smooth finish. Use a clean powder brush to add a light coating of setting powder over your entire face.\\n3-4. Add shimmer for a night out.\\nIf you're going out on the town, you may want to add some shimmer and shine. Choose a shimmery, translucent face powder an apply a light layer to your face, focusing on the highlighted areas. Apply a bit to your neck and chest as well.\\n3-5. Save your eye and lip makeup for last.\\nMake sure everything is completely blended and set before you start applying eye and lip makeup. Contouring is a bold look, so you may want to choose either heavy eye makeup or a bright lip, but not both.\\n3-6. Finished.\\n\\nTips\\nBe careful to blend along the edges of your jaw, otherwise it'll look like you're wearing a mask.\\nMakeup isn't about rules––it’s about experimenting and having fun with a look that complements your features.\\nIf you're a beginner, use contouring with powder to start with, then move on to liquid.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Contouring your face helps define your features, creating the appearance of higher cheekbones and a slimmer nose and chin.

1,889 | How to Apply Cream Blush | 1. Preparing Your Face
1-1. Apply your moisturizer and concealer.
First, apply a moisturizer with SPF, choosing a moisturizer suited for your skin type. Then, apply concealer to the dark circles on your face and any blemishes, dabbing the concealer in with your middle finger until it is blended in with your skin.
If you're using concealer to cover circles under your eyes, use a concealer with a peachy-orange tone. If your skin is lighter, it should be more towards the peach end, and if it's darker, your concealer should be a deeper orange. Then, set the concealer with a translucent powder.
1-2. Apply foundation to your skin.
Choose a natural looking foundation, and apply it to your face with a brush, sponge or your fingers. Make sure you choose a foundation that is similar to your skin tone, and blend it in with your fingers or a beauty blender. Use a damp beauty blender sponge so it doesn't remove any of the foundation from your face.
At this point, you can apply another layer of concealer for any blemishes that are really stubborn, but make sure you don't cake on your makeup.
1-3. Save the powder until after the blush.
If you apply a cream blush after you have applied powder to your face, the blush will not blend in well to your cheeks. Instead of applying powder to your face before you apply blush, apply your blush first and then finish with a small dusting of loose powder. This will help your blush cling to your face, as well as create a more matte finish on your face, which will remove some of the dewy look.
If you have a naturally dry face, and don't want to remove any of the glow or dew from the cream blush, then don't apply a powder finish. Powder can be skipped in the makeup process -- it's really a personal preference.
2. Applying Cream Blush
2-1. Choose your method of application.
There are several different ways to apply cream blush. Any of them can be used to apply the blush effectively, so it just depends on your preference. You can apply cream blush in three ways:
Cheek highlighter brush: This brush has soft, flat bristles and you can apply blush by dabbing the brush into your cream blush, and then tapping it onto the apple of your cheeks.
Beauty blender sponge: You can apply your blush with this tool by gently swiping it in an upward motion on the apple of your cheeks. A sponge can also be used to blend your blush into the skin.
Your fingers: This may be the easiest way to apply your blush as you will dip your fingers in the blush and then swipe it onto your cheeks.
2-2. Locate the apples of your cheeks and your cheekbones.
You can choose to apply blush to either of these areas. To locate the apples of your cheeks, first smile. The area of your cheeks that is raised while you are smiling is the apple of your cheek. To find your cheekbones, suck in your cheeks, making somewhat of a fish face. The area on your cheekbones where it experiences the indentation is where you will apply your blush.
Most people tend to apply blush to the apples of their cheeks, but you can apply to your cheekbones instead if you desire a different look.
If you have high cheekbones and a hollow in your cheeks, applying to the apple of your cheeks can help soften your features and make your face look less angular.
If you have a rounder face, applying blush to your cheekbones instead of the apples in your cheeks can help your face look slimmer. Make sure you stay on the high part of the indentation, where you can feel the lower part of your cheekbone -- you don't want your blush to rest too low on your face.
2-3. Make sure to apply your blush in the right area.
You can choose between the apple of your cheeks or your cheekbones. If you're applying it to your cheekbones, sweep it back toward your hairline. Avoid applying the blush too close to the center of your face; it shouldn't go past the smile lines on either side of your nose.
If you're using blush in a neutral color, you can apply it to both your cheekbones and the apple of your cheeks.
2-4. Apply your blush with your fingers for an easy application.
Dip your middle and ring finger into your blush, making sure they are clean first. Gently dab your fingers onto the apples of your cheeks or your cheekbones. If you feel your blush is too bright, continuing tapping it and blending it in with your fingers until you have your desired color.
If you feel like you put on too much cream blush, just rub the area with your fingertips and it will start to lighten.
2-5. Apply blush with a brush to concentrate the color.
Tap your brush into your cream blush for a few seconds until you have enough blush on your brush. Then, stipple the blush onto your cheekbones or apples of your cheeks. Blend out any excess blush with your beauty blender or your fingers.
If you feel you have picked up too much blush, you can tap the brush on the back of your hand to remove some of the product.
Stippling your brush just means you are creating a pattern of small dots, that when formed together look like a solid color or shading.
2-6. Apply blush with a beauty sponge for the most blended look.
Take the side of your sponge, and dip it in your cream blush. Then, apply your blush to your cheekbones or apples by swiping the sponge onto your cheeks. You can then flip your sponge to the clean side and smooth out your blush by blending (in a circular motion) or dabbing it in with your sponge.
3. Choosing the Right Blush
3-1. Understand the difference between cream and powder blush.
The two different types of blushes will help you achieve different looks, so it's really a personal preference which one you use. A powder blush will give you a more finished look, and can be applied with a large makeup brush. A cream blush gives you a more dewy, outdoorsy finish and is applied with a brush or your fingers.
When applying cream blush, always use a smaller amount at first. You can go back and add more blush to your cheeks, but it's harder to remove excess blush than it is to add more. If you have accidentally added to much blush to your cheeks, you can blend it in or you can apply a light layer of foundation on top of it to conceal some of the color.
3-2. Choose the right shade of blush.
If you want your blush to look natural, you'll need to choose the right shade of blush. If you really want your cheeks to pop, then you can choose a blush in any color. To find the most natural blush color, pinch your cheeks and try to match the color created on your cheeks with a blush color. If you are having trouble choosing the right blush color, you can follow this general guide for skin tones:
Fair/ivory skin: Choose a baby pink or pale pink for your blush color. This is the most natural look for very fair skin as other shades can look orangey. For fair skin that is a little bit darker you can use a peach blush in a satin or sheer texture. If you want to go a little more dramatic for a night out, you can use a plum colored blush in a translucent shade. Choose a plum colored blush that is a shade or two darker than your lip color.
Medium skin: Wear a blush that is an apricot shade, as this will bring out the natural warm colors in your skin. You can also wear a pinky-berry color; because a pale pink looks good on fair skin, a medium pink will look good on medium skin. For a more dramatic look, choose a muted mauve (pale purple) color that has a hint of plum.
Olive skin: Look for warm tones like an orangey-peach, that will hide the green undertones in the skin. Wear a rose or bronze colored blush for a more dramatic look that will add warmth to your skin and help boost the olive color. If you have fair olive skin you can use these same colors, just don't apply as much blush.
Dark skin: Go for bold, highly pigmented shades like raisin, brick, and cranberry. For a dramatic look, choose a bright tangerine that will be pretty and subtle on dark skin.
3-3. Know the benefits of cream blush.
Cream blush differs from powder blush in that it is good for dry skin as powder blush can enhance your dryness. If you have aging skin, cream blush will give you a more youthful look and adds dewiness to your skin that people tend to lose as they age. In cold climates or during cold seasons, cream blush adds moisture to your cheeks that is drawn out with the cold air so it keeps your face from looking as dry.
Using cream blush in a very humid environment can be difficult because it can make your face look even more oily. If you live in an area where you experience lots of humidity or you tend to sweat a lot during the day, using a powder blush might be better because you won't need the extra moisture added to your skin.
Tips
Gone overboard with the blush? Blending a bit of powder or foundation over the area tones things down.
It's better to build up blush color little by little than trying to correct an overload.
Choose a cream blush that is similar in color to your natural blushing hue.

1,890 | How to Apply Cream Contour | 1. Selecting Your Cream Contour
1-1. Use a palette cream contour to easily find the right shade.
If you aren’t sure what shade of cream contour to choose and are unable to test the products before purchasing, palettes are a great option because you will have a selection of contouring shades all in one product. In most cases, palettes of cream contour contain both contour and highlighting options.
Cream contours are also available in single-color sticks. While stick cream contours tend to be easier to apply for beginners, you will need to purchase two cream contour sticks if you want to highlight as well.
Keep in mind that with a cream contour palette, you will need a contour brush to apply the product to your face. With a stick, you can forego the brush and apply directly.
1-2. Pick a cream contour that is 1 to 2 shades darker than your skin tone.
When shopping for a cream contour, choose a cream that is only 1 to 2 shades darker than your skin tone so that you can create a more natural contour look. It can be helpful to first look at the foundation that you use to determine the shade that is an exact match to your skin tone, then select a contour cream that is slightly darker.
If you are shopping at a retailer that provides testers of the cream contours available, you can test the product by swiping a small amount of product across the inside of your forearm. Blend with your finger or with a disposable blending sponge if they are available.
Your goal is to mimic the actual shadows of your face, so you want to avoid any product that is too far from your natural skin tone, or that has any shimmer in it.
If you are unsure about your foundation shade, learning how to choose makeup for your skin tone will help you find the right foundation to create your base, and give you the starting point for selecting your cream contour shade.
1-3. Test your cream contour shade.
While the arm test is generally effective and more hygienic when you are testing a product in a store, the only way to truly confirm if a contour shade is correct is to apply it to your face. Test out your cream contour shade by applying a small amount of product along your cheekbone. Use a blending brush or sponge to blend away the harsh lines. If the shade is right for your skin tone, the product should blend seamlessly into your skin, leaving a subtle shadow effect.
Because some retailers do not provide testers of their cream contour products, you may need to experiment with different shades before finding the right one.
2. Creating a Base
2-1. Start with clean, moisturized skin.
For best results, wash your face with your usual daily face wash. Dry completely with a clean towel. Then, apply your everyday lotion before applying any makeup products. Let your skin fully absorb the lotion.
Avoid using an exfoliating face wash directly before applying contour, as this may irritate your skin and cause redness or blotching.
2-2. Prepare your skin with a makeup primer.
If using primer is part of your usual makeup routine, apply primer in an even layer to your cheeks, forehead, and chin. If you use an under-eye primer, apply it under your eyes at this time as well.
You can skip this step if using primer is not part of your normal makeup routine. However, primer can help you apply your foundation evenly and make your makeup last longer, so you might want to consider finding a primer that works for your skin type.
2-3. Apply your foundation and concealer.
If you normally wear a liquid foundation, apply this first as you usually do. If you have any blemishes or need to color-correct, apply your concealer at this point as well. Make sure that you blend your foundation and/or concealer completely to create an even base across your face.
If you don’t typically wear foundation but want more coverage, learning how to apply foundation can help you create a flawless base for your cream contour.
If your foundation does not provide enough coverage, using concealer can help hide under eye circles, acne, or discoloration.
When using a cream contour, avoid using a powder foundation as your base. Applying cream contour on top of powder can make the products lumpy and congealed, something you definitely want to avoid!
3. Applying Cream Contour
3-1. Draw contour lines down your cheekbones.
If you are using a liquid or palette contour, dip the contour brush into the product so that the tip of the brush is covered but not dripping. If you are using a cream contour stick, simply remove the cap and twist to expose the cream. Use the wider side of your brush or stick and draw a line of product down your cheekbones. Start at the top of your cheekbones (next to your ear) and follow your cheekbone line down your face, twisting or angling your brush or stick so that the line gets thinner as you go down. Stop just below the apple of your cheeks.
If you have a hard time twisting the brush, apply an even thin line all the way down and then go back to your starting point and add to make the line thicker, tapering into your original line as you go down your cheek.
If you are using a stick cream contour, start with the stick flat on your cheek and angle up as you move down so that only the rim of the stick is touching your cheek closer to your mouth.
To help you figure out where to stop drawing your cheek contour line, visualize a straight line down from the outside corner of your eyes. This is usually about where your contour line should stop.
3-2. Map out your jawline contour lines.
With your contour brush or stick, apply a thin line of your cream contour along your jawline. Start at the beginning of your jawbone (close to your neck) and follow your jawbone inward, stopping on either sides of the start of your chin.
To help you figure out where to stop your contour line, visualize a line going straight down from the edges of your mouth and stop at this point.
3-3. Apply your cream contour along your hairline.
To sculpt your face even more, use the thick side of your brush or stick to apply your cream contour along your hairline at your temples, as well as the right and left sides of your forehead. When applying to your forehead, stop just as your hairline starts to curve in to the center.
Remember when applying contour along your hairline that you want to mimic the natural shadows of your face. If your face shape is such that you don’t get a natural shadow along your hairline at your temples and the sides of your forehead, you might want to skip this step to keep your look as natural as possible.
3-4. Make your nose contour lines to contour your nose.
If you want to make your nose look thinner, longer, or straighter, draw a thin line of cream contour on either side of your nose. Using a thin brush (such as a concealer brush), start on the bone at the top of your nose, just below the inner corners of your eyes. Draw a line with your cream contour moving down towards the end of your nose on each side.
If you do not wish to alter the appearance of your nose, skip this step.
3-5. Blend your cream contour into your face.
Using a blending brush or sponge (such as a beauty blender), slowly blend all your contour lines into your face until there are no harsh lines left. For a more stark, chiseled look, blend just until the contour lines are blurred and fade seamlessly into your skin. If you want a more natural contour, continue to blend your contour lines until you have reached your desired effect.
Tips
To help you draw your contour line, try sucking in your cheeks. This will emphasize your cheekbones and help you identify where to apply your cream contour product.
To emphasize your features even more, try highlighting along with your cream contour.

1,891 | How to Apply Cream Foundation | 1. Choosing an Applicator Tool
1-1. Use a tapered foundation brush to get even, full-face coverage.
A tapered brush is one of the best tools for applying cream foundation because it makes it easier to get even coverage. Using a brush to apply cream foundation may also make it easier to get even coverage in areas like your eyelids, around your nostrils, and along your hairline.
Dab a small amount of cream foundation on the brush and then begin spreading it over your face using short strokes.
Keep going until you have the desired coverage.
1-2. Use a beauty blender sponge for sheer, buildable coverage.
Beauty sponges are also excellent tools for getting even coverage with your cream foundation. These sponges are dense and curved with a pointed tip on the end. You can use the curved part of the sponge for larger areas of your face and the pointed part of the sponge for small areas, such as your eyelids and the areas around your lips.
Dab a small amount of foundation on the sponge and then use short strokes to get even coverage.
Smooth the sponge over your skin until you get the coverage you want.
1-3. Use your fingers for controlled spot application.
If you don’t have any special tools for applying makeup, then you can also use your fingers to apply the cream foundation. Dab a small amount of cream foundation onto a few of your fingertips and then begin applying the foundation to your face.
Use your fingertips to blend the foundation evenly over your face until you are happy with the coverage.
2. Using Good Technique
2-1. Wash and moisturize your face.
Before you apply foundation, make sure to wash your face thoroughly and apply moisturizer. This helps the foundation go on smoothly and it may also improve your results. Follow your usual skin care routine to prep your skin.
You may also want to apply a thin layer of face primer so your foundation goes on smoother and lasts longer.
2-2. Warm up a bit of foundation in your hand.
Warming the foundation in the palm of your hand helps it to go on smoothly. Try applying a small amount into the palm or back of your hand and then dab into it with your brush, sponge, or fingertips.
Avoid dipping your fingers directly into your foundation so you don't get germs in it. Instead, use a clean spatula to scoop some foundation out of the container and place it on a palette.
2-3. Start from the center of your face to get even coverage.
Applying foundation from the center of your face going outwards ensures even coverage. Use your tool or fingertips to begin applying the foundation.
2-4. Apply some cream foundation along the sides of your nose.
Apply a dab of cream foundation on both sides of your nose, and then spread the foundation out towards the edges of your face to cover your cheeks. Spreading the foundation out from the sides of your nose will help you get even coverage on your cheeks.
2-5. Dab some foundation above your nose.
Next, apply foundation just above your nose and spread it out over your forehead. Dab some foundation above your nose and then sweep the foundation up and out towards the edges of your face. Keep going until you have covered your entire forehead evenly.
2-6. Fill in the other areas of your face with foundation.
Dab some foundation onto any areas of your face where you have not yet applied foundation, like your chin. Then, begin spreading the foundation out and away from the center of your face to cover these areas evenly.
2-7. Blend well.
No matter how you apply the cream foundation, make sure to blend it well. Go over areas where you applied the foundation multiple times to ensure that the foundation is well blended. Then, check in the mirror for any splotchy or patchy areas and blend these areas as needed.
A beauty sponge or your fingers are both great for blending the cream foundation.
3. Getting Your Ideal Coverage
3-1. Blend with moisturizer for light coverage.
If you don’t want a heavy layer of foundation on your face, then try mixing a small amount of your foundation with an equal amount of moisturizer. Blend these together and then apply the foundation/moisturizer mixture to your face.
3-2. Apply in thin layers to build up coverage.
If you are unsure about how much foundation you want to apply, then try applying your foundation in layers. Start with just a light layer of cream foundation and then add another layer or two if the coverage is not heavy enough for you.
3-3. Add foundation to areas that require more coverage.
You can also apply a thin layer for all over coverage and then go back in and apply more cream foundation to areas that need more coverage. For example, if you have any redness, dark circles, or blemishes, then you could apply a little extra cream foundation to these areas.
3-4. Use powder foundation for additional matte coverage (optional).
Cream foundation provides moderate to full coverage depending on how you apply it, so you may not need to use a powder foundation at all. However, if desired, you can apply a layer of powder foundation after you finish applying your cream foundation. Use a brush to sweep the powder foundation over your skin.
Powder foundation can help to set the cream foundation and provide matte coverage as well.
Tips
Make sure to test the foundation color on a small area of your face before using it all over. If you blend a small dab on one part of your face and you cannot distinguish the edge of the color from the rest of your skin, then the color is a good match for your skin.[14]

