Beauty Tips w/ Tamar - Lashes, Liner & Lips (& the finished look!)

Happy Valentines Day everyone!!!

Today is the last installment of Beauty Tips w/ Tamar! So far we've gone through contouring your face with foundations and powders, creating an eyeshadow look for night and shaping your eyebrows.

Today we work on wing tipped liner and mascara.

Step 1: Liquid liner should be a one step flowy motion. Starting at the mid section of your lid work your way out to the end of the lid with an angle upwards. It may take a few tries if it's your first time!

Step 2: With a pencil liner, line the bottom lash line - half way.
Step 3: Depending on your mascara wand you can create volume in different ways. With a volumonous mascara lay the wand on the top side of your lashes moving left to right, seperating the lashes.
Step 4: This time, lay the wand on the bottom side of your lashes, move upwards.
Step 5: Apply the gloss!

TA-DA! Finito!

Today's post is all about contouring your face with the perfect foundations, powders and bronzers. I always think that Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez have such great bone structure but if you look closer it's the contouring of their makeup that gives off the look. Contouring is a great way to create structure and shadowing with a few simple steps!

Step 1: Moisturize your face and neck for a soft base.
Step 2: Using a primer, brush around the areas of your face that have the most redness.

Step 3: Using a concealer, brush around the eyes to reduce dark circles. Blend it around the lid and creases.

Step 4: Mixing together a foundation and a tinted moisturizer, brush over entire face and neck to give flawless coverage. Using a loose powder to seal in the foundation.

Step 5: With your contour powder, brush upward under the cheekbones, the outer areas of your forehead and under your jaw line, this will blend all areas.

Step 6: Choose a blush of your choice and before brushing onto your face it is best to dab it on your hand to remove the access powder. This will reduce the amount that goes on and will look more natural. Brush in upward motions on your cheekbones.

THAT'S IT! Next Tuesday we will work eyebrows and eyeshadow!

A big thank you to our lovely model, Lynds!
