MYTH #2: FAKE NAILS WILL DESTROY YOUR REAL NAILS
Not true. It is not the artificial nail or the glue that ultimately causes nail damage, but improper removal—such as picking or prying off. So if you just take care of your nails and remove them properly, there will be absolutely no damage to your nails.MYTH #3: LASER HAIR REMOVAL DOES NOT WORK FOR LIGHT HAIR
Who came up with that? Either way, it’s not true. Although laser hair removal does work better for darker hair, lighter does works just as fine. With lighter hair, you’ll see about 70-80% removal of the hair. So just go one extra time and you’ll be fine!
MYTH #4: YOU NEED FREQUENT HAIRCUTS IF YOU WANNA U'R HAIR LONGER
Wrong again. Your hair will grow at the same speed with or without a haircut. But regular haircuts will help improve the overall health of your hair as well as getting rid of those pesky split ends.
MYTH #5: PETITE GIRLS CAN’T PULL OF LINGERIE
Another stupid myth made up by guys who like big-chested girls. There are so many different types of lingerie out there made for every body, including petite. So next time you wanna surprise your man but you think you won’t be able to pull it off, just go out and find a nice up-lifting water bra and it’ll do the job!
MYTH #6: BREAKOUTS ARE CAUSED BY OILY SKINAlthough breakouts are associated with oily skin, that is not always the cause. In most cases, breakouts happen because the skin is so sensitive that you might be using the wrong products, therefore causing more pimples. So if you have oily skin and you’ve tried everything, try sensitive formulas and you’ll start seeing some change.
MYTH #7: ORGANIC PRODUCTS ARE WEAK
Whoever made that up is seriously disturbed because organic beauty products are the best you can get! They’re skin friendly so they won’t clog your pores and they protect your skin from all the harmful pollutants out there. Plus, you don’t get all the chemicals so organic beauty products is really the way to go.
MYTH #8: YOU CAN’T PULL OFF ALL COLORS
If there is one thing I always hear from my girlfriends is that ‘I can’t wear THAT color!’, which is absolutely ridiculous. The one thing you have to pay special attention to is the shades of the color as well as the undertones. So while a hot, fiery red might not suit your complexion, a toned-down version might do you wonders!
MYTH #9: CHLORINE TURNS YOUR HAIR GREEN
So not true. Copper, not chlorine, will turn your hair green. If a pool is not properly maintained and cleaned regulary, it can have copper residue which in turn could turn your hair a greenish color. Now this is mostly for blondes since their pigment is so light, but all you have to do is switch to a low pH shampoo which will help combat against greening.
MYTH #10: CROSSING YOUR LEGS WILL GIVE YOU SPIDER VEINS
Very untrue. Most people that hair spider veins or vericosse veins have them because either their mother or grandmother had them. It’s all in the genes!
Beauty Tip
There is so much information out there on pretty much anything, but you also can’t believe everything you hear or read. Especially when it comes to beauty, there are a lot of weird do’s and dont’s out there that aren’t always necessarily true. So I’ve uncovered the top 10 beauty myths out there which should help you get a better idea of what’s true and what isn’t.

Fashion
Summer is nearing and we’re all very excited to shed our heavy winter coats and jump into something shorter and sexier. So what’s on the agenda for this summer? Here are the top 10 styles for this spring and summer- you won’t wanna miss this!
Toga Goddess
Toga dresses are super sexy and powerful. Try one on and you’ll see why I say this! Grab a loose, one-shoulder dress for the summer and pair it with flats, strappy sandals, wrap sandals, stilettos or wedges. You can either wear a toga dress long or short – the choice is all yours!
Pink, Hearts and Bows
It’s the season to look cute and adorable so get out your heart-printed frocks, bow enhanced tops and pink everything. Don’t be afraid to don a little love on your sleeve.
Citrus Hues
Put away drab, depressing colors such as grey and black and bring out your fruity colors. Lemon, raspberry, papaya, and all bright tropical colors are a major summer staple so make sure to stock up!
Classic Cut-Outs
If you like a little class in your wardrobe, cut-out couture is all the rage. Choose cutwork clothing that everyone will be talking about the next day.
One-Piece Black Swimsuit
Classic styles are back and with that comes the return of the classic one-piece black swimsuit. Especially after a long, harsh winter where we might have put some weight one, the one-piece cannot fail.
Animal Instinct
Animal prints are still big this summer just like they were last fall. So don’t be afraid to venture out of your comfort zone and follow your animal instincts.
High Hemlines, Short Skirts
I say that if you’ve got it, flaunt it. This summer, dare to bare all with high hemlines and short skirts – just make sure you can pull it off!
Clashing Prints
If you know how to do it properly, clashing prints are all the rage this summer. Mix and match different prints and colors to pull off a confident look.
Sheer Mania
Sheer fabrics are ultra sexy this summer, so don’t be afraid to wear them. Make sure that when wearing sheer fabrics you wear them with class…put a little cardigan over a sheer top.
Bold Accessories
Every girl has a bold, look-at-me accessory in her closet whether it be a bag, a pair of crazy shoes or a big necklace. Show them off this summer with tons of confidence and you’ll soon catch everyone’s eye.
