Corrective Colours



Corrective Colours

Correctors are used to counteract or neutralise tones found in the skin so foundation and concealer can work better.










Lilac/Lavender 

If you suffer from yellowing under the eyes, or your tan/warm skin is looking dull and grey, try a lilac primer or concealer. It brighten and evens your skin.





Green & Yellow Counteracts - Red/Pink 

If you suffer from rosacea or reddish skin try green or yellow concealer or primer, it will counteract the red tone in the skin. 
If you have cool skin tone try green or you have warmer skin tone try the yellow. 



    
Peach/Pink/Orange Correctors



Peach/Pink/Orange concealer brighten grey/purple/blue/green/dark under eye circles but keep in mind once you apply the corrector you may need to go back over the area with a foundation or concealer that matches your skin to ensure it blends out evenly. 

Light Pink for pale Skin 
Peach for Medium Skin
Orange for Dark Skin

Britney Spears in The Makeup Chair



How I would do it...

I would love to do Britney's makeup, 
and this is how I would do it...


On the left how Britney's makeup is done,
On the right how I would do her makeup.


With a little help from photo shop I add some makeup!

Britney suffers from break outs and oily skin, 
I would start with Smashbox Photo Finish Light 
(after using a cleanse, toner and moisturiser of course)

Her under eyes looked a little grey, I used a peach concealer to counteract that. 

Taking a lighter shade of foundation I highlight the skin under the eyes, chin and forehead and then use a foundation shade that matches her neck to help even her skin.

With Britney going from blonde to brown her brows need to also change, I used a warm brown eyebrow pencil to define them.

I picked a lighter peachy/pink blush for Britney's cheeks. Britney already has strong red colours in her skin so a peachy/pink would neutralise that. 

Finally for lipstick I blended the lip liner more and added a sheer pink lipstick! Done!  

Which celebrities makeup would you like to do or redo??

Finally Finished Foundation Series!



Flawless Foundation For Beginners!


Step One: Cleanse 
Pink Grapefruit Face Wash.
Make sure your make-up is going on fresh skin, this will make sure it goes on smoother and lasts longer!





Step Two: Tone
Simple facial toner.
A toner is just a liquid similar to water that rinses off any left over cleanser or dirt. Wipe it over the skin on a cotton pad!





Step Three: Moisturise 
Moisturise Simple Hydrating Light Moisturiser
Moisturise actually gives your foundation something to hold on so its very important!




Make sure you leave your skin settle for at least 5 minutes once you have completed these steps!


Step Four: Primer
Primer Nivea Daily Essentials Hydration Primer Normal/Comb
Not everyone needs a primer, but if you are going to use one, you apply it after your Moisturiser, not before your moisturiser and not instead of your moisturiser, after your moisturiser, Yep! :)



Step Five: Foundation
Foundation Loreal True Match W1
                 Bourjois 10 Hour Sleep Effect
I mixed up two foundations to get my prefect tone, texture and shade. It takes a lot of trial and error to find that out but when you do you wont forget it!


I use my F20 brush to apply it http://www.blankcanvascosmetics.com/products/hot-pink-and-black-f20-duo-set.html



You don't need a brush or sponge or any type of tool, feel free to use your finger tips, I like to pat in the foundation because it gives great coverage and looks great, I think its the heat from your fingers blends it so well!


And we're done!

Fishtail Braid Updo hair Tutorial

Fishtail Braid Updo hair Tutorial
How to Style :
  • Step 1 : Gathering your hair to the side and secure it with a thin rubber hair tie. Divide it into two sections.
  • Step 2 : Hold both sections in one hand, separated by your pointer finger, and use your other hand to grab a small piece from the outside of one section.
  • Step 3 & 4 : Repeat step 2 until you’ve just about reached the end and secure it with an elastic. It’s even better if it’s messy, so pull out some strands and roughen up the braid a bit.
  • Step 5 : If you want to turn your fishtail into an updo, start by rolling the braid inward and up towards the nape of your neck.
  • Step 6 : Secure the rolled bun with bobby pins. The looser and messier the bun, the better!

How To Make a Chignon Bun

How To Make a Chignon Bun
Steps :
1 : Gather all of your hair in one hand.
2 : Start twisting all of your hair in your hand around 1-2 fingers. Hold your starting point in your other hand as if it were a hair tie (if you have hair that is thick and slippery you may just want to put a hair tie in.
3 : Continue to wrap your twisted pony around your starting point until you reach the end of the pony, continually twisting your finger at the same time to keep the ponytail tight.
4 : Secure the end of your pony with a bobby pin, making sure that it goes as far in towards the center of the bun as possible.
5 : Add extra bobby pins to ensure that the bun will stay in place. I usually use about 3-4, if you have thicker hair or many layers, you may have to use more.
6 : Toussle your hair slightly to give it a 'messy, effortless' look and sprits it a few more times with some hairspray or styling product if needed.
