Seasonal Color Analysis: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and Their Colors
Tumblr media
If anyone wants to see more in-depth about David and Gillian and their colors, click to read more; but if you're okay without the extra details, no worries! We'll catch up on the next X-Files meta post.
Quick Summary of my first post: GA and DD both have red undertones (as seen in the above picture); but the red does not overtake the yellow in DD's skin (giving him a Warm Hue undertone) while the red tips over the scale into pink for GA (giving her a Cool Hue undertone.) GA is a Clear Winter, meaning her chroma (High) is first consideration when it comes to colors compared to their Hues (warm or cool); David is a Soft Autumn, meaning his chroma (Low) is also first consideration when it comes to Hues (again, warm or cool.) Because undertone does not change or fade with age, the same application for their younger selves applies still in their 50s and 60s.
TLDR: Explaining myself a little further with DD and GA's colors photoshopped near their face-- providing receipts, if you will~.
Saw a few posts (reblogged on my timeline if you're curious) and wanted to clarify some points I made on my color analysis post here:
David, Gillian, and Jewellry
David still has his warm and red undertone-- which doesn't change with age-- and can pull off cool colors as well as his predominant warm ones because he is Soft Autumn (meaning: if the chroma of whatever color remains muted, he can pretty much swing it.) He is encouraged to wear bronze, silver, pewter, rose gold, and other metals that err on the muted side.
Gillian is encouraged to wear White and Platinum jewelry over silver because of those metal's bright, cool undertone because she is a Bright/Clear Winter (if she were a Summer instead of a winter, silver would be advised for its muted, cool undertone.) She can also pull off gold because of her Bright Chroma (present in the warm yellows of her Bright Winter Palette, shown below.) Gillian is going to look great in some Springs instead of some Winters because of the Chroma consideration of her skin: if the color, cool or warm, is muted, she doesn't look as fantastic as she would with brighter colors, cool or warm. It's hard to tell with her modern appearances because of the frequent use of body tan, but her skin is naturally quite pale and cool and porcelain. If her outfits verge too warm, then her hair becomes brassier, and her skin takes on an orange tinge.
DAVID IN HIS COLORS
Here is the Soft Autumn palette below:
Tumblr media
And here are my (bad) editing attempts of David in said colors:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The greens below even bring out more olive in his skin (compared to the very warm red usually present):
Tumblr media
When David is swatched with Winter and Autumn colors, the differences really show up, I think:
Tumblr media
The Winter swatches are vastly cooler than his skin, giving it a muddied, grayed out appearance; the Autumns, however, inject a level of warmth back into it, complimenting his undertone no matter what lighting he's in.
Lastly, here's David in a Winter muted Hue (left) and a Autumn muted Hue (right) to demonstrate the swatches a bit better.
Tumblr media
Although he likely had very little sleep when filming either scene, David looks washed out, drained, and tired in the black; and significantly less tired and washed out in the brown.
GILLIAN IN HER COLORS
Here is the Bright/Clear Winter Palette below:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When GA is swatched with Spring and Clear Winter colors, the difference becomes more pronounced, I think:
Tumblr media
As you can see, spring colors aren't bad; but the winter colors bring out a delicate, healthy pink to her skin (and hair.) Specifically: the nude shade on the left is warmer peach compared to her skin, whereas the nude shade on the right blends into her cool pink undertone quite naturally.
And lastly, here's Gillian in a Spring bright Hue (left) and a Winter bright Hue (right) to demonstrate the swatches a bit better.
Tumblr media
There's a "GA vs. the shirt" quality the blue Spring has that the white Winter does not.
Masculine v. Feminine Aesthetic Footnote
I think I covered everything in my beautiful first post here and the follow-up response here. Have at!
CONCLUSION
I hope my facts are all in order, and that I haven't forgotten to present anything that might lead to more confusion, etc.
If we don't agree, all well and good.
Thanks for reading~
Enjoy!

hey there,
i was wondering how you see characters apperences in the story. we know like their eye colours, and like remus has his black hair and sharp teeth, virgil has black and purple hair but is there anything else you can tell us? im loving the story so far, youre honestly a fantastic writer man, be proud of yourself and what you have created
Hi! Okay, so one thing to know about me is that I am NOT a visual thinker. Like, I have a lot of trouble just imagining images in my head. But! I have facts about my character's appearances that I know for sure. Some of them are I have to look through my notes and search my memory for, but they're there.
Luckily I do have Virgil's and Remy's descriptions already completely fleshed out because I was talking to an artist who wanted to draw them.
Virgil has a lot of lean muscle mostly obscured by his clothes. Very angular face, sharp jawline and sharp cheekbones. Pale white like a human who doesn't get enough sun. Virgil's scars aren't usually visible. They're mostly on his torso front and back but there are some on his limbs too. He also has self-harm scars on both arms. His hair is black.
Virgil likes to wear pants that are tight around his legs and purple shirts under his black and grey checkered hoodie. In the faerie hill and the forest he doesn't wear shoes.
Remy is more a classic twink. Skinny, thin limbs, twig legs, some muscle but not a lot. Like, you can't really see it. Face more rounded than Virgil's. Pale ivory white that could not pass as human skin. Remy has a verticle scar on the right side of his chin and two scars on the left side of his neck that run parallel to each other and go from the point when his neck meets his shoulder around and down to his collarbone. He often wears pink-tinted lipgloss. He has fangs. Not super long or anything, but there. His hair is black with tiny silver dots like stars in the night sky.
Remy likes wearing white silk-like shirts with v-necks under his leather jacket. The jacket has zippers. Don't ask me where the zippers are, I just know that they're there. He favors black skinny jeans though sometimes he wears white or grey ones. He also does not wear shoes in faerieland.
Fae anatomy can be very different. The royal's anatomy is more humanoid than most. They're among the most likely to be able to blend in with humans.
A few differences all fae have in common:
pointed ears
very sharp canines. Not fangs, just sharp. Remus is an exception in that all of his teeth are sharp.
long limbs
unnaturally long fingers
exceptionally beautiful. Who's to say whether that's magic or they're actually that beautiful.
They don't wear shoes unless they're on Earth for some reason. The exception is Janus when it's cold out.
I would also like to note that they are all strong but don't normally build muscle unless they are ridiculously strong (such as knights and other warriors). Otherwise, they have the muscles of an average person. Also note that the royal family doesn't have scars. They've had access to exceptionally powerful healing magic their entire lives. Also, the royals are all tan, with the twins being tanner than the rest and Janus being the tannest.
Janus has light brown hair. His faerie eye is yellow and his naga eye is gold. He has six arms and scales covering the left half of his body. His left hand and foot have black claws that look like longer and sharper nails. He has a long neck, fangs, and six arms. The fangs are noticeably longer than regular fae's sharp canines. Forked tongue and he can unhinge his jaw.
Janus wears his canon outfit in public. In the privacy of the royal quarters, he wears soft yellow sweaters and comfortable, loose clothing.
