my makeup must-haves
I love experimenting with new makeup products, but when it comes to my everyday beauty routine, I use the follow staples:
I believe primer is the most important product in anyone's beauty bag. It's purpose is to help prep and protect the skin as well as extend the wear of your makeup. My favorite primer is Laure Mercier's Blurring primer. The name says it all- this primer blurs imperfections giving you a real-life photo filtered face.
I wear this age-defying tinted moisturizer everyday in place of foundation. The product is clinically proven to prevent and fight signs of aging. On top of that, there's no need to swatch for the perfect shade, It's intelligent formula delivers a universal tint and healthy glow.
An award-winning concealer that corrects, contours, highlights, and perfects. It's creamy consistency also locks in moisture leaving the skin hydrated and creaseless. TIP: whenever picking out an under-eye concealer, choose a shade that's two shades lighter than your skin tone. This will instantly hide dark circles and brighten your face.
My go-to palette day and night, year-round. I love that it's arranged in rows for three easy looks to mix and match. The palette is formulated with amazonian clay, AKA nature's perfect ingredient for better, longer wear.
This highly pigmented formula is infused with Vitamin E for a smooth application. Once applied, the creamy texture can be built up and blended for up to 30 seconds before it sets, resulting in a smudge-proof smoldering effect.
The holy grail of mascaras! This mascara is formulated with lash growing and strengthening ingredients that visibly transformed my lashes from damaged, short and sparse to healthy, long and thick. Since I've been using this product, people have asked if I have lash extensions. Need I say more?
Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow ($24)
I use Benefit's Gimme Brow to replicate model Taylor Hill's eyebrows. The gel contains tiny microfibers that adhere to skin and brow hairs to achieve natural-looking fullness and volume.
This finely milled matte bronzer blends effortlessly into the skin to create a believable sun-kissed glow.
The #1 best selling blush in the US for a reason. This iconic shade delivers a rush of color & subtle shimmer that flatters any skin-tone.
Becca's liquid luminizer melts into the skin leaving a natural, dewy glow. Sometimes I'll mix in a drop with my foundation, for an all-over radiant complexion.
No other brand beats this lip balm. It's my secret to hydrated and naturally plump lips.
NYX butter gloss melts on your lips leaving you with smooth, kissable lips & a sweet pop of color.
One of my all-time favorite lip products! It's a tinted balm, colored like a lipstick & shiny like a gloss. Basically a triple threat! It adds a velvety touch of color with a lustrous pout.
SeTTING SPRAY
This setting spray miraculously helps my makeup stay in place all day (or all night). It features patented temperature control technology that actually lowers the temperature of your makeup. The result is makeup that lasts up to 16 hours without melting, fading, or settling into fine lines.
Follain REVIEW
We've all heard the motto "You are what you eat." Now add "You are what you apply" …to your skin. The products you put on your body absorb directly into your bloodstream, so being aware of what you put on your body is just as important as what you put in it.
Follain was founded on the notion that no one should have to sacrifice their health for beauty. The beauty company is the source for the best non-toxic beauty and skincare brands. Below I've listed my favorite products from Follain.
I pamper my dry winter skin with this dreamy moisturizer. It's satin-soft texture smooths over parched skin effortlessly, leaving it visibly more hydrated and luminous.
l use this luxurious body polish in place of shaving cream. The blend of Moroccan rose, coconut oil, and sugar gently exfoliates and deeply nourishes the skin. My legs feel silky smooth to the touch. It also smells heavenly!
This cooling mist works to replenish and balance the skin. After I wash my face, I'll spray this over my complexion to attain a dewy and vibrant appearance.
This energizing cleanser tingles as it effectively removes surface impurities, without stripping the skin of its natural oils. My face is left looking renewed, refreshed, and radiant. It also smells delightful!
A rich yet quick-absorbing moisturizer, that leaves my skin nourished without looking or feeling greasy. I smooth a sheer layer over my skin each morning to help hydrate and protect it against environmental stressors. It's the perfect everyday base cream!
You're never too young to start implementing anti-aging products into your skincare routine. With that said, I am always searching for THE best anti-aging skin care products… & finally my search is over. For the past few months, I tried a few anti-aging products from the newly renowned skincare company Demarché Labs.
In today's society, we are constantly demanding things at faster rates, & that is what I love most about these products; they are quick to tackle signs of aging. Their innovative formula rapidly destroys evidence of fine lines & wrinkles, ultimately repairing the skin for an overall smoother complexion.
I used BIOREWIND Total Restorative Eye Cream, the FULLFILL Hyaluronic Acid Topical Wrinkle Filler, Instant Skin Smoothing Masque, & the Roloxin Lift Gold Masque. Each of these products greatly improved my skin's appearance.
BIOREWIND Total Restorative Eye Cream
I am big on eye creams. Because the skin around our eyes is so thin & delicate, it must be met with extra care. This eye cream is formulated with amino acids and antioxidants that helps fight free radical damage, puffiness and dark circles. I applied this cream routinely in the morning & evening. Just after one week's use, I noticed that the skin underneath my eyes went from dull & discolored to visibly brighter & smoother.
FULLFILL Hyaluronic Acid Topical Wrinkle Filler
I have used countless products with hyaluronic acid, a key ingredient in keeping skin plump, hydrated, and youthful looking. What makes this product unique is that its innovative formula allows for a deeper penetration of hyaluronic acid into the skin, which allows for faster results. After applying it consistently for one week, I noticed that my skin was smoother & appeared more voluminous.
Instant Skin Smoothing Masque
I'm addicted to the instant results I get directly after using this product. This masque truly does everything it is formulated to do: visibly lift, tighten, and smooth skin for a face-lift effect that lasts all day. After just one use, my skin felt & appeared more firm & smooth. The product also decreased the appearance of pores & subtle lines on my face, giving my skin an airbrush-like complexion. This product is a great prep step for flawless makeup application; any time that I have an event, I will use a mask.
