What do u think that is sophisticaded makeup?

Q. What kind of looks should a classy young woman wear?
I want to do natural and sophisticaded make-up...what do u advise me?

A. Use a powder or foundation to eliminate shine, but only use it where you need it, and make sure you blend it in well. Don't use too much or it will look really fake. I would use a light blush, not a dark one, because dark makes you look toned, and when I think of "sophisticated" I think of lighter, paler looks.
Anyway, for your eyes, I would suggest putting eyeliner on only your top eyelid, and then just do a coat of mascara. Your eyes will look huge and pop, without looking like you have a ton of makeup on.
Hope this helps! If you have any more questions, email me at: skippy_339@hotmail.com , I'd love to answer any questions you have!

How do i make oreo balls?
Q. Has anyone ever heard of these? There is a woman where i live that owns a bakery shop and she makes these little chocolate covered balls that she calls "o" balls. She told me she uses a cream cheese and crushed oreo mix, molds them into a ball,and covers them with chocolate. She had to get this recipe from somewhere! and i would like to find out the exact recipe(as in, amounts of cream cheese and oreo and how to blend them together).
CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS? Please and Thank you!!!!!
Thanks so much everyone for all your answers! I really liked the variation "mouse potato" submitted on the chocolate mint snowballs!

A. I just had these at a Christmas party....to die for. I still can't believe that the only ingredients are oreos and cream cheese. The gal who brought them made them about the size of golf balls, so much larger than a "truffle"...but quite the treat! I love making "real" truffles with ganache, etc. but these were really amazing, too!

Oreo "Truffles"
8 oz. cream cheese
1 pound Oreos
1 pound milk or dark chocolate
1/2 pound white chocolate

Grind Oreos to find powder in food processor. With a mixer, blend cookie powder and cream cheese until thoroughly mixed (there should be no white traces of cream cheese). Roll into small or large balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet. Chill 45 minutes.
Line two cookie sheets with wax paper. In double-boiler, melt milk or dark chocolate. Dip balls and coat thoroughly. With slotted spoon or fork, lift balls out of chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off. Place on wax-paper-lined cookie sheet. In separate double boiler, melt white chocolate. Using a fork, drizzle white chocolate over balls. Let cool.
Store in airtight container, in refrigerator.

What should I wear to a fall fashion show?
Q. Im going to a fall fashion show in a week and I have no clue what to wear. Im not looking to stand out, I just want to blend in with everyone else. I was told to stay away from black (which is all I own). I'm a very clean cut and basic person so I am having difficulty figuring out what I should wear. I preferably would not like to have to go out and spend a lot of money on a new outfit either.

A. you could try a blazer, simple white tee, and dark wash skinny jeans. and then some fun accessories, but try to keep it light.

or...

something like this style to make you look smart and sofisticated: http://www.juicycouture.com/shoponline/women/apparel/dresses/prodT1P8E

How to cover up a tattoo (temporarily)?
Q. First I would like to say I am a grown woman. I am going to my aunts house this weekend and the weather will be warm. I have a tattoo on my wrist and I just don't want to hear her nagging and insults. It there a way to cover it up?

A. ok so this may sound like a weird way to cover a tattoo up, but it works!

all you need is a red lipstick (bright or dark)
a cream foundation lighter then your skin
a cream foundation darker then your skin
loose powder the same tone as your skin
sponge and powder/blush brush

Step 1:
Apply a thin red coat of red lipstick, then let dry

Step 2:
Apply a second thin red coat, then let dry

Step 3:
Apply lighter foundation with a sponge, making sure you blend with your skin around the red. (Blot ontop of red, rub/blend outside of red). Let foundation dry

Step 4:
Apply darker foundation with the same technique as step 3. Let foundation dry

Step 5:
Apply loose powder with a blush or powder brush to set foundation.

Your tattoo should now be covered. Be sure to try this the day before to make sure it does work.

Hope this helped.