Roman has chestnut brown hair and red eyes. He is fucking strong and has the muscle to prove it. Nails are always breaking during training but he tries to keep them well-manicured. He's very particular about his hair which is styled the same as in the show.
Roman wears his prince outfit most of the time. Casually he wears a lot of crop tops and comfortable but revealing shirts.
Thomas looks like Thomas. Casually he wears roughly the same things but more fae. I haven't thought at all about what he wears formally.
Remus looks like Roman except all of his teeth are sharp, his cheeks are slightly sunken in, his hair is black with a white strip and styled the other way, he has a mustache, and his eyes are neon green. They're fraternal twins that just happen to look very similar. That includes muscle, Remus is a warrior too.
Remus wears his usual outfit formally. Casually he wears crop tops, booty shorts, anything fishnet, and just the weirdest clothes he can find that are still comfortable. Well, his definition of comfortable.
Logan has black hair and blue eyes. He wears formal fae clothing, though I'm not sure what that would look like. He wears his color and black a lot. No tie. I haven't thought much about him.
Patton has curly, blonde, shoulder-length hair and light-blue eyes. I also haven't thought much about him. He wears his normal outfit but his shirt and pants are made of different materials and his shirt isn't a polo, it's a more fae design.
That's all I can think of right now! If anyone has more specific questions about the characters' looks feel free to ask!

5 Ways to Dress Classy and Elegant
1. Wear the right fit
For petite women: stick to classic cuts and silhouettes because they make you appear taller and leaner – no mini skirts or shoulder pads!
For curvy women: stay away from too-tight dresses, but wear belts and belted jackets to show off your waist – this helps define your curves without being too over the top.
For plus-sized women: Don long, full skirts and buckle belts to balance your body. Basically, belt them big and wear them big!
2. Choose the right colours
Decide which color family you want to emphasize. Reds and oranges can help you look more vibrant. For a serene look, focus on cooler colors like blues and greens.
Red can be hard to pull off (especially if it clashes with your skin tone). Avoid wearing it with white or black if you don’t want to look like a traffic light! Wear red, but pair it with soft colors like pinks, oranges, purples, and yellows – these colors complement each other.
Neutral colors, like black, white, beige, brown, etc., look good together if they are different shades or textures. Your clothes shouldn’t blend together – you want to stand out.
Shades of gray, black, and navy blue can give off a professional vibe. For something more casual, olive green, light pink, and beige can all work well.
For classy plus-size women, the same rules apply, but be careful because darker colors can make you appear bigger than you actually are. Instead of wearing full brown or black dresses, wear black with muted tans and reds – they’ll brighten you up.
3. Wear the right materials
A good rule of thumb is to avoid shiny or flashy fabrics. Cashmere, wool, velvet, or silk are good safe bets, but you can also pick matte jerseys and cotton.
Make sure the color and style of the dress fit the occasion. For example, wool is a great material for a winter suit because it keeps you warm. Cotton is perfect for a summer shirt because it’s breathable. Likewise, silk has a luxurious feel, making it ideal for evening gowns and dress shirts.
Cheap dresses often use polyester and rayon, which are unbreathable. As with lycra, it’s stretchy and tacky. So, we recommend sticking to natural fibers.
4. Examples of classy outfits
Tops: If you want to dress simple but stylishly, pick a floral print blouse or a crisp button-down shirt. Button-up blouses or those with a tie, silk tops, simple tees, or anything that fits well can make you look cute and put together. Try lace or ruffles to add some femininity.
Bottoms:
A pair of jeans or trousers look great when opting for a classy but casual look.
Below-the-knee A-line or pencil skirts look chic with a blouse or button-down shirt.
Tapered pants look great with a nice blouse or blazer for a formal ensemble, as well as with a tank top or t-shirt for an everyday look.
Ankle pants flatter all body types and are versatile for both work and play.
Dresses: A little black dress is always an effortless option for classy dresses, as is a well-fitting shift or shirt dress. A-line, wrap, and sheath dresses are chic clothing styles that look great at any event.
5. Wear classic accessories
Wristwatches: Looking at your wrist is a much classier way to keep track of time while you’re out in a meeting or on a date.
Handbags: Consider the purpose. For carrying all of your stuff, choose a big satchel or tote. Something more formal? Try a clutch or small handbag.
Sunglasses: A summer must-have! Pick simple, understated designs without too much detail or embellishment. A good pair of cat-eye or tortoise-shell sunglasses looks elegant in natural colors. To spruce up your look, pick a frame in a neutral color like navy or gray.
Jewelry: You don’t have to buy Tiffany & Co. jewelry to look elegant – know what pieces to wear at what times. Go for one statement neckpiece and avoid layering heavy jewelry. For earrings, go for statement earrings or simple silver, pearl, gold, or diamond studs. Don’t be afraid of timeless pieces like rose gold bracelets.

Helluva Boss S2 E4 “Western Energy” (Part 3)
Part 3: “A Prince In Distress”
Tumblr media
It was another seemingly ordinary day in the Pride Ring. The sky seemed to glow a crimson red with hints of salmon pink. An array of city buildings were decorated with eyes and gold pointed horns jutting from the tops. Triangular features on the buildings gave the appearance of yellow fangs. Cars blared and spotlights flashed green, yellow, and red. Situated on a main street corner, between two tall buildings was a café. On top of the store was a constructed large white teacup with gold trim and a gold handle. It gave the appearance of brown tea being spilled over the store’s name in gold letters: “Richest Café.” A nearby sign on the side read: “Where the poor pour for you!”  Tables with purple tablecloths and chairs were positioned under a red awning. An inverted pentagram decorated a nearby building.
  Inside the elite café, fancy soft violin music played from speakers overhead. Quietly talking, holding their teacups with pinky fingers raised, were the many bird-like members of the Ars Goetia. Small imp servants in tuxedos and aprons were busy pouring tea for the royals and carrying platters of tea in cups, small cakes, eggs, hell-crab sandwiches, and other delicacies. Small chandeliers of four soft lavender lights hung overhead.
  Among the royals were the familiar faces of Stolas and Stella. With pinky finger raised, the swan-like spouse of Stolas sipped her tea, looking elegant in her pink and black dress and three-pointed gold crown. Her long black eyelashes extended past her face. She had carefully groomed her long white feathery hair and added tan eye-makeup on her eyelids.
  Her glowing red eyes narrowed as she lowered her cup of hot tea.
  “Stolas.”
  The Goetia prince wore his usual black top hat with a five-pointed gold crown on it and two small red eyes on it. He wore his red robe with a high tight collar up to his neck.
  “Stella,” Stolas returned with a glare of his own, black pinky raised as he, too, sipped his hot tea.
  A small imp wearing a tuxedo and a large purple bowtie, tried to keep steady as she held a large teapot, pouring tea for Stella.
  “(Censored “cunt”)” Stella barked at Stolas.
  “Witch,” Stolas retorted at his soon-to-be ex-wife.
