1. Want a shimmering face look for night? Take an
old liquid foundation, and add a few shaves of a
shimmery light cream or powder eye shadow or a
drop of shimmer body lotion. Apply and get the latest
glowy skin.
2. A warm brick eyeshadow is the perfect all over
summer color'..for lips, cheeks, eyes... .dust lightly
and apply a little lip gloss on top of lips and you're
done.
3. It was just yesterday when we were having a
hard time keeping matte faces and lips on. Now,
believe it or not, some of us have a hard time
keeping cream products on. Trick of the trade: Like
attracts like. Matte sticks to anything matte, cream sticks to anything moist.
4. On a photo shoot, I had to create a glistening
skin look quickly, and upon finding out that most
glistening sprays have Olive Oil as one of it's main
ingredients, I immediately created my own. Get a
nice glass spray bottle, easily found at Target or your
local drug store, and combine Virgin Olive Oil (no
smell..and the lightest in texture) with a few drops of
jasmine, rose or lavender oils and shake it up. Now you have your own glow in a
bottle!
5. A quick dusting of shimmering body powder or an
iridescent eye shadow over the high points of the face, (cheekbones, chin, top
of nose, eyelids, across forehead..) creates a quick day to night look.
6. Want to warm up pale skin or create a special
body effect? Mix a warm yellow, lilac, bronze or
shimmering loose powder into your body lotion. Apply on
legs and arms and as it dries, you'll create a soft
tinted effect that won't come off. You can also try this
with your facial moisturizer to create a special tinted
foundation.
7. Lately all the top fashion shows and shoots I've
done have had one thing in common. Glowy skin. No,
I don't mean shiny, or dewy, or matte, or wet. But
glowy. How to get this? Get your favorite shimmering
shimmering cream/pink/pearl eye shadow and apply
to the high points of the face. Tops of cheekbones,
eyes, chin.
8. Want that super shiny dewy look? Just apply
some lip gloss on the tops of your cheeks and you're
ready to go. My favorite is the clear opalescent
ones...looks real pretty at nighttime.
9. Want to tone down ruddiness or pink skin? On
clean
skin apply a light dusting of a yellow based powder. The yellow will calm down
enough so that you'll need way less foundation and concealer and also adds a
bit of warmth to the skin.more...
