Flaunt your Favourite Feature

Author: Luinae

Date: 12 August





Instead of trying to cake on tons of makeup, copy the look of your best friend, or mimic what you see in a magazine, why don't you play up your favourite feature? Do you want to enhance your gorgeous green eyes, flawless charcoal skin, or sculpted cheekbones? Decide what feature is your favourite, or what people compliment you on the most, and then use this blog post to play up your favourite feature!

Remember, if you are playing up one particular feature, keep the rest of your face low key so that particular feature stands out!


Lucious Lips

Before you go to bed at night, put a coat of vaseline on your lips to prep them and make them soft and smooth for tomorrow.


Use an ultra- sheer, shimmery gloss that has a hint of colour, to add sparkle and shine and accent the natural shape of your lips.





Flawless Skin

When you cleanse your face tonight, mix some white sugar and extra virgin olive oil together and apply to your face. The sugar is a great exfoliant and the extra virgin olive oil makes your skin silky smooth and super soft.


Instead of covering up your great skin with foundation and powder, try a tinted moisturizer to let your natural skin glow through. If you can, even go without foundation…………and know that we're all very jealous.







Sculpted Cheekbones

Next time you go out for a walk on a cold day, check the colour that your cheeks turn in the cold air. This is your natural pigmentation and should be the blush colour you try to match.


Once, you've applied your blush, use a highlighter on the top of your cheekbones so they really stand out. To find your cheekbones, place 2 fingers under the outside corner of your eye. You bottom finger should be resting on your cheekbone.







Stunning Eyes

Eyes are the window to the soul, after all. Eyes are easy to play up, and can become very captivating and lovely with a few simple tips.


Apply a neutral eyeshadow from your lash line up to your crease and extend a little above the crease. This provide the background for the next step.







Apply a thin layer of black eyeliner along the upper lash line, as close to the lashes as possible. Wing slightly at the ends to create a fun look!







Awesome Hair

If you have naturally beautiful hair, stick with what you got! Don't waste your time on blow dryers and flat irons if your hair is already fantastic.


It doesn't matter weather your hair is curly, wavy, or straight. Put in an anti-frizz serum the night before and let air dry. In the morning brush and go for natural and beautiful hair!
