Any cool makeup tricks?

Wow. Sorry cap1981 but you wore me out! All you need to do is wear eyeshadows with some red in them--browns, plums, purples, roses--and combine them with colors that match what you wear (like grey or brown or navy). Do your eyes change color depending on what you wear? If wearing green clothing makes your eyes look greener, then wear green with the above red-based shades. Try soft pinky-plum all over, medium brown-plum above crease, and line with deep forest green. AMAZING!Any cool makeup tricks?
Putting a tiny bit of shimmer (try white shimmer eyeshadow) in the corner of your eyes will open them up.Any cool makeup tricks?
For eyes to look bigger, you may want to draw a white eyeliner around the eyes and then a black eyeliner around the white line.
touch of green on clothes.. so people looking at you are directed from ur clothes to ur eyes
your answer is in here somewhere-- i typed this out for someone else, but read and it should be clear:





First of all print this out.





Go to a reputable salon, get a good cut (go in with an open mind and tell them you want a great cut...you can also ask for references, or get there like an hour early and watch them do the person who had an appointment before you-- just to see how they react, see if they get what they really asked for.) Ask for some natural highlights (it's always best to start small and work up-- you can always add, it's more difficult to take away). Ask them for specific instructions on how to style it...maybe ask for a way to do it for special occasions and how to do it for every day. ask them what type of hair products you need (beware they will try to sell them to you there-- just tell them your mom or someone is going to get them for your birthday, but you wanted to know what to tell them to get) ask them specifically what each product does--then go to a store like Sally Beauty Supply and ask the ppl who work there what to get-- it's cheaper that way.





ALSO MOST IMPORTANT--- get your brows done. Get a nice arch. they can do this at the salon to start. then you can buy tweezers and keep them up on your own. your brows frame your face, they have the most impact on your look (don't believe me? Look at a magazine and draw brows straight on a model and see how it affects her look.)





Go to a make-up counter at a mall or go to MERILL NORMAN (the best makeup store ever, but a little pricy) and ask them for a lesson (shouldn't cost much if anything--if you're watching pennies ask them first. also if you like a product ask them to write it down) beware tho-- they tend to apply with a heavy hand. tell them you want a very natural look to start and ask them if you can watch how they do it. (You can also watch what not to wear on TLC-- they have a whole make-up section on that show every time.)





apply a light moisturizer to a freshly washed face-oil free if you need it- good skin care is the most important. you can also apply a bit of a shimmer with revlon skinlights-or simialr product- apply around eyes especially, but make sure to blend it in.





if you need to apply foundation do so-- this will even out your skin tone and make everything appear smoother-- just make sure to blend it all the way down-- don't just stop at your jawline...you'll look like someone drew a line on your face and colored half only. make sure it all blends in. apply a powder right after to minimize shine.





Eye makeup-


1st of all get the right colors. if you have blue eyes get a nice deep blue color (really, don't be afraid--i'll explain) If you have hazel or green go with a nice deep purple shadow. if you have brown go for a pink-ish looking shadow. pair whatever eye color you have with a dark brown and a light brown or white shadow. apply the white or light light brown all over your eye, from the corner by your nose all the way out to the corner of your eye. apply from right under your newly tweezed/waxed brows to your lashes. all over your lid. next apply the color that goes with your eye color (for instance blue shadow for blue eyes) apply this just slightly above the crease in your eye (to find crease open your eye and see where the skin folds). apply from corner near nose out to the outer corner. do not be alarmed if it looks like alot. take the darkest brown and apply a small line into the crease of your eye-- where it folds. this will make your eyes look larger and younger. this should be a thin line from the inner corner near your nose to the outer edge where your eye stops creasing...follow the crease all the way--make it look deeper. do not bring the line down to the outer edge of the eye-- this will make the eye appear small. do not line the eye underneath all the way-- you can go to the middle, but don't do it all the way-- that looks tacky and makes your eyes look super small. Take your ring finger and smudge all this a little, blend it in. use your ring finger because the other fingers will exert too much pressure and that will cause wrinkles later in life. If you feel comfortable using an eyelash curler, then do it (they don't hurt as long as you don't pull away while your curling--and they make a whole lot of difference in your eyes--makes them look huge instead of just big) and follow immediately with mascara-- try using waterproof/ smudge proof b/c it works the best. if you're going for an evening look you can line your upper lash with the dark shadow, just make sure that it is a thin line-- -don't do too much. Play around with it-- that's really the only way you will learn. ALWAYS use make-up remover (oil free if you need it) b/c other wise you'll never get all the make-up off w/o really scrubbing your skin, and the mascara will create dark circles under your eyes-- making you look older....





light blush on the apples of your cheeks -- a little at a time, right where your cheeks get round when you smile, and a light or clear lip GLOSS will take care of make-up.





clothes--- get something that is flattering to you. in my opinion classic is always best, and every woman needs a nice pair of white pants-- they can be dressy and casual depending on what you wear with them. make sure they are long enough that you can wear heels with them (nothing makes legs look better than heels-- but make sure you can walk in them.) black and white are always a good idea-- very classic and red and white is always good too. Pink looks good on almost everyone. NEVER WEAR TAPERED LEG PANTS...NO MATTER WHAT SIZE YOU ARE IT WILL MAKE YOUR BUTT LOOK HUGE! a nice skirt (not too hoochie, please-- a below the knee legnth in the 1950's look is very in now) go to a store and find someone who works there-- find someone that is wearing an outfit you like and ask them for help. ppl who work retail normally love to pick out clothes for other ppl...just make sure to tell them what your budget is.





get a nice body wash that has moisturizer in it-- i love olay body wash-- it saves time of putting lotion on...nail polish is good, but get a flattering color. fingers and toes do not have to match, but if your going somewhere important that is alway a nice touch -- the devil is in the details! Jewelry- understated is best! if you're going to wear a good size necklace do not wear dangly earrings--that's too much. find a look you like (look at pics from awards shows/ on the red carpet is good, so are magazines) and just copy it...also--perfune is key! find something that you like-don't switch out all the time find something you like and make it YOUR SCENT-real perfume tho not body spray b/c that always smells cheap and never lasts. to Apply a nice perfume: one spray on the back of your neck, on the inside of each elbow and one on your chest (never on clothes-- always on skin) the body heat will keep you smelling it-- but you don't want to be able to smell the perfume from three feet away-- you want to have to get close to smell it-- -also you can dab a bit behind your ears if you like. please apply deodorant/ anti-persparant (i hope i really didn't have to say that).





get a good magazine every few months to keep up on trends and styles-- cosmo is good-- it's mostly reasonable.





hope this helps!
