Poorly applied even the most expensive makeup can ruin our appearance. Look in the Mirror and make sure you Don t make any of the following common makeup mistakes. Heavy foundation base is disturbing makes you look like you re wearing a mask and is also aging As it collects in facial lines and wrinkles. Foundation makeup is not essential nor appropriate for everyone. But if you choose to Wear it apply it sparingly. Blend it smoothly outward to your ears up to your hairline and Down under your jaw for a natural appearance. Extremely Light or White concealing Cream advances visually calling negative attention to itself and creating a Raccoon Eye effect. An under Eye concealing Cream can effectively camouflage circles under your eyes but do choose a color that is the same As or Only slightly lighter than your natural skin color. Apply it lightly from the inner Corner of your Eye to half Way across the Eye area and blend carefully. Heavily pencilled on brows come off looking As if a dark Cloud has descended. Over tweeze your brows to a Fine thin line and your eyes lose their Impact. An Overly thin brow creates a weak insipid impression about your a Upah in Flam Judith Rasban plucked too of if fat Short create a m acc la. Vacant stare. Brows drawn High and rounded look forever surprised. Eyebrows should create an attractive Frame for your eyes. Do Pluck brows across the Bridge of your nose and stray hairs under or above the brow. Do leave eyebrows naturally thick if nicely shaped. Do thin thick brows if they overpower your face but retain natural bowline and Pluck from below the brow not above. Pluck any wild and wooly brows then Brush into place. Bright vivid Eye Shadow attracts negative attention As it shouts see what i be done to my  Light Bright Shadow in Blue Green or Violet can visually Advance and create a Bug eyed effect. Overly Bright they Dull natural Eye color. Eye Shadow is intended to add some dark Light contrast above your eyes and possibly a hint of color harmonious with your Eye colouring or clothing. Do choose a soft muted Shadow in Brown Taupe Gray or fashion colors such As Blue Green Teal Lavender and Plum. Do blend Shadow smoothly up and outward from Darker on the Edge of the lid to lighter under the Bro Bone but never Clear to the brow. Thick heavy dark eyeliner looks harsh artificial and smudges easily. Black under eyeliner is equally unattractive. Think of a Beautiful picture framed Only on the Bottom half. Where is attention drawn Down of course and the picture becomes less important. That is exactly what happens when you line Only the lower lid of your eyes. Your entire expression is pulled Down and the effect becomes glaring when done in Black. Do Frame your eyes attractively with a narrow tapered line on the top lid slightly less on the Bottom and in a softer color such As Brown Taupe slate Blue Gray Navy or Khaki. Blend powdered Eye Shadow in a coordinated color Over the line for a still softer look. Thick heavy Black Mascara creates a stiff cheap and artificial appearance. Mascara is a marvelous tool but Many women tend to glob it on and Black is too extreme for All but the most dark complexioned women. Do choose from medium Brown dark Brown Black Brown or charcoal Gray Mascara. Paint Over lashes two or three times until coverage is sufficient. Separate clumped lashes and remove any Messy looking beads or globs of Mascara. Blazing streaks of Burgundy or Brown toned Blush As Well As the vividly Bright Clown or Kewpie doll circles of Blush often applied too Low or too close to the nose Are forever phoney. No one blushes there or that Way naturally. Do copy nature and Brush a hint of warm color up and outward Over your Cheek Bones where you naturally Blush. A Greasy Shine tends to say you Are hot sweaty tired and just May not make it through the Day. Forget this so called moist and Dewey look. Better to soften the Glare with a dusting of Loose translucent powder to soak up surface Oil reduce the Shine and provide the finishing touch for a soft and fresh appearance. Livid lips in shocking Pink fire engine red and Orange Are screamers of the first order. It s too much too Strong for most women. Blue purple lips Don t shout they just groan looking As though you just emerged from the deep freeze and nearly dead. Do tone Down Overly Bright lip colors. Trade Blue purple for a More natural looking slightly lighter lip color. Brown lip liner rimming your Mouth is another in the forever phoney category. It creates an obviously hard uninviting Edge straight out of a colouring Book. The purpose of lip Pencil is to keep lipstick from bleeding into the creases around your Mouth. If you opt to Wear lip liner do choose a natural color to blend with your lips or a color just slightly Darker than your lipstick or gloss. You la get the definition you want without an obvious line.
