Compared to the life eight years ago, is the life of middle-class of America better? Of course, the answer is no. it is not the financial crisis in 2008 hit the cosy life of the middle-class. In fact, from an unknown time, the life has been worse. The growth of income can not come up with the living cost. For example, Petrol, food, health care, childcare and education costs are all increasing, their retirement saving becomes less, and their future life are more dark. At the same time, the housing market is reduced into the recession, which makes people who originally wish to make money by real estate appreciation afraid of their life. We should face the situation bravely that the income of middle class has been marking time for several times, in spite of the current economic down and the rising commodity prices. What’s more, we should have a comprehensive understanding of the current middle class in America.
The rich people are likely to be wealthier while the comparatively poor ones can not make it. Till now, the most well-off families account for one percent of the total number of the American families, which is the highest since 1929. In the Pennsylvania Democratic presidential competition between Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton, both of them kept repeating the same theme: vote for me, I will make for the middle class once again a better life. From this, we can see that the important status of middle class in American politic.
In some aspects, the middle class have a better life than that eight years ago. Thanks to President Bush’s tax cuts, their taxes are reduced. To some extent, they have more money for consumption. Therefore, there are many goods or stores which are aimed to earn money from the middle class. For example, most people from the middle class may buy their glasses from a secondary expensive shop, such the visionking.com where the glasses of famous brand and high quality are sold.
However, some of the middle class throughout the United States lead a more tough life. A survey shows: 41 percent of respondents said their lives better than 5 years ago, 31 percent of respondents said than 5 years ago. And in these years, the income of different occupational groups also changed. There is a substantial increase in the income of athletes, bankers, or rock stars, while inflation-adjusted minimum wage levels are declining. The middle class are confronted with the heavy stress of employment and unemployment. From this, we can see the declining status of middle class in America.
Walking in the street, we can pick out the middle class from the crowd by the stores they shop, and the goods they buy.

First of all, we must be fully aware of that fact that it is very important to protect your skin before 18 years old. Melanoma of the adults is due to the exposure to the sun in their childhood. A six-month old baby cannot go beach bathing. Children before 7 years old should wear T-shirt and caps. They also should spread some sun cream which is intended for children on their faces. Go out as less as possible between 12 and 2 o’clock in the summer afternoon. Children should also wear sunglasses to protect their eyes from the intensive sun shine.
The limitation for the time people can expose to the sun is altogether 5000 hours. The time includes not only the time of exposure in summer but also the time you contact with the shine every day. Therefore, when 5000 hours are used up, the possibility that we will suffer from cancer of the skin will be higher. So don’t forget to protect your skin even in winter.
The sun umbrella is not your protector. Fifty percent of the ultraviolet radiation will go through the umbrella. What it blocks is UVA. What is called UVB can easily reach your skin. If you wear sun cream, do not forget smear some again after some time, no matter it is SPF 15 or SPF 30. Don’t regard that the time the cream with SPF 30 protects your skin is twice of that with SPF 15. If the cream with SPF 15 can block 94 percent of the ultraviolet radiation, the SPF 30 cream can only block 97 percent. And the higher the SPF, the heavier the burden it will give to your skin. We should choose different creams in different situations.
I hope these tips will benefit you a lot. Put up your cap, sunglasses and sun cream and enjoy your summer.

Do you still remember the elegant lady graced with her beauty and appeal back in 1950s? She is forever Audrey Hepburn. Even to date, there have been only a couple of celebrities that come close to this goddess when it comes to class and sophistication in hair and makeup.
Here come the secrets of how to create an Audrey Hepburn eyes with makeup. The first step is to create a particular look of the eyebrows. It’s important to ensure that they are not trimmed to the point in which the thickness is lost. However, it is necessary to trim them up in the center area. This is also referred to as the “arch” in many situations, and you should pay equal attention to taper them off on the corners, or the “ends”.
Next is to do a little bit magic to your eyelids. Apply a liquid base foundation to the lids and it is essential that this foundation matches your natural skin tone. Then you will want to gather a foundation powder that evenly matches the liquid foundation that you used and apply it to the eyelids.
