Viva La Lashes, Nude Skin and Matte Lips

Summer is here at last, and there’s no better time to enhance your appearance than now.

Bold lashes

Bold lashes are something almost every girl aspires to have. We say … fake it until you make it! Applying faux lashes is easier than you think.

I recommend picking a full lash. Look for lash bulbs that are closer together for a natural look. Make sure to fit the lashes to your eye size. Always cut off the excess from the outer corners. (Tip: Do your makeup first!) Glide dark lash glue on the lash strip and place the center of the strip to the base of the top lash line using tweezers. Guide the lash along the lash line to set in place. The glue is light gray when it is wet and dries black.

Nude skin

Keep your skin absolutely flawless whether it be either matte or dewy, the choice is yours! I love a little light brown shadow along the lash line for a clean subtle smokey eye. Help brighten up your sparkling peeps by lining the inner rim with a cream colored pencil.

Matte lips

The key to a great matte lip is exfoliated moisturized lips. Forgot to pick a matte lipstick? No worries, just use a lip pencil for a well defined pout.
