Are you going to the party? We will tell you how to look gorgeous even if you are exhausted.

Do you want to look like a star?

Our professional advice will change you into a star.

You have to start your makeup at least 1.5 hours before leaving. Do not hurry – it may spoil the pleasure and effect. If you plan a date, take an aromatic bath and lit candles. But if you plan a crazy evening on a dance floor – choose an energizing shower. Play your favourite music to get into a proper mood. Remember about face scrub – makeup looks better on fresh skin.

Slowly and carefully

This is the basic rule in evening makeup. Apply makeup foundation with a sponge or your fingers, choose a tone similar to your skin colour. What dominates in this season is strong eye makeup.

Robert, an expert, says: "Emphasize eyes with an eyeliner. If you draw a line at the bottom of eyelashes, they will look thicker and it will 'open' eyes. You can use dark glossy shadow on your upper lid (use some also on a bottom lid). If you don’t want your eyes to look like panda’s after a few hours, always use powder eye shadows. Creamy ones smudge more easily. Apply three or four layers of mascara, beginning at the bottom of eyelashes so they appear thicker. Now it’s time for blush – lively (e.g. pink, apricot or peach) and glossy to make you look bright. How to apply it? Smile widely and brush raised part of cheeks."

Lips – choose a lip gloss so they will seem bigger and sexier. Lip gloss is also easier to make corrections than a lipstick. You prefer a stronger makeup? Choose a red tone.

To make your hair use something which increases volume and raises hair at the bottom.

Remember about nails (it’s obvious that you have to do the manicure earlier) – use dark enamel, and about eyebrows. They must be plucked and coloured to make your face more expressive. Use a liner or a shadow similar to your hair colour.

Experts’ advice

  • Do you want to have bright relaxed eyes – apply special drops or make a compress: add a teaspoon of chamomile and dill to two glasses of water, boil for 3 minutes. Drip cotton pads into the brew and put on eyes for 10 – 15 minutes.
  • Before applying mascara, use eyelash curler – your eyes will seem bigger. If you use a white liner on the inner part of your bottom eyelid, it will also hide redness.
  • Avoid orange lipstick or lip gloss – they make your teeth look yellow. Do not get rid of spots before a party (at the same day) – it will look disastrous. Use a concealer instead.
  • Do not pluck eyebrows or remove hair before the party – do it one or two days earlier. Solarium and bronzing cosmetics are also risky – they may live patches. Use bronzing powder instead. And the most important thing in order to look gorgeous – have enough sleep (at least eight hours, similar to top models before going on a catwalk).

12 Winter Makeup Tips
Written by Beauty-tips.net   

cosmetics-winter2

Winter makeup requires extremely different approach than makeup for other season. Why? Because cold weather might be devastating for looks you work on for several hours. In this article we share some interesting tips for winter makeup, explaining what you should avoid in makeup and best alternatives for things that work in summer time but do not work in winter season.

  1. Choose good face cream to apply under your makeup, so it will last long.
  2. If you are going to be exposed to cold weather for longer than 20 minutes, do not use creams that may leave a moisture level just under your makeup, it may destroy your makeup. If you use moisturizer, make sure you choose light consistency moisturizer so skin of your face will absorb it fully before makeup application.
  3. You can use silicone based foundations in winter's cold days, they are good to work with.
  4. To party in winter, choose powder make up foundation, it's more resistant for temperature changes.
  5. If it's really cold outside, avoid liquid foundations, they do not like temperature changes.
  6. Mascara, eyeliners or lipliners should be waterproof – you will be sure that your makeup will stay on.
  7. Loose powder may cause skin dryness and give effect of cracked skin.
  8. Avoid cream blush in cold days – they contain vaseline derivatives substances, not recommended during cold days.
  9. When you choose blush or eyeshadows, pick mousse one and avoid eyeshadows that contain vaseline.
  10. Choose lipstick that contains beeswax instead of lip gloss.
  11. Avoid pink and red makeup colors in winter if you don't want skin redness effect.
  12. In winter time make up is not as much sensitive to cold as to drastic temperature changes. If you change environments from very cold to very hot (from outdoor to indoor), your makeup is in danger – thanks to intensified blood flow to the skin's surface.

An Elegant Winter
Written by Beauty-tips.net   

cosmetics-winter

Bright juicy and distinctive colors, ice shades and deep back and white. All colors intensive and contrastive. These are colors typical for winter types. Winter man and woman are contrastive and such should be colors for them.

"The winter" is a cold type, just like "the summer and winter-summer type". Colorist analysis for "the winter" is extremely difficult. A woman winter might sometimes be wrongly described as an autumn type or a spring autumn. Such mistakes often a result from the fact that she might have an intensive complexion which is similar to one of the autumn types.

Winter men and women should go for cold, distinctive and luminous colors. A winter palette should include bright and clear colors that will emphasize the style and beauty of "the winter" woman. All dimmed and faint colors (like for the summer type) would make her look gloomy and dull. It's best to accentuate this type with gray and silver or black and navy blue. Any steel, silver and white shades would be most appropriate for this type.

The winter type should avoid warm colors such as brown, orange, gold, russet gold or warm green. The winter woman should preserve the purity of her style. Any patterns such as checks and flowers would be inappropriate for her. Striped costumes and geometrical figures, optimally black and white, would be the most suitable. The winter’s attractiveness can also be enhanced with one-colored contrastive clothes e.g. yellow with deep black. Also shiny, glitzy and plastic accessories would be appropriate for this type. Anything flashy and extravagant would be right, provided, its color belongs to the winter palette.

As I mentioned before the winter is often confused with a warm autumn. This is due to many similarities in the complexion of these two types. One of the winter types is "Snow-white". This type has got fair, almost transparent complexion. The skin looks enormously delicate and rarely blushes. Another variation is so called. "Southern type" also called "Mexican". Persons of this complexion have got cold olive shade, that’s why they are often confused with a deep autumn.We will be able to recognize and define this type as it is easily tanned and it has deep olive shade of skin then.

All winter types have dark eye brows and lashes. A winter woman has got deep, red mouth and brown and gray freckles (if any) . Winter types have got ice blue, turquoise, blue, brown and black eyes.

The most frequent hair colors are such cold shades as: blue and black, silver gray, dark brown, white, red and blue, black and red or just black. Ginger should be avoided as it looks too ordinary on the winter type.

Make-up should enhance its sharpness and distinctness. The foundation should be light semi-liquid. The most appropriate shades would be: light pink and beige, and olive beige.

The best eye shadows would include steel, violet, turquoise and emerald green. Brown should be avoided. As far as lipstick is concerned: deep red, raspberry and violet would be appropriate.

We use colorist analysis to achieve an ideal looks. It is especially important for the winter type as it releases its strong personality. Winter is the most distinctive color type so its appearance and attractiveness should be enhanced in a proper way.

In business and workplace relations winter types are always the most remarkable. They might seem as a difficult and demanding negotiator that’s why colors, clothes and accessories are so significant.
