Does the skin on your neck look grey and dull? Are you wondering what to use to get rid of this grey and dull look on your neck? Well, necks show the signs of aging, mainly because they lack sebaceous glands. Using a creamy cleanser on your neck can help. Just massage in the creamy cleanser, leave to dissolve dirt and then remove with cotton wool (cotton pads). Dull and grey skin also benefits from regular exfoliation (the removal of dead skin cells). Just scrub gently with a facecloth or rag. Then boost the softness on your neck by rubbing in a good moisturizer.
Do you exercise a lot, and find body odor a problem? Sweating is your body’s natural cooling device. Sweat itself has no odor, but smells when it comes into contact with bacteria on the skin. So, it is best to choose an antiperspirant deodorant. Antiperspirants prevent sweating, while deodorants help prevent odor. Also, regularly wear fresh, natural fibres (lightweight cotton) next to your skin.
Do you have a lot of dark spots on your skin? Do you want to know how to reduce these dark spots? Niacin (Vitamin B3) has been proven to increase cell turnover, ridding the skin of dead skin cells that contain excess pigment. It is best to apply a creamy cleanser containing niacin, apply this cleanser directly to dry skin and then rinse off. Other ingredients that help lighten dark spots are ingredients such as Vitamin C and Licorice Root. So, look for cleansers or creams with these ingredients as well. You can also get rid of dark spots by using a mixture of aloe vera gel, paw paw (papaya), Vitamin E oil and olive oil. Heat the paw paw in a pot to first dry out the water and then blend it with the aloe vera gel and oils to make a paste. Use this mixture (paste) twice a week on your face or body.
Do you want extra natural-looking skin? You can try a tinted moisturizer. Since the tinted moisturizer is lightweight, it would not cover dark spots or blemishes. However, it does even out the skin tone.
What kind of blush works best for people with oily skin? Powder blushes work on all skin types. However, powder blushes are ideal for people with oily skin and should be applied with a big, fluffy brush.
What can make your eyes really stand out? You can make your eyes really stand out by wearing an eye shadow that is the opposite of your eye shade (eye color). Peachy brown colors bring out blue eyes. Blue tints look great on both dark and light brown eyes. The darker your eye color, the darker the blue you should choose. Earthy tones like reddish-brown, look best with green eyes. Lavender and plum eye shadow shades make hazel eyes stand out.
What helps your lip color to go on smoothly? You can apply a lip balm immediately after getting out of the shower. Because after getting out of the shower, your lips will still be a little moist, and will create a smooth surface, when you are ready to put on your lip gloss or lipstick.
What can help your eye shadow to last longer? When wearing cream eye shadow, just put a waterproof eye pencil all over your eye lids first, to prevent creasing and fading. You can use one that is the same color as your eye shadow. For golden or silvery hues, you can use a light brown pencil to give a hint of smokiness that shows through the sheen.
Want to know an easy way to hide a pimple? Have you ever tried to cover up a zit or pimple, and when you tried to cover it up it looked flaky or more obvious? Before you put on concealer, just apply a tiny amount of eye shadow primer on the skin. It helps to create a smooth surface so that you don’t get any crusting or a flaky look. The eye shadow primer helps the concealer to adhere so it stays in place and helps to hide the pimple.
Do you want to have a sexy eye liner and sexy eyes? To give a smoldering or ‘hot’ effect, you can line around your eyes with a soft black pencil and apply two coats of mascara that gives volume and length. You can also use an eye lash curler to curl your lashes, further enhance your eyes and make your eyes look very sexy and attractive.
Want to have nice bold, red lips? Classic red lips can look great with a satiny finish. Just put on a red creamy lipstick or red matte lipstick, and add a layer of clear lip balm on top.
Do you have a dark complexion and oily skin and want to create a non-greasy glow? First of all, dark skin reflects more light, so use highlighters sparingly and use just a little on your cheekbones. Avoid the bridge of your nose, forehead and above your lips. Also, it is best to use golden or bronze highlighters, and pick the right textures. Some powder shimmers can look too frosty on dark skin. You can also use silky liquids that dry once they set and look slightly creamy and not greasy. You can even add a tiny amount of moisturizer and rub it on your cheekbones, which adds sheen without being too shimmery.
Nude shades are very popular now for nail polish, lipstick and eye shadow colors. Do you want to know which nude shades are best to wear on your nails? Sheer colors of pink or beige are okay. Be adventurous, and try brown or caramel shades too! Try to avoid nude shades with a gray undertone, which can make you look pale. For light and deep complexions with warm undertones, use toffee color nail polishes that have a hint of yellow or orange. If you have dark skin tones and red undertones, shimmery browns will look good.
