Makeup Tips and Advice

Dress those Droopy eyes

Go halfway with the eye, lifting the eyeliner straight and out towards the eyebrow as opposed to going along the eye shape. Apply light shimmer in the inner corner of your eyes which will open it up and make it look bigger.

Curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler and apply lengthening mascara which will open up the eye, making it less droopy. Lengthening mascara will thicken and lengthen your eye lashes because it is formulated with fibres which add length to your eye lashes.

Apply light eye shadow on the eyelid and under the eyebrows to highlight your eyes and give it a better look.

Ideally, go for subtle colors as the droopiness will go unnoticed and will not be attention grabbing.

Dab away those dark circles

Use a color corrective concealer with a yellowish tinge. Apply the concealer with your fingertip lightly, patting it outwards.

Use a desired foundation all over your face including the concealed area to get the desired cover.

Set it by brushing a translucent powder.

Eye masks and eye creams are best to moisturize and desensitize your eyes and reduce puffiness. Most importantly, drink lots of fluids and get a good rest.

Toning Thin Lips

Use a lip plumper for your lips before applying the lipstick. Outline your lips with a lip-lining pencil of a tone darker than your lip color and apply a lighter shade which is glossy to give the mouth a pout.

Tiny Thin Eyebrows

Avoid using dark black or dark brown eyebrow pencils as the strokes are very hard and unnatural. Instead, use a medium brown eye shadow with a thin brush. Apply it lightly and paint the stroke in.

Deter the double chin

After doing your complete makeup, use a darker tone like a brown blusher and apply it under the chin area. This will give the depth effect without overdoing it.

Cover those plump cheeks

Find your cheekbone and apply the blusher on it. The blusher should be darkest under the hollow of your cheekbone and should lighten as you move upwards. This will give your plump cheeks a chiseled effect.
