Mascara guideline

• The most important is, choose multifunction mascara-lengthens, curls and thickens eyelashes..


• For the most dramatic effect,use eyelashcurler before applying mascara to get your eyelashes more curler.


• Pull the mascara out of the bottle from the same direction. Avoid mascara from expose to light/heat and wind as it will cause the liquid hardens easily.


• Place the mascara brush on the bottom lashes. Slowly apply the mascara from the root to the tip of your eyelashes with zig zag motion. Try several positions to get the best result. Try not to blink until you are sure your mascara dries. Apply a second coat for more dramatic effect.


• Apply mascara from inner to outer lashes


• Use cotton bud to clean messy mascara around eyes

Tips for a gorgeous black eyes make up..

Punk smudge
Use a thick of dark cream shadow over kids and smudge before using a black kohl pencil on the creases and corners. To set the colours in place, layer with black powder.

Perfect line
A simple look that defines your eyes, use a pencil on the inner rims of your lids before drawing a thin line along the top lashes. Team the look with brown, shadow for a soft finish.

Cleopatra eyes
A looks that take a little more efforts, start by rimming black kohl eye liner around the eyes several times before you mix in the black shadow. The key to achieve this look is blending the shades together so that they cover the eye socket. To lessen the harshness of the look, layer on gold shadow , especially on the inner corners.

How to choose a perfect foundation for your skin tone..

Make sure your skin is free from make up and walk out to the sunlight..

If your face turns red, that's mean you have a cool skin tone. You may choose porcelain or ivory foundation. If your face turns yellowish, tan or dark, that's mean you have a warm skin tone. You may choose yellow base foundation such as golden or honey..

Make up Tips

I'm sure I've read this somewhere in a blog or magazine, a tip from professional make up artist..
If you are using liquid foundation and you want the best result of it, you should tap the foundation on skin using your fingers first before blend it using sponge..It would look neat & perfectly blend on your skin...I've tried this unintentionally and I kept wonder why my face look different and then I realized, I've applied the foundation with a different method like I used to...So guys, lets try...
