Summer CancerCancer:
Cancers who love to flatter their busts have much to choose from in the way of summer dresses and flattering blouses. Cancer can wear a blouse like no other, except for perhaps the ever fashionable Libra, and should wear blouses because they look so proper yet so sexy depending on the blouse and how you wear it. A Cancer loves summer because of the summer frocks available and how sexy they can be while doing wonders for the bust!

Undergarments are important here and depending on what you wear underneath the garment can be very sexy or you can wear a different kind of bra and minimize the look of being busty in a summer dress. If you like to show a bit of cleavage go ahead and do so this summer and if you are going to the office remember your cover up to throw on when you get to work and take off for lunch and after hours! The Cancer type dresser loves dresses and loves to show their womanly ways off in what they wear. Cancer is very aware of their body and often enjoy a great neckline so think about the neckline of any top or dress before you buy and whether you have the undergarments for the item.

Summer dresses are made for Cancer and usually have all the womanly traits they are looking for in a dress. Try printed dresses with all sorts of tops and if the dress has a halter or is strapless remember to wear a coverup when you are going somewhere more conservative! The forties-style dresses are made for you as are the blouses because they often are shaped like a woman’s body, have darts and are tailored to look just a bit vampy. To flatter your figure is what you are looking for and remember to look for those necklines that show a bit of skin without being rude. There is a fine line between rude and sexy when it comes to necklines so find the right side when you shop and you should ring all the bells that Cancer loves!

An apron dress is a great way to go as well because it flatters on top and gives you a bustline that cannot be ignored. You could go for a classic forties dress in cotton that is floral and be right on target for what you love. If you prefer pants remember to shop for at least three blouses or tops for each pant and keep in mind the tips for tops when you look.

Color looks great on Cancer and they tend to look great in sea colors like green and blue and if the color is jewel tone it tends to look more flattering and draw more attention. Clothing this summer has much color as does make up so it is a fine time to shop for those colors that flatter. I love a Cancer in a dress with a cropped cut cardigan so look for a cardigan that is cropped at the waist with buttons that you can throw on over all your summer dresses and that will match as many as possible. You could do with a few cardigans if they are cropped for they flatter the bust when they are open or partially buttoned. The “twin set” looks great on Cancer which is a shell and matching cardigan so think about looking and collecting “twin sets” from thrift shops or vintage stores that will work all your life with your clothing. You do great with short sweaters that are loose weave and cotton if they are worn as tops so you could collect beaded light sweaters as well to throw over you bottoms and use as tops or light cover ups.

Someone who dresses for Cancer also looks dreamy in the classic “sun dress” too so shop for sun dresses and cover them up with your short cardigans for a great look! Sun dresses in prints look best on Cancer because they can support a print with their open personalities when they are caring and they match the happy days that Cancer can create around their home! An open Cancer is a wonder when it comes to love so show yourself as who you are if you dress for Cancer and go ahead and put on that little sun dress no matter what your size because fit is what is important, not size! Don’t be afraid to show your “homey” side because it attracts many people who you would be compatible with and how you dress often helps you make friends!

“Pretty” is the word when I think of a Cancer type’s hair so think about that when choosing a hair style! No matter what your hair type curls look fantastic on Cancer types so whether your hair is short or long think about using a curling iron or hot rollers to add a bit of curl or wave to your hair. If you use something to protect the hair before you use a curling iron or rollers your hair will stand up to whatever you do and look fine after you do it. The straightest hair can be curled or waved even with fingers or adding bobby pins while it is wet. Think about curls near the face to soften your look and help you fit the Cancer type. If you add setting lotion of some sort and a texturizer to your hair before you curl it the curl will hold better and make friends with hair spray again because there are some great ones on the market. Now days the product makes the hair so think about how you can change up your hair to look “pretty” and make you look like the Cancer type you are!

When rolling the hair remember to roll away from the root so you have lift at the root. Many people don’t think of the direction they are rolling their hair and end up with curls that don’t lift at the root! You can add a few curls at layers near the face if your hair is short or curl all of your hair if your hair is long. Remember to use product because you don’t need to do your hair every day at all if you set it right and have product in it. Wash your hair every third day or so if it’s not oily and your set should last if you do a scrunch on it in the morning using a holding product. Most product won’t cause buildup these days and there is no reason you should have to set your hair daily! Even if you have a pixie cut or a cut that is long on one side and short on the other you can curl the top or the side that is long and look very “pretty” and like a Cancer loves to look.

If you tint your hair or curl it Cancer loves to look lovely so think about using a deep conditioning mask on your hair once a week. You can find deep conditioning treatments at any price point or even make one yourself at home so it’s a great thing to do and something anyone can do to make their hair prettier. The difference is great when you use a deep conditioner and the fly aways are pretty much “ghost” when you condition deeply. Think about making one if you are handy in the kitchen as many Cancer types are and look on the internet for ideas as to what to add to your home conditioner. Don’t be afraid to post to ask others what they use to deep condition for ideas! I’ve seen hair styles change and look fantastic with one dose of deep conditioning so don’t blow it off if it’s something you are not doing yet. Do you have a home conditioner recipe? If so please post it here! If you are lucky and have natural waves and curls you can use a leave in conditioner and it will take great care of your hair. One way to use a conditioner if you have thick and wavy hair is to apply is when your hair is wet and then add a gel or holding product to style your hair on top of it. If you have a conditioner on your hair before you add a style product it will protect your hair and make it shiny and manageable before you even try to tame it! Some Cancer types could just let their hair dry naturally if they have waves or curly hair by adding a leave in conditioner before adding a holding product and just letting the hair dry or using a diffuser with your blow dryer. If you smooth the curls near your face it will make your skin look smoother and better whether you use foundation or not. The skin looks nicer when the curls near your face are smooth and winkles are less noticeable.

One thing I love on a Cancer type’s face is a drop of blush on the cheeks! Try a natural pink that is the color of your skin when it actually blushes to make it most believable and use a crème in the summer when it’s hot. If you have oily skin you may do better with powder but even if you sport a tan in the summer add a drop of blush to your face to make it look pretty and open like a Cancer should look! If you have a hard time picking a blush remember that it is a very important part of your look and go ahead to a counter to let someone help you choose one even if you invest just a bit in the color. It is worth it for Cancer types to spend a bit of money on a blush and if you need ideas for a company that might suit your price point or even if you just need ideas for a company that might work for you go ahead and post for ideas!

Use a drop of concealer on the eye in the corners without using it completely under the eye area so that you are only covering the dark parts of your eye and not the entire area. A concealer brightens up the eye area but over use of a concealer makes us look like raccoons! Add a coat or two of mascara and the person who dresses for Cancer might like to use a primer first to get some plump lashes from their mascara. I recommend that Cancer types use a primer and then at least one coat of mascara but even two if they can handle it because the eye looks so pretty with mascara applied. Liner is not needed for Cancer because it can look hard on them but they can apply a liner if they are addicted to it by smudging the liner after applying it. Even a smudge of liner can take away from the Cancer eye so make sure you aren’t applying too much liner and taking away the pretty look that mascara can give you! Opening up the face is key to making the Cancer look pretty so keeping it looking welcoming is the idea to keep in mind.

Cancer types look smashing in lipstick and with a bit of pigment so the lipstick formula should have pigment and not be a gloss or a stain. Try a lipstick formula that has coverage and think about colors that are natural and pretty like pinks and roses. You can wear a rose or pink lipstick that does not match your cheeks and look great. Shop for your lipstick and keep in mind that you are going for “pretty” and welcoming when you shop. Never buy a lipstick you cannot try on your lips so go to the makeup stores that have become popular to find your color or a makeup counter at a department store. Once you’ve found your color you can order it again and again on line so it pays to do that pre-shopping where you can try as many colors as you like. I tend to buy two lipsticks when I find the color I want so I have one at home and one in my purse and I never run out during the season.

No matter that it is summer I still think Cancer looks best in pinks and roses and if you have a tan just go a shade darker than you normally would! You can sport a tan and be the Cancer type dresser if you still use blush and lipstick so just add more if you tan and you will still look pretty! A tinted moisturizer is great for Cancer types and evens out the skin tone getting rid of red and brown patches or covering up those occasional break outs. No matter if you are tan or not a bit of tinted moisturizer looks finished on Cancer and adds to the pretty look you are going for. If you are one to use powder to finish the face make sure you go easy on the powder because it can give the face an edge that puts a block between you and people and you want to stay open in your look. Just a dusting of powder over some tinted moisturizer is best for you and make sure you take the time to match the tint to your skin color. If you tan in the summer go ahead and get a tinted moisturizer that matches your tanned skin for the summer and switch out for fall. You want a finished look that still lets the sun hit your skin and keeps your face open to all!

