Any human face can be a beautiful thing. Really, it can be. Even you are aged, or you lack the so-called classic good looks, there is much that you can do to look good. To start learning some basics as to how to make this happen for you, refer to the tips below.
If you have a hard time getting your eyeliner to stay put, you can apply eyeshadow after you put on eyeliner. You should lightly put your shadow over your eyeliner with a cotton ball. This will seal the application of eyeliner and it will last longer and not run.
For added impact and eye-opening, beautifully curled lashes, use a heated eyelash curler. If you would prefer to use a regular eyelash curler, you can create a similar effect by giving your curler a quick blast of a few seconds with your hairdryer. This will help to hold the curl and prevent smudging.
You can camouflage an unsightly double chin by brushing on a swipe of rosy-brown powder blush along your jawline from your ears to your chin. Next, use a light, translucent powder on your natural chin and blend the entire area very well. This may take a bit of practice, but when done properly, it makes a noticeable difference.
If you have overly round eyes, you can elongate them by adjusting your eyeliner application. The outer two-thirds of your lower and upper lash lines should be lined with a dark brown liner. The two lines should meet at the outer corner of each eye. Finally, apply two coats of mascara to your outer upper lashes.
If you have problems keeping wild and unruly brows tamed, you can keep them under control by spraying a brow brush with a bit of hairspray or clear brow gel, then gently combing your brows into place. For added shaping, you can even use a very small dab of Vaseline.
For an all natural skincare routine, wash your face using castile soap, apply white vinegar and finish with aloe vera gel. These kinds of natural items will work wonderfully on any skin type. If aloe vera doesn’t provide you with enough moisture, try adding a little vitamin E oil. If you need a medicated toner, add a small drop of tea tree oil.
To whiten and brighten your teeth, add a little baking soda to your toothbrush once a week. Just sprinkle a little baking soda in the palm of your hand, dampen your toothbrush and press the bristles into the baking soda, add toothpaste and brush your teeth as usual. Don’t do this more than once a week since baking soda can be hard on your tooth enamel if overused.
Eat more tomatoes as part of your beauty routine. Tomatoes have many health benefits, and special benefits for beauty. Studies have shown that people who have a diet high in tomatoes, also have less wrinkles. They also are less susceptible to sunburn than people who have no tomato in their diet.
Put a little pop in your beauty regimen by adding some shimmery eye shadow as part of your look. The shiny effect can make your eyes seem larger and brighter. Find something that is similar to your natural skin tone. Do not be afraid to experiment with different colors and application techniques.
Petroleum jelly is a great moisturizer for extremely dry feet. Forget about all the pricy skin softeners on the market; you can rely on inexpensive petroleum jelly to make the skin on your feet softer. Three or more times each week, smooth it onto the areas of your feet that need work. This can help prevent peeling, cracking, chafing and abrasion.
Smooth lotion over hair to reduce the static. If you find yourself out with nothing to use, grab the hand lotion you keep in your purse. Take a little bit and rub the palm of your hands together slightly, then run through your hair. This is a quick and easy fix.
Cover up your roots. If you are in between trips to the hairdresser and your roots are showing cover them up with mascara. For lighter colored hair use a little extra hairspray and dust with a gold colored eyeshadow. This will cover up roots until you get your hair colored again.
To cover up a zit at the last minute, use a product containing cortisone or benzoyl peroxide. Apply the product to a cotton ball, and gently dab it on your pimple. This will bring down the redness and shrink the zit. This will allow you to easily hide the pimple with concealer.
If you find that the nail polish that you thought was the perfect color is not the color that you wanted when you get it on your nails, consider adding a bit of nail polish remover to the bottle. It will change the color a bit and make it a little lighter.
When applying make up you want to be sure that you do it in a gentle way. If you use strokes that are too strong you can have two problems. The first of these is that the abrasive nature of the strokes can damage your skin. Secondly, it leads to a lack of control and worse makeup.
Discovering your own beauty and working upon it to make it more evident is indeed possible. The tips above should have created a good foundation for you to build upon, so that you can find and accentuate your own beauty.
