1. Frothing Your Foundation

The purpose of this is to make your skin shine and all you need is a highlighter. Mix your foundation with that shimmer and apply. Now, you’ll look glowy, but this glow would be different.

It would seem as though you’re glowing from within. This is one way to have fun with your makeup and also make your skin look its best.
3. Barbie Ponytail Hack
You can agree that Barbie has the perfect ponytail that’s high and full. It’s a dreamy ponytail and there’s a trick to make yours look like that, even if your hair is not as thick or long.

First, make a half ponytail (the top part of your hair tied up). Then, take the rest part of the hair and split it in two. Wrap those two pieces around the base of your half ponytail to hide the hair tie. This is what will make your ponytail look long and full.
4. Skin Cycling
Dr. Whitney Bowe came up with the idea to have a schedule for your skin. It’s like changing your skincare routine every few days because of what your skin needs per time.

You’re not just changing your routine for changing sake, you want it to match your skin’s natural cycle. So, if you’re breaking out at a point, use products to stop that. If your skin feels dry after a few days, you change your routine and focus on hydration. She said this is more effective instead of sticking to one routine day in, day out.
5. Siren Eyes
In makeup, your eyes can be a charm. You can achieve this by using your eyeliner and eyeshadow to create a wing by the corner of your eyes.

You can use dark colors like brown or black for a very cool effect. And, you can also use sharp colors or some sparkle to make it stand out.
6. Ombre Blush
Instead of using one color for your blush, you can mix colors and blend them to create a cool effect. All the colors you’re blending will make your face look brighter and more alive.
