BEAUTY TIP

I WANT A POLISHED LOOK BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!

always cleanse and prep the skin with a light application of moisterizer. after smothing it into the face, allow it to set for a moment to properly dry. blot any remaining moisterizer with a tissue, which may interfere with the rest of your makeup application.......

shape your brows fill them in with a powder a shade or two lighter that your hair color for a natural look.

apply two coats of black mascara to the top and bottom lashes. keep an eye lash comb handy to comb out any mascara clumps. (note: mascara clumps, which are created by partially dried product, can be avoided be regularly cleaning of the mascara wand with a tissue)

next apply a blush (matter of prefference) to the center of the cheekbones with a large blush brush. (make sure your blush looks healthy to the skin and not harsh!)

next add a fleshtone gloss

and finish the skin with bronzer ie: down the bridge of the nose, chin, forehead and right above the cheekbones all the areas the sun hits.

now your look is complete....practice makes perfect you dont always need eyeshadow and foundation to have a polished look, remember less can be more!
