Choose a pencil and powder in the correct shade. Women with fair
complexions should use a blonde shade, those with olive tones should go tawny or brown,
and those with with African-American skin should use gray.
Brush brows downward with a dry, mascara-like wand. To define the
arch, use the pencil to draw a line along the upper edge of the brow. Comb the brows
upward and outward.
For added fullness, dust eye shadow into the hairs of the brow
with a stiff, slanted brush. Dip the brush into a tiny amount of powder and use short,
gentle strokes while applying.
If brows have been severely overtweezed, brush the hairs in the
direction of the growth, and fill in any visible patches with powder. Avoid adding to the
top or bottom of the brows.
Comb a clear brow gel up through the brows to set hairs in place.

The best lip color fixative? - A thin layer of Chapstick. The
formula holds lip color like crazy as it heals and protects.
Powder lips also gives lip color or gloss something to cling to
for longer, smoother wear.
For longer wear, blot lips after applying lipstick to set color
and remove excess. Add a thin layer of loose or pressed powder, then apply color again.
Turn down too much shine by holding a single-ply tissue to your
lips and pressing a little loose powder through it - just enough will sift through the
tissue to adhere to color and reduce the shine.
Turn up the shine with a thin layer of clear lip gloss over
lipstick or alone.
For high-voltage shine and color, try a lip lacquer over lipstick
or alone.
For fuller, poutier lips, spotlight lip gloss right in the center
of your mouth.
Keep matte lip color from drying your lips - use a lip primer or
lip color fixative before you apply the matte color.
For evening special-effects, apply a sheer lip gloss in silver,
gold or an iridescent shade over the lip color.

Make Small Lips Look Larger - Apply a little vaseline or lip gloss to the
middle of the bottom lip, which brings the lips out, making them look larger.
Make Large Lips Look Smaller - Use the deeper colors in your palette (deep
color makes the lips recede), and stick to a matte formula; keep away from shiny glosses.

How To Aply Lipstick And Lip Liner... |
Do Liner
First
Lip liner is optional but if you use it, it should go on first. Don't use liner
darker than your lipstick, because if the lipstick fades and the liner doesn't, you're
left with just an outline. Use neutral or lipstick-matched liner.
Starting at the center of your upper lip, draw a line to each outer corner, following the
edge of your natural lip line.
Fill in color all over lips if you want extra holding power for your lipstick.
*Hint: Chill lip pencil in the refrigerator for a few minutes to make sharpening easier.
Lipstick
A dusting of powder or bit of foundation beneath lipstick can maximize its
staying power. Either can dry lips, though, so use a creamy formula lipstick.
Stretch your lips and starting at the center of top or bottom, glide color to corners.
Blot, reapply and blot again for longer-lasting color.
*Hint: A lip brush gives you the most precision in applying lipstick.