Does your hair have split ends and you want to know how to quickly repair them or reduce them? Properly handling your hair and avoiding things that cause excessive damage to the cuticle can significantly slow the rate at which your hair splits. It can reduce the need to frequently trim your hair. Other methods that can help avoid split ends from developing are by not using tight ponytails in your hair. The point at which the band holds the hair can weaken and develop these loop splits. Other causes of split ends include exposing the hair to excessive heat without using a protectant. Never use a hair dryer too near the hair or use the hair dryer on an extremely high temperature. Also split ends can be caused by using chemical treatments like relaxers and hair colors which can damage the cuticle and expose the cortex, resulting in increased split ends. Using henna masks, conditioners and protein treatments regularly can temporarily mend split ends. Always use the best hair products for your hair type. Also, remember to always use good quality combs and brushes in your hair and have the hair trimmed regularly.
How to define your pretty eyes? When you want your eyes to stand out, don’t do anything that overshadows them. Putting heavy eye shadow or eye liner all around the eyes will make them seem smaller. For a doe-eyed look, brush a matte or slightly bright powder eye shadow along your top lash line, then lessen it up the lid to the crease. Try a cappuccino shade for brown eyes, try gold for blue eyes, or try a soft plum for green eyes or hazel eyes. Next draw a thin flick of black eye liner along your top eye lids and put a small amount past the outer corners, which adds a visual lift to your eyes. To boost the wide-eyed effect, you can curl your eye lashes before you put on mascara, then use an eye liner brush to put a little bit of the eye shadow along your bottom eye lids.
How to get your most natural cheek look? Some neutral blushes or matte bronzers appear pigmented enough in the compact, but turn ashy or invisible when put onto brown skin. To fix it, increase the color. Try putting on blush when your skin is slightly wet from your foundation, or mist your face with setting spray, and then apply your blush. Another option is to put pressed powders on your cheeks; pressed powder that is two shades darker than your skin tone instead of blush. Apply the pressed powder right below your cheekbones and up toward your temples to shape your face.
Does your mascara always seem to run onto your skin and leave you with mascara smudges around your eyes? You can avoid mascara smudges by first holding a piece of tissue underneath your lower lashes while you are applying your mascara. Using a waterproof variety of mascara should help if you are prone to this problem, or you can seal your normal mascara with a coat of clear mascara. You can also dip a cotton swab in eye makeup remover for fast touch-ups before the mascara can dry on your skin. Another long-term solution is to have your eyelashes permanently dyed regularly at a good beauty salon.
Do you want to make your lipstick stay put all day without peeling, fading or smudging? Unfortunately, there is no lipstick that lasts 24 hours. The longest lasting lipsticks are those with the thickest, driest textures, although they can leave your lips feeling very dry, especially if you use them every day or very regularly. You can try lipstick sealers, which are clear gels that you paint over your lips, after you have applied your lipstick. Once they are dry, these lipstick sealers help your lipstick stay in place past your first coffee for the day.
Do you have bottles of nail polish that you cannot use because they have dried up, or because they are full of bubbles and do not go on smoothly? Do you want to know what to do to fix that? Dried up nail polish can be restored by stirring in a few drops of nail polish remover before using the nail polish. You can help prevent the nail polish from thickening by storing it in the refrigerator, as the cold temperature will prevent evaporation and stop it changing in texture. Bubbles of air in the nail polish will ruin its finish, as it won’t create an even surface. You can prevent this problem with the bubbles forming, by rolling the nail polish bottle between the palms of your hands to mix it up before using, rather than shaking it up a lot.
Are you wondering what cleanser to use on your face to get rid of stubborn makeup? If you wear full coverage foundation, SPF 15 or higher sunscreen, try a cleansing oil. Massage the oil over dry skin to dissolve products that are hard to remove. Then use a regular cleanser to wash your face.
Do you want to have a beautiful long-lasting scent on your clothes or body? Then use oil-based perfumes instead of ‘eau de parfum,’ ‘eau de toilette’ or alcohol-based perfumes.
How do you use a foundation? Always try to use a foundation that matches your skin tone exactly. Apply the foundation from your cheek down past your jaw. You are not going to wear foundation on your neck, but you want to make sure that the foundation looks natural from your face to your neck.
Why is it important to use a face primer? It is best to use a primer first, then put on a foundation. You can put on a face primer, then put on any color correctors and then put on a liquid foundation (these steps are important). Also, when you wear a primer, it keeps the skin hydrated and looking radiant. Skin primers also help hide fine lines and large visible pores on the face. Using a face primer also helps your makeup to last for several hours. People with oily skin should use a primer with a mattifier (to reduce shine and give a matte look).
