Simple Solutions to Recover From Cosmetic Makeup Disasters!

Simple Solutions to Recover From Cosmetic Makeup Disasters!

Have you ever bought makeup that looks great at the store only to get it home and find it makes us look more ghoulish than gorgeous? Of course you have, but is the only alternative to toss it? No! And here is how you can easily recover...

To soften a blinding shade of blusher, start by applying a more neutral-colored blush such as tawny brown, which creates a natural-looking flush on most skin tones. Then add a pop of the bright color on top. To make it brighter, first sweep the blah blush over the apples of your cheeks; then tap the tops of your cheekbones with your most vibrant shade of pink blush.

Foundation can easily be made darker, just apply the foundation as you usually would and then dust a little powder bronzer onto your cheeks, forehead and chin using a large blush brush — the coppery tones will help add warmth and depth. Another option: Create a richer color by mixing a small amount of foundation with a drop of gel bronzer in your palm. To make it lighter, dilute the color by mixing it in your hand with a squirt of untinted facial moisturizer.

After filling in lips with a too-loud shade of lipstick, just top it with a neutral beige lipstick. Continue layering on the beige until you reach your desired tone. Create a more intense, matte version of a lackluster lipstick by first lining and filling in your kisser with a lip liner that’s at least two shades deeper than the lipstick. Then apply the lipstick and a deeper shade of gloss for sheen and much fuller and poutier lips.

To soften the color of eyeshadow, start by sweeping lids with a taupe-tone shadow or a pale yellow powder. Then apply a light coat of the blaring color. If it’s still too intense, add another layer of the lighter shade. Or if the shadow is bright green, blue or violet, you can use it as an eyeliner to softly define just your upper lids. Then to darken the color, dampen your eye shadow brush beforehand, which will intensify the hue.

Following these simple tips will mean no more makeup buying disasters and a much happier and more beautiful you!
