Makeup tips!!!!

Here are some makeup tips, old and new, which I picked up from various sources- magazines, makeup artists & my own experience:

• If you don't want length on your bottom lashes, apply gel liner on them instead of mascara. 

• Apply some loose powder with a fan brush or a puff on your under eye area while using dark eyeshadows or shimmery eyeshadows, so your base won't be ruined if there's fallout. You can just dust it all off with a powder brush when you're done.

• Tearing up while applying mascara or liner but don't want the tears to roll down and spoil your makeup? Just press a Q-tip (ear bud) right on your tear ducts. The tears will be absorbed immediately. Do this when you use eye drops too.

• My new favorite way of applying mascara to extend my short lashes & curl them at the same time: Place the brush at the roots of your lashes, and start rolling the wand (away from my cheek), keep rolling till it reaches the tips of your lashes. Repeat until you have evenly coated all your lashes.

• What's your natural blush shade? Squeeze your fingertip (a little above the line), the increase in blood flow will make the tips look pinker. That's the color that will look most natural on your cheeks.

I will keep posting makeup & beauty tips every now and then.

How to make your lipstick stay on longer !!!!

How to make your lipstick last longer !!!!

Step 1. Apply lip balm when you are preparing the base your your face such as

moisturizing. This gives an ample time for the lip balm to soak in your lips. 

If the lip balm hasn’t soaked in fully, just lay a tissue on your lips, move your fingers on tissue and blot any excess.



Step 2  : Take a similar shade of liner as your lipstick. Line and fill in your lips with a lip liner.

Step 3: Fill in your lipstick.

  

Step 4: Lay a clean tissue on your lips. Take loose or pressed powder on your powder brush and swipe it all over the tissue. Remove the tissue. This will blot your lipstick in without making your lips powdery or taking away the colour of your lipstick.

Step 5: Apply another coat of lipstick and follow up with a lip gloss.
