15 Make Up Tips for Better Senior Photos ...

OMG! Don't get caught looking like a nightmare for your
Senior Pictures! Follow these simple tips and you'll be Fabulous!

Your face:

#1 -- Want a Quick Way to Remove Blackheads?
Steam your face for a few minutes and exfoliate immediately afterwards! Finish by closing pores with a cool compress.

#2 -- Large Pores?
To take care of enlarged skin pores you need lemon juice and orange juice. Mix the juices and apply all over your face in upward and outward stokes. Wash it after 10 minutes. This is also a good facial mask for oily skin!! Also try: Ingredients: -one green tomato -one teaspoon of honey. Directions: using a blender, puree the tomato with the honey, apply to a clean face and leave on for 20 minutes, then wash.

#3 -- Moisturizer, Primer, and Oil Blocker in One!
To create your own multitasking product, mix a pea sized amount of Vaseline with your moisturizer. It creates a dewy finish without looking greasy. The jelly also doesn’t clog pores! The molecules are too large to get into pores!

#4 -- Over-treated a Bad Pimple? Flaking and Scaling on a Random Patch of Skin?
Instead of panicking or slathering on moisturizer over your make-up, reach for your lips’ best friend. Use a good waxy lip balm, apply it to the dry patch and lightly rub with your finger. The ingredients in the lip balm will moisturize the spot while the wax will hold the moisture in place without affecting your makeup!

#5 -- Foundation Perfection!
When your foundation is applied correctly, it should look like you aren’t wearing any at all! First, test the color of the foundation on your jaw line. It should disappear into the skin and blend well between the face and neck. Then, apply the foundation to the face, starting in the center and blending it over the nose working outwards. You can apply this with a foundation brush of your fingers. Finally, brush the whole face with some translucent powder to keep it set.

#6 -- Stressed? It Will Show!
Here are a few suggestions on how to detox for senior pics: Natural aromatherapy oils or candles in the home - Listen to calming music at night - have a massage at least once a month - exercise at least 30 minutes a day - take a 20 minute walk in the evening - take all natural vitamins daily - And don’t forget to smile!

#7 -- Don’t Brush Your Hair!
Try not to brush your hair so much. Too much brushing or combing will stimulate the glands to produce oil.

#8 -- Let Those Dull Nails Shine!
If you find your nail polish has become dull, coat polished nails with a drop of olive oil. Rub it in to your cuticles as well. Your nails will be shining again in no time. (We suggest clear nails or French style … not brightly colored).

#9 -- Eye Liner and Lip Pencil
Before sharpening your eyeliner or lip pencil, place it in the freezer for around 10 minutes. They will harden slightly and not break when sharpened.

#10 -- Fix Chipped Polish on the Quick
Use a file and smooth out the chipped polish until the ridge is even with the nail. Apply polish on to the chipped area, and then let it dry. Afterwards, re-coat the entire nail.

#11 -- No Pumps!
Don’t pump the brush in and out of the mascara tube, the trapped air will dry the mascara out.

Lip Service:

#12 -- Slipping lip gloss?
To stop your lip gloss from slipping, rub an ice cube over your lips after applying.

#13 -- The Flaky Pout
Make a lip scrub: mix granulated sugar with petroleum jelly (aka: Vaseline). Rub on your lips and apply lip balm.

#14 -- Make Your Lips *POP*
Line lips with a liner, and then dip a Q-tip in a similar color powder, and run along the line. This will create a mouth that pops out.

#15 -- Want to Create Your Own Lip Color?
Create your own lip color by using a sheer lip-gloss and mixing it with a favorite eye shadow.