Roloxin Lift Gold Masque
This mask is gold, literally & figuratively. I use this mask to prep my skin for special occasions. After each us, my skin is left luxuriously smooth & luminous.
Special thanks to Stephen Florres for suggesting these products!
As much as I'd love to tell you that my skin care routine is simple, well… it's not. If you want great skin you have to put in the time and effort to get the results you want. However, once you get into a routine it will become simpler.
Everyone has a different skin type. The products I've listed are what I have found work best for my skin type, which is combination. My advice is to experiment with the endless supply of products on the market to find what works best for you and your skincare needs. The basic outline of my routine is for everyone:
1. Cleanser: To make sure I don't strip my face of natural oils and dry-out my skin, I wash my face with a gentle cleanser. Sometimes I'll even just splash my with ice-cold water. This helps reduce puffiness & definitely wake you up!
2. Toner: After I wash my face, I soak a cotton pad with witch hazel and gently pat it all over my face. For those of you who aren't familiar with witch hazel, it is an all-natural tonic that has been used for centuries to cleanse, soothe, and tone skin. The cucumber witch hazel I use in the morning is a miracle worker at erasing dark circles and bags from under my eyes.
3. Serum: Once the witch hazel dries, I will apply a serum. Serums have a high concentration of active ingredients such as antioxidants, moisturizing agents, and vitamins that effectively target specific skin concerns. I am currently using a serum that targets sun damage.
4. Moisturizer: Next, I will smooth on moisturizer all over my face. I have a collection of moisturizers that I switch off using depending on the skin issues I want to target. Below is a moisturizer from my FAVORITE skincare brand. Eminence products are made with fresh fruit pulps, plants and exotic spices. This makes them incredibly rich in nutrients and highly effective.
5. Sunscreen: Last but not least, I apply sunscreen all over my face (and body) everyday to protect from damaging UV rays. I choose sunscreens that contain zinc oxide because the ingredient has a broad spectrum of UV protection. My favorite sunscreen is from Blue Lizard—the bottle turns blue in the presence of UV light!
Throughout the day I mist my face with a hydrating mist to keep my complexion looking dewy and fresh. On the flip side, if my face starts to look oily, I blot my face with oil wipes to reduce the shine.
1. Cleanser: If I wear makeup during the day, I wash my face with this natural (but very effective) face wash. It is so important to NEVER sleep in your makeup! Yes, I am guilty of this… but I've learned that I'm always thankful when I take just 5 minutes to wash my face, instead of dealing with breakouts over the next 5 days.
2. Toner: Same as the morning.
3. Serum: Same as the morning.
4. Moisturizer: I use this age corrective moisturizer at night.
5. Eye Cream: I use Aquaphor as an eye cream! It is extremely hydrating and I've found it works better than Vaseline because it soaks into the skin.
once a week
I exfoliate once or twice a week to shed dead skin and retain a smooth complexion. My favorite way to exfoliate is with Clarisonic.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Let me know what products you use in your skincare routine!
Over break I stopped by Cos Bar again (if you missed my last post about Cos Bar click here). Mandy (who's the best!) gave me a makeover and introduced me to Tom Ford's latest makeup, and I could not be more obsessed! Check out the look below and then read about my favorite products from Tom Ford.
I use this product to correct the dull and pale effects winter has on my complexion. After I apply it, my skin instantly becomes more lively and radiant. It's the perfect primer because it's lightweight and creates a smooth surface for the rest of my makeup.
I LOVE this product. I usually mix it with my foundation to obtain an all-over glow, or I use it in place of my highlighter. Either way, it leaves me with a natural sun kissed look!
I'm a fan of cream products because they go on smoothly and are so easy to blend! Whenever I'm in a hurry, I use this product and it gives me a quick and instant burst of color.
Tom Ford eye color quads come in stunning color combinations. The colors are perfect to layer and create looks that can transform from day to night.
Special thanks to Mandy for this beauty look! If you ever find yourself in Edina, Minnesota book an appointment with her—she is so talented! And if you aren't near Edina, at any of the Cos Bar locations you will find the most talented and helpful makeup artist/professionals to help you look and feel beautiful!
There are many products on the market that promise you flawless skin. But no matter how many facemasks, serums or moisturizers you try and slather on to the outside of your skin, beauty for your skin starts on the inside. I've researched and put together a list of ways to attain beautiful and healthy skin without having to buy products.
Your skin is basically a canvas for your body's health. If you're not eating well, your body will signal that your diet needs to change by exhibiting skin problems.
Sugar, dairy and gluten all have a common role in causing breakouts and inflammation. Try avoiding one or all of these foods for about two weeks and see how your skin changes.
Aim to eat dark leafy greens, berries and fish. These types of foods are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that your skin needs to eliminate toxins and rejuvenate.
Glowing skin is one of the many benefits that one can obtain from regular exercise. Getting your heart rate pumping boosts your blood and oxygen circulation. This nourishes your cells and helps remove toxins from your body. Plus, when you break a sweat, this relieves clogged pores leaving you with a natural glow! Exercising also lowers high cortisol levels, a stress hormone that when high can lead to breakouts.
Caffeinated drinks like coffee, tea, soda or alcohol can lead to dehydration. This can cause dry skin and worsen wrinkles. If you want to get a dewy and glowing complexion, guzzling water is essential. Staying hydrated helps your body deliver nutrients to your cells, which keeps them plump and appear firmer on the outside.
I try to follow the 8x8 rule: eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day.
From touching your phone to door handles and money, your hands come in contact with a lot of bacteria. When you touch your face, these germs as well as the oils from your hands can then transfer onto your skin and not only cause breakouts, but also cause you to become sick.
It's called "beauty sleep" for a reason. Sleep is the time when your body's skin cells repair themselves. When you lack a good night's sleep, your skin's restorative process is cut short and can lead to dark circles, fine lines and breakouts. By getting 7 to 8 hours of uninterrupted Z's, you'll wake up with a more smooth and radiant complexion.