If you are torn between two different shades, then go with the darker of the two. Using a shade darker than your actual skin tone will be less noticeable than using a shade that is lighter than your skin tone.[16]

1,892 | How to Apply Crepe Hair | 1. Selecting and Preparing the Crepe Hair
1-1. Choose your style of facial hair.
Crepe hair can be the perfect addition to a character’s look, but it is important to know what shape of facial hair you want. The more popular styles are mustaches, sideburns, and beards. The application process can be applied to many styles, so don’t let these suggestions limit you.
If you work better by having a visual, then you can print out a makeup chart from online, and map out where you are going to put the crepe hair. This can be especially helpful if you are using it alongside other makeup effects.
1-2. Purchase crepe hair in the desired color and length.
You can purchase crepe hair online with retailers like Amazon, or in person at costume stores. Crepe hair is available in a variety of colors and is often made from real wool. It comes in packages of tightly woven braids that will straighten out to three times the packaged length.
Real hair is often a combination of colors. So if you want a hyper-realistic look, then think about blending a few different colors together.
1-3. Grab one end of the crepe hair and gently pull the braid apart.
The crepe hair is braided together with several strands of twine. This motion will unravel the twine that is holding the braid together. You can discard all of the twine once you have the braid unraveled.
1-4. Cut the bundle of hair to an approximate desired length.
Cutting the hair to a more manageable length will make styling the hair easier. If you want to use the entire length you purchased, then don’t worry about cutting it.
1-5. Fluff and separate the strands as desired for your character look.
If you want a curly beard for your character look, then you need to separate and fluff the strands of the crepe hair before applying it to your face.
1-6. Straighten the hair by wetting and drying it 24 hours before application.
If you need straight hair to complete your character look, then you can straighten it by submerging it in water for 30 seconds. The water will help uncurl the strands and straighten out. After submerging, lay the bundle out on a towel to dry. The crepe hair must be completely dry before applying it.
Submerging the crepe hair in water is an effective, but time-consuming process. So if you are using this method to straighten the crepe hair, then you are going to want to do this at least one day before application.
1-7. Use an iron to stream press the hair if you need to straighten it quickly.
Steam pressing the crepe hair in small sections will work out any unwanted curls or waves. Just make sure to only work on one section of the crepe hair at a time, otherwise, it may not straighten.
You can also weigh down one end of the section on your ironing board and pull it until it is taught. This will make steaming and straightening it easier.
Using a steam iron is the quickest way to straighten any length of crepe hair, but also the most tedious if you are not experienced using a steam iron.
2. Applying the Crepe Hair
2-1. Wash and dry your face.
You are going to want a clean surface to apply the crepe hair to. Just make sure that your skin is completely dry before applying it.
2-2. Put on stage makeup before applying the crepe hair.
If you are planning to use any stage makeup, then apply the makeup and let it set. Once the makeup is set, you can then begin to apply the crepe hair.
2-3. Separate the hair into small sections, no wider than 1 inch (2.5 cm).
Working with small sections will give you more control when adhering the crepe hair, and give you a more natural look.
2-4. Begin application at the bottom of your face and work your way upward.
When you are applying the crepe hair, you will generally want to start from the lower portions of your face and work your way up.
For hair around the chin, you will want to start applying the crepe hair in a line underneath your chin and then work in thin layers up from that point.
For a moustache, layer short tufts of crepe hair on your upper lip. These tufts should be added in thin layers that work upwards towards your nose.
To create a beard, start with a line of crepe hair that stretches from ear to ear, going across your neck, and work upwards in thin layers from that point.
For sideburns, begin the first layer of crepe hair horizontally along your jaw, and then work in thin layers upwards along the side of your face towards your natural hairline. Then repeat this for the other side of your face, and try your best to make the sides as even as possible.
2-5. Use a small brush to apply spirit gum or liquid latex to your skin.
Try and apply the adhesive in small sections — working from the bottom of your look, upwards. You don’t want to cover large portions of skin with the liquid adhesive because it might dry or adhere unwanted portions of crepe hair.
Be careful to not put the liquid latex or spirit gum close to your eyes. If you need to apply crepe hair near the area around your eyes, then use an eyelash adhesive instead.
If you are using spirit gum, then you will want to increase the tackiness of it. After brushing the spirit gum onto your skin, use your finger to gently tap the area where you applied the spirit gum.
2-6. Press the prepared section of crepe hair into the applied adhesive.
Not every strand will stick to the adhesive, so do your best to remove ones that are not sticking.
2-7. Repeat the application process until the desired area of skin is covered.
To achieve a more realistic look, make sure to apply the crepe hair in thin layers, and remember to build upwards on your face.
If the crepe hair is going on your face, then think about your natural bone structure beneath your face and use it as a guide for the hair placement. This will help create a realistic structure of hair growth.
If the crepe hair is going on areas other than your face, then it is not as vital to think about bone structure, rather than using your visual judgement for what placement looks most natural.
2-8. Use scissors to trim the applied crepe hair as desired.
Now that you have applied all of the crepe hair, it might seem overly bushy or longer than you intended. You can use scissors to trim the crepe hair into the style you envisioned.
If you begin to notice any unwanted bald spots or patches, then make sure to fill the spots in and then trim if necessary.
3. Removing the Crepe Hair
3-1. Pull off as much of the crepe hair as you can without hurting yourself.
You want your skin as exposed as possible to remove the adhesive. If you are unable to get any of the crepe hair off, then trim it down with a pair of scissors.
3-2. Peel off the liquid latex with your fingers.
Liquid latex adheres to your skin like a layer of paint, and can easily be pulled off. Work from any raised edges that might have occurred from pulling off the crepe hair, or use your fingernail to lift the outermost edges of the liquid latex. Just know that if you have any small hairs underneath it, it will most likely pull those out.
3-3. Dissolve the spirit gum using spirit gum remover.
Spirit gum cannot be pulled off your skin; it needs to be dissolved. You can pour the remover onto cotton balls or a soft cloth, and then wipe away at the spirit gum until it dissolves and the remaining crepe hair has fallen off.
You may need to soak the cotton balls or cloth a few times with the remover to get all of the spirit gum completely dissolved.
An alternative to spirit gum remover would be rubbing alcohol, but the remover will dissolve the spirit gum faster.
3-4. Wash your face with soap and warm water.
Your skin might be a little red or irritated from the adhesive and the remover. So you are going to want to clean your pores thoroughly with soap to remove any remaining residue.
Tips
Wear old clothes as this process can become messy, especially if this is your first time applying crepe hair.[35]
X
Research source
If you have to shave the area you wish to cover in crepe hair, then do so the night before to avoid getting skin irritation from the liquid adhesive.[36]

Research source
Warnings
If you have any allergies to liquid latex or spirit gum, then do not use those adhesives. To test if you are allergic, put a small amount on the inside of your wrist and leave it there for 30 minutes. If this does not cause a reaction, you are most likely not allergic. The typical allergic reaction is a bad itch similar to an insect bite. And if at any point you begin to feel discomfort while applying the crepe hair, then stop the process and remove the liquid adhesive as instructed.[37]
X
Research source
Do not put the liquid latex or spirit gum close to your eyes. If you need to do work near your eyes, then use eyelash adhesive. Eyelash adhesive is a liquid latex, but only has trace amounts of ammonia which makes it safe to use around the eye area.[38]

This can be achieved by simply wearing a distinctive costume, or it can also involve more complicated makeup effects. One effect that can seem intimidating is crepe hair — a bundle of dyed wool that can be cut and styled as needed for costuming.

1,893 | How to Apply Crest 3D White Strips: Step-by-Step Instructions for a Radiant Smile (with or without LED Light) | 1. Peel one strip off the plastic sleeve.
Use the pre-cut slit to pull open a packet of strips.
You’ll see 2 White Strips stuck to a clear plastic sleeve—a short strip for your lower teeth and a longer strip for your top teeth. Pull either one off first (you’ll come back for the other one later).
Wait to lift the strip from the liner until you’re fully ready to stick it on your teeth.
to apply White Strips. They’ll stick better if your teeth aren’t glossy and smooth after a brush.
If you need to brush beforehand to remove food particles, use a wet toothbrush with no toothpaste or use a fluoride-free toothpaste.
to make sure the strips stick to your teeth and not food particles or plaque.
2. Face the sticky side of the strip toward your teeth.
Smiling or baring your teeth can make them easier to access.
Stand in front of a mirror to help you guide the strip to the right spot. The sticky gel side that goes on your teeth is the same side that was stuck to the plastic sleeve and contains the whitening agents.
Inhale through your teeth a few times or dab them with a clean tissue to dry them (the strips stick better to dry teeth).
3. Align the edge of the strip with your gum line.
Be extra careful not to let the strip overlap onto your gums.
Hold the ends of the strip and raise or lower the strip so the top edge is at or slightly away from your gum line. Make sure the center of the strip is right over the space between your front two teeth.
The whitening ingredients on the strip can irritate your gums’ soft tissue.
To help center the strip, pinch it at the middle to create a small crease, then pull the strip flat again. Center the crease on your front teeth.
4. Press down and fold the strip around your teeth.
Hold the strip against your teeth with your fingers for 2-3 seconds.
Start in the center of the strip, then press the ends to make sure the strip is secure. Fold the excess over your teeth and press it against the back of your teeth. Press firmly to create a strong bond between the strip and your teeth.
Use your fingernail to press the strip into the crevices between your teeth for the most even coverage.
Apply the second strip the same way after you’ve secured the first one to your teeth.
A strong stick keeps the whitening agents trapped against your teeth.
5. Leave the strips on for up to 30 minutes.
Check the directions on the box for the exact timing.
Some strips for sensitive teeth might have a shorter application time, while products like the Supreme FlexFit strips go on for 60 minutes. Wait to smoke, eat, or drink until after you’ve removed the strips.
Sit back and relax while the strips are in. There’s no recommended time of day to wear them, so go about your regular routine until it’s time to take them out.
If you’re wearing high-adhesive strips like Classic Vivid or Professional Effects, you can drink water without loosening the strips or swallowing the whitening gel.
Do not wear the strips for longer than the recommended time in the instructions. Overexposure to the bleaching agents could cause sensitivity or tooth damage.
6. Use the LED light if your kit came with one.
Turn on your LED light after 30 minutes if your product came with one.
Place it in your mouth and grip the curved groove gently with your teeth. After 10 minutes, remove the light and turn it off (some models will beep to let you know when it’s time).
If your treatment did not come with an LED light, skip this step and remove your strips.
The light only works for a certain number of uses, depending on the strips you bought. You’ll have to buy a new light to use it in the future.
7. Pull the strips off your teeth and toss them.
Find the edge of the strips with your fingernail to peel them off easily.
Toss them in the garbage—they might still have a little bleaching agent on them that could stain clothing or irritate your skin. Wash your hands afterward to get any traces of bleaching residue off your fingers.
Do not reuse White Strips.
The strips are strong and should come off in one piece without tearing or breaking.
8. Rinse or brush your teeth to remove the sticky residue.
Swish clean water or use a soft toothbrush (with or without toothpaste).
Use lukewarm water in case you’re experiencing some slight tooth or gum sensitivity. If you’re on the go or don’t have time to brush, leave the gel on your teeth—it’s nontoxic and will come off quickly.
Wait a few hours to eat or drink anything that may stain your teeth, like coffee or red wine. Your teeth are more prone to staining after a whitening treatment.
9. Apply the strips daily to complete the treatment.
Read the directions for your specific product (most last 10-14 days).
For example, Classic Vivid White comes with 10 sets of strips, whereas the Glamorous White comes with 14. Don’t worry about counting the days—if you’re wearing 1 set daily, you’ll know the treatment is done when you run out of strips.
White Strips are meant to be used every day for the best results.
You’ll start seeing results after 2-3 days, even if the full whitening isn’t complete until after the treatment is finished.
It’s OK if you miss a day—the impact on your results will be small as long as you’re wearing the strips consistently afterwards.
10. Apply White Strips twice a day for faster whitening.
Wear up to 2 sets per day, back-to-back or separated by a few hours.
Wear the strips for the full 30 minutes (or other recommended time) both times. Check the instructions on the box for how frequently you are able to use the strips. If you're unsure, once a day is plenty.
Only double up on strips if you want to cut down the number of days you have to wear them.
Your chances of side effects, like tooth and gum sensitivity, increase when you wear strips more than once per day.
Do not wear more than 2 sets of White Strips per day.
11. Do a full whitening treatment up to twice a year.
It's normal for the whitening effects to start fading after 6 months.
Almost all Crest strips are safe to use 2 times a year, either back-to-back or separated by a few months. If you’re using the Supreme Flexfit White Strips, only use 1 box per year.
Products that are safe to use twice a year include 3D White Classic Vivid, Glamorous White, 1 Hour Express, Gentle Routine, Shimmer White, Professional Effects, and 3D White Whitestrips with Light strips.
Practice good dental hygiene and use products like whitening toothpaste or baking soda to keep your teeth white between White Strip treatments.
Prevent tooth stains by limiting dark drinks and foods, avoiding citrus after whitening treatments, and quitting smoking.

1,894 | How to Apply Curd on Hair | 1. Making a Hair Mask
1-1. Apply curd by itself for a dose of hydration.
Use 1 cup (240 mL) of curd on your hair whenever you want to deeply nourish the follicles. Be sure to stir up the curb before you put it on to avoid clumps. Curd packs your hair full of vitamins, making it soft, shiny, and hydrated.
While you can technically use curd by itself, mixing it with other ingredients helps nourish your hair.
Although you can use your hands to apply the curd, it's better to comb it through your hair. This will help you evenly distribute the curd, and it makes less of a mess. Be sure to wash the comb afterwards.
1-2. Mix curd with egg and mayonnaise to promote hair growth.
Grab a medium-sized bowl, and add 1 egg, 1 cup (240 mL) of plain curd, and 1 cup (240 mL) of mayonnaise. Mix the ingredients together with a spoon until it is a smooth paste.
This combination works great to strengthen your hair, and it may make your hair grow faster.
1-3. Use honey with your curd to make your hair soft and shiny.
Scoop 1 cup (240 mL) of curd and pour 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) of honey into a small bowl. Use a metal or wooden spoon to mix up the ingredients to create your hair mask.
This is a great idea if your hair is dry and damaged and you want to revitalize the follicles.
Honey is a great natural moisturizer that helps reduce dryness. However, keep in mind that honey can lighten or fade your hair color, especially if you use if frequently.
1-4. Add banana to your curd to deeply condition your hair and reduce frizz.
Chop up 1 ripe banana into small chunks. Then, place the chunks in your blender. Add 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of curd and 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of honey into the blender, and use a medium speed setting to mix up your ingredients. Blend until this becomes a smooth paste. Then, use a mesh strainer to get rid of any large chunks.
For best results, you want a completely smooth paste.
Banana and honey are both great moisturizing agents, and they also eliminate frizz and dullness. Remember, honey can lighten your hair color, so use it with caution.
If you have extremely dry hair, add 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of coconut oil for a deeply moisturizing option.
1-5. Use black pepper, vinegar, lemon, egg, fenugreek, or Besan for dandruff.
Curd in general works great as a dandruff treatment because of the vitamin B5 and proteins. However, you can mix other ingredients into your mask for a more effective anti-dandruff treatment. Use 1 added ingredient for mild dandruff, or try 2 for severe dandruff.
To use black pepper, mix 1 to 2 teaspoons (4.9 to 9.9 mL) of black pepper to 1 cup (240 mL) of curd, then apply it as a hair mask.
If you want to use vinegar, stir 1 to 2 teaspoons (4.9 to 9.9 mL) of vinegar into 1 cup (240 mL) of curd to create a hair mask that will leave your hair shiny. Keep in mind that the mask may have a strong smell, but you can wash away the scent with shampoo once the treatment is over.
When using lemon, add 1 to 2 teaspoons (4.9 to 9.9 mL) of lemon to 1 cup (240 mL) of curd. Use caution with lemon, however, as it can lighten your hair color, especially if you use it frequently.
To use egg, simply mix 1 egg into 1 cup (240 mL) of curd to create a moisturizing mask.
If you want to use fenugreek seeds, soak 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) overnight, then grind them up. Mix them into 1 cup (240 mL) of curd to form a paste, which you can use as a mask.
When using Besan flour, mix 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) into 1 cup (240 mL) of curd to make a paste, then smooth it onto your hair.
1-6. Store your mask in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
After you make your mask, you can use it right away. If you don't want to use it right then, scoop the mask into an airtight container, such as a glass jar or Tupperware. Then, place the mask in the fridge so the curd does not go bad.
Use your hair mask within 2 days.
You can do this for any of the masks above. However, blend the banana before you use it for optimum freshness.
2. Using the Hair Mask
2-1. Apply your hair mask
To use curd on your hair, scoop up the mask with a spoon or your fingers, and rub it over your hair starting at the roots and working toward the ends. Cover the front, back, and sides with your mask so all of your hair is thoroughly saturated.
Be careful not to oversaturate your hair. While you want all of the follicles coated in the mask, using too much can make your hair greasy.
Although you can use your hands to apply the mask, it's best to use a color brush, which allows you to evenly apply it.
2-2. Cover your head with a shower cap.
Stretch the edge of the shower cap around your head so all of the hair is inside. This way, your hair is covered as it processes.
The extra heat generated from inside the plastic shower cap also helps your hair absorb the curd. Additionally, the shower cap will prevent your mask from drying out. If it dries, it won't provide as many benefits.
2-3. Let your mask sit for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
After about 30 minutes, the curd and added ingredients should deeply penetrate your hair. For maximum absorption, let your hair process for about 1 hour.
As you wait, you can read a book, flip through a magazine, or watch TV, for example.
If you’d like, set a timer on your phone or kitchen clock to easily keep track of how long the mask is on your hair.
2-4. Rinse out the mask thoroughly in cool water.
When you are ready to wash out the mask, take off your shower cap, and rinse your hair thoroughly in cool water.
Use cool water for best results. Cool water works best to keep the hair follicle closed, which is helpful after you nourish your hair. You can use warm water if you prefer.
2-5. Cleanse your hair with shampoo.
Once the majority of the mask is out of your hair, use a dime-size or quarter-size amount of shampoo to cleanse your hair. Massage your scalp, and work the shampoo from the roots to the end of your hair. Then, rinse out the shampoo thoroughly.
If you have dry hair, you can apply conditioner and rinse it out afterwards, though this is not required.
2-6. Apply your curd hair mask once every 1-2 weeks for healthy, shiny hair.
Use your curd hair mask at least once every 15 days. For best results, you can use the mask once or twice a week.
Regularly using a curd hair mask may promote hair growth, increase hair thickness, and improve overall hair health.
Tips
You can also make your own curd using whole milk and yogurt. Bring 1 litre (4.2 c) of milk to a boil over medium heat. Simmer the milk for 10-15 minutes, stirring continuously. Let the milk cool until it is just warm to the touch, then stir in 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of yogurt. Set the covered bowl in a warm place for 6-10 hours, then the curd is ready to use.[10]

If curd is not sold in your regular grocery store, you can find it at a grocer that specializes in Indian foods.
Curd is safe to use on all hair types.

