Spray your face with cold water or stand with your head in the air from the freezer for a few moments to reduce redness.
To avoid mascara flake-off or smudging on your face, apply a thin cost of mascara to top lashes only. Then run an eyelash brush through lashes to prevent clumpy mascara build-up.
To enhance your summer shimmer add a touch of blush to enliven your cheeks and bring out your natural color. In order to find the perfect rosiness, take a look in the mirror right after a workout. The tinge of pink that spreads across your cheeks is the color that will work best for you.
When choosing make-up, especially foundation and blush, focus on those that are water-based and non-comedogenic (non-pore clogging) is the best choice.
Use petroleum jelly or cold cream to remove stubborn eye makeup. its cheap and it works (even on waterproof mascara).
For sexy pout, to create a pout enhance center of upper and lower lip line with a darker shade or a lip liner.
Eyeliner should be applied close to base of eyelashes to make them look thicker. A soft pencil is easier to manage.
Make sure you remove all cosmetics with a mild cleanser and water before going to sleep.
For your lips, stick with the glossy glow that bounces off the summer rays. It’s better to choose natural tones but if you want to add some color, apply lipstick on top of the gloss and your lips will look like sparkling diamonds.
When you choose makeup, moisturizers and sunscreens make sure they are hypo-allergenic and fragrance-free.
