NOTHING IS WRONG BUT IT'S SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER WHEN...



BEFORE


 "I LIKE MY GYUL NATURAL!" We tend to hear that from a lot of guys here, but have you ever taken time to take a good look at the guys that make these statements? Most of them could do with some makeup deh damn self. lol



My model here is beautiful naturally, no doubt about that. But, with a little makeup she can enhance and amplify her beauty. :-)


LET'S ACKNOWLEDGE OUR FLAWS 


IF THE ANSWER IS YES TO AT LEAST TWO OF THE FLAWS LISTED BELOW, I WOULD SUGGEST YOU GET TO A MAKEUP COUNTER. GET SOME MAKEUP AND STOP FOOLING YOURSELF WITH THE "I'M A NATURAL WOMAN" LINE.

1) SPARSE EYEBROWS
2) UNEVEN SKIN TONE
3) DARK UNDER EYE CIRCLES
4) OVERLY DARK/ UNEVEN LIP COLOR
5) OILY SKIN
6) OVERLY DRIED SKIN
7) CROOKED OR BROAD NOSE BRIDGE
8) BLEMISHES
9) SPARSE EYELASHES
10) LOW SELF ESTEEM


THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE FLAWS MOST OF US AS WOMEN HAVE, WHY IGNORE IT? I VIEW MAKEUP LIKE THE GYM, IT'S THERE TO ENHANCE WHAT IS ALREADY THERE OR ADD WHAT IS NOT. IT ALSO MAKES US LOOK AND FEEL BETTER OF OURSELVES. SOME CHOOSE TO GO TO THE GYM AND LOOK BETTER IN CLOTHES, SOME CHOOSE TO NOT GO AND WIND LOOKING LIKE THE LOCAL TYRE SHOP HAD A MASSIVE SALE AND THEY THE WERE FIRST IN LINE...SOME ARE JUST BLESSED TO NOT HAVE FLAWS AT ALL. 



I'M NOT TRYING TO FORCE ANYONE TO WEAR MAKEUP HERE, BUT WHAT I'M SAYING IS, IT'S 2012-2013, THE CAVE MAN DAYS ARE OVER AND OUR CAVE MAN THINKING "MAKEUP MAKES YOU LESS OF A REAL WOMAN" SHOULD BE OVER AS WELL. IT MAKES NO SENSE YOU SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON A REALLY CUTE OUTFIT TO GO OUT AND YOUR FACE LOOKS AS IF YOU JUST WOKE UP.

 LOOK WHAT IT DOES :)!



WITH THE HELP OF A GOOD CONCEALER, YOU CAN COVER THOSE DARK CIRCLES AROUND THE EYES. THIS HELPS IN GIVING THE FACE A MORE "ALIVE/AWAKE" LOOK. FOUNDATION AND POWDER HELPS TO EVEN OUT YOUR SKIN TONE GIVING A PROFESSIONAL LOOK. 

IF YOU LOOK AT THE FIRST PICTURE ABOVE, YOU WILL NOTICE THE MODEL DOES NOT HAVE MUCH OF A PRONOUNCED NOSE BRIDGE. THIS IS WHERE CONTOURING COMES IN. SHE ALSO HAS DARK LIPS, BUT THAT'S NOTHING THAT A GOOD LIP COLOR, LIP LINER OR LIPSTICK CAN'T FIX. 


EYEBROWS TO ME ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE ON THE FACE. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE WELL KEPT AND PROPERLY SHAPED TO SUIT THE STRUCTURE OF YOUR FACE (THAT IS A WHOLE ENTIRE  TOPIC OF ITS OWN). 

THIS IS A BOLD LOOK THAT SHE IS MODELING. (MOSTLY FOR EVENTS AT NIGHT)

 IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF HOW TO APPLY YOUR OWN MAKEUP, YOU CAN ALWAYS LOOK UP SOME TUTORIALS ON YOU TUBE BABY! YOU CAN ALSO ATTEND A MAKEUP CLASS BECAUSE IF IT'S NOT DONE CORRECTLY, YOU WILL DEFINITELY BE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE CROWD.

WHEN YOUR DOING IT, DO IT RIGHT!










STILL THINK YOU DON'T WANNA WEAR IT? WELL THAT IS YOUUUUUUUUU!!!

OMG! I LOVE YOUR NAILS!

VANITY NAIL ART

I remember the days when nails use to be one base coat, two coats of color and one top coat. So not the case anymore. Lol. It has evolved into nail art and there are no limitations to what you can do. I thought I could do nails but HUNNIE CHILE  these nails put mine to shame. lol

PASTELS

Nice and simple or extra umph. They don't have to match your outfit but it needs to compliment your skin tone. Do a test on one finger first if your not sure about the color.











 MATTE 

Matte nail polish has no shine. It's often paired with a shinny splice of regular polish or a diff color to bring it out. It is the latest trend in nail polish.







GALAXY PATTERN

As the heading says, it's basically a combination of different colors to look like one big galaxy on your finger tip. This pattern is also found on leggings and body con dresses.




OMBRE

Just like your hair, nails are now being designed to have a faded multi-color look.





STILETTO NAILS

The first person I saw this style on was Rihanna. Not saying she started it but that's where I saw it first. I think this is the most liked nail trend of 2012. (I never did them before. Don't think I will but hey, never say never right. lol)









GLITTER

Bring out your inner princess with big chunks of glitter or fine dusty ones.Which ever you choose your not alone. Every girl needs a little bling bling and fairy dust sometimes to feel special. LOL






 

 NEON 

I think I touched on this before but I love neon colors they're so bright and cheerful.












CRACKED NAIL POLISH 

This nail polish dries quickly and splits apart to form a pattern of cracks before your very eyes. Cool much? lol




NAIL BEADS OR NAIL CAVIAR 

 I have tried these before but they only lasted a couple of days. (I guess I work too hard) But they look very appealing.    







NAIL FOIL 

It's a metallic film that is placed over your nails a rubbed off leaving a perfect shine.




LACE NAILS 

You can use stickers for this or an actual piece of lace. Or, If your talented (like most of you are lol) you can draw the pattern on your self.


GLOW IN THE DARK 

Self explanatory.  Might be great for clubbing ;-] Lol.



CREATIVITY!!














Now that you have all the techniques used to do nails, go out there and create magic! Ciao Bella!
