Makeup Hacks
-Wet Beauty Blender: I personally prefer to dampen my beauty blender before usage. I find it gives my foundation a more natural appearance. Beware though, it is a sponge, so of course it absorbs some of the product. I personally like this in order to minimize the amount of foundation I actually use.
-Removing Makeup: Sometimes I forget to buy more makeup wipes so I use my facial cleanser to remove my makeup. I love this gentle alternative. I wash my face one time to get the makeup off and then I wash my face again to ensure my face is clean. I know I am makeup less when the foam is no longer the color of my foundation.
-Carmex: It is no secret that the continuous use of lip gloss and lip stick can be extremely drying. Something I have begun doing to combat this is the application of Carmex. I make sure to apply Carmex when I begin my makeup so it has time to moisturize my lips before I put on my lip product.
-Makeup Wipes: On occasion when I do use wipes to take off my makeup wipes I like to use baby wipes. Baby wipes when bought in certain locations, are not too expensive. They also typically contain more wipes than traditional makeup wipes. And they are gentle enough to be used on babies, so they are safe enough for you as well.
-Winged Eyeliner: Winged eyeliner is something that even the best beauty gurus struggle with. Tape makes winged eyeliner a little easier. Placing the tape, as a stencil, where you want the wing to go allows you to trace the tape to get the perfect winged look.
-Color Correcting: This is definitely a new craze, and not without reason of course. Using certain colors from the color wheel helps to cancel imperfections we would want to cover like redness, dark spots, and dark circles. The colors below do in fact work for basically everyone, and obviously the darker your skin tone the more pigmented version of the colors below you will need to use.
