Babydoll eyelashes have been seen on everyone from models to Hollywood celebrities, and they continue to grow in popularity as spring rolls on. If you’re interested in achieving this beautiful look, you don’t have to be naturally blessed with long lashes! All you need is the proper eye makeup to enhance your appearance and give your peepers a boost.
First, make sure you have a long-lasting, volumizing mascara on hand to give your lashes some much-needed TLC. If you’re afraid of black being too dramatic for the occasion, opt for brown instead for a more casual appearance.
Next, put your lash curler to work. Spend at least 30 seconds crimping the lashes of each eye to give them flawless curves that draw attention to your face. Then, apply a lash primer to prep them for additional makeup and help them hold their curls.
Finally, take your time while applying your mascara. Daily Makeover recommends waiting a few seconds in between adding coats to prevent a goopy look. In the end, you’ll have long, voluptuous lashes. Whether you’re heading out for a night on the town or you’re simply going to work, there’s never a bad time to flaunt babydoll lashes.
Ever since actresses like Gwenyth Paltrow have stepped out wearing berry-tinted lipstick, more women have become infatuated with the idea of doing the same, according to Bella Sugar. Spring is the perfect time to play around with these bright shades, which can instantly perk up any pout. However, it can be challenging to find the right hue for your skin tone.
There are a few tips you can use to find the right berry shade for your lips. First, MSN recommends applying darker tints on your lips with a brush. This can give you more control over how opaque it appears on your pout, which can prevent your lipstick from looking too gothic on your face.
Next, try out the lipstick if you can before bringing it home. Many makeup counters will allow you to do so with testers or samples – don’t undervalue the opportunity!
Finally, make sure you apply your makeup in a brightly lit area to get a good idea of how it will look on you once you step outside. By taking these tidbits of information into account, you can wear berry shades like a pro!
Now that you have your BABORÂ cosmetics in line for spring, you might be wondering what else you can add to your collection for the coming months. After all, the warm weather is worth celebrating, and you can show your excitement through your makeup and clothing!
One trend that appears to be growing in popularity is red and pink eyeshadow, according to Style Bistro. While it might seem unusual to wear a pop of color like this on your lids, the fact of the matter is that these hues can work wonders around your peepers, especially when you want to look energetic. Everyone from models to Hollywood celebrities have been seen wearing shades of pink and red, and you can easily take advantage of this trend as well.
The Huffington Post recommends beginning with a primer to ensure that the color stays in place. Then, use a soft brush to blend and create a natural appearance. If you’re afraid of the color being too vivid, go neutral with makeup on the rest of your face. This will allow your eyes to do all of the talking without creating an overwhelming look.
Uma Thurman might only be 42 years old, but she has a teenage daughter who’s already taking on her good looks, according to The Daily Mail. Recently, she showed up to a New York City event alongside her daughter, Maya. At 14, she already has the looks of her mother, strawberry blonde hair and all!
At the event, Thurman wore a little black dress and lined her eyes with matching eyeliner to make her peepers truly pop. On her lips, she chose to wear a light pink glossy lipstick so her pout appeared more voluptuous. Mom also seemed to give her daughter permission to wear a little makeup of her own to the event – Maya had a darker shade of pink on her lips as she smiled for the cameras.
If you’re interested in sporting a similar look, you might want to go natural with makeup on the majority of your face, then focus color on your lips. Real Simple magazine recommends applying a corrective concealer to hide any unsightly blemishes or flaws. Then, look for a lipstick in a color that complements your skin tone while bringing more brightness and appeal to your face.
One color that’s practically synonymous with spring is pink, and even if you don’t consider it ideal on your pout, it’s worth sporting during this season. Victoria’s Secret angel Miranda Kerr recently showed that this hue is perfect on any day of the week, even in casual situations, according to Handbag.com.
A photo she published of herself on Instagram showcased her pout in a bright shade of pink, smiling wide. Kerr complemented the hue on her lips with a subtle pink blush on her cheeks. Even though she’s a professional model, Kerr’s look is one that anyone can pull off with the right makeup on hand!
If you don’t think that pink is right for your pout, you might simply need to find the right shade. InStyle magazine claims that one way to narrow down your options is to see how certain colors look on your lips when you smile. Tones that are about the same color as your gums are best.
Another way to ensure that you aren’t wearing a hue that’s too bold for your skin tone is to try it on in bright light. This will give you a better idea of how it will look once you apply it for an entire day. All of these tips can help you look your best!
