Many people base what they think beauty is off of what they have learned from the media. However, it is wise to remember that often times these images are not real. Define beauty as what works best for you. This article will assist you in figuring out what’s the best for you in terms of beauty.
Upper Lip
In order to enhance the appearance of your lips, use shimmery white eyeshadow on the center of the top lip. The light reflecting off the middle of your upper lip creates the illusion of a full upper lip.
Hazel and green eyes can be enhanced using coral or purple-colored eyeshadow. These highlighting colors include silvery pewter and deep purples; pale, shimmery lavender and light brown can also be used.
Use different colored eyeshadow, such as copper, yellow and apricots, to draw attention to your eyes. Choose eyeliners and mascaras in dark brown with deep purple, brick or maroon highlights. They will draw attention to the blues of your eyes.
To make your foundation last longer, mix it with some facial moisturizer. It will also give you a healthy glow instead of a heavy makeup look and it will add more SPF to your face.
Don’t go overboard with shimmer; apply it sparingly and lightly. This will give your skin a slight glow effect. When using highlighters, place them on the higher spots on the face, including cheekbones, brows and the nose, followed by a thin dusting of powder.
Use a tiny bit of teabag to fix your torn nails. Pour the tea leaves into the garbage first. Then, cut a small section from the bag that is big enough for covering the damaged area on your nail. Then you should put the piece of teabag on the torn nail and put some clear top coat on it.
Beauty Products
Keep some of your beauty products in the refrigerator. Make a special effort to do this in the summer when it is hot outside. If it is particularly hot outside you can keep your beauty products in the refrigerator. You can even cool yourself off thanks to lotions.
If possible, think about buying more than one container of each product you like to use, whether a powder, blush or lip gloss. The extras can be kept someplace convenient, like a drawer at your work station, and the others can be kept at your home. Doing this is an effective method of preparation so that you never neglect to apply your makeup.
Do not let television or magazines define how you perceive beauty. You need to create your own personal understanding and application of beauty. Using these suggestions, you can create your own beauty that is not comparable to media portrayals.
