her makeup trick : "i find that blush fades quickly on my skin. Since its important for my cheeks to look perky, i always carry my blush so i can swipe on the right amount of color anywhere" -VANESSA HUDGENS
CLEAN A WET FACE : use cleanser on damp skin. if you apply your cleanser on dry skin it is more like to be irritating and cause redness.
CLEANSE FOR 60 SECONDS : massage face wash on your skin for about a minute to break down dirt and makeup before rinsing off. Its important to wipe away pollutants, dirt, bacteria, and product residue, which can cause dullness and clogged pores.
GET A FIRM MAKEUP BASE : splash your face with cold water before applying makeup, the coolness helps temporarily shrink pores. Its a trick movie stars used in the 30's to tighten skin and help makeup glide on seamlessly.
SET MOISTURIZER FOR 3 MINUTES : giving your lotion time to comepletely absorb before applying makeup will help your foundation, blush, and shadow last all day.
WHAT YOULL NEED:
-your favorite plumping gloss (i use lip fusions lip plumper in clear)
-freshly ground pepper (i use alessi whole black peppercorns) because it alrady comes in a little grinder
-your favorite lip liner & lip stick
what i do is i apply my foundation as usual and before i do the rest of my makeup i apply lip fusions plumper to my lips. then i grind the pepper into the palm of my hand and scrub it onto my lips as if im using the pepper as a lip scrub. i let the pepper sit on my lips as im doing the rest of my makeup, you should feel a slight burning feeling. then when im almost done with all my makeup i wipe off the pepper scrub from my lips and i line them with my lipliner. then i apply another coat of my lip fusion plumper followed by a coat of my favorite lip color. and there you go! sexy full lips (:
