Guest Post From Rachael Sage

Guest Post From Rachael Sage. Hey Lovely readers, I have a guest post for you today, from up and coming singer Rachael Sage. You can check it out below, plus check out some of her music as well.




I recently changed my hair from purple to magenta, so of course I needed a new lipstick! my former default of dark red just doesn't work well with my new haircolor...



My new favorite is MAC "Impassioned", a great shade of fuchsia. I debuted it recently at my New York CD Release party, and I was really happy with how well it stayed on even after an hour and a half of singing, drinking lots of water, and generally bumping into the microphone, which I do a lot because I shut my eyes when I play piano and guitar! Even after another hour of chatting with friends and fans after the show and going to another club for drinks, it still looked fresh. Plus, it perfectly compliments my favorite Spring wardrobe colors, which at the moment are various shades of purple and blue. On stage, I accentuate it with a little extra gloss on top and maybe even some pink glitter, but I think it looks great just for daytime just as it is. I also appreciate that it's called "Impassioned" - which is exactly what I try to be most, as a songwriter and performer! --

Steal Lauren Conrads Gorgeous Smooth Summer Legs

Steal Lauren Conrads Gorgeous Smooth Summer Legs. When it comes summer style, smooth legs is key. After all we wear our legs out daily during the warmer season. Look below for Lauren Conrad's top tips for smooth summer legs.



Exfoliate, exfoliate! I recommend Fresh’s Brown Sugar Body Polish or making your own. A great scrub will slough away dead skin cells, leaving your legs polished and primed for increased moisturizer absorption. To make your own, simply mix together olive oil and sea salt with a squeeze of lemon juice until it’s a thick paste. Moisturize. Twice a day—once in the morning (after you shower) and once at night before bed. Be mindful. Especially with what you put in your body! Before a big event and during the summer season I aim to really cut down my intake of salt and refined sugars. Staying hydrated is also really important if you want to reduce bloating and water retention. Lunge, lift and squat. To keep your legs lovely year round, get in the habit of squeezing in a few sets of lunges, leg lifts and squats every day. This will totally pay off come summertime. Keep it tan. Nothing slims your legs like a great tan! My favorite sunless tanner is by Kate Somerville, but I hear L’Oreal has great options too. Source
