This quick and easy illusion will give you an instant eye life. Draw an arch directly above your eyebrow with your favorite highlighter, and blend with your finger. This makes your arch look raised, making the whole eye area look like its been lifted.

Instead of tossing them in the trash when your mascara expires, wash and repurpose those wands. You can use them as an eyebrow brush, even applying a bit of color before sweeping across your brows. Or, spray with hairspray and use them to brush and keep your eyebrows in place.

It may seem like a waste, but if you want clumpfree lashes so hard to achieve, right?. , you have to wipe your mascara wand off on a tissue before each application. This way you can apply several coats seamlessly.

Instead of using that bulky tube of concealer to cover your blemishes, rub a bit of it on an eyeliner brush for more precise control.

Although I like liquid liner and its ability to really define the eyes, Im not really a fan of the harshness of it. And, if its not applied perfectly, imperfections really stand out. To soften the look, sweep a metallic brown shadow over the liner. This not only diminishes the hardline, but also helps hide imperfections.

Keep those lips kissable by sealing the deal. After your lipstick is applied, hold a tissue over your lips and apply powder over the tissue. This creates a matte look that lasts much longer.

So simple and stunning. Use your finger to stamp a little bit of frosted blush or eye shadow to the center of your bottom and top lip.
