We are going to expose some ways to keep your
make-up looking great all day long, and well into the evening too. The key to
your success will being able to stock your purse or make-up bag with the
correct essentials. Most women have a wide range of beauty supplies at home,
however you must always have a collection of essential beauty supplies ready to
travel with you at any time.
1. Select Your Foundation Carefully. Our first essential item for maintaining your
state of beauty is your moisturizing foundation. Foundation helps to give your
skin even tone and healthy colour. You will also want a moisturizing foundation
with a high SPF to protect your skin from damage due to sun exposure. Another
consideration is to use a non pore-clogging foundation to help avoid any
breakouts of acne due to plugged pores. Not all foundations are created equal,
so you will need to experiment with different types of foundations of discover
one that will not dry out your skin or make it look oily rather than adding a
healthy glow. Don't let the size of the foundation bottle discourage you from packing
some along. Simply purchase a small plastic bottle for your make-up bag and
then refill it when necessary.
2. The Eyes. Since
the eyes are often one of the first noticed attributes in our facial
appearance, it is important to include several palettes of eye shade to allow
for a range of looks. Choose subtle colours during the day so as not to appear
too classy for work. Earth tones also work well to give a natural look and also
help to bring out the beauty of your eyes. Wearing eye shadow containing a bit
of shimmer is optional, but it works well both during the day or evening times.
Evening colour palettes should include smoky gray and black combined with a few
bright colours for more effect. Having a variety of colour palettes will enable
you to create a more dramatic effect if you feel the need to do a touch up
between leaving your day job and heading out for the evening.
3. Blush. You
should consider carrying at least two different colours of blush within your
make-up bag to be used for enhancing your cheekbones. Try a lighter, natural
colour blush during the day to provide your cheekbones with a healthy glow.
During the evening if you are still out and about the town, a darker shade of
blush will help to add a sense of mystery to your appearance.
4. Face Powder Power. Don't forget to pack face powder as this is
essential to set your foundation. Face powder also helps to even skin tone
finish to help your skin appear younger and healthier. Power may also be
applied during the day to get rid of facial shine that comes from sweating or a
build up of oil on the skin surface.
5. Eye Power. Don't
underestimate the power of your eyes when it comes to your overall appearance.
People are often drawn to another person's eyes and this is where mascara and
eyeliner play a big part in how you look. As a rule you should carry both black
and brown mascara and eyeliner for accentuating your eyes. Many people choose
only to use black mascara, however brown mascara may actually make you appear
younger. For daytime use, brown eyeliner is the best choice as it provides a
softer look. Before heading out for an evening event, you can quickly lengthen
and thicken your eyelashes by applying several coats of black mascara. Next
take your black eyeliner and apply a thin line for subtle improvement or go
dramatic by using a thick line. Black eyeliner can also be used to create the
cat eye effect if you are looking to party.
6. Lipstick Magic. Remember to include at least two different lipstick colours in your
make-up bag. First, you will need your general purpose lipstick colour.
Depending on your skin tone, this may include pinks, earth tones or different
shades of red. The second colour should be one that draws attention to your
lips. To avoid getting sore and chapped lips, your lipstick should include a
moisturizer. If you suffer from dry, scaly lips then also include a colourless
lip balm to apply to your lips prior to putting on your lipstick. If you want
to keep looking your best at all times, then it is important to include these
basic cosmetics in your bag. Along with the basic don't forget to include the
fore-mentioned items that can help you go from worn out and tired to looking
energetic and ready to party in a few minutes. The power of a well-stocked
make-up bag cannot be overstated when discussing how to look beautiful, as it
permits you to always look your very best within minutes, no matter what time
of the day or night.
7. The Bag. Ideally
your make-up bag or container should be tiny enough to fit into your purse or
handbag, yet capable of holding enough essential products to keep you looking
your best throughout the day and evening.
