These tricks are not one-off. You can use them every time and they cut across almost everything. So, let’s dive in.
Blush Magic
Blush is a multitasker. It’s not for your cheeks alone, but also for your lips and eyes. When you use the same blush color for your cheeks, lips, and eyes, it blends perfectly.

This trick is awesome because you don’t have to carry different Makeup around, as one is already doing the job of three. You should try it, have fun with it, and see what looks you can create.
Tape for Eyeliner
Eyeliners are really tricky because it’s a very visible part of your makeup. If you don’t get it right, it would mean that you ruined your makeup.

If you’ve tried to draw it perfectly on your own and it didn’t come out well, don’t stress. Get your tape and use it as a ruler to mark your straight line. When you’re done, gently pull it off and admire what you just did.
Concealer Brow Magic
Your brows won’t be perfect all the time, and you have to get used to that. However, you should know how to make it look awesome regardless.

After the baby powder, add another coat of mascara to your lashes. It would stick to the powder and give your lashes that illusion of being fuller. Baby powder is used because it’s gentle and would be friendly to your eyes.
Spoon as Mascara Guard
Mascara and eyeliners can be messy sometimes when you’re trying to get it right. So, what you should do is use a spoon to prevent that. Get a small one and put it over your eyelid, like an umbrella.

When applying your mascara, the spoon will catch any mistakes and prevent it from entering your skin. Also, it would give you a food finish because there’ll be no smudges.
Highlighter for Glow
Use your highlighter to glow in the right places. You should be focusing on your cheekbones, brow bones, nose tip, etc. These are the high points of your face.

So, gently dab a bit of highlighter on these parts and make sure you blend properly. You can always adjust whenever you feel it’s necessary. Glowing up gives you that lively countenance.
Setting Spray Secret
When you’re done with all your makeup and you’re looking so pretty, use a setting spray to keep it all intact. It’s the real makeup shield because it protects your makeup from sliding off.
