Shimmering
Bronzer Best for: Having that dazzling glow and a warm fresh
look.
You will Need: Cream bronzer for normal /dry skin and
powder shimmer for oily skin.
How To: Use it on the T-zone of your face to highlight it.
Blusher Best for: Adding a contour to your face and
accentuating your cheek bones
You will need: Colours of the season such as oranges, wine
pinks and maroons. Of course, choose one that will complement your
skin tone
How To: Apply on the cheek bones with a blusher brush, in
sweeping strokes, moving towards the temples. Suck in the cheeks
for easier application
Eye-shadow Highlighter Best for: Highlighting your eyes and
giving them a wide doe-eyed look.
You will need: Silver or gold, either cream based or powder
based shadows
How to: Apply below your eyebrows covering 1/4th of the eye
area below the brow and blend with your fingertips. Also apply on
the inner corner of the eyelids
Eye-shadow definer Best for: Enhancing and defining your
eyes for the fancy night-look
You will need: Dark eye-shadows, powder based either
frosted or metallic, preferably matching your outfit. Night eyes
should glitter, hence let your imagination run riot !
How to: Use on the upper lid, starting at the outer corner
of your eyes in a 'v' shape going towards your brows. Smudge with
a sponge applicator brush or finger tips
Mascara Best for: No make- up is complete without it.
Emphasize your lashes and add that fluttering look to the eyes.
You can go over the day mascara, adding two coats
You will need: Black or coloured mascara for that funky
look. If you already have heavy lashes you could use colorless gel
mascara
How to: Use with a mascara wand without clogging. Lift your
eyelid and start from roots to ends. For lower lashes hold the
wand vertically and use just very little mascara
Kohl Best for: Adding finish and definition to the eyes
You will need: A non- smudge black or brown kohl pencil.
For those with very small eyes use a white pencil
How To: Use inside the lower rim of the eye. To avoid it
smudging, stretch the area below the eye while applying
Lip-colour & Gloss Best for: To get that perfect pout - the
finale ! Accentuate the luscious lips with an array of lip-colours
available
You will need: Your favourite lipstick and a good lip-brush
to give finesse to the shape of your lips. The look of the season
is glossy and shimmer
How To: Begin at the upper part of the lips from the Cupids
Bow moving to the corners of the lips. For the lower lip go
inwards, starting from the outer
corners. If you want the lipstick to last longer, use a dash of
compact on the lips after the first application, smudge-on with a
tissue and re-apply |
|
Last but not the
least, a dash of your favourite perfume is essential and you are
ready to dazzle all ! Transform your look from day to night in a
flash with these make up tricks and make a lasting impact - any
time, any place. Make sure you are the centre of attraction at the
Party Tonight ! |
