Mix a dot of foundation and a dot of an illumniator (Strobe cream or lustre drops) with your daily moisturizer – brilliant glow and minimal summer coverage using a lot less product!

My best beauty tip is to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. Nothing else will make your skin look better!

if you only have a couple of minuets to leave the house, the best thing to do is put mascara on. It really helps bring my small eyes out.

Heyyy hun, I just have one beauty tip I think I don’t think I could remove from my daily routine. And that is…. PRIME!!! Noone wants their makeup to fade, cake or crease. It really prepares your skin for everything by making it smooth and velvety, it keeps your makeup fresh throughout the day, it helps further protect skin from harsh environmental factors, it makes everything easier to blend, and helps keep you matte. If you have the right face primer, you can sometimes even just skip foundation altogether and just wrap things up with a sheer translucent powder… Goshhhh I just loooove primer!!!! I would seriously look like a greasy, washed out mess at the end of the day if I didn’t slather on a tiny bit of prep n prime face primer on before i put my studio fix on… And my eyeshadow and eyeliner would crease so bad I’d look like a panda if I didn’t use a little UDPP before packing, blending and smudging. Yeah, PRIME!!!!!! Hahahaha<33333

Best beauty tip is to use a spritz of Fix + on a brush and brush all over face after using mineral (powder) makeup….takes that “chalky” look away and gives a dewy finish. RSS follower and Twitter: sbrn78

Beauty tip – Drink plenty of water! Your lips and skin take best to makeup when you’re properly hydrated. Hydration keeps your skin and lips from peeling and flaking.

my best beauty tip is that you can be beautiful without breaking your wallet! bargain hunting and going for the drugstore brands can prove useful and you can always find dupes of high end products!

love your blog by the way 🙂

Desirae Avatar

Don’t over do it. If you’re going for vibrant eyes, tone down your mouth so you can draw attention to where you spent so much time. Not to mention, the double hit of bright color will just be too much to take in for the normal eye. A nice nude or light pink with bright eyes is the best way to go.

Jennifer Avatar

My best beauty tip is definitly to drink water as much as possible. I always have a water bottle with me, no matter what. it makes my skin clar and my whole body just look and feel healthier.

My best beauty tip is to use coconut oil as a deep conditioner for hair. Apply the oil all over, wear a shower cap or hair cover, leave in for 30 min to 1 hour, then wash. You will have to shampoo twice, then use conditioner, but this treatment really does make your hair silky soft, shiny, and smooth.

Gaby Avatar

My best beauty tip … hmm.

I think it would have to be investing in NYX Jumbo Pencils. They have the best colors, great pigmentation & go on so, so smooth. And are crazy cheap! My first purchase was a pencil in Milk and it was such a great eye brightner! I use it daily. 🙂 I haven’t gotten eyeshadows yet, but their lip glosses are great, too! NYX all the way!

Take care of your skin… I believe that spending on skin products is more important than makeup. ‘Cause if you have beautiful skin, the less makeup you have to wear and your skin will age slower.

crlsweetie912 Avatar

Put moisturizer on your hands at night and put on gloves or any cotton socks over your hands before you go to bed! This will make your hands baby soft and smooth and keep your cuticles from being rough and ragged!

Eunice Avatar

my best beauty tip is perhaps…to wear sunscreen even if you’re not going to the beach. i can really see the difference and boy am i glad 🙂

Tasha Avatar

I recommend paying close attention to base make up. A good foundation and a little highlighting on the cheekbones, nose bridge and eyes can really make a huge difference. 🙂

tina Avatar

my best beauty tip is to do your eye makeup before anything else, foundation and concealer included. This makes it easier to “erase” any mistakes you make, and clean up your eye area without messing up your face makeup!

My runner up beauty tip is to use eye primer under your eye as well, for it helps keep your under eye concealer from creasing 🙂

(i put my twitter as my website)

get a goodnight sleep! 🙂 i notice my FOTD’s look a lot better when i’ve had a proper sleep. not only the 8hour req but reallly sleeping early. 🙂

PRIME!! Use eyeshadow, eyelashes, and lip primers. It always makes the colors pop, makes the look long-lasting, and decreases creases and fading.

the best beauty tip i can give is sleep atleast 6-8 hours a day and drink 2-3 litres of water… i never believed in the 2nd statement until i tried it…and my face was soooooo bad…since i drink that much of water..my face looks so much better..even my friends recognized it… so drink water ladies =)

Confidence is the number one thing a girl needs no matter what. Your makeup
can be flawless and perfect but if you don’t feel beautiful, nothing will work. After being confident I’d say the top two things are well groomed brows and mascara. They just frame and brighten up your face.

