Less is More MAKEUP tutorial

Looking flawless is something every girl strives for when they look in the mirror before they put their makeup on.No one looks in the mirror and says...I want to look like a clown.I want every one to know I'm wearing makeup..so I refuse to blend.lol:)
So today I'm going to share a few steps that help me achieve a clean look w/out over doing it.

Step1- Always start with a clean moisturized canvas.This is art people treat it as so. If you have dead skin and your skin has a dull look,Exfoliate the night before and moisturize.This will leave you with a glowing canvas in the morning.

Step2-Now pause & look at your skin.Look at the areas that have shadows and hyper-pigmentation.
For many this is the under eye area,nasolabial folds(the sides of the nose down to the smile lines),the under the lower lip & the corners of the mouth.

Step3-Get a foundation that matches your skin tone when the light hits it.This will provide your skin with an uplifted brightness.Put a small amount on your finger(ring finger-weakest finger-best for applying makeup so there is less tugging on the skin),or brush.Now start by covering the areas in Step2.Just dap small amounts.

Step4-Now get a fluffy brush and blend those areas going outwards.Getting the surrounding areas of the face. Apply more as needed and blend.

Step 5-Get a creamy concealer to conceal any dark spots or dark areas that are still showing through.Dab a little and blend softly.

Step 6-Set your work with a powder that is either translucent or matches your skintone.You do this by getting that same fluffy brush,dust it in the powder,tap off the excess & lightly apply it to your face with swirling motions...Remember less is more.

This should provide you with a great start for your classic daytime look,or your smokey eye look.Either one you will be set...Enjoy xoxo,britebee

Spring into FASHION during winter to get the best deals

If your looking to save a buck and still look cute follow these rules to help BUILD your Spring wardrobe.
1.SEARCH CLEARANCE
-the prices are low right now because people are buying clothes to keep them warm not clothes to keep them cool
-Stores have to get rid of their inventory to prepare for the next whatever they have left will be extra cheap because the season has passed.
2. BUY KEY PIECES IN BULK (IF ON SALE)
3.LOOK ONLINE FOR DEALS
4.START LOOKING AT FASHION MAGS..TO SEE WHAT THE HOTTEST TRENDS ARE BEFORE THEY BECOME POPULAR..THEREFORE,YOU SAVE MONEY BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE AREN'T BUYING THE SAME THINGS RIGHT NOW.
I hope these 4 rules I always follow..summer,winter,spring and fall help you save lots of money and look extra cute!! <3 Britney