1,895 | How to Apply Cuticle Oil | 1. Massaging the Oil into Your Cuticles
1-1. Hold the dropper 2 inches (5 cm) from your nail.
Do this if your cuticle oil uses a dropper to dispense the oil. Other cuticle oil products may use a brush (like nail polish) or a roller to dispense the oil.
1-2. Apply the oil to each nail.
Focusing on one hand at a time, squeeze a drop of oil onto each nail. A little oil goes a long way, but don't be afraid to apply liberally and often.
Alternatively, use the brush or the roller to dot each nail with oil.
1-3. Massage the oil into your cuticles.
Make sure to massage it into the sides of your nail, as well as the skin surrounding your nail. Take a minute to massage the oil into your nails to induce blood circulation.
Repeat steps one through three on your other hand.
1-4. Re-apply every two to three hours.
It takes around two to three hours for the oil to completely absorb and dry. Or, reapply as often as you need to.
2. Deciding When to Use Cuticle Oil
2-1. Use the oil after a manicure.
Cuticle oil is a great way to rehydrate your cuticles after a manicure. The oil will not harm or remove the nail polish. Additionally, cuticle oil is a great way to revamp an old manicure. Just massage the oil over your cuticles and nails to give them a fresh shine.
Do not use it before a manicure. The oil will prevent the nail polish from adhering to your nail. If you do decide to use it before a manicure, then make sure to wipe your nails clean with nail polish remover or alcohol.
2-2. Apply the oil after you have pushed back your cuticles.
First soften your cuticles by soaking them in water for 10 minutes. Once they are soft, use an orangewood stick or a metal cuticle pusher to push them back. Then massage the cuticle oil into your cuticles.
It is recommended that you do not trim, cut, or remove your cuticles.
2-3. Put it on whenever you have free time.
Apply the oil whenever you are riding the bus or sitting in a taxicab, at your work desk, or on the couch while watching TV, for example. Basically, whenever you have some downtime.
Apply cuticle oil twice a day, or more if you need to.
2-4. Apply the oil before bedtime.
This is a great way to ensure that your cuticles stay hydrated and nourished for the coming day. Just remember to be persistent and consistent to keep your cuticles looking healthy.

1,896 | How to Apply Dark Eyeshadow | 1. Steps
1-1. Wash your face, making sure you wipe off any dirt or old makeup.
Always start with a newly clean face before putting on makeup.
1-2. Apply all your makeup except for your eye makeup.
This includes foundation, blush, concealer, lipstick, lip gloss, etc. This also includes doing your eyebrows.
1-3. Apply a light tinting makeup/eye shadow to your eyelids.
This eye shadow color should be neutral, not an exotic color.
1-4. Apply a little brown eye shadow to your eyes.
This serves as a base color for the rest of the shadows.
Try to go for a medium colored brown. Don't choose a brown color that is too light, or else it doesn't work as good for a base color. On the other hand, don't choose a super dark brown, or else it will show through the rest of your eye shadow.
1-5. Use a dark brown eye shadow to divide the areas between the eyelid and under the eyebrow.
This will make your eyes appear larger and clearer.
1-6. Apply your favorite dark shadow to the upper eyelids.
For example, black, navy blue, or another darkish color. If you decide to use black, don't pack it on too heavy.
1-7. Redefine the dividing line with the same shade.
Split your shade a little to the under the eyebrow. Then brush a little on the lower eyelid.
1-8. Apply a dark eyeliner.
Use black or another dark shade. If you want, you could do a wing.
1-9. Apply several coats of dark mascara to the eyelashes.
Several layers of mascara will produce a more intense look for your eyes, but don't over do it, or your eye lashes will be all clumpy. You can also apply fake eye lashes if you want.
1-10. Balance both the eyes in the same way.
Once the eye shadow is done for both eyes, you are ready for the day!
Tips
The dividing line is very important for definition.

1,897 | How to Apply Day of the Dead Makeup | 1. Creating the Base
1-1. Wash, moisturize, and prime your face.
Use whatever cleanser you normally use, or simply use soap and water. A clean and oil-free face is best to ensure the makeup application goes smoothly. Next, apply moisturizer because large amounts of makeup can dry out your skin. Lastly, apply a makeup primer to smooth out your features and help the makeup apply more smoothly and come off more easily.
Washing is a must to make sure the face is oil-free when you start the makeup. Moisturizer and primer will help you accomplish the look better but are not absolutely necessary.
1-2. Apply white base to the whole face.
Don’t use anything grease-based like clown paint from the halloween store. Instead, using water-based theatrical makeup, like the one sold by Ben Nye, is often recommended. White Kabuki makeup is also a good option. It is probably easiest to order either of these online, if you have that option available. Use a sponge or brush to apply the makeup to your whole face, avoiding the area around your eyes.
Apply the makeup from the top of your forehead just below the hairline to the sides of your face at the edge of your ear and around your jawline just under the chin. Don’t go all the way under your chin or down onto your neck.
You may need to apply multiple coats so your face is covered completely. You don’t want the makeup to be too caked or become lumpy, but you want your face to appear fully white with no skin showing through.
Don’t apply makeup to your lips.
1-3. Use a powder to set the base.
Using standard setting powder, lightly cover the whole face. Using a brush or a powder puff are both fine. When using a puff, be sure to dab rather than wipe to keep from smearing the white base you’ve just applied.
Setting with powder is not absolutely necessary, but it will ensure a longer lasting look.
At this point, you can also lightly brush hot pink eye shadow or blush on the contours of your cheeks, chin, and forehead.
1-4. Draw circles around the eyes.
You can use an eyeliner pencil, liquid eyeliner, a nude pencil, or even cream eye shadow. The idea is to outline the whole area of the eye that you want to emphasize.The circle should encompass the entire eye socket, from the top of the eyebrows to the lower edge of the eye socket.
For people with thick or tricky eyebrows, a light swipe of an Elmer’s glue stick can help straighten them and even them out. It’s safe and washes off easily with water.
Don’t worry about making a perfect circle, because you can blend it with makeup in the later steps.
2. Accentuating the Eyes
2-1. Apply mascara to both eyes.
Don’t be afraid to apply 2 or 3 coats of mascara because you are going for a darker look than you normally would. Using one coat of brown mascara and then one coat of black can give your lashes a fuller look. Mascara and other features don’t need to be perfect given the overall look. It’s also not a big deal if you get mascara on your eyelids since you will be covering this whole area anyway.
If you want to curl your lashes, this is the time to do it.
You can also buy mascara that is specifically meant to create more volume, such as Maybelline’s The Falsies Push Up Angel Mascara or Urban Decay Perversion Mascara.
2-2. Apply black eyeliner to both eyes.
Go around the waterline of your eye as you usually would when applying eyeliner, but also cover about halfway up your upper eyelid. Also make sure you get the inside and outside corners well since you won’t be able to get them with paint or eye shadow. Liquid eyeliner works best but pencil is an option.
2-3. Blend from eyelashes to eyebrows.
Using either an all over eyeshadow brush or a blender brush, blend eyeshadow up from the eyeliner filling in the circle from eyelashes to eyebrow. Then extend shading around the bottom of the eye socket, filling the rest of the circle. One you finish, you should have a fully filled circle around your eye. The circle does not have to be perfect.
You have a decision to make here: do you want to stick with a basic black and white look or add some color? You have freedom to style your eyes in a way that most fits the look you want. You can stick with all black or use a vibrant color like blue or pink.
2-4. Add small dots all around the outer edge of the circle.
Place the dots so that they overlap just slightly using the eyeliner from before. If you want a very simple look, you can stick with black filled circle and black dots. If you you used blue or pink, black dots are also good, but if you used black to fill in the circles, you could use bright red paint to make the dots stand out.
Rather than simple dots, you can also draw more elaborate flower petals with bright colors.
3. Accenting the Nose and Mouth
3-1. Paint the lips.
Start by applying basic lipstick. Bright red or pale pink are the best options, but feel free to pick what you like best. Then, use black lip liner (or eyeliner) to draw a horizontal line across the middle of your lips.
You can make the line extend just past the edges of your mouth or you can extend it all the way to your jaw line.
Don’t make it super wavy, but it doesn’t have to be straight as a ruler either.
3-2. Draw small vertical lines through the horizontal line.
This completes the stitching of the mouth.
The size of the stitch lines is up to you, but don’t exceed an inch long.
How close you place them is also up to you, but don’t get them so close that they blend together.
3-3. Paint the nose.
Use black paint or liquid eyeliner to emphasize the nose. Start on the bridge of your nose and paint at least to the tip forming a triangle with rounded points. You can also paint the whole nose covering the nostrils if you want to.
4. Adding Extra Features
4-1. Draw spiderwebs on the forehead and cheeks.
Draw two lines, like the points of a triangle, on your forehead with the point towards your nose. Draw a third line down the middle of the first two. Connect all three lines with wavy horizontal lines filling in the web. Depending on what type of shirt you are wearing, you can also add spiderwebs to your shoulders or chest.
4-2. Draw small crosses and hearts.
Using black eyeliner, you can add a small cross to your forehead and one on each cheek. Using red lipstick, draw a small heart on your chin. These touches symbolize the love and spiritual aspects of Day of the Dead.
4-3. Draw flowers.
You can use flowers to customize the look in a number of ways. Keep it simple with a small flower on the cheek or whole bouquet starting at the temple and continuing down the cheek to your jaw. You can also draw petals around the black makeup on your eyes.

1,898 | How to Apply Decals | 1. Preparing the Surface
1-1. Choose a flat surface to put your decal on.
You can put your decal on a wall, glass window, painted wood, the outside of a vehicle, or another non-porous flat surface. Avoid porous surfaces made out of things like brick, cement, and leather, or your decal may not stick properly.
1-2. Avoid applying your decal in extreme temperatures.
Put your decal on your chosen surface when it's between 50–90 °F (10–32 °C) outside or in the room you're applying it in. If it's hotter or colder, the decal won't stick properly.
If you're not sure what the temperature is, use a weather thermometer or feel the surface you'll be putting your decal on with your hands. If it feels hot or cold to the touch, you may need to wait to apply your decal.
1-3. Prepare a cleaning mixture of rubbing alcohol and dish soap.
In a spray bottle, add 2 parts dish soap and 1 part rubbing alcohol. Shake the mixture together thoroughly. If you don’t have a spray bottle, mix the alcohol and soap in a bowl and use a rag to apply it. You don’t need a lot of the mixture, just enough to clean the surface your decal will go on.
This cleaning mixture should be safe to use on most surfaces. If you're worried about damaging the surface you're putting your decal on, use a milder mixture of dish soap and water to clean it instead.
1-4. Clean the surface your decal is going on with the mixture.
Spray a liberal amount of the mixture onto the surface (or apply it with a rag). Use a clean cloth to wipe down the area where your decal will go. Make sure you get off all the dirt and grime on the surface so nothing interferes with your decal.
1-5. Let the surface dry completely.
Use a microfiber cloth or a paper towel to wipe down the surface so it dries faster. Don’t try to put your decal on a wet surface or it won’t stick properly.
2. Positioning the Decal
2-1. Choose where your decal will go on the surface.
Hold your decal up against the surface you want it on. Move it around to see which positioning you like best. If you want the decal to be centered, measure the surface from top to bottom and side to side with a tape measure and mark the center. Use a level to make sure the decal is straight.
2-2. Mark where your decal will go with a pencil.
Lightly draw a line along the surface to mark where the top edge of your decal will go. If you're working on a window or the outside of a vehicle, use a strip of tape to mark the surface instead.
2-3. Tape the top edge of your decal to the surface with masking tape.
The top edge is the edge at the top of your decal. Don’t remove the top lining or the backing on the decal yet. Line the decal up with the marks you made and apply the tape to the top edge of the decal. Use a long, continuous piece of tape to cover the entire top edge.
If you’re putting up your decal alone, tear off a piece of masking tape before you hold the decal against the surface so you’re not struggling to do it with one hand.
3. Pressing the Decal onto the Surface
3-1. Lift the decal upward and peel off the backing.
Use one of your hands to lift and hold the decal and top lining so they’re almost perpendicular to the surface. Then, use your other hand to slowly peel off the backing on the decal, starting at the top near the taped edge. Continue peeling the backing until it’s completely off the decal. Set the backing aside and keep holding the decal and top lining with your hand.
The backing is the thin film on the back of your decal that's between the decal itself and the surface you're putting it on.
3-2. Lower the decal into place on the surface.
Now that the backing is off, the decal will adhere to the surface beneath it. Starting with the top of the decal, gently let the decal touch the surface by lowering your hand that's holding the decal and top lining. Go slowly so the decal lays flat on the surface.
3-3. Press the decal onto the surface using a squeegee.
Start at the middle of the decal and press against the surface of the decal lining in an outward motion. Continue bringing the squeegee from the center to the outer edges of the decal lining until you've gone over the entire surface. Go over any air bubbles you see with the squeegee.
If you don’t have a squeegee to use, use the edge of a credit card instead.
3-4. Remove the top lining of the decal and the tape.
Pull the strip of tape on the top edge of the decal off first. Then, slowly take off the top lining by grabbing the top left corner and pulling it down at a 45-degree angle. Make sure you go slowly so the decal doesn’t get stuck to the lining and lift off the surface. Once the tape and lining are off, your decal is finished!

1,899 | How to Apply Dental Wax on Braces | 1. Getting Ready
1-1. Acquire a box of dental wax.
When you first received your braces, it is likely that your orthodontist gave you a pack with some essential supplies. Dental wax should have been included in the pack. Dentist Jeremy Silverman explains that "orthodontic wax placed over the sharp area will provide relief" from poking and rubbing. If you lose it or run out, you can easily buy another box from your local drugstore, or ask your orthodontist for some more.
You will probably find that your braces irritate the inside of your mouth most when you first have them, so they will require more wax.
Over time, the skin on the inside of your mouth may toughen up and you may find you require less wax.
1-2. Wash your hands.
Dentist Jeremy Silverman emphasizes that it's important to "be sure to wash your hands thoroughly and brush your teeth prior to applying orthodontic wax." Scrub your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, then dry them thoroughly. Likewise, give your teeth a thorough brushing before applying the wax. You don't want to bring any bacteria into your mouth, especially if you have a cut or sore.
While this doesn't have to be your most thorough brush job, at the very least, remove any food stuck in the braces where you plan to apply the wax.
1-3. Shape a small ball of wax.
According to dentist Jeremy Silverman, you should "pinch a pea sized amount [of wax] between the thumb and forefinger and roll the wax into a ball. It can be flattened slightly to cover more area if needed."
Roll the wax for at least five seconds. The warmth from your fingers will soften it and make it easier to mold around the brace or wire.
Using too much wax may result in the wax falling off.
1-4. Locate painful areas.
Wax can cover up any area where sharp or rough metal is irritating your inner lips and cheeks. The most common places are the brackets on your front teeth, and the sharp wires at the far back of your mouth. Pull your cheek out and look for any bright red or swollen areas, or gently probe your cheek to find tender areas. You should protect all of these before they develop into cuts, or get infected.
If you're having trouble seeing, use a metal rod or small spoon to push out your cheek.
1-5. Dry off your braces.
Before you apply the wax, dry off your braces with a tissue or a cotton ball. The drier the area is, the longer the wax will stick.
2. Applying the Wax
2-1. Press the wax over the painful area.
Using your thumb and forefinger, press the ball of wax over the bracket or wire causing you pain. If the wire is at the back of your mouth, push as far as you can, then withdraw your thumb and use your forefinger to position the wax. Dentist Jeremy Silverman adds that "your tongue can be used to make slight adjustments if needed."
The wax is edible and non-toxic, so it doesn't matter if you swallow it.
2-2. Rub it in place.
Rub your forefinger over the wax a couple times to stick it in place. The wax should still stick out a little, forming a small bump.
2-3. Allow the wax to work.
Once you have applied wax to your braces, your mouth should heal itself quite quickly. The wax barrier stops the irritation and allows the mouth the time to heal any sore spots. As you become accustomed to your braces, you will find they cause less and less irritation and you won't have to use the wax as often.
2-4. Reapply the wax regularly.
Keep some wax on you when you are out and about. Replace the wax twice a day, or whenever it starts to fall off. Do not leave it on for more than two days, as bacteria can build up in the wax.
The wax will pick up food as you eat. If the braces are too painful to let you eat without wax, replace the dirty wax after you finish your meal.
Take off the wax before brushing your teeth, or you'll get wax caught in your toothbrush.
2-5. Consider dental silicone.
One common alternative to dental wax is dental silicone. This comes in strips that you apply to braces. The silicone is more resilient as it impervious to the saliva and enzymes in your mouth, which means that you will have to reapply it less frequently.
The downside is that your braces must be completely dry before you apply it.
If you want to try silicone, ask your dentist for a tester pack, or buy a small amount from the store and test it out for a few days.
2-6. Contact your orthodontist if the pain persists.
If you have tried wax and silicone and they haven't helped, get in touch with your orthodontist. Persistent irritation and sores can become infected and lead to more serious problems. If you are having a really tough time with your braces, don't be shy about getting in touch with your orthodontist. They will help make them more comfortable.
If the pain is from an irritated area in the mouth, such as the cheek or lip, doing warm salt water rinses several times a day might help heal the tissue and decrease irritation.
You should see an orthodontist right away if your pain results from a wire poking or a bracket that has come off. The orthodontist and staff have the proper tools to trim or recenter a poking wire and to repair a broken bracket.
Tips
If you don't have any store-bought wax or unable to find any, you can use the red wax rind of the Babybel (Edam) cheese as an alternative. Just take a small piece and warm it up in your clean hands. Once it has softened, place over the area that is bothering the inside of your mouth.
Some orthodontists give wax for free.
Don't be afraid that the wax will get stuck permanently. The wax will start to crumble after a day or so.
Warnings
Never put chewing gum on your braces. It may stick permanently, or you could accidentally swallow it.
When done applying the wax, some people may have a small to large lisp depending on how big the wax is.
Aches are not caused by sharp metal, and will not be fixed by wax. Your teeth will ache for a while after your braces are fitted or tightened and you might use some over-the-counter pain medication if needed. If they ache for more than a few days, contact your orthodontist.