Now it’s time to apply the eye shadow. Most who try to go for this particular look use products that are matte based and sable in color. When applying the eye shadow, it is absolutely vital to ensure that it is applied from the base of the eye to the top socket. It is a good idea to take just a dab of the eye shadow and apply it to the under part of the eye. This trick will create the natural illusion that your eyes are larger; of course, this is one thing that really stood out when it comes to the appearance of Audrey Hepburn. Now you need to use based eyeliner. Apply to both the bottom and top side of the eyelashes. When you get to the outer area of the eyes, simply sweep the liner in an upwards direction. This will ensure that you optimize the appearance of the eyes. However once completed, make sure that you blend the lines so that it doesn’t appear harsh. Then, simply apply a thick like mascara to the eyelashes. When doing so, sort of move back and forth to ensure that the lashes appear to be thick.
I am sure you have couldn’t wait to try this glamorous makeup. So, try your best. And remember to tell me if you succeed.

One of the best ways to create a beautifully made up face is to learn the ins and outs of eyeshadow tips. Your eyes are the first thing most people notice about your face, so knowing how to apply your eyeshadow correctly is the key to showing them off.
Eyeshadows come in a huge variety of colors and are available in creams, powders and pencils. Although your options may seem overwhelming at first, you can use your eyeshadow to accentuate the positive and camouflage the negative.
Cream or Powder?
Eyeshadow is available in either creams or powders. Creams are nice because you can usually apply them in one stroke, but powder eyeshadows last longer and tend to provide a sheer cover. If you like a cream eyeshadow, you can apply a matching powder on top of the cream to increase its staying power. For many women, the ultimate eyeshadows are the cream-to-powder shadows that go on as a cream and dry to a powder, giving you the best of both worlds. Ultimately, the choice between cream and powder is a matter of preference. Try both and see which one works better for your skin type.
You may want to try using an eyeshadow primer before applying shadow. A primer provides a smooth base that will allow easier application of the shadow and keep the shadow on longer. You can use a translucent powder as a primer to avoid having to purchase a separate product
Choosing Colors for Your Skin Tone and Eye Color
When it comes to color choices for eyeshadow, the number-one rule is to test different colors and wear what you like best. However, there are some general guidelines as to which colors work best for certain skin tones and eye colors.
Fair skin: You can wear most eyeshadow colors, but keep them in the lighter shades, especially for daytime wear. If your hair is dark, you can go with slightly darker eyeshadow colors. Medium plums, purples, lavenders, greens or blues all work, but line your eyes with the same color as your shadow.
Olive-toned skin: Colors in the brown family work well for a subtle look. Choose the ones that are slightly darker than your skin tone, or try a gold that really glimmers and shines. Other colors to try include greens, aquas, purples and blues. Use an off-white, shiny shadow on your brow bone to make your eyes really stand out.
Golden-toned skin: Apply pale gray, slate blue, purple or pink on the lids and one shade darker in the crease for accent. Highlight the brow bone with off-white shadow.
Light brown skin: Brown shadow with a shimmer works beautifully, but don’t shy away form vibrant shades like greens, blues or purples. Keep the shadow sheer, and use one that sparkles.
Dark skin: Try eyeshadow that is one shade lighter than your skin tone. Try using a shadow with gold or silver flecks of shine. If you prefer a little more color, use deep shades of purple or burgundy and line the eye with dark colors.
Most experts don’t advocate trying to match your eyeshadow to your eye color. Instead, follow these guidelines: Green eyes look great with purples, bronzes or browns; blue eyes perk up with peaches, yellow and golds; and for brown eyes, anything goes.
Day to Night: Which Colors Make the Transition Best?
When you are applying makeup for daytime, you can use just a base color and mascara. At night, you want a more dramatic look. This is best achieved by using darker colors with lots of sparkle and shine. Because using a wet brush will intensify powder shadow colors, you can use the same shadow from day to night, but use the wet brush for your evening application. Shimmery cosmetics are great for adding interest, but be careful not to overdo it, or you will call attention to those lines and wrinkles that you would rather hide.
How to Apply Eyeshadow
Start with a natural concealer that matches your skin tone, or use a primer. This will give you the smoothest, longest-lasting coverage. For basic eyes, use the lightest shade of shadow from the lash line to the brow line. Use a medium shade on the lid and a third color along the lash line and outer corner of your eyes. You can also use that third color in the crease of your eye to add depth, as long as it is the darkest of the three shades.
