Top 3

These are the 3 things you are doing WRONG with your everyday makeup look and your smoky eye. Listen up ladies this is serious. Do you constantly find yourself looking at pictures saying you can copy that look and end up looking like a Kardashian on a night out, yeah imagine that. Maybe you end up looking like a drag queen, those are always fun makeup tutorials, you know besides your everyday look. Seriously, seriously... Without further ado.....




 3. GLITTER
Now some of you may be thinking, glitter is not everyday, others might say i use shimmer there's a difference, and the other ones may be bored and click off at this very moment..... 3....2....1. Either way glitter, shimmer, sparkles, we all use it one time or another why not use it right. Apply you glitter with a loose powder to give it a more natural look! Glitter makes an eye really stand out.



2.BLEND
Blending is s important I can not stress it enough, you, need, to, blend. Some looks may be intentionally not blended however everyday looks are pretty natural meaning you need to, let's say it together *Blend*. An elf lending brush is $1 at Target or Walmart, while a normal applier is doable too. If you only want the pro stuff MAC 224 blending brush is one of my favs! 




1.HIGHLIGHT
Not too say some people don't highlight most people do, whether it be inner or outer corner eye, or just below the brow, you highlight. Most common with white. However if you do not BLEND!!!!! or use too much then you will definitely get that drag look. 


Let's review too much highlight bad, blending good, and glitter good IF used correctly. I hope you enjoyed as always and that you share, comment, like whatever. QOTD: Your makeup pet peeve?

3 ways you are beautiful the way you are! Hopefully this makes you feel better when you are feeling down! It might just make you look at things differently.


3. Everyone is unique and has a talent! Find your talent, and trust me no matter how hopeless it may seem, you have one. Read about what you love and learn things! Knowledge can also set you apart from others.
                                   


 2.Everyone is beautiful! I know you may not believe it, but you are. Writing this I can't help but hum 'You are beautiful in every single way'.




1. Finally the last reason. Someone loves you know and someone will love you. There is someone for everyone and it doesn't matter if you are a nerd in high school or middle school and everyone hates you, so you think. Later in life, someone will be there! Please always remember things get better! Your happy ending is just a moment away, just remember to click play. Enjoy life, it goes by fast.

Sometimes, with a harsh smokey eye, a bold lip, or a dramatic cat eye it can overpower your face and that is the last thing you want from your makeup! These are the top 3 ways to soften your makeup look!




3. Blush 
Blush can sometimes overtake your face, make you look sickly, or work against your makeup look. While this picture is an exaggeration, the sad truth is it happens. To soften this look is simple. Remember that pesky foundation that stays on your brush after application don't wipe it off just yet. After applying blush pat the foundation over your existing blush. The blush is still visible, however it looks like a layer of skin between you and the blush making it a more natural look.



2. Bronzer
If you don't already use bronzer it is a great option. Sometimes foundation can be overbearing and foundation can bring the sun kissed glow back, if you apply it correctly that is. Above the brown areas are where you apply. It is basically used for the frame of your face. Think of it as adding some dark to the areas that sun naturally would hit you.







3.Eyeliner 
This can soften your look immensely. When you use blackest black eyeliner, a thick line, or a dramatic cat eye you may need a softer touch. Using a black eye shadow and a defining brush to set your eyeliner for a softer feel. Another way is to Take a white eye shadow or eyeliner and place it at the bottom outer corner of your eye to brighten and again add a softer look.

I hope you enjoy this. I thought this was necessary as many people are beginning to get back into fall makeup these are ways to soften your looks and ease into fall.

Remember Old Hollywood Glamour? Probably not, considering most of us our wannabes. These are the Top 3 actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age. Enjoy!



3. Now I love Marilyn Monroe, as much as the next girl but I find this sort of amusing. A lot of girls look up to her as an amazing goddess, essence of perfection, an angel on Earth if there where one. The sad actuality is,  she first as a young lady (meaning 20's) wanted to be THE sex icon, she got her wish. Everyone then thought of Marilyn Monroe as this sexy Hollywood actress. Later in life, as we all do, she regretted this in some ways I guess she realized she wanted to be smart rather than sexy. Well for some minds it was a little too late for her to change, and for others she was a genius. This is probably why you are scratching your head right now thinking 'Wait Marilyn- What??'. Not by any means does this make her a bad person, no! I love her famous white dress and all her style. She obviously must have been some kind of smart because when you think Old Hollywood Glamour you thing Marilyn Monroe. I guess we owe her a lot for that, or at least Hollywood does.