  Another royal at the table groaned in frustration at the bickering couple.
  “FUCKISH! IMP! SUCKER!” Stella yelled at Stolas, standing up. The imp poured more tea for Stolas.
  “Why did you insist on meeting me here?” Stolas asked. He stared at his cellphone with a reminder popping up on the screen: “Deal at Ozzie’s Set.” He was meeting with the King of Lust to retrieve Asmodean crystals to help Blitzo keep entering the human world in case his grimoire got lost. And despite the dangers of the mortal world, it was a potential refugee in case things between authorities got out of hand.
  Stolas wondered how his imp companion was doing. He had texted Blitzo and tried to mend things from when they were at Ozzie’s. He had wanted to talk to him in person, but with both being tied down to their duties, it made the distance between them seem greater. Perhaps helping Blitzo with I.M.P. and not insisting on sex during each full moon would show Blitzo that he wanted a genuine partnership beyond the physical pleasures…
  The third royal member cleared his throat, snapping Stolas from his thoughts. He was Andrealphus, Stella’s brother, lover, and a marquis in the Ars Goetia. In contrast to Stella’s fiery eyes of rage, Andrealphus’ orbs glowed icy teal, cold and calculating. Andrealphus was known for his expertise in astronomy, geometry, turning foes into birds and more predominantly, his ice magic. He was a tall white peacock with a teal three-pointed crown and a teal scarf with a white snowflake design around his neck. His hair was short and light purple, his skin snowy white.
  Andrealphus turned to Stolas. “We wanted to properly discuss the terms of this divorce. I feel my darling sister deserves a bit more…compensation.”
  Stella revealed a sneaky grin, her fingers laced together. She seemed pleased that someone else was on her side. Now if only Stolas would drop dead then and there, her nagging feelings of anger and hurt would cease.
  Andrealphus continued to Stolas. “After all, you did CHEAT on the poor thing. Surely you owe…”
  Andrealphus imagined the feeling of Stolas’ five-pointed crown nestled on his head. Just the thought of basking in the prince’s wealth and gaining Stolas’ possessions made him shiver with delight.
  “Andrealphus!” snapped Stolas, gripping his teacup with two hands. “Cheating implies there was a betrayal.” He pointed accusingly at Stella. “This woman never gave two shits about me or our very much ‘arranged marriage.’ As far as I’m concerned, this divorce is far overdue.”
  Stolas wondered if Stella still loved his daughter, or if her feelings of rage toward him overshadowed any remaining innocence inside her.
  The female imp began to pour another cup for Stolas. The imp then glanced nervously out the window. A black stallion with a fiery mane and tail was galloping at full speed toward the window.
  “Up yours!” Stella barked at Stolas, flipping the bird at him.
  Andrealphus put a hand on his head. “Stellaaaa, for fucks sake, stop making this harder to bullshit!”
  The sound of breaking glass rang from behind Stolas. Stolas turned around with a worried glance. Other royals looked around to see where the commotion was coming from. Someone had leaped off the galloping horse and was posing on a table from behind a dark robe.
  With sharp fangs, a cowboy hat and hypnotic yellow glowing eyes, it was none other than the outlaw imp Striker. He stood up with a grin, twirling two black angelic pistols in his hands. They both had white glowing designs of a halo and angel wings on it. Striker had gained more angelic weapons, courtesy of Stella (and maybe a little bit of black-market stealing). He had a hint of a black mustache. The succubus and incubus seated at the table glanced up at Striker with nervous expressions. The imp criminal mastermind was wanted in Pride and Wrath alike.
  With a bang, Striker fired a white angelic bullet from the pistol right at Stolas’ face. Stolas morphed into his demon form and leapt out of the way as the bullet struck Stella’s cup. The bullet had also cracked the window. Stolas looked at Stella who turned toward him with a sinister grin. Another bullet made a smoky hole in his hat and another crack in the window. Four more holes appeared in the window as more bullets flew. Stolas flew out of the way as Striker leaped across the bar tables after him. Stella and Andrealphus smirked as Stolas ran off. He flew by a yellow royal lady carrying a pocket imp in her purse and staring at her cellphone. There were succubi, incubi, and a Sloth Ring demon in the corner. Stolas flew toward the exit doors as Stolas pulled out a glowing white lasso. Outside in an alleyway were wanted posters: “Wanted: Striker, Preferably Dead, Please.” With a yelp, Stolas fell to the ground as the blessed rope caught around his neck. “Oh dear, this is worrisome,” Stolas gulped in concern as his hat flew off his head. He was now bound with the white blessed rope.
  Striker’s glowing yellow eyes flashed as he strut out of the café with an evil grin. He stood over Stolas, gold fang glinting, black cowboy boot pressing into Stolas’ leg. In his belt was an angelic knife, sharp and reddish with glowing white light pulsing within it. “How in blazes did he get all those dangerous weapons?” Stolas thought.
  “Oh, how the mighty do fall, eh Stolas?”
  Stolas flashed his red eyes at Striker, intending to turn him into stone. Striker just chuckled. Stolas gasped in surprise.
  “Don’t bother trying your little eye trick on me,” Striker drawled. “Those ropes ain’t gonna let you do anything. Got something to say about that your…”
  Striker whipped Stolas hard in the face with his pointed spiked tail,
  “…highness?!”
  “Argh!” Stolas flinched. He managed to press the “call Blitzy” button on his cellphone with a finger before Striker smashed it to bits with his boot a few moments later. The owl struggled in vain as Striker lifted him up and placed him on the back of his horse, Bulletproof. With a western cackle, Striker leaped onto his horse and galloped away with his victim down the streets.
  0 0 0
  Blitzo yawned as he stared out the window from his small, cramped apartment. Loona was sleeping in her room, recovering from the vet’s shot. The familiar city sounds of gunshots, shouts, swears, and passing cars rang out in the distance. Blitzo thought he saw a blur of Stolas tied up on the back of a galloping fiery horse.
  “Stolas tied up to a horse? Lucky bitch,” Blitzo thought. “Even luckier if Striker was also a part of the hallucination.”
  Blitzo walked away from the window and made his way toward bed. Then after several moments, he froze with a strange feeling of dread. He rubbed his eyes and raced back toward the window. But, of course, the image was gone. There was no hint of Stolas ever being tied up by Striker on a horse.
  It would’ve been simple to dismiss it as part of his fatigued imagination…
  …if a lone owl feather and scorched hoof marks weren’t present on the street.
  Blitzo groaned in frustration. First, he nearly lost his limbs taking Loona to the vet. Now he was on yet another rescue mission. He knew what Stolas would say: “I’m your prince in distress, being carried away by a sexy cowboy. So, you should come and save me.”
  “Fuck my afterlife,” Blitzo muttered. He saw that there was a missed call from Stolas on his cellphone…the only sound on the other line was Stolas’ yelps and static as the line went dead. Blitzo seethed as he began to call Moxxie and Millie.
  Striker maneuvered his horse off-roads until spotting a portal in the dark. The horse raced so fast through it that only a glimpse of a fiery mane and tail could be seen. Soon enough, Striker was back home in the Wrath Ring.
  0 0 0
  Blitzo soon met up with Moxxie and Millie in front of I.M.P. headquarters. Blitzo led them into the I.M.P. van and Blitzo drove them down the road.
  “Stolas…kidnapped?” Moxxie exclaimed. “How could that have happened? Shouldn’t Stolas have guards around him?”
  “I also wondered why he couldn’t just escape since he’s powerful,” Blitzo said with a worried look. “But from what I got from my cellphone it sounded like Stolas is in real shit this time.”
  “Sir,” said Millie from the back seat. “Let me and Moxxie handle this one.”
  “Are you sure you two got this alone?” Blitzo asked.
  Moxxie grinned. “We can do it, sir. Together, we are a lethal combo.” Millie placed a reddish-pink cowboy hat onto Moxxie, who smiled.
  “Appreciate your enthusiasm, but I’m gonna make this a threesome and come with you,” Blitzo sighed. “Knowing Striker’s aesthetic, my money’s he’s in Wrath and still just as dangerous as he was at the Harvest Moon Festival. Probably still has a bunch of cowboy crap with him.”
  Millie thought for a moment. “Well, we could always use the extra backup.”
  Moxxie glanced around. “And we still need to follow those scorched hoof marks. It’s our only clue to finding Stolas.”
  Blitzo agreed. The imp trio followed the scorched horse hoof marks backward until they reached the Richest Café (“Where the poor pour for you!”). They parked the car and slowly got out, being careful not to draw too much attention. There was yellow caution tape over the broken window and the cracked window with the bullet holes. The remaining royals were standing outside the café, talking in hushed whispers. A few of them glanced at the imps with apathy and disdain. Moxxie soon came across the little female server imp wearing a tuxedo and purple bowtie.
  “Excuse me,” said Moxxie. “Do you work here?”
  “Yes,” squeaked the imp. “But the Café is closed until tomorrow.”
  “What happened here?” Millie asked.
  “Well, it was just an ordinary busy day,” said the imp with a sigh. “My first morning shift. My back and arms were sore from holding the teapot for the Goetia royals. One looked like a prince with red robes. There was a very loud woman arguing with him. And a third ice bird.”
  “Ice bird?” Blitzo raised his eyebrows. “How many pompous birdbrains are there?”
  The server imp continued. “I was just about to pour tea for the prince, when I saw a giant demonic stallion charging toward the windows! Next thing I knew, the glass breaks and this rogue cowboy imp starts firing bullets everywhere! Oh, it was scary.”
  “Where did the prince go?” Moxxie asked.
  “I don’t know,” replied the imp. “I was hiding under the table afterward, but I did see some movement in the alleyway. And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to get ready for my 12-hour workday tomorrow. Being poor fucking sucks!”
  The imp darted away before Blitzo could ask any more questions. Moxxie raced toward the alley. “Sir, you might want a look at this.”
  Blitzo and Millie followed.
  “Oh shit,” Blitzo breathed. There on the ground was Stolas’ missing top hat and broken cellphone. Blitzo picked up the hat.
  “He definitely was here,” Moxxie said. “I wonder what he was doing while drinking his tea?”
  “Well, we have no time to wonder about that,” said Blitzo. He mentioned for the group to climb back into the I.M.P. van. Blitzo called, “It’s best we go prepared. Millie, you have your weapons?”
  Millie grinned, “Yeah!” as she held up a black double-sided axe with the I.M.P. logo in the middle and then a two-handled Zwei-hander sword.
  Mox?” Blitzo asked.
  Moxxie grinned as he showed two pistols.
  “You guys have any angelic weapons?”
  Both shook their heads.
  “Just don’t let Striker hit you with any angelic weapons. Rumor has it, they hurt like double hell in comparison to other weapons. Now let’s move out to Wrath.”
  “We got this, boss!” Moxxie stated, with a proud fist. Millie nodded. They drove and followed the hoof marks through the portal to Wrath.

  The imps were soon in the Wrath Ring, driving by ranches, cacti, deserts, and red-rock mountains with lava spheres flowing above them. Several muscular imps were tending to many-eyed cattle or mining for precious gems in the shafts. They hauled gold, diamonds, and rubies into carts to sell to royals at markets. A few brave ones were sliding down the lava streams in open logs. Blitzo soon pulled up to a gas station on the side of the road. The wooden roof structure had white horn designs on the top and a few knives sticking out of the ends. A nearby wooden building read “Route 666,” also decorated with swords, spikes, and horns. A mariachi imp band sat on a bench where rifles lay on their sides. One wore a thick hat decorated with eyes on the brim. There was a broken vent on the building side and more Striker wanted posters. An old motel was across the way with two wagon wheels on a rock. The volcanic mountains were connected above by rickety wooden bridges.
  “Crumbs!” Moxxie exclaimed. “I’ll grab the gas, Millie. Go and see if anyone’s seen Striker anywhere.”
  Blitzo got out and stretched his legs, while Moxxie and Millie spread out. As Millie walked over to the imp band, three motorcycles revved to a stop as a biker gang parked their vehicles.
  “Hey, queer boy!” shouted the leader biker to Moxxie.
  Moxxie froze, eyes wide. The leader was tall, muscular, and red-skinned with a white beard and mustache. He wore a reddish cowboy hat and had thick horns sticking from his head. He was shirtless with a white scarf, black leather pants, white cowboy boots, and black incubus wings extending from his back. He was flanked by two imps with faces covered. One wore a red face scarf, brown cowboy hat and white shirt, the other had a dirty hat, a red and white shirt, and a thick white mustache.
  “You stealin’ my hat?” the leader asked, anger in his eyes.
  “What?” Moxxie asked.
  The biker’s eyes glowed yellow as he pointed to his hat. “Same hat.”
  Moxxie fidgeted with his hat nervously. “Oh sorry. My wife just put this hat on my head…you know, because it was…hot…outside…”
  The biker got into Moxxie’s face and growled. “Same. Hat.”
  Moxxie glanced around at the gang and sighed. “So, we’re doing this, huh?”
  “Howdy, boys!” Millie called to the imp band. “Y’all seen this motherfucker riding around here?” She held up a drawing labeled “Striker” which showed a shirtless Striker firing his gun.
  In the background, Blitzo and Moxxie were seen fighting the biker gang. Moxxie jumped onto the biker with the white shirt and stabbed him repeatedly in the waist with a dagger. Moxxie jumped out of the way as the biker leader accidentally punched his comrade while charging after Moxxie. Blitzo swiped at the other guy with a knife, pulling the cowboy hat over his head. Before the biker could fully turn around and see, Blitzo shot him dead.
  “Yeah,” one of the imps said. “He lives out by the Bad Man Lands, in the old train tunnel near the mine shafts. Very outlaw aesthetic, ya can’t miss it.”