Try using an eyeshadow brush, rather than a sponge-tipped applicator. A brush is wonderful for blending and offers a nice sheer coverage. Load the brush with shadow, and then blow off the excess before applying. Wash your brushes every couple of weeks with a light shampoo and dry them flat, rather than standing on end. Also, if you love to use different eyeshadow colors, purchase more than one brush and keep the color families separate so they don’t bleed over into each other, leaving you with a muddy-looking mess.
Using Eyeshadows to Fix Those Flaws
Eyeshadow can work wonders to camouflage flaws in the eye and nose area. For close-set eyes, keep the inside corners of the eyes lighter than the outer corners. Use concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin at the inner corner of your eyes and on the sides of your nose. Use a matte shadow in a medium to dark shade, and sweep it outward and upward, starting at the middle of the lid and going toward the outer half.
If your eyes are wide-set, do the opposite. Emphasize those inner corners by using a neutral base and then dusting on a medium to dark color on the inner half of the eyelid, blending outward. You want the most color on the inner half and then let it lighten up as you blend outward. Use eyeliner to line the lid from the inner corner to the middle of the eye. Again, blend outward, lightening up as you go.

1. If you have suddenly developed pronounced under-eye “bags”…
It could be a symptom of an allergic reaction or kidney infection. If other symptoms are also present, such as fever, skin rash, or difficulty breathing, consult your doctor right away. If an allergy is involved, find out what foods you are allergic to and eliminate them from your menu.
The most frequently occurred allergies are to newfangled foods, such as commercial pasteurized milk from hormone-treated cows, processed grains, fruits and veggies with residual pesticides, and other products that people had never eaten until just several generations ago.
Allergies can also be caused by commercial beauty products, such as under-eye creams or mascaras.
2. If you suffer from under-eye puffiness on a regular basis…
Check if it is related to your monthly cycle. If puffiness appears several days before your period, consider it a manifestation of PMS.
Try to use natural diuretics, such as green tea, and eliminate salty foods, most carbohydrates, and excess liquid from your menu about one week prior to your period.
Such measures should drastically reduce hormonal-induced dark circles and puffiness under your eyes, which are caused by premenstrual water retention.
3. Heredity can be involved in the condition, especially when we approach our 40s…
Just look at your Mom or Granma to check if they have dark circles under their eyes, too. If yes, your under-eye puffiness is, most probably, a hereditary condition that runs in the family and there is really not much you can do about it.
In such a case, just try to make peace with your looks and do not be fooled by commercial tricks to sell you yet another “miraculous remedy”.
4. You have swollen eyes, especially when combined with fatigue and fibromayalgia…
That shows that your body is lacking dietary proteins, essential fats, B-vitamins, and folic acid.
Change your diet by including more ecologically-clean meats, fish, and cultured dairy products from pastured cows. Remember that Vitamin B-12 is only contained in animal products, while Vitamin B-6 is most abundant in raw milk, meat, and fish.
Try to find in your area quality raw milk products, especially cheese, and eat frequently traditional raw appetizers, such as steak tartare, kibbeh, or sashimi.
5. Under-eye puffiness is often caused by insomnia, stress, long work days in front of a computer, too much TV, or just great tiredness…
If so, a good long nap would be a miraculous cure. Various eye applications could be helpful, too. While resting, try to apply eye masks made of fresh cucumber slices or moist cold tea bags.
To eliminate dark circles and puffiness on a long run, change your lifestyle: get more sleep and start practising some relaxation or meditation techniques.
Warnings:
Be careful about what type of teabag you use. If you have allergies a tea bag like chamomile might swell your eyes.
Do not apply ice or extremely cold water directly to the skin around the eyes for more than a couple of seconds.
Exercise caution when using a new cosmetic product or trying a home remedy. If the condition worsens, or if you exhibit other symptoms, discontinue use immediately and contact your primary care physician or dermatologist for severe or persisting symptoms.
Consult a physician before considering using any expensive or invasive treatments. Not all Eye Circles are formed equally, and understanding and discussing the root causes of your dark circles with a qualified professional will ensure you don’t waste your money.
