We all need some humor in our lives! Thanks to one of our Fifty Is Nifty members, Michelle, here is one that should put a SMILE on your face! Enjoy...

Subject: MAKE OVER :)

A 50 year old woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital.
While on the operating table she had a near death experience.

Seeing God she asked "Is my time up?"

God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and 8 days to live."

Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, liposuction, breast implants and a tummy tuck. She even had someone come in and change her hair color and brighten her teeth! Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.

After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was killed by an ambulance.

Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 43 years? Why didn't you pull me from out of the path of the ambulance?"

(You'll love this!!!)

God replied: "I didn't recognize you."

You won't find HMS CROWN anti-aging premium skincare products on a drug store or supermarket shelf. You won't find them behind the counter at Neiman Marcus or Saks. You won't see them nationally advertised. You may accidentally stumble over HMS Crown products at a very few prestigious salons and health spas but for the most part you'll see them only on the Internet or hear about them by word of mouth.

They have a huge range of products, which features not only cosmetics. plus an impressive line of skincare, and wellness products, along with high-quality gifts and many other unique items.

This is a website you must see to believe...

MAKEUP TIPS AND TECHNIQUES:

Concealers:

* Concealers can do wonders for covering up many different problem areas of the skin.

* They can do wonders for hiding tiny veins and blemishes on the skin for those people who do not or will not have laser treatment to fix these problems.
* They are also excellent for hiding the natural shadows that many people have in areas of the face and in particular below the eyes.

Concealers don't actually improve any problems; they just hide them from view.
So you're not likely to get rid of black circles under the eyes by regularly using concealers but they can't do wonders for that area of the face where the skin is particularly thin.

To apply concealer around your eyes place a small amount on your finger tip and then gently dab it on the skin before smoothing it from the outside corner inwards and back again. Be careful not to stretch the skin in this area as the skin is very thin and easily damaged.

The most important thing about using concealers is to ensure that you blend it in very well. Concealers can be used either under or over foundation but no matter where you use them they must be blended for a natural look.

A cream concealer will generally be the type most suitable for the majority of people as the liquid concealers are often difficult to work with and a stick concealer risks the possibility of stretching and damaging your skin.

If you're using a concealer to cover up blemishes on your skin it is wise to check throughout the day to see whether additional blending might be necessary as your makeup begins to wear off. When this happens the areas that have been covered with a concealer become more obvious and that is precisely what you don't want to happen.
