Article: With such a wide range of color options, it can be difficult to choose the perfect shade. To help you narrow down your selection, look into the colors that are most likely to flatter your skin tone. For skin with cool undertones like pink, red, or blue, choose lip colors with blue- or purple-shaded undertones. Skin types with warm undertones (such as yellow, gold, or olive) are best complimented by warm lip colors like red and orange. Neutral-toned skin generally can pull off any color. Makeup artist Bobbi Brown says that your best shade is one or two shades darker than your natural lip color. When finding a lip color that suits you, think about what your style is and what kind of look you're going for. For a natural look, choose flesh tones such as soft pinks, nudes, tans, and browns. For a bright look, go for pops of red, orange, and bright pink that will stand out. To achieve an edgier look, choose colors like dark wine, purple, brown, and black. For a quirky, playful effect, try neons, blues, greens, pastels, and metallics. Lip color comes in a wide variety of finishes and textures, such as sheer, matte, semi-matte, cream, satin, glossy, liquid, stain, and tint. If you're looking for a shiny, glimmering effect, try cream and satin lipsticks as well as lipgloss. These products catch the light and draw attention to your lips. For a smooth, shine-less effect, try sheer and matte liquid lipsticks as well as lip stains and tints. These products are more color intensive and tend to last longer but dry your lips out faster. Layer gloss over matte products if you want a little extra shine. Avoid shimmer, as metallic pigments can make your color look cheap. Instead, look for formulas that naturally shine and reflect light.

Remove from oven and allow to cool before serving. Enjoy the cinnamon sticks.
Article: Almond trees won't thrive if they are not planted in a location with less than 6-8 hours of sunlight each day. They also need soil with good drainage. If you notice that the soil where you plan to plant the almond trees frequently forms puddles, try adding peat or sand to the soil before planting the trees. When the tree has been planted, the soil should come up to the already-existing soil line that's present on most nursery-grown almond trees. If you're planning to plant more than 1 almond tree, space the individual trees out by 1520 feet (4.66.1m). If you plant the almond trees too closely together, their branches and roots may collide with those of the adjacent trees. If the trees' roots are bundled up, unpack them a little before planting the tree. Also take care to not bend or damage the tree's large taproot when you plant it. To ensure that your almond tree grows well, pour 23 cups (470710mL) of water over the roots before planting. Pour another 2-3 buckets of water over the almond tree once it's planted to ensure the roots remain moist. If your almond tree hasn't received any rain for 14 days (2 weeks), take it upon yourself to water the tree. Rather than drenching it with water, turn a garden hose on to release a trickle of water, and set the end of the hose at the base of the tree. Let the hose run until the ground is soaked. After the first 2 years, your almond tree will not need to be watered any more, unless it undergoes severe drought conditions. While the trees are dormant, you can remove unneeded branches without damaging the almond trees. Use a sharp pair of garden shears to lop off any branches that are dead or broken, or that have bent to grow towards the tree's center. Prune branches near the center of each almond tree so air and light can get through. Your almond trees will need to mature for 2-4 years before they begin producing almonds. . The almonds themselves will grow inside of large, wood-colored hulls. They'll be ready to harvest once the hulls have opened completely on their own. Shake the tree in order to knock the almond hulls to the ground. Once the nuts have fallen, leave them on the ground for 2 or 3 days to dry out. You'll need a good nutcracker for this part of the harvesting process. Snap the hull open until you can extract the almond shell. Then, crack open the shells until the almond nut itself emerges. Store the almonds in an airtight container or plastic bag. Keep the nuts in your pantry or a kitchen cabinet.

Choose a location with full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Dig a hole deep enough to accommodate the tree's root structure. Spread out the roots when placing the almond tree in the ground. Water the young almond tree by letting water trickle from a hose. Prune almond trees in the winter. Harvest the almonds in the fall by knocking them from the trees Pry the shells from the hull, and pry the nuts from the shell.