This shoot was taken at one of my absolute favorite beauty boutiques: Cos Bar! If you've never been to Cos Bar before, you must go!! Cos Bar has 13 locations with more opening soon. Click here to find a location near you.
Whenever I had a high school formal, Cos Bar would be my go-to place to book makeup appointments. My experience there has always been so unique and positive. Every time I entered the store I was treated like royalty and left looking and feeling like the-bell-of-the-ball!
One of the things that sets Cos Bar apart, is that they host special events and bring in top makeup artist from the industry. I've loved meeting and having the experience of getting my makeup done by some of the most talented and well-known makeup artists. I also love that Cos Bar keeps me updated on the latest, most desired beauty products- as well as gives me tips on what would specifically work well with my features.
The company is very selective in the beauty brands they choose to carry, so whenever I purchase new products there, I know that I'm getting the best-of-the-best!
All of the products linked above can be bought at Cos Bar.
Giorgio Amarni Luminous Silk Foundation
There's a reason this foundation has been ranked #1 for years in a row. This foundation is like no other: it goes on like silk and makes my skin look flawless.
Temptu Airbrush Machine
How awesome is an at-home airbrush machine?!?! It's so easy to use and gives my skin an instant, effortless finish.
Artis Brushes
Investing in good makeup brushes is so important because high quality brushes last longer and make a huge difference! Artis brushes are unique in that they're made with CosmeFibre, which is an engineered fiber specifically made for applying makeup. I'm obsessed with them- they're so soft!
What I use each brush for:
Bobbi Brown Natural Brow Shaper
I love this product! It's basically like mascara for your eyebrows! It's a quick and easy way to get thicker and fuller brows.
Sisley Phyto 4 Ombres Eyeshadow Quarter
This palette is beautiful and is great for any season. These shadows are gel-powder which means they last long and won't settle into lines or creases. The shimmer in the shadows also captures the light and creates a subtle glow. Truly eye-catching (;
Sisley Eye Twists
I've come to love applying eyeshadow with a pen. I usually apply them with my finger to create an effortless smokey-eye.
Special thanks to Cos Bar and Claire Little Photography.
I have a huge obsession with Coconut Oil! You may think that it's just for cooking, but there are actually endless ways to use it in and out of the kitchen. Here are my favorite ways that I've implemented Coconut Oil into my daily routine.
Coconut Oil is a great substitute for make-up remover. It's less expensive, works better, and you don't have to worry about harsh chemicals contained in some store-bought wipes.
I apply Coconut Oil to a round cotton pad, and then gently rub off my face and eye makeup.
This is the best shaving cream! My skin feels much more silky and smooth compared to when I use regular shaving cream.
It's an ultra-moisturizer. After I shower (this is when the skin is most absorbent) I'll lather Coconut Oil all over my legs and dry spots like my elbows and heels. At night, I'll use it as a facial moisturizer and eye cream. My skin is left hydrated and luminous!
Coconut Oil contains many ingredients that are essential for strong and healthy hair.
I've noticed that after I use it, my hair is extremely moisturized and soft.
To do a hair mask, I warm up Coconut Oil in my palms and then massage it into my hair. Afterwards, I put on a shower cap to lock in heat (and prevent the oil from touching my clothes). I like to keep the oil on my hair for as long as I can and often sleep with it in. Otherwise I'll apply it to my hair 30 minutes before I shower.
Be sure to shampoo twice so you don't end up with greasy hair!
Lauric acid and caprylic acid are two antibacterial ingredients found in Coconut Oil that help improve your immune system. Whenever I feel sick, I'll heat a spoonful of oil in a pan and gulp it down- I say "gulp" since it doesn't taste that great by the spoonful! However, it's worth it because it really helps me feel better when I have a sore throat or don't feel well.
Coconut oil makes a great shoe shine. If my leather shoes are looking old or scuffed, I'll buff them up with a rag and oil and they practically look brand new!
I hope these are some helpful tips on how to use Coconut Oil! Buy some here.
This past year I had the "brilliant" idea of dyeing my hair from blonde to brown. BIG mistake! I hated the color and immediately wanted to go back to blonde. After weeks of re-highlighting my brown hair, my hair became over-processed, dry and eventually broke off in some places. Yes, the horror of it! I'm now in the long process of re-growing new and healthy hair.
Even if you haven't damaged your hair like me, here are some of the best ways that I've found to keep or get the healthy hair you want.
Wash your hair about 3-4 times a week vs. everyday. Over washing your hair can dry it out by stripping it of its natural oils. If your hair gets oily quickly, try using a dry shampoo. I love the brand Batiste.
The great thing about this product is that it comes in a variety of "hair colors." I love using the blonde dry shampoo because it makes my hair look fresh, clean, as well as adds volume.
Rinse your hair in cold water. The heat from hot water can cause breakage. I wash out my shampoo with warm water and then finish rinsing out my conditioner with cold water. The warm water opens up the hair's cuticle shaft, while the cold seals the cuticle and locks in moisture.
Other tips…
Because my hair is damaged, I'm sleeping in coconut oil about every other night. It is extremely moisturizing and has done wonders to combat my dry ends. This is my favorite product to use as a mask because it's all natural and also great for so many other things that I will touch on in another post.
I choose hair products based on the ingredients in them. I avoid shampoos and conditioners with any of the following toxic ingredients listed in this article.
The best way to untangle your hair is to use a wide-tooth comb. Always start at the ends and gently work your way up to the roots.
Don't brush hair when it's wet. However, I have found that the one exception is to use a Wet Brush. I'm obsessed! It's also great for brushing out extensions.
I typically air-dry my hair instead of using heat. If I use a blow dryer, I'll first apply a heat protecting spray. Also, I try to protect my hair from the sun by wearing a hat.
You can nourish your hair from the inside out too. Foods with omega 3 such as walnuts, salmon, and avocado can help as well as taking Biotin supplements or prenatal vitamins.
In conclusion, always listen to your mother… she warned me not to dye my hair brown in the first place. Oops. Thankfully hair grows back and with these tips it can be healthier than ever.

