If your makeup routine consists only of basic foundation, curling your eyelashes, and swiping on lipstick, then you're not pushing your cosmetics to their most gorgeous potential.
Fit bodies are made, gals, not born (unless your name happens to be Megan Fox). Most of us have some trouble getting the flab off our bellies because the fat there is the last to go when you're dieting and exercising to lose weight (sucks, we know). So how do you conquer the ab region without subjecting yourself to 3,000 crunches?
Eye makeup doesn't have to be super complicated or take half an afternoon to do in order to be bold and beautiful. In fact, there are many ways you can simplify your makeup routine, cut out colors, and save time while still making your eyes pop.
So you've finally created a nice body-toning workout that consists of all the exercise your body needs to burn calories and stay slim: Push-ups, bicycle crunches, thigh lifts, lateral arm lifts, and shoulder presses. But then arises the second biggest problem after figuring out an exercise routine: How many reps of each do you do?
Neutral, universally flattering colors should be the bread and butter of both your makeup collection and makeup routine. Not that we're not a fan of bright and bold hues; it's just that neutrals like taupe, ecru, and smokey grays make every gal look fantastic, no matter her skin tone or eye color.
No pain, no gain honeys! Though there exist a few genetically gifted women in this world (we're looking at you, Megan Fox), the rest of us have to commit to eating right and exercising in order to maintain fabulous bodies. It isn't fun, but sticking to a strict diet and workout routine does produce a pretty sexy body.
We love yoga: it prepares us for the day ahead and stretches out any residual tension in our shoulders and back. But waking up at 6 AM in the morning and doing that first down dog can be...rough. That's why it's so important to stretch before you start your morning yoga routine.
When you get tired of doing the same black and brown smokey eyes and need something new to refresh your makeup routine and look, take a gander at this makeup tutorial by MissChievous. Rather than teach you a look that'll make you blend in with the crowd at work, MissChievous shows you how to create an extremely dramatic puple makeup look that incorporates highly pigmented lavender and royal purple shadow along with heavy falsies and blue shimmer.
You probably already have a plethora of white t-shirts and plain blue jeans, and while having outfits you can lean on no matter the time of day or occasion, going with the same neutral tones and combinations gets a bit boring (not to mention visually dull) after a while.

You may think that, like cooking, there exists a set number of static routines/recipes without much innovation or change. But new exercises are invented all the time.
If you're finding that performing your usual push up routine is not giving you results anymore (your muscles adjust to any new exercise you perform within a week, making the results less noticeable), try the clapping push up.
Despite what the name may imply, triceps kickbacks don't involve kicking of any sort. Rather, this tricep-sculpting exercise move involves getting down to a near squat position and bringing a dumbbell forward and back, keeping the shoulders stead and down.

In a sense, cardio intervals are God's gift to lazy exercisers everywhere. Why? Well, rather than commiting yourself to an excrutiatingly long exercise routine every day, you can actually cut down the time you exercise in half if you add cardio intervals.
Strength training is the bread and butter of a good exercise routine, especially if you're an athelete. Whether your sport requires more speed (sprinting) or raw physical power (football), having strong muscles that can easily be stretched is important for keeping vital and fit.
