Hello, ladies!

Get ready for a bunch of tips and observations on things that you must avoid in make-up: not to make yourself look older and not to scare people around you with a fake-looking and grotesque make-up. I’ll try to approach it the fun way 🙂 Many girls don’t even know they do something wrong. Some mistakes are unacceptable. The following list will be useful for all women, not only for make-up beginners. Read on and… never do it again! 🙂

Most common make-up mistakes

1. Too dark foundation. Girls, remember: it always ends up in failure, looks terrible and unnatural. You must have seen those women in the street with face and neck having completely different shade. It looks like head and body come from a totally different set 🙂 One starts wondering: is this a woman or what? If you want your face to look suntanned, you’d better learn to use a bronzing powder.
2. Concealer? What do I need a concealer for?!
   For example, to mask under-eye shadows. Applying foundation and avoiding the eye area is a bad idea: you can see dark circles and fatigue right away. If you’re going for smokey eye make-up, the skin around your eyes must be flawless. A good concealer does not only mask the shadows but also takes care of the skin.
3. Blush. Hello, dwarf!
   Yes, you see it right. Yo probably remember Disney fairy tales about dwarves. They have rosy cheeks that look (not in our case) endearing. Many girls don’t know how to apply a blush. They simply smear the cosmetic on the apples of the cheeks. Effect? Ridiculous.
4. Mascara that nearly beats the gravity.
   It’s most common among girls. I don’t get it why women think that 7 layers of mascara make them look beautiful, sexy and fresh.
5. Too dark eyebrows.
   It’s a very common problem. Strong eyebrow make-up and mismatched shades – your brows look like they live their own life. They spoil the whole image and make you look unnatural. When I talk to a woman with overdone brows I can’t focus. The brows are so distracting.
6. Too bright lipstick.
   I don’t exaggerate it. It’s like in case of eyebrows. A vivid, mismatched shade of a lipstick gives your face a cartoonish look. Girls, it never looks good. Never!
7. Too light lipstick.
   It turns out we can overdo the color the other way round. I know nude shades are in but using a lipstick that is lighter than your foundation makes you look like you have no lips! Your face looks a bit scary. Never go for such a cosmetic turpism.
