Makeup Tips

As far as applying makeup, there are are several basic tips you can use to make sure your makeup looks good.

• Don't overdo it with the makeup! Less is more.
• For the most part, make it look natural.
• If you do a heavy eye (wearing heavy eye makeup), do a lighter lip (less lip makeup or more natural lip), and vice versa
• Match the foundation makeup to your natural skin tone
• If you are wearing lipstick and lip liner, make sure to keep them matching in color (within one shade of each other)
• Your eyebrow pencil makeup shade should be a shade darker than your hair color.
• Don't over tweeze your eyebrows. If you do, you will have to use more eye brow pencil to compensate, which leads to a less natural look.
• never tug on your eye while applying eye makeup

These are just a few basic makeup tips for you to use. Not bad, eh?

Makeup Storage

Maybe this counts as a tip too but makeup storage is pretty important and is less about using the makeup and more about preserving it. When it comes to storing your makeup you want to store it in a dry place that is room temperature. Always throw it away when the expiration date arrives. Expired makeup can give you infections, glob up, and look bad. So, definitely do not use make up past the expiration date. Once a month, before you store your makeup, clean all of your brushes, because they have your natural oils on them and if you use the brushes too long without cleaning them you will only be putting your old oils back onto your face!
