BEAUTY BLUNDERS

WE NEED TO BE AWARE OF THE BEAUTY BLUNDERS WE HAVE ALL MADE AT LEAST ONCE WHEN WE WERE TRYING TO BE YOUR MOST “BEAUTIFUL” YOU.  LEARN WHAT TO AVOID AND HOW TO FIX THE BEAUTY MISTAKES YOU DO MAKE.

1-      THE WRONG FOUNDATION: WE’VE ALL DONE IT. BOUGHT A FOUNDATION THAT WAS NOT CORRECT FOR OUR SKIN TONES, EITHER A LITTLE TOO DARK OR TOO LIGHT.  THE BIG BEAUTY BLUNDER IS WHEN YOUR FACE IS A DIFFERENT COLOR THAN THE REST OF YOUR BODY.  IT IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA TO TEST FOUNDATION IN NATURAL LIGHT, RATHER THAN AN ARTIFICIALLY LIT STORE.  REMEMBER, IT’S BETTER TO GO ONE SHADE LIGHTER, THAN SHADES THAT ARE TOO DARK FOR YOU.  ANOTHER GREAT IDEA IS TO LET YOUR REAL SKIN SHINE THROUGH.  AFTER APPLYING YOUR MOISTURIZER, USE CONCEALER OR FOUNDATION ONLY WHERE YOU NEED IT AND BLEND IT WELL.

2-      A ZIT: IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU’RE IN YOUR TEENS OR 20’S OR 30’S. SADLY EVEN ADULTS GET ZITS FROM TIME TO TIME.  DON’T MAKE IT A BEAUTY BLUNDER BY TRYING TO COVER IT WITH TOO MUCH CONCEALER.  GENERALLY, YOU SHOULD PUT A LAYER OR TWO ON THE PROBLEM AREA. OVER COVERING CAN DRAW MORE ATTENTION TO IT.

3-      TOO MUCH MAKE UP: THIS IS A MISTAKE MANY OF US CAN MAKE.  AS YOU GET OLDER, LET MORE OF YOUR NATURAL BEAUTY SHINE THROUGH.  YOU WILL ACTUALLY LOOK YOUNGER IF YOU DO NOT CAKE ON THE MAKE UP.  GO FOR A NICE LIP GLOSS, MASCARA AND SPARINGLY PUT COVER UP WHERE YOU NEED IT AND YOU WILL LOOK RADIANT.

4-      THE AWFUL LIP LINER: THIS IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE WORST BEAUTY BLUNDERS ONE CAN MAKE. DRAWING THE LINE TOO THICK OR USING TOO DARK OF COLOR.  THE NATURAL LIP LINER COLOR WILL SUFFICE AND IT WILL ACTUALLY GIVE YOU THE DEFINITION YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. GO FOR THE NATURAL LOOK, YOUR LIPS AND EVERYONE ELSE WILL THANK YOU.

5-      THE BROWS: EITHER YOU OVER TWEEZE OR UNDER TWEEZE THEM. RARELY ARE WE IN BETWEEN. YOU SHOULD SEE A PROFESSIONAL FOR THIS AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH AND THEN TRY TO KEEP THEM MAINTAINED.

6-      SPIDER LASHES: THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU KEEP YOUR MASCARA FOR LONGER THAN 6 MONTHS. WHEN YOUR MASCARA GOES BAD YOUR LASHES WILL STICK TOGETHER AND WON’T SEPARATE NICELY.  MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN THE CLUMPS OFF YOUR BRUSH BEFORE USE TO ENSURE SPIDER LASHES PREVENTION AND BUY NEW MASCARA EVERY THREE MONTHS.

7-      FRIZZY HAIR: WHETHER IT HAPPENS NATURALLY OR BECAUSE OF OUTSIDE FORCES, IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAPPEN.  DON’T LET FRIZZ GET YOU DOWN.  TRY MOROCCANOIL OR THERMAFUSE DRY OIL….YOU CAN BLOW DRY OR LET YOUR HAIR DRY NATURALLY AND YOU’LL GET THE SAME PERFECT RESULTS EVERY TIME.

8-      STREAKED SELF TANNER: THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN TRYING TO APPEAR AS IF YOU JUST TOOK A VACATION IN THE TROPICS WITH A STREAKY SELF TAN JOB (IT WILL BLOW YOUR COVER EVERY TIME).  EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE! BE SURE TO EXFOLIATE, USE LOTION AND RUB EVERY WHERE. DON’T MISS A SPOT. AND MAKE SURE YOU THOROUGHLY WASH YOUR HANDS TO ENSURE NO STREAKING ON YOUR HANDS.

9-      FADING OR RUNNING EYE MAKE UP: WHETHER YOU ARE OUT ON THE TOWN OR YOU’VE PARTIED ALL NIGHT YOU’RE LOOKING GREAT…OR NOT.  YOUR MAKE UP IS STARTING TO RUN AND NOBODY IS SAYING A WORD!  IF YOU ARE PLANNING A NIGHT OF DANCING, MAKE SURE YOU DO IT RIGHT.  DO NOT PUT MOISTURIZER CLOSE TO YOUR EYES AND FINISH WITH A POWDER AND YOUR EYE MAKE UP SHOULD STAY IN PLACE.

10-   IT’S JUST NOT YOU: WE HAVE ALL TRIED NEW LOOKS…SOMETIMES THEY WORK AND OTHER TIMES THEY DON’T.  YOU KNOW WHEN A LOOK IS “YOU”. SO KEEP IT.  IF YOU ARE A NATURAL BEAUTY, GREEN EYE SHADOW MAY NOT BE YOUR BEST LOOK AND VICE VERSE. BE TRUE AND BE YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A BEAUTY BLUNDER.
