Make Up Rules


How can I quickly fix mistakes?
Keep a small bottle of makeup remover and cotton buds in your makeup pouch. A cotton bud dipped in makeup remover gets into small areas easily to quickly clean up smeared mascara, blusher that's the wrong color or too-dark eye shadow.


Which kind of eyeliner is best?
It depends on the look you want and the type of liner you're comfortable with. Pencil liners can go above and under your lashes. Liquid liner is meant only for the top lid.

I have small brown eyes and brown hair. What eye shadow is best?
Coordinate eye shadow with your eyes and hair rather than clothes. Light colors will make your eyes appear bigger. So will brown brow pencil or eye shadow on your eyebrows. Apply eye shadow over the whole lid and add only a small amount of darker shadow in the outer corners. Don't line or apply mascara under your eyes as they tend to make eyes look smaller.

How can I make thin lips appear fuller?
Conceal your natural lip line with concealer or a thin layer of foundation that's the same shade as your face.
Using a lip liner, draw a line just above your top lip and along your bottom lip. Now color in with lip liner and then apply lipstick up to and on the new lip line. Work from the center outwards. Finish with lip gloss on the center of the top and bottom.

How do I keep my makeup brushes clean? 
Great brushes can make makeup look flawless but if you don't clean them they will also help you to apply dirt, bacteria and oil residue. Regular washing, at least once a week, keeps them-and your face - clean and healthy.

To properly clean brushes, run them under lukewarm water. Then put a tiny bit of baby shampoo on a clean finger and create lather by rubbing your index finger and thumb together. Now massage the shampoo gently into brushes. Rinse thoroughly and wring out any liquid before leaving to dry on a flat, clean, dry surface. In between washes, tissue off as much makeup residue as possible and keep brushes separately from makeup.
Makeup improves your self-image and has you looking bright, fresh and well put together for work, office and clubbing.
