Has anyone ever had a slimming body wrap? You know the kind that salons claim will make you lose inches? I have been on a diet for the last month and already have lost 5 pounds, but I want to be just a little slimmer for the wedding I'm going to be in next week. Waist size right now is 31" and I'd like to be atleast 28" to look good in my midriff-baring dress. Anybody have experience with these kind of wraps? The dress is not really mid-riff baring I guess. It's 2 pieces so only if I lift my arms would it show my stomach. However, it is slim fitting that's why I don't want to be bulging out over the sides. To "wannabebeachbum": How long did the excess water stay off of you? Would you say the effects of the wrap lasted 24-48 hours? How long?

How do I learn to apply make up? I am 21 and dont know how to apply makeup; the only times I have had it is the rare wedding and even then my mom or my sister apply it but I think they do it wrong or they are biased because each time, I cry because I look like a drag queen (to myself at least). Please do not suggest going to make up counters or stores or salons etc. to learn because I just cannot. I have an anxiety disorder and body image issues, and I simply cannot at age 21 go and ask those beautiful and confident women how to apply lipstick and what in the world is a curler. I swear I would run out crying; I have tried before but I have always chickened out and ran away. I dont even belong on the same floor as those make up counters. This is my mindset so please dont suggest that. Are there other ways to learn privately? By myself? Where I dont have to rely upon someone else and be embarrassed? Are there books? I love books lol.

Make up for the wedding? What is airbrushed make up exactly the benefits the negatives? The make up artist said this is what she will be doing, is it better or worse? I am paying like 3400 for hair and make up from this salon for 4 people so I don't want to be scammed out of my money, and I know NOTHING about make up. Yes I am paying it and I am in NYC.

I am doing a test run, but honestly i dont know one compared to the other like what it should look like. I also will wash it off before i leave so i dont know how it will look after a few hours. Its actually very average some people were quoting me at 6000. Most around 4000. None under 2900.

How to put make-up on? HELP!?

Career as a make-up artist? I have long thought it would be fun to work as a make-up artist. Plus, the transition is easier than most career changes because the training course is short and relatively affordable. However, I have no manual dexterity and I can't draw or paint to save my life. I am not looking to be a super successful make-up artist; I might be content just working part-time at a department store or salon. ($ not important) However, I don't want to do something I will be bad at. Is make-up artistry (at this level) something pretty much anybody can learn to do or does it require a certain amount of natural talent?
