Wishing for Makeover Games

How many of us have stared into the mirror in the morning and wished for some serious makeover games? I know that I’d love to have a team ready to take on the task of getting me ready for every day looking my best, but the fact of the matter is – I’m on my own. That doesn’t mean I can’t deal with my own makeover games, of course, it simply means I have to plan a bit differently to get myself pulled together in the best ways. For me, makeover games are a chance to improve what’s already there – I just need to take the time to do it.

The next time I’m feeling like a makeover game is in order, I’m going to start by waking up twenty minutes earlier. This gives me time to do things I might not otherwise do. I can shower, I can do some stretches, I can blow dry my hair. In my morning routine, I’ll be sure to wake up completely so that I’m comfortable putting in my contacts and applying a bit of make up. It’s interesting how much more aware and awake I feel when I’m pulled together. On the days that I go looking like I rolled out of bed, I feel that way much of the day. The few times I know I look good, I actually feel better, too. It’s definitely something to consider every morning of the week.

Makeover Games for Back to School

I love back to school shopping. It’s a nice way to get organized for the big return each fall, and it’s a great opportunity to play makeover games. After all, you want to look your best when you walk into the classroom for the first time each year, and this year will not be an exception. When you’re playing makeover games for back to school, always remember that you should be comfortable and professional in your clothing – especially if you’re required to wear a uniform.

Start your makeover game early in the summer by using your extra time to be more active. Go play outside and get busy moving and shaking. All that movement will help you shed a few pounds which will make all of your clothing fit more comfortably. As part of your makeover games, head to the salon for a new look. This is a perfect time to try on a new hairstyle or color since nobody has seen you since last year. Pick up a few new outfits in all of the back to school sales and you’re ready for the big day – your first of this year.

Makeover Games for Long Hair

I have long hair. There are times that I wish I could just run to the salon and ask them to lop it all off. I want to be cute and little with an adorable spiky haircut. Unfortunately, I’m not little. I’m very tall with broad shoulders. That means that cutting my hair ultra short will make my head look small. Or at least I think so. So for now I’m stuck with my longer hair. It gives my head a bit more balance and it is nice to be able to pull it back.

Long hair doesn’t last forever though unless you always wear it up. As you grow older, all the makeover games in the world can’t make you stop aging completely. Your face will show the signs of aging, of course, and having long hair hanging around your face actually pulls it down and makes you look older. So knowing that, I’m now thinking about the best time to do something with my own hair. I guess when I realize that I’m starting to look old I’ll get serious about a short haircut. When it that? Sixty? I have some time to grow still.

Makeover Games at the Mall

I haven’t been to the mall in ages, but I need to go because I’m desperately in need of a makeover. I love to play makeover games at the mall. The games are a nice way to delve into the current fashions and find things that really work on girls with tricky figures like mine. When you head to the mall to find some items to include in a makeover game, you might take along a friend for the fun of sharing the shopping experience, or you might go solo. Either way, you’ll be there to see what’s new and to have a great time in the process.

When I head to the mall as part of my makeover games, I try to find looks that I know are in style, but also work for my height and my build. I’m not petite or even especially thin, which appears to be the requirements for most stores in the mall. But fortunately there are plenty of stores available to those of us who need a bit of extra wiggle room in our clothing. These stores and styles let me have a great makeover game experience in the mall every year around this time.


 

The Case for Makeover Games

Makeover games might be a bit played out on television, but I don’t think they need to go away. Makeover games are the best way for all of us to see the sorts of things fashion experts know and the rest of us need to know. When you watch makeover games on television or over the computer, you see the shlumpy styles all of us fall into at times. These are thrown out in favor of a more tailored look that takes advantage of your best features and plays down your less attractive features.

The makeover games are all similar in the effect that they take someone who needs help and offers that help without any strings attached in most cases. The person is trotted around like a show pony, of course, but that’s not a huge problem for someone who just enjoyed a free makeover. Getting to the final results of a makeover game is exciting – an opportunity to demonstrate just how beautiful you can be when you’re dressing well and know it.

Makeover Games and Getting Crazy

Makeover games are a great way to go a bit crazy. There are so many wild, fun styles out there that you’ve probably never tried, but maybe you’ve thought about it before. Having some crazy makeover games lets you see just what you’d look like with purple hair or if you can handle fake eyelashes. Of course, you’ll want to be very careful with your makeover games and be sure that you’re not going to dye your hair purple right before a big family event that includes professional pictures, but having fun is part of the adventure.

Go to the drug store and just go crazy with the amount of stuff they have in the aisles. Look for (very) temporary hair dye and find some make up in shades you might not normally wear. Then take it all home and put it together. Put some temporary color in your hair and then do your make up over the top in a bold style. Since you’re playing at home rather than going out anywhere, there’s no reason to hold back. Try every style you want and see what exactly how it all pulls together. Who knows, you might find out that you really love a certain look more than you thought you would.
 

Makeover Games for Going Out

I love going out with friends. We head out to the different clubs and hot spots in the area, but the best fun of the whole thing is getting ready for the big adventure. Of course, since most fun dance places don’t get going until later at night, we take our time pulling our looks together. In fact, our prep routines are more like makeover games than anything else. When you go out to be surrounded by strangers, you have the freedom to experiment with your look and basically wear anything you want to wear without judgment.

The freedom of fashion choice is what makes makeover games for partying so much fun. You can start the process early in the day by going shopping. Buy yourself something new that is a bit different than you might otherwise wear. Then invite a friend over and spend hours putting on make up and doing something wild with your hair. Don’t be conservative – do something you’ve never done before and just have an adventure with your makeover games and your evening out.
