  1. Apply clear moisturizing lip balm to your lips this will help your lip gloss last longer.

  2. Use a lipstick that's a shade darker that your gloss stopping right before your lips' outline. If your lip gloss is clear use a nude or light pink color.

  3. Use liner to outline your lips stopping right before your lips' outline, this will draw attention to the center of your lips also giving your lips a fuller look.

  4. Finally apply your lip gloss.

Basic Skin Care Steps

The first and most important part of of having great skin is making sure that you take good care of it.


Wash:
Properly washing your face makes all the difference. The better job you do washing, the happier you'll be with your complexion.


  1. Make sure that you have the right cleanser for your skin, there are many kinds that range from dry to oily.

  2. DON'T use bar soap because its will dry out your skin.

  3. Wash in a circular; this will help circulation.

  4. Wash with warm water for 30 seconds on each part of you face; forehead, nose, cheeks, chin and neck.

Exfoliate:
Exfoliating your skin will help leave your skin softer and gives it the glow that everyone loves.



  1. Exfoliate once a week. Exfoliating removes all your dead skin cell that leave your complexion dull.

  2. You can use either a mask or a scrub. Depending on the scrub, you may be adding nutrients to your skin like if you use an avocado mask.
Moisturize:
Moisturizers seal in moisture that keeps your skin feeling soft and hydrated.



  1. When your skin is tight its telling you that its need moisture! But the amount of moisturizer is different for everyone. If you tend to have drier skin then you'll need more but if your skin tends to be more oily then you'll have to use less.

  2. DON'T over moisturize, it will cause you pores to clog.


These simple basics will help your skin stay happy and healthy.
