The Best Eyeshadow Application Tips & Tricks

Applying eyeshadow correctly is simpler than it may seem. It’s all about discovering the right techniques and styles that complement your personal aesthetic. Don’t be discouraged if it takes a few attempts to master your look. Here are some essential tips to enhance your eyeshadow application: Start with a Base: Just as you would apply a base coat on your face, it’s important to prep your eyelids. Using loose powder or your foundation can create an even canvas for eyeshadow application. Blend Thoroughly: Blending is crucial. To see the difference, blend one eye and leave the other unblended. The contrast will highlight the importance of blending for a seamless finish. Achieve Drama with Water: For a more intense color payoff, dampen your eyeshadow brush with water before dipping it into the shadow. This technique creates a richer, more dramatic hue.

Top 5 Common Makeup Mistakes (and How to Fix Them)

We’ve all been there—applying makeup perfectly until one little mistake throws everything off. Whether it’s too much foundation or a mascara smudge, it can feel like all your hard work has been undone. Fortunately, these common makeup mistakes have quick and easy fixes that can save your look without having to start from scratch. 1. “I’ve Put on Too Much Foundation” Overdoing it on foundation is a common slip-up. Here’s how to quickly fix the excess without removing all your makeup: Lightly dampen a clean sponge with water (it should be almost dry) and gently dab it over your face in downward strokes. This will remove the excess foundation without disrupting your look. Tip: Be especially cautious around the eye area, as too much foundation or concealer can emphasize fine lines. After sponging, use your fingertips to softly blend any leftover product for a more natural finish. 2. “My Eyeshadow Looks Too Dark” If your eyeshadow came out too intense […]

Tips for Wearing Makeup with Glasses

Whether you prefer neutral tones, highlighters, or bold lip colors, there are many ways to enhance your makeup when wearing glasses. With a few simple techniques, you can ensure your makeup looks polished and complements your frames. Mascara Many glasses-wearers avoid mascara because it tends to smudge on the lenses. However, it all comes down to application. Focus on applying mascara to the roots of your lashes rather than the tips. This will give your lashes a fuller appearance without the risk of smearing your lenses. Curling your lashes will also help keep them away from the glass. Primer If your glasses tend to slip down the bridge of your nose throughout the day, try using a small amount of eyeshadow primer on the bridge of your nose before putting on your glasses. This clever trick can help keep them in place, and it’s even a useful tip for men who wear glasses! Eyeshadow When wearing glasses, it’s best to […]

7 Steps To Flawless Makeup That Lasts All Day

1. PRIME The first step in the process is using a primer. I’m assuming that you’ve done your skincare regimen though 😉 The function of a primer is to help fill in imperfections. With your pores, your skin is like an orange peel. Primer will make it smooth like an apple! If you start with a smooth surface, it’s easier to create a flawless finish. Does your makeup disappear by the end of the day? Primer creates a barrier between your skin and the foundation so it doesn’t just absorb in.