  “Thank you, kindly,” Millie smiled.
  “Now for a song!” the four imps said with grins.
  “NO! NO! No singing, please!” Millie protested to no avail. She rolled her eyes and left to join her crew. The band played their instruments and sang as Blitzo and Moxxie and Millie fought the biker gang:
  “He’s galloping over the dusty plains
Even the cacti know his name
If you don’t want to die, don’t cross his path
The best assassin in the Ring of Wrath
  He’s Striker! He’s Striker!
Sure shootin’, darn tootin’, his name is Striker
  Gonna bring the bird back to his lair
With his magic rope and western flair
He’s very good at causing pain
He loves to ride on the choo-choo train!
  Dirty-dealin’, prince-stealin’
He’s a villain, Striker!
  He’s fast and strong and tall and mean
The foulest imp you’ve ever seen!
He’ll break your bones to hear em’ crunch!
He likes to eat Paté for lunch!
  He’s Striker! Ye-yeah! Ye-yeah!”
  While Blitzo and Millie fought the other biker, Moxxie rode on top of the biker leader and smashed his face repeatedly against the glass part of the wooden door. With a swipe of his credit card, Moxxie paid for the gas and smashed the biker’s head through the van’s glass window. He dodged the biker’s next punch and proceeded to wrap the nozzle cord tightly around the biker’s neck. The biker struggled and strained as Moxxie then causally put the nozzle into the van’s tank and stared at his cellphone as he waited.
  Millie brushed herself off, then glanced in the distance and spotted a figure galloping across the bridges and into the volcanic tunnels.
  She ran off and called, “Come on, Mox! We got a lead!”
  Blitzo finished off the other biker with another shot to the face and raced over to the van. Blitzo took the wheel as Millie and Moxxie took their places in the back. Blitzo sped forward down the road. With a “yee-haw!” the nozzle flew out of the tank, taking the biker’s head off. The gas machine detached from the ground and soon exploded. The top of the roof structure landed on the ground off to the side.

    The dust cleared deep within the mine shafts. Stolas coughed and looked around. Striker was off to the side sharpening his angelic knife with a rock.
  Stolas lowered his head…and flicked it back up with a yelp. He was tied to train tracks with the blessed rope…and his black head of hair had almost touched the stream of orange lava below. He was suspended a few feet up.
  “Careful,” Striker chuckled. “Move down too far and you’ll fall right in.”
  “So, my wife paid you for this, huh?” Stolas asked. “Wouldn’t a holy bullet have sufficed? Or could you not afford those?”
  Striker smirked, waving his knife in the air. “I was paid to give you the real royal treatment. Your wife must really hate you.” He laughed.
  “You have no idea,” said Stolas.
  Around Striker’s hideout were strings of lights, barrels, and a small black caldron over a wood pile. A train car had been overturned to the side. There were neon signs that read “KILL COUNT CASINO,” with a black cowboy skull and arrows pointing down toward Stolas, a “KILLER VENOM,” sign with a blue beer bottle inside a blue snake’s mouth, a “KILLER BEER,” logo, “NEW BLOOD,” and up on top near an orange light figure of Striker’s horse: “STRIKER’S SALOON.” Striker had a small bed with a string of lights over it, a neon purple cactus and bull horns on the wall. By a green neon cactus was a statue of Striker, posing with a wheat stalk in his mouth and a large dick. There was also a radio on the ground by Striker’s boots.
  Stolas stared at the statue. “Is the giant statue of yourself a classic?”
  “Only the best,” Striker grinned.
  “I didn’t know you wanted to suck your own dick so badly,” Stolas remarked.
  Striker scowled. “Are you seriously judging me right now?”
  Stolas shrugged. “I’m just saying that Blitzy’s dick is a much more enjoyable sight.”
  “Shut it!” Striker spat. He took a metal pan and splashed some lava near Stolas’ face. He closed his eyes and flinched in pain. “All you royals ever do is talk over us imps. And then you fuckers think that the entire world’s yours, so you take away everything we care about.”
  “But I didn’t take anything from…”
  Stolas screamed as Striker dug his dagger deep into his feathery neck. Black blood spilled out of the owl’s neck. To further intimate Stolas, Striker licked the blood off the knife.
  “Say one more word,” Striker held the knife to Stolas’ neck, “and you won’t be worth more than the tombstone you’ll be buried under. You’ll choke on your own blue blood.”
  Stolas let out a forced laugh. “Blitzy says far dirtier things to me…”
  Striker dug the knife in…
  “And…his knife digs sooo much deeper into me…”
  Striker seethed and stepped back. “Being a smartass, huh? Well guess what? You’re the one hanging over the lava.”
  Stolas breathed heavily. “Well, you seem to be forgetting…you’re the one working for a royal…right…now!”
  Striker seethed again. “If it means getting the chance to kill you and gaining some money, then I’ll take the risk of being a temporary underling.”
  “You won’t kill me,” Stolas began. “Blitzy will…”
  “That rodeo clown ain’t comin’ to save you. You won’t see him again…”
  Striker pondered and smirked. “…and neither will you see your kid again. What a shame…”
  Stolas’ eyes flared. “Don’t you dare breathe a word about my daughter…”
  Striker got close to his face. “Ooooh, finally hit a nerve, huh?”
  “I swear, if you hurt Via, I will destroy you…”
  Striker cackled and moved his knife toward Stolas’ eyes. “Not if I have your red eyes as a trophy. Can’t have you seeing me again, can we…?”
  Just then, Striker’s burner phone rang. “Yellow?” he said, answering it. A horseshoe keychain hung from the phone.
  “Change of plans, darling, I need the prick alive,” came Stella’s voice.
  “I’m kinda in the middle of killing him,” Striker scoffed.
  “Well stop it, we need him alive to get some affairs in order. I will pay you more to spare him and bring him to us.” Striker covered Stolas’ mouth with his tail.
  Striker’s eyes narrowed. “Who else do you mean when you say ‘us?’”
  “Not your concern, imp! Just do as I say.”
  “Well…I’ll still get paid if I do kill him, right?”
  “You will not…”
  Striker’s eyes became bizarrely defiant, glowing in a mix of rage and maniacal glee. “You really think I’ll say ‘yes, ma’am,’ after you won’t tell me about the details on your end? After all the troubles I went through? You forget I follow my own orders first. Now say goodbye to your dick-devoted husband, (censored “cunt.”)
  “MOTHERFUC…!” Stella began before Striker hung up. In anger, Striker tossed the burner phone aside and it shattered into pieces. Stolas gasped in bewilderment.
  “I don’t need to take any more orders! I don’t even need your eyes!” Striker roared. He dug the knife close to Stolas’ heart and then hovered the knife over the white ropes bounding Stolas to the train tracks.
“Into the lava you go!”
