If you choose adding a bit of golden touch to your face (we used Guerlain Let Meteorites Dorees to highlight Aliona’s cheekbones), make sure your skin is in prime condition, because shimmer will accentuate every little flaw. Exfoliate and moisturise your skin properly before applying a shimmery highlighter or a powder. “When your face is clear and glowing, makeup will look better”, adds Julie Redfern.

And best part is that you don't have to resemble an Oscar statue to complement bold eye: Julie Redfern suggests applying a lighter pink wash as a blush. “Pink is already beige-y type of color. It will add you a pop of color, which is essential when you go for gold”, recommends Julie. Liner is truly optional, but not mascara! Finish your look with black mascara, and for maximum impact, attach a set of gorgeous golden eyelashes. Add a touch of muted golden loose powder to center of your forehead and on apples of your cheeks. Keep rest of face neutral – apply a shiny pink sheer gloss, and you look like a million bucks!

Q: How do I order my free credit report from 3 major credit bureau`s? A: You may order your free credit reports from each of three nationwide credit bureau`s at same time, or you can order from only one or two. The law allows you to order one free copy from each of nationwide credit reporting companies every 12 months.

Q: What information do I have to provide to get my free credit reports? A: You need to provide your name, address, Social Security number, and date of birth.

If you have moved in last two years, you may have to provide your previous address.

To maintain security of your file, each nationwide credit bureau`s may ask you for some information that only you would know, like amount of your monthly mortgage payment.

Each company may ask you for different information because information each has in your file may come from different sources. The nationwide credit reporting companies will not send you an email asking for your personal information. If you get an email or see a pop-up ad claiming it’s from any of three nationwide consumer reporting companies, do not reply or click on any link in message it’s probably a scam.

Forward any email that claims to be from any of three credit bureau`s to FTC’s database of deceptive spam at spam@uce.gov. Any of three credit bureau`s also will not call you to ask for your personal information.
