Less is more. Ever notice how some of your friends look best with no makeup at all? No matter your age, too much makeup makes you look worse. If you wear foundation, powder, blush, liner, mascara, eyeshadow, lip liner and gloss on an everyday basis, then you're overdoing it. Tone it down: All you really need is a great mascara, concealer for blemishes and gloss. Add a pop of blush in winter.

How to get Beautiful nails without doing manicures and pedicures
Don't let nails go. Not into manicures and pedicures? No worries. Just make sure to keep nails clean and the same length. If you do want to paint them, don't keep the polish on until half of it's chipped away. Also, there's nothing worse than too-long toenails. Keep nails clipped between pedicures! People tend to judge others by the care they put into their hands and feet.

How to Choose the Right Color Tone
If you have warm skin, opt for golden shades such as caramel and bronze in a darker shade than your skin. Avoid jet-black hair which will wash you out. If you do opt for a golden shade, don't go too light or your hair could turn orange and you'll write in to me and I'll send you to the salon. Can you go blonde as a "warm"? Yes. But it is a delicate process and should be done in a salon, not on your own.
If you are a cool shade, avoid colors such as gold, auburn or copper. They will only highlight the ruddiness of your skin tone. Ash blondes and cool browns work best.
When you go to the hair salon, ask your stylist to bring out swatches. First pick out the colors you are most drawn to, then hold them up to your face near a window where natural light comes in. Ask the stylist to help you determine which shades and tones work best next to your skin.

Natural hair are always hot
Natural hair is always hot If you have super dark hair, lighten your look by going a shade darker or getting lighter highlights. Blonde? Try highlights, especially framing the face. We see too many teens lightening their hair several shades and the look can be super-tacky, not super-fabulous. The trick is to let people assume you were born with sun-kissed hair, not that you gave yourself a bad dye job from a bottle
Tips for teenagers with acnes
Skip the foundation If you have acne the first thing you want to do is slather on the thick foundation. Don't. Foundation is for women over 35. Not only will it cover up your natural beauty, but foundation on a teenager looks anything but natural. Instead, cover up blemishes with concealer, then follow with a powder or tinted mosturizer. Tinted moisturizers tend to be lighter than heavy foundations.
Ways to apply liquid eyeliner
A typical way to apply liquid eyeliner is to line eye from the inside of the lashes outward in one big sweep. You can also line the eye from the middle of the lashline outward. Then finish the line from the inner corner of the eye to the middle.
My third liquid eyeliner trick requires a steady hand. The results are supposed to be wider eyes.
Step 1: Start with a completely bare eye, no shadow or mascara.
Step 2: Apply liquid liner in the upper lashes. Dot the liner into lashes, pushing them aside if need be. The result is not supposed to be a line. It's supposed to look as if the lashes themselves are super thick at the root.
Step 3: Apply mascara.
Step 4: Compare eye to other naked eye and see if you love the results.
How to properly apply mascara
Ace your mascara application with a three-step process:
Step 1: Wiggle the wand left to right at the base of lashes. It's the mascara placed near the roots -- not the tips -- that gives the illusion of length.
Step 2: Pull the wand up and through lashes, wiggling as you go. The wiggling part is key: Wiggling separates lashes.
Step 3: In this final step (which we always skip), close the eye and place the mascara wand on top of lashes at the base and pull through to remove any clumps.

Wear Clothes according to your skin tones
If your complexion is fair,gold with a blend of copper would look wonderful. If you are medium/ wheatish colored, go in for mixed shades of white, beige and bronzy golden. Dark skin toned should wrap up themselves with goldenish copper shades.

Skin care in winters
We all know that the skin is the most sensitive to climatic changes in the cold season. Fortunately, there are some simple and efficient methods in order to have always a great look.
First of all, don’t forget about the solar protection products even if the sky is cloudy and the sun doesn’t seem to appear soon.
Don’t spend too much time at shower especially in hot water. The natural barrier of lipids is deteriorated easily at high temperatures and infections are likely to appear.
Avoid using astringent cosmetic products because the alcohol quantity which exists in their composition encourages the appearance of dehydration, infections or eczemas.
Drink a lot of milk with cocoa as they contain many antioxidants.
If your feet are frozen you can use products containing jojoba oil, avocado and the E vitamin. After that, use a hydrating cream and put on some cotton socks. You will feel the difference in the morning when your feet will be very soft.
Lips are one of the most affected parts of the body. That’s the reason why a lipstick or a gloss shouldn’t be missing from any girl’s bag (try to buy especially those products containing the E vitamin). In the morning, try to massage your lips with a tooth brush as the effect will be of exfoliation. Once a week use honey when massaging easily your lips.
When it comes to hair, the rule is simple: no matter if it’s long or short during winter you should try the leave-in category balm before using a drying device or an ondulator.
Try to apply these tips as soon as possible and they will surely have the desired result in your case.
Don’t forget, I’m always opened to a debate in order to analyse and discover other helpful tactics in order to have a brilliant look also in the “cold season”.