  Just then, a cheerful car horn blared from above. Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-dadadada! Striker looked up as the ceiling caved in with a crash. The I.M.P. van dive-bombed through the cavern ceiling, this time with Moxxie driving. Blitzo spotted Stolas about to fall into the lava. Thankfully he had brought cowboy rope with him. He swung the rope, and it wrapped on a metal railing part of the train tracks near Stolas. As the van plummeted down a rocky hill, Blitzo swung forward from the rope and grabbed hold of Stolas just before he could fall into the lava. Striker dove out of the way as Blitzo and Stolas crashed in a heap on the ground, with Stolas underneath Blitzo. The owl blushed at the unexpected sight of his savior. “Oh Blitzy…”
  Striker stood up as the van rolled sideways down the hill, then straightened itself. Moxxie already had his rifle trained on the cowboy. Striker darted out of range before twirling his knife in response. With a well-aimed throw, the knife dug into Moxxie’s rifle, jamming it. Millie raced behind some rocks. Moxxie fired a stray bullet which bounced off Striker’s statue dick, off the casino sign and into a radio.
  A western Wrath Ring version of “Whatcha Thinkin’ About?” played on the radio. Striker bopped his head with a grin and tapped his foot as the battle began. Striker twirled his angelic pistols and fired at Blitzo, who was trying to free Stolas. Blitzo moved out of the way and joined with Moxxie. Millie wielded her double-handled sword and leaped over Striker’s head. She swung it and Striker ducked. Striker dodged Millie’s swings and kicked Millie backward. She landed near Stolas on her back. Millie barely managed to flip out of the way when Striker used his strong tail to stab the spot where she was at with the sword. A brief pushing of swords ensued before Striker flinched from Moxxie’s bullets. Taking advantage of Blitzo’s weak arm, Striker fired a bullet at it and sent Blitzo down. He yelped in pain.
  Meanwhile Moxxie and Millie flipped in the air and dove around as Striker fired a series of rounds at them. Millie tossed a piece of rock at Striker. It missed and instead landed in the radio.
  A bubblegum pop Sloth Ring version of “Whatcha Thinkin’ About?” replaced the country song. Striker raised his eyebrows and snarled in disgust before continuing the fight.
  Moxxie raced and tossed the double-sided black I.M.P. axe to Millie, who caught it in midair. Striker fired both pistols at the same time as Moxxie and Millie jumped in for the attack. Millie used her axe to shield them from Striker’s bullets. Moxxie fired one of his pistols and Striker avoided it. With a scream and swing of her axe, Millie sliced Striker’s angelic pistols apart, sending him to the ground. He seethed at the broken weapons in his hands and the white wax pouring from them. He tossed them aside and narrowly avoided getting his tail chopped off by Millie’s axe. With a grin, Striker lassoed a piece of rock to his cowboy rope and rammed it straight into Millie. Millie yelled as she was forced forward. She dug her axe in the ground to steady herself. Striker swung the rock at Moxxie who narrowly dodged it. Striker swung himself several times with his cowboy rope and lassoed a sharp stalactite from the ceiling. He jumped out of the way as the pointed rock came crashing down, knocking the imps off their feet.
  Millie flew into a rock near the radio as Striker kicked Moxxie down. She barely had time to blink before Striker tossed her axe at her, narrowly missing her neck. Striker snapped his fingers as if to say “darn, I missed.” Before Moxxie could reach his pistols, Striker lassoed a rock at Moxxie and crashed it onto his head. Millie gasped. Striker walked over to Moxxie and began to strangle him.
  “Oh, I remember how easy you are to choke the life out of, little one.”
  Trying a new Stolas approach, Moxxie weakly grinned and moaned “Harder.” Striker reeled back in disgust and Moxxie proceeded to trip Striker, swiping at his legs. Moxxie then used the lasso to wrap around Striker’s neck, twirling him around and screaming “YOU COWBOY PIECE OF SHIT!” Striker growled after he was freed and brandished an extra pistol. Millie wacked her axe into the rock supporting the Striker statue. Striker saw the statue begin to fall and leaped out of the way before it crashed.
  Completely distracted, Striker did not see Blitzo weakly use his other arm to fire a bullet into Striker’s stomach. Striker seethed in pain and turned to attack Blitzo, but this time, Millie and Moxxie stood with Blitzo, also surrounding Stolas.
  “Blitzo, this is your last chance to join me against the royals. We could have the freedom to do what we please if you let me kill that bastard prince,” said Striker.
  “Fuck off,” was Blitzo’s reply.
  Outnumbered, Striker retreated into the dark, tail rattling in anger.
  “Oh crumbs!” cried Moxxie, staring down at the unresponsive Stolas. “We have to get him to a hospital!”
  0 0 0
The three imps carried him back to the van, where they drove through a portal to the Sloth Ring hospital. After they arrived, doctors in plague masks carried Stolas on a stretcher and rushed him inside. Several nurses with candles on their heads carried first-aid kits and followed the doctors. A 666 Imperial News station was outside the hospital where a pink tall demon woman reported Stolas’ condition. Another horned demon lady with pink fire on her head, posed for pictures. Many reporters stood outside the double doors, snapping pictures and chatting.
  “Ready to go home, Blitzo?” asked Millie. Blitzo stared at the black top hat in the back seat. “Give me a sec,” he replied.
  Inside the hospital room, a monitor showed Stolas’ heart rhythm with beeps. An IV bag with black blood was connected to Stolas. Stolas lay down on the bed, the pillow dotted with sleeping-eye designs. The windows were tinted pink.
  Stolas was surrounded by red flowers with eye designs in the middle. Several rose petals fell off a flower onto a bed-side table. One of his arms was in a cast. Stolas then smiled as he saw a familiar face.
  “Via?”
  “Oh dad!” His daughter’s eyes brimmed with tears. “What happened? I got here as soon as I could.” Octavia finished placing the last of the flowers near Stolas’ bed.
  “You gave me the flowers?”
  “You were growing them already,” she replied.
  “You didn’t have to…”
  “Why wouldn’t I come over to see you? At the very least, visiting you gives me something to do.”
  “Thank you,” Stolas smiled softly.
  “Oh,” Via said. “Here.” She handed him a new cellphone. “I found the broken pieces by the café. Please be careful next time.”
  “I love you, Via. Please stay safe.”
  After talking for a few more moments, Octavia left.
  Stolas looked at the notification on his new phone; he had one message from Blitzo.
  He scrolled through all the phone texts.
  Stolas: I’M SORRY IF ANYTHING I SAID OR DID MAY HAVE OFFENDED YOU TONIGHT.
Blitzo: ITZ WUTEVS
Stolas: NEXT TIME YOU COME OVER, MAYBE WE CAN TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AT OZZIE’S?
Blitzo: Y?
