[fake perfect skin]
Concealer is only half the battle when it comes to fixing flaws. To really perfect your complexion, no matter what you're skin tone is, try wearing a lipstick in warm pink. It will distract people's eyes from blemishes and other imperfections.

[white eyeliner]
White eyeliner on your lower rims will make your eyes appear bigger. If you're the kind of girl who feels like a ring of dark eyeliner makes you look like you have small, dime eyes. Apply the liner to the inner corner of your eye as well to brighten up the look.
Recommended products:
- NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil in Milk
- Sephora Nano Eyeliner- Pure White
- Revlon Eye Matte Color Kohl Eyeliner in White

[choosing concealer]
If your skin tends to be ruddy, or reddish, use a green color corrective stick. If you have a sallow, or yellow complexion, look for a concealer in shades of lilac or pink. Olive or darker skin tones need a peachy or apricot concealer.
Recommended products:
- Smashbox Photo Ready Concealer

[bold brows]
Comb your brows with a spoolie brush or clean mascara wand to see how they lay naturally. Using a soft, slightly waxy brow pencil, shape the brow by using the thinner side of the tip. Then, take the flatter angle of the pencil and fill in the brow using short strokes. Finish by blending a shimmery highlighter just below the brow bone to add brightness and lift.

[sky-high lashes]
Be sure that your mascara is no more than a month old- fresh mascara glides on easier and wont flake. Wiggle the mascara wand in at the base of the lash and sweep outward and upward. The trick to perfect lashes is to get the thickness in at the base of the lashes and taper them naturally to the ends, as opposed to chunky, thick ends.

- L'Oreal LashOut Mascara

[primers]
Makeup primers are just that. They prime your skin before adding any other makeup. Foundation primers will even out your skin tone, shrink pores and visible lines, and absorb oil so your makeup will stay on longer. They should be applied to a clean face, and some are moisturizing enough so you don't have to moisturize. Eye makeup primers keep eye makeup where you put it, keep the crease away, and make it virtually smudge proof.

- Urban Decay Primer Potion
- bareVitamins Prime Time

[sunscreen in the winter]
Yes, it's true- you should still wear sunscreen in the winter. UVA rays stay the same all year round, and can cause wrinkles and skin cancer later on in life if your skin isn't protected. Put on a moisturizer with at least SPF 15 under your makeup every day. Believe me, you'll thank yourself for that later in life.
Recommended products:
- Aveeno Ultra Daily Moisturizer SPF 15
- Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisturizer SPF 15

[greasy hairline]
If your hairline starts to get greasy, and you don't have time to shower, dip a big makeup brush into loose powder. Tap it once on the back of your hand to remove excess, then dust it over your roots. It mops up oil and blends into your strands.
