Makeup tips for London weather !

Sure, you remember how hard is it to keep your makeup spotless during the rainy season. The fall is pretty harsh both with face, hair and body in general. In order to be able to flash our best side it is essential to bunch up the most vital tips to maintain our makeup dazzling. Apply these tips and bring out the best of your look even during monsoon season.
Fall often promises quick and surprise showers that can ruin our look in the blink of an eye. Though there\'s no need to quit using makeup it is still wise to acquire all the helpful professional tricks and face the rainy days with confidence and style. As the seasons change it is recommended to learn the new way of applying cosmetics and using the right products our skin really requires. Besides the vital skin care rituals there are other practices that must be applied for the best results.

The keywords when it comes of monsoon makeup are water-proof and light makeup. These are two qualities that are quintessential to survive the autumn with a flawless look. If you manage to adopt the tendencies of the season you\'ll see the beneficial results pretty soon. Smudging and other makeup disasters can be easily prevented if you approach the problem from the right angle. Let\'s see the most important makeup tips for rainy season.

Makeup Base


- MAC -
Body and Face Foundation is awesome for rainy weather
 
Beginning at the base it is worth mentioning that often the main cause of smudging is the excessive foundation use. Those who find it indispensable might still use a thin coat of it however it should be preferably water resistant. Moreover choose the right shade that\'s closer to your natural skin tone.


Powder will prove to be the best tool to offer a slight shimmer and mask the beauty flaws at the same time. This will stick to your complexion rather than any kind of foundation. It will require a quick touch up during the day, however it guarantees the spotless effect.
Those who have a great complexion should totally eliminate this product of the daily makeup list, instead it is more advisable to use a concealer than to apply a sheer powder.

Eye Makeup



- GOSH - 
Waterproof eyeshadow
Rain immediately means waterproof mascara. Since a normal mascara would quickly smudge when in contact with humidity it is recommended to use a special formula that will resist the extreme weather conditions.
It is a well-known fact that these products can\'t be washed off so easily. However with the use of the proper makeup removers this problem will be also ruled out.
Makeup artists also recommend switching the dark eye shadows with the more natural and sheer colors preferably also with a waterproof quality. The colors of the season offer endless options to look great even if the weather outside is gloomy.

Blush

- Make Up For Ever -
Waterproof Blush

It is a common mistake that ladies seem to commit during each monsoon season. Namely that they use a blush with an inappropriate texture. The rainy days scream for complex compositions, that\'s why it is a golden rule that when sporting a monsoon-proof makeup we should choose a mousse or cream blush that can resist the impact of humidity.
The makeup gurus often neglect the use of blush during the fall season instead practice a smashing trick. They use a bit of lipstick you can spread with your fingernails and the effect is just as gorgeous as with the use of blush.

Lip Makeup


 - Make up For Ever -
Aqua Rouge
Waterproof Lipstick and gloss

Lip gloss is the top notch no-no beauty product of the monsoon season. It might get in contact with humidity which can result in smudging and at least said unflattering look. That\'s why you should rather rely on high quality lipstick that will fabulously top your makeup. There are several formulas and brands on the market that guarantee a long-lasting effect.
Make sure you test it beforehand in order to avoid any lip makeup accidents. You can either go for the blood red lips effect or rather for the classy and natural makeup trends. Choose the one you can pull off with great style in order to perfect your monsoon look.

Spring Clean your Beauty Regime

TAKE GOOD CARE YOUR BEAUTIFUL SKIN

 

 

Refresh

Cleansing is a vital part of any skincare routine and often the most overlooked. It is the first step to getting a radiant, healthy complexion as proper cleansing rids the skin of excess oil, dirt and make-up, re-balances the skin and prepares the skin for the absorption of other products.
Tip: Always “double cleanse” your face at night; first to remove your make-up and then again to clean the skin.

Replenish

Another important factor in maintaining a youthful, vibrant skin is moisturizer. For a revived complexion choose products that will address your main skincare concerns such as dullness, fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin texture or dryness. Add a serum to your routine for an extra moisture boost as these generally absorb faster and penetrate deeper than most creams or lotions.
Tip: Keep in mind that the extra moisturizing cream that got you through the chilly winter months may be too rich for the warmer season, so try switching to a lighter formulation for spring.
And don’t forget about that gorgeous body that you have been hiding beneath layers of clothing all winter. Elbows, knees, heels and toes can suffer after a season spent in jerseys, tights and boots.
Tip: Choose products that contain vitamin C which stimulates collagen production, protects against free-radicals and promotes an overall healthy and vibrant complexion.

Renew

Now is the perfect time to renew your complexion by removing the layers of dead skin that have built up over winter, and stripped your skin of its shine. Exfoliating regularly helps to get rid of the top layer of dead skin cells, allowing your moisturizer to penetrate deep enough to rehydrate the skin, leaving it looking brighter and softer.
Tip: If you have a very sensitive skin, opt for a gentle exfoliating mask instead of a scrub.
The best way to start repairing the skin and prepare for the beautiful weather ahead is to treat yourself to an exfoliation and moisturizing treatment such as the DMK Enzyme Therapy Treatment. This is perfect for removing damaged skin cells. It tightens, tones and firms the skin, leaving it looking fresher and younger. And while you're there don’t forget to ask for a Danne Medi-Pedi that will leave your feet smooth, soft and supple, ready for some sexy summer sandals.
Remember that protecting your skin from the sun is the final and most important step in rejuvenating your skin and preparing it for the hot summer months to come. Using a cream with a suitable SPF daily is still the best way to delay the signs of aging.

