Behind the girl's mask

Alright, the big papers are over and it's party party party and even more parties. YOWZA.
Today's post is different and it'll be specificallly for girls. However if you're a guy, you COULD continue reading, if you're curious to know what goes one behind the mask of a girl and why she always takes soooooo long to doll up herself. Girls, a big favour for you. This is all the make-up buster 101 for your tips on partying. (: ENJOY.

Nails and hair
-Dark red nail colour is a foolproof shade for the party reason.
-Avoid black nail polish at all cost, unless you are planning to be a goth, join the circus while you're at it.
-No time for manicure? Just make sure nairls are filed neatly(Short is always the best bet, unless you're a cat and you want to dig someone's eyeballs out)and paint over with clear gloss.
-Having a bad hair day on a BIG PARTY NIGHT? Pin it up in a loose bun or tie it into a perky pony tail. The greater part of hairstyles now is that a little messiness and imperfection is trendy. No one would even notice! (:
-Avoid applying products like holding spray or moulding paste (Unless you want a mohawk) to hair roots because you'll risk weighing it down and loosing all the volume.

Eyes and Lips
-Lipstick or gloss won't last long on dry flaky lips sooooo pre-lippy, gently exfoliate lips with either a SOFT toothbrush or wash cloth for about 10 seconds.

-Apply LIP BALM BEFORE LIPSTICK for a moist pout. Use one that isn't too greasy or lip colour will slip off; wait 5 minutes for it to sink in, blot off excess and then apply lip colour.

-Concentrate high shine lip gloss on the central area of the lips to add volume and an incredible plumping effect.

-ALWAYS WANTED STUNNING EYES INSTANTLY? Just line it, curl the lashes and apply a few coats of mascara and PRESTO you're done. [:

-If it's going to be a long night, opt for a waterproof mascara. This will ensure you don't have raccoon eyes by the end of the night.

-To avoid crumpy lashes by the end of the evening, be patient during prep.Let each mascara coat dry before the next application.

-Cream eyeshadows with light shimmer are easier to handle than powders to be honest. Just dab on and blend into skin with fingertips or a brush. If you want a more intense colour, apply more layers. They're foolproof.

Cheeks and skin
- Apply foundation from the middle of the face and outwards so that fine facial hairs on the side won't ve over coated and look conspicious.
-Cream blushers give a more natural glow then liquid ones, to cheeks and aren't as streaky as powder textures.
-Make sure skin is well mositurised before applying foundation so that make up won't look cakey.
-Avoid scrubbing skin too hard with exfoliator just before going out- you'll end up with red or blotchy skin, which is difficult to conceal.
-Want celebrity high cheekbones like Cameron Diaz or Lindasay Lohan or Paris Hilton (I know the last 2 are bitches but eck for abit), dab highlighter very lightly along the top of cheekbones to emphasis the cheek apples.
-Have a big night ahead and need makeup that endures? Spritz a light layer of facial mist over the entire face to set a foundation and powder and to get skin looking naturally flawless. I say spritz NOT wash ahh.
-Never ever trust a foundation for eye concealer, it's the wrong texture to be used and it won't cover properly. A concealer is a concelear, a foundation is a foundation.
-Ever notice how makeup settles and looks natural only after 30 t0 45 minutes? To acheive this effect instantly, rub your hands together really fast untill you feel the heat build up. Then press your hands on cheeks for 5 seconds to let your natural oils come through

Now at one point of time of the night, there will be a big nice mirror on it ayee? So shiny, eve more bling bling then your necklace and diamonds. Carry out powder for touch up, or use powdered paper. Works big time! [:


Have fun looking glamerous girls.
