MAKEUP TIPS THAT CHANGE YOUR FACE
Let’s take a look at practical makeup tips that change your face together!
Create a bold eyebrow
A thick brow, even without makeup, instantly gives you a strong and clean look. If brows are patchy, filling them in with a pencil can make a bigger difference than you think. When purchasing, buy an eyebrow pencil one shade lighter than your actual eyebrow color, otherwise it will not look natural.
Use lip liner
Even the most expensive lipstick can look cheap when it spills out of line. Did you know that you can apply a light lip liner without even using lipstick to get a fuller look? Use a lip liner that is the same shade as your lip color or slightly darker.
Highlight your cheekbones
The illuminator can make a big difference. Take a highlighter that matches your skin tone and apply it along the highest part of the cheekbones, from under the iris to your hairline. This adds a youthful and fresh glow instead of blush that can make you look old.
longer eyelashes
Forget heavy eyeshadow, lengthening your lashes with a thin black mascara will make your eyes appear brighter, wider and more awake. Apply a thin layer to avoid clumping.
Replace sponges with brushes
Sponges absorb bacteria and other germs, unlike brushes that can be washed weekly. Brushes are surprisingly effective for foundation and concealer. If you’re using a sponge, try to keep it for single-use applications only.
Use highlighter on your lips
Just a little bit of highlighter in the middle of your upper and lower lip will make them look bigger. If you want Kylie lips, all you need is to replace the lip gloss with liquid illuminator.
Green primer to correct tonal differences
Skin tone differences are a common skin problem for humans. A colored primer can work wonders, especially if it has a red undertone. Green primer corrects red areas, making your skin look great even without foundation.
Avoid pressed powder
Many women apply pressed powder after foundation. Instead, use a makeup setting powder or, better yet, a setting spray. This will fix the look and provide a matte finish to shiny and oily areas. You can even add a drop of setting powder to your regular foundation.
Hide lipstick cracks with lip gloss
Do you suffer from irregularities and cracks caused by lipstick? Get rid of dry looks by layering on a lip gloss of a similar shade. The additional shine will also make your lips look fuller and wetter than ever before.
Use eyeliner in different colors
People think more is an exaggeration when it comes to achieving a dramatic eye look, but the key is actually to change the colors. So you can get a new and fresh effect. Black eyeliner can look sharp, so if you want to soften things up, go gray instead. Use a brown shade for the smoky eye.
Brighten your eyes with a white pencil
If you look tired but don’t want your insomnia to be noticed, white eyeliner is what you need. For an energetic look, lightly apply a white pencil to the corners of your eyes. It’s a great alternative if you don’t want to use under-eye concealer.
Exfoliate your lips
No matter what lip product you use, it looks flawed when you apply it on dry and chapped lips. Make sure to remove that dead skin with a lip scrub. You can even make this at home with coconut oil and rock salt or brown sugar.
Find the right foundation by testing it on the neck instead of the arm
The worst make-up you can do is fake, use a foundation that is too dark or light for your skin tone. We’ve always been told to color test the inside of our arms, but our face and body sometimes turn out to be different hues due to sun exposure, so it’s best to test the colors on your neck for better accuracy.
Avoid matte
If you have a problem with oiliness, do not run towards matte. This mistake can make skin (especially mature skin) more dull and paler. Instead, always use fluid, sheer products that add sparkle and moisture.