Your teeth play many important roles in your mouth, including providing you with a beautiful, confident smile. When your teeth are affected by flaws, the quality of your smile decreases. Even the most minor flaws can have a major impact, leaving you feeling incredibly self-conscious. At Sylvan Heights Dental, we can improve the quality of your smile with veneers.
What are Veneers?
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment used for correcting the appearance of teeth affected by minor flaws. This particular treatment involves the use of very thin, shell-like restorations that are bonded to the front surfaces of the affected teeth. Veneers eliminate the appearance of flaws, completely transforming your smile and boosting your confidence.
Veneers can be used to cover a variety of different imperfections, including:
Materials for Veneers
Veneers are typically made from either composite resin or porcelain. Both of these materials are biocompatible, meaning that they do not irritate your gums. The materials are also tooth colored, enabling them to blend in with the natural color of your surrounding teeth. Composite is a more affordable material, but porcelain provides greater strength and has a longer lifespan. Porcelain also mimics the light reflection properties of your natural tooth enamel and is stain-resistant.
Getting Your Veneers
Getting your veneers, regardless of material, requires two separate appointments. At your first appointment, the affected teeth are prepared. We remove a small portion of the tooth enamel from the front surfaces of the teeth that will receive veneers. Done under a local anesthetic, preparing the teeth is essential for ensuring a natural feel and appearance. If tooth enamel is not removed, your veneers may look or feel bulky. Next, we take an impression of your mouth. This impression is sent to our dental lab. There, it is used to design your custom veneers and create them.
Your second appointment occurs after your veneers have been sent back. We check them to make sure that they fit properly in your mouth, that they provide you with a natural, comfortable l bite, and that they look completely natural. Finally, they are bonded into place on your teeth, instantly transforming your smile.
Veneer Benefits
Veneers provide several significant benefits.
Veneers can eliminate minor flaws in your teeth, completely transforming the appearance of your smile. If flaws in your teeth are affecting your smile, and your confidence, call Sylvan Heights Dental today at (503) 388-5882 to schedule your consultation and find out if veneers are right for you.

It's time to consider Apple more with all these negative headlines floating around the market.
That doesn't mean the world is ending or a bear market is approaching. But it does mean we have to be more careful about the types of stocks we pile our chips into. In particular, retirement investors need to be more careful when selecting single-stock holdings for their portfolio.
In this sense, Action Alerts Plus holding Apple Inc. (AAPL) - Get Report is still one of the best stocks investors can buy.
The reasons why are simple: Capital return, valuation and growth.
Let's start with the first one, capital return. Apple pays out a 1.5% dividend yield, which is far from robust. Especially when investors can collect a 3.2% yield from Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO) - Get Reportor a 2.6% yield from Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) - Get Report .
However, neither of these companies have the cash balance or the cash-generating power that Apple has. As a result, long-term investors anxiously await what management will unveil for its new capital return program in its fiscal second-quarter earnings results (typically in April or early May).
Last year, it bumped its dividend by 10.5% and added $35 billion to its buyback plan, which then stood at $210 billion. With corporate tax reform now in place and after a robust holiday quarter from Apple, the company is set to return a record amount of capital in 2018.
From Apple CFO Luca Maestri on the company's most recent conference call:
- "Our current net cash position is $163 billion. And given the increased financial and operational flexibility from the access to our foreign cash, we are targeting to become approximately net cash neutral over time."
- "We have $285 billion of cash, we've got $122 billion of debt for a net cash of $163 billion. We have now the flexibility to deploy this capital. We will do that overtime, because the amount is very large."
There's more to Apple than its capital return, though. Despite its fortress-like financial situation and robust consumer business (where it saw its average selling price for an iPhone jump more than $100 per unit to $796 last quarter), the stock is astoundingly cheap.
Apple stock trades at about 14.5 times 2018 earnings estimates and just 12.7 times 2019 estimates. The underlying business is strong, margins are good and its valuation is low.
However, this valuation would mean very little without growth. Fortunately, Apple has that, too.
Analysts expect earnings to grow a whopping 24% this year and an additional 14.5% next year. That goes alongside 14.2% revenue growth in 2018 and another 3.7% bump in 2019.
To recap: A huge commitment to returning capital to shareholders, a low valuation and attractive growth. What more could we ask for?

we have had 3 chi's over the years and loved them all dearly. our newest chi is 3 yr. old deer head. he is def. more friendly and different from the other 2 we have had in the past. he doesn't mind going outside in the winter or a mild rain. our apple heads didn't want to go out hardly at all. he has never met a stranger and always polite and friendly to others. he also loves to run and play with other people and dogs which our apples didn't. he has only dirtied in the house 1 time since he was 11 weeks old and he went into the bathroom and left his biz on the bathmat. I don't think our apples were ever completely house trained, not because the didn't know better, they did, they just didn't like certain types of weather and would sneak off in the house and poop or pee.we loved and we miss our apples very much but, this deer head seems to be more proud, playful, and tougher than the apples.
nice web site.

Geography aims to equip our young women with knowledge, skills and experience to become informed citizens and responsible custodians of our changing world.
The study of Geography helps us to develop an understanding and appreciation of the world around us, in all its complexity and variation. It is a core subject from Years 7 – 10 and is also offered at VCE level.
Year 7 students begin their journey in Geography by learning about the methods and skills involved in geographical enquiry, including mapping skills and data collection, and presentation and analysis. Students have the opportunity to put theory into practice during fieldwork exercises in the local area. They investigate Australia's place in the world and in the Asia-Pacific region, and the amazing characteristics and beauty of the world's hot, dry deserts. Our study of endangered species is given practical expression through the Melbourne Zoo excursion which enhances students' understanding of the plight of such animals.
Year 8 students begin their studies of rainforests with fieldwork in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges National Park. They also study, South East Asia, Antarctica and the hazards associated with weather and climate.
