- The
Beauty Department recommends
applying foundation with downward strokes, rather than upward
strokes. By brushing down, you help hide the peach fuzz on your
cheeks.
2
- Harper’s
Bazaar recommends
applying foundation first and concealer second. If you do this,
you’ll find that you need to use less concealer.
3
- After you’ve applied lip color, Lauren
Conrad suggests
covering your lips with light paper and powdering over the paper. A
light sprinkle of powder will come through the paper, locking the
color in.
4
- To instantly lift your eyes, The
Beauty Department recommends
drawing an arch above your eyebrow with a highlighter and then
lightly blending it in.
5
- To make your eyelashes look more full and voluptuous, Top
Inspired suggests
dusting your eyelashes with baby powder before applying mascara.
6
- Makeup
Geek suggests
highlighting the inner and outer corners of your eye. This technique
is flattering for most eye shapes.
7
- Her
Campus recommends
using white eyeliner rather than black. This will make your eyes look
wider and brighter.
8
- Cosmopolitan points
out that you can turn your regular eyeshadow into a glossy shadow by
adding lip balm as a top layer.
9
- For winged eyeliner: Place your pen at the outermost part
of your nostril, then angle it upwards to meet the outer edge of your
eye. Lower the tip of your liner where it lands and draw down
toward your lash line.
10
- For a cheaper alternative to
makeup brushes: Use paint brushes as makeup brushes. Many
paint brushes are shaped similar to makeup brushes, and many
companies (like Royal & Langnickel) make makeup brushes in
addition to paint brushes. Lots of craft stores have weekly coupons
you can use to lower the price, and the brushes themselves go on sale
constantly. It’s a great way to get some good brushes at a more
reasonable price point.
11
- For girls with glasses:If you wear glasses, use a colored eyeliner
on your lower lash line and black on the top. It makes your eyes
really stand out from behind your frames!
12
- To make your eyelashes grow: Before you go to bed, put Vaseline on
your eyelashes. It’ll help them grow and make them look
great!
13
- Put on your foundation AFTER doing your eye makeup. Especially
if you’re doing winged liner. This way, you can erase all your
mistakes until it’s perfect! It also allows you to wipe off any eye
shadow that fell under your eyes.
14
- Put your makeup on in front of a close-up mirror with natural
light. This way, you can see what it really looks like.
15
- Use bronzer in the shape of the number “3” along the side of
your face. With the top of the 3 at your hair line, the bottom
at your jaw line, and the middle part just under your cheekbones.
This is the easiest way of thinking of contouring.
