7 Ways To Look Younger Using Makeup

Do you want to discover the fountain of youth? No, I don't talk about plastic surgeries. Follow these easy steps that will make you look younger! The only thing that you need is makeup.

1. Don't use powder

As we age, we lose the natural glow of the skin. Applying powder can make the skin too matte or dull, it can even make it look cakey. Instead of face powder you can use liquid foundations or tinted moisturizers, they won't make your skin too matte, because they allow the skin to shine through.

2. Use creamy pink blush

Powder blush can also dull the skin, applying cream blush gives a nice glow to the cheeks. The pink color adds a nice flush to the cheeks that gives fresh and youthful appearance. 

3. Conceal dark circles

Weather it's the age or the lack of sleep that's giving you dark circles under your eyes, hiding them with a concealer will immediately make you look fresher. The trick is to apply a peach or coral concealer first, that will counteract the blueness of the dark shadows. Secondly, applying as a top layer a concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin, that will brighten the area and will give you a nice youthful look.

4. Apply mascara

Curling your lashes and then applying a mascara will make your eyes look big and fresh. Making your eyes appear larger and more open is a great way to make you look younger. The best way to acomplish that - curl your lashes and apply 1-2 coats of mascara.

5. Wing your liner

Getting that droopiness to the eyelids is another change that happens as we age, but bringing your eyeliner up and out will help lift the eyes. Take a bent liner brush and some gel liner, apply along the upper lashline and wing it up on the outer edge of the eyes.

6. Wear plumping lipgloss

Making the lips look full and glossy is another way to look young and green, plus the lipgloss makes the lips look very sexy and kissable. Avoid dark shades, because that can make the lips look smaller. 

7. Use light shimmer shadow

Applying a light colored shimmery shadow near the tear duct and just under the brows will brighten your eyes and make you look more awake. The key is to not wear shimmery shadow all over the eyes. You should apply it just near the tear duct and under the brows.

Lets not forget that the real thing that makes us look youthful, healthy and fresh is the way we threat our selves. Eat healthy food and exercise, thats the key to youth.

Electric Superbike Powered by Wind - Ecotricity Ion Horse

Ecotricity: A wind-powered electric superbike, developed by one the UK’s leading universities and backed by Britain’s leading green energy company, is taking to the famous Isle of Man TT circuit to become the first electric bike to complete a 100mph average lap.


The £150,000 bike, named the "Ion Horse", has been developed from the ground up by a team at Kingston University London (KUL) and incorporates radical features unseen on an electric bike before. Its lithium polymer cobalt cells power the bike from 0-60mph in three seconds, with a top speed of 140mph. These include a unique new direct drive system expected to give the team the competition edge, whose exact details are being kept closely under wraps.


The team is being backed by Britain’s first green energy company Ecotricity, as part of its mission to help make sport more sustainable and show that electric vehicles can be fast and fun without damaging the planet. The bike will completely powered by wind energy, which will come from Ecotricity’s fleet of 52 windmills. In October 2010, Ecotricity founder Dale Vince unveiled the all-British Nemesis wind-powered sports car, capable of 0-100mph in 8.5 seconds and a top speed of 170mph, with the aim of “blowing the socks off Jeremy Clarkson”.


The TT Zero race on Wednesday 8 June 2011 will see electric superbikes from all over the world compete around the Isle of Man’s twisting 37 mile road circuit. The first electric bike to do a 100mph lap will receive a £10,000 prize from the Isle of Man Government that has remained unclaimed since the race began in 2009.

Ecotricity founder and keen biker Dale Vince said: “Following hard on the heels of our wind powered car, the Nemesis - comes Ion Horse our wind powered bike.  The guys at Kingston have built an amazing machine and we expect it to take the TT by storm.  It's another great demonstration of how transport of the very near future will be - powered by renewable energy, made in Green Britain - and with zero pollution.”

Kingston University London Ion Horse team manager Paul Brandon said: “The Ion Horse is the culmination of years of cutting-edge technology coming together for one purpose – to take the TT’s 100mph lap record. But it’s also a design showcase for what electric bikes could be like, and thanks to the support of Ecotricity, completely powered by wind energy.”

This will be the third year that KUL has entered a bike, having come fifth in 2010, and will again be ridden by George Spence with Paul Brandon as team manager. The team will take part in qualifying sessions on 4 and 6 June before the main race itself.
