Using Liquid EyelinerA lot of people try to avoid using liquid eyeliner. It can get messy, and if your hand isn’t too steady, it just won’t look pretty. Well here are some easy tips on how anyone can use liquid eyeliner and make it look perfect too! Liquid eyeliner defines your eyes more and give it a bold, dramatic look. Make sure you have the right eyeliner brush: a small, pointed sable brush. Also remember to make the line thicker near the outer corners of the eye. Start off by gently pulling the outer corner of your eye away from your nose with your index finger. Get as close to the lid as you can....

Define Your EyesAs most people say, the eyes are the windows to the soul. Defining your eyes will make them stand out in their natural beauty. Start off by choosing two neutral eye shadows. Make sure these colors match as you will later blend them in together. Remember, eye shadow blending is everything. Apply both shadows to your entire lid area and blend well. Apply a shimmer shadow, or even a cream shadow over the two colors. This will brighten up your eyes. Apply a thin line of eyeliner in black, kohl, navy, brown, khaki or plum. To do this flawlessly, gently pull the outer corner of your eye outward, for...

Party MakeupYour makeup should always be light during the day and more dramatic at night. That is, if you’re gonna go out of course. During the day makeup should always be natural looking, and never overly done. It should be tasteful and simple. Makeup during the night however, is a totally different thing. It’s makeup you can have fun with, and that you can experience with. Party makeup is dramatic makeup, and here’s how to get the ultimate party look. Apply a good foundation that’s one tone darker than your skin. This will ensure that all your imperfections are well hidden. Next,...

Red LipstickYou might think red lipstick is too 80’s and too tacky, but it’s all the rage this season. Not only does it look fabulous on everyone, but it also adds tons of confidence and sex appeal. Now this doesn’t mean that you should sport this hue anywhere, anytime. Red lipstick should be reserved for nights out, and not for working out. When wearing red lipstick, stay clear of too much eye makeup. A nude eyeshadow with a little bit of eyeliner and mascara is enough. Red is a very dramatic colour so you have to be careful how you wear it. Either way, red lipstick put you in center st...

The Perfect MakeupSo what exactly is the perfect makeup? And what is the right amount of makeup? A recent study on women and makeup was done, with results proving that men are actually more attracted to women that have full makeup on, but not overly done makeup. By full makeup I mean the works. A little bit of eyeshadow, blush, mascara, and some lip-gloss. Here’s how to get the perfect makeup! Start off by applying a good concealer wherever needed. Follow with foundation using a damp sponge. This will ensure that the foundation will stay in place, and will give it a natural look. Invest in a good bronzer....

Coral EyesFor a beautiful, natural eye look, a coral eye palette is the best solution. It is very feminine, and you can wear it on any occasion. Start off by blending some foundation over the entire eye area. This will ensure that your eye makeup will stay in place, and will prevent any creases from forming. If you wish to use an eyeliner, apply it before the eyeshadow. Make only one line at the top edge of your eye. Get a little bit of coral eye shadow onto your index finger and dot it gently along your eyelids and into the crease. Don’t go all the way up to the brow bone. Dab a little bit of gol...

Define Your EyebrowsEyebrows are a very important part of your facial features. They define your look, and give you a bit of personality. This is why it is very important to take good care of your eyebrows, and groom them every once in a while. When you’re using a brow pencil, or even powder or gel, make sure that you don’t outline past the brow line. Don’t try to extend your eyebrows either, as this will look fake. Second rule of thumb: your eyebrows should match your hair. I’m not saying that if you have blonde hair, you should have blonde eyebrows, but be reasonable. To define your eyeb...

Get Full LipsEveryone wants to have those perfect Angelina Jolie lips. Unless you want a collagen injection though, there are other ways to make your lips appear fuller without any injections whatsoever. First and foremost, you have to take care of your lips just as you would take care of your skin. Buy a lip exfoliator and use it 3 times a week. The exfoliator gently sloughs away dead skin and leaves your lips feeling smooth. During the winter, make sure you use a good lip balm, which will prevent your lips from getting dry and chapped. Now that your lips are soft and helthy, get out a good lip pencil. Ge...