Plate Tectonics and associated natural disasters form a major component of study for Year 9 students. Opportunities exist for students to complete research work in this topic which is also used for assessment in Media and for a video making competition. All Year 9 and 10 students are also challenged through their involvement in the annual Australian Geography Competition. As an important part of their study of coasts and coastal management, Year 9 students undertake fieldwork, visiting several beautiful coastal locations on the Mornington Peninsula.
Year 10 students investigate topics as varied as rivers and their significance to humankind, global patterns of development, contrasts in living conditions and the inequalities which exist, and environmental topics which have critical significance to the future including land degradation and climate change. Students complete fieldwork collecting data from contrasting areas of Melbourne to analyse living conditions, and their study of rivers includes a case study of the Murray River. This study is closely linked with the Year 10 camp during which students complete a journey based experience paddling down a length of the Murray River.

It's a very exciting moment for your business. You've been working with some of the designers from 48HoursLogo.com and have decided on the right design to represent you.
So what's next? How do you finish the contest and get your copy of the files? What type of files will you get? In this post I will go over the steps to complete your contest and download the files of your new logo!
Selecting A Winner
Step 1) Click on the design and it will pop up with a comments section underneath.
Step 2) On the Bottom Right there is a box you can check "Select as Winning Design."
Step 3) With that box checked, hit submit. You have now selected your winning design!
*for questions about the rights to the design, please see our FAQ Page.
Downloading The Files
First – After a Winning Design has been selected, a new section called "Winning Design Package" appears at the bottom of the Contest Page underneath the first 30 submissions. (Hit "See All Designs" to expand the section and see the rest of the submissions.)
Second – Once you have selected the Winning Design, an email is automatically sent out to the winning designer to prepare the Final Logo Package and they can upload it in this new section.
Third – Once they do upload the .zip file, a message will appear for you in the "Winning Design Package" section to download the files and review them to make sure everything is correct. If anything is missing or incorrect you can message the designer in this section for corrections.
Fourth – There will be a link at the top of this section labeled "Final Design Package" inside of a red box. It will have a link for you to click on to download the .zip file.
Finishing The Contest
1) Once you've downloaded the Final Design Package, open it and review the files to make sure everything is correct.
2) If any changes are needed, notify the designer with a message in the "Winning Design Package" section. A new message will appear here every time the designer uploads a new package or when you download the package.
3) Once everything is correct in the package, return to the "Winning Design Package" section and click the button "Confirm Package" to finish the contest and release the prize to the designer.
~ The link for the Final Design Package will remain up in case you need to come back later and download the package again. If you would like to work directly with the designer who created your winning logo, they can hired for a 1-on-1 Project on the Designer Page.
The Final Design Package
All right, so now you have the Final Design package, what should you be looking for inside of it? You will be provided with four different files of your design in the Final Design Package: an EPS, PDF, JPEG, and PNG. These file formats will allow you to use your logo for anything online or offline.
EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a vector image. Vector means that the image is created from paths that start and end with points. This allows vector files to be scaled to any size without losing any image quality. The file also contains an encapsulated preview for quick viewing.
PDF (Portable Document Format) also vector, a PDF file captures text, fonts, images, and even document styles from many different applications. By incorporating these elements, when you send a PDF file to another computer, even across platforms, it will appear the same on both screens.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a raster image. Raster means that the file is made from individual pixels, like colored blocks, to create the image. So when it's scaled larger than the size it's was created as, it gets "blocky" or "pixlelated." The JPEGs we provide are high resolution.
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) also raster, but able to have a transparent background. Widely popular for use on the web, PNG (pronounced "ping") files are typically smaller in size.
If you need any other file formats it's best to ask the individual designers if they can provide them before selecting a winner. In the instance above, AI (Adobe Illustrator) and PSD (Photoshop) files were provided along with the logo on an alternate background color. You can contact 48HoursLogo Staff through the Support Page with any questions or special circumstances. Our staff will be happy to help you in a timely manner.
For more information on the contests at 48HoursLogo.com, check out our last blog post, Blind is Better.
I hope this post has been helpful and made your experience with us even easier. Leave me comments below with any additional questions for a follow up post! Thanks!

We've all been there. We went on a few dates with someone who was less than sane, but due to our naiveté, foolishness, or just plain horniness, we persevered, thinking they would change. Hell, perhaps you the reader are yourself the insane one, but keep reading anyway. This article may help you as well in your dating life.
Even though we've all dated, and perhaps continue to date these individuals who are hopelessly flawed, it is never too late to stop this self-destructive behavior. While it may be alluring at the beginning (especially since crazies seem to be amazing in bed), you are heading down the road to a hell of a life with this toxic individual – literally. My advice to you is to run, and run as fast as you can when you encounter these people.
Here is what to pay attention to when dating someone so that you can usher these crazies out of your life before they get entrenched in it. And by "entrenched", I'm referring to an "accidental" pregnancy (probably pre-meditated by him or her) since they desperately want someone to cling on to since no one else can handle them for very long.
1) The First Date
Everyone should be on their absolute best behavior on the first date. If they act even moderately nutty, flash anger, or do anything significant to make you uncomfortable or make you raise an eyebrow, then move on. If they can't control themselves to put up their best front on the very first encounter, you know it will only go downhill as they get more comfortable. Tread with caution.
2) Their History
This involves everything from their prior dating history to their own personal history with family and friends. You're going to have to casually ask questions to get this info, but it is probably the most valuable info you will need to determine whether this person should be in a straight jacket or a garter belt in your bedroom. In a nutshell: if they have had many very short term relationships which seem to always end because of their ex and not them, this is often a big sign. People don't keep getting dumped or broken up with so frequently after a short time unless something is wrong with the dumpee.
Also, if they don't have many friends or are estranged from their entire family because according to them their "whole family is crazy", chances are, that person themselves is crazy and has been disowned. Run.
3) They Want To Fast Forward Everything
Some people go on two dates and Ms. Crazy is already discussing whether you two should move in together, what you should name your kids, and when should you open a joint bank account. Now, I do understand that two people can meet and fall in love overnight, however if you're nowhere near feeling the same thing as they do, then something is amiss with that person for acting like this so soon. Run.