Beauty Secrets Every Teen Should Know

Or, What We Wish We Knew 20 Years Ago



"No, I'm not! I'm not a tomboy! I love my makeup! That's not true! I'm not a tomboy!"
 -- Hilary Duff, Academy Award-winning actress
There's nothing worse than getting advice from older people, we know, we know, but the truth is some advice is worth taking and keeping, especially when it comes to fun beauty tips.

Skip the foundation

If you have acne the first thing you want to do is slather on the thick foundation. Don't. Foundation is for women over 30. Not only will it cover up your natural beauty, but foundation on a teenager looks anything but natural. Instead, cover up blemishes with concealer, then follow with a powder or tinted mosturizer. Tinted moisturizers tend to be lighter than heavy foundations.

Play up your lips or your eyes, never both

If you wear smokey eyes, go for nude lips with just a bit of gloss. Prefer the drama of dark lipstick? Keep face light (stay away from heavy blush) and wear only mascara on your eyes and a light eyeshadow. Don't heavily line your eyes. Play up both and you'll look like a clown. And never, ever line lips in a darker color than your gloss or lipstick.

Less is more

Ever notice how some of your friends look best with no makeup at all? No matter your age, too much makeup makes you look worse. If you wear foundation, powder, blush, liner, mascara, eyeshadow, lip liner and gloss on an everyday basis, then you're overdoing it. Tone it down: All you really need is a great mascara, concealer for blemishes and gloss. Add a pop of blush in winter.

Natural hair is always hot

If you have super dark hair, lighten your look by going a shade darker or getting lighter highlights. Blonde? Try highlights, especially framing the face. We see too many teens lightening their hair several shades and the look can be super-tacky, not super-fabulous. The trick is to let people assume you were born with sun-kissed hair, not that you gave yourself a bad dye job from a bottle. More hair color tips here.

Vaseline is your best friend

Vaseline is a great, cheap eye makeup remover. It's also great for fixing chapped, scaly lips. Slather on a bunch of Vaseline, then use a toothbrush to massage lips. Wipe the excess off on a tissue. Your lips will be smooth and soft.

7. You can never go wrong with layers Long layers are great for any hair type: Super curly, straight or wavy. It makes thin hair appear thicker, curly hair appear manageable and wavy hair appear just-got-back-from-the-beach sexy. Just make sure you don't get too many layers cut in. Too many short layers is dated.

Acne? Get thee to a dermatologist, stat

Biggest mistake people with acne make? Not going to a dermatologist. Forget those $150 jeans you covet. Getting rid of those pimples will be the best investment you'll ever make. And the only guaranteed way to do it is with a dermatologist.

Spend money on key beauty products

Not sure what to splurge on and what to save on? I give you the scoop in this article. See if you should splurge or save on cleansers, mascara, concealer and more.

Buying foundation or lipstick? Test it first

There are some beauty products you simply must try out at a department store or Sephora before you buy. These include: Foundation, lipstick, blush and powder. Buy these products in a grocery store and you'll be lucky if you picked the right color for your skin tone. What you can get away with without testing: Mascara, eye liner, most basic eye shadows and lip gloss.

When can you skip sunscreen ? Never

Here's a trick we wish we knew: The first beauty product you should apply every day is sunscreen, even if it's cloudy or rainy outside. Why? Good habits start young and if you use sunscreen now, you'll have gorgeous skin when you're 50, 60, 70. Remember, the sun's UV rays can penetrate clouds and car windows.

Wrapping hair around the barrel creates waves

There's nothing cooler than long, layered waves. To get them, wind hair AROUND the barrel of a large curling iron. Reverse direction for each 2-inch section (wind up for one, down for another).

Self-tanner will always stink

Unfortunately, even the best ones smell. Your best bet is to apply self-tanner a good 24 hours before an important event and take a shower (don't loofah) to wash off any smell. For really big events like a dance or wedding, consider a professional spray tan. These are pricey and don't last long, so make sure to do it a day before the big event.

Don't let nails go

Not into manicures and pedicures? No worries. Just make sure to keep nails clean and the same length. If you do want to paint them, don't keep the polish on until half of it's chipped away. Also, there's nothing worse than too-long toenails. Keep nails clipped between pedicures! People tend to judge others by the care they put into their hands and feet.

Don't line the inside of your eyes

It will make your eyes appear smaller. Instead, line just at the lash line. Also, an obvious line doesn't look natural. Smudge the line just a bit. >

16. Oily hair? Try baby powder at your roots

If you have blonde hair, sprinkling a bit of baby powder on your roots and at your crown will soak up excess oils. If you have brown hair, you might be better off with a dry shampoo for your hair color.

Shave legs at the end of the shower

Cut down on nicks and cuts by making shaving the very last step in your shower or bathing ritual. 9 more shaving tips here .

Know your best feature and play it up

What feature do people comment on most? Play it up. If you're told you have Angelina Jolie lips, make sure to wear gloss and play with bold lipstick colors. If it's your eye color people love, find eyeshadow colors that complement them and make sure to wear mascara. Also, know what color shirts look best on you and go shopping.

Scrubs are great for dry skin

If you have dry, itchy skin in winter, invest in a scrub and handmitts and scrub away in the bathtub. Make sure to slather on a thick moisturizer afterward. For dry, callous-y feet, buy a pumice stone. They work better than any of the other wimpy options on the market.

Remember: Beauty is mostly internal

Think about a girl you know who's overweight yet all the guys love her. Why? Because she's confident. If you aren't wearing makeup and your toes haven't been repainted in weeks, if you're happy and smiling you will still be 10 times prettier than the mopey cheerleader sitting next to you in class. Trust us (wink).
