2014: Definitely Year Of BIG Butts, Real Or Not

Between JLo, Iggy, Nicki and Kim, 2014 has been the year of BIG butts, and it appears that all this ample-ness will be spilling out into the new year.

Not sure whose behind is REALLY real or REALLY fake. But whatever the case, the Brazilian Butt Lift or BBL, remains a very popular cosmetic surgery.

So let's take a further look. You can spend tons of time in the gym doing tons of squats + lunges to create a better butt. But---

The Brazilian Butt Lift can also design a great-looking behind in just a couple of hours.

RealSelf.com gives an excellent analysis of the BBL:

"A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) uses a person's own fat to naturally augment and shape the buttocks. A plastic surgeon first performs liposuction to remove fat from other areas of the body (often the stomach, hips, and thighs), then transfers that fat to the buttocks. Additional liposuction can be done around the butt to improve the appearance of lift and contour."
Average Price: $6,650.

And take a LOOK at these BEFORE + AFTER Pics:


No you can see why designing your own butt is in such high demand.

Using your own fat can offer these advantages:

No foreign body implanted
Low rate of infection
Improved contour to the areas where the fat was harvested from
Minimal incisions required

Makes you wonder who in Hollywood has chosen the BBL over the hard work-out gym routine.

Simple, Home Recipe For Brighter, Whiter Nails

If you're constantly fooling around with dark nail polishes, then you know how dull + yellowed nails can look when you remove the lacquer and see your bare nails for real.



What causes the nasty discoloration?

The pigments in the darker shades can result in deep staining on the nail plate.

So, how do we continue to enoy our vampier manis + pedis without having to worry about the polish dyes yellowing our nails?

You could try a base coat BEFORE you apply the colored polish. This clear coat not only helps color to adhere, but also SEALS + PROTECTS the nail plate from staining.

But we suggest this simple, home recipe for brighter, whiter nails, because it really works.

All you need:

1 Tbsp.lemon juice added to 3 Tbsp. olive oil in a small bowl.


Dunk nails into the lemon/oil mixture. Soak for 10 minutes. Then rinse with lukewarm water + dry. Apply moisturizing lotion to seal in all the good stuff.

The lemon acid will lift stains and brighten, while the olive oil provides wonderful hydration for healthier nails.
