MIX PRIMER WITH FOUNDATION

This one is all about saving you a step in your makeup application! Mixing primer with foundation is a great way to not only make your makeup last longer, but it's the ideal way to save you some time in the morning! This is also almost like a homemade BB cream with a little bit more coverage.

OPPOSITE COLORS 

Did you know that when you use green-tinted concealer, it will cancel out red? What about when you use yellow-tinted concealer, it will fade out blue and purple that could make up any under eye dark circles? Just take a look at your color wheel, whatever is on the opposite side will cancel out the other color. This will help tons when applying your makeup

USE EYE SHADOW ON YOUR LASH-LINE

Do you want your eyeliner to be really light, soft and subtle but don't want to draw the line or can't do it light? Use eye shadow with a very thin brush along your lash-line  This will make your eyeliner appear really soft, subtle and smudged. 

FLAT SIDE OF BRUSH FOR BLUSH

Using the flat side of the blush brush can actually really help you control where you put the blush and it'll allow you to know exactly how much you put on.

LIGHTER COLORS OPEN EYES

If you are constantly looking for a way to keep your eyes open and to make them appear more awake, just add in lighter colors along your lash-line and in the inner and outer corners of your eyes! 

ONLY APPLY BLUSH TO APPLES OF CHEEKS

Did you know that applying blush to just the apples of your cheeks is the best way to go about applying blush? It all depends on your face shape what type of angle you should be using when you are applying blush.

TRANSLUCENT POWDER BEFORE BLUSH

Finally, do you have a problem with your blush staying on and perfect all day? Try putting on translucent powder before you put on your blush to hold it there!