Summer LeoLeo:
A Leo-type dresser is a statement maker in everything they wear. Nothing works better for Leo than an outfit or item that stands out because they can deal with the attention and drama it can create! Something edgy in the summer works great for Leo and sometimes it starts with denim. Denim is huge this summer and cut offs are everywhere for shorts. If you can pull of the new look of cut-offs remember to top them with a print that says something and simple shoes that slip on and are flat work fantastic with the look. You can use a Capri length jean with a tunic that has an ethnic print to show yourself in the summer and think of colors like purple and pink in the print to really make it stand out. Depending on your body type you can pick your denim statement and just about any piece you want to show off will work with denim. Try animal print tops and 70′s tunics to make a statement and add jewelry that you can pile on because Leo types look great in gobs of jewelry that is layered.

Denim with denim is also very in this summer and the idea is to wear two different washes together. A light denim shirt with dark denim bottom is a great way to wear this trend and again I would layer on gold jewelry because I love a Leo type in gold jewelry that is layered! A statement jacket to wear over dresses and denim shorts of jeans is a great idea for Leo too because you can get so much wear out of one item.

Finding the perfect coverup is crucial for the Leo because the collar frames their hair and we all know how important the hair is to a Leo! Think in terms of “loud” and “statement piece” when it comes to your jacket of cover up and think about wearing it over everything from your dresses to jeans to bathing suit! You look smashing in anything over the top so white is great for a coverup in the summer against and tan or anything ethnic or animal print. You can also buy a coverup with sequins or jewelry details so you don’t have to layer your jewelry and it’s on your jacket every day! No one gets tired of a great jacket so I recommend making it your go-to piece and putting the most money and time in finding and buying your jacket or coverup. Jeweled collars are great to frame your face and hair as are loud prints that work with everything in your closet that is solid colored or of the same color as your jacket.

The other way to make a statement if you are Leo is your shoe. You can rock an amazing shoe and dress up just about all your clothing if you sink some money and time into looking and buying an amazing pair of sandals to wear with all your summer clothing. If you can manage a heel you can find some fantastic statement shoes at just about every store and dress everything up especially if the shoe is of a color or maybe two or three colors! Wearing a statement shoe picks up every outfit and makes dressing simple because many colors can be used as a “neutral” in the summer. White, red, blue or green can be worn on the feet for summer and make a dramatic statement when you dress. The trick is to decide if you want to show off your legs this summer or the top of your body and choose either a statement jacket or shoe depending on what you choose!

If your legs are where the attention should go then buy the shoe that rocks the house and let your wild side show there. If you are a woman that loves to show off her hair and face or bust go for the statement jacket to keep things simple for you yet still as dramatic as you like it. Saving money and playing it smart means to put thought into every piece you buy for summer and putting the thought into one area shows you care and will attract the attention Leo types love!

I want to mention the drama of the new long dresses for Leo. The drama that comes from a long dress is unmatched and after a few seasons of designing them there are now some great and sexy dresses in the maxi length. I think every Leo should try the long length dress and dress it up with a sandal that is flat! There are long dress in patterns that are attention grabbers and the style can be goddess-like and very Leo type! Try a long dress that grabs your figure where you want it to grab or if you’d like more room in it try a dress that is an “A” shaped design to give you more room. The idea is to get a pattern that is full of life and that looks great against tanned skin because your skin looks fantastic in summer with a tan or at least a face that has a bit of a tanned touch!

