The 5 Most Common Makeup Mistakes (And How To Avoid Them)

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

Orange face, white neck. Brown neck, pink face.

We all know someone with no perception of how her make-up really
looks on her own face.

She’s sweet, really sweet. But she’s a joke in your circle of
friends. Oh, no. It isn’t you, is it?

Well, even if you don’t wear “clown makeup,” chances are you’re
making some mistakes with your makeup. Take stock to be sure
that you don’t fall into any of the makeup traps below.

Mismatched Foundation

Your foundation should not be a different color from the rest of
your body. Really, it shouldn’t. This is an easy problem to fix.
March yourself down to the make-up counter at your favorite
department store and let the salesperson do her job. It’s her
job, after all. Don’t be intimidated, you don’t need to buy the
whole product line.

Blue Eye shadow

Blue eye shadow works for some people. Little girls in dance
recitals. Guests at 1970s-themed parties. Ethereal looking
supermodels. If you aren’t one of the aforementioned people then
don’t wear it.

Enough said.

Dark Circles Under Eyes/Obvious under eye concealer

This is a chicken or egg problem. You’re right, the circles
aren’t great. But neither are orange crescents under your eyes.
Play around with a few shades of concealer to see what really
works best for you.

Different products work differently on different people. Just
because one brand works for your friend, doesn’t mean it’ll be
flattering on you. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep and
talk to your doctor. Sometimes those circles are a sign of
allergies or a vitamin deficiency.

Obvious Lip liner

This is a look. It’s just not a flattering one. Lip liner is
intended to add dimension to thin or small lips, to lengthen the
wear of your lip color and to prevent your lipstick from
“bleeding” onto your face. It is not intended to create a
visible outline.

Inferior products in your dressing area

Most of us are not starlets with dressing rooms and make-up
artists at our disposal. But that doesn’t mean we don’t deserve
to look like starlets with dressing rooms and make-up artists.

Invest in good lighting around your vanity. Stock it with
quality make-up brushes and limit your make-up collection to
products you’ll actually use. That way, your budget can be used
to buy better cosmetics.

You’re worth it

Add a couple of extra minutes, a wee bit more effort and a
little money into your daily makeup routine. It’s not vain to
spend a few dollars on or a few minutes at your vanity. Put on
your prettiest smile, bat your beautiful lashes and show the
world that you like who you are.

Put your best face forward… you don’t have to hide behind
crow’s feet and lip lines..

How to remove this eye puffiness?

So I got out of the shower and went outside, and when I woke up I had really big puffy bag under my right eye only. What caused this and how can I make it go away?

Try an Ice Pack.

What is a good concealer for my under eye circles?

Friday, January 29th, 2010

My skin is really fair, and it looks as if the skin under my eyes are a purplish bruised color. I’ve been trying to blend the concealer under my eyes to make my face look flawless, but I have trouble doing so because I have these little dots under my eyes, so it comes out looking obvious that im trying to cover my eye circles, rather than looking natural and "flawless."

I was wondering if there is a certain brand that is just absolutely perfect for my type of eyes.

i feel your pain.
i would recommend trying to find a really light (if possible lighter than your skin tone) stick concealer.
those seem to be the best for undereye circles.
for the best quality try a department store and ask one of the clerks for help.
if not go to a Walgreens or CVS and try CoverGirl or Maybeleen or something.
good luck:]

What under-eye cream would you recommend for a 22-year-old?

Do the ones that claim to reduce dark circles also prevent fine lines from occurring?

At your age just about any eye cream will work. You’re not trying to get rid of wrinkles you’re trying not to get them in the first place.

Wearing sunglasses helps, drinking lots of water, no smoking or heavy drinking and getting enough rest all help in preventing wrinkles and dark circles.
