FACE FIXES
PUFFY EYES
- Hemorrhoid cream can help reduce puffiness under your eyes
- A pinch of Hemorrhoid cream that is normally used to shrink swelling on other parts of your
body can do the same on your face - The key is to leave it on for 20 minutes
- Then wipe off & clean the area to avoid a greasy sheen

MASCARA SMUDGE OR BLUSH DISASTER
- Skip makeup remover or baby oil the next time you have a makeup mishap
- Even trying to rub off a makeup mistake will likely make the smudge or streak more
eye-catching - Instead, cover it up by using your blending brush & a little foundation
- This makeup fix won’t take off what you’ve already applied
♦♦♦♦♦
REDNESS ON YOUR FACE
- Eye drops work best for removing the red out of sleepy eyes
- You can also dab a few drops on your face
- The active ingredient, tetrahydrozoline, tightens up blood vessels so it can also help calm irritated red skin

DRYING UP A PIMPLE
- Don't try to fix with toothpaste
- Treat your pimple with acne products that have benzoyl peroxide & hydrocortisone
- Then camouflage your blemish by dabbing on concealer that you set in place with powder
on top
♦♦♦♦♦
THIN LIPS
- All you need is lip liner a shade lighter than your lipstick
- Draw a line just outside the border of your top lip & fill it in with liner to give the illusion
of fuller lips - Then, top with your lipstick
- Open your mouth & make sure your lip liner is carefully connected at the corners of
your mouth
♦♦♦♦♦
SLEEPY EYES
- Tweezing a higher arch into your brows is one way to wake up sleepy looking eyes
1. Just don’t tweeze too high or you’ll look permanently surprised
2. For a less permanent solution, applying even a few fake lashes can work also - Using white eyeliner is another quick trick for an eye-opening effect
1. Put it on along the waterline of the eye, just inside the lower lashes
2. A white kohl liner from Kohl works the best because the soft pencil glides on more easily
than others

RID YOUR SKIN OF OIL SHEEN
- Pressed powder is an easy way to control all-over face shine & still have a finished look
- Sopping up some shine with blotting paper is another option that can be helpful if you
already have on powder & you don’t want your makeup to look cakey - To cut the need for blot-sessions later in the day, start off by using an anti-shine powder
under your makeup during your morning beauty routine - Stay away from rubbing alcohol because dabbing it on to control shine can dry out &
irritate your face
♦♦♦♦♦
FLAKY SKIN
- Exfoliating every day could really irritate your face especially, if it already feels irritated
& chapped - Exfoliating once a week should be enough
- Your best bet to fix flaky skin is moisturizer
- Start your beauty routine by washing your face with warm water, not hot water
- Use a mild soap or a creamy wash to wash away some flakes
- Then put on a moisturizer while your skin is damp to seal the moisture into your skin
- Use more moisturizer throughout the day, as needed
♦♦♦♦♦
DARK CIRCLES
- Common beauty advice is to use concealer one shade lighter than your skin tone to
brighten your eye area - Some beauty experts suggest going a little darker
- First, apply an orange, yellow or even a green shade of a creamy color-correcting makeup
- Then layer on concealer that is half a shade darker than your natural skin tone
- The darker shade will cover the tinted concealer & actually neutralize the discoloration
- Experiment and see which works better for you
♦♦♦♦♦
CROWS FEET
- With any wrinkle on your face, caking on coverage with heavy foundation only enhances
the creases - Using bold eye makeup may draw attention to what you’re trying to cover up but a light
powder will be just right & diminishes the look of the lines around your eyes - This is your key to creating a natural look
♦♦♦♦♦
COLOR CHOICES FOR LIFELESS SKIN
- If your skin looks yellow & washed out, use a pink or blue-hued blush for a healthier
looking tone - Avoid applying peach or orange because your skin will pick up the yellow undertones of
these colors
♦♦♦♦♦
PALE SKIN
- For a sun-kissed look without the health risks & skin damage from using a tanning bed,
lightly brush bronzer powder on your face - Some like to mix a little bink blush with the bronzer to bright the glow
- Even though a self-tanner can give you a safe glow, it's not a fast fix when you're in a hurry
HOW TO USE A BRONZER
- Pick the right shade of bronzer for you
- If you're going to wear makeup under your bronzer, you want to switch to a slightly
darker base color - One shade warmer than your skin tone - With a brush create the number 3 on both sides of your face
1. Start at the top of your forehead
2. Dust it along your cheeks
3. Sweep it across your jawline all the way to your chin
4. Remember to blend it into your neck
5. If you're putting your hair up, you have to bronze the back of your neck also