No one looks great in the sun like the Leo type! You can fake the sun in so many ways that you should get your tan happening as soon as you can to show your light in the best way. If you are not a sun person you are not a Leo-type dresser but if you love the look of a tan and what the sun can do to kiss the skin with color you are probably someone who dresses for Leo. You can get a simply tanned look on your face by brushing some bronzer all over the face while avoiding the bronzer that has too much shimmer because too much shimmer shows flaws and looks very fake! You want a colored tanner or bronzer that is powdered or an all over face tanner in a color that is natural looking on your skin. Simply brush or smooth the tanner all over your skin and add a bit of blush on your cheeks to show some healthy color shining through. It is the simplest way to show your love of sun by giving your face some color and remember to dust your neck a bit as well to keep things smooth. You don’t need to worry about getting a tan if you use this makeup and it is the most healthy for your skin! You can sport a tan using a self tanner and the best allow you to build a tan by applying it daily until it is as dark as you want it to be and a natural looking color. The building tanning products are safe and work wonders but make sure the color is not going to be orange or yellow by testing the tanner on the inside of your palm first to see what color develops. You want a brown color on your skin and to be believable you don’t want to tan your face to the extreme if you don’t tan your body as well. You can also find the products that help you gradually build a tan for the body and do all of yourself and that can look smashing on Leo type dressers! Try building a tan daily and keeping it up by applying the tanner every other or third day after you achieve the color that looks the best on you. The other safe way to get a tan is to apply a product that deposits color fast and in one application but this requires practice and should be a product you know and have used before. There is nothing so sweet as a tan on a Leo type so try it on your face first if you’ve never tried it and see what you think!

Makeup should be simple with a tan to keep the attention to your skin color so think about a simple blush that is in the pink or even orange color to add interest to the face but apply with a light hand to make it believable! You want to add mascara to make your eyes show but keep your liner smudged with a tan to make it look natural and a bit casual. Wearing the beach look on your face can be smashing at the office or anywhere you go so master this look and make your summer that much more fun!

Lipstick with a tan should be light and either a stain or a watercolor look. You can find sheer lipsticks in many companies and if you need a tip as to where to look go ahead and post! The idea for lips is to get a color on them that shows but with a tan one does not want heavy pigment because it can look caked and unnatural. You want to avoid the gooey look of lip gloss with a tan these days but the lip gloss has been replaced by watercolor inspired lipsticks! Lipstick Queen is always a “go to” company for the newest color formulas and they can be ordered from Barneys New York on line.

I love the smudged eye liner look with a tan that almost looks like you woke up and forgot to wash your face so blend well when you apply liner and start by applying it close to your lash line and then blending it out until you see no line and it looks like you almost used a shadow to line your eyes. You can use a shadow to achieve this affect if you’d like so apply a smoky shade of shadow around your eyes and make sure you don’t apply it too heavily on the lower lashes so you don’t have raccoon eyes!

Hair these days is great for Leo types because big hair is in again and curls abound! Using a body wave is finally decent for your hair and much safer than the perms used in the 80′s so you could get a body perm and it would last for about three months at which time you would need your roots done to keep the body. If you have curly hair now is the time to sport it and have it cut to flatter and bring our your curls! There are plenty of new techniques in cutting curly hair and most hairdressers who continue their education have had classes in the new techniques to bring out curl in the hair since it is so hot right now to have curls. I have gone over techniques for curling the hair in a previous post so please refer to that post to get tips but certainly find a way to show you curls if you have them!

Dramatic cuts look great on Leo and a Leo type loves, believe it or not, even a shaved head look! If the look is dramatic they love it and if your head shape will support a shaved look I think it’s great looking and very flattering if your face will support the look! Why not finally shave your head if you’ve been thinking about it for years?

There is also a tendency to pull the hair off the forehead in a strong way for Leo types and this means tight ponytails or buns that are dramatic and leave no hair hanging. This look of the tightly drawn back hair can be very, very dramatic and if you can pull it off go for it! The problem with pulling the hair back strongly is that it can cause hair loss on the forehead so be careful how often you wear your hair this way and try to get a bit loose on the top near the forehead to protect your hair! Many woman who have worn their hair tightly pulled back for years have lost hair along the hair line and have their foreheads more prominent for it! Take care of the hair as you go dramatic with it and remember that healthy hair is the best hair no matter what you do with it!

Leo types love to style their hair so deep conditioning is important for them as is a conditioner that is a crème and that you can leave in that won’t weigh the hair down. Look for a crème that is for body and that adds conditioner as well as hold for the right mixture for your hair style. If your head is shaved remember to condition the scalp to keep flakes away and make your skin healthy. If you curl your hair remember to roll away from the roots for lift and tilt your head down if you can and then throw your hair forward. Finish a head full of curls with a great hairspray and remember a setting product to make the look last for days and let you be free from washing for a few days at least! The less you wash your hair the more your hair’s natural oils can condition your hair and the less fly-aways and frizzes! The idea for Leo types is to find a hairstyle that stands out and that you feel fantastic in no matter how many you try and remember to add color for interest and for depth because there is no end to what the application of color can do for a look these days!

