Makeup Tip #1

Whatever you do, never, ever apply foundation or concealer to your eyelids. This will only leave a crease in your eyelids as the day progresses.

Makeup Tip #2

For a sheer, light coverage, apply foundation using your fingertips. If you want a medium-full coverage, use a brush or makeup sponge.

Makeup Tip #3

Applying a loose, translucent powder to your T-zone every time after after your foundation will ensure a shine-free complexion and will also keep oils at bay.

Makeup Tip #4

Bronzer should be used on your face, neck, and decoltage. This will ensure an even skin tone. Remember, start out with a small amount of bronzer, as you can always apply more. Starting off with a lot of bronzer could spell disaster and it’s much harder to remove afterwards. For your face, use a wide, thick bronzer brush and trace the number 3 on each side of your face. See illustration above.

Makeup Tip #5

Blush should only be used on the apples of your cheeks. To make sure you apply it in the right place, smile big and use a blush brush onto the apples of your cheeks. Blend well.

Applying lipstick should be easy, but many women make the mistake of putting it on too thick and wind up getting it all of their teeth.

Makeup Tip #8
