In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: While education, examination, and supervised experience are the most common things you need to do, each state has different requirements to obtain full licensure. Research these specific requirements very carefully. Material published by your state’s licensing board will be the most reliable guide. Complete all these requirements to ensure that you are legally recognized as a licensed professional counselor. Once you’re sure you’ve fulfilled all requirements, you need to fill out a formal application to receive your license. Research the application process in your state. In most cases, you will simply have to provide evidence -- such as exam results -- that you have completed the licensing requirements. You will then be granted your official license. Research the rules in your state about maintaining your counseling license. You will usually have to officially renew it periodically, and often you will have to take some continuing education courses to show that you’re up-to-date in your field. If anything about the licensing process is ever unclear to you, ask officials for help. Usually, you will be able to email or call your state’s licensing board to clarify anything or resolve any problems you may have.
Summary: Research any additional requirements for licensing in your state. Apply officially for your license. Maintain your license by renewing it and taking continuing education courses. Contact the licensing board in your state if you have any questions or problems.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Many cosmetic companies make temporary lip plumping products that use ingredients that temporarily swell the lips to make them look fuller. If you really want full lips, apply a clear lip plumper product to your lips before lining or applying lipstick.  Lip plumping products often cause a stinging sensation that some people find uncomfortable. It’s a good idea to test the product on a small area of your lip before applying it all over, especially if you have sensitive skin. You can find colored lip plumping products, such as glosses and lipsticks. If you use one of those, you can apply it just as you would a regular gloss or lipstick. Your lip liner is a powerful tool in creating the illusion of fuller lips. Instead of lining right at the edge of your lips, use the liner to define just beyond your natural lip line for added fullness.  For the fullest looking lips, use a lip liner in a shade that’s just a bit darker than your lipstick. That will help add major definition to your lips. Don’t fill in your lips with the liner. You want to keep the definition sharp along the outer edge. Because dark colors make things look smaller and light colors make items appear larger, avoid dark lipstick when you want your lips to look fuller. Instead, opt for a nude or other light colored lipstick, such as pink or peach. For extra fullness, consider blending two lipsticks that are a similar color but a shade or two apart. Apply the darker shade on the outer parts of your lips and the lighter color in the center, blending the edges with a lip brush for a seamless transition. To make your lips even fuller, top your lipstick with a gloss. The shiny finish of the gloss will reflect light and help your lips appear larger. Apply a clear lipgloss or a sheer shade that’s similar to your lipstick color. Using a gloss with a shimmery finish can add even more dimension to your lips to help them look fuller.
Summary: Start with a temporary lip plumper. Line just beyond your natural lip line. Apply a light or nude lipstick. Finish off your lips with a gloss.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: To write braille by hand you need a slate, stylus, and card-stock paper. These can be purchased easily online.  The stylus is a small device, usually a couple inches long. One side is a handle, the other is dull shaft of metal. The metal is pressed into the paper to create the protruding dots that comprise the braille alphabet. The slate is used to keep the dots precisely spaced into neat rows of appropriate distance from one another. It is composed of two pieces of metal, approximately the length of a page of paper, attached by a hinge. It is typically tall enough to include 4-6 rows of braille. Card-stock paper is a thick type of paper. When a stylus is applied to it, it will bend into an indention, rather than rip. Sandwich the paper between the two metal sheets of the slate. The slate should have several rows of cells with six holes each. Press the stylus through the holes of the slate to make dots in the appropriate patterns. When pushing the dots up, you are essentially writing on the back of the page. That means you need to use the stylus to write from right to left—as if writing a mirror image. Afterward, you flip the paper so that the braille reads normally, from left to right.
Summary:
Collect your tools. Clamp the slate around the paper and indent the paper with the stylus. Flip the page.
