How to achieve Beautiful Smiles

Pictures have become famous, songs have been written and commercials on TV tell how to get it. Your smile can make a big difference in your appearance. A pleasant disposition with a pleasing continence can make up for any number of beauty flaws. But you mustn't stop there. A big smile can make you look positively beautiful.

Your smile has two components: 

teeth and lips. 

Teeth

The biggest improvement you can make to your appearance is making sure your teeth are white. This has never been easier than it is today. Tooth color is genetic. Some people are just born with yellow tinted teeth. By avoiding certain foods and beverages, such as coffee, red wine and tea, you can keep teeth whiter. Any foods that stain your clothes will stain your teeth. If your teeth have become discolored, you will be surprised at the results of teeth whitening. The procedure can be undertaken at home or at your dentist's office. The home products require some discipline for about three weeks to apply the whitener, to avoid eating after it is on, and to remove it in the morning. Dentists can perform various teeth whitening procedures which can give quick results in a visit or two.

Lips

Take good care of Lips by making sure there is no dead skin on them, and regularly maintain them with vitamin E or balm to make them look polished and soft.

· Matte lipstick is strong on color without shine but can be drying and look dull. If you like the matte look, get a good expensive lipstick. 

· Crème – nice color without shininess and more moisturizing than matte

· Glossy – the least drying

Lip shape tricks:

· Lips too full? Avoid strong colors. Tone down the color with soft sheer hues and no lip liner. Also, play up your eyes to draw away from or balance out your full lips.

· Lips too thin? Strong colors will just emphasize their thinness. Instead, use light, sheer colors. Never use lip liner outside the natural lip line to try and fake bigger lips. 

· Crooked lips? Gently use your lip liner to even them out.

Lip color depends on your skin tone as well as your clothing colors:

· Best lip colors for fair skin: pales

· Best lip colors for medium skin: deeper colors

· Best lip colors for olive and yellow skin: browns and plums

· Best lip colors for dark skin: dark red, beiges and berry colors
