Make-Up Tips For Warm Weather!

May 22, 2013 11:00 am

Here are five great tips for make-up that'll make your style really show through this spring and summer!

Apply Bronzers
Adding some bronzer to your skin will give you summer tones without the harmful effects of the suns rays. On top of that, the new color you get will allow you to get by with less makeup. That's great, because less is more when it comes to warm weather makeup.

Shelve the Heavy Lipsticks
Skip lip makeup when the weather gets warmer, or keep it simple with a clear or lightly tinted balm. You'll get some subtle color, and added protection from the sun with the SPF that many lip balms have.

Use Cheek Stain
By using a light stain on your cheeks, you can bring out a natural-looking glow that will make you look sun-kissed before you set a single foot outside. Even a little bit can make a world of difference!

Purchase Primers
Sweat is not makeup's friend, and is a challenge that the warmer months bring. By creating that crucial barrier between makeup and skin, primers allow your foundation to stay in place significantly longer and let you look fabulous without fear of smudges and creases.

Use a Brush 
Instead of applying foundation and moisturizer with your fingers, use a brush instead. Doing so will prevent extra oil from getting into your skin. Rubbing it in with your hands will often take moisture out of your face at the same time it's absorbing it.

Hattie’s: Delicious Coastal Cuisine

May 15, 2013 11:00 am

Can't make it to Savannah this weekend? Come to Hattie's for a stunning meal.

The coastal "low country" of the Carolinas, Virginia and Georgia are world-famous for rich seafood dishes and bounteous produce. Hattie's brings that world to Dallas. This is the real deal — down-home, high-class cooking redolent of the Old South. Lunches are casual, with soups and sandwiches. Dinner is the star. Tuck into comforting classics like bacon-crusted meatloaf, mac & cheese, or shrimp and grits, all big hits with regular diners. Get a bottle or glass of wine, or try a specialty cocktail from the bar. The ambiance and service will make you want to come back soon!

Hattie’s
