Makeup Tips & Tricks For Your Eyes





Makeup Tips & Tricks

1.  To Create Distance.
If you have close set eyes this tip is for you. Apply eyeliner only at the outer counters of your lower lids, then flick the line 1 or 2milimeter beyond.

2.  Bright Eyes.
To brighten eyes apply a dot of gold cream shadow at inner corners of eyes. this makes the eyes look more open and looks great in the light.

3. Lush Lashes.
  To make lashes more lush apply to types of mascara, one that is volumizing and then one that is a lengthening mascara.
4. Full and Thicker.
To make lashes appear full and thick at the base of your lashes put the wand right up to the roots of your lashes and wiggle it before drawing the wand up.
5. Curl.
To lock in the curl, curl your lashes twice, once before mascara and once after mascara but make sure the the mascara is completely dry first because you don't want your lashes to stick to the eye lash curler and pull an eye lash out.

What are some of your number beauty tip or trick you use for your eyes?

Matte Polishes

Matte Polishes do you love them or hate them, I'm still undecided I think the texture can be pretty with some colours but what I don't like is they come off quickly. Recently I bought two polishes one from O.P.I and one from ORLY.

Viridian Vinyl is from the Plastix Collection which comes in 4 fun colours, Purple Pleather ,Old School Orange,  Retro Red and of course Viridian Vinyl. This colour is a blue-green teal that is some what similar to a colour by Sally Hansen called Fairy Teal, but I think this colour is much more pretty. This collection is not fully a matte polishes it's bit of a mix between glossy and matte. This colour is one of my favourites so far from my nail polish collection.


Next up is O.P.I Russian Navy - Matte polish. This colour is a deep indigo, I like the colour from far away it looks good but up close ummm I have to say I don't really like this matte polish, I think it looks way better with a top coat unfortunately it still comes off quick even with a top coat applied. 

Do you like matte polishes?
What are some of your favourite colours if you do like them?
