WEIGHT A MINUTE Make-up whizz leaves people stunned after showing how she can 'lose' half a stone with just THREE products
A MAKE-UP whizz has left people stunned after showing how she can make herself look half a stone lighter through the clever application of just three products.
Sam is skilled when it comes to her cosmetic application, and has figured out where to place her products to dramatically alter look.

In a video on her TikTok page, Sam began by applying a bronzer stick high on her cheekbone on one side of her face - the side that would show her looking almost half a stone (3kg) lighter.
On the other side, she put it under the cheekbone.
Blusher was next, as Sam put it above the bronzer on the -3kg side, the left, before putting it on the apple of her cheek on the other.

She finished off with concealer.
On the left she put a horizontal line from the corner of her mouth, and another from the side of her nostril.
She then put it under the corner of her inner eye, and underneath the wing.
On the other side, she applied a generous amount of concealer in a triangle shape beneath the eye.

Sam then blended the make-up together, and showed just how different the application positions made her look.
Unsurprisingly, the comments section was filled with people stunned by Sam's make-up talent.
"Power of make up," one wrote.
I tried the viral '53 method' to banish my 'chins' without going under the knife and the results were astonishing
"It's crazy, make-up is magic," another said.
"Witch! Looks amazing!" a third praised.

"Wow the power of make-up," someone else said.
"The +3kg make up looks better on you," another commented.
"The +3kg look is much more charming, more human, and warm," someone else said.
"The -3kg look is plastic, and cold."
Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using
Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using.
A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines.
A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion.
The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin's appearance and texture.
SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone's daily skincare routine.
Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun's UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin's texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer.
Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection.
Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation.
I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair's moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.
However, others insisted the only reason Sam looked so different on either side of her face was because the two sides were different in the first place.

"It's not just make-up," one insisted.
"Her face is different on each side!"
"Wait no this is asymmetrical facial features," another wrote, adding: "That really had my brain in a twist for a solid minute!"
"It's the position of the heavy eye liner on the left," a third insisted.
"Wait is it just me or is one eye higher than the other?" someone else asked.

"No hate though! You're really pretty!"

I love glamming up my girl for nursery, trolls tell me her outfit is totally inappropriate but I don't see the issue

The mum explained her daughter 'loves the nail shop' NO KIDDING I love glamming up my girl for nursery, trolls tell me her outfit is totally inappropriate but I don't see the issue SENDING your little one for their first day at the nursery or school is a huge milestone for millions of parents. But now one mum has come under fire after sharing the outfit her daughter was wearing ahead of the big day. 2 The mum sparked fury after she showed off her daughter's outfit for the first day of nursery Credit: TikTok/@kytoyouu 2 The little girl, who is between the ages of four and five, was also rocking a brand new mani covered in gems Credit: TikTok/@kytoyouu The mother, only known as @kytoyouu, took to TikTok to share the proud moment - however, the video quickly sparked a fierce reaction. In the now-viral video, the little girl, who is between the ages of four and five, could be seen showing off her freshly-done manicure. The glam mani included French tips, as well as a huge variety of gems glued on top of the nails. All chuffed with her brand new manicure, the girl then struck her best poses, as she modelled her clothes. Giving the viewers an adorable spin, the excited child showed off her baby blue button-up shirt which was teamed up with beige flares. Matching the flares was also a mega bow tie, as well as two scrunchies on her wrist. ''Kindergarten, please be kind to my baby,'' the mum said in the video. But while the little girl looked adorable, the clip soon went viral for all the wrong reasons, amassing more than 2.8million views. As over 10,000 people flooded to comments to share their thoughts, critics slammed the mother and dubbed the outfit 'inappropriate'. One viewer said: ''dress her appropriately to her age.. it's not that difficult.'' Mums slam Molly-Mae after she refuses to discipline Bambi for biting a child & accuse her of using toddler as 'ragebait' Someone else agreed, writing: ''🤨 Acrylics or even press ons in kindergarten is crazy. ''Just messing up that baby nail beds & they not even fully developed. ''Kids play & are rough so I hope she don't hit them nails on something.'' What age can you take kid to get their nails done? MUMS have sparked controversy after allowing their kids to get acrylic nails. But just how old do they have to be to be allowed to get them done legally. According to the National Occupational Standards, anyone under the age of 16 has to be accompanied by an adult. They also need written consent from a parents or guardian. It's also a good idea to check that the salon you're planning to go to - just to ask if they offer services to children. A horrified social media user said: ''Can we PLEASE let kids be KIDS.'' ''She's going to school not the club,'' another critic mum-shamed the TikToker. Luckily for the mum - who said her daughter ''loves the nail shop'' - there were also a few of those who didn't see an issue with the outfit. A fellow mum wrote: ''Let a girl be a girl!! My daughter is 7 and I take her get her nails done! Anything that makes her happy!'' ''y'all act like she got stilletto nails and heels on, girl please,'' someone else hit back at the harsh critics.