Summer VirgoVirgo:
A Virgo type needs a working wardrobe that suits their work more than their play time, most certainly! Virgo tends to lean toward a uniform that works for their busy lives and can stay fashionable when they find this workable uniform but they need a bit of interest in that uniform to attract people to them and allow them to share their great minds and ability to help others. First, Virgo types, your wardrobe needs to be machine washable and separates that are meant to be worn together give you the best mileage and allow you to mix it up without becoming a fashion accident by mixing labels too much. Find a couple lines that suit you and buy in those lines so you can mix and match with great joy and never look “off center.” You look great in natural colors and they suit you because they calm you and being calm is always good for the person dressing for Virgo. Think about cotton for summer and layers that you can remove or keep on depending on changes in weather. You’ll need to buy a jacket that goes with all your separates and that is in a neutral color even if it is white and only for summer!

A Virgo needs a simple collar on their clothes and not too much embellishment because the clothing that is highly embellished tends to wear them and overpower them to the point that they cannot get their opinions out! Keep it simple and mix prints with solids while remembering to check care labels. Keep your cotton summer clothing well by washing it only when you need to wash it so you don’t break down the fabric and never use a dryer because it’s better to air dry your clothing and this is possible in the summer.

I love Virgo in wide-legged pants and cropped tops, simple summer dresses and skirts with tops that are a bit sweet with a ruffle here or there or a floral pattern. Looking a bit pulled together advertises your mind and that is what we want to reflect to people. Keep prints small and you can try your hand at mixing prints if you are in the same line of clothing and if the colors are matching and the patterns are small. Try cap-sleeved blouses with your skirts and keep the color that is strong away from your face to allow you to show up in your clothing. You may be Virgo but not dress for Virgo but if you do dress for Virgo you want to keep things simple.

Using your brain in buying clothing is the best way to go if you are a Virgo-type dresser. Remember that vertical stripes are slimming so buy your dresses with vertical stripes when you can find a summer dress with them. Horizontal stripes look great on a top if you are wearing a solid pant, jeans or a skirt. You can get more wear out of piece if you buy multiple tops for the bottoms that you buy and if you stick with only two or three designers that use the same type of fabric you can mix and match more outfits and things work like a uniform! You want to choose clothing that lets you move easily because you stay busy, busy even if it’s in your mind and being bound by clothing is not your style. You need to remember that flowing soft cotton separates work wonders on your body even if you are thin and you need not wear tight things to show off your figure.

Think about what you have to wear with what when you are shopping because Virgo types love to get wear out of their clothing and would rather add to an existing wardrobe than to buy a whole new on each season. There are lines I can recommend for you if you post so don’t be afraid to ask! Some earthy signs like the mix and match labels like Eileen Fisher, Heidi Klum, Art of Cloth and Cannisse. You can look at these labels and then shop for a line that mimics them at a lower price point and before you know it you will be dressing fast and in a very pulled together way! Summer is meant for looser clothing that flows so start to collect your separates and add to them each season. You also have the choice of making your summer wardrobe out of linen which is very classing and mixes and matches well! Remember that linen is meant to wrinkle and the wrinkles add to its rich look. If you collect linen pieces for summer you can even find linen blazers that look awesome on a Virgo type because although casual it is business serious which most Virgo types are! If you find the right line of clothing for you remember to buy pieces that work in a couple colors or a color and a print to give you many options! Lastly, take great care of your clothing even though you loath taking the time by hanging up pieces after you wear them and looking at care labels. In short, build your summer wardrobe for seasons to come and put some thought into each piece and each decision!

Precision hair cuts appeal to Virgo-type dressers most of all. The idea is to find a very skilled hairdresser who will cut your hair in the most uniform way which is the way you like it. Many Virgo type dressers like their hair a bit short to cut down on time to style and allow them to wash and wear. The cut that you prefer as a Virgo type can be sexy as well if you allow for some pieces that are cut a bit off so you have interest in your hairstyle as well as function! I’ve seen so many Virgo type dressers with very outdated hai cuts because they can’t be bothered to mix it up and like their hair to be functional instead of putting style first! I challenge the Virgo dresser to try a new cut that is very wearable but that has the new interest in piecey looks that add a touch of fashion to their heads! You can get this piecey look by finding a great hair dresser to design it and then just keeping up with cuts to keep it in shape.

