These are some pretty well known hacks/ tips but whatever:
- baby oil is amazing for removing eye makeup, especially if you're low on makeup remover! I sometimes even use it to correct my eyeliner when I have time! but remember to wash it off after using it to take off makeup.
- if using pencils for eyeliners, try to heat up your pencil a bit for a much smoother application! I like to blow on my pencil with hot hair or warm it in my hands -- always makes it go on smoother and leads to less mistakes!
- when filling in brows, use very light, quick strokes. Don't use a heavy hand or else it will look overdrawn and bad. What I like to do when in a hurry, is just apply some brow pencil (or even eyeliner pencil if you're in a real hurry) on a q-tip and then lightly use the q-tip to darken the lighter spots in my eyebrows!
- when using liquid eyeliner, start in from the middle and then go back and begin from your tear ducts. lessens mistakes.
- always do the bottom lashes mascara first and then upper lashes.
- to make yourself appear a little more awake, you can apply a tiny dab of white eyeshadow around your tear ducts. A really tiny amount that looks natural enough LOL.
- for concealer or under the eye, make sure its a triangle and then blend. It's more natural looking.
- use the tissue paper trick when wearing lipstick!
- never use raw lemon/ baking soda on your face! they're horrible for your skin!
- sunscreen is your best friend. never leave it behind, not even on cloudy days!