[Tweet "You can be someone's boyfriend or someone's psychiatrist, but you shouldn't be both! #datingadvice"]4) They Try To Be Controlling
If the guy or girl you're dating is trying to tell you quit your job, telling you how to dress and who your friends should be within a few dates, you've found a nut-job. This person will get increasingly controlling as time goes on. Unless you love to be dominated by someone, then RUN.
5) Drama Queens
Out of the blue, they will create drama. People who are drama queens can't wait to engage in this destructive behavior because it is an addiction to them. The second that they feel comfortable with you, they will begin testing the waters with a little bit of drama to see how you react. The more you tolerate, the more they will unleash.
I once dated a major drama queen. We had already gotten hot and heavy after two dates. On only our third phone call, I had made a casual joke about a threesome (which she had jokingly mentioned before I did). She was so offended that she hung up on me and refused to talk to me for a week. Since I allowed that behavior to be acceptable, I opened the door to constant drama. Fortunately I escaped that ugly scenario… after two and a half years! Point being, if you see drama early on when everyone is supposed to be on their best behavior, RUN!
Don't Walk, Run.
You can be someone's boyfriend or someone's psychiatrist, but you shouldn't be both.
While it might be exciting in the short term, dating these mental patients will give you sleepless nights and unnecessary gray hair. It's better to be single than be poisoned with their issues. Some of you like dating people with flaws because you want to "fix" the person. If you want to fix something, go become a mechanic or a handyman. You deserve much better than you think.
Good luck, and Date Great!

Subsistence farming using bullocks was largely replaced with large tracts of land ploughed by tractors and mechanized harvesters and using GMOs to enhance crop immunity. And the now the next phase in the evolution of agriculture is a large-scale single crop unit that would give unprecedented output because drones would be deployed for multiple functions.
With rapidly growing population, environmental degradation, global warming and the reduction of arable land, food security will be an acute issue and feeding the teeming population would require innovation in agricultural methods and the extensive use of drone technology.
By 2050, the global population will be around 10 billion, and to avoid food shortage, agricultural production will have to be doubled.
Use of drones in Precision agriculture
Precision agriculture, using GPS, GNSS and drones, maximizes the farm yield and helps the farmer to determine which crop is most suited as per the soil quality and geological conditions. The use of technology also warns the farmers in advance to take precautionary measures in case of unforeseen vagaries of nature.
While precision agriculture is no more a new concept, but it is further undergoing transformations and embedding new technologies for better optimization of agricultural problems.
Drones have a big role to play in precision agriculture and the role of drones would only increase and deliver the best quality outcome.
Drones fitted with high-resolution cameras and precise sensors can be flown over thousands of hectares of farms and gather data, which could be utilized to map pest damage, crop stress and per hectare yield. Drone imagery would assist the farmer to monitor what's going on in his farm, without the need of surveying the farm all by himself or hiring people for it.
The farmer would get the precise idea that on which areas he should focus more, where to allocate more resources, and whether or not the area is suited for a particular crop or not, and what would be the probability of a high yield.
This would certainly empower the farmers and mitigate uncertainty and vulnerability that always hovers over the agricultural sector. It is not that only the big farmers would benefit from drone technology. As governments put more emphasis on incentivizing the adoption of this technology and drones would be widely used in agriculture, in the future, they would be widely used as essential machines for cultivation.
Also Read: Precision agriculture can maximise productivity, ensure food security
Multiple applications
Apart from capturing aerial imagery, drones would also be used for sprinkling water and pesticides on the crops. This would save both time and wastage. Spraying using drones would be highly targeted and the drone would figure out and spray as per requirements.
Similarly, drones can be deployed to spray herbicides on the farms. This would be a highly efficient method as currently herbicides are sprayed over the entire length and breadth of the form, but using drones herbicides would be sprayed directly on the unwanted weeds in the farm.
Other special types of drones can also determine the exact quantity of fertilizers that would be needed in the fields. This would not only save fertilizers but also maintain ecological balance, as less of ozone-depleting gasses would be emitted with a targeted usage of fertilizers.
Using a machine known as Greenseeker, sensors measure crop nitrogen deficiencies in real time and then predict yield potential for the crop using the agronomic vegetative index NDVI.
Drones would benefit farmers and everyone engaged in the agricultural sector in numerous ways. Farmers would be able to save time, money, and increase their knowledge about the growth patterns of different crops. Simultaneously, increased productivity and environmental protection would be in tandem.

Cape - Topshop Jumper - Zara Skirt - Zara Boots - Topshop Sunglasses - Le Specs
Well, I can't believe I haven't blogged this cape yet. I picked up this Topshop cape over christmas and I have almost lived in it ever since. It goes over everything, dresses, jumpers and jeans, and can even be clinched in with a nice belt. Capes are so versatile for this weather, and I was drawn to the dash of orange in this one. Topshop actually seems to have bypassed Zara in becoming my new favourite store at the moment. And these boots I paired with this chilled out outfit are another Toppers snap up.
I got these boots for Christmas, having been searching for the perfect pair of flat boots for ages. What I loved about these was how low at the ankle they were; they could even pass as shoes rather than boots. It's sometimes nicer to have flat shoes with a mini skirt, it makes it a little more playful and on the plus side, it gives your feet a bit of a rest at the same time! I think the boots have sold out online now, but Topshop have such a good shoe selection at the moment that I'm sure you could find a similar pair online.

5 Tips to Mix Modern and Traditional Styles for Your Kitchen
When it comes to designing your own home, you should consider not sticking only to one particular style. Unless, of course, you are very passionate about it. Whether you like modern, contemporary, or a traditional design… Read More →

Lately, I've been cruising Etsy for outfits. Because Eden is somewhat awkwardly sized compared to an American Girl – she's a bit skinnier and a bit shorter than your average American Girl doll and so I try to find clothes that will fit and look good given her unique coloring. And sometimes I just buy things for Mari and Elyse because they deserve them too. And besides seeing a whole lot of GeneriDresses and pillowcase dresses and a bunch of horrible Native woo woo shit, I'm seeing a whole lot of really, really bad pictures. And there's a few reasons that these pictures are bad and why these are things that just should not be done.