Wear SPF 30 everyday, invest in a REALLY good foundation and foundation brush, drink lots of water, keep your brows groomed (but not overdone!), put together a 5-minute face (mine is smudged eyeliner on the top and bottom lashlines/waterline, mascara, lightly pencil the brows for shape, and a little bit of peachy blush) just in case you don’t have time to deck yourself out in a rainbow 😉

Karli Avatar

Don’t neglect your eyebrows.
Ungroomed brows aren’t attractive on everyone. And the proper shape will pull your entire look together.

Also. Do your eyeshadow before your foundation. You will never have a problem with fallout again.

Debbie Avatar

drink lots of water…
moisturize, moisturize, moisturize…
and wear sunscreen…if you find you have a bad habit of skipping this, the key is to find a formula that works for you! i used to skip this step because the sunscreens my mother gave me were thick, greasy and disgusting feeling on my skin, so i thought all sunscreens were this way and never bothered with it…until my skin started to show signs of sun damage :o( luckily, I have found something that works for me now and my skin is much happier!

one last tip: wear vaseline (or any other emollient lip balm) at night before going to bed, and gently rub your lips (with a tissue or just your fingers) in the morning to remove the dead skin for plump and smooth lips every morning!

One of my best beauty tips is to whiten your teeth! It makes a huge difference. You can purchase white strips at any drug store and you only need to do it once a week for a pretty white smile!

Shannon Avatar

Before applying eyeshadow, put some pressed powder under your eyes with your finger. Once eyeshadow is finished, take a powder brush and brush it away. This prevents fall out from sticking under your eyes.

My best beauty tip is to use tinted moisturizer w/SPF in the summer, as opposed to regular foundation. It is very light and I feel as though I am killing 2 birds with one stone.

my beauty trick is simply to get my face realise mmoisturized and always try to match the eye look with my clothes.
And of course, always use a shadow base.
Then I tend to always top lipstick with lipgloss to give my lips a nice sexy glow.

Valerie C. Avatar

I have a few tricks…one is to place brightener (like YSL Touche Eclat) in strategic areas like above the bow of your top lip, inner and outer corners of eyes, just above each brow and above cheekbones. It’s amazing how you can subtly reshape your face!

Use a mask of fresh-from-the-pot, still wet, used espresso grounds. Espresso is infinitely preferable to ordinary coffee grounds that are too coarse, as least for the face.
Smear on face, avoiding getting too close to eyes and lips, as it can get a bit itchy. Leave to dry for app. 10 min, and then wash of with plenty of water, while massaging gently. The acid in the coffee leaves the skin super soft and bright.
Also, mixed with olive oil it is a brilliant all-over exfoliant.

My best beauty tip is to use a moisturizer with at least an SPF of 15 in it. That way, you are always covered from harmful rays and your skin won’t dry out or get wrinkles from overexposed skin! Great for people who, like me, live in really hot & dry areas like Arizona.

Take good care of your teeth, visit the dentist at least every six months and consider whitening if you have stains. Clean white teeth make lips look outstanding when lipstick or glosses are applied.

Here is my entry!

My beauty tip is to use only non-chemical sunscreens, as chemical ones have the potential to actually cause damage to your skin (reverse of what you use it for, right?) If you do use a chemical sunscreen, use an antioxidant packed serum or lotion in your skincare routine to help keep your skin cells from getting damaged by the chemical sunscreen.

Another one for fun: Try zinc supplements. Zinc is great cause it does three things for you: 1. Helps keep your skin clear of acne, 2. Boosts your sex drive and 3. Helps your immune system stay strong.

kathemc Avatar

My best tip is know your skin and know your face. Not everything works on everyone. It takes trial and error, but you’ll look and feel better in the long run. For example, I have had problems with oily skin for years, and had a hard time finding a foundation that was equal to the task — who would have guessed the solution for me was a tinted moisturizer?!? Improved my skin, stays put, all’s well that ends well.

