Beuty... These days this word has the multiple facets of a diamond. It means fashion magazines, models and TV stars. It calls the many products and services arisen around it from cosmetics to the latest fashions, to the saloon experts and lady's shapes. Each and every woman would like to be like this or that actress.
Among the favorites is Lynda Carter, the beautiful Wonder Woman, who has a beauty between romantic and classic. The perfect oval of her face in which her deep blue-green eyes stand out, her little nose and a fleshy mouth which framed by a curly mahogany hair that emphasizes her skin complexion. Anyone could think that a face like that should need no make-up, nor such a splendid body need too much care to be emphasized, nevertheless the actress has her little beauty secrets and reveals them to us.
THE FACE: A MIRROR WITH TOW IMAGES
"For everybody else" -says Lynda, "our face is something very much alive, ever changing, according to our reactions. For ourselves, by the other hand, is a still mask that stares at us from the mirror. Cleasing the face is important for skin types. Lightening it up first with warm water them with cold water, is part of any cleasing routine. First you have to use cleasing lotions to take the make up out, and after leaving it on face for a few minutes we take it out. The vapor skin treatment is such an effective way to remove it completely. Tobacco and alcohol are harmful for the epidermis, contributing to the aging by means of drying off the the natural fats. You shouldn't forget about that."
THE CHARMING ART OF MAKEUP
"Makeup as a bse or foundation is esential for the rest of teh makeup. The type and color should be strictly related to your type of skin. A medical based makeup could at the same time treat the sking and cover imperfections. I use a makeup that combines moisturizers which is a true blessing for dry skins or women like me which are for hours under the heat of the spotlights and should have her face all made-up for hours. Blushes are an easy way to highlight the skin but you shouldn't abuse of them. I prefer a fresh and natural makeup, pearly and strong pink lipstick, outlined first with a brush and then with a pencil. A brush it's ideal to enmark the lips the way you want. I apply a shadow in eyes softly, with shading of green and brown and outline them in a shade of brown, which is the same one I use in my lashes. Feeling yourself beauty puts in a very good mood. If you're not pretty at least to have to try to look pretty."
HAIR: SIMPLYNESS AND FANTASY
"Hair has always had different meaning: sexual, social and symbolic. For a woman heair if one of the most powerful weapons in her beauty arsenal. A moderate brushing is always good, it eliminates dust and dirty you get from the air and helps to estimulate the scalp. A good shampoo according to each hair type is essential and helps to keep the hair healthy. I have a natural curly hair but I use curlers anyway to keep always fixed and I have been looking for the ideal hairdo according to my face and that one that highlights it. Sometimes I let myself go into some fantasy but I do prefer it simple."
SHAPE, DRESSES AND PERSONALITY "Fortunately I have no problems with my shape...at least until now. I only do some swimming and footing. I have a light breakfast, something light in the afternoon and roasted chickens and vegetables by the night. When it comes to clothing I like robes that emphasize my shape or casul dressing: shirts and jeans. What is most important it's to maintain our own personality and not to try to imitate teh other which could make us look ridiculous. That's enough to be a Wonder Woman."
