Whether you are a beauty expert or just starting out with makeup, there are always little tricks that can make your makeup process faster, easier, and more perfect. There are so many beauty tips. Makeup artists and skincare experts use them every day to create the perfect makeup look. By applying these tips daily, you can do more with less effort. Here are a few beauty makeup tips that every woman should know to reveal her more beautiful face and make it glow naturally.
Start by using an ice pack to cleanse your face
Before applying makeup, gently rub an ice cube over your skin. This is one of the quickest ways to prepare yourself. This simple trick can give your face a rosy look and reduce puffiness. It also shrinks pores. Plus, it makes your makeup easier to apply and last longer. By doing this in the morning, you can give your face a fresher look and feel ready to take on the day.
Lip balm is everywhere
Lip balm can be applied to more than just your lips. A good, hydrating lip balm can work well for dry lips, hard-to-define brows, and even cheeks that need an extra boost of brightness. For a naturally radiant look, dab a little around your eyes or on highlights on your face. Keep a multi-purpose balm in your bag to save time and space and keep your skin healthy all day long.
Use a triangle to apply concealer
Instead of drawing dots directly under your eyes, draw an inverted triangle. Not only does this help to better cover dark circles, it also makes the center of your face look brighter and more defined. Blend it well with your foundation for a smooth finish that makes your eyes look bigger and more focused, even on tired days.
Warm up your eyelash curler for better results
If you have trouble keeping your lashes curled, use a hairdryer to heat up your eyelash curler for a few seconds. Curling your lashes with a hot eyelash curler acts like a curling iron and can help your lashes stay in place longer. Always check the temperature before applying it near your eyes to avoid damage or pain.
Using eyeliner to create gel eyeliner
If your eyeliner feels dry or difficult to apply, hold the tip of the pencil over a flame for a second or two to give it a gel-like consistency. Let it sit for a moment before using. You’ll notice that the texture smooths out, allowing you to apply fuller, smoother eyeliner. This is a quick way to create a stunning eye look without having to switch products.
Set your lipstick with tissue paper and loose powder
After applying your lip gloss, wrap your lips in tissue paper to help it stay put and reduce the need for frequent touch-ups. Sprinkle some translucent loose powder onto the tissue paper. This will set your makeup without diminishing the shine of your lip gloss, and will give you a matte finish that won’t transfer. Makeup artists have been using this trick for years to ensure that lip gloss stays put all day, even during meetings, meals, and late nights.
You can use liquid foundation as a tinted moisturizer. Want a lighter coverage? Mix a small amount of liquid foundation with lotion. This will create a natural, non-heavy lotion. Perfect for a quick everyday look or when you want your makeup to look effortless. Plus, it lets your skin breathe and evens out your skin tone.
Subtly draw attention
When using highlighters, less is more. Apply a small amount to your cheeks, brow bones, bridge of your nose, and lip arch. These are the high points of your face where light naturally falls. This method can lift your face and accentuate your best features without making your skin look oily or overdone. It’s also important to choose a highlighter that matches your skin tone for a natural, glowing glow.
Use white eyeliner to make your eyes look bigger
A little white or black eyeliner along your lash line can instantly make your eyes look bigger and brighter. This simple trick can make your entire face look brighter, especially in the morning or after a night out. Applying a little makeup over your eyeliner can make your eyes look brighter, even if you’ve had a bad night’s sleep.
Keep blotting papers handy
If you tend to smudge during the day, blotting papers can save you a lot of effort. Instead of applying more powder, you can use blotting papers to absorb the oil so your makeup doesn’t smudge. This will keep your skin looking fresh and even without the heavy feel of regular powder.
