Cut Your Beauty Expenses With Natural Makeup
One look that is universally flattering, a look that makes older women look younger, which makes younger women look prettier, is the barely there, no makeup look. At least it appears as if you aren’t using any makeup. As if you were born with that radiant glow.
Eyes are sparkly. Lips and cheeks are rosy. Skin looks gorgeous. Wait a minute, is she wearing makeup. Can’t really tell. Now that’s the kind of reaction you want from people who look your way.
The idea is to wear makeup that is barely there. Apply only what you need and nothing more. Choose your colors carefully. The trick is in the color and texture of what you use on your face and how you apply your makeup.
If you have good skin, you do not even need a makeup foundation. All you need is a moisturizer with SPF and a light dusting of translucent powder for your base.
If your skin is uneven, a tinted moisturizer should help even it up yet let your skin show through so you don’t look made up.
If you have pimples, calm them down first with ice. Then apply a touch of concealer to hide them. One with a greenish tinge would neutralize the redness of these angry pimples.
If you have panda eyes, lie down, close your eyes and put a slice of raw potato over each eye. Rest for ten minutes with the potatos on your eyes and let the stuff in the potatos lighten your dark circles. Then apply concealer only on the dark circles. A yellow tinged concealer would neutralize the dark circles more effectively.
For your cheeks, if your skin is oily, then you need a powder blusher. Get a large powder brush to pick up the color. Pat the brush to dust off the excess. Then run the brush lightly over your cheeks, forehead, chin and nose to give your face that radiant glow.
If you have normal or dry skin, use a cream blush. With your finger tips, dab a tiny dot of cream blush on the apples of your cheeks and blend in thoroughly for that rosy flush.
You don’t need much eye makeup. Overdone eyes are aging. You just need two neutral shades. Maybe a light peach or beige or warm brown, depending on your skin tone. And a dark brown for contouring and lining your eyes with. Use an eyeshadow brush to apply the lighter shade over your eyelids. Then line your eyes with an eyeliner brush, using the dark eyeshadow.
Finish off with a coat of black or brown mascara. Black looks great on olive or darker skin and on brunettes while brown looks more natural on blondes.
Pick a lipstick in a rosy hue a few shades darker or brighter than your natural lip color. Use a lip brush to paint that lipstick on your lips.
If you want lip gloss, get vaseline. Put a dab of vaseline on the back of your clean, dry hand. Pick up some lipstick with your lip brush and mix that with the vaseline for that rosy tint. Apply the mixture on your lips.

Eye Make up Tips
Eye make up can be a tricky thing to master. When I first started getting to the age where I was allowed to wear the stuff to school, my mom never allowed me to wear eyeliner. Being rebellious, once I got to high school I wore a ton of it. Probably too much, in fact, although hindsight vision is always 20/20 and at the time I thought I looked really cute with my raccoon eyes. I learned a lot about eye make up from those teenage magazines with pictures of shirtless television heartthrobs in them, but they seemed to leave some very important parts out.
Always check your concealer blends into your foundation, matching the same tone as your skin. The secret is to go for colour-correcting make-up. If you have blue around your eyes, choose peach tones; if red, go for yellow.When using a concealer, choose a lightweight moisturiser (gel-like hyaluronic acid eye creams are perfect) to keep your skin looking fresh. Panda eyes will only enhance dark circles. If you end up with black panda eyes, it may be due to the shape of your lashes.
As an added attraction many of us have that slightly slanting shape to our lids and the immediate area surrounding our eyes that enhances our female allure and mystery. Forget all those beauty pundits that are telling women what color eyeshadow or liner they should be using to accentuate this skin tone or that eye shape. Their prognostications are aimed at their own bottom line and that is their self-importance and keeping that profitable job in the media or PR without so much of a thought for any minorities.
If there are no skin blemishes there may be no need for foundation. Apply cream concealer using a concealer brush on the eye lids and under the eyes followed by applying foundation where needed only. When applying powder to an area around the eyes, for reducing shine and setting the concealer, use a sponge and not a powder puff. A sponge will allow you a finer application and not allow powder to set in wrinkle lines (which creates a “plastic” artificial look). This is especially true for mature skin.
