1. Always Apply Makeup On A Clean Face: Now this may seem obvious, but so many people don't wash their face in the morning. I think it's good to cleanse, tone and moisturise morning and night, as over the course of the night your face develops excess oil and dirt, and I could not imagine putting makeup on top of that, so I think it's very important to cary out your skin care routine even in the morning.
2. It's A Crime Not To Prime: I'm sure every girl has heard this saying by now, but it's so true.... Primer is so important, well to me anyway! Using a primer ensures that your makeup will last longer, and I mean who doesn't want that. It also minimises any fine lines and wrinkles. I personally like using a pore minimising primer since I have quite large pores, and it fills them in.
3. Use A Different Concealer For The Undereyes and Blemishes: I have learnt this the hard way. I went through a stage of using my blemish concealer under my eyes, and yeah it covered the darkness but the creasing was crazy bad, It looked horrible. I then decided I needed a thinner concealer, so I bought one specifically for under the eyes, and used it on my blemishes, which obviously highlighted them. So I have learnt the hard way, it is better to invest in two seperate concealers.
4. Blend Blend and Blend A Bit More: this basically applies to anything in makeup, but im specifically talking about the eyshadow department. I think a lot of people just apply the shadow and that's it done, and if that's what you like then keep doing it like that! But I really like to spend a lot of time blending out any harsh lines, blending back and forth in windshield wiper motions, I find this the most effective way. To me I think a perfectly blended eyeshadow look is so beautiful.
5. Curl Those Lashes: I swear by eyelash curlers. By curling my lashes it lifts them so therefor my eyes appear larger. It also separates and lengthens my lashes. You can find lash curlers for $5 so I really reccomend using one if you don't already.
