Have you ever noticed how some women seem to be clued up on make up tips, and others don’t have a clue? Many times I’ve wondered how women are expected to learn, and just recently, I’ve been collecting the beauty tricks of my favorite beautiful people. After all, we all want to look great! Here are my favourite beauty tips that you need to know…

1. Skip The Foundation

This probably is my favorite beauty secret to share. Most women do not need foundation. While it can become a habit to apply, its purpose is to give a smooth surface for make up application, and an even tone. More and more teens are wearing it, though. The first make up tip every woman should know? Foundation does not cover up nasty acne, and most women simply don’t need it.

2. Concealer Tip

Concealer is a life saver if you use it correctly and is very easy to apply. So why are most women taught to rub it in?! Concealer is meant to be patted in, not rubbed. This allows it to cover up blemishes ‘naturally’, without irritating the blemish further.

3. Lips or Eyes

Similar to legs or cleavage, this is one of those rules which should never be broken. If you are playing up your eyes, use a nude lipstick, and if you are going for statement lips, keep eyes neutral and apply a coat of a great mascara.