Zinc is often overused in denture adhesives, so much so that zinc-free paste adhesive is now available. Using a paste adhesive that contains zinc combined with a diet high in zinc can lead to excessive zinc in your body and possible health issues.
If you use a paste adhesive that contains zinc, only use it as directed on the label and do not use too much adhesive.
1-2. Clean and dry your dentures.
Before you apply adhesive, you need to clean your dentures under running water and your normal denture cleanser. Then, pat them dry. Dry dentures will help the paste adhesive to stay attached to the dentures, and to your gums.
This will ensure a very stable bite and will prevent food from getting underneath your dentures.
1-3. Start by applying denture cream to your upper denture.
Do not use more denture adhesive than directed on the label. Always begin with a small amount of adhesive so you don’t put too much on your dentures.
Apply three to four dabs of the paste the size of a pencil eraser to the upper denture, equally distributing the paste on the inside surface. Do not apply the paste too close to the edge of your denture.
1-4. Place three to four dabs on your lower denture.
The dabs should be no bigger than a pencil eraser and should not be too close to the edge of your denture. Again, make sure the dabs are evenly spaced along the inside surface of the denture.
1-5. Put the dentures in your mouth and press them together firmly to keep them in place.
If any of the adhesive oozes out on the sides of the dentures, you have used too much adhesive. You may need to remove the dentures, clean off the adhesive and reapply, using less on the upper and lower dentures.
1-6. Use only one application a day.
If you put the adhesive on your dentures properly, you should not need to reapply the adhesive throughout the day.
A standard 40 g tube of adhesive should last at least four weeks, a 47 g tube should last five weeks, and a 70 g tube should last at least eight weeks. Avoid overusing the denture adhesive or using too much every day.
2. Using a Powder Adhesive
2-1. Try to buy a powder adhesive that does not contain zinc.
Zinc is often overused in denture adhesives. If you have a diet that is high in zinc and/or take vitamins containing zinc, and also use a denture powder containing the mineral, you can experience serious health problems, including nerve damage. Look for powders that are specifically marked asa being zinc-free.
If you use a powder adhesive that contains zinc, only use it as directed on the label and do not use too much adhesive. Your prosthodontist may also be able to recommend a powder denture adhesive that does not contain zinc.
2-2. Clean your dentures.
Use your usual denture cleanser to give your dentures a good clean before you apply the adhesive.
Keep your dentures moist and do not dry them off. The moisture will help the powder adhesive stick to your dentures.
2-3. Sprinkle the powder evenly onto the surface of either denture.
The key is to distribute the powder in an even layer over your dentures. Shake or vibrate the dentures in your hand to ensure the powder gets on both dentures. Think of this as similar to flouring a cake pan.
2-4. Place your dentures in your mouth.
Use your thumb and forefinger to press the upper and lower dentures into your mouth.
Powder adhesives may not make your dentures stay in your mouth as long as paste adhesives. Usually, adhesives are more effective on your upper dentures than on your lower dentures. Liquids and foods can loosen your lower denture, so you may want to consider using a paste adhesive for your lower denture.
3. Removing Your Dentures and the Denture Adhesive
3-1. Take out your dentures if you feel any discomfort or there is excessive adhesive in your mouth.
If you feel any pain, tingling, or soreness when you put your dentures in your mouth, or if there is too much adhesive on your dentures, you may need to remove them. You can then try to use the paste adhesive again, or try a different type of adhesive.
You will also need to remove your dentures at night before going to bed. You should clean your dentures well and place them in a container with water or a commercial denture cleanser.
3-2. Rinse your mouth with warm water or mouthwash.
Before you remove your dentures, you need to moisten your mouth and remove any food debris from the day.
3-3. Take out your lower denture first.
Pull gently at your lower denture and move it back and forth in a rocking motion. It should slowly release from your gums.
3-4. Remove your upper denture.
It may be more difficult to remove your upper denture, as there is a higher surface area for the denture to adhere to.
Use your thumb to press against the front teeth. Then, press upward and outward with your thumb towards your nose. Your upper denture should dislodge and come out in your hand.
You can also grab it on the lateral sides and go as deep as possible with your index fingers, then pull it down vertically.
Do not use any other objects besides your fingers and fingernails to remove your dentures as this could lead to injury.
If you cannot get your dentures out and you do not want to sleep with them in or keep them in overnight, you may need to seek medical care at the nearest hospital or clinic. You can also contact a 24-hour dental service for assistance.
3-5. Clean the adhesive residue from your dentures and your mouth.
Don’t leave the adhesive residue on your dentures at the end of the day, as your dentures may not adhere properly the following day when you try to put them in.
Use your denture cleanser to clean your dentures. Then, combine hot water and toothpaste in a bowl. Use a soft bristled toothbrush to remove the adhesive residue from your dentures.
You should also use the toothbrush to clean any adhesive residue from your gums, your tongue, and your mouth.

1,901 | How to Apply Deoxit | 1. Steps
1-1. Purchase the right type of Deoxit for your application.
DeoxIT is manufactured in over a dozen varieties, so you should read carefully about the uses of each type before your purchase. For cleaning and lubricating potentiometers ("pots") or contacts, the standard "D5" spray should be used. Other formulations are available for more specialized applications, though, such as cleaning gold or conductive plastics.
1-2. Remove the case from your receiver or amplifier.
To access the pots, you will have to remove the case. This can usually be done by removing a few screws on the underside of the unit. Remove these screws carefully and set them aside. Slide the case away from the chassis of the receiver. To access the pots, you only need about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of room behind the faceplate.
1-3. Locate the potentiometers.
Just behind the knobs on the faceplate (the ones that control volume, tone, balance, et cetera) you will find the pots. The pots are small cylinders that are controlled through the knobs. Each pot should have a small rectangular hole that allows access to the internal components.
1-4. Spray the Deoxit into the first pot.
Attach the long, straw-shaped nozzle to the can of Deoxit and place the tip of this nozzle into the hole in the pot. Spray a small amount of the cleaner into the hole and remove the nozzle.
1-5. Rotate the knob attached to the pot repeatedly.
After spraying the cleaner into the first pot, turn the control back and forth repeatedly from its minimum position to its maximum position. This will spread the cleaner across the inside of the pot and help work loose any corrosion or dirt. Do this for about 2 minutes continuously. Repeat this process with each pot in sequence.
1-6. Allow the Deoxit to dry.
After cleaning each pot, reattach the receiver's case. Allow the unit to sit for an hour so that the Deoxit dries sufficiently. Plug the unit in and test it. The knobs should now rotate smoothly and no distortion should be audible when rotating each control.
Warnings
Make sure to unplug any electronic component before taking it apart or performing work on it.
Opening your stereo equipment and working with the internal components is almost sure to void your warranty, if applicable.

1,902 | How to Apply Dermabond | 1. Taking Precautions while Using Dermabond
1-1. Be careful not to get Dermabond in hair.
Dermabond will adhere hair to itself or to the skin. In fact, you may not want to use Dermabond on the scalp at all, as it can be difficult to avoid getting it in the surrounding hair.
Some medical professionals suggest that you can use Dermabond on the scalp. However, if you do, you must be very careful not to let it run through into the rest of the hair.
1-2. Use an eye shield when applying Dermabond near the eyes.
Apply an ophthalmic cream around the eye. This forms a barrier that makes the Dermabond go around it instead of in it. Also, tilting the patient's head down away from the body and to the side can help prevent the glue from going into their eye.
For instance, if the cut is near the outside of the right eye, tilt the patient's head that direction, so the glue flows away from the eye.
Another option is to soak a piece of gauze in saline and place it between the eye and the wound.
1-3. Wash your hands and put on sterile gloves.
You should still follow standard cleaning procedures by thoroughly washing your hands before applying Dermabond. After washing your hands, put on sterile gloves for the procedure.
You can introduce bacteria to the wound if you're not careful, as well as be exposed to contaminants from the wound.
Keep a box of gloves nearby in case you need to switch them out while you're using the glue.
You may also want to consider wearing safety glasses to prevent biohazardous materials or any of the glue from getting in your eyes while you open and apply the product.
2. Preparing for Dermabond Use
2-1. Use Dermabond in place of 5-0, 6-0, and 7-0 sutures.
Dermabond is appropriate for small cuts that would normally require 5-0 sutures. You can also use it in place of smaller sutures.
Typically, 5-0 sutures are used on limb wounds. Sutures get smaller in size the larger the USP size. For instance, a 4-0 suture is bigger than a 5-0 suture. The 6-0 and 7-0 sutures are smaller than a 5-0 suture, and they are used for smaller cuts on the hands, face, and nail beds, for instance.
2-2. Avoid using Dermabond with more complicated wounds.
Wounds like animal bites, contaminated wounds, ulcers, and punctures have more bacteria in them and shouldn't be closed up. Dermabond isn't a good choice for these types of wounds.
Do not use Dermabond on a wound that is infected or contaminated, as it can make the problem worse.
2-3. Apply a local anesthetic if needed.
If the wound is painful to the patient or the patient requests it, you can use a local anesthetic. Ideally, choose one that contains 0.25% bupivacaine or 1% lidocaine.
Apply the gel or cream to the area using sterile gauze.
2-4. Irrigate the wound thoroughly.
For Dermabond to heal effectively, you must dilute the bacteria in the wound first. Flush the wound with a 0.9% saline solution to help remove the bacteria.
Use a 10 cc or 20 cc sterile syringe with a splash cover to apply the saline to the wound.
If needed, you can remove debris at this point with a fine (small) pair of sterilized forceps.
2-5. Wait until the wound stops bleeding.
You cannot apply Dermabond while the wound is still bleeding freely. Apply pressure to the wound with a sterile gauze until it begins to clot and the wound is dry.
2-6. Pat the area dry.
Once the wound stops bleeding, wipe up any excess blood. Pat it dry with sterile gauze. Try not to apply Dermabond to a wet wound, as it won't seal as well.
Moisture on the wound can also stop up the applicator, making it more difficult to apply.
3. Using the Glue
3-1. Crush the ampoule in the clear part of the tube.
Squeeze the clear section of the applicator tube. It has a small ampoule inside that releases part of the glue inside the applicator, similar to a 2-part epoxy.
While you're squeezing, do not point the glue at the patient. Keep it away from the patient and point it at the floor.
After squeezing, release the pressure.
3-2. Squeeze the clear part of the tube again gently.
Once you release the tube from breaking the ampoule, you need to squeeze the same area again. However, use gentle pressure this time, as you don't want to squeeze the ampoule a second time. This action pushes the adhesive into the internal filter.
If you crush the tube too hard, you can push pieces of glass through the sides, injuring yourself.
Shake the tube gently to encourage the glue to flow downwards.
3-3. Grasp each end of the wound with Adson forceps.
You will need another person to help you. Each person should hold one end of the wound with forceps. Grasp the skin about 2 millimetres (0.079 in) out from the ends of the wound. Pull outwards on the corners of the wound so that the edges of the cut are tight against each other.
Adson forceps are small forceps often used to suture the skin. Use ones with teeth, as they provide more grip.
3-4. Apply a single layer of Dermabond over the wound.
Run the applicator over the length of the wound, applying glue in a single, steady layer. The applicator should be touching the skin. Hold the skin together for at least 180 seconds to ensure the glue begins to dry. Apply the glue only on top of the wound, not in the wound.
Wipe up any excess glue immediately using sterile gauze.
Be careful when applying the glue, as it can stick almost anything to the skin. For instance, it will adhere your gloves or the forceps to the skin if you're not careful.
3-5. Add a second layer in 30 seconds for Dermabond Adhesive.
If you are going to add a second layer, add it after the first layer has dried for 30 seconds. Run the applicator over the wound a second time.
There are 2 types of Dermabond, Dermabond Adhesive and Dermabond Advanced Adhesive. If you have the advanced formula, you should only apply 1 layer. When applying Dermabond Adhesive, thin layers are better because a thick layer can heat up, causing the patient discomfort.
You can also apply a third layer this way.
Hold the skin in place for another 180 seconds.
3-6. Wait for the glue to set if you want to apply a bandage.
It's not necessary to apply a bandage after using Dermabond. However, it can be helpful with kids who might pick at the glue. Wait until the glue is completely set and not sticky to the touch before applying a bandage.
The glue will be fully set in 95-3 minutes seconds for Dermabond Advanced or in 3 minutes for Dermabond Adhesive. It may take up to 5 minutes for the wound to not feel sticky.
If you are worried the wound might open again, you can apply surgical tape or a butterfly bandage over the wound once it dries completely.
3-7. Avoid using liquid or cream medications on the wound after application.
If you apply an antibiotic cream or another type of medication after using Dermabond, it can make the glue weaker. It may even result in the glue coming apart.
For this reason, it's important to make sure you thoroughly clean the wound before applying Dermabond since you can't apply an antibacterial cream afterwards.
3-8. Use petroleum jelly or acetone if you need to remove excess Dermabond.
If you end up getting Dermabond outside of the wound area, apply petroleum jelly or acetone to the area. These solvents will help loosen the glue, and then you can remove the glue from the skin.
Do not try to pull the skin apart.
Do not apply acetone in the area immediately around the wound, as this could cause a burning sensation.
Warnings
Always wipe up any excess glue immediately so you don't accidentally stick foreign objects to the patient.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Taking Precautions while Using Dermabond\\n1-1. Be careful not to get Dermabond in hair.\\nDermabond will adhere hair to itself or to the skin. In fact, you may not want to use Dermabond on the scalp at all, as it can be difficult to avoid getting it in the surrounding hair.\\nSome medical professionals suggest that you can use Dermabond on the scalp. However, if you do, you must be very careful not to let it run through into the rest of the hair.\\n1-2. Use an eye shield when applying Dermabond near the eyes.\\nApply an ophthalmic cream around the eye. This forms a barrier that makes the Dermabond go around it instead of in it. Also, tilting the patient's head down away from the body and to the side can help prevent the glue from going into their eye.\\nFor instance, if the cut is near the outside of the right eye, tilt the patient's head that direction, so the glue flows away from the eye.\\nAnother option is to soak a piece of gauze in saline and place it between the eye and the wound.\\n1-3. Wash your hands and put on sterile gloves.\\nYou should still follow standard cleaning procedures by thoroughly washing your hands before applying Dermabond. After washing your hands, put on sterile gloves for the procedure.\\nYou can introduce bacteria to the wound if you're not careful, as well as be exposed to contaminants from the wound.\\nKeep a box of gloves nearby in case you need to switch them out while you're using the glue.\\nYou may also want to consider wearing safety glasses to prevent biohazardous materials or any of the glue from getting in your eyes while you open and apply the product.\\n2. Preparing for Dermabond Use\\n2-1. Use Dermabond in place of 5-0, 6-0, and 7-0 sutures.\\nDermabond is appropriate for small cuts that would normally require 5-0 sutures. You can also use it in place of smaller sutures.\\nTypically, 5-0 sutures are used on limb wounds. Sutures get smaller in size the larger the USP size. For instance, a 4-0 suture is bigger than a 5-0 suture. The 6-0 and 7-0 sutures are smaller than a 5-0 suture, and they are used for smaller cuts on the hands, face, and nail beds, for instance.\\n2-2. Avoid using Dermabond with more complicated wounds.\\nWounds like animal bites, contaminated wounds, ulcers, and punctures have more bacteria in them and shouldn't be closed up. Dermabond isn't a good choice for these types of wounds.\\nDo not use Dermabond on a wound that is infected or contaminated, as it can make the problem worse.\\n2-3. Apply a local anesthetic if needed.\\nIf the wound is painful to the patient or the patient requests it, you can use a local anesthetic. Ideally, choose one that contains 0.25% bupivacaine or 1% lidocaine.\\nApply the gel or cream to the area using sterile gauze.\\n2-4. Irrigate the wound thoroughly.\\nFor Dermabond to heal effectively, you must dilute the bacteria in the wound first. Flush the wound with a 0.9% saline solution to help remove the bacteria.\\nUse a 10 cc or 20 cc sterile syringe with a splash cover to apply the saline to the wound.\\nIf needed, you can remove debris at this point with a fine (small) pair of sterilized forceps.\\n2-5. Wait until the wound stops bleeding.\\nYou cannot apply Dermabond while the wound is still bleeding freely. Apply pressure to the wound with a sterile gauze until it begins to clot and the wound is dry.\\n2-6. Pat the area dry.\\nOnce the wound stops bleeding, wipe up any excess blood. Pat it dry with sterile gauze. Try not to apply Dermabond to a wet wound, as it won't seal as well.\\nMoisture on the wound can also stop up the applicator, making it more difficult to apply.\\n3. Using the Glue\\n3-1. Crush the ampoule in the clear part of the tube.\\nSqueeze the clear section of the applicator tube. It has a small ampoule inside that releases part of the glue inside the applicator, similar to a 2-part epoxy.\\nWhile you're squeezing, do not point the glue at the patient. Keep it away from the patient and point it at the floor.\\nAfter squeezing, release the pressure.\\n3-2. Squeeze the clear part of the tube again gently.\\nOnce you release the tube from breaking the ampoule, you need to squeeze the same area again. However, use gentle pressure this time, as you don't want to squeeze the ampoule a second time. This action pushes the adhesive into the internal filter.\\nIf you crush the tube too hard, you can push pieces of glass through the sides, injuring yourself.\\nShake the tube gently to encourage the glue to flow downwards.\\n3-3. Grasp each end of the wound with Adson forceps.\\nYou will need another person to help you. Each person should hold one end of the wound with forceps. Grasp the skin about 2 millimetres (0.079 in) out from the ends of the wound. Pull outwards on the corners of the wound so that the edges of the cut are tight against each other.\\nAdson forceps are small forceps often used to suture the skin. Use ones with teeth, as they provide more grip.\\n3-4. Apply a single layer of Dermabond over the wound.\\nRun the applicator over the length of the wound, applying glue in a single, steady layer. The applicator should be touching the skin. Hold the skin together for at least 180 seconds to ensure the glue begins to dry. Apply the glue only on top of the wound, not in the wound.\\nWipe up any excess glue immediately using sterile gauze.\\nBe careful when applying the glue, as it can stick almost anything to the skin. For instance, it will adhere your gloves or the forceps to the skin if you're not careful.\\n3-5. Add a second layer in 30 seconds for Dermabond Adhesive.\\nIf you are going to add a second layer, add it after the first layer has dried for 30 seconds. Run the applicator over the wound a second time.\\nThere are 2 types of Dermabond, Dermabond Adhesive and Dermabond Advanced Adhesive. If you have the advanced formula, you should only apply 1 layer. When applying Dermabond Adhesive, thin layers are better because a thick layer can heat up, causing the patient discomfort.\\nYou can also apply a third layer this way.\\nHold the skin in place for another 180 seconds.\\n3-6. Wait for the glue to set if you want to apply a bandage.\\nIt's not necessary to apply a bandage after using Dermabond. However, it can be helpful with kids who might pick at the glue. Wait until the glue is completely set and not sticky to the touch before applying a bandage.\\nThe glue will be fully set in 95-3 minutes seconds for Dermabond Advanced or in 3 minutes for Dermabond Adhesive. It may take up to 5 minutes for the wound to not feel sticky.\\nIf you are worried the wound might open again, you can apply surgical tape or a butterfly bandage over the wound once it dries completely.\\n3-7. Avoid using liquid or cream medications on the wound after application.\\nIf you apply an antibiotic cream or another type of medication after using Dermabond, it can make the glue weaker. It may even result in the glue coming apart.\\nFor this reason, it's important to make sure you thoroughly clean the wound before applying Dermabond since you can't apply an antibacterial cream afterwards.\\n3-8. Use petroleum jelly or acetone if you need to remove excess Dermabond.\\nIf you end up getting Dermabond outside of the wound area, apply petroleum jelly or acetone to the area.

