Eyeliner

Dark, thick eyeliner will makeyou look overdone and will ruin the rest of your makeup.

 Mascara

Too much mascara looks fake andwill flake. It looks especially bad if worn with thick eyeliner or dark blueeye eye shadow.

Foundation

Make sure your foundation is thesame color as your skin. Foundation is meant to protect and give the face asmooth look. The magic word is blend.

Powder

The same holds true for powder -not too much. Also, be sure to blend your makeup so there are no obvious lines.

Lips

Apply lip liner to completelycover the lips, add color and your lipstick will stay on much longer. Make sureyour lip liner doesn't show. Also, your lip color should match your skin tone;wear cool colors if you have cool coloring and warm colors if you have warmcoloring. If you want to make your lips look smaller, keep your liner on theinside of your lips. However, if you decide to make your lips look larger,going outside the natural outline of you lips is a mistake. This can look quitemessy and unnatural.

Appropriatemakeup

Wear makeup that is appropriatefor the occasion. If you are going to the beach you shouldn't wear the same oras much makeup as you would if you were going dancing. Also, when you are in daylightyour makeup should be a lighter than when you are out for the evening.

When your makeup is completed itshould look natural. That means avoiding colours that clash. If you have darkskin and hair you will look better in darker shades; light colours will makeyou look washed out. If your hair and skin tone are light, light colours willlook better on you. Dark makeup will make you look older and harsh. If you haveoily skin, first use oil control moisturizer and foundation. Then be sure towear loose powder, keeping pressed powder with you for touch ups.

Hair color

As youage your skin will lighten, so should your hair color. One last thing abouthair color - if you do color you hair be sure you keep it up, don't let yourroots show.
