Dry skin can be itchy and it hurts once the skin cracks. During summer months my skin craves just as much moisturization as it does during winter months. It's very difficult for me to find a lotion or moisturizer that my skin will not overly absorb. When this happens, my skin is only moisturized temporarily and then it becomes thirsty again. Recently I expressed how much I like what Amalactin does for my skin. Today I'm all into a new product I discovered called Love Blossoms. It's a Cherry A...

Ombre Lips are everything if you like changing things up with lip color. According to some Bloggers, models on the runway love to wear the look and for many of them larger lips are what inspired the trend. Drag Queens are often given credit for inspiring the look but anyone who loves makeup may have at some point added double color to their lips to either darken a lip color or create an illusion. One tip that has helped me to find fun in wearing two colors is to forget about using a lip penci...

This how to video will help you achieve your best look no matter what type of finish you are seeking. Just keep in mind that variety always works...

Attending The Small Business Expo really got me pumped about what I do as a Blogger here on Abornewords. Creating content, organizing and managing it takes a lot of hard work. Since I am pursuing more ways to create earning opportunities, I realize I have to start making more appearances and accepting invitations when I get them. That's why when I received a call from Myesha, a Mary Kay Representative who sells under the guidance of Director Gina Allen, stating that I was the winner of a ...

Since I work a seasonal, contracted job for 6 months every year, I am working less and so pleased I have a little extra time to indulge in other things, until I am working full time again. What am I doing? Well stargazing the people and brands I follow and of course Blogging to create awareness. Duh, as if I had to share that right? Anyway, I introduced Exotic Dancer, Niya On Fire a couple of months ago and recently noticed a video tutorial that will help you to create glittery eyes like Niya...

When you think Tyra Beauty, how could you not think Supermodels and High Fashion right? The word model implies beautiful, even if it's like Tyra says...eccentric or odd. Always remember, being beautiful does not always have to fit into Hollywoids or Western Standards of beauty. Even with model power behind her Tyra Beauty Brand, Tyra has to keep up with the likes of K Beauty and the Ka'iors of the world. Here's a look at a few products available at Ulta Beauty, a store I visit on occasion.

When you are a 20 years old, you sometimes neglect your body by omitting exercise and may hardly even think about using anti-aging products and may even see it as unimportant. Thankfully when I was around 20 or so I was seriously thinking about pursuing a career in the Medical Field and by the time I was in, I was required to learn the Intergrumentary System down to the atom.

A lot changed for the better in my life since last December and I would like to give all glory to God. Abornewords is constantly growing and new opportunities to partner with brands and continue creating brand awareness are happening more and more. Today, I want to make use of a lyrics video I created last year. It is a video that is my official December Song and for me it's a little bit better than the 12 days of Christmas Song, simply because I connected it to a well known Celebrity and n...

For guys there are some number 1 picks that should never be excluded from style choices. Getting decked out in a suit and adding in the necessities like a bow tie, a good cologne and a nice pair of shoes is the way to ensure the mirror reflects the total package. For purposes of simplicity, this fashion blueprint does not include the suit. However, since skincare should be an integral part of any routine, we will share a slideshow of Allure Magazine's Best Picks For Men.

Before we get into the deets (details), let's explore the idea of seasonal products and how to determine if your bronzer needs to be categorized as a summer only product.

Tarte's Beauty Brand is one that I have used and found to be very effective for what I need throughout the year. Using products that are considered seasonal is totally up to the individual user and will depend on your own beauty needs and routine norms.

Thanks to an email subscription and my own healthy curiosity to be in the know, I decided to watch a video that shows off the Becca Brand, drawing attention to lips and cheeks. I'm glad I did too! Here's why.
