| Make up tricks and tips? Since we are talking about make up or no make up on the other thread, I thought we could maybe share some make up tricks or tips? Okay, let's me start first. Use Vaseline as "lip primer", then apply lipstick, then use Vaseline again to finish up. It will give your lips moisture and a "lip gloss" effect. Eye Make up removal: You could also use Vaseline as cleansing oil. Apply Vaseline on your eyelids, then use cotton pad to remove it. It will help speed up the eye make up removal process. Vaseline is much cheaper also!! Help us save some bucks in this tough economy! Okay, ladies (or gentlemen), what are your make up tricks and tips? |

| Blending is key.. Blending your eyeshadow is key to your eye makeup looking good. A good blending brush and you are set. XOXO

| I hardly ever wear lipstick or gloss. I don't like to because it makes the skin on my lips peel. Does anyone else have this problem? I would love a tip or trick to fix this, any ideas?

| If you put foundation on your lips BEFORE applying your lipstick..it will make it last longer throughout the day.

| i use baby wipes to remove make- up. i use white shadow in my eye corner to make them look bigger. Photo Finish from Smashbox is my make up primer secret. It makes your skin look perfect.

IMHO I think gel eyeliners in a pot are the best. Once you get the hang of using an eye liner brush, it's soooo easy and fast and the liner stays put. I've used pencil, liquid, pen, and liquid that lets you use your eye shadow as liner. Pencil smeared and wore off, liquid was hard to apply and ran if your eye barely watered. Now I use Stila Smudge Pots or Loreal HIP eye liners in a pot. I got my eye liner brush at Sephora.

| Actually, you could save lots of money on eyeliner. Red Stick by Maybelline is a staple for me and has been for the past 6 - 7 years & has been my mom's staple for a million years. Take a lighter and melt it a tad, run the lighter on the tip briefly, let it dry then apply. My liner used to last all day at school and the rest of the evening until I took it off before bed. I've been asked by 50 million people what type of liner I use & I'm always so happy to be able to share such a cheap idea with them. I usually just blend my shadow with my finger, I get the result I'm looking for better than I do when I use a brush. Always apply your mascara (on your eyelid eyelashes) to the top of the lashes first then underneath. Wiggle it a bit then sweep up. Only apply a bit to the bottom lashes (on the bottom of your eye). A cheap alternative to Bare Essentuals is Everyday Minerals. You can buy a sample kit for free & only pay shipping. I got 1 concealer, 1 foundation & 3 blushes for $3.95 shipped. I prefer liquid make-up though as the "mineral powder" just seemed to set into the little lines under my eyes. I'm a make-up freak, it's the main reason why I started cosmetology school.

| i LOVE MAC makeup. imo the powerpoint eyeliner is the best ever.. its waterproof and lasts! i like fluid line too but you have to apply it with a angled brush but its a really good eyeliner that lasts as well if you dont like pencil. they both are really really black foundation primer is good too because it evens out the texture of your face so foundation goes on smoothly and evenly. smashbox makes a good one. eyeshadows! primer is also a key to making it last all day & also if you dont want creases. i have a variety of blending brushes and it is key especially if you want to use more than one color. PM if you have questions! or want more tips i should post a tutorial on here one day

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I always use Blistex (SPF 45) under my lipstick, even if I don't wear lipstick, it keeps my lips moisturized and keeps them from peeling, my lips are naturally dry.

| I always scrub my lips with a wash cloth and it helps when I use lip gloss so my lips aren't all peely.

I 100% believe in being able to make your make-up look awesome and sometimes even better without spending tons of money on "higher end" stuff. I used to love waterproof mascara but I hate it now, I don't know why.

| I don't like it when women put eyeliner all around their eyes. I only use it on the bottom when I am using color. It makes your eyes look smaller and it is so unnatural. I love liquid eyeliner, it just takes practice. Wet & Wild sells really cheap and vibrant eyeliners that I love. Anyone know where I can find colored mascara? I have blue and black, but I used to have pink, purple, and green, and when they dried up, I couldn't find them anywhere!
