5 Minutes at Home Makeup Tips

By: Rachel Broune

For eyes, apply your eye shadow on wet. Use toner that's alcohol free, an Eyeliner Sealer or just plain old water. Use a sponge applicator or a eyeshadow brush and brush on a light layer of toner/water across the eyelid or in the crease over the eyeshadow. Trick is to mist the eye shadow, not drench it. Or dampen the applicator/brush first and then pick up your color.
Arrange your accessories the night before. While you do that, visualize the makeup as well. For instance, you could decide on a day pink look and in the last five minutes you won't wonder what goes with your pearls.
The process of putting on makeup must always start with clean skin. There is no point in putting makeup on skin that already has yester day's makeup on it-first because you will only clog up your pores and hurt your skin.
Apply foundation and blend. I was always a big sponge user and while I have no problem with them, I have found something even better. A foundation brush gives great coverage without sponge marks. In fact, no one will ever guess that you even have foundation on.
Cheek enhancers are a great way to add a little glow to your complexion for the holidays. Clarins' All Over Base ($25) gives eyes and cheeks just the right amount of liquid shimmer.
Powder your nose and t-zone with loose powder.
A swift way to blend in your eyeshadow is to brush over the top with translucent losse power. This will tone down the colour and blend away any harsh edges.
Start with a tinted moisturizer or foundation, spot conceal any redness and apply under eye concealer. Classified Cosmetics Era Spray Foundation ($55) is a good one.
Essential oils are extremely useful to get rid of cracked heels. One should rub down with a few drops of essential oil frequently. Before going to bed, take a little tub and dip the feet in it. Put few drops of olive oil and transfer it into the tub. And then, dip the feet for a few minutes. Take out the feet and wipe feet with soft cloth. At last, rub with liberal quantity of cold cream and then, wear cotton socks.

For tons of shine you should pick a pink or clear gloss that lets your natural lip hue show.Here the choice is your because you can always choose your favorite color to go with the dress you are wearing.
Translucent lipsticks that allow the texture and colour of your own lips to show through look the most natural and are the fastest to apply. Lip-coloured shades also require less precision and so need less time to apply. Noliplining pencil is required.
