Here are some simple makeup tips and tricks to have your makeup last longer.

Long lasting EYE Makeup Tips:

  • If you wanna have a long-lasting eyeshadow, use an eyelid primer or any eyeshadow base that you want! Eye primers  extend your makeup application by hours plus it pops out the color of your eyeshadow.
  • Use gel liners or any liquid liners that is waterproof. Remember                gel liners, liquid liners or cream eyeliners had 4 times staying power compare to pencil eyeliner. Plus it is smudge proof. You definitely don't want your eyeliner creasing unto your lids.
  • Get  perfect lashes all day! Using an eyelash curler with a blow dryer. Add volume to your lashes by applying two coats of your favorite mascara. If you’re having trouble with flaky lashes , try applying eyelash primer before your waterproof mascara.

Long lasting FOUNDATION makeup tips:

  • Start with a clean face, before applying your foundation primer make sure you moisturize first your face with your facial moisturizer. Be sure it has SPF!
  • Wait for 5 mins after applying your moisturizer. Allow the skin to absorb the moisturizer then applying your face or foundation primer. Foundation primer will make your foundation last longer and it gives non-cakey effect.
  • After applying your foundation, make sure you always use a powder in setting your foundation. Any matte compact powder, mineral powder or translucent powder will do.  Take your powder with you to do touch ups throughout the day.
  • Use blotting sheets for lasting foundation to remove excess oil.  DON'T EVER try to remove excess oil by just touching up your foundation with your compact powder. It’s a big no no no! It will clog your pores and sometimes it’s the cause of blemishes and pimples. Plus it’s nasty!

Long lasting LIP makeup tips:
  • Go ahead and apply your foundation into your lips. By doing so, you will achieve a longer lasting coverage. Just a thin layer of foundation will do.
  • Use a lip liner to keep your lipstick in place. Line and fill the whole lips then apply your lipstick. Blot in a tissue paper. Apply the second coat then finish it with a lip gloss.

So there you have it, so simple and easy to follow makeup tricks to have a long lasting makeup. Hope you enjoy reading this. Till my next beauty tips gorgeous!  Don't forget to subscribe. J
