3 tips to a flawless face

Keep that liner on fleek

To keep the edges of your top liquid/ gel liner on point use the secret of tape. Place clear tape on the back of your hand to get some of the stickiness off and place the tape upwards from the outer corner of your eye in the shape of how you want your eyeliner to look. This will help if you tend to be a little sloppy with top liner or if you just need some extra help.

Dark under eye circles no more

Using a lighter shade of concealer will help you achieve a bright under-eye highlight. Apply the concealer in a triangle shape from the inner corner of your eye to the end of your nose to the outer end of your eye. Blend it out with a beauty blender or a makeup brush. Remember to use dabbing motions instead of swiping motions. Place a translucent powder so you’ll be crease free.

Skip the Kylie Jenner lip challenge

Instead of sucking on a shot glass to achieve Kylie Jenner’s luscious lips use a lip liner for a quick trick. Start off by taking your favorite lip liner that is the same shade of your lips. Before applying lipstick or lip-gloss, apply the liner slightly above the tops of your lips. Make sure to fill in your lips with the liner and apply your favorite lipstick on top.
