If you don't use foundation we recommend you acquire one which suits your skin type. You'll see how your skin becomes totally uniform, with your face ready for the color to go on!

If you already use foundation, try using corrector (if the product is light enough) over the foundation, to add light to your gaze. Smooth it out with your fingertips to remove excess product. You'll be shedding off the years!

∑ Bring out the color of your eyes;

Try out a different color eyeshadow, one that brings out the color of your eyes.

∑ Change your mascara and your gaze will change;

If you've had the same mascara for over three months, then it's time for a change. Acquire a different one, unless you are really pleased with the one you have. Try out one which lengthens your lashes, or thickens them, and remember to always double-layer it.

∑ Give color to your cheeks;

Are you putting the blusher on correctly? Follow the shape of your cheekbone to get it right, smile and apply the color with the brush, then blend it with a loose powder brush (normally thicker than rouge ones), for a natural finish.

And -why not?- unless your skin is very rosy, put on a touch of pink rouge (you can also use a pale rosewood color shadow) in the center of your cheek. This'll automatically bring a different touch to your look.

∑ Smile with gusto:

If you never wear make up on your lips: -start now! Which color will flatter you most? -The one closest to the color of your lips, in a darker or lighter tone. Put transparent lip gloss on. This is very fashionable and is perfect for daytime make up.