Stolas: I’M SORRY! NEVERMIND, IT’S NOT A BIG DEAL. I WAS JUST WORRIED ABOUT YOU. YOU SEEMED VERY UPSET AND YOU TOOK OFF SO FAST. BUT MAYBE I READ TOO MUCH INTO THAT, I’M GLAD IF THAT’S NOT THE CASE. I WASN’T UPSET EITHER, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU WEREN’T AND OBVIOUSLY YOU CAN HANDLE ANY STUPID JOKE A CLOWN CAN MAKE. ASMODEUS CAN BE VERY INVASIVE IN HIS HUMOR, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS PRETTY FUNNY MYSELF. WHAT HE SAID ABOUT ME AT LEAST, I ENJOY BEING THE SUBJECT OF JEST. MAYBE YOU CAN SAY MEAN THINGS TO ME TOO NEXT TIME YOU COME OVER.
IF YOU WANT?
Blitzo: SHUR
  Stolas: THANKS FOR HELPING ME WITH VIA TODAY, YOU WERE GREAT IN THAT HUMAN SHOW.
Blitzo: NP
Stolas: ARE YOU COMING OVER TONIGHT WITH THE BOOK?
Blitzo: LYKE OLWAYS
Stolas: IF YOU DON’T FEEL LIKE COMING, THAT’S OK! I’M SURE I CAN DO WITHOUT IT FOR ONE MONTH. :)
Blitzo: K
  Stolas: DO YOU PLAN TO VISIT TOMORROW? I KNOW YOU’VE BEEN BUSY AND WORKING HARD. MAYBE IF YOU’D PREFER, WE CAN SKIP THE BEDROOM AND JUST RELAX, MAYBE? I’M SURE YOU NEED A BREAK.
Blitzo: WUTEVR YOU WANT, ITS UR NIGHT
Stolas: IF YOU’RE NOT UP FOR IT, OR TOO TIRED, THAT’S PERFECTLY FINE. NO PRESSURE, I DON’T HAVE ANYTHING WITH THE GRIMOIRE TILL NEXT MONTH.
Blitzo: MAE BEE
  Stolas: MAYBE INSTEAD OF OUR USUAL ARRANGEMENT ON THE FULL MOON WE COULD PROPERLY CATCH UP THIS WEEK? MAYBE MONDAY?
Blitzo: I MITE B BSUY
Stolas: I WOULDN’T WANT TO BOTHER YOU!
YOU CAN ALWAYS DROP OFF THE BOOK ON THE FULL MOON AND I CAN LEAVE IT FOR YOU IF YOU ARE TOO TIRED TO DO ANYTHING…
BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU.
Blitzo: K
  Blitzo: GIT BEVVER SWOON :(
  Stolas typed and left a message.
  Stolas: THANK YOU, BLITZ, THAT MEANS A LOT. I MIGHT BE HERE FOR A WHILE, IF YOU EVER WANT TO VISIT. (purple heart emoji)
  The phone showed “Blitzy is typing…” but nothing showed up. Stolas sighed sadly and placed his phone on the bedside table. Another rose petal fell off a sad-looking flower. As Stolas drifted off to sleep, he didn’t notice his top hat being placed near his phone by a familiar imp. Or said familiar imp gently holding his hand. Or the familiar imp who sat and worried about Stolas and Loona and his I.M.P. business. By the time Stolas opened his eyes again…his imp savior had vanished from the room.

  Off in the northern unknown regions of Hell stood a giant gleaming ice palace. It had an ice walkway and a teal diamond over the door entrance. It had the appearance of a frozen three-layer cake and the roof was decorated with giant pointed snowflake designs. Andrealphus, master of ice and geometry had built his home all by himself. The dark red sky swirled with snow and ice spikes jagged the ground in all directions. Despite Andrealphus being unaffected by the cold, he often longed for the more traditional cushiony comforts held in Stolas’ palace.
  “I have done all my duties to the letter,” Andrealphus thought. “King Paimon would be proud of me already if only I were a prince.”
  Andrealphus and Stella sat at a dining room table made of ice and decorated with teal diamonds. The marquis moved two sugar cubes in his hand with blue magic, dropped them in his tea and stirred it with a spoon. The rectangular windows overlooking the red sky were frosted. Stella stared at the ice rotary phone she had used to call Striker.
  “Andrealphus, why did you make my assassin call off the attack?”
  “My fiery vixen,” Andrealphus mused. “You were the one who called him, not me.” He smirked. “You hired him to kill your husband, didn’t you?”
  “Guilty,” Stella laughed, sipping her tea. “Yesss it wasss me!”
  “You are a silly minx,” Andrealphus laughed. “Though you know, if your husband dies, it won’t turn out well for you.”
  Stella scoffed. “I still don’t you why you wanted me to stop the imp from doing his job. I don’t really care what happens as long as Stolas is dead.”
  “You haven’t been listening to me,” her brother sighed. “It’s not the best course of action.”
  “He’ll be dead! Why wouldn’t it be?”
  “Because, my dear sister, you’ve already produced an heir. When Stolas dies, all of his possessions, his legions will pass onto…”
  Andrealphus seethed, “…your daughter Via instead. She’s next in line, after all.”
  Stella giggled. “You’re joking.”
  “No I’m not, you stupid cow! You’ll get nothing! You’re lucky you’re so attractive to get this far.” He briefly placed his white fingers onto Stella’s black ones.
  “Well, what do you suppose we do?”
  “You already called off your mangy stray,” Andrealphus said.
  “Yeah, that went well,” Stella muttered. “But I want Stolas dead so badly! He won’t leave me anything willingly. He hates me almost as much as I hate him.”
  “Well, this situation is extremely unique. A Goetia has never behaved like this before.” He stood up and got close to Stella. “Think of it like this, with Stolas alive, we have actions, opportunities…”
  Andrealphus was already formulating some ideas. If Via were to die in a ‘tragic accident,’ then the legacies would stay with Stolas. And then with Stolas out of the way…
  Yes, it would be a complex, risky endeavor. Andrealphus would get what he was looking for. He would be the ideal next candidate with no Stolas there. And Stella would happily follow him around if provided with luxury and comforts. But would it work?
  “Eternity is a long time, my dear,” he told Stella, stroking under her chin. “I say we bide our time and wait for the chance to gain the upper hand.”  
  “Fine,” Stella scoffed. They both sipped their hot tea quietly as the snow swirled outside.

