Eyelashes and Eyebrows

Let’s talk mascara. Brown is becoming ever more popular because it complements all iris colors. It works on everyone, as does the standard black. And even though it's available, avoid blue and green tinted mascara, unless it matches your ultra-colorful dye job. Waterproof mascara is really not for everyday, unless you're especially weepy.

A water-soluble mascara leaves your lashes in healthier condition, and healthy is beautiful.
No one has the perfect arch without a little help from tweezers or a lot of help from a stylist. All eyebrows need taming, whether it’s tweezing to remove one stray hair or an all-out waxing at the salon. Tweezing is cheap, which is great. And you don’t need an appointment.

Oh, and if you use tweezers...Did you know that some estheticians (that’s a highly trained skincare professional) will create a template for you to use when tweezing? If you want to deal with your brows on a less frequent basis, investigate having your eyebrows waxed at a reputable salon. It hurts, but many women feel the irritation is worth the gorgeous results.

Hey Guys,

I'm sure you have missed the tips and advice on makeup application.
I realize that not so many of us know how to keep how makeup and some don't even know how to store them.

Not all of us may be aware of this, but if we are careless with the use and storage of our makeup, our makeup could end up infecting and damaging our skin.

Well here are a few tips on how to keep your makeup tools and products.
Here are a few suggestions for use and storage of makeup:

1. Keep the makeup products and tools stored in a place that is cool and dry. Exposing these products to direct sunlight should also be avoided.

2. Makeup containers should be closed tightly when not in use.

3. Pencils, whether eyebrow pencils, lip-liners or eye-liners, should always be covered tightly when in storage and sharpened after every use.

4. Products that come in stick form, such as stick foundations and blushes, should be wiped off thoroughly with a clean tissue after every application.

5. Avoid using makeup if suffering from any kind of skin infection. Whatever items that are used during an outbreak should be thrown away, or the infection will only keep recurring.

6. When putting on makeup, use disposable applicators that are clean and dry rather than our own fingers.

7. Never share makeup and makeup tools, even with your mothers, sisters or closest girlfriends.

8. If the product changes in color, texture, smell or even taste, dispose of the product and shop for a new one.

9. If the product's consistency is no longer the same as it was when it was new, never add water or saliva to makeup. Just throw it away and get a new one.

10. We should also remember to wash the makeup tools that we use, the applicators, the brushes and the spongers, at least once a week. There are good cosmetic cleansers out there for this very purpose, but mild soap and dishwashing liquid can also do the trick. We should make sure to dry our makeup tools very carefully before putting them away.

Don't forget you can call or send me an e-mail on bellezza.faces@yahoo.com for makeup ideas and suggestions.