Product needs to be introduced to the Virgo dresser and they need to try new products because the new products are so efficient. If you are the Virgo type dresser who wears their hair on the short side you need to decide if you want to wear your hair with hard spikes here and there or if you want to allow the pieces to flow and frame your face. I can tell you that wrinkles are softened by wearing the pieces around your face soft and spiky looks tend to harden the face unless you are very young. You can wear both hard and soft pieces by keeping the harder pieces in the back of your hair and on the crown and letting the softer pieces frame your face. This look is easily achieved by using product and having the right haircut which is fairly simple to cut!

If you are the Virgo dresser that wants length to their hair you probably loath curling it and styling it every day so I recommend you have the most perfect cut you can get that falls the way your hair naturally falls and moves where it moves. You should invest in a good haircut from time to time to keep in style and to keep your hair working at its very best. A Virgo type can follow the steps it takes to use product but often does not shop for product or consider something new so don’t be afraid to do an update on your hair if it’s been some time. Stay away from hair styles that age you like those that are old styles and have been worn forever. Long hair that is one length can also age you and if you are not in your twenties I recommend that you have layers cut in that frame your face and come to chin length at least to give you a youthful look. If you tint your hair yourself like many Virgos I will say again that the store bought tints can leave a build up that looks frizzy and dry and so using a salon brand is better all the way around. If you budget for your hair you will soon have fine looking hair all year round that takes very little effort. There are many Virgo types that are do-it-yourself types and that can lead to hair that is in fairly bad shape especially if you bleach your hair yourself!

The Virgo face looks best when your natural features are highlighted and your face is believable! Your eyebrows should have their natural shape but be cleaned up and never too thin. The Virgo-type dresser never likes to primp and stay too long in front of the mirror but wants their makeup practices to be stream-lined and efficient. A foundation is usually needed in some form but for Virgo-type dressers I like the tinted moisturizer form of foundation for the natural look that it brings. The face usually needs moisture in the summer so go for the tint that matches your face the best and it’s easy to find a tinted moisturizer that matches because you can even choose from “light” “medium light,” “medium,” etc. You need only a few drops and I recommend that the Virgo type use a primer too if they can bring themselves to take the step.

A primer before the tint is good because it reduces the appearance of pores and gives your face a smooth look while adding highlight if you buy one with highlights in it. You can get a smooth look on your skin and half the battle is done! A Virgo-type dresser needs to look healthy and that is the main objective here. Healthy skin is smooth and the pores are small. You need to have your blotches covered to appear healthy and so the light foundations are the best for you. Too much coverage is not for the Virgo type because it’s just too hard to manage and looking healthy means showing a bit of your skin! Add a dab of blush in a crème form or a stain because it looks healthy as well and is most believable in the summer. You want your skin to look moisturized in the summer especially if you are sporting a tan which is also a healthy look. Read my posts about adding a tan if you feel like looking even healthier and take the steps to have tanned skin underneath your blush.

Mascara should be kept to a minimum so use a mascara that is quality and remember that many Virgo types have sensitive skin so get one that is for sensitive skin if you find mascara makes your eyes itch or you have other problems with mascara and eye makeup. I love a concealer to show off the eye area but only in the corners of the eye while leaving the under eye bare. Your eyes are only dark, in most cases, in the corners so that is where you need to apply your concealer.

If you are a Virgo-type dresser and have freckles go ahead and let them shine through because they look cute and very natural in the summer and to cover them means to saturate your face with tint and you don’t want a heavy tint on your skin!

A Virgo type needs to break down and buy a lipstick this summer because colors are so great this season and it looks healthy to have a bit of color on your lips. Go ahead and get a bit crazy for a Virgo type and buy a color that has pigment but make sure you try on many colors to find your best match. A Virgo type looks great in lipstick and does not mind wearing it if it matches their skin perfectly! The Virgo type is a very tough customer so make sure you try colors and ask for hints because you will not be satisfied unless the color is perfect for you! If you find your perfect color go ahead and buy two tubes so you have one at home and one in your purse and you don’t have to worry about running out or having to buy another before the season is over. Lips will still be “in” next summer so you can use the same perfect color next summer and it is an investment! Investing is important to Virgo and they need to know WHY something is important to wear and I can tell you that healthy lips are colored with a color that flatters your skin color and that shows. The lip glosses of yesterday will not cut it for Virgo types because they are just too little color and too shiny for the Virgo type. Go ahead and shop “real” lipstick for real color and something that matters on your lips!

