DIY Beauty Tips for Busy Moms

Have you ever had a moment while looking through a photo album or scrapbook where you found yourself
looking at a picture and asking, “Where have you been?” and the person that you’re talking to is you? It
seems like light years ago since you had time to play the adult version of “dress up” while getting ready for
a date or party, complete with a full face of make-up. And while you’re certainly glad to be secure enough
in yourself to not feel like you need cosmetics before being suitable for public viewing, it’s still nice to use
them to do just what they were created for: enhance some of your best features.

But now that you’re a mom, you just don’t have the same kind of time that you used to and so you’re not
sure how you can cut a 30-minute make-up face down to five or 10 minutes without it looking like your
child painted your face while you were catching a quick cat nap.

Here’s your lucky day.

Get a foundation stick. If you don’t have time to do anything else, at least make sure that your skin looks
smooth and even. A great way to do that is by purchasing some foundation that comes in a convenient
stick. Simply draw a line across your forehead, cheeks and chin and disperse it throughout the rest of your
face until it’s blended. Being that you’re a mom, it’s pretty much wishful thinking that it won’t smear or
rub off on either your child or you, so make sure to get one that lasts. If you’re on a budget, Revlon has
a Colorstay brand that won’t smudge for at least 12 hours. If you’ve been up all night with a sick child,
concealer sticks are a quick tool to make you look instantly bright-eyed. Apply it under the eyes only
after you’ve placed a couple of cucumber slices under them for about 10 minutes in the morning. That’s an
inexpensive way to soothe any puffiness that may have occurred.

Blush it up. You’re probably thinking that you already look fluster from all of the errands that you find
yourself running throughout the day and so blush isn’t necessary. On almost any face, blush can brighten
up a face in a matter of moments, transitioning a woman from looking flustered to looking radiant. Based
on your personal preference, blushes come [Read more…]

How to Make Ends Meet When You’re Unemployed

The US job market is slowly beginning to turn around, but there are still millions of people unemployed. And these are not short losses of income between jobs, but prolonged battles with the job market. According to a New York Times story reporting on a Labor Department study, the average person on unemployment is currently spending around 40 weeks without work. That’s a heck of a long time
to simply tighten a belt and keep a stiff upper lip. Hunting for a job month after month is a painful, frustrating enterprise, and it’s incredibly difficult for a family on a budget to swallow. While there are no perfect solutions for this situation, there are some strategies you can utilize to keep your family afloat
while you wait for the right opportunity to come around. Here’s a look at a couple of ways to make ends meet while you’re unemployed.

File for unemployment benefits. Most people who previously had a full time job can register for unemployment and receive some sort of government assistance. Even if you’ve been out of work for a while, it’s worth looking into what sort of benefits are available. The rules for unemployment compensation differ state-by-state, so check with your local unemployment office to find out how to apply. Unemployment benefits are generally only available to you for a certain amount of time, and you won’t receive money equal to what you were making at your previous position. In fact, the national average for weekly unemployment compensation is $270, so chances are it will still be a lot less than you are used to bringing home. However, that money could make the difference between going bankrupt or squeaking by, so filing for [Read more…]