Sometimes clear lipgloss is the best lipgloss. It gives lips that wet, kissable look while not taking attention from your eyes, which of course you really want people to look at.

Sandy Avatar

If you’re like me and need to wax those hairy forearms from time to time, try this tip: Use the same shave-minimizing moisturizer that you use on your legs on your arms! It definitely lengthens the time between waxings. And if you use one with a slight tint of self-tanner, all the better.

swimmergirl Avatar

best beauty tip would be to but primer under your eyeliner if you have wrinkles, then you wouldn’t get eyeliner creasing into your wrinkles

Jen Avatar

After applying your eyeshadow, use a QTip with a small amount of MAC Fast Response Eye Creme under each eye before applying your concealer. The creme will catch and clean up any fall out from your shadows and the caffeine in the eye creme perks up tired skin. (I am sure any other eye product will help with cleaning up the fall out!)

Nicole15 Avatar

Let your skin breathe whenever possible. If you can get away without makeup 1-2 days a week or more, do it. And I mean face makeup more so. Your pores deserve to breathe & not always be closed up & covered with makeup. You will notice differences in your skin with just this simple tip.

always care well for your skin – it is the canvas for your makeup and it will stay with you for your entire life. sunscreen, moisturizer, proper cleaning… And always treat your neck the same way you do your face – having a nice smooth face when you get older doesn’t help if your neck is wrinkely and tired.

Etta Avatar

EXFOLIATE your skin regularly (how often you do this varies considereing your skin type obviously) and MOISTURIZZEE!! Gently removing that tiny layer of dead skin with all the remnants of your cosmetics and other substances will reveal the soft, glowing skin you’ve got underneath. Then moisturizing with your fave lotions and creams loaded with spf will leave you with beautiful, pure skin–totally ready for some make-upp and glory.

My best beauty tip is to put on lip balm right after you tone. By the time you apply foundation & the works, your lips would be nicely moisturised without being too slick for your lippie to “take hold”. If they are still too slick, just quickly smear the excess off with a finger, give your lips a nice smackeroo & they’re ready for lippie & gloss.

Suzanne Avatar

My best beautytip is Vaseline! You can use it for EVERYTHING. I use it mostly when i’m painting my nails, just apply it with a qtip onto your cuticles and when any nail polish gets on there, you can just wipe it away once your polish is dry. No need to clean it with polish remover, it’s that easy!

Never leave the house with out sun screen on even on cloudy days. My best beauty tip for girls with little lashes is:
Use Elizabeth arden primer But don’t let it dry. Really put it on and then I follow up with Clinic primer. Clinic primer holds you mascara on, trust me it isn’t going anywhere! Then I follow up with my two fav mascaras. But those two primer and length, conditioning and staying power. ( Sephora Stretch Mascara is AMAZING for length)

When you’ve just completed a great eyeshadow look and you go to apply you mascara…..;
and then you sneeze! Leaving a huge glob in the middle of you perfect look. Don’t fret, and whipedown your whole eye, just wait until the mascara dries and flick away! Touch up is easy and you don’t have a black smear across your lid or under your eye.. Yeah!

Clean dirty makeup brushes with baby shampoo and dry them laying with their base upwards on a slightly propped up towel so to ensure the bristles clean properly. If you clean your brushes then put them back in the pot you keep them in the water will run through the adhesive and regardless whether your brush was a drugstore or MAC the bristles will shed like there is no tomorrow!

we all feel beautiful in high heels, right? but we all have pairs that just HURT and give our feet blisters.

the best beauty advice i can give is to put vaseline on your feet! sound odd? put a tiny bit of vaseline on areas prone to getting sores or blisters (around the ankle, toes, etc.) this will keep the shoe from rubbing your feet raw! now you can feel confident and sexy without the pain!

because feet deserve to be beautiful too, right? 🙂

I also, after the moisturizer, like to wear the concealer, before applying the foundation. it helps to even any marks you have. the after that I apply the foundation and THEN all over again i check if there’s any mark and spot uncovered. it there is I dab very softly some concealer again and it lasts all day long. it’s amazing.

When I apply my UDPP on my eyelids I like to get some on my lashes also. It really helps the mascara stick better I find.

So far my favorite beauty tip is to use a moisturizer or eye cream on a cotton ball to erase any fall out you get when doing your eyeshadow. It works great, because it wipes away all the shadow, but leaves my foundation intact. 😀
