Best Makeup Trick
I actually discovered this yesterday. First apply black eyeliner, I usually like to wing it (but my boyfriend is not a big fan, so I just keep it to a regular lined look nowadays). Afterwards, I sweep a bit of eyeshadow just on top of the liner, and it transforms it to a beautiful colored liner. This saves me the trouble of having to buy multiple colors of eyeliner. I hope you guys like this trick and use it too!

I definitely go with the "less is more" approach and try out products in "worst-case scenaros" to see how they work: like wearing items in humidity (or rain) or hot days before a "big use". Then I know how they will react based on situation without ruining a "big moment".
my best makeup tip
to get killer cheek bones - I use a really light cream blush (i have light skin - you can use appropriate color) on the area where my cheekbones are - then I apply a power blush over - blush stays put and looks really sculpted
Lights! Camera! Action!
LIGHTING LIGHTING LIGHTING~! Ensuring optimal lighting, not too dark of course, but not too bright either, allows you to realistically judge your make-up job, without being too critical!
Makeup Tip
Moisturizer...moistureizer...moisturizer!! It definitely helps to make your skin look its best.
Best tip
Give yourself some time you need to blend
Best Makeup Trick
Being a vegan my skin is naturally healthy so I don't have to wear makeup! For special occasions, I'll wear a little kajal eyeliner on my bottom lid and a little bare mineral type powder.
Best Makeup Trick
My best makeup trick is exfoiliate my skin on a regualr basis. Keeps my makeup looking great! :)
Best Tip
Always use anti-wrinkle cream under eyes, then apply moisturizer with sunscreen. I do this am/pm and it really does make a difference.
My best makeup trick
My best makeup trick is to use the lightest concealer I can find, under my regular foundation, to hide dark undereye circles.
