How to Make New Friends
It is a cruel irony that people who are lonely and desperate to make friends often come across as unfriendly. While some people attract new friends like a magnet, for others it is not so easy. It can be especially difficult for reserved or quiet individuals, who may take time to connect with others. Luckily there are a few simple things you can do to counteract this.
1. Make an effort: No one is going to want to be friends with someone with a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp, so be sure to smile. Striking up a conversation can be daunting, but do try. Start small and keep chat natural and allow things to develop from there.
2 Keep an open mind: Do not be too quick to dismiss the people you meet. While it is easy to assume that one does not have much in common with strangers, this can be a big mistake. A friend likes nothing better than regaling her buddies of several years standing with tales of how she could not stand them on first meeting, for being everything from too mouthy to too bland. Living proof that it's best not to set too much store on first impressions.
4. Say "yes: "To dinner, drinks, coffee, life-drawing anything. No-one ever made friends sitting at home watching TV, so get out there. Even if you don't go on to become best mates with the person who invited you along, attending lots of social events gives you a good chance of meeting other people who you do click with.
5. Invest your time: Starting a new job or moving to a new area can leave even the most socially adept of us running low on friends. While it takes time and shared experiences to become true friends, why we often regard old friends from school as the closest, don't let this put you off making new friends. Put in the effort and you will get there!
How to make Fantastic eyebrows
The general rule is that your eyebrows should start with a vertical line from the eye’s inner corner straight up to the brow. The arch should begin at the outer edge of the iris of your eye; it helps to lift and open up your eyes.
The outer corner is where you want your eyebrow to stop. If your eyebrow grows past that point, it tends to make your eyes go down.
HERE ARE SOME FANTASTIC BROW TIPS;
Always use a brow colour that is as natural looking as possible. The main objective is to define not create overpowering brows. To fill in, comb first with a brow brush/comb, then use feather like strokes with your pencil to fill in. To create a more natural look, comb again after applying the pencil.
• When using a brow definer or brush on brows the same method is used.
• When using powdered brow colour, use a harder bristled angle brow brush and draw tiny hair like strokes. When using a brow pencil, maintain a sharp edge and use the same technique as the brush. You may use a disposable mascara wand to soften.
• The trick is to comb, apply, comb.
• If your brows are low or close to the eyes, bleaching them can ‘open up’ the face. This is a practice of the world’s best makeup artists.
• Do not over pluck your eyebrows so that instead of filling in tiny spots, you will be drawing a whole eyebrow that can smudge and look very fake!
• Use brown or dark brown pencil instead of black, to keep your brows as natural looking as possible.
Remember eyebrows frame the face and add depth and character, so make sure yours speak volumes!

How to Become a Magazine Publisher
A magazine publisher is the person in charge of the entire magazine operation, from start to finish. He or she has the final say even above the editor-in-chief in how the magazine looks, both in design and editorial content.
Step1
Get a degree, preferably in publishing, business, design or communications. A Bachelor's degree is recommended for most publishing positions, and a master's degree is highly recommended for a career in this field, but neither are necessarily required if you have enough knowledge and experience in the market.
Step2
Work in the industry to gain experience. The best publishers have been writers, layout designers, editors or photographers themselves. Know what goes into creating a magazine from the ground up.
Step3
Create a business plan if you are starting a new magazine, or possess business knowledge if stepping into an existing magazine publisher position. Your magazine is your business and career, so the more you know about how your money is being spent the better.
Step4
Read magazines. To keep your magazine fresh and profitable, follow industry trends and always try to outsell your competition, no matter if your magazine is in the small or large scale. Look through and read content of other magazines to stay in the know.
Step5
Hire a team to work with your project. You are in charge of editorial, advertising and promotions, circulation, distribution, finance and accounting, marketing, production and research. If you are a small magazine or are just starting out, you may have to do some of these jobs yourself or hire a small team to take care of multiple pieces of the project.
Step6
Read books such as "Publish Your Own Magazine, Guide Book or Weekly Newspaper" by Thomas A. Williams or "Starting & Running a Successful Newsletter or Magazine" by Cheryl Woodard. Organizations such as the Magazine Publishers Association can also give you information about industry standards and tips to keep your business running smoothly.
