- a good perfume should consist of a balance. I believe in a signature sent what ever it might be, make it yours. Perfume clings to hair and fabrics the old trick of the arm is a thing of the past. try this: before blow drying your hair spray your perfume as if it's your product. This will allow your smell not only to carry out longer though out the day but also when you whip your curls it will give others around you a reminder of how great you smell.
- find your bone structure and make it bold. for example I am the person that has high cheek bones. i have also learned that its not okay to put blush on cheek bones for its just to much, but instead to highlight under my eyes to even it out and contour under the bone to enhance they bone a little bit.
- less is more. sadly I see this in college so much but when it comes to makeup enhance yourself but do not change yourself. full coverage is still something that is practical to do just in the right way. my best advice is to do one of the three {brow, eye, or lip}. do not try to master them all on one canvas.
- Its not about the money you spend on your brushes it's how you use them. when applying your make up do it softly and over time. when make-up is rushed you can tell. note: less fingers on the brush the better. this will keep you from being heavy handed and will allow your make-up to go on more evenly.
- CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN your brushes. you don't have to clean them every week but atlas every month. This will not only help with the application of your make-up but also this will give your skin a beautiful glow.
- Wash your face day and night. if you sleep with your make-up on this will give you wrinkles down the road and if you apply make-up without a fresh base then you might have oil spots and find yourself blotting though out the day.
- Know your skin tone. The winter is upon us and we all are turning pail but let your make-up reflect that as well. The line is inevitable when you match wrong, Know your true skin tone and embrace it. When contoured and highlighted in the right way you will still look like a glowing goddess.
- okay so the boys let the cat out of the bag a long time ago but for those of us that don't have the desirable jury lip there is a way around it. start with applying a skin town councilor across your lip, then: extend your liner just above your upper and lower lip and contour inward to give it depth and detention.
- sponges are looked down upon when holding bacteria but when apply foundation wet your beauty sponge and dab your face letting the foundation set. This will give you the air brush look for all your photos through out the night.
- practice makes perfect! I am not ashamed to say it but Youtube is my key teacher of all the ends and outs of makeup. I will even share a few of my favorite ones with you!
