QUICK FIXES FOR YOUR MAKEUP MISTAKES – PART 1

May 26,2016

We are all prone to making makeup mistakes, especially when in a hurry to get to class, to the office, to an appointment, etc. Luckily, for every makeup mistake, there’s a quick fix that will not only help save time, but will also help get the desired look!

 

1. Broken Powder Case 

The Mistake: It’s that moment where your life flashes before your eyes; when you drop your favorite powder on the bathroom tile where it breaks into a million pieces within the case. Your first thought might be to just throw it away, but this little trick will save you from buying another powder….so soon!

The Quick Fix: Take the tip of a bobby pin and crush up the powder into small refined pieces, then take some rubbing alcohol and pour a little bit into the case. Put saran wrap(cling film) over the powder and gently press down to mold the powder back into the case. Let sit until dry and your powder will be good as new!

2. Mascara Mishap

The Mistake: It happens to all of us—either you accidentally poke yourself in the eye with a mascara wand or your body decides to punish you by sneezing right after applying a beautiful application of mascara.

The Quick Fix: Don’t worry, this is an easy mistake to fix if you just wait! Keep going with your routine of getting ready and let the mascara smear dry. Then, take a q-tip and just flick away any unwanted mascara on the skin and get on with your day.

3. Mismatched Foundation

The Mistake: It’s a realization that usually happens when you step into natural lighting, look into a mirror, and realize that your foundation definitely does not match your neck.

The Quick Fix: There are a few ways to fix this problem. Either blend foundation down to your neck so that you don’t have demarcation lines (the lines you get on your jawline from where your foundation stops and your natural skin starts because it doesn’t match your skin tone). Or, you can color correct foundation by using a lighter or darker powder foundation as the case may be.

4. Over Lined Lips 

The Mistake: So you’re lining your lips, trying to perfect the Kylie Jenner look, and you go a little overboard. The easiest way to fix this mistake, rather than taking it all off and starting over again, is to use two products.

The Quick Fix: Use a flat concealer brush and concealer in the same color as your foundation, clean up the unwanted lip liner around the edges of your mouth to get the perfect pout!

WHOOP WHOOP!!! Perfection all the way!!!
