What are some good makeup tips to know?

Keep the bacteria down and performance up!

• Clean tools & products weekly
  • Shampoo brushes
  • Wipe carry bag and bottles with an antiseptic wipe
  • Lightly spray powders with alcohol

• An angled edge kabuki brush is fabulous for blush, contour & highlight

• A mini very flat angled brush is magnificent for brows and liner

• Clear mascara is amazing for grooming brows and giving them sheen

• Short-handled brushes are smart for easy storage in your bag

• A snack size zip lock bag stores brushes and makes them easy to see

Get optimum performance from your makeup and sleep 8 hours, eat right and clean, exfoliate (with a face cloth) and moisturize your face faithfully (no exceptions) nightly. Best tool of all is an honest smile, enhancing kind thoughts.

Women everywhere: it's very old fashioned to powder the entire face.  Only powder in the middle of the forehead, on the sides of nose, and the chin.  It's modern and much more natural to leave shine on the tip of nose (and prettier too)!

Lip Gloss, a good shiny one with blue undertones, makes your lips look fuller and your teeth whiter!

• Keeping the lids on your products will help keep them protected from bacteria and dirt in the air.
• Store cosmetics and skincare out of bright lights or damp areas. Keeping them in a cool place will keep colors true and creams fresh.

I think most people find it difficult to pick out a concealer and this is a product I'd go to the department store counter for. You will have better luck getting a good color match and a formula that will work with your skin type and skin care regime.

To me concealer is one the most important beauty products that women either don't use at all or don't use correctly.

Don't get stuck in a makeup rut.  Try something new! Have your makeup done professionally. You may not like everything, but you may discover a new color or technique that you’ll love!