Curl your eyelashes, Virgo, because it opens your eye and gives your eye a pop. I don’t really think the healthy Virgo needs to line their eyes but having a smudged thin line on the upper lashes when it’s right on the lashline makes your eye lashes look thicker so lining there and smudging might be a great idea for your look!

The most important tip I can give a Virgo-type dresser is to watch the colors you wear near your face in the summer sun! Natural colors look best and when you choose a haircolor remember that hair is not just one color and highlights appear naturally in hair! You may want to invest in highlights every three months to make your hair color look more natural and make sure stay in the color family that is natural to you look. A Virgo type need not bother with pinks or greens in their hair unless they are dressing for another part of their chart because it makes the face color look a bit unhealthy when odd colors are near the skin!

Remember that tops, dresses and anything including jewelry that is near your face should flatter your skin and make it look like it has a glow! Whatever color metal works best for your skin color is the color you want for jewelry so if you are a gold person then wear gold near your skin but if you look better in silver jewelry go for silver or platinum to look better! A Virgo type can wear feathered jewelry if the feather is of natural color and stones and wood work well near their faces as well! If you need ideas go ahead and post for them but most of all remember to make you skin be your best asset if dress for Virgo!

Love reading you … I’m a Taurus Sun, but I’m also Leo Rising. I want the drama! I’m heading out shopping again this weekend, and you give great tips. Many, many thanks :)

Truly, it’s like you’re reading my mind. How did you know what I think about pale glossy glosses?! And yes, busy and over-patterned/embellished clothes do wear me, and wear me out til I disappear to nothing. And, er, you even knew I’m a do-it myself gal, and would have to *break down* to buy a tube of lipstick. (yes, a nice healthy color does help a lot, so I should really stop thoughtlessly using old lipstick that’s just lying around.) All very Virgo. Sigh. Wish you were here to go through my closet with me.

Although none of these apply to me, I just love reading (as I am a longtime hairstylist) and alot of the virgo applies, get this too my husband!! Have you ever done any tips for men? Or in my case the women that buy for them?? I am a sag, and I am just now understanding what makes my husband look good.. he will wear the same thing 3-4 days in a row!! and he is really sensitive to laundry detergent.. do you know of a good one? odd question, but it really bothers my virgo husband.. You have an amazing gift!! Simply amazing..

oh and sometimes he secretly uses my foundation if he has acne.. and my virgo dad used to do this too!! But it looks so obvious, and as I am a Sag I feel it is my duty too tell him.. They should make something for men.. :)

Hi JB.
There is a laundry detergent for babies that I can’t remember the name of but it is for sensitive skin and probably will suit your husband. It is at every grocery store and is made to wash babies clothes with.
As to his make up problem he can use a woman’s product but he should wear a different sort of foundation. He could use some “Dermalogica” for his skin, they have great formulas for acne and he might be able to clear his skin using their products. Also, a dermatologist can aid him in helping his acne if the product does not work.
Would you like a different foundation product for him? I would suggest Clinique for a foundation if I were looking for one for a man. They also have men’s skin care.
There are some men’s make up products available if you search on “Sephora” you should find cosmetics for men now.
Best of luck, JB, tell me how it goes!

Could you be thinking of Dreft Annalisa. Don’t know if they still even sell it. Long time since I had my kids. :-)

Yes, Norah, that’s it! If they don’t sell it anymore I’m sure there is another laundrey soap made for children’s sensitive skin! Thanks norah!

Annalisa I love these posts! I am a Virgo Sun but with Moon/Venus/Mars/MC in Leo. It is tricky because I relate so much to both signs but I think my Virgo wins out. Also my Scorpio rising complements Virgo more so whatever makes me look more serious/intense/pulled together is flattering. My Leo fun-loving side shows once I open my mouth! :)

I personally like the denim-on-denim look but it may not be flattering for me. Last summer I loved wearing my denim romper because it showed off my skin/hair in an understated way.

Knowing what sets off you skin is a highly senstive skill and one that is good to have! You sound as if you come back to your Virgo but need a bit of Leo in your style for some fun for you! I’d add a bit of Leo if I were you just to see if people see me more as who I am!
Thanks for your post! Thanks also for reading!
