Professional hair makeup tips. We could all use some tips when it comes to makeup and looking great. Hair is also an important part and you can become a professional at it.
Eye Shadow – According to makeup artist and author of “Makeup Makeovers Expert Secrets for Stunning Transformations,” Robert Jones, women should pick eye shadows that make the natural color of their eyes stand out. Choosing a color that, on the color wheel, is the opposite of your eye color is key. Blue eyes look best with warm browns and soft peaches. Green eyes pop with deep purples, golden browns, and deep peaches. Grey eyes look great with cool browns and purples. According to Jones, girls with brown eyes have it easiest because just about any shade will complement them.
Lipstick – Jones says that women with thinner lips should wear lighter lipstick to make their lips look fuller, while women with fuller lips can wear dark or light shades of lipstick. After filling in your lips with a natural toned lip pencil, apply a dab of light concealer to the center of your top and bottom lips. This area will remain lighter after you apply your lipstick, giving your lips a full and pouty appearance. Add a light, shimmery lip gloss to the center of the lips to complete the illusion.
Hair Care – Allure recommends that you shampoo your hair every other day at the most. The natural oils from your scalp are what keep hair shiny and healthy looking. Drench your hair thoroughly before you shampoo to get your hair the cleanest, and concentrate the shampoo on your scalp to avoid drying out the ends of your hair. Rinsing in the coldest water that you can stand will close the cuticle and lead to shinier results.
Skin Care – Mzia Shiman, a professional facialist, recommends that every woman wear a hydrating face mask once a week. A face mask that contains hyaluronic acid will draw moisture to the skin. Allure magazine says that women in their 40s should consider getting facials less often, because the slowdown in oil production that comes with age means that pores don’t get blocked as often as they do in younger skin. Using a cleanser with salicylic acid may be all that’s needed to keep the skin clear.