Love Islander ‘hard launches new girlfriend' on TikTok after hooking up on rival show – but fans slam ‘showmance'

ALL IT SEEMS? Love Islander 'hard launches new girlfriend' on TikTok after hooking up on rival show – but fans slam 'showmance' LOVE Island star Scott van der Sluis has fans convinced he's got a new girlfriend after another reality show stint – despite walking off from her on screen. The Welsh reality star has been keeping himself busy with a string of dating shows across the years, with the latest being Netflix's Perfect Match. 5 Scott and Juliette looked close as they danced together for a TikTok 5 The pair sparked a connection on Perfect Match – but their romance soon collapsed Advertisement 5 Despite ending the show on a bad note, the pair not look extremely close The series – which puts former reality stars into a house to compete in challenges and spark romantic connections with each other – saw Scott form a connection with Siesta Key's Juliette Porter, going on dates together and heavily flirting. However, their romance spectacularly blew up when Love Island USA's Carrington Rodriguez told him she had slated their connection to him, saying Scott was "too immature" for her. Rather than confront her, Scott and Carrington opted to immediately walk off the show together – in the process ensuring Juliette would be axed from the show as well, as you can only remain in the house if you're in a couple. Advertisement However, nearly a year after the show was filmed, it seems the pair have healed their connection, performing a TikTok together on Juliette's socials. Surrounded by other members of the Perfect Match cast, including Carrington, the duo were seen passionately lipsyncing to Beyoncé's Tyrant to each other outside a bar. With Juliette having a drink in her hand, she at one point pulls Scott's head to her chest, and he responds by grabbing her face, seemingly trying to pull in for a kiss she pulls away from. Although the TikTok was posted five days before the finale – which saw their dramatic fallout – fans are unconvinced that they're now a couple. Advertisement "after watching the finale and now seeing this, i'm just laughing so hard," wrote one. "Scott will do anything for attention," wrote a second, while a third said: "You deserve each other and I mean that in the worst way possible." However others thought they were "made to be a couple", with one noting: "They have to be dating as he's had a style upgrade". Love Island fans 'work out' show star is 'in talks for The Traitors series 3' after he accidentally drops massive clue "Please, I need them together," added a third. Scott is yet to confirm any new romance since the end of Perfect Match, which ended last week. Advertisement However, he has announced that he's "retiring" from dating shows after appearing on Love Island, Love Island USA, Love Island Games and now Perfect Match. Celebrating the finale, he wrote on Instagram: "Anywaysss after 4 TV shows, trips to Fiji, Mallorca and Mexico, and 2 years of incredible memories, it's finally time to say SCOTTISHA IS RETIRED. "Peace out people, hope you all enjoyed the journey. ✌️" 5 Their Perfect Match romance ended when Juliette said Scott was immature 5 Scott has revealed he is now 'retired' from reality dating shows

‘Skibidi', ‘delulu' and ‘tradwife' among words added to Cambridge Dictionary

'Skibidi', 'tradwife' and 'delulu' are among the new words to have made this year's Cambridge Dictionary in a selection that confirms the increasing influence of the TikTok generation on the English language. For those hoping that such neologisms would be a passing internet craze, the compilers of the dictionary say they are here to stay. 'Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the dictionary,' said its lexical programme manager, Colin McIntosh. 'It's not every day you get to see words like 'skibidi' and 'delulu' make their way in to the Cambridge Dictionary. We only add words where we think they'll have staying power.' Older generations and those not on TikTok will have to just get used to words such as skibidi. Children often use it to add emphasis to statements. It became popular thanks to Skibidi Toilet – a viral animated video that began on YouTube featuring human heads protruding from lavatories. The Cambridge Dictionary defines skibidi as 'a word that can have different meanings such as 'cool' or 'bad', or can be used with no real meaning as a joke; an example of its use is: 'What the skibidi are you doing?'' People older than generation Alpha tend to greet the use of the word with despair. The US writer and artist Lee Escobedo wrote in the Guardian earlier this year: 'Skibidi brainrot encapsulates a generation fluent in irony but starved for meaning. This kind of hyper-chaotic media serves as both entertainment and an ambient worldview for young men raised online. Their minds normalise prank-as-expression.' The tradwife phenomenon, which dates to a least 2020, has also been widely criticised. It refers to socially conservative influencers who celebrate looking after their husbands, children and homes and post about it on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. The dictionary definition says a tradwife is 'especially one who posts on social media'. [ Here is an experiment. If you know a child under 14, ask them if they know what skibidi toilet is Opens in new window ] Delulu, an abbreviation of delusional, is less controversial, but has become associated with a post-truth world where personal beliefs are more important than reality. Its dictionary entry defines it as 'believing things that are not real or true, usually because you choose to'. Delulu emerged more than 10 years ago as an insult directed at obsessive K-pop fans to question their belief that they would date their idols. The term 'delulu is the solulu' for manifesting your wishes has been viewed billions of times on TikTok. The phrase 'delulu with no solulu' was used earlier this year by Australia's prime minister, Anthony Albanese, to attack his opponents in parliament. 'Broligarchy', a term for the tech industry leaders on whose platforms many of these new words are spreading, also makes it in to the dictionary. '' Merging 'bro' and 'oligarchy', it refers to 'a small group of men, especially men owning or involved in a technology business, who are extremely rich and powerful, and who have or want political influence,' says the dictionary. Other new entries in the dictionary include 'mouse jiggler', a post-pandemic device or piece of software used to make it seem as though you are working when you are not. 'Work spouse', meanwhile, is a phrase for workplace relationships where two people help and trust each other, according to the dictionary.
