How to properly apply eye shadow

Avert eye shadow disaster. Know tips to apply this makeup tool in the right way.

Tips

Apply primer beneath your eye shadow. It highlights the color more and makes it long-lasting. It will keep your eye makeup fresh till the end of the day.

Use the right makeup brush. A wrong brush can completely mar your makeup. Invest in superior quality brushes. Please don’t forget to keep them in top condition by cleaning and storing them properly.

Blend and blend. Start with three distinct shades. Use the first as base, the second as highlighter, and the third as main color. Use the lightest shade all over your lids as base, up to the brow. Apply the next dark shade from the outer part of your eye along its crease. Use the darkest shade in a “V” shape beginning from the outer eye corner. Blend in such a way that you cannot make out where one shade ends and another starts.

Always use a light hand while applying eye shadow. Also know the thumb rule: less is more. It is easier to add color than wipe off the whole thing and start all over.

Never use dark shade on your brow bone. It gives you the drag queen look.

In case you got fine lines or wrinkles around your eyelids, avoid glitter eye shadows. They highlight creases. Use matte colors.

Last but not the least; if you choose to go with deep red lips, please leave your eyes subtle. Another thumb rule: highlight eyes OR lips, not both!

How to Use Gold in Makeup

The warmth of gold makes almost all skin tones glow; but who says that gold is only for the face and eyes? You can give your nails and lips a gold wash too!

Nails

Straight metallics are great for nail. Add a bit of glitter to make perfect hands for the party. Glide a shimmery gold nail polish on your nails and dust on loose gold glitter. Finish off by applying a clear top coat to “trap” the gold dust.

Lips

You may have hardly thought of wearing gold on your pout, but try this. Layer your favorite lip color with a gold gloss. It adds a mystical charm to your lips.

Eyes

Dusting sheer gold eyeshadow over neutral eye makeup renders a warm hue to the palette, or you may use sparkling gold eyeliner at lower and upper lash lines.

Face

Use a highlighter or bronzer with flecks of gold in it. It renders your complexion a lovely golden glow. For a sun-kissed look, add a dash of golden bronzer to your brow bones and cheekbones.

Gold never goes out of style. Be it a shimmering gold dress or a metallic pair of shoes; this yellow metal adds “weight” to your ensemble. Be careful not to make a big fashion faux pas of going all gold from head to toe.

Using gold can be tricky. If you are using it on your face, skip that complete gold dress. The idea is to highlight gold, not letting it flow all over you!

Makeup for Evening Party Straight from Office

If you are a party animal, you may often find yourself heading straight from the office to the evening’s soiree. This calls for getting ready in a flash. Who has the time for a complete face makeover? Just follow the tips below and catch the spotlight in every party.
  • Wear a long-lasting foundation right in the morning. This saves you time to start from scratch in the evening. Get one with a matte finish.
  • Use a long-lasting eyeshadow primer. It preps up your eyelids and keep your eyeshadow and eyeliner in place throughout the day and night. Just like you apply primers, apply this one too before makeup.
Touch-ups are important when you are on the run the whole day and after. No need for refreshing the full face. Touching up your eyes, lips, and cheeks is enough to perk up your face.
  • Quickly dust on some blush to create lovely, rosy cheeks in seconds.
  • Use bold red for your pout for the evening. Use lip liner to avoid running of color and to make your lip color last through the night.
  • For touching up your foundation, dust some loose powder on your face.
  • Before that, freshen up your skin by blotting away excess oil using a blotting sheet. You may use a facial mist too.
  • Don’t forget to touch up your eyes. If you have used a neutral tone eyeshadow in the morning, it helps to give a base for layering. You can apply metallic shadow or do smokey eyes, glaming up the look.
Remember; if you want to highlight your eyes, keep your lips subtle. If you are going for bold red lips, keep your eyes mild.

Check yourself in the mirror. You are ready to rock the party!

Why You Need the BB Cream for Your Skin

We all love adding new things to our makeup kit but it is also important to keep removing stuff we no longer use. Keeping your makeup organized can save you time, especially on occasions when you have to rush out on a short notice.

One item that’s making its way into the makeup bag of most women in recent times is the BB cream. The product is an all-in-one multi-tasking cream that does lots more than just reduce the appearance of lines, age spots and wrinkles. There are ingredients that keep your skin hydrated while concealing the blemishes and protecting it from the harsh elements.

If your skin feels irritated and dry, then the BB cream is highly recommended because it contains a special blend of plant extracts to calm and soothe the skin. You can feel the lift and the firmness it provides your skin as it makes the skin brighter and better moisturized. The appearance of fine lines and winkles get diminished to a considerable extent as the Vitamin C present in the formulation helps stimulate collagen production. Collagen is our skin’s own regenerative process.

If you are stressed for time and your morning hours is a mad rush as you multi-task and juggle to finish a dozen things at a time, get the BB cream to multi-task for you. It delivers results faster and without any adverse effects. It is fast climbing the popularity charts as one of the hottest beauty products in Asia. Reclaim you youthfulness in one simple step.
