Makeup on the Go

There are no ugly girls. Just lazy ones. With today's over saturated market of beauty items, a girl should have no excuse to looking like a mess. Although we don't always have the time for a complete beauty therapy, a quick makeover is always a do.

When on the go, you should consider these few useful tricks:
  1. Use tinted lotion (foundation mixed with lotion) for a quick glide and smooth appearance.
  2. Swipe on some blush. Blush should always be worn since it makes the cheeks look glowy and healthy.
  3. Dust bronze Shadow over entire eye for a bronzed goddess effect, while adding shimmer light Shadow to the crease and the rims of the eyes for a big eyed look.
  4. Gloss those lips! Apply some tinted gloss or lipstick and Voila!!

The best way to get smooth, healthy looking makeup is by using good, clean makeup brushes. If you are like me, then you have too many makeup brushes to count, each one serving a different purpose. If not, it is OK. Makeup brushes don't necessarily have to be expensive. As an artist I paint a lot and while shopping around for painting brushes I found some amazing steals. Michael's wide variety of brushes made me jealous that I had bought makeup brushes for $30 a piece when they carry the same exact brushes for $3! They were even made out of the same fibers, which was great, because makeup companies usually sell cheap brushes made out of plastic bristles which leave the skin looking blotched and uneven, but Michael's brushes were made of natural smooth fibers just like the expensive ones, so go check them out!!! :)
