Let's face it Makeup makes most of us girls look good and feel good. It's important to know how to use makeup so you don't have a caked up makeup look, I've added here some makeup tips and the steps for perfect makeup.

I've added a new part on this page about 'preventing pimples' I wrote this based on personal experience. Scroll down to see this part.

Ok lets start at the beginning.

FACIAL WASHING:

To clean off all your makeup and just open your pore so they don't block and cause blemishes start off with a cleanser. I recommend Natural products personally I use a witch hazel with lemon balm avon cleanser Its only $7.99 and it cleans your skin leaving it feeling beautiful. I don't recommend using clean and clear cleansers if you have sensitive skin, {WHICH I HAVE} It aids in adding pimples not destroying them. After cleansing you use a toner this removes any dirt or makeup that the cleansing missed and leaves you feeling refreshed. I recommend an alcohol FREE toner, I love the avon teatree and aloe vera toner! It leaves your skin feeling beautful I use this after my witch hazel. Clean and clear toners aren't very good either especially for sensitive skin.
after toning comes the mosturiser, one that I found it wonderful on my skin which is sensitive is the 'oil of ulay' which is around $7.99 Avons new ANEW mostirizer is around $40.00 but it is totally worth it, It lasts ages and is incrediably beautiful! It leaves your skin feeling great! and clears up your complexion alot. I've found by cleansing , toner and mostirizing daily my skin isn't getting as many pimples. After mozterizing you can add specail treatment to areas that need it, For example clean and clears anti blemish gel, This is good considering its a clean and clear product, But don't use everyday. I find it is better to wait about 5 mins after these step till you apply your makeup.


MAKE-UP:

After you have done all your cleansings then comes your makeup. Depending on what kind of makeup you use. Such as light or heavy makeup these are the steps for a natural finish.
First of all make sure your foundation is the right colour for your skin type otherwise it will look to dark or too pale. Also make sure it is not too thick so if you have freckles You will want to keep those in site other wise it won't look as natural, But if you have lots of freckles then It is ok to cover them a bit if you feel you have to.
[*HINT*PUTTING LEMON JUICE ON YOUR FRECKLES LIGHTEN THEM!]
Then you cover any pimples of dark circles under your eyes with a conceler or just your foundation is fine! again not aplplying too much to make you look *fake*.
Then use a brush to apply the foundation. Start from your undereyes and then to your cheaks. Go up your face when you apply it. NOT down. Then you can add a slight powder if you like which makes it look complete. Powder is over your cheaks and face lightly. Then
use your blusher to hiten your cheak bones. only apply a little to your cheacks, and thats it!


EXTRA TOUCHES

After you have added your make-up you can add some extra touches just to show off your natural beauty just a little more. For example, Apply mascara to curled lashes {I recommend any Maybeline mascaras I personally love the curling one. All maybeline mascaras dont leave clumps and clots plus they last ages. Use gel ad apply tiny amount to eyebrows then brush them. you can add a little brown eye liner to them if you wish.
You can add a touch of lipstick, avon lippys last ages, australis do also, Maybeline also. I LOVE 'kiss and tell' lip lacquer, its a gloss, its just like what stars wearm it comes in a tube from the chemist values around I $13 well worth it, It lasts on your lips for ages! Adding white or cream eye liner to your inner rim on your eye lids opens your eyes up and makes them look natural and bright. If you are having a good skin day you'll only need to apply concellor to places that need it for example dark circles or blemishes. Then blusher {I recommend bronzing balls} They give you a natural sun kissed look.

A FEW MORE TIPS

Well just a couple more tips you might find usefull. When you bluck your eye browns {if you do} then you will know it hurts and isn't very good on sensitive skin. To make is less painful you can use 'baby tooth' gell which is used for babies teeth when they are growing them, it numbs them. Put this stuff over your eyebrows and you won't even feel it!!
If you can't afford to get that then you can use a hot flanel and put wet your eye brows this loosens the hair and makes it easier to remove. Styling your eyebrows one good idea to do this is to draw through the hair the shape you want it to be then bluck around that shape. The point should be level with the edge of your mouth. I won't give away all my tips though!! *LOL* only one more for you. Want a test to see if you have an ideal shaped body? well measure your busts around to the back then measure your hip size. If the match then your size is perfect. well not perfect "perfect" but you know what I mean. New tips: If you get dark circles under you eye, cucumber slices are good. Also used tea bags placed under your eye slowly removes the dark circles if you keep doing it regulary. have yellow teeth? It's a fact that peoples teeth aren't actually white, BUT - of course we want them to be, Baking soda tooth paste by macleans is good to break down the yellow. Even just baking soda with a little water brushed on as a tooth paste then after wards rinse your mouth with water and brush teeth as usual. It works. Trust me. If you like the no-makeup look some days then vasiline is the way to go. You can use it as a lipstick, eye gloss to give you that natural glossy look, And even brush it onto your eye lashes for a fuller look that wont smudge and it mositures your lips etc.

Preventing pimples

I used to get pimples quite often, and I've tried different skin care regines that just haven't worked for my skin, I suggest taking time to try different brands of skin products until you find the right ones for you. As I said I find witch hazel lovely but you might not like it, we are all different afterall. Firstly I'd like to talk about clean and clear, now most of their products I find are not suitable for sensitive skin, it can do more harm than good, but I do find their 'blemish gel' quite uselful for when those pimples do pop up. Ok so lets get to the point, how do help pervent pimples. Alright firstly cut down of fatty foods such as greesy hot chips, you can still eat this of course! but if you're eating these often you might want to lay off them a little bit. Drink plently of water, the human body is made out of about 80% water so we are actually required to drink around 6-8 glasses of pure water a day, boil some water in a jug of a pot and then pour into a one little jug and cool in the fridge, that way the water is cleaner and much nicer. If you are'nt a fan of water you might want to add a little lemon juice for some more taste or try it with some ice. Just make sure you drink plenty of water. Exercise, exercise is good for us in so many ways and it makes you feel good! even if its just a walk around the block, it makes you feel good and when you feel good you look good! cleansing, toning and mostirizing daily, morning and night, morning because when you sleep your skin lets out toxins and cleansing in the morning will clean your skin, toning removes excess dirt, and mostirizing keeps your skin from drying out. I recommend trying alcohol FREE cleansers and toners and with natural products such as aloe vera in them. For Girls, I found taking a supplement of EVENING primrose oil is wonderful for the skin, taking 1-2 daily in capsule form prevents pimples so much and it also helps in other ways such as your nail growth, your hair, and it helps so much also with the effects of p.m.s such as headakes, soreness, feeling irriated, you know what i'm talking about.

I hope all this information will help you out, please remember that TRUE beauty does come from the inside. Once you find the beauty inside yourself, you truelly are beautiful. And I believe EVERYONE in this world is beautiful in their own way.