1,903 | How to Apply Diatomaceous Earth | 1. Spraying a Wet Application onto Plants and Trees
1-1. Make a wet solution to spray on trees and hard to reach areas.
Sometimes you might have a tree or a section of your yard that is infected with bugs but that you wouldn’t be able to reach to sprinkle powder on the area. In these situations, you can make a wet application to spray onto those infected areas.
Keep in mind that this will kill all of the insects on your plants—including any beneficial ones that might be living there.
After it dries, diatomaceous earth will reduce the number of pests and bugs within 1 to 5 days, just depending on the type of pest.
In addition to being a good option for hard to reach areas, a wet solution works well in areas that are really windy, as the dry powder would just blow away.
1-2. Combine 4 tbsp (60 grams) of food-grade powder with 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water.
Put the diatomaceous earth and the water into a container with a lid. Shake the mixture up thoroughly until the powder is completely dissolved in the water.
Because diatomaceous earth only works when it’s in powder form, it’s really important to not dilute it too much. Once it’s sprayed on the infected area, it’ll dry and leave behind a thin layer of powder, which is what will actually kill the pests.
1-3. Transfer the mixture to a spray bottle.
Once the mixture has been completely combined, go ahead and pour it into a spray bottle. If you need to cover a large section, use a garden sprayer to cover more area at once with more control over where the mixture lands.
Buy a handheld sprayer at your local home improvement store. You can buy a battery-operated sprayer for about $50 to $100, or get a manual one that you pump yourself for about $15.
1-4. Spray the infected plants with the wet diatomaceous earth on all sides.
Take your time to get both the tops and undersides of infected leaves. Spray trunks, stems, and the soil surrounding the base of the plant. Once the mixture dries, the remaining powder will stick to the plant and create a protective barricade to keep pests and bugs from damaging your plants, killing them along the way.
It should only take 2 to 3 hours for the water to evaporate and leave behind the layer of powder. Once it has evaporated, the powder will start doing its work.
1-5. Reapply the mixture after it rains and the powder is washed away.
Remember, the diatomaceous earth is only effective when it’s on the plant in powder form. If the dried layer of powder gets washed away in the rain, spray another coat onto the infected plants or trees.
Once your plant or tree is insect-free, you’ll only need to use the diatomaceous earth whenever you notice pests creeping around again.
2. Using Powder Outdoors
2-1. Use diatomaceous earth in your garden to get rid of unwanted pests.
Food-grade diatomaceous earth is safe to use in areas where you, your family, and other creatures will come into contact with it. It’s great to apply to both potted and planted plants, vegetables, flowers, and trees.
Diatomaceous earth is a great way to get rid of slugs, worms, mites, spiders, and fleas without potentially harming larger creatures, like birds, rabbits, or your household pets.
2-2. Scoop food-grade diatomaceous earth into a garden duster.
Use a small shovel or a trowel to move the powder from its container to a garden duster. Use gentle movements to make as little dust as possible, and wear a disposable mask so that you don’t breathe in too much powder and irritate your throat.
The food-grade powder is non-toxic to humans, but breathing in the dust can be irritating, especially if you have asthma or other similar sensitivities.
A garden duster is a simple tool you can buy at your local home improvement store that allows you to disperse powder evenly.
2-3. Apply the powder early in the morning when there is dew on the ground.
The slight dampness will help the powder stick to the plants and prevent it from blowing away in the wind. You could also apply it later in the evening and let it work its magic overnight.
If the forecast is calling for rain, it would be best to wait for clearer weather to use the diatomaceous earth. Rain will just wash it away and it won’t be effective at killing pests.
2-4. Shake the powder over the infected plants, vegetables, and leaves.
Use your garden duster to apply a thin, even layer of powder over your yard, garden, or potted plants (you should still be able to see the color of the leaf or the ground through the powder). Sprinkle powder over the tops of the plants as well as the soil surrounding the base to catch any new pests that will try to climb up.
If you do use diatomaceous earth on vegetables, just make sure to rinse them off thoroughly before you eat them after they’ve been harvested.
2-5. Reapply the powder after it rains if your plants are still infested.
Diatomaceous earth is only effective when it’s in its powder form, so once the rain washes it off, it won’t be much use anymore. If, after a rain, you notice there are still some lingering pests, go ahead and sprinkle another layer of powder over the infected areas.
If there’s no rain, the powder will last as long as the wind doesn’t blow it away, so it could be good for up to 2 to 3 days before you would need to reapply it.
Reapplying the powder shouldn’t harm your plants at all. You can use it as often as you need with minimal adverse effects. The potential risk is if your plants can’t receive enough sunlight through the powder and start to look a little yellow. If that happens, stop using the powder for 1 to 2 weeks to let your plants recover.
3. Applying Diatomaceous Earth Indoors
3-1. Use diatomaceous earth indoors to deal with fleas and bedbugs.
Instead of using chemicals or bug bombs, use food-grade diatomaceous earth to stop flea and bed bug infestations. The powder will kill eggs, larvae, and adult bugs, making it a great option to deal with these pests that lay eggs that hatch quickly.
In addition to using the diatomaceous earth, you’ll also need to treat all your linens, clothes, pillows, and other soft materials with hot water and heat to make sure they are clean, too.
3-2. Sprinkle dry diatomaceous earth over areas that are infected.
Consider wearing a face mask while you’re sprinkling the powder so that it doesn’t irritate your throat. Focus on areas that you’ve noticed are infected, like pet bedding, mattresses, box springs, windows sills, baseboards, and carpets. Apply a thin layer of powder over the entire infected area.
Carpets and pet bedding are the biggest breeding grounds for fleas.
3-3. Avoid being in rooms that have been treated with the powder.
The powder is non-toxic, but you don’t want it getting all over your clothes or in your hair. If your mattress is currently covered with powder, see if you can stay with a friend or use an inflatable mattress—but if it's just on the floors, it's fine to sleep in a room where diatomaceous earth has been applied.
If you treated your carpets with diatomaceous earth and you don't want to track it throughout your home, you may want to lay down towels or a plastic tarp so you can walk over the carpet without spreading the powder around your home.
It might be inconvenient for a day or so, but before you know it your home should be pest free!
3-4. Vacuum up the powder after it has been sitting for 24 to 48 hours.
Fleas start to die about 24 hours after they come into contact with diatomaceous earth; bedbugs start to die about 48 hours afterward. Vacuum the powder up really thoroughly—not only are you cleaning up the powder residue, but you’re also sweeping up all the dead bugs.
If you can’t wait 24 to 48 hours, leave the powder for a minimum of 12 hours and plan to repeat the process 3 to 4 more times over the next 2 weeks to kill any newly hatching pests.
You could even leave the powder for 2 to 3 days.
3-5. Reapply the powder after 2 weeks to kill any remaining bugs.
Because fleas and bedbugs can mate and lay eggs very quickly, to be safe you should apply a second round of diatomaceous earth after 2 weeks to eradicate any lingering pests. Remember to vacuum up the powder after 24 to 48 hours.
Treat pests as soon as you notice them to keep the problem from getting worse.
Tips
While food-grade diatomaceous earth isn’t toxic to humans, it can still irritate your throat if breathed in. While you’re applying it, wear a disposable face mask.
Warnings
Don’t use pool-grade or feed-grade diatomaceous earth on your plants or in your home. Only food-grade diatomaceous earth is safe for areas you and your family will come into contact with.

1,904 | How to Apply Diatomaceous Earth Outdoors | 1. Using Diatomaceous Earth Safely
1-1. Avoid breathing in or touching the dust particles.
Diatomaceous earth is a fine powder, which can irritate your throat if you breathe a lot of it in. Wear a face mask to avoid inhaling the powder, and wear gloves on your hands so that the powder won’t dry out your skin.
If you don’t have a face mask, you can also wear a bandana or towel over your mouth to keep out the dust.
1-2. Use diatomaceous earth on plants that truly need it.
Instead of spreading the powder all over your yard, only use it on plants that are being eaten or really need the protection. This will help protect beneficial insects that you might have in your yard, such as bees.
Apply it close to the ground, and avoid spreading it over flowers that are in bloom so that you don’t harm bees.
1-3. Apply the powder in the early morning or evening for best results.
There’s often morning dew on your plants during this time, which will make the powder adhere much easier. It’s also a great time to spread the powder because bees and other beneficial insects aren’t as likely to be out and about at that time.
1-4. Spread diatomaceous earth on non-windy days.
Since it’s a fine powder, diatomaceous earth blows away very easily. To prevent your application from blowing around your yard, or out of your yard completely, wait until it’s a calm day outside to spread it.
If you have to spread it in light wind, opt for using a wet application to help keep the diatomaceous earth in place.
1-5. Reapply diatomaceous earth after heavy wind or rain.
A rainstorm or super windy day is likely to wash or blow away the diatomaceous earth, especially if it was spread in powder form. If it rains or is windy, wait until the weather dies down a bit and reapply just as you did the first time.
It's okay to apply diatomaceous earth when the ground is wet after a rain shower, just make sure it's not going to rain heavily afterwards.
2. Spreading Wet Diatomaceous Earth Outside
2-1. Use wet diatomaceous earth to ensure it sticks to the plants.
If you're worried about the powder getting picked up by the wind, spreading a wet application over the intended area will help it attach to the plants and ground. Wet applications of the powder are also the best option when you're treating a larger area.
For example, if you need to use diatomaceous earth on your entire lawn, using a large spray bottle will allow you to easily spread it.
2-2. Mix 4 tablespoons (59 ml) of diatomaceous earth with 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water.
Use a water jug, bucket, or similar container to hold the contents. Pour in 4 tablespoons (59 ml) of diatomaceous earth for every gallon (3.8 L) of water. Mix these together thoroughly until the powder dissolves.
It’s easiest to pour the 4 tablespoons (59 ml) into a jug of water, seal the lid on tightly, and then shake the container to get the powder to dissolve.
2-3. Fill a spray bottle or garden pump sprayer with the mixture.
If you only need to apply diatomaceous earth to a specific spot, a small spray bottle is the perfect application option. For spraying bigger areas, trying using a garden pump sprayer filled with the mixture.
If you're treating 1 or 2 plants, you might use a small spray bottle.
If you're treating a larger area, such as your entire flower bed or garden, you'd want to use a garden pump sprayer.
2-4. Spray the plants or lawn section with a fine layer of diatomaceous earth.
Use your spray bottle or pump to apply a thin layer of diatomaceous earth to all sides of the plants. The plants and other necessary areas should be wet, but not dripping.
If you’re applying it to leaves, remember to spray the bottom of the leaves as well.
2-5. Allow the spray to dry completely before it starts working.
Diatomaceous earth doesn’t work while it’s still wet—it will need to completely dry first. Once the water evaporates, the powder will be left on the plants, providing a protective barricade against any pests.
3. Using Dry Diatomaceous Earth
3-1. Apply dry diatomaceous earth quickly for smaller areas.
Spreading the powder in dry form is much quicker for smaller areas, as you don't have to mix it with water. You'll apply a thin layer of the powder to the spots needed, making sure you don't layer it on too thick and it doesn't clump. The plants should be able to receive sunlight and grow properly.
3-2. Use a shaker to apply the dry powder.
You can either buy one specifically for this purpose, or you can create your own using an old spice shaker or plastic coffee can. Punch 5-10 holes in the container using a nail to allow the powder to fall through.
You can also use a garden duster or flour sifter.
Sometimes you can even buy bags of diatomaceous earth that come with a duster built in.
Find products specifically for spreading diatomaceous earth powder at your local garden store or online.
3-3. Fill the shaker with the diatomaceous earth powder.
Use a small shovel to transport the powder into the shaker instead of pouring the powder directly from the bag into the container—this will help prevent dust from flying up. Fill the shaker up with as much powder as you think you might need to cover the intended area.
3-4. Sprinkle the powder over the plants using the shaker.
Spread diatomaceous earth over the plants and other sections of your lawn that truly need it—remember to avoid haphazardly spreading it everywhere. Shake it onto both sides of the leaves if the leaves are damaged, leaving behind a thin layer.
Applying the powder around the base of your garden or right at the soil level will help prevent crawling insects from eating away at your plants.
Tips
Make sure you're using food-grade diatomaceous earth.
Avoid applying a heavy layer of the powder on the leaves of plants—this makes it hard for the sunlight to reach the leaves for photosynthesis.

