 1. Foundation: Trade your liquid formula for a cream to powder. Not only will it accommodate dry skin and glide smoothly over any dry patches you may have, cream foundations are perfect for fall photo shoots. You've been meaning to schedule family pics, right? 2. Eyebrows: This fall, we will see bold eyebrows and natural eyebrows. With bold eyebrows, you don't want to overdo it and look masculine. To avoid that, sweep them with a brow gel. For a more natural, fully arched look, use a brow powder. Well defined eyebrows frame the face and make it more symmetrical. With either look, neat and well groomed eyebrows will make your eyes look elegant and sophisticated with or without eye shadow. 3. Smoky Eye: This can be done with any color and not just the traditional black. Purple looks great with any eye color. Deep burgundy, brown and copper shades will be very popular for this upcoming fall season. For a more distinct look, line your upper lid and waterline with a deep black eyeliner. To complete the look, add a few coats of mascara or false lashes. 4. Lips: Time to toss your gloss! Well, maybe not toss it. Trade it for a bold, deep, ruby lipstick! Matte lipsticks are trending more now for all seasons but they are especially popular during the fall. If your favorite lip color is shimmery, just apply an extra coat and blot with paper. That technique will create a perfect matte finish. Don't be afraid to step outside the box and try one of the many bold colors that are out there! And there you have it ladies! Remember, fall season is unpredictable and can change in a heartbeat. Fall makeup is changeable too. So play it up a bit. From flirty to fierce or keep it subtle! It's your choice!

 Choosing a college major is one of the most important decisions that you will ever make. Of course most people are concerned about financial security but it's important to choose a career path that you can live with. Here are a few tips that can help better prepare you for your new journey! IT WON'T HURT TO WAIT: Give yourself time. You can start college courses without having a major. Some students wait until their second year and most even change majors after making a decision. TIME IS MONEY: College is expensive so you don't want to do a lot of unnecessary waiting. Dedicate your time to making the best decision for you. Once you know what you want for your future, you can start making detailed plans. DO YOUR RESEARCH: There's nothing more effective than good old fashion research. Weigh your options and take notes . Talk to an adviser once you have some idea of the direction you would like to pursue. Each major requires a different amount of college credits. DO IT FROM THE HEART: "If you're doing what you love it doesn't feel like work at all." You will most likely be more dedicated to a career if you are passionate about it. Disliking what you do can lead to depression and even mental breakdown. We wish you much success and remember to choose wisely! K.

K. Graves  The holidays have come and gone, but winter is still here. Between the blistering cold outside and the heat blasting inside, it is a must to keep skin hydrated and radiant. Here are a few tips to protect your skin from the most savage winter weather. 1. Exfoliate: Exfoliation is needed because dry skin build up can prevent moisturizers from penetrating. This step helps your moisturizer to absorb better. 2. Moisturize: Your face is subject to lose more moisture during the winter than the rest of your body because it is exposed the most. Moisturizing your skin with one that fits your needs will help retain moisture and make you look more radiant. 3. Use a humidifier: There's nothing like being in a nice cozy home when it's cold. But the inside heat can also rob your skin of its moisture. Keep the temperature comfortable, but not too hot for too long. Use a humidifier to replace lost indoor moisture. 4. Take care of your hands: Your hands have the thinnest skin on your body and they are usually exposed just as much as your face. Keep them moisturized by using a moisturizing hand cream and wear gloves. 5. Avoid wool and other irritating materials: Wearing wool, nylon or polyester can make your dry, itchy skin worse. The best material for you to wear is cotton. If you have to wear wool, wear a light one like merino wool. It's less irritating. Or you can opt to wear a cotton shirt underneath. By LaCrecia Steward

This initiative provides support through education, wellness, and employment opportunities. In 2014 and 2015 education would be center of the final two initiatives - Reach Higher and Let Girls Learn.

First Lady Michelle Obama - our Legendary Woman in History Source: whitehouse.gov  The fear of failure is called "atychiphobia". It is when we allow fear to stop us from doing the things that can move us forward to achieve our goals. Fear can keep you from experiencing everything life has to offer. So many people will allow fear to overtake them which, can ultimately keep you from growing. Let's see how we can overcome fear together. Acknowledge the problem: Don't try to avoid situations. This does not make issues disappear.
 It is always best to talk with a friend or seek professional help if you feel overwhelmed. We all experience anxiety at some point in life and you do not have to face your fears alone.
