How To Make Your Eyes Appear Bigger and Brighter

Today's Blog addresses lining the waterline of your eyes (see diagram for eye makeup) to make them appear larger and brighter. White pencil versus cream and nude toned pencils.
I have my own definite ideas about colour choices when it comes to lining the waterline, whether it's black for smokey eyes or the following colour tips for brightening your eyes.

Large lash-laced eyes are considered desirable in most cultures. Makeup artists have a bagful of tricks up their sleeves to make their clients eyes appear larger and brighter than they really are.

Mascara Guards

APPLYING MASCARAwithout the smudges. 
Keep your mascara on your lashes, not on your skin.

If you have trouble applying mascara eg smudging or clumping, there are a couple  of products on the market that can help. Lash Card is one of these products and is available online.

Great for those of you who, for example, have really long eyelashes, false eyelashes 'hooded' eyes and for some Asian eye shapes.
Many makeup artists have been using what's known as the 'business card trick' for years whereby they cut curves into a business card to use as a shield on the skin, behind the lashes when applying mascara on clients.

Lipstick Tips

LIPSTICK TIPS- FINDING YOUR PERFECT LIPSTICK COLOUR
 
If you have trouble finding the perfect colour lipstick or gloss this article is for you. Most of us keep buying lipstick colours in an attempt to find that one colour that looks perfect on us.
 
TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
We often buy lipsticks that fail to please because we like the colour on the little circle colour swatch on the product or perhaps it looks stunning on the model used in the advertising campaign. Neither of these are good indicators that the colour is going to suit us.

Botáni Olive Skin Serum Review

I recently had the opportunity to trial Botáni's 'Olive Skin Serum'. As a makeup artist I'm always interested in trying new products but as a woman with sensitive, dehydrated skin and an uneven skin tone ... I'm very interested in new products that might just make a difference. Just to make it clear... this is not an advertisement, no one has offered to pay me for doing this product review. I simply love highlighting great products.

I've now been using the Olive Skin Serum every morning after cleansing my face for two weeks and I'm happy to give this serum the big 'thumbs up'.

Age-Adjusting Your Makeup
 
 
 
As we age we need to re-evaluate our makeup colour choices and the way we apply our makeup.
Our skin, hair & eye colours change as we age, the texture of our skin changes and so we need to 'tweak' our old tried & tested makeup routine to suit. I promise you... what suited you in the 80's won't be looking as fresh on you now.
 
 
Read on for some helpful tips to achieve fresher, more youthful results.

Dark Circles Under Your Eyes

Cause, Treatment, Conceal

What ages you most? Surprisingly, it might not be wrinkles or grey hair, but dark circles under your eyes. Dark circles under eyes usually aren't a sign of exhaustion or serious illness, though they can make you feel old, unhealthy and tired. Dark circles under eyes affect both men and women, often starting in adulthood, although children can develop dark circles under eyes, too.

If you get plenty of sleep and still have dark circles under your eyes, that's not unusual.

The Ultimate Beauty Tips For Brides

Getting married?
Use the following as a guide to help you de-stress and ‘glow’ on your wedding day.

To ensure a radiant complexion for your wedding day –

  • Eat a healthy balanced diet in the months before the wedding. Include fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats, fish and grains.
  • Limit your intake of heavily processed foods.
  • Avoid excess alcohol consumption. Alcohol is dehydrating to the body and will affect your skin and the way the makeup ‘sits’ on it.