1,905 | How to Apply Diatomaceous Earth to Carpet | 1. Preparing Your Materials
1-1. Use pest grade or food grade diatomaceous earth.
Diatomaceous earth (DE) comes in two forms. Most DE sold as a pest control treatment or labeled "food-grade" is safe for home use and not linked to serious health issues. Never use pool grade or industrial grade DE in your home, since these forms can (eventually) cause permanent respiratory problems.
All DE products are actually a mix of the "safe" and "unsafe" types. Food grade DE still has a small amount of "unsafe" DE, and is still dangerous if inhaled in large quantities.
DE sold for pest control has to meet specific safety standards and list safe instructions on the label (at least in the US), so this is usually the best choice. Food grade DE may not have a detailed safety label, since it is not intended to be used in pure, dry form, but it is similar to pest-grade DE and the risk of harm is low with the precautions below.
1-2. Follow safety instructions.
Food-grade DE is meant to be stirred into food and eaten, so in general, it's pretty safe. However, the concentrated, dry powder can still irritate your lungs and eyes, particularly if you have asthma. and skin. Review these safety precautions before you begin:
Consider wearing a dust mask or eye protection while you're applying the DE to avoid breathing it in or getting it into your eyes.
1-3. Choose a dusting tool.
Professional pest controls use special dusters to put down a fine, even layer of dust, but these can be hard for consumers to find. You can use a feather duster, paint brush, or flour sifter instead. Spoon (don't pour) the DE onto the dusting tool slowly, to avoid a cloud of dust.
Squeeze bottles or bellows are not recommended, since they cause too much drifting.
2. Applying Diatomaceous Earth
2-1. Vacuum the carpet multiple times.
Before you even apply the DE, vacuum the room thoroughly at least 3 times. That will help remove some of the bugs and eggs from the room, making the DE treatment even more effective.This is especially helpful if you're dealing with fleas or carpet beetles.
2-2. Dust a fine layer onto carpet edges.
Carefully apply an even, barely visible layer of dust around the perimeter of the carpet. The insects need to crawl across the dust for it to injure them, and they're more likely to avoid piles or thick layers of dust. Thick layers of DE are also more likely to get kicked up into the air and irritate lungs or eyes.
Carpets are usually only treated on the edges so human activity doesn't kick the dust into the air (where it's more likely to make you cough than kill insects). If the carpet is in a side room, you might be able to dust a larger area without any problems.
2-3. Dust around furniture legs.
Diatomaceous earth is not intended for use on upholstery or mattresses, where it can irritate human skin. However, a thin layer around the legs of furniture will affect any insects that crawl up onto the bed or couch.
This won't stop the insects from reaching the furniture, but it will expose them to DE on the way and (hopefully) kill them a few days later.
2-4. Keep humidity down.
Diatomaceous earth is more effective in dry environments. Run a dehumidifier in the room if you have one. A cross-breeze can also help, but avoid pointing fans where they could blow away the powder.
2-5. Leave in the carpet as long as needed.
As long as you aren't kicking up dust or coughing (which shouldn't happen with proper application), there's no need to remove the diatomaceous earth. It remains effective as long as it stays dry, and often takes a week or more to start killing insects. Since the insects may have laid eggs by then, leaving on the diatomaceous earth for several weeks will help prevent a rebound.
Try leaving the DE down for a week, then vacuum it up and repeat the treatment. After about 3 weeks, you should break the cycle of eggs hatching and adults laying more eggs.
2-6. Remove the DE with a filterless vacuum.
Diatomaceous earth is very hard and can quickly ruin a normal vacuum's filter. A normal vacuum might be fine for a single, light application, but a filterless vacuum or a shop vac are better choices if you plan to apply the DE multiple times.
There is no hurry to remove DE from your carpet unless you applied too much (leaving visible piles of dust). Just keep the proper tools in mind so you don't damage your normal vacuum cleaner during regular carpet cleaning.
2-7. Use other pest control methods at the same time.
It's hard to predict how effective the DE treatment will be. An insect population in one neighborhood may even be more resistant than the same insect species somewhere else. If you're still struggling with an outbreak, attack the insects with multiple treatments at once. Find out about more treatments for bed bugs, cockroaches, carpet beetles, or fleas.
2-8. Consider leaving DE under the carpet edges.
As long as DE stays dry, it can remain effective for months or even years. If you can lift your carpet, consider leaving a thin layer of DE underneath the edges, where it won't get kicked up.
It's best not to leave DE out in households with pets or young kids.
Tips
The effect of diatomaceous earth can be a little unpredictable. If your first attempt doesn't work, it might be worth trying a different brand, or a type of synthetic powder called a silica aerogel.[17]

Warnings
When applying diatomaceous earth for pest control and storage of food items, keep in mind that it is not the same as is used for charcoal filters or swimming pool filters. Though they are made from the same mineral compound, pool grade DE should not ever be used for pest control.
Even food-grade DE irritates the lungs when inhaled. Although unlikely to cause long-term damage, it does contain small amounts of crystalline silicone dioxide, which has been linked to silicosis and other respiratory problems.[18]

1,906 | Common Types of Bandages & How to Apply Them | 1. Gauze Pads
1-1. Apply a gauze pad over the wound.
Cut out a rectangular piece of gauze so it’s about 1 inch (2.5 cm) larger than the wound on each side. Gently press the gauze down so it completely covers the wound.
Use a gauze pad on any wounds that are too large to cover with a smaller adhesive strip bandage. Gauze pads also are effective for treating minor burns.
Use an impregnated gauze pad that’s soaked in petroleum jelly or antibacterial ointments to help your wound heal faster.
1-2. Secure the gauze with surgical tape for a simple dressing.
Cut off pieces of surgical tape that are 1 inch (2.5 cm) longer than the edges of your gauze pad. Place a piece of tape along the edge of the gauze so it’s half on the dressing and half on your skin. Firmly press the tape down to secure it. Then, apply the remaining tape strips to the other edges.
Be sure to tape all 4 sides of your gauze pad to keep bacteria and potential infections out.
1-3. Wrap a cotton roller bandage around the gauze for wounds near joints.
Keep your joint relaxed while you put on your bandage. Place the end of the wrap just below your wound and start wrapping the bandage. Overlap half the bandage as you wrap it up over the wound. Once you’ve passed the top of the wound, clip the end of the roller bandage to the layer underneath it so it stays secure.
Using roller bandages also allows you to secure gauze without using any tape.
If your bandage is so tight that it causes pain or cuts off your circulation, loosen it a little bit so it’s snug but comfortable.
1-4. Change the gauze at least once a day.
In order for the wound to drain and heal, take your bandage and gauze off at the end of the day. When you remove the bandage, clean the wound and let it sit in the open air for a few minutes before applying the new bandage.
If blood soaks through the gauze pad, replace it right away so it doesn’t drip or leak.
2. Adhesive Bandages
2-1. Choose an adhesive bandage that’s large enough to cover your wound.
Adhesive strip bandages come in a variety of sizes to treat a minor cut or protect a large scratch. Check that the padded gauze section of the bandage is large enough to cover your entire wound to keep out any bacteria.
If an adhesive bandage isn’t large enough to cover your wound, then you may need to apply a gauze dressing instead.
2-2. Peel the backing paper off of the bandage.
Flip your bandage over and hold onto the loose edge of the backing paper. Slowly pull the backing paper up and off of the adhesive without touching the gauze pad. Once you get the first piece of backing paper off, simply remove the second piece to expose the adhesive.
If you’re worried about the adhesive sticking to itself, bend the backing paper in half without fully pulling it off the bandage yet. That way, you expose the gauze to apply it to the wound, and you can easily peel the backing paper off once you position the bandage.
2-3. Position the bandage’s gauze over your wound.
Hold the padded gauze section of the bandage directly over the wound. Be careful not to apply the adhesive tape part of the bandage directly on your wound since it could cause irritation or re-open the cut.
Try to avoid touching the gauze with your fingers so that you don't transfer any dirt or germs to the bandage.
2-4. Press the adhesive firmly against your skin.
Once you have covered the wound with the gauze, gently stretch the adhesive part and press it onto your skin. Make sure the bandage doesn’t have any slack or gaps in the adhesive tape so that the bandage stays secured in one spot.
If there are gaps or any raised areas of the adhesive, bacteria could get into your wound which may lead to an infection.
2-5. Replace your bandage at least once a day.
Change your bandage if the gauze soaks through or when the bandage gets wet. Gently pull the bandage off instead of tugging or ripping it so you don’t hurt your skin or reopen your wound.
Stop using bandages as soon as your wound completely heals.
3. Knuckle Bandages
3-1. Press the gauze of a knuckle bandage against the top of your knuckle.
Knuckle bandages have a gauze pad in between 4 “wings” that wrap around your finger. Peel the backing paper off the bandage just enough so the gauze is exposed. Gently set the gauze against your wound so it’s completely covered.
If you don’t have a knuckle bandage on hand, you can cut the adhesive ends of a strip bandage in half to make the wings.
3-2. Remove the backing paper from one side to stick on the wings.
It’s easier to work with 2 of the wings at a time so they don’t stick to one another. Fully remove the backing paper from one side of the bandage. Slowly wrap the wings around your finger above and below your knuckle joint. Smooth the bandage out so there aren’t any raised areas or gaps.
The wings fit around your finger so you can easily bend your knuckle without the bandage coming loose or falling off.
3-3. Apply the last adhesive wings to your skin.
Take the backing paper off the other side of the bandage and throw it away. Then, pull the wings tight and wrap them around the other side of your finger. Make sure the bandage isn’t so tight that it cuts off your circulation.
If your bandage feels uncomfortable, try lifting up one of the wings and making it fit a little looser.
3-4. Replace your bandage whenever it gets wet.
If fluids from your wound soak through the gauze or if you get your hands wet, gently peel the bandage off your finger. Clean your wound and let it air out for a few minutes before you put your new bandage on. Once your wound fully heals, you can stop using bandages.
4. Bandaging Minor Wounds
4-1. Use a fingertip bandage on small cuts by your nails.
Fingertip bandages have an hourglass shape that fits better around your fingers without any excess hanging off. Peel off the backing paper on one side, and position the bandage so one side of the hourglass is over your nail. Remove the other piece of backing paper and wrap the bottom of the hourglass around your finger. Then, bend the gauze over your fingertip and wrap the remaining adhesive around your finger.
You can cut a large rectangular adhesive strip bandage into an hourglass shape if you don’t have one made for fingertips.
4-2. Use a butterfly bandage to hold together slices and cuts.
A butterfly bandage has two wider sticky adhesive strips connected by a thin, non-sticky strip. Peel off the backing off one side of the bandage and place it on one side of the cut. Pull the bandage tight so it closes up your wound, and stick the other adhesive onto the other side of the cut. The non-sticky center strip will sit directly over your wound.
Butterfly bandages are used for keeping a cut closed, not for absorbing blood or preventing infection.
You may need to use multiple butterfly bandages to hold a large cut closed.
If your cut is over a joint or cannot be closed, you may need to get stitches.
4-3. Use moleskin to bandage a blister.
Moleskin is a special type of foam-adhesive bandage used to prevent a blister from rubbing against anything. Remove the backing of the doughnut-shaped moleskin round, and apply it so that the blister sits inside the center cut-out. Place the round moleskin lid or an adhesive strip bandage over the top of the moleskin to cover the top of the blister to protect it if it pops.
You can make your own makeshift moleskin by taking layers of gauze slightly taller than the blister and cutting a hole out in the middle that’s the size of the blister. Put the gauze over your blister and top it with a piece of nonstick gauze.
4-4. Wrap an ACE bandage around a sprain.
ACE bandages are a type of compression wrap to help support a sprained ankle or treat wrist pain. Start the bandage roll on one side of your joint, and slowly wrap it up toward your body. Keep the bandage taut and overlap it by half as you wrap it. When you’re finished wrapping, press the end of the compression wrap firmly against itself to hold it in place, or secure it with clips.
Avoid wrapping the bandage so tightly that it cuts off your circulation. If you feel discomfort, undo and loosen the bandage.
5. Bandaging Serious Wounds
5-1. Apply a pressure bandage
A pressure bandage is a thick piece of padded gauze on the end of a long compression tape. Place the padded gauze directly over the wound so it’s completely covered. Then, pull the compression tape tight and wrap it over the gauze to apply pressure to the wound. Secure the end of the adhesive tape with clips to keep the gauze in place.
Pressure bandages are great to help apply firm pressure on the wound to help it stop bleeding in an emergency.
5-2. Fold a triangle bandage into a sling.
Triangle bandages unfold into a large, triangular shape so you can make a sling. Loop half of the bandage under your arm and around the back of your neck. Then, put the other half over the front of your arm and tie it into a knot at the shoulder. Pin any loose edges so they don’t hang loose.
You can also wrap a large dressing or wound with a triangle bandage for additional support.
5-3. Make a doughnut bandage for impalements or puncture wounds.
A doughnut bandage is wrapped into a thick O-shape to relieve pressure around an impaled object or deep puncture. Leave the impaled object in place if there is one, and carefully wrap a triangle bandage into a tight ring around it. Then, use surgical tape or gauze wrapped around the edges of the doughnut to hold it against your skin.
Do not wrap any gauze or tape over the center of the doughnut where the impaled object is located.
6. Best Practices
6-1. Wash your hands before you care for a wound.
Use soap and warm water to wash your hands any time you’re about to dress a wound so you don’t introduce bacteria.
For added protection, you can put on non-sterile gloves before caring for your wound.
6-2. Clean the wound with cool water and soap before you apply a bandage.
Use cool running water to rinse out any debris that’s in your wound. Wash your skin around the wound with mild hand soap, but don’t let any get into the wound itself so you don’t have any irritation. When you’re finished, pat your wound dry with a piece of gauze or paper towel.
Try to apply a bandage as soon as you clean your wound so there’s less chance of developing an infection.
Avoid using hydrogen peroxide, iodine, or rubbing alcohol to clean your wound since it could cause more irritation.
6-3. Apply petroleum jelly over the wound to prevent scarring.
Petroleum jelly helps keep your wound moisturized so it’s less likely to dry out. Gently spread a fingertip-sized amount of petroleum jelly into a thin layer over your entire wound. Wipe up any excess petroleum jelly with a clean towel.
You can instead apply an antibiotic cream to help prevent further infections, but petroleum jelly offers similar protection.
6-4. Go to a doctor if the bleeding won’t stop or there are signs of infections.
If you can’t stop the bleeding within 10 minutes, it’s a sign that the wound needs more serious treatment. If the wound is on your face, or if the edges look jagged or hang open, it’s another sign that you should have a doctor treat you. As you’re healing, watch for inflammation, redness, pus, numbness, or fever since that could mean that the wound is infected and needs a stronger antibiotic.
If you bandage a wound and it has still not begun to heal or causes significant pain after 24 hours, you should head to a doctor for help.
Tips
Keep a basic first aid kit handy. Keep the kit in an easy-to-reach place. Make a kit at home and put one in your car so you always have one on hand.
For a severe wound, always try to stop the bleeding first by applying pressure to the wound.
Warnings
Be on the lookout for infections. If you notice a grayish or yellow, foul-smelling discharge coming from the wound, a temperature above 100 °F (38 °C), intense throbbing or redness at the site, or red streaks radiating from your wound, seek medical attention.[30]

Knuckle Bandages\\n3-1. Press the gauze of a knuckle bandage against the top of your knuckle.\\nKnuckle bandages have a gauze pad in between 4 “wings” that wrap around your finger. Peel the backing paper off the bandage just enough so the gauze is exposed. Gently set the gauze against your wound so it’s completely covered.\\nIf you don’t have a knuckle bandage on hand, you can cut the adhesive ends of a strip bandage in half to make the wings.\\n3-2. Remove the backing paper from one side to stick on the wings.\\nIt’s easier to work with 2 of the wings at a time so they don’t stick to one another. Fully remove the backing paper from one side of the bandage. Slowly wrap the wings around your finger above and below your knuckle joint. Smooth the bandage out so there aren’t any raised areas or gaps.\\nThe wings fit around your finger so you can easily bend your knuckle without the bandage coming loose or falling off.\\n3-3. Apply the last adhesive wings to your skin.\\nTake the backing paper off the other side of the bandage and throw it away. Then, pull the wings tight and wrap them around the other side of your finger. Make sure the bandage isn’t so tight that it cuts off your circulation.\\nIf your bandage feels uncomfortable, try lifting up one of the wings and making it fit a little looser.\\n3-4. Replace your bandage whenever it gets wet.\\nIf fluids from your wound soak through the gauze or if you get your hands wet, gently peel the bandage off your finger. Clean your wound and let it air out for a few minutes before you put your new bandage on. Once your wound fully heals, you can stop using bandages.\\n4. Bandaging Minor Wounds\\n4-1. Use a fingertip bandage on small cuts by your nails.\\nFingertip bandages have an hourglass shape that fits better around your fingers without any excess hanging off. Peel off the backing paper on one side, and position the bandage so one side of the hourglass is over your nail. Remove the other piece of backing paper and wrap the bottom of the hourglass around your finger. Then, bend the gauze over your fingertip and wrap the remaining adhesive around your finger.\\nYou can cut a large rectangular adhesive strip bandage into an hourglass shape if you don’t have one made for fingertips.\\n4-2. Use a butterfly bandage to hold together slices and cuts.\\nA butterfly bandage has two wider sticky adhesive strips connected by a thin, non-sticky strip. Peel off the backing off one side of the bandage and place it on one side of the cut. Pull the bandage tight so it closes up your wound, and stick the other adhesive onto the other side of the cut. The non-sticky center strip will sit directly over your wound.\\nButterfly bandages are used for keeping a cut closed, not for absorbing blood or preventing infection.\\nYou may need to use multiple butterfly bandages to hold a large cut closed.\\nIf your cut is over a joint or cannot be closed, you may need to get stitches.\\n4-3. Use moleskin to bandage a blister.\\nMoleskin is a special type of foam-adhesive bandage used to prevent a blister from rubbing against anything. Remove the backing of the doughnut-shaped moleskin round, and apply it so that the blister sits inside the center cut-out. Place the round moleskin lid or an adhesive strip bandage over the top of the moleskin to cover the top of the blister to protect it if it pops.\\nYou can make your own makeshift moleskin by taking layers of gauze slightly taller than the blister and cutting a hole out in the middle that’s the size of the blister. Put the gauze over your blister and top it with a piece of nonstick gauze.\\n4-4. Wrap an ACE bandage around a sprain.\\nACE bandages are a type of compression wrap to help support a sprained ankle or treat wrist pain. Start the bandage roll on one side of your joint, and slowly wrap it up toward your body. Keep the bandage taut and overlap it by half as you wrap it. When you’re finished wrapping, press the end of the compression wrap firmly against itself to hold it in place, or secure it with clips.\\nAvoid wrapping the bandage so tightly that it cuts off your circulation. If you feel discomfort, undo and loosen the bandage.\\n5. Bandaging Serious Wounds\\n5-1. Apply a pressure bandage\\nA pressure bandage is a thick piece of padded gauze on the end of a long compression tape. Place the padded gauze directly over the wound so it’s completely covered. Then, pull the compression tape tight and wrap it over the gauze to apply pressure to the wound. Secure the end of the adhesive tape with clips to keep the gauze in place.\\nPressure bandages are great to help apply firm pressure on the wound to help it stop bleeding in an emergency.\\n5-2. Fold a triangle bandage into a sling.\\nTriangle bandages unfold into a large, triangular shape so you can make a sling. Loop half of the bandage under your arm and around the back of your neck. Then, put the other half over the front of your arm and tie it into a knot at the shoulder. Pin any loose edges so they don’t hang loose.\\nYou can also wrap a large dressing or wound with a triangle bandage for additional support.\\n5-3. Make a doughnut bandage for impalements or puncture wounds.\\nA doughnut bandage is wrapped into a thick O-shape to relieve pressure around an impaled object or deep puncture. Leave the impaled object in place if there is one, and carefully wrap a triangle bandage into a tight ring around it. Then, use surgical tape or gauze wrapped around the edges of the doughnut to hold it against your skin.\\nDo not wrap any gauze or tape over the center of the doughnut where the impaled object is located.\\n6. Best Practices\\n6-1. Wash your hands before you care for a wound.\\nUse soap and warm water to wash your hands any time you’re about to dress a wound so you don’t introduce bacteria.\\nFor added protection, you can put on non-sterile gloves before caring for your wound.\\n6-2. Clean the wound with cool water and soap before you apply a bandage.\\nUse cool running water to rinse out any debris that’s in your wound. Wash your skin around the wound with mild hand soap, but don’t let any get into the wound itself so you don’t have any irritation. When you’re finished, pat your wound dry with a piece of gauze or paper towel.\\nTry to apply a bandage as soon as you clean your wound so there’s less chance of developing an infection.\\nAvoid using hydrogen peroxide, iodine, or rubbing alcohol to clean your wound since it could cause more irritation.\\n6-3. Apply petroleum jelly over the wound to prevent scarring.\\nPetroleum jelly helps keep your wound moisturized so it’s less likely to dry out. Gently spread a fingertip-sized amount of petroleum jelly into a thin layer over your entire wound. Wipe up any excess petroleum jelly with a clean towel.\\nYou can instead apply an antibiotic cream to help prevent further infections, but petroleum jelly offers similar protection.\\n6-4. Go to a doctor if the bleeding won’t stop or there are signs of infections.\\nIf you can’t stop the bleeding within 10 minutes, it’s a sign that the wound needs more serious treatment. If the wound is on your face, or if the edges look jagged or hang open, it’s another sign that you should have a doctor treat you. As you’re healing, watch for inflammation, redness, pus, numbness, or fever since that could mean that the wound is infected and needs a stronger antibiotic.\\nIf you bandage a wound and it has still not begun to heal or causes significant pain after 24 hours, you should head to a doctor for help.\\nTips\\nKeep a basic first aid kit handy. Keep the kit in an easy-to-reach place. Make a kit at home and put one in your car so you always have one on hand.\\nFor a severe wound, always try to stop the bleeding first by applying pressure to the wound.\\nWarnings\\nBe on the lookout for infections. If you notice a grayish or yellow, foul-smelling discharge coming from the wound, a temperature above 100 °F (38 °C), intense throbbing or redness at the site, or red streaks radiating from your wound, seek medical attention.[30]\\nX\\nTrustworthy Source\\nMedlinePlus\\nCollection of medical information sourced from the US National Library of Medicine\\nGo to source\\nWatch for signs of shock, such as clammy bluish skin, rapid pulse and breathing, dizziness, and vomiting.