Advice To Make Dealing With Beauty Simple
Welcome to the world of beauty! It is a very big world, complete with all kinds of tools, accessories, and so much more. The fact that beauty is a very personal thing, can make it seem a bit impossible to find what will work for you. The tips below can help give you some suggestions. Wear moisturizers or highlighters that have gold or pink undertones if you want to rejuvenate dull skin. Apply the highlighter with a makeup sponge, dabbing it on your brows and fleshy part of your cheeks for a dewy look. Be careful not to over apply the product, as this will make your face look unnaturally shiny. Before putting on your favorite sandals for the summer season, take the time to moisturize your feet using Vaseline. Before bed, slather your feet with a thick layer of Vaseline and cover them with an old pair of socks. As beauty supply stores open near me sleep, the Vaseline will penetrate thick, calloused skin, helping to eliminate cracks and dryness. The next morning when you remove the socks, your feet will be soft and supple so you can wear your favorite sandals with pride. If you have very narrow eyes, you can create the illusion that they are more widely opened by first using an eyelash curler to curl your top lashes. Apply a dark brown mascara to the middle lashes, then tilt the wand diagonally and apply the mascara to the outer lashes. Use a misting spray to set makeup. After you are finished fully making up your face, lightly mist yourself with a sprayer. This will set your makeup, keeping it in place longer before requiring you to touch it up. This is perfect for long nights out or events such as weddings. Using a fake tanning lotion can make your skin appear more beautiful without getting any of the harmful rays from sunbathing or tanning. Make sure to shave or wax any hair that you don't want on your body before applying any type of tanning lotion at least 24 hours ahead of time. Eye puffiness is easily attended to by placing a piece of thinly sliced potato over the puffy area of your eyes. You should let it sit for at least ten minutes. Besides potato slices, a teaspoon that has chilled in the freezer for a while, slices of cucumber and teabags also do the trick. This eliminates the puffy look and helps you looked more alert and revived in no time. For those days when you have skimped on sleep the previous night and it shows in your eyes, skip lining or applying mascara to your lower lash line. Put the focus on your lids and upper lashes, and you are less likely to accentuate dark circles, making you look even more tired. It is imperative that you work at having good posture, clothes, skin and stay fit when trying to enhance your appearance. Improving each of these things will assist you in improving both your inward and outward beauty. You've heard it's important to exfoliate, but you don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive loofah bath mitts or scrubs. Any drugstore, grocery store, or dollar store sells inexpensive kitchen sponge/scrubbers (where the rough side is green and the sponge side is yellow). These sponges work great for body exfoliation - but please don't use the green side on your face. Beauty is in the details, so you may have to spend a little bit of time on the small things that are often overlooked. This could mean using a good exfoliant in the shower or learning the correct way to shave your face or your legs. These small things add up to a much better you. To keep from getting eye bags, drink plenty of water before you go to bed. One of the leading causes of eyebags is dehydration during the night. If you still have eyebags when you wake up, rest cold, caffeinated teabags on your eyes for about 10 minutes. This will nourish your eyes and make the bags disappear. In the world of beauty, there are many techniques that you have at your disposal to better your appearance. The world of beauty has a little something for everyone, but what works for one person may not for another. Hopefully, these tips have given you a starting point for your own beauty regimen.

Both body types will typically feature arms and legs shorter than usual, so anybody sporting those could fall on either side of the fence.

Advice To Make Dealing With Beauty Simple
Welcome to the world of beauty! It is a very big world, complete with all kinds of tools, accessories, and so much more. The fact that beauty is a very personal thing, can make it seem a bit impossible to find what will work for you. The tips below can help give you some suggestions. Wear moisturizers or highlighters that have gold or pink undertones if you want to rejuvenate dull skin. Apply the highlighter with a makeup sponge, dabbing it on your brows and fleshy part of your cheeks for a dewy look. Be careful not to over apply the product, as this will make your face look unnaturally shiny. Before putting on your favorite sandals for the summer season, take the time to moisturize your feet using Vaseline. Before bed, slather your feet with a thick layer of Vaseline and cover them with an old pair of socks. As you sleep, the Vaseline will penetrate thick, calloused skin, helping to eliminate cracks and dryness. The next morning when you remove the socks, your feet will be soft and supple so you can wear your favorite sandals with pride. If you have very narrow eyes, you can create the illusion that they are more widely opened by first using an eyelash curler to curl your top lashes. Apply a dark brown mascara to the middle lashes, then tilt the wand diagonally and apply the mascara to the outer lashes. Use a misting spray to set makeup. After you are finished fully making up your face, lightly mist yourself with a sprayer. This will set your makeup, keeping it in place longer before requiring you to touch it up. This is perfect for long nights out or events such as weddings. Using a fake tanning lotion can make your skin appear more beautiful without getting any of the harmful rays from sunbathing or tanning. Make sure to shave or wax any hair that you don't want on your body before applying any type of tanning lotion at least 24 hours ahead of time. Eye puffiness is easily attended to by placing a piece of thinly sliced potato over the puffy area of your eyes. You should let it sit for at least ten minutes. Besides potato slices, a teaspoon that has chilled in the freezer for a while, slices of cucumber and teabags also do the trick. This eliminates the puffy look and helps you looked more alert and revived in no time. For those days when you have skimped on sleep the previous night and it shows in your eyes, skip lining or applying mascara to your lower lash line. Put the focus on your lids and upper lashes, and you are less likely to accentuate dark circles, making you look even more tired. It is imperative that you work at having good posture, clothes, skin and stay fit when trying to enhance your appearance. Improving each of these things will assist you in improving both your inward and outward beauty. You've heard it's important to exfoliate, but you don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive loofah bath mitts or scrubs. Any drugstore, grocery store, or dollar store sells inexpensive kitchen sponge/scrubbers (where the rough side is green and the sponge side is yellow). These sponges work great for body exfoliation - but please don't use the green side on your face. Beauty is in the details, so you may have to spend a little bit of time on the small things that are often overlooked. This could mean using a good exfoliant in the shower or learning the correct way to shave your face or your legs. These small things add up to a much better you. To keep from getting eye bags, drink plenty of water before you go to bed. One of the leading causes of eyebags is dehydration during the night. If you still have eyebags when you wake up, rest cold, caffeinated teabags on your eyes for about 10 minutes. This will nourish your eyes and make the bags disappear. In the world of beauty, there are many techniques that you have at your disposal to better your appearance. The world of beauty has a little something for everyone, but what works for one person may not for another. Hopefully, Med Spa Bloomfield Hills have given you a starting point for your own beauty regimen.

Put the focus on your lids and upper lashes, and you are less likely to accentuate dark circles, making you look even more tired. It is imperative that you work at having good posture, clothes, skin and stay fit when trying to enhance your appearance. Improving each of these things will assist you in improving both your inward and outward beauty. You've heard it's important to exfoliate, but you don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive loofah bath mitts or scrubs. Any drugstore, grocery store, or dollar store sells inexpensive kitchen sponge/scrubbers (where the rough side is green and the sponge side is yellow). These sponges work great for body exfoliation - but please don't use the green side on your face. Beauty is in the details, so you may have to spend a little bit of time on the small things that are often overlooked. This could mean using a good exfoliant in the shower or learning the correct way to shave your face or your legs. These small things add up to a much better you. To keep from getting eye bags, drink plenty of water before you go to bed. One of the leading causes of eyebags is dehydration during the night. If you still have eyebags when you wake up, rest cold, caffeinated teabags on your eyes for about 10 minutes. This will nourish your eyes and make the bags disappear. In the world of beauty, there are many techniques that you have at your disposal to better your appearance. The world of beauty has a little something for everyone, but what works for one person may not for another. Hopefully, these tips have given you a starting point for your own beauty regimen.
