Simple Solutions to Recover From Cosmetic Makeup Disasters!

Have you ever bought makeup that looks great at the store only to get it home and find it makes us look more ghoulish than gorgeous? Of course you have, but is the only alternative to toss it? No! And here is how you can easily recover…

To soften a blinding shade of blusher, start by applying a more neutral-colored blush such as tawny brown, which creates a natural-looking flush on most skin tones. Then add a pop of the bright color on top. To make it brighter, first sweep the blah blush over the apples of your cheeks; then tap the tops of your cheekbones with your most vibrant shade of pink blush.

Foundation can easily be made darker, just apply the foundation as you usually would and then dust a little powder bronzer onto your cheeks, forehead and chin using a large blush brush — the coppery tones will help add warmth and depth. Another option: Create a richer color by mixing a small amount of foundation with a drop of gel bronzer in your palm. To make it lighter, dilute the color by mixing it in your hand with a squirt of untinted facial moisturizer.

After filling in lips with a too-loud shade of lipstick, just top it with a neutral beige lipstick. Continue layering on the beige until you reach your desired tone. Create a more intense, matte version of a lackluster lipstick by first lining and filling in your kisser with a lip liner that’s at least two shades deeper than the lipstick. Then apply the lipstick and a deeper shade of gloss for sheen and much fuller and poutier lips.

To soften the color of eyeshadow, start by sweeping lids with a taupe-tone shadow or a pale yellow powder. Then apply a light coat of the blaring color. If it’s still too intense, add another layer of the lighter shade. Or if the shadow is bright green, blue or violet, you can use it as an eyeliner to softly define just your upper lids. Then to darken the color, dampen your eye shadow brush beforehand, which will intensify the hue.

Following these simple tips will mean no more makeup buying disasters and a much happier and more beautiful you!

Learn to Turn Heads With These Simple Makeup Tips

There are many girls, teenagers and women who do not wear makeup or don’t know how to wear makeup. It’s true that if you step into a drugstore, it can be daunting looking over all those makeup brands and products. For those of you who are new to makeup, there are a couple of makeup staples to have as well as makeup brushes to use. With just a few makeup items under your belt, you can go from flirty to seductress in minutes.

Before getting any makeup products, it’s important to find a good skin care regimen. Make sure you have a face wash, clarifying toner, moisturizer, makeup remover, and blemish cream. Anything you put on your face should be oil-free and be noncomedogenic so as to not cause any breakouts.

Makeup essentials include purchasing a light-weight foundation, a rosy blush in powder or cream, a mascara, and eyeliner in black or brown and neutral eye shadows. For lip color, you can purchase a tinted lip moisturizer, or get a lip gloss in a berry color. With these simple makeup products, you can have a subtle but put together day look.

For a night look, go with a smokey eye shadow duo and some liquid eye liner. These two products will smoke out your eyes and transform your day eye shadow into a dazzling night eye shadow.

Practice a bit on applying each product to see what you like. If you have an even skin tone and few break outs, your can get away with just applying mascara, eye liner, and some lip gloss. For those who have an uneven skin tone and more than a few breakouts, foundation will help smooth and even out your skin. You can set your makeup with a translucent powder once your are finished.

Over time you can experiment with different lip colors, concealers and primers and bronzers, and before you know it you will be turning heads without even trying.

Simple Eye Makeup Tips

Want to amp up your daytime look to a night time look? Maybe change the shape of your eyes while at it? Check out the tips we have to offer.

Remember the make up that you choose for your eyes should emphasize the natural color of your eyes. With smoky eyes the must have for all nighttime looks, its easy to do it once you have the basics down. There is so many things that you can do with your eyes by using the right makeup.

Just take the time to figure out what works for you. Remember if the color of the month doesn’t look good on you, don’t bother buying it!

Amp up your daytime look to evening? Try this tip:

Using your favorite shade on the lid, from the lash line to the crease. Its time to go slightly darker than your daytime color, unless you have very deep set eyes. By adding shadowing you can add more depth to your eyes.

If possible remove the eye shadow that you used during the day or go for a darker shade.

Load your makeup brush with a darker shade and press the color into the crease moving from outer to the inner corner.

Blend the deeper shade so that it extends a bit above and below the crease.

Line the upper and lower lash lines with a pencil or liquid eyeliner. If using a pencil smudge it along the lash line top and bottom to deepen your smoky look.

If you already have mascara on, reapply it on the outer corner lashes to darker them. If you do not have mascara on yet, apply it lightly, then apply your Magic Lash to enhance your lashes and make them look thicker. Then reapply your mascara over your Magic Lash to make your eyelashes lush and totally out there! Must have for all smoky eyes.

If you want to make your eyes look a little more rounder, try this tip:

To make your eyes look rounder, add eye shadow to both the upper and lower lids.Another way to do this is to use an eye liner and outline the base of your lashes.

If you want to make your eyes look a little more oval, try this tip:

To make your eyes look more oval draw a line at the base of your lashes thickening the line slightly in the middle.

Eyes to close together? Try this tip:

To make your eyes look further apart start your eyeliner line away from the inner corner of your eye and make it slightly thicker towards the outer edge, extending it in a slightly upward stroke.

Eyes to far apart? Try this tip:

To make your eyes appear closer together you are virtually creating the opposite illusion to what you did to make your eyes look further apart. In this case the eyeliner would be slightly thicker at the inner corner of the eye and you would stop the line at the outer edge feathering it off slightly thinner.

Don’t forget that if you are trying these tips, take your time to see what works for you and what may not. Your eyes are the windows to your soul they say, what give them a party to see?