How to make your eye lashes look full? To make your eye lashes look full, you can shade in the upper lash line to make your eye lashes look full and thick. You can also put in a little shimmer at the tear ducts.
How and why do you use a highlighter on the face? You can highlight after putting on foundation to give a more natural and glowing effect to your skin. When you highlight, you create an artificial (false) light to your nose bridge and cheek bones. You can use a fan brush mainly to highlight specific areas on the face.
How to remove stubborn eye makeup? You can remove stubborn eye makeup by first dipping a cotton pad in an oil-based remover. Just press it over the eyes for about 20 seconds before gently wiping it away, then rinse away oil completely with a regular cleanser. If you have dry skin, just wipe away excess oil with your cotton pad, allowing a bit to remain on the skin to moisturize it.
How to reduce puffiness before you put on your makeup? You can increase circulation before you put on your makeup, by massaging a moisturizer into your face and neck for at least five minutes. A relaxed face with softer lines makes your foundation go on smooth for makeup and gives you an instant healthy glow.
Why should you use separate towels to dry your face and hair? You should use separate towels to dry your face and hair because this prevents the oils from your scalp from rubbing off on your face and causing breakouts.
What type of lipstick is the most hydrating? Cream lipsticks are among the most hydrating lipsticks, since they have plenty emollients (ingredients to soften or smooth skin). They also seal in moisture and give a full, lustrous color.
What lipstick colors are best for Redheads (women with natural red hair color) or Blondes? Redheads with ivory skin should stick to bluish-red lip color. Those with peachy complexions and strawberry-blond hair look great in red lipsticks that are golden based.
How best to trim your nails? Always trim your nails with a nail clipper. Start to trim your nails at the sides. Beginning at the centre can flatten the natural curve and cause nail breakage and damage.
How to turn your ordinary mascara into one that lengthens your eye lashes? You can turn your ordinary mascara into one that lengthens your eye lashes by dusting your eye lashes with a little translucent powder first.
What product can help your nails grow strong? A drop of olive oil rubbed into your nails every night, can help your nails grow long and strong.
How to find your best nude lip color? When testing shades, hold them up near your face or even apply a bit on your jawline. If your skin is on the light end of the brown spectrum, peachy-beige shades work with your golden undertones. If your skin is a bit cooler, choose a pinky-nude. For medium brown skin, try colors in the caramel to toffee range or a rosy-brown lipstick. Dark brown skin looks best in mocha and chocolate shades, all colors with a different hint of red, orange, or golden flecks for warmth and dimension. You can also make your lipstick look less dull, by first filling in the lips with a neutral lip liner and then putting the lipstick on top. Put one color on your top lip and put a different one on the bottom lip, then press your lips together.
Are you a makeup artist and want to know how to extend the life of your brushes? Always store your brushes properly so the bristles stay in shape. The most popular storage options include roll-up pouch, brush belt or brush holder/cup. Keep brushes clean and free of contamination by using brush sanitizer after each use. Never put your wet brush upright and put the brush flat to dry on a clean surface. Washing your brushes for the first time can also help reduce shedding of the bristles.
Name one way to prevent chin and cheek breakouts? By cleaning your cell phone with antibacterial wipes every morning or once a week.
What is a good facial that you can do at home for a special occasion? The day before a party or event, don’t do facials that can leave your face looking red. You can use an easy face mask made with one teaspoon of raw oatmeal, and one teaspoon of honey which is a much safer way. Just let this mask sit on the face for about ten minutes and then rinse off. The minerals in oatmeal are soothing and the honey hydrates and kills bacteria too.
What to use to make a short eyebrow look better? Use brow powder instead of a pencil to extend a short eyebrow. A pencil can look waxy and fake when not hidden by brow hairs. Then set the brow powder with a clear brow gel.
When and how to use a bronzer? Bronzer isn’t just for the summer. In the winter it can make a great evening look. You can start by using a loose, rosy-brown powder and concentrate color on cheekbones, then lightly dust your forehead, cheeks and chin. Complete the look by adding a shimmery peach blush to the apples of the cheeks. You can add definition to your jawline by using a fluffy brush to apply matte (not shimmery) bronzer powder in a shade that is two shades darker than your skin. Always remember that for normal to oily complexions, you can use a powder bronzer by applying it with a short fluffy brush. Cream bronzers are ideal for people with dry skin and they are applied with fingers or a sponge onto the skin.
What is best to use to file or trim natural nails? Metal nail files can be too harsh for natural nails. Cardboard or crystal files are best to use instead.
