Concealer trick

Concealer is one of the most important products in the beauty spectrum. But if not done properly, concealer can add to a cakey and creasy makeup. So, rather than simply spending on expensive concealers, try this remedy out to banish those creasing. Just add a tiny drop of oil to your concealer for that immediate hydration and shiny effect. Well, you may also tap a little face oil under your eye area using your fingers. It will nourish your sensitive skin and also provide a shiny and glowy effect. The lines and creases settle in seconds this way.

Eyebrow tutorial

It might sound weird but using hairspray on your rogue brows is just perfect for that dense effect. At times eyebrow hair goes unruly and taming that right looks like a difficult task. Just spray some hairspray on the mascara wand or toothbrush you wish to dispose off. Now, comb your eyebrows the way you want so that it looks natural, bold and dense.  As far as nourishing the eyebrow hair goes, you may use castor oil for stronger and healthier growth.

Know your skin type

Identifying your skin is the answer when it comes to getting that porcelain effect. You need to know your skin type and texture to select the right brands and products for your beauty regime. Accordingly, you can customize your skin care routine to suit your skin type. The main skin types to consider for that perfection are dry, oily, combination, normal and sensitive. The skin type is one of the most important factors as a dry skin might need an oil-based foundation while an oily skin needs water-based foundation. So, the whole agenda is to choose what suits your face and skin and not to pick what your friend had for her wedding.

Eye-make- The right order

Yes, there is a right order and sequence that needs to be followed while you are doing your bridal or simply any makeup. In beauty tutorials, it is said that do your foundation first and then move on to your eye make-up. But experts are speaking differently these days. It gets difficult to wipe away the lines and fallouts of mascara or liner once the foundation and concealer part is done. So, the correct order is to pick your eyes first. Foundation can do a good job of covering up in case there are fallouts.

Lipstick lessons

The brides, who thought, applying lipstick was their cup of tea, think again. Did you know that taking care of your pout was one of the rules for applying lipstick? Well, a moist, soft and crack-free lip helps your lipstick stay longer and instantly update your look.  For that you may apply a serum or oil on your lips with cotton to wipe of the dirt and pollutants. Scrub a little if possible and moisturize. Who would love to see the hue of colours on brides with patchy-lips?

Skin Care

Caring for the health of your skin tops the chart when it comes to getting brownies for your beauty. The maintenance, natural beauty, and glowing skin are must for that photo-ready make-up. An unhealthy and unhappy skin creates a kind of barrier for your skin to look bright. So, hydrate, exfoliate, detoxify, sleep and most importantly eat healthy for that radiant looking skin.

Storage and safety

You keep adding to your makeup collection but forget about organizing and keeping them safe. The right temperature, place and environment matter a lot to retain the properties of your products. Make sure you store them right and donot leave them unattended. The shelf life of your pampering essentials can be prolonged by storing them at room temperatures or refrigerators as recommended. Moreover, your beauty products and tools need regular cleaning too.  Don’t let the creams and chemicals get built up on brushes or don’t let your compact or lipsticks unattended for long. Keep them safe, covered and clean in between for your personal hygiene and care.

Fair weather Friends

A friend in need is a friend indeed. Forget this when it comes to your beauty products. Ditch them without guilt because a product that is apt for the summers might not suit your skin type during winters. Change your products with changing weather if need be. So, switching your make-up products is the key here for the season-ready make-up!

Don’t breath on brushes

 This is something your expert might not have taught you. Refrain from blowing off the excess eye-shadow or blusher load on your brush as your mouth is a home to so many germs. The particles stick to the brush making it unsafe and dirty, hence increasing the chances of bacteria on your brush. Just shake it off or tab it to get rid of the excess products.
