Have you ever wondered if you’re in vogue when doing your make-up? Well here are a few do's and don’ts of make-up.
Don'ts
1. The white eyeliner across the lash line makes me cringe, white eyeliner generally should be used on the membrane to open the eyes and give a more rested look. 2. The heavy eyeliner up under the eye is so blah. Eyeliner is meant to frame the eye, in some cases to make the eye appear bigger, liner just on the bottom, tends to drag the eye down, and can accent darkness around or under the eye. 3. The itsy bitsy spider found its way to some peoples eyelashes. Find mascara that is infused with beeswax, it does not crystallize so you won't get the clumpy spider look. 4. I know you have seen that person that has on the wrong color foundation. Make the adjustment in your foundation from season to season we are not the same complexion year around. Adjusting the color will keep you from having the line of demarcation. 5. Find a bronzer that has a brown undertone it will keep you from having the orange cast, Halloween is over and the pumpkin look was never in.
Do's 1. Always apply make-up on a clean face, it going to look so much better. 2. Try products on before you buy them, that way you can wear it around before you buy them. 3. Invest in primer for the eyelid, eyelashes, and face. Primer extends the wear of your make up. This is good for you if you work long days, or don’t like doing a lot touching up. 4. Go and get your make-up professionally done at least once a month, it keeps you abreast on what’s going on in the make-up world. 5. Take care of you eyes, neck, and back of the hands. These are places that age the fastest. There are creams that will aid in this aging process. All in all there is true beauty in unity; love it, embrace it, but most off all have fun its just make-up.

Just way too much work—my life was my career and I had no other life. It started when I was 15 and I hadn’t learned the importance of balance, making sure I took a day off. I didn’t know what ‘no’ was, what boundaries were. At this point, I know that after a certain amount of time I have to go home. I know what I like now.
