7 Beauty Mistakes You'll Want to Avoid 

Beautiful faces come in all shapes, colors and
sizes. Beauty is magnified when makeup is applied
correctly. Makeup has the ability to hide skin
imperfections, brighten and make skin appear
more youthful. Makeup acts as a beauty enhancement.

However,

When makeup is used incorrectly it has the power
to dull complexions, bring out imperfections and
create a harsh look. In most instances, people won't
tell you your makeup is gaudy - it is up to you to
find out how to apply it properly and ask someone
you can trust how your makeup looks
.

To get started here are some common mistakes to look for:

1. Eyeliner:

Eyeliner is a great makeup tool but
when not used properly it can make you look awful.
Firstly, it should match your coloring. If you have
a light complexion and light hair go easy. Stay away
from dark wide eyeliner. Secondly, as you get older
eyeliner should be used sparingly. There's nothing
that will age you more that dark eyeliner. Lastly,
for best results use a thin line in the lashes
to make the lashes look fuller.

2. Lipliner:

Lip liner is meant to define the
lips - to create an even line and keep lipstick from
bleeding. For the best looking lips your lip liner
should not be visible. Lips that are outlined with
dark liner are aging and look gaudy.

3. Foundation:

Foundation is the perfect
product to create a flawless complexion. Foundation
that is visible or is a different color than your
skin is not appealing. The trick is to make sure
it matches your skin tone exactly and apply it
sparingly. For best results, exfoliate your skin
regularly and use a moisturizer before you apply
foundation.

4. Eyebrows:

Eyebrows are so important to
the overall look of the face that it's worth mentioning
twice. They should match your hair color, not be
drawn on and not be too small. The best eyebrows
begin above the inner corner of the eye and end at
the outer corner.

5. Mascara:

Clumpy mascara flakes and makes
eyes look messy. Mascara is a great lash lengthener
and used sparingly can make eyes come alive.

6. Eye shadow:

Too much frosty eye shadow makes
eyes look pale on younger women. On older women
because it attracts light, it brings attention to
wrinkles.

7. The Mirror Test:

Before leaving home check your
makeup first in a full length mirror making sure
it matches your outfit in occasion and intensity
and then in daylight for clarity.
