Add Dimension to Your Face

One beauty trick I love to share with women is how to add dimension to their faces using bronzer. Applied along the jawline and on the temples, bronzer can give your face the illusion of being chiseled.
You know how great you feel with a tan? Well bronzer can also have that affect on you, adding color to an otherwise sallow face. To add color, use a big rounded brush to apply on the spots where the sun naturally hits -- your forehead, cheeks and nose. Be sure to blow off excess bronzer so you don't go overboard.

Hydrate Your Face

 

Makeup artists know the secret to a flawless makeup job is actually not in the makeup, but in the state of the skin. Great skin is hydrated skin.
Before you apply eye makeup or foundation, always start with a generous slathering on of the moisturizer. This step is super important because it plumps up skin, and can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Apply a hydrating moisturizer over your entire face and dot eye cream around your eyes. Over your driest areas, dab a bit of super rich face balm. (You can skip this part if you have oily skin or you have never in your life considered the need for a face balm).
