If you don't want to put on any makeup, try some fake eyelashes. They make your eyes pop and give you a little confidence boost.

I do make a really great bolognese, and the key is putting good 'ol wine in there.
It's okay to be sad if things don't go the way you had hoped.
I worked as a belly dancer at a Greek restaurant senior year in high school.
I've always been that person who's struggled to find a swimsuit that I love.
I was always meant to be a mom. As soon as I had my kids, it just felt so natural.
My friends know I'm a really big movie buff, and I named Vivianne after a movie character. She was named after Vivianne Walker in 'Ya Ya Sisterhood.'
I work really hard, and have had many opportunities to give up and throw the towel in. But I never did.
Motherhood made me a better person.
I make Eric pick up from this little local place in Nashville that has really good honey whole wheat bread. It's near where he works out in the morning, so I make him pick up a loaf, and the kids eat it, too. I'll just keep passing out toast all morning. The kids just walk around with crumbs everywhere; we don't care.
For me, the best way to unwind at the end of the day while I'm pregnant is to take a nice, long soak. I get in my bathtub, download a show onto my computer, prop it up on a chair, and just lie there watching and relaxing.
I'm a firecracker when it comes to my husband. I'm a stand by my man kind of girl.
I feel better now after two children - I think I look better; I feel better.
I just love Italian, and I think, from being Italian, I just love Italian food.
You need to marry someone that is your soul mate, that you're obsessed with, and never ignore that.
I love to hit the gym when I can. I usually work out three times a week and do circuit training.
I think that people can have their hand in as many different things as they want. You've just got to put your mind to it and just do it.
I do voices. I can sound like a man or cartoon character. I also have very believable Spanish and English accents.
Taking a walk here and there and eating healthy is great. But I also feel like confidence and body image have a lot to do with how you feel on the inside.
What does get hard is when I'm put in the box of, 'Oh, she just woke up one day, did a reality show, and decided she wants to be a singer.' That's offensive, and it's not the case with me.
For me, I feel like I'm slowly accomplishing what I've always wanted to do. I've always dreamed really big, and my mom planted that in all three of my siblings: 'You guys can do anything.'
I don't want anyone to ever feel they are alone and no one likes them, or to feel as insecure as I did.
I watched 'Newlyweds' - that was my favorite reality show because I love Jessica Simpson. I'm obsessed with her.
'Gold' is about being appreciative and grateful of your life, your family, and the love in it.
I write in the weirdest places. I wrote 'Girl on the Coast' in my car with the kids in the back and Eric driving. I just wrote the whole thing on my phone. I just typed out the lyrics.
I think I get my alone time when I have to go fly and do a work trip. After work's done, I go check into my hotel, and I get to have a few hours to myself to order room service and just be quiet and silent.
I signed with Big Yellow Dog and have been with them for years. The president of the company is a woman named Carla Wallace, who is an amazing publisher who just has a knack for female artists.
Eric has pro athletes on both sides of his family - plus, I used to play sports - so I'm sure our son will develop athletic ability.
When you have kids, it can be hard sometimes because you've got to find creative ways to spend time with each other. So with 'Lights Down Low,' I wanted to just write about all the things that we do to try to keep the love alive in creative ways, because you can't always go out on a date... but you can make a date at home.
I really was bullied badly in school.
I moved all the time as part of a military family, and I just really did not have very many friends. I remember having these feelings of walking into a room and feeling that nobody likes me, or thinking, 'I'm going to have to sit alone at lunch again.'
Sometimes, men just need a little push. Men won't always be like, 'You are so beautiful. You look great today.' And sometimes women want to hear that.
I'll be honest: I naturally have a pretty good eyebrow shape. I always have. I would get made fun of when I was younger because they were so thick.
Being a mom has made me feel more like a grown-up. I was always a kid at heart. It makes me feel like I did my purpose in life.
If you walk into the room, and you're smiling and have a pep in your step, people are going to be drawn to you. If you walk into a room and you're sad and you look insecure, it's bad energy.
I love nursing my babies. It's such a special bond for me.
Having a family is just my fave altogether. I love having these babies that love you unconditionally. It's amazing to always have such strong love. I feel so fulfilled.
I always feel guilty when I want to go get my nails done or hair done because it takes time away, but I know moms need that alone time, too.
I always knew I was going to be a mommy, and because I came from a family of three kids, I always assumed I would have three!
I think if you're a good person and spread happiness, good things will come to you!
When you're pregnant, make sure your husband rubs your feet - and your neck and your back and everything.
If anything gets in the way of me being a good mom or wife, I simply say no.
When I was younger, I was relying on those young-girl genetics. I wasn't watching what I was eating or looking at nutrition. Now I'm paying attention, and my body is leaner. I'm healthier. I'm eating better. I'm just in better shape.
Every mom knows it's hard to take care of yourself while you're trying to take care of your children because, when you become a mother, you become so selfless.
I like to do heavy lifting, so it's a great thing to have meals that have a lot of protein to maintain that.
I just don't really like going to the gym that much, and I love eating.
I'm such a foodie.
Eric and I just don't have drama. We're very happy.
Every single sport works out your body in a different way, and you can almost point out their bodies - like, that's a swimmer, that's a football player.
I do have some songs where it is about my relationship with my husband, and it does get very personal.
