A collection of tips on how to begin with beauty makes the perfect starting point for a beginner to emerge and hopefully begin creating their own regimen much easier. Below is just such a collection that will hopefully assist the eager novice into eventually becoming a pro when it comes to beauty.
For beautiful nails, put top coat on top of your nail polish every time. Topcoat will not only keep your nails looking shiny, it will extend the length of time between polishing. Avoid substituting clear nail polish for topcoat as it is not the same product, and will not provide the same benefit.
Brighten up your eyes with this natural look: apply a light, neutral-colored eye shadow to your entire upper eyelid. Look for sand, khaki, beige, or fawn colors. This will neutralize any redness on your lids, which can make you appear older and tired. Add drama by smudging a darker shade on the lids just in the crease.
To make red lipstick last longer, apply powder and lip liner to your lips before applying the lipstick. First, powder your lips with your usual face powder. Next, draw a line around your lips and fill them in with a red lip liner. Finally, apply the red lipstick on top of the powder and liner, blotting with a tissue to remove any excess lipstick.
If you are constantly fighting problematic pimples, talk to your doctor about getting a prescription for Retinoid. Retinoid prevents blemishes by keeping pores small. It also fights the appearance of aging by smoothing out wrinkles and fighting sun damage. You may want to couple it with a high SPF sunscreen.
You can make your lipstick last a bit longer by taking an additional step when you are applying it. Simply blot your lipstick between applying the different layers and you will find that the life of your lipstick will be prolonged. You will find that you will not have to reapply quite as often.
One of the most important things to remember is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you are confident, healthy and take care of yourself than you are already beautiful. Don't let the words of others bring you down when you feel great about yourself after working hard!
Instead of simply applying lipstick directly to your lips from the tube, invest in a good lip brush. This allows you to create a more well-defined shape that does not smear or smudge around the mouth. Pucker up, then pull your finger through your lips to prevent any lipstick from smudging on your teeth.
Wearing sunscreen is a fool-proof way to protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays. When you are comparing different brands and types of sunscreen, you should look for products that contain healthy skincare ingredients and antioxidants. These ingredients nourish the skin while protecting it, keeping it supple and youthful.
Applying Makeup
When applying makeup before a photo shoot, school pictures or any other photography session, favor matte finishes over shimmery ones and make sure that you apply your makeup under natural light. Shimmery shadows, blushes, lipsticks and powders will look too shiny in a camera flash. Applying your makeup under natural light gives you the best idea of how your makeup will actually look in the photos.
Use a light moisturizer before applying makeup. Moisturizers are great for your skin but also help spread your makeup evenly. Your makeup will not look blotchy if you use a moisturizer. This is a great way to make your makeup last longer and keep your face with a fresh look.
It's true that inner beauty should triumph in terms of what "real" beauty is. That said, you still have an outer beauty that can always be refined and bettered. You can always improve upon your outer beauty to match the inner beauty that you already have, and hopefully these tips gave you advice on how to do that.