Then add some baby pink blush just to the apples of your cheeks. Using a brush the same size of the apples of your cheeks works best. Smile and place your brush against your apple. Does it look too big, too small or just right? You’ll be able to tell when you’ve got it right. Tap the excess blush off and tap it onto the apples of your cheeks. It’s easier if you’re smiling while you do this. Dust your brush off on a piece of tissue then gently blend the blush back towards your ear a bit.
Most mascara come in a tube that has a brush within its tube. But nowadays, there are many variants coming up. Some have lengthened brush bristles while others have bristles made of finer materials. The Jan Marini Intervention Mascara is on of the hot picks of the season. It has conditioning agents that gets you natural looking eyelashes that are not only dark and long but are also conditioned to prevent any dryness or breakage. Moreover, it is smudge-proof so that you can afford to be a little careless with it on. Just sweep the brush from base to the tip of your eyelashes and get an evenly coated spread.
To begin with the face make-over be sure you have the tools and materials ready which is your make-up kit. Then apply foundation that is suitable to your skin tone. Don’t forget to check the color of your face in daylight and be sure that it matches your neck. If there is any spot or discoloration apply concealer followed by light powder for a natural finishing look. To reshapes the brows use darkening pencil or brush up in place with a little sweep of clear mascara. Softly retrace penciled area (from lashes outward) with black eye shadow. Remember to make sure that the eye shadow is not so thick but just right for your eyes to be a little outstanding.
Select a foundation that matches your skin tone and is appropriate for your skin type. If you tend to break out, look for oil free, non comedogenic cosmetics. Apply moisturizer before your foundation for a smoother look. Use a sponge and apply foundation in a downward motion from the forehead down to the chin. If you have blemishes or dark circles, apply concealer after the foundation. Brush on loose powder to set. Apply powder using a large brush in the same downward motion.

How to Minimize Panda Eyes
One’s age, lack of sleep, poor diet, busy lifestyle, and genetic predisposition, are common causes of panda eyes, or dark circles under the eyes. Because the skin under our eyes is thin, it is at a higher risk of damage from products such as makeup and harsh environmental substances. Fortunately, there are things that one can do to minimize panda eyes.
1. Implementing a healthy lifestyle is one way of minimizing panda eyes. Exercising regularly, drink lots of water (8 glasses a day), eating a healthy diet that includes fruit and vegetables, and getting 7 – 8 hours of sleep a night, will help improve the health of the skin and reduce panda eyes.
2. Quality organic eye creams are important to reducing panda eyes. These eye creams will nourish and hydrate the skin, while nourishing the skin with much needed vitamins and minerals. They not only reduce dark circles but help to reduce puffiness around the eyes. As well, there are eye creams for specific skin types such as dry skin, oily skin…etc.
3. Organic moisturizers are also an effective way to reduce panda eyes. These moisturizers penetrate the skin and nourish it with vitamins and minerals to leave it smooth, soft, and healthy. These moisturizers also hydrate the skin which is essential to promoting good skin health. Massaging it into the skin also helps improve circulation, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen needed to heal and rejuvenate the skin. They help reduce the signs of skin aging, dark circles under the eyes, wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, and sun damage.
4. Wearing sunglasses will minimize panda eyes. The sun can darken the skin around the eyes by increasing melanin levels. Wearing sunglasses with a high SPF factor can eliminate damage to skin caused by the sun.
5. Eye concealers are effective at covering panda eyes. There are various shades to match your skin type. Applying the concealer will cover the dark circles and make them less visible. Make sure you do not apply too much concealer as it will only make your eyes stand out in an unnatural way.
6. There are surgical methods to minimize panda eyes, but they are expensive. Although it is effective, one has to be aware of the side effects.
7. There are specific facials that can be used to reduce dark circles. There is a special hot eye wax which increases circulation and reduces panda eyes. This hot wax treatment cleans out the toxins, bacteria, and debris from the skin. The skin is nourished and the skin’s elasticity is restored which helps reduce dark circles under the eyes.
8. One can use natural homemade eye treatments to treat panda eyes. This can include laying cucumber slices over the eyes or laying tea bags over the eyes.
Because our skin is susceptible to so many irritants that can cause damage, protecting the skin has become a normal part of our daily care routine. When trying to minimize panda eyes, the key is to repair, restore, revitalize, and apply nourishing and protective eye skin care products that are all-natural.
