softened. Blending your makeup is important so
that people notice your face and not a streak of
foundation at your jawline.
2. Apply blush on Your Cheeks.
Color on the cheeks looks youthful and makes skin
look extra vivacious. You’ll glow and will make
your cheekbones stand out.

Now that you’re a makeup pro, how about some
high quality products to match your rad face?
My 5 Go To Products
1. Make Up For Ever HD Translucent
Powder.
It looks white but is completely invisible on skin
because there is no pigment (color) in it. This
keeps shine down without showing up on the skin
because the powder is so finely milled. It seriously
feels like velvet.
3. Apply Concealer Under Your Eyes.
Any shadows or discoloration under your eyes
will make you look tired. Applying concealer there
draws attention to your eyes rather than the skin
underneath.
Use your ring finger to blend because it’s the
weakest and will be most gentle. The skin around
your eyes is about 25% thinner than the rest of
your face. Irritating it makes it more susceptible to
premature wrinkling. When patting your concealer, you don’t cake it on. Be sure to build it in thin
layers. Otherwise you’ll smear product around
and waste it. (And makeup isn’t cheap!)

2. Now Food 100% Jojoba Oil (any
brand works)
It’s the closest oil to the oil your face naturally
produces and works wonders on dehydrated or
dry skin. The molecule is very small so it penetrates deep into your skin. And you can use it on
your hair for hydration or to keep fly-aways in
place.
3. Eyeshadow Blending Brushes.
These are your secret weapon for killer eyeshadow
application. My favorites are the MAC 217 or Real
Techniques 200 Oval Shadow.
