Need an instant make-over? Let me share a few yet important make-up secrets with you to give you a chic and suave look. Follow them they work wonders.

Make-up secret tip No.1: Make the complexion of your face and neck look even. And to do so apply a coat of foundation that goes with your skin tone. Apply a single coat in the day-time and you can double volume for a night-outing.

Make-up secret tip No.2: Try to hide those blemishes and dark circles by applying concealer by the brush and later blend it well with your fingertips.

Make-up secret tip No.3: If you think that foundation base makes your face look dramatic and gaudy, then loose powder will be a perfect fix for you. Also, it’s lighter than the foundation and adds a fresh look.

Make-up secret tip No.4: Eyes-the most accentuated and the most exposed part of the face and speak volumes when you are silent. So, in order to make them look attractive, you can swear on neutral shades, any day. A single stroke of neutral eye shadow is enough, just sweep a stroke over your eyes and apply kohl, eye-liner and mascara. And then let your eyes do the talking!

Make-up secret tip No.5: Lips-yeah how can we forget them? Pick up a color that compliments your skin tone and dress as well. Be smart while picking up a lip –color. Also take season into consideration. Outline your lips with a lip-liner that is contrast or a shade darker than your lip-color. Do not forget to apply a lip-balm enriched with Vitamin E and then only apply lipstick or a lip-color. Gloss it up when needed.

Make-up secret tip No.6: Blush it up, ladies! Highlight your face structure and cheek-bones by making proper use of blush. Use lighter to neutral shades-daytime and to add more dramatic effects to your look, try using darker to glittery shades during nights. And be ready to cast a spell.

To maintain hygiene and condition of your brushes, keep them clean by spraying alcohol over a tissue paper and sweeping the brushes over it. For natural bristles, wash them with shampoo.
