So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Foundation and Concealer

The initial action in applying makeup is choosing the great foundation. This is done by matching the makeup with your skin tone and complexion. Always assure the makeup is well blended and there are no foundation lines around the neck. For any visible blemishes or black circles below the eyes, a concealer can be used. Just dab it on smoothly and blend it in good with the foundation.

Eye Makeup

Once your foundation is applied, your eyes are the next essential step. You do not want your eye shadow to match the color of your prom dress up, however , you do want it to compliment the clothes. In order to highlight your eyes, you will use a lighter shade or the base color from the lash line to the brow. Use a darker shade as a contour along the upper lash line from the center toward the outer corner, after that back along crease.

With an eyeliner pencil, draw a single line above upper lash line from inner to outer corner. After that, draw a line under your lower lashes from outer to inner corner.

Mascara adds the finishing contact to your eye lids. Hold the brush vertically to stroke your lower lashes. Afterward, for your upper lashes, wiggle the brush back and forth at the base, and then sweep the brush upward.

Blush

Lipstick

Your lips can be brought out by lining them with a pencil, then filling them in having a creamy lipstick. This will give definition and body to your lips. Glossy lipstick may be used for that wonderful look.

Powder

Only one tip: Do not use any of your friend's makeup (especially eye makeup). Bacteria may be in the makeup because it has been opened and used. This can cause eye infection or pink eye. If you are having your makeup done professionally, take your personal lipstick with you.

These makeup tips may too be used for other occasions in which formal dresses, homecoming gowns and Quinceanera gowns are worn. Makeup and prom garments can blend to bring out your magnificence on your distinctive evening!