1,907 | How to Apply Dry Rub to Chicken | 1. Seasoning Your Chicken
1-1. Put the dry rub on the chicken any time before you prepare the meat.
Dry rub doesn’t tenderize the meat, so it’s okay to apply it to your chicken any length of time before you decide to cook it. Choose a time to season your chicken when it’s the most convenient for you, whether that’s a week before or the day you plan on cooking.
1-2. Pat your chicken dry with paper towels.
Make sure the chicken you’re using is completely defrosted before you put your dry rub on it. Take the chicken you plan on seasoning with the dry rub and set it inside a baking pan so you don’t spread any bacteria. Blot paper towels on each side of the chicken to absorb some of the excess juices and contaminants on its surface. Continue patting all sides of the chicken until the paper towels look clean after you blot them.
Always wash your hands after you handle raw chicken since it contains bacteria that could lead to food poisoning.
1-3. Drizzle a light layer of olive oil onto the chicken if you want the rub to stick better.
Olive oil helps the dry rub adhere to the meat so it’s less likely to fall off while you’re cooking it. Put a coin-sized amount of olive oil on the chicken and spread it evenly across the sides of the chicken. Only use a small amount of olive oil, or else the dry rub will run off the meat and you’ll lose the flavor.
You don’t need to use olive oil with your dry rub if you don’t want to.
If you don’t have olive oil, you can use any vegetable oil to help the dry rub stick.
1-4. Pour an even layer of the dry rub on each side of the chicken.
Use your nondominant hand to scoop the dry rub out from its container and put it directly onto the chicken. You can use as much or as little dry rub as you want, but usually 1 tablespoon (8 g) of dry rub for every 1 pound (450 g) of meat you’re cooking. Make sure you coat all sides of the chicken so the dry rub covers the entire piece of meat.
Avoid touching the chicken with the spoon you use to scoop if you want to save the dry rub later. Otherwise, you’ll contaminate the dry rub and you’ll need to throw it away.
1-5. Work the rub into the chicken with your dominant hand.
Apply pressure on the chick with your dominant hand and rub the spices into the meat with a kneading motion. Work with the grain of the meat so the dry rub sticks to all of the hard to reach areas on the chicken. Continue rubbing the spices into all sides of the meat until it’s completely coated.
Always try to keep one of your hands clean so you don’t accidentally contaminate other surfaces in your kitchen with bacteria.
You can leave the rub in a ⁄8 in (0.32 cm) crust on the meat, which will help lock in moisture so your chicken tastes juicier.
1-6. Store the chicken in a container with a lid if you don’t plan on cooking it right away.
If you don’t plan on cooking your chicken right away, set it in a container that has an airtight lid so bacteria can’t cross-contaminate other items. Put the seasoned chicken in your fridge and use it in about 1-2 days so the meat doesn’t spoil.
You can also use resealable plastic bags to store your chicken.
Avoid wrapping your chicken in plastic wrap, since the wrapping could remove some of the rub from the meat.
2. Choosing a Dry Rub
2-1. Use an all-purpose rub in any meal where you want flavorful chicken.
An all-purpose rub combines savory and spicy flavors to make a rub that works for any type of cuisine. If you want to make your own, try combining some woody herbs like paprika, black pepper, garlic and onion powder, oregano, thyme, salt, coriander, and cayenne pepper. Whisk the dry rub together until it’s thoroughly combined before storing it in an airtight container.
You can buy premixed all-purpose rub from your local supermarket or grilling specialty stores.
2-2. Choose a sweet and savory dry rub for a classic barbecue flavor.
Barbecued chicken usually has a sweet tang, so use brown sugar as the base for your rub. Mix in salt, paprika, pepper, cumin, onion and garlic powder, and cayenne pepper to give your rub more depth of flavor. Adjust the ratios of the rub you’re making so it’s as sweet or tangy as you want it.
2-3. Try an herbal dry rub if you want a simple, fresh taste.
Dried herbs work perfectly for seasoning chicken, especially if you want something that highlights the flavor of the meat. Combine equal parts brown sugar, salt, oregano, dried basil, and dried parsley in a mixing bowl and whisk them together to form your rub. Keep the rub in an airtight container to save it for use later.
Herbal dry rubs work great for Italian dishes.
2-4. Mix together a lemon pepper dry rub for hints of citrus and spice.
Lemon pepper adds hints of sour and spice to your chicken, and it pairs well with vegetables. Combine lemon pepper, salt, garlic and onion powder, basil, oregano, parsley, and paprika in a bowl and use a whisk to combine them. Keep the spices in an airtight jar or container until you plan on using it.
2-5. Season your chicken with a spicy dry rub if you want it to have a little kick.
Mix together paprika, thyme, powder, salt, onion powder, and black pepper in a bowl with a whisk until they’re thoroughly combined. A spicy dry rub is perfect if you want to make chicken wings or tacos.
Use only a little dry rub at first so you don’t make your chicken too spicy.
Tips
Experiment with mixing your own flavors for dry rubs until you find a combination and ratio of ingredients you like.
Warnings
Always wash your hands after you handle chicken since you could spread harmful bacteria.[12]

1,908 | How to Apply Duracoat | 1. Steps
1-1. Cover the surface where you will be working with newspaper.
1-2. Dis-assemble the entire firearm and clean all pieces thoroughly, making sure there is no trace of oil on any piece.
One of the best cleaners you can use for this job is MEK or methyl ethyl ketone, an industrial solvent. Pour MEK into a disposable aluminum foil pan and soak the parts. If necessary, use air pressure, brushes or rags to reach every surface of the firearm.
1-3. Use denatured alcohol for a final wipe down of the parts.
Even a single drop of oil will cause the Duracoat to peel.
1-4. Use blue painter's tape to mask off any parts that will not be painted.
1-5. Snip pieces of the wire to make hooks to hang the parts to dry.
This will also facilitate spraying Duracoat and allowing drying time between coats.
A pegboard will work as a holder for hanging the parts. Cover the pegboard with heavy plastic to protect the surface from over spray.
1-6. Pour lacquer thinner into a foil pan.
In case of a painting mistake, dip the part into the pan to remove the paint. You can also use it to clear the air-sprayer tip if necessary or to clean your hands of excess paint.
1-7. Set up the air sprayer and set the compressor to 30 psi.
1-8. Mix the Duracoat paints to get the color you desire.
Test spray on a scrap piece of metal to check color.
1-9. Combine 1 part Duracoat Hardener to 12 parts Duracoat paint.
Shake thoroughly for at least 3 minutes, and pour into the paint receptacle on the air-sprayer.
1-10. Hold spray tip 4 to 8 inches (10.2 to 20.3 cm) from the parts and spray Duracoat with sweeping passes from left to right.
You can go back for another pass or 2 before allowing it to dry. The ideal final thickness of Duracoat should be 1 mil, applied in 1 to 3 passes.
When spraying Duracoat on parts that receive more wear, such as parts that rub against holsters and slings, aim for a coating 1.5 mil for added endurance.
1-11. Set parts aside to dry and cure.
They will be dry enough for light use in 24 hours, but ideally they should be allowed to dry for 2 weeks.
1-12. Clean up work area.
Do not dispose of Duracoat and other chemicals in sewer lines. If you will not use up the Duracoat within 18 months, take to a licensed disposal facility.
Tips
If you do not own a spray gun set-up, Duracoat has a kit that includes a small air gun suitable for coverage of 1 or 2 firearms.
Warnings
Remove any containers of silicon from the area before spraying Duracoat as it causes Duracoat to bubble, even if it is in a sealed container in the same room.
Do not use Duracoat indoors. If used in outbuildings such as a garage, make sure the overhead doors are open and there is good ventilation. A fan set in a window and forcing the inside air outside will work.

1,909 | How to Apply Dyco Pool Deck Paint | 1. Repairing and Cleaning the Area
1-1. Fill in any holes or cracks in the concrete with a concrete repair compound.
Sweep away any loose debris from around damaged areas of the concrete with a stiff-bristled brush. Mix a concrete repair compound according to the manufacturer’s instructions and fill in all holes and cracks, then let the compound dry for 24 hours.
Dyco pool deck acrylic stain is only for concrete applications. It is not meant for painting wooden pool decks or surfaces made of anything other than concrete.
1-2. Scrub the pool deck with a bleach solution and a stiff-bristled brush.
Mix 1 part bleach with 4 parts water in a bucket. Start at 1 side of the pool deck and dip a long-handled, stiff-bristled brush into the cleaning solution or pour some out onto the concrete to wet a small area. Scrub the concrete vigorously using back and forth motions to clean it.
This will get rid of dirt, dust, oils, soap film, and any other residues stuck to the concrete pool deck to prepare it for the stain.
Don’t use a brush that has metal bristles or you could scratch and damage the concrete.
Note that it is not necessary to prime the concrete in any way before you apply the stain. You just have to clean it.
1-3. Rinse the pool deck with a hose after you’re done cleaning it.
Start at 1 side of the pool deck and turn on the hose. Spray down the entire pool deck thoroughly by moving the hose side to side and walking slowly forward until it is totally rinsed.
This will clean off the bleach solution you used to scrub the concrete and rinse away any remaining loose debris.
1-4. Scrub any mold or mildew with a mold and mildew removal liquid.
Put on rubber gloves and a face mask. Apply the mold and mildew removal product to affected areas of the concrete and scrub it using a stiff-bristled brush or a heavy-duty sponge until the spots are gone.
Mold and mildew removers typically come in a spray bottle, so you just have to spray the solution directly onto the concrete to apply it.
1-5. Let the pool deck dry for 1-2 days before you apply the stain.
Don’t apply Dyco pool deck acrylic stain to damp concrete. Wait at least 1 full day and up to 2 days for the concrete to completely dry after cleaning it.
If it happens to rain while you are waiting for the concrete to dry, wait at least 1 day after the rain to start applying the acrylic stain.
2. Painting the Concrete
2-1. Use 1 gallon (3.78 L) of stain per 175–225 sq ft (16.3–20.9 m) of concrete.
The porosity of the concrete and how thickly you apply the coats affects how much stain you need. Plan on using 1 gallon (3.78 L) of Dyco pool deck acrylic stain if the total surface area you want to cover is between 175 sq ft (16.3 m) and 225 sq ft (20.9 m).
Note that if the concrete pool deck is new, you must wait at least 30 days after it was poured before painting it to allow the concrete plenty of time to cure.
2-2. Mix the stain thoroughly with a paint mixing stick.
Open up the can of Dyco pool deck acrylic stain. Insert a wooden mixing stick into the paint and stir it vigorously, using circular motions, until it is a uniform color and consistency.
This ensures that the color and consistency of the finish will look good.
Most home improvement centers or paint supply stores will give you a wooden mixing stick when you buy paint or stain.
Don’t attempt to thin the stain out in any way or it will not coat the concrete well. The stain is ready to use straight out of the can.
2-3. Coat a long-handled 6 in (15 cm) nap roller in stain.
Attach a 6 in (15 cm) paint roller to a telescopic pole handle and fill the recessed part of a paint tray with pool deck acrylic stain. Dip the roller in the stain and roll it back and forth on the textured part of the tray to cover it evenly in stain and remove any excess.
If your pool deck is particularly wide or narrow, you can use a smaller or larger paint roller to get the coverage you desire. A 6 in (15 cm) roller is pretty easy to use on surfaces of all widths, but use whatever is most comfortable and efficient for you.
2-4. Roll on
Start at 1 corner of the pool deck, then work your way back and all the way around the pool deck until you get back to where you started. Roll your paint roller back and forth over the concrete without extending your arms further than you can comfortably reach. Overlap your strokes by 0.5–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) to get complete coverage.
Aim to use just enough stain to cover the concrete with a thin coat of color, rather than slathering it on and changing the texture of the concrete. If you use too much stain, it can make the pool deck more slippery.
If you find yourself bending over as you work, extend the telescopic pole handle so you can stand up straight and don’t hurt your back.
2-5. Let the first coat of stain dry for at least 2 hours.
Wait 2 hours for the first coat to cure enough to apply a second coat. Don’t ever apply a second coat right away or the stain will not cure correctly and you will end up with a bad finish.
If you are working in high humidity, the stain can take longer to dry. Give it another 1-2 hours just to be safe if conditions are humid. Check that the first cost is dry to the touch before you apply the second coat.
2-6. Use your paint roller to apply a second coat of stain using even strokes.
Start in the same corner you started applying the first coat in. Use your paint roller to roll on the stain in comfortable, even, overlapping strokes. Work your way back and around the pool deck until you are finished applying the second coat.
If you want to give the pool deck’s finish more grip, you can mix in Dyco skid gard additive with the final coat of stain. This will make it harder to slip on areas like steps, inclined surfaces, and spots that get wet.
2-7. Let the stain dry for at least 4 hours before walking on the surface.
The stain will be dry to the touch in about 2 hours and ready to handle foot traffic in about 4 hours. Wait at least 4 hours after you finish the second coat before you or anyone else walks on top of the concrete surface.

1,910 | How to Apply Egyptian Eye Makeup | 1. Steps
1-1. Draw your desired eyebrow shape.
Use an eyebrow with a small strokes, rather than drawing in a full stroke. It gives you a more natural and full look.
1-2. Brush your eyebrow with an eyebrow brush to blend the color with your natural eyebrows.
1-3. Clean off the sides of your eyebrows with concealer.
Put concealer on the top and bottom of your eyebrow and blend it with concealer brush to give it a clean look.
1-4. Set your desired eyebrow shape with the eyebrow gel.
1-5. Prime the eyelids so the eyeshadow color can pop.
Put concealer on top of it.
1-6. Take a small piece of tape and line the side of your eyes with an angled shape, up to the end of your eyebrow.
This will give you clean and sharp eye shadow line.
1-7. Take gel eyeliner and make a “V” shape on the middle of the eyelid.
Start at the top of your eyeball and go to end of the eyelid.
1-8. Blend that line with navy blue eye shadow.
Use smudge brush to blend the black eyeliner and blue eyeshadow together. You can apply your own choice of eye shadow.
1-9. Apply the color you want to put on the middle of the eyelid.
Blend it with the previous shadow with medium eyeshadow brush. Blend both eye shadows with large eye shadow brush so there is no sharp line and it gives a more smokey effect to your eyes.
1-10. Get a glitter shadow and gently apply it to the first half of the eyelid, near to the tear duct.
This will make your eyes look more awake and give your shadow a dimensional look.
1-11. Draw a winged line with your gel or liquid eyeliner.
Make the end a little longer, which will make your eyes look bold.
1-12. Take the tape off and draw a line on bottom water line with nude pencil.
End the water line with black eyeliner. Don't connect it with top eyeliner but run parallel to that top eyeliner line, leaving a little space in between both lines.
1-13. Grab your glitter eyeliner and draw a line in the middle of both top and bottom eye liner.
1-14. Curl your lashes with lash curler.
Give it 2 or 3 presses.
1-15. Get your false eyelashes.
You can chose between thick or natural shape. Glue them with your eye lash. This step is optional, only if you want to get the bold look.
1-16. Apply a coat of mascara to blend them with natural lashes.
1-17. Clean up your side of eye if you have any smudges.
You are all done!
Tips
Try to keep your brows as natural as possible. Egyptian women had very striking and bold brows that were usually unruly, so let your undone brows shine!
To get a better result from eyelash curler, put it under your hair blow dryer for few seconds and it will give a curled lashes then usual.
If you don't have eye primer, you can use concealer instead.

