Beauty Secrets Do You Have Any?

Question

Hello

I am barley starting out on the whole makeup thing so i wanted to know if you have any "beauty secrets" you would be willing to share with me.

Skin care, Body care,Makeup Tricks, Things of that nature.

Answer 1

less is more! alot of women when they start to wear makeup buy everything they can at the beauty counter, but all it does it make it more obvious that theyre wearing makeup when the effect you want is naturally gorgeous. only wear concealer/foundation if you really need it, eg if your skin has uneven skintone or if you have some pimples you want to hide. if your skin is in relatively good condition, keep the coverage makeup to a minimum and instead draw attention to your eyes/lips so that people will look at them more.

and for me, mascara is a must. the only difference between mickey and minnie mouse is her long lovely lashes, so theyre a staple to looking feminine. but if you want your mascara to work to its best, always curl your lashes. it makes so much of a difference :)

and lipgloss looks tacky and looks like youre an extra in a hiphop video. a little slick of it now and then can make you look refreshed, but wearing it everyday and piling it on looks really S****y. also try not to wear black eyeliner on your bottom lid because it makes eyes look squinty, and avoid eyeshadow colors that are too bright, eg oranges/blues/yellows/pinks. try stick to browns/caramels/creams, theyre alot more flattering.

and blushes are really great for that just flushed look, i rely on blush to make me look alive every morning, haha

and i recommend shiseido cosmetics, you definitely get what you pay for :) also dior, they make the best mascaras in the world.

Answer 4

It's not much of a 'secret', but the #1 best advice for people using make up is: ALWAYS WASH YOUR FACE THOROUGHLY AFTER THE END OF THE DAY!

Cleanse off your eye makeup first....and then the lips, and then the whole face. Sometimes it's hard to get the eye makeup off so you can get a special eye-liquid for that. Remember to be extra gentle around the eyes, as they are very thin tissues.

Answer 7

couple things.

7. when plucking, don't pluck too thin.

8. don't look like a crackwhore, prostitute, etc.

9. bright red lipstick is for special occasions.

10. focus on either eyes or lips, or both but make it minimal.

11. waterproof mascara is your best friend.

12. brushes are important!

13. babyoil removes makeup.

14. if something is smudged, use a cotton swab.

15, do not wear blue eyeliner unless it is under black.

16. fake eyelashes make you look fake if you wear them everyday.

17. be careful with concealer, foundation, coverup all of that stuff, because you might have bad skin, and that'll make it worse, then you'll want to cover it up more, it's a never ending cycle.

18. to get good skin, exfoliate twice a day. a mask once a week, and moisturize with cream. wearing cream every day prevents wrinkles and stops your skin from becoming leathery in the sun.

19. chip nails are not s**y.

20. dark roots look trashy.

21. with makeup, make sure to smudge! i cannot say this enough. smudge, smudge smudge.

22. be careful on not getting rid of old makeup, or using other peoples because it will cause pinkeye!

23. if you do get pinkeye, put milk under the eye, just dab and that helps.

24. remember, natural is s**y.

25. makeup is not to hide your feautures but to accentuate them!
