Shalini’s New Year’s Eve Bollywood Look

This year, putting on that LBD and sparkling jewelry to hit the party scene might be just the right thing! New Year’s Eve is the best time to experiment with that sultry come hither look you’ve been waiting to try! Here’s my plan for getting party ready – the Bollywood way - for the most celebrated night around the world!

For the perfect New Year’s Eve party look, I recommend my BoHo Exotic Eyes Kit. We start with the eyes here since that’s where we want all the drama!! Start by sweeping the Maharani Rose eye shadow all over the eye and follow with the Rajah Brown shadow on the lid only. Remember sexy sultry eyes, a la Bollywood, can be smudged so no need for perfection in applying the brown. Rim your entire eye with the kohl eyeliner for that sexy nighttime glamour. Apply Flutter lashes on the top lash line and finish with a few coats of Global Goddess Exotic Eyes Blackest Mascara on your top and bottom lashes.

Next, apply Complexion Perfection Duo foundation to your face and dab the concealer around the eye area to even out your skin tone and brighten your eyes. Finish your face with the Chai Cheek Color that’s best for your skin tone on the apples of your cheeks and Global Goddess Floating Diamonds lightly dusted on your cheekbones and temples for that final glamorous shimmer. A light sweep of the Global Goddess Moroccan Mystique Lip Veil in a light color, like Sandstorm, on your lips and your sultry Bollywood look is ready for the perfect New Year’s Eve party! The only accessory needed is a great smile!

Have fun, be sexy and Have a happy and healthy New Year!
xoxo

Shalini’s Tips for a Romantic New Year’s Eve at Home

It’s Destination Glamour at Home as I prepare for a romantic New Year’s Eve by the fire. The table is set for a candlelit dinner, the champagne is chilling and the fire is popping. New Year’s Eve at home means understated sexiness and glamour – saved for your special someone. Here are my tips to for a romantic and very special look for a night at home!

Start by smoothing the Upgrade Complexion Face Primer with soothing licorice on your face for a smooth drape of liquid silk to boost microcirculation and brighten skin tone. Next, apply Complexion Perfection Duo where coverage is needed on your face and don’t forget to dot and blend the concealer under your eyes for instant lightness. Sweep the Goddess Glow South Pacific Shimmer up your cheekbones, down the bridge of your nose and on your eyelids to add that burst of sexy color!


Adding a few coats of Exotic Eyes Blackest Mascara to your top and bottom lashes will open your eyes and transform them to the dark sultry sexiness to bat at your honey through the candlelight.

Finish with a dusting of Goddess Lights Parisian Nights Face & Body Shimmer on your cheekbones and décolletage. And don’t forget a little on your shoulders! This touch of Parisian elegance will add a sexy shimmer to your skin.

For something that smells gorgeous and yummy, try a bit of the Coconut Amla hair oil on your legs and arms for a soft scent that will keep him wondering where you’ve been and don’t forget to save some for later – the hair oil also makes a great massage oil for some after dinner fun! Finally, slip in to your most comfortable sexy dress or silky lounging pajamas.

I like to serve simple and decadent food that is easy to prepare and share – baked brie to start, grilled fish or filet and roasted vegetables, and chocolate covered strawberries make a perfect dinner.

Like me, you’re now ready for a romantic New Year’s Eve at home with your special someone! Enjoy!

Wishing you health and love and a very Happy New Year!
xoxo

Oatmeal--A New England Winter Skin Soother

With the winter winds swirling around them, New Englanders love a big bowl of piping-hot oatmeal to start their day, and a nice oatmeal bath to end it. Not only does this ingredient for a fiber-rich breakfast warm you up from the inside out, it also makes for a comforting bath to aid dry, itchy skin.

Pour a cup of dry oatmeal into a piece of cheesecloth, tie into a ball, and plop it into a warm bath. This oatmeal "milk" is perfect for soothing the itchy scales of winter skin.

Hi Goddesses -

A lot of you wanted the recipes I shared on the CBS Early Show this morning. And yes, I had a great time teaching Harry Smith a thing or two about beauty! Here is the segment info from www.cbsnews.com


(CBS) Many people do not understand that the all-natural spa remedies are just that -- all natural. In fact, many of the ingredients for spa treatments consist of things you might find in your kitchen: flat beer, fresh lemon juice, or sugar.

You can combine a few of these ingredients and create hair tonic, hand scrub or a facial mask.

Shalini Vadhera, celebrity make-up artist and author of "Passport to Beauty," says with a few ingredients and 30 minutes you can transform yourself to a spa beautiful customer. And the best part? It will cost you next to nothing.

Anti-Wrinkle & Reviving Face Mask
This is a very simple recipe that will rejuvenate your face and is a great anti-wrinkle remedy. Take two bunches of green, seedless grapes, and crush to a fine pulp. Mix in two tablespoons of flour to finish the paste. Apply to face, and allow to sit on skin for fifteen to twenty minutes. Then wash off with warm water and pat dry.

Soften, Brighten Your Hands
This is a great way to exfoliate, condition and nourish your hands, knees an elbows. Juice two fresh lemons and juice combine with 1 cup of granulated sugar. Leave on for 3 to 5 minutes, then rinse with warm water and pat dry.

Strengthen Your Nails
This particular remedy will make your nails stronger than acrylic. Simply mince one tablespoon of fresh garlic and add to your favorite clear nail polish. Allow that bottle to sit for one week and apply as needed.

Add Luster To Hair
If your hair feels flat and dull, coconut oil will take care of you. Simply wash as usual and use coconut oil as a conditioner. Apply as needed, leave on for a couple of minutes and rinse with warm water.

Get Rid of Frizzies
If your hair gets frizzy, this may sound unusual but it works. Simply shampoo as usual and rinse with flat beer. How do you make beer flat? Simply add some salt and allow to sit until it seems to lack the froth.

Prevent Stretchmarks
If you want to prevent stretchmarks, the Indians have a sure fire way. Combine a cup of plain yogurt with a teaspoon of tumeric. Mix well and apply to area for 10 minutes. Skin will look light, clean, shiny and revived. In India, women will apply this mixture before their wedding for extra help glowing on their big day.