1,911 | How to Apply Elastomeric Paint | 1. Preparing the Surface for Paint
1-1. Power wash the surface for a sure clean.
The best way to ensure your surface is clean is to power wash it at a pressure of 2,000 to 2,500 psi. It's always a good idea to test the pressure on your surface, because it can cause damage. You may need to use a lower pressure or another cleaning method if washing at these pressure levels causes damage.
Don't add cleaner or bleach to the water when power washing.
1-2. Use a stiff broom or wire brush if you don't have a power washer.
Another option for cleaning the surface is to brush the dirt away. You will need to use a strong brush, such as a wire brush or sturdy broom, and you may still need to wash it with water or a cleaner when you're done.
1-3. Try a cleaner designed for paint preparation if needed.
If you do need to use a cleaner on the surface, pick one that's meant to clean the surface before painting, such as trisodium phosphate which removes oxidation. Apply the cleaner to the surface according to the bottle's directions. Thoroughly rinse the product off so you don't leave any on the surface.
1-4. Test for cleanliness after the surface dries.
The area needs to air dry before you make sure it's clean or try to paint. Leave it to dry out for at least an hour or so, and then perform a tape test to check if it's clean. Put a strip of masking tape on the surface you plan to paint. Pull off the tape and examine the sticky side. If you see dirt or contaminants, your wall needs further cleaning.
1-5. Seal cracks larger than ⁄16 inch (0.16 cm) with caulk.
While elastomeric paint does fill in smaller cracks, you should fill in most cracks with acrylic or siliconized caulk. Use a caulk gun to fill the crack, and then smooth it out with a putty knife. If you're filling in a large crack, use layers to fill it in, letting it dry in between.
Let the caulk dry overnight. If the caulk isn't flat after drying, sand it down until it is.
Avoid using pure silicone caulks.
1-6. Apply a sealer as needed.
If you're working with a porous or chalky surface, you may need to apply a sealer or primer. Similarly, if you're working with newer masonry (less than a month old), you should also apply a sealer. Apply 1-2 coats to the surface, based on what the manufacturer's instructions say.
2. Determing How Much Paint You'll Need
2-1. Divide the area into simple shapes.
First, determine the square footage or meterage of the space you're covering. Divide it into simple shapes as needed, such as rectangles and triangles, and then measure each piece. You can round up to the next whole foot or meter to make it easier.
For instance, say you're covering 2 walls that are 20 by 12 feet (6.1 by 3.7 m), 2 walls that are 15 by 12 feet (4.6 by 3.7 m), and a triangle that has a base of 15 feet (4.6 m) and a height of 8 feet (2.4 m).
2-2. Calculate the area of each simple shape.
Now, use the measurements to find the area of each shape. To find the area of a square or rectangle, multiply the length by the height. For a triangle that has 2 equal sides, multiply the length by the height and divide by 2.
To find the square footage or meterage (area) of the first 2 walls, multiply the length by the height: 20 feet (6.1 m) x 12 feet (3.7 m) = 240 square feet or 22.6 square meters. Multiply that by 2 to get the area for the first 2 walls: 480 square feet or 45.2 square meters.
Find the area of the second 2 walls: 15 feet (4.6 m) x 12 feet (3.7 m) = 180 square feet or 17 square meters. Multiply by 2 for the 2 walls to get 360 square feet or 34 square meters.
For the triangle, multiply the length times the height, and then divide by 2 to find the area: 15 feet (4.6 m) x 8 feet (2.4 m) = 120 square feet or 11 square meters / 2 = 60 square feet or 5.5 square meters.
2-3. Add up your simple shape areas to get the total area.
Once you've figured out each area, add them all together to determine the square footage or meterage of the area you want to paint. In this case, add the following: 480 ft (45.2 m) + 360 ft (34 m) + 60 ft (5.5 m) = 900 ft (84.7 m).
Even if you've been rounding up your figures, you still may want to add 5% - 10% to your total -- you don't want to run out of paint in the middle of the job!
2-4. Apply your calculations to buying paint.
At the recommended thickness, you'll need 1 55-pound (25-kilogram) pail to cover 250 to 375 ft (23 to 35 m) for 1 coat on a porous surface, which you'll need to double for the second coat. On a smooth, filled-in surface, you'll need 1 55-pound (25-kilogram) pail to cover 700 to 800 ft (65 to 75 m) for 1 coat. Again, you'll need to double the amount.
Double your square footage/meterage for 2 coats, then divide by the average square footage/meterage 1 pail covers: 900 ft (84.7 m) x 2 = 1,800 ft (169.4 m) / 312.5 ft (29 m) = 5.8. Round up to get 6 pails.
Do the same for a smooth surface: 900 ft (84.7 m) x 2= 1,800 ft (169.4 m); 1,800 ft (169.4 m) / 750 ft (70 m) = 2.4. Round up to 2.5 or 3 pails.
Remember to round up to make sure you have enough paint.
3. Painting the Surface with Elastomeric Paint
3-1. Wait for ideal conditions.
The temperature must be over 40 °F (4 °C) for the paint to dry properly. Also, it's best to work in dry conditions. If you can't, you'll need to protect the area from rain with an awning or tarp so it doesn't get wet. If it's foggy or dewy, you also should wait to do the work.
Painting in hot, humid weather and direct sunlight may also lead to problems. It can affect the drying process and the final look of the paint.
3-2. Mix the paint with a stir stick.
Like any paint, elastomeric paint may settle a bit over time. You need to mix it with a paint stick so it has the same consistency throughout. Try not to create bubbles in the mixture.
You may need to thin it a bit if you're spraying it on, but never add more than about 16 fluid ounces (470 ml) per pail. You will also need to strain the paint with a paint strainer for spray applications.
3-3. Start with a damp brush or roller.
Use a latex brush or roller to apply the paint. Before you begin, get the brush or roller wet, and then squeeze out the extra water. If you have any areas that might have dust, rub some elastomeric on with a floor brush to make the elastomeric stick better (elastomeric will not stick to dust).
3-4. Work in small areas to apply the paint with a "V" shape.
Roll or brush the paint on. Paint in a "v" shape to get better coverage. Make sure you're not leaving any areas unpainted.If you're using a sprayer, go over the area in a consistent motion, making sure you cover all of it in an even coat.
3-5. Create thick coats of paint.
If you put polyurethane mesh (which is sold in rolls of 6 inches up to rolls of 4 feet) over the first coat it will prevent the elastomeric from cracking. Apply the paint at the thickness directed by the manufacturer. The coats for this paint are relatively thick, which is what fills in some cracks and provides weatherproofing. However, you must pay attention to the thickness of the paint to get these benefits. The best way to achieve the correct thickness is to follow the manufacturer's instructions for applying the paint.'
You can buy machines that measure thickness, but they tend to be somewhat expensive if you're just doing 1 paint project.
3-6. Apply the second coat after the first one dries.
Wait for the first coat to dry, which should take about 4 to 6 hours. Once it does, apply the second coat in the same way you applied the first. Let it dry as well.
3-7. Apply a conventional paint on top if you want a darker color.
Elastomeric paints don't do well in dark colors. They have a tendency to take on a chalky appearance, particularly when in direct sun. Because of this tendency, you won't find many dark colors in this type of paint. If you want a darker color, apply 2 coats of a conventional paint, such as 100% acrylic latex flat or satin-finish exterior paint, over the elastomeric paint.

It can affect the drying process and the final look of the paint.\\n3-2. Mix the paint with a stir stick.\\nLike any paint, elastomeric paint may settle a bit over time. You need to mix it with a paint stick so it has the same consistency throughout. Try not to create bubbles in the mixture.\\nYou may need to thin it a bit if you're spraying it on, but never add more than about 16 fluid ounces (470 ml) per pail. You will also need to strain the paint with a paint strainer for spray applications.\\n3-3. Start with a damp brush or roller.\\nUse a latex brush or roller to apply the paint. Before you begin, get the brush or roller wet, and then squeeze out the extra water. If you have any areas that might have dust, rub some elastomeric on with a floor brush to make the elastomeric stick better (elastomeric will not stick to dust).\\n3-4. Work in small areas to apply the paint with a \\\"V\\\" shape.\\nRoll or brush the paint on. Paint in a \\\"v\\\" shape to get better coverage. Make sure you're not leaving any areas unpainted.If you're using a sprayer, go over the area in a consistent motion, making sure you cover all of it in an even coat.\\n3-5. Create thick coats of paint.\\nIf you put polyurethane mesh (which is sold in rolls of 6 inches up to rolls of 4 feet) over the first coat it will prevent the elastomeric from cracking. Apply the paint at the thickness directed by the manufacturer. The coats for this paint are relatively thick, which is what fills in some cracks and provides weatherproofing. However, you must pay attention to the thickness of the paint to get these benefits. The best way to achieve the correct thickness is to follow the manufacturer's instructions for applying the paint.'\\nYou can buy machines that measure thickness, but they tend to be somewhat expensive if you're just doing 1 paint project.\\n3-6. Apply the second coat after the first one dries.\\nWait for the first coat to dry, which should take about 4 to 6 hours. Once it does, apply the second coat in the same way you applied the first. Let it dry as well.\\n3-7. Apply a conventional paint on top if you want a darker color.\\nElastomeric paints don't do well in dark colors. They have a tendency to take on a chalky appearance, particularly when in direct sun. Because of this tendency, you won't find many dark colors in this type of paint.

1,912 | How to Apply Epoxy on Wood | 1. Sanding and Positioning the Wood
1-1. Sand the wood to create a flat, smooth surface.
If the piece of wood you plan on coating in epoxy is rough or uneven, use a sandpaper grit between 120 and 220 to sand the wood. Create an even, smooth surface so the epoxy will go on effortlessly.
Sand the wood going with the grain to create the smoothest surface.
1-2. Remove the dust and dirt from the wood.
Wipe off any dirt or dust from sanding the wood using a clean microfiber cloth. If you choose to dampen the cloth to remove the dust, let the wood dry out completely before coating it in epoxy.
Use a mini vacuum or brush to remove the excess dust, if you'd like.
1-3. Attach painter’s tape to the back of the wood to catch epoxy drips.
Turn your piece of wood over and set it on a flat surface. Put painter’s tape along the perimeter of the back of the wood, pressing down firmly to make sure the epoxy won’t leak under it. This prevents drips from forming on the underside of the wood when you do your pour.
The tape only needs to go along the edges of the back of the wood.
1-4. Protect your surfaces from the epoxy using cardboard or plastic.
Choose an even surface to do your project on, like a kitchen table or work table. Cover the surface with thick, even cardboard or a piece of plastic so the epoxy doesn’t ruin your table.
If you’re covering the table in plastic, consider using painter’s tape to secure the plastic to the table so it doesn’t move around.
Use a couple of layers of cardboard or plastic, just in case.
1-5. Place the wood on pedestal objects so it’s not touching the surface.
These could be things like cups turned upside down or wooden blocks–any 2 or 3 objects that are flat, even, and tall enough to raise the wood off of the table. Situate the wood on the objects so it’s hovering over the surface with the side that will be coated in epoxy facing upwards.
Metal cans or cups from the kitchen that are the same height are great options.
2. Mixing the Epoxy
2-1. Mix the epoxy in a well-ventilated, dust-free environment.
Many types of epoxy have a strong smell, making it important to do the mixing and pouring in an area that gets plenty of fresh air. It’s also important to do this in a dust-free area so the dust doesn’t mix in with the epoxy and create a cloudy, dirty coating.
Avoid mixing the epoxy in an area that’s chilly, or below 65 °F (18 °C), for the best results.
2-2. Measure the resin and hardener into separate disposable cups.
Different types of epoxy have different ratios of resin to hardener, so follow the instructions carefully to be sure you pour the correct amount of each. Pour the resin into one disposable cup and the hardener into another.
Most companies will sell the resin and hardener together.
Plastic cups are great to use because their indentations make the resin and hardener easier to measure.
The ratios will be labeled on the package and are often either 1:1, 2:1, or 4:1.
Wear gloves to make sure your skin doesn’t come in contact with the resin and hardener.
2-3. Combine the resin and hardener into the same cup.
Once they’re properly measured, pour the resin and hardener into the same disposable cup to begin mixing them together. Use a plastic or wood rod to scrape the sides of the cup so that you get all of the resin and hardener out of each container.
Either pour the resin into the hardener or the hardener into the resin, whichever is easiest.
2-4. Stir the two ingredients together slowly for 5 minutes.
Use the plastic or wooden rod to slowly stir the resin and hardener together. Avoid stirring too vigorously or quickly so you don't create air bubbles. Set a timer and continue stirring for 5 minutes.
If you do see air bubbles forming while you're stirring, don't worry—these can be removed later on using heat.
3. Covering Wood in a Layer of Epoxy
3-1. Pour the epoxy over the wood starting in the center.
After the epoxy is all mixed, pour it over the wood carefully. As this is the first layer, don’t worry if it’s not perfectly even. Start in the middle and pour enough to cover the entire piece of wood in a thin layer.
Pour the epoxy onto the wood as soon as you mix it because it doesn’t have a lot of time before it starts to harden.
It doesn't matter how you pour the epoxy on the wood during the first layer, just as long as it covers the whole piece of wood.
Some people like to pour a large pile of epoxy in the middle of the wood and spread it out, while others pour thin streams of epoxy all around the entire piece of wood.
3-2. Use a foam brush to pull the epoxy towards the edges of the wood.
Place the foam brush in the puddle of epoxy and begin using the brush to pull the epoxy over the edges using back and forth motions. Try to create as even of a layer of epoxy as possible, making sure the whole piece of wood is coated.
Wipe off any excess epoxy from the sides using the foam brush.
3-3. Get rid of air bubbles by moving a heat source over the epoxy.
Air bubbles are an inevitable part of pouring epoxy, but you can get rid of them using a heat gun, torch, or hairdryer. Turn the heat source on and hold it roughly 6–10 inches (15–25 cm) from the epoxy’s surface to pop the bubbles. Move the heat source back and forth slowly over the surface until you see the bubbles pop.
Continue moving the heat source instead of holding it in one place or you could burn the epoxy.
3-4. Let the first coat sit for 4 hours.
Set a timer for 4 hours and let the first coat of epoxy begin to harden. While it won’t be completely dry and hard, it should feel tacky as it cures, letting you know it’s time for a second coat.
If you see more air bubbles within the first 30 minutes, use your desired heat source to pop them if possible.
3-5. Apply an additional coat of epoxy for extra protection.
Mix another batch of epoxy using the correct ratio of resin to hardener, just as you did with the first one. Pour this coat into the center of the piece of wood before taking a spatula or spreader and creating an even surface. Drag the spatula through the epoxy slowly, pulling it to the edges of the wood and creating an even layer. Pull the spatula or spreader back and forth over the entire piece of wood as many times as it takes to form a flat layer of epoxy.
If you don't have a spatula to use, any other straight, hard surface will work to drag the epoxy across the wood evenly.
Pour enough epoxy to cover the edges of the wood as well, wiping up any excess or drips using the foam brush.
Using a foam brush to drag the final coat of epoxy over the wood won't create as even of a surface as a plastic spreader or other hard, flat object.
3-6. Wait 24 hours for the epoxy to harden before removing the painter’s tape.
Epoxy takes 24-36 hours to completely harden. Once it’s hardened to the touch, flip the piece of wood over carefully and pull off the painter’s tape to reveal your beautiful epoxy-coated wood.
Avoid touching or moving the wood as the epoxy is hardening to make sure it isn't messed up.
Tips
Any type of craft epoxy or epoxy resin that you purchase as a two-part kit will work well on wood, though it's best to choose a non-toxic one if possible to help prevent breathing in unhealthy fumes as you pour. If you want to be able to see the wood through the layers of epoxy, choose an epoxy labeled as "clear."

As this is the first layer, don’t worry if it’s not perfectly even. Start in the middle and pour enough to cover the entire piece of wood in a thin layer.\\nPour the epoxy onto the wood as soon as you mix it because it doesn’t have a lot of time before it starts to harden.\\nIt doesn't matter how you pour the epoxy on the wood during the first layer, just as long as it covers the whole piece of wood.\\nSome people like to pour a large pile of epoxy in the middle of the wood and spread it out, while others pour thin streams of epoxy all around the entire piece of wood.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Use a foam brush to pull the epoxy towards the edges of the wood.\", \"描述\": \"Place the foam brush in the puddle of epoxy and begin using the brush to pull the epoxy over the edges using back and forth motions.

Turn the heat source on and hold it roughly 6–10 inches (15–25 cm) from the epoxy’s surface to pop the bubbles.
