Choosing The Right Underwear

Have a flat tummy in your wedding dress

The stomach is the number one enemy for most brides, but there is one solution to all stomach issues: invest in some high waist control briefs. Choose a pair that has a high-rise design, which extends up to your bust. This will ensure that beneath the dress your silhouette will look sleek without any tell-tale creases or ridges. It also gives you support in other problem areas. The ideal pair of briefs will be: seam free, made from a stretchy fabric and in a subtle shade that cannot be seen through your dress. Although ugly, these undies will effortlessly flatten, smooth and suck in all of your bad bits. Most shape underwear ranges have a thong option and some even tackle cellulite.

Choose the right bra for your wedding dress

Which bra you choose will depend upon your dress. Most wedding dresses that reveal cleavage are designed with the belief that brides will wear an enhancing bra. Therefore if your dress shows off your chest you will need to wear a push up or gel bra. If your dress is backless opt for a self-adhesive bra. Yet, if your dress is backless and you have a large chest, a self-adhesive bra will not offer you enough support. Instead

Find The Right Bra

Okay, how many of you own the bra equivalent of "bacon briefs"? While we can't possibly be expected to wear sexy lacy push-ups (with matching panties) 24/7 like movie bombshells, we should at least be outfitted in undergarments that fit comfortably, support the twins, and discreetly make tops fall better. Here are some tips to finding the right bra!

Does your cup runneth over?

While spilling out of your bra might look sexy—in fact, fashion stylists usually get a cup size smaller for sultry photo shoots—wearing the wrong bra can be extremely uncomfortable, and even unflattering.

Picking a too-small bra for that D-I-Y push-up look can constrict our breathing or pinch our skin. Or worse, when we get a cup size too big and stuff it with tissue, we have to cross our fingers that it doesn't accidentally fall out. How inconvenient is that? Meanwhile, more "blessed" Pinays who favor flimsy bras might not realize that a better bra choice can help ease back pain and prevent the saggy boob look.

Have you been buying the wrong bra size all along?

Remember, band size and cup size are two different things—a wider girl can still be flat-chested, and just because you're tiny doesn't mean you're automatically a 32AA.

Here's how to calculate your proper bra size: Wrap a soft measuring tape tightly around your ribcage, just below the bust line. Then add five inches to this to get your band size (so if your measurement is 29, add 5 and your band size is equivalent to 34).

How To Deal With Stretch Marks

Many pregnant women in their third trimester wake up to discover that, seemingly from out of nowhere, red or purple lines have suddenly appeared on their stomach, hips or breasts.

Medically known as striae distensae, we know them as the dreaded “stretch marks.”

Although pregnancy may be a cause, mothers-to-be aren’t the only ones in danger of getting them. Stretch marks also

Beauty Mistakes That Add Years To Your Face

Makeup can be a double-edged sword. When used the right way, it can shave years off your face, but when used the wrong way, boy, is it ever wrong. A shade that clashes with your skin tone doesn't just make you look like a scary kabuki, it can make you sallow and older than you really are.

Check out the beauty pitfalls that can inadvertently age you and learn how to sidestep it so you can remain looking youthful—or at least look your real

Your Moisturizer Still Leaving Your Skin Dry?

Moisturizers play a big role in skincare when it comes to having softer, smoother skin. Made up of a combination of chemical agents, moisturizers are designed to make the external layers of the skin or the epidermis retain and attract moisture, hence the supple effect on the skin. They also replace key lipid components and form a protective layer