If there’s one woman who knows a thing or two about looking glamorous, it’s Vera Wang. The renowned fashion designer recently made an appearance at the Tribeca Film Festival wearing a trendy ensemble that turned heads as she smiled for the cameras.
Wang wore all black in addition to stunning stilettos that gave her a few inches of height. On her head, she had a large black hat to match that topped off her chic look. However, it was her choice to go light with makeup that’s really worth noting.
The designer seemed to allow her outfit to speak for itself, wearing only a bit of black eyeshadow on her lids. Wang went for a subtle look on her lips as well, opting for a neutral glossy lipstick. She had just the right amount of makeup on for her dark, dramatic ensemble.
If you want to mimic Wang’s look, think about limiting the amount of eye makeup you wear if you’re already sporting a bold outfit. A simple gray or black eyeshadow on your lids is enough to draw attention to your peepers. Don’t overdo it with a flashy, bright color on your pout.
Chances are, you’ve already started stocking up on cosmetics for spring and summer, but trends are always changing. That being said, here are some makeup tips and items worth ditching as the warm weather rolls in, according to the Tampa Bay Times.
1. Hot pink eyeshadow
It might look terrific on runway models, but hot pink eyeshadow has no place on everyday women, even when they need to look their best for a big outing.
2. Bare lashes
Even if you think you aren’t going to run into anyone you know while you’re running errands, don’t buy into this trend – mascara is your friend! Not to mention, it only takes a couple of minutes to apply.
3. Neutral lips
One woman who’s guilty of this is Jennifer Garner – she showed up to the 2013 Oscars with eye-popping jewelry, but lackluster makeup. Consider going bold with a vivid lip color if you want to loo hot this season.
Vogue magazine recommends taking advantage of trends such as brown eye makeup to fall in line with this season’s trends. Doing so in combination with avoiding these faux pas can help you ensure that you always look your best this spring and summer.
There’s nothing quite like the look of a bright, fresh face, which is what Sharon Stone is known for in Hollywood. However, she took her appearance to a new level on April 5 at a gala to raise money for AIDS, according to The Huffington Post. Stone, who is typically seen wearing neutral makeup that highlights her natural beauty, decided to go bold.
On her face, Stone decided to wear dark purple eyeshadow and apply black eyeliner around her peepers. A deep magenta lipstick was on her pout, which made her smile seem more radiant when she posed for photographers. Not everyone loved her makeup choices, but Stone proved that you can still break all of the rules and look fabulous in the process.
If you’re interested in going bold with a vivid shade on your lips, there are a few ways you can pull it off without looking clownish. As a rule of thumb, Glamour magazine recommends toning down the makeup you wear on other parts of your face. It’s also a good idea to take your time while shopping for a bold lipstick – don’t make any purchases until you’re sure that the shade complements your skin tone!
When she isn’t making headlines for her outrageous party songs, Ke$ha is tearing it up on the red carpet. This is just what she did when she arrived at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards in what some are calling her most unusual outfit yet.
The pop star decided to go with pants – white see-through lace pants – and a floral printed tanktop. She donned a black vest, primarily made up of tassels that cascaded down to her knees. On her head, Ke$ha wore a large wide-brimmed hat with a purple flower. However, it was her makeup that seemed to steal the show.
The singer opted for dark violet lipstick – what some would call closer to black – and equally dark makeup around her peepers. She appeared to use liquid eyeliner around her eyes to create a cat-eye look that matched her eerie, creative ensemble.
Did you like what you saw from Ke$ha at the MTV Movie Awards? You can pull off dark lipstick of your own, as long as you take your skin tone into account, according to Cosmopolitan magazine. If you have fair skin, opt for a lighter shade of purple or magenta. Darker skin can allow you to go deeper and more dramatic with your lipstick.
When you’re a celebrity, you always need to be mindful of the possibility that someone may be just around the corner, waiting to take a picture of you. This is what actress Liv Tyler recently discovered when she tried to take a walk around New York City, according to The Daily Mail.
Tyler, who clearly didn’t want to be spotted, was seen strolling along the West Village in a dark hoodie, sunglasses and red lipstick. It wasn’t long before the media caught on to Tyler as she casually made her way through city streets in sneakers.
Despite trying to remain incognito, Tyler chose to opt for a bright, bold lipstick, and she looked fabulous while wearing it! If you want to give a vivid hue a try on your pout, O, The Oprah Magazine recommends selecting a color that complements your skin tone. Pat it onto your lips with your finger to create a stained, natural look.
If you aren’t used to wearing bold colors on your lips, keep in mind that confidence is key! Don’t try it unless you’re going to own it like a runway model on the streets!
