Here is another tip for Tip Tuesdays…

On quick “5 Minute Makeup” or “No Makeup Makeup” days all you need is blush, mascara, lipgloss, and bronzer!

When I want to look natural or get ready quickly, I love to sweep a bit of bronzer into my crease.  It adds some nice depth without taking a lot of time or having to use eyeshadow.

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesdays…

Lining the inner rim of the eye is beautiful but it is a bit high maintenance.  Unfortunately, you will always have to touch it up as needed throughout the day, but there are a few ways to extend the wear time of the eye liner when lining the water line or tight lining. First of all, always use a waterproof liner in the waterline. (My all time favorite is Scandaleyes waterproof kohl liner by Rimmel.)  Secondly, before applying the liner, use a q-tip cotton swab to dry off the area you are about to line. Q-tips are perfect for using throughout the day as well to clean up the buildup that often collects in the tear ducts. (I hate when that happens!)  Thirdly, if you tend to have very watery eyes, you may want skip lining the waterline all together, but if not, apply the liner to your waterline with your head tilted back with your mouth closed while breathing deeply through your nose.  This helps those tears to go into the sinuses and not out onto the eyes and down the cheeks.

Sometime making little changes can make a big difference in you makeup/beauty routine.

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesdays…

When applying eyeshadow into the crease, instead of looking straight on into the mirror, tilt your head back and look down into the mirror.  Just moving your head into this different position will help you to visualize the eye bone better giving you a better guide where to add your crease color.

This tip is also helpful for when you are applying eyeliner as well as false lashes.  You can better visualize where you want to add the liner and the lashes by tilting your head back and looking into the mirror at this different angle.

If you try out this tip, I’d love to hear how it works for you!

I’m going to be starting a new series called…Tip Tuesdays!

I hope to give you some little tips and tricks that help to make a big difference in your daily makeup/beauty routine!

Tip #1: If you want your eyeshadow to blend more evenly and easily without creasing or fading, you need to try this tip:

Working one eye at a time, prime your eyelid with an eye primer, paint pot, or even use concealer or just your foundation.  Then immediately set with a translucent powder.  

When you go to apply your eye shadows you will notice how much more easily they will apply.

This little step will create a smoother canvas on your eyelid to lay down your colors.  You’ll be amazed at how even cheaper, harder to work with shadows will blend more easily.

Give it a try and let me know what you think!
