Makeup Tips And Tricks For Women Over 40

Don’t continue applying the same makeup techniques learned in middle and high school. Many women dread their over-40 birthdays due to aging effects evident in the bathroom mirror, but beauty experts placate with a plethora of makeup tricks. Birdie.com appealed to “boomers and beyond” women in June not to continue applying the same makeup techniques learned in middle and high school. The site shared gravity-defying, wrinkle-diminishing tips from a makeup artist who works specifically with women over 40: ‒ Apply, in an upward sweep, blush on the upper part of cheekbones. ‒ Fill in sparse areas of eyebrows, especially “tail” areas. ‒ Use lighter shades on eyelids and under the brow; use a medium or darker tone in the crease. ‒ Avoid matte and nude lipsticks; choose color and shine and...

Cornering The Baseball Cards Market

‘The Amazon of Sports’ has already cornered baseball’s apparel market – and is now on the verge of subsuming baseball cards, too. During spring training, Major League Baseball’s official uniform supplier, Fanatics, became a focal point for all the wrong reasons. After arriving in Florida and Arizona, players began to complain about the quality of their new, Fanatics-manufactured uniforms. One player for the Baltimore Orioles groused that the new uniforms looked “like a knockoff jersey from T.J. Maxx.” Others were dismayed to learn that the white pants were transparent, with seams from tucked-in jerseys – and sometimes more than just seams – visible to all. The spring training uniform fiasco has led to more scrutiny for Fanatics, a company that had, until recently, been widely considere...

Batteries So Many Sizes And Shapes

Why batteries come in so many sizes and shapes. If you’ve looked in your utility drawer lately, you may have noticed the various shapes, sizes and types of batteries that power your electronic devices. First, there are the round, non-rechargeable button cells for your watches and small items. There’s also the popular AA and AAA cylindrical batteries for calculators, clocks and remotes.

A Canvas To Be Seen And Heard

For graffiti artists, abandoned skyscrapers in Miami and Los Angeles become a canvas for regular people to be seen and heard. The three qualities that matter most in real estate also matter the most to graffiti artists: location, location, location.

The efforts took place over the course of a few nights in December 2023 and late January 2024, with the results generating a mix of admiration and condemnation. KTLA 5 news highlights public outrage over a graff...