Lets talk about them, shall we?
1. Auto Focus is Your Friend
Okay, so, now that your eyes have recovered from that blurry situation there, lets talk about this.
If you are a craftster who's focus is making little doll clothes to sell, it would probably help a lot if your pictures were clear. I don't know that there's a huge market for crocheted shoes, but you know. There might be someone looking for just that. and if they are looking for that, then they'd probably like to be able to tell what it is they're buying.
Also, in the case of knit items, don't stand them on a knit surface like a doily. Make your item stand out.
Making sure the pictures of the items you want to sell are clear and easy to discern is important if you want people to part with their hard-earned money to line your pockets with some of that green paper with dead presidents on it. Most digital cameras these days not only give you a few seconds to preview the picture, but you can press a button and go back and check and compare photos to see which one looks best before calling your job done.
If your picture looks like the one above, your job is not done.
Also, please take into consideration that there are people in this world who are photosensitive, and something that blurry could send them straight into a migraine or worse, a seizure. If you want to sell things to people, it's probably better that you don't cause them to have a grand mal while they're browsing your shop, but maybe that's just me.
In the above example, we have "doin' it right." The picture is clear, you can easily see how the shoe fits on the doll's foot, and what it looks like, and there are also some examples of the shoe without the doll's foot in it so you can look easily at the construction of the shoe. The background is not textured and all in all, this is an example of what you should be striving for. I'd buy the shit out of these shoes if I had an outfit they'd go with.
2. The Right Doll for the Runway
Which doll you use to model your doll clothes is just as important as how you photograph them. The perfect lighting, nice simple backdrop and perfectly focused camera mean bupkiss if you put your outfit on a doll that doesn't look good in it.
Now, I know. I know not everyone has more than one doll, and sadly, even people who do have more than one doll don't necessarily have any dolls beyond the ever-present light skintone that pervades AG and Adjacent collections everywhere. But the fact of the matter is, there are just some colors that don't look good on a doll with a light skintone. That's where cheaper dolls come in. Springfield Collection, Positively Perfect Divah, even Madame Alexander and supposedly Our Generation (though I've never seen a black OG doll in my Target) all have reasonably priced dolls of color if you can't shell out $122.95 after shipping to get an American Girl of Color to be your model.
Orange is one of those colors that just does not look good on a light skinned doll. In the above picture, it washes Ruthie out and makes her skin take on a somewhat funny tone, which is not what you want your dress to do to your model if you want to sell the item in question. Yellow and orange are just not colors that should be on the paler girls, because those colors just wash them out.
But you take that same color and put it on a doll with darker skin? And you can watch that color go from "Oh… erm… that's nice," to "Ooooh, that's nice!" If you mostly own light skinned dolls, make sure you test your color palettes to make sure they look good. If they don't, get a cheap doll to cover what you lack, or see if a friend has a doll you can borrow. Or just don't make the clothes. Your sales will thank you for it.
And finally… the thing that inspired this whole post.
3. Instagram Filters are for Selfies, Not Sales
Can you guys help me pick a filter?
I don't know if I should go with XX Pro or Valencia
I wanna look tan
– The Chainsmokers, #SELFIE
Have a brief break from the complaining and enjoy the cast of Broadway's Kinky Boots
celebrating one year on Broadway with some #SELFIE action!
I really didn't think that this was going to be a thing that was even going to have to be said, but alas I spoke too soon.
If you have to ask yourself which filter to use, you need to just stop, step away from the Instagram or Photoshop Actions to Replicate Instagram and just go outside for a bit because no. No.
Just… what?
Is the shirt supposed to be white? Or cream? What shade of blue is that supposed to be? Why is it floating on a blurry thing, why can't I just see what it looks like on the doll? These are just some of the questions. And this girl's shop (which I won't link) is just full of stuff like this.
Besides, again, being potentially harmful to photosensitive people, this is just ugly. I can't even begin to want to buy that. When I have to have things that will hopefully look good on not only my two brown girls, but also my green girl and my soon-to-be Marie-Grace who is getting moddied out? I need to know colors will look good on them. I can't make that decision based on an overly filtered picture with the body blurried out and greyscaled.
Now see this? This is doing it right. Using natural light (or daylight bulbs) and if there's any Photoshopping, it's minimal. You can easily figure out the shades of pink used in the outfit and decide if it's going to work for you and your girls.
Repeat after me one more time: I, [your name here], will never use an Instagram filter on a picture of doll clothes I am trying to sell.
Please, for the love of holey Swiss cheese, stop doing these things.

This shot took some planning! First the shot, next the explanation!
Helen and I ventured out onto her roof in London at sunset. I placed the Canon 1DsIII and 50mm f/1.2 on a tripod, focussed it and set it to f/2.0. A flash gun was off camera on a stand to the right of the shooting position.
Firstly Helen sat on the right hand side of the roof with a red wig on. Then, while she changed, I took a series of shots of the background to blend into an HDR.
Helen then posed on the left.
I merged three shots to an HDR for the background, blended in the two Helens and finally added some of the original sunset back in to enrich the sky!

| 10.6°C Dublin
Seven words shocked and shamed a group of underachieving talents, shaking them into a vigorous reaction that now sees them atop the Premier League.
Trailing to Liverpool at Anfield on December 13, Arsenal's players sloped into the dressing-room at half-time to be met by a seething Arsene Wenger. "You don't deserve to wear the shirt,'' he screamed.
As this most cultured of managers rarely raises his voice, seven words dripping with acid burned into the consciences of his players, who tore into Liverpool after the break. Gone was their earlier diffidence, Arsenal passing the ball rather than the buck.
