Chloe (my pup) and BrookeWhat are your best beauty tips and advice?
STEP ONE :FACE


To begin with, you need to have a clean face. An artist doesn't paint on a dirty canvas, and neither should you!





Wash face and neck thoroughly


Apply a water-based moisturizer








STEP TWO: CONCEALER AND BASE


If there are any blemishes that need to be covered, begin with a concealer.





Use a yellow-based concealer to match your complexion without adding unnecessary color


Dab on all locations that you wish to cover. Gently rub in, but do not rub off


After that is complete, you are ready to apply a base foundation.





Choose a color that matches really closely to your actual skin tone


Test the foundation to make sure the color blends nicely


The right foundation will seem to ';disappear'; on your face


Cover entire face, blending into the neck








STEP THREE:CHEEK COLOR


Color is used to accentuate features.





Make sure to use a darker shade to lift your cheekbones


Apply from the earlobe down towards the cheek. This prevents leaving a blob of color in the middle of your cheek!


Using a coppery color will accentuate the darker skinned, while a peach or pale pink works nicely with more fair skin. Lighter colors can be used to highlight as well, following the same pattern.








STEP FOUR: EYES


To apply eye make-up, it works best to have two or three shades of one color.





Apply the lightest shade to the entire eyelid


The middle shade is applied to the lower part of the eyelid, closest to the lashes


The darkest shade is applied to the corners of the eyes to create a sense of depth


Eyeliner is used to blend the color into the lashes


Start in the middle of the eyelid, moving out toward the corners


Make sure to blend it into the eyelid


It can be covered with a small amount of lighter eye shadow to make it less dramatic


Mascara should be last


If you have fair skin, lighter mascara, like brown, would be less dramatic and more natural


Apply two coats and wait for it to dry








STEP FIVE: LIPS


There are numerous combinations to use when applying lipstick. Lip liner does not necessarily need to be used, but it helps to bring out the color and shape of your lips.





If lip liner is used, make sure that the lip liner and lipstick blend nicely


Start lining from the inside and move out towards the edges


Then, taking a lip brush, apply the color


Using a brush allows more even coverage and helps control the amount of color applied


Finishing off with a shine gloss gives lips that ';kiss me'; glow!

Make-up takes time to perfect. Practice is the best way to achieve the look that you want. Spend a little time in front of the mirror everyday. Soon you will find the look that is right for you and you will find that you ARE beautiful ...inside and out!What are your best beauty tips and advice?
Find the shade that fits your skin tone and eye color. It'll bring out the beautiful woman in you. Plus, it will look like you are wearing the make-up, not the make-up wearing you! Mary Kay does have an awesome virtual make-over that will helpyou figure it out!
Skin care is most important to looking your best. Witch Hazel is great for getting impurities out of your pores and is so cheap! Toothpaste is a good overnight treatment for acne. And my favorite to harp on: If you use a glycolic base moisturizer, you must use a sunscreen based moisturizer in the morning. These skin rejuvenating moisturizers slough off old skin, exposing new skin so you need to protect it from the rays. But nothing more than an spf 15 is necessary. And shaving bikinis lines is a whiz and rarely irritated if you use conditioner instead of shaving creams.
Complexion advice:


';Day and Night'; lotion by Stridex works well for breakouts. Try their ';Antibacterial Foaming Wash, Cooling'; as well. It provides instant relief and cleanses effectively, but tends to dry out the skin a bit. The Day lotion can be worn under foundation.





Also, try and find out if breakouts are caused by any food allergies. Chocolate, nuts, dairy, wheat/gluten-containing grains, and soy are common perpetrators. You can treat the surface, but if the complexion problems are actually due to internal issues, the breakouts will keep coming back.
less is more....


alot of people tend to think wearing alot of makeup makes them look good.....sometimes it looks like they are trying to hide who they are and become who there not.


let yourself shine through use the basics and let yourself be seen.


It's suppose to help... not make worse. Pretty basic..And your skin will say thanks in the long run!


Wash, tone, sunscreen/moisturize (olive oil based is the best) foundations IF needed we are all not perfect some bronzer powder, tend to eyebrows IMPORTANT, curl them lashes girls so we can see those eyes, mascara and some lip gloss out the door! Wash your face before bed!
Never, ever wear your foundation to bed. Always wash your face . Always use a sunscreen.
