Gravitating with peak popularity, Jasmine Dustin attended the premiere of "The Black Waters of Echo's Pond" in Los Angeles, California, on November 3, 2009. One of the first things you notice about Jasmine is her beautiful oval-shaped face, which allows her to wear her hair pulled back from her face and still look attractive.
Many have problems backcombing properly and end up with their hair looking like a rat's nest instead of a smooth coiffure. Some prefer to try their hand with a teasing brush or a teasing comb.
One of the biggest mistakes I've seen in backcombing is when people take a section of hair up in their hand, place the comb or brush in the middle of the section, and move it back and forth without taking it out of the hair. This method is a quick way to achieve split ends.
Here is how to do it: When you backcomb, you place the comb high at the top and push it gently down, then take the comb out and repeat until you have a fuzzy, knotty bush below. Then, take your brush or comb and gently smooth the top over. Lift your hair for height with the tail of a rat-tail comb or a large hairpin. Some prefer simple rat-tail combs for backcombing. As you test your tools, you'll discover what works best for you.
There is a golden tawny effect to Jasmine's skin tone, and she keeps her eyebrows arched in their natural, attractive thickness. She wears concealer with a light shadow blended over, thick eyeliner, lashes, and mascara. There is a light touch of bronze on her cheeks and forehead, and a light coral lip tint. She is wearing a black satin blouse with black slacks and a wide belt. Her accessories include a golden neck chain and a black-banded watch.