2. Of course we had to add Audrey Hepburn. I remember her from my fair lady! Didn't she say "Paris is always good idea." With a quote like that she has to be in the Top 3. From her graceful style, to her love for accessories and her always flawless look., sort of make you wonder how? I bet now you are wondering what foundation these top 3 used, must be doing something right in this photo she looks flawless!! Even her eyebrows are perfect. I love Old Hollywood and if you are not all about Marilyn Monroe then maybe Audrey is more your style. Maybe we love her because she is British? Or maybe she is a just an amazing actress. Either way she definitely deserves a spot on the Top 3.


                              


1. Rosalind Russel- She is by far my favorite. In every movie she seemed to add this grace and elegance to each character. I first loved her acting in Auntie Mame, one of my favorite movies of all time. Her character, so cultural and poised. Now don't get me wrong she was no snob. She had some of the most odd experiences too, she had traveled everywhere and was certainly inspirational. Who wouldn't want to be an Auntie Mame?  She also had one of my favorite Old Hollywood Glamour lips. The orange lip. Any skin tone can pull of the 'Auntie Mame Orange Lip'. If you haven't seen Auntie Mame, she will open doors for you doors you never dreamed existed. (Quote from the movie)

I hope you enjoyed this Top 3. I know I definitely admire these women for their amazing taste in fashion and those ever so bold Old Hollywood Glamour lips. Don't forget to subscribe if you enjoyed this. Comment below who is in your Top 3!

__________________________________________ With all this Back to School talk I can't help but feel a little sad. Summer actually does not even end until September 21! Let's make it last!!



3. Summer foods and drinks! Nobody ever said you had to stop drinking or eating those delicious summer beverages/foods. In the summer spirit start the day (before school or work) with a some summery fruit to start of a still summer, day!





2. Just because school starts does not mean that popsicile you have loved since you were 10 disappears! Break them out and have a treat, makes for an awesome after school snack!

1. Go to the pool!! If your local pool or your friends pool stays open longer, take advantage of it! Go to the pool relax. Alternative(since not everyone has a local pool or beach option) is a spa day. I know, how is that summer? Simply use your summer scents and most colorful bath bombs, and also of course cucumber mask.


I hope you enjoyed this, although it is sad summer is ending fall is still exciting!I hope none of you are depressed about fall, if you are these tips will help you hopefully.

When you have been doing your makeup forever, you might think you know a thing or two. Just when you thought you knew Cosmetic/Beauty School says otherwise. These are the 3 things that you have been doing WRONG while applying makeup.



3. Primer

This is a no brainer, if you do not already know about primer it is key to a flawless look, or any look for that matter. As Napoleon Perdis says "Not to Prime is Crime". Think of primer as the base coat, like on your nails. It protects your nail and strengthens it. Primer helps your face for the present, it holds your makeup in place, and strengthens it for the years to come. A key element to applying makeup. Whenever I ask my friends (outside of beauty) what they think, they say "Primer?? What's that??" or "Isn't that just paint??" So I thought I would add this to top three.

  

2.Eyebrows


First of a key element to eyebrows to make them shaped, it to take a mascara wand, clear mascara is best, and pull the wand on your eyebrow away from the face to give it shape. The clear mascara will hold it in place. In Beauty School, they teach you that eyebrow common sense is to just follow the shape of your brow, however your common sense is WRONG! Of course you should know that, the brow should start above the beginning of your eye, and the crease should be above the end of your iris, but how do you properly fill in a brow? Well, beauty school states that you go the opposite way of hair growth, with powder, which allows the eyebrow to lie on the powder making it more realistic. With an eyebrow pencil you should do the same except after going opposite direction, go forward to cover and imperfections.



1.Eyeliner


It is simple to say you know or thought you knew how to apply eyeliner, but do you really? According to cosmetology people will naturally apply eyeliner from the inner corner to the outer and are finished, this method is WRONG. Whether you are using gel liner, a brush, power, pencil, crayon, or roll up eyeliner this is the right way to apply it. Start in the inner corner and move your lining utensil to the middle of your eye, stop. Next go to the outer corner of your eye and move to already existing liner. This is also is relevant to lower lash liner, or water line. This method, the correct method, will prevent bumps and imperfections and is sure to impress your beauty school teacher.


A lot of this I learned in on http://www.totalbeauty.com/ it is a really cool site you can learn tons about makeup. Hope you enjoyed.