Glen Johnson was harried into an own goal, Andrei Arshavin launched the type of Russian-made missile that gave JFK sleepless nights and Arsenal really began to believe in themselves, in their title potential. In 38 days, they have made up nine points, overtaking Manchester United and Chelsea.
But hold the hype. Before the open-top bus is booked for a spin up the Holloway Road and Nick Hornby updates 'Fever Pitch', Arsenal know many arduous challenges lie ahead. Next Wednesday, they enter a period that Sky will probably call 'Judgment Fortnight': daunting trips to Villa Park and Stamford Bridge sit alongside visits from Wayne Rooney's United and Steven Gerrard's Liverpool.
Only after this sustained examination of Arsenal's character can a clearer picture emerge of their place in the landscape of English football.
Wenger is no fool. He can see his team also top the table because Chelsea and United dropped points unexpectedly in the first half of the season. Will those mistakes be repeated?
Carlo Ancelotti's Chelsea are well coached, well balanced and well motivated, deservedly remaining favourites for the title. United should never be written off with Rooney on the ball and Alex Ferguson on a mission.
Similarly, the fear that dares not speak its name at the Emirates -- Cesc Fabregas falling lame again -- could always strike. In a season plagued by injuries at many clubs, an alarming development the authorities need to investigate, Arsenal's momentum could be slowed by a hamstring, groin strain or stress fracture.
Gooners will respond that Arsenal have survived without Fabregas, but he does raise their tempo. At least Robin van Persie, who returned to training last week to step up his rehab after ankle surgery, hopes to resume playing in April. Now that would be elegant cavalry.
Flaws exist. In Van Persie's absence, Arsenal lack a 20-goal forward in contrast to the Chelsea of Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka. Perhaps if Eduardo enjoys a run of games he might banish any doubts in his mind, and others', that he is still inhibited by the memory of the Martin Taylor incident.
In midfield, Denilson has not built on a promising start. At the back, the goalkeeper, Manuel Almunia, is not good enough, remaining vulnerable to high balls. While acknowledging all these concerns, and paying due deference to rivals of the quality of Drogba and Anelka, Rooney and Patrice Evra, what is undeniable is that a window of opportunity has opened for Arsenal, prised ajar by Wenger's seven words.
Longer-term dynamics underpin their development. To borrow a phrase from the political archives, the inevitability of gradualness defines Wenger's approach. Evolution not revolution. Be patient.
Wenger's young players are growing season by season, the likes of Alex Song gaining in maturity and a tactical appreciation of his role, anchoring midfield to liberate Fabregas.
Arsenal are also leaders of the Premier League partly because they now have more leaders. The captain's armband sits snugly around Fabregas' left bicep but others readily take on responsibility. Tomas Rosicky consistently troubles opponents, particularly when moving inside and linking with Fabregas.
Thomas Vermaelen has proved an inspired purchase at £10m, partnering William Gallas well, contributing five league goals and exuding a winning mentality. Since being stripped of the captaincy, Gallas has driven Arsenal on through word and deed, some of his tackles showing that the team are not just about pretty 'Wengerball'.
However contrite Arsenal were publicly about Gallas' shocking challenge on Bolton Wanderers' Mark Davies on Wednesday, privately some within the dressing-room are not disappointed they are being depicted as hard men. For too long they have been dismissed as a soft touch. Arsenal's football now comprises Beauty and the Beast, Fabregas and Gallas.
Such sentiments found approval among a terrace fraternity tired of their team being outmuscled by Bolton.
"I hope the bloke (Davies) is OK, but once that tackle went in, it sent a message to Bolton; enough is enough, play fair or we go to war,'' read one post on a fans' forum. "Arsenal always try to play the 'Beautiful Game'. Other teams take advantage of that. It's good to see we have this in our game.''
Fans do have selective memories. Abou Diaby used his studs to tattoo the ankles of Bolton's Ivan Campo in 2006 and Gretar Steinsson in 2008. Yet an anxiety of being bullied by Bolton, particularly in the Sam Allardyce era, has often preyed on Arsenal's mind. Perhaps that explains Gallas' challenge, rightly described as "akin to assault'' by Owen Coyle, the Bolton manager.
The Football Association's refusal to charge the Arsenal centre-half beggars belief. Happy to ban managers for speaking their minds, the FA allows dangerous lunges like Gallas' to go unpunished.
Inspired by seven words, Arsenal may have ascended to the summit, but they have vacated the moral high ground.
Maybe in the modern game it is impossible to occupy both. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

Saul smirked at Ian. His bemusement and the reason for it were clear to Ian. His memory loss entertained Saul. Ian couldn't help but think he should know exactly why Saul wanted all of this, but the memory was too elusive. No answers were coming to him. Whatever knowledge might be locked in the recesses of his mind, it would be of no help to him now.
Saul turned and looked down at the floor at Cyrus's feet. Ian could see his friend was hurt and exhausted. But this was the first time he noticed the strange puddle on the floor. At first glance, it might have looked like some kind of strange oil. The liquid was awash with colors, slowly shifting as it seemed to shift across the floor. But the movements were clearly not just a flow down an imperceptible dip in the floor. The amorphous blob shifted on its own. Ian couldn't hide his horror as he realized this object before him was alive.
"See someone you recognize, Ian? Your foolish friend and his female companion walked right into my trap. It took only a few seconds for my associates and I to secure them. They didn't even put up a fight. Now you can finally watch that foolish harlot you've had in your midst as she takes her true form."
Ian turned back to Saul. "You act like you've worked everything out, but I'm still lost. Are you saying that thing on the floor is Marilyn?"
"I'm saying it is an amorphous being. I worked hard to create it over sixty years ago, but somewhere along the way the host body failed to receive its gift. Another mind took control over what would have been my most perfect creature. Now I've unlocked the true power within the creature, unleashed the minds that were meant to rule over the body. Your dear friend Marilyn was just a figment, a dream. Now there's only The Composite."
Ian turned to Sandra. "Seriously, I wish I could remember meeting this guy before. He's monologuing like a comic book villain. Does he always do this?"
The controller simply smiled and shrugged.
