Make Up for colds & allergiesSpring is beautiful, but the watery eyes, runny noses and sore throats that often come with spring colds and allergies are not. With these few simple makeup tips, we can look fabulous even if we don't feel it.1.Balance your complexion with Dream Tint. Try squeezing out a bit on the back of your hand and then brushing it onto the Blending Brush and using that to apply it your face. Try it and see what you think! 2.Address any redness, dark circles and puffiness around the eyes with Active Light. Use a tiny amount under eyes and on lids and and in the inner corner of the eye. Blend well with the Camouflage Brush in a criss-cross motion. 3.To achieve a healthy glow, apply In Touch Cream Blush to the apples of the cheeks with the Foundation Brush. 4.Next, a normal application of PurePressed Base or Amazing Base will cover any blotchiness. 5.With a Camouflage Brush, pat a little extra mineral foundation around your nose. This conceals redness and stays put through many tissues! 6.Hydration Spray will soothe and plump tired skin. Use it often throughout this application and the rest of your day. 7.If you have a lot of redness around the eyes line the lower lash line with White Pencil then blend it; then line the lower waterline (inner rim) as well. 8.The eyes often look dark and sunken when we're battling colds and allergies. Use light eyeshadow and a light hand to counter this. 9.Begin with a thin layer of Eye Gloss. It really helps eye shadow stay put when your eyes are watery. Use Grey Silkif you are using cool toned eye shadows or Champagne Silk if you are using warmer tones. Squeeze a tiny amount onto the back of your hand, pick it up with the Sculpting Brush and blend it into the lids and crease. Try using the Eye Gloss to line the inner third of the lash line with the Detail Brush to add more brightness to the eyes. 10.Before eye shadow, apply eyeliner. By applying the liner first, the eye shadow on top will soften the line and increase its staying power. Swipe the Detail Brush or Smudge Brush back and forth across the Pencil tip then apply to your upper lash line only. Tilt your head back and look down into the mirror. This really helps to get a tight line. You will know you are right in the lash line if your eyelashes are wiggling. 11.Next apply eye shadow. Press the lightest shade onto the whole lid blending into the crease and inner corner of the eye. Avoid dark shadow in the crease. Press the Eye Shader Brush into the medium shade. Then holding the handle of the brush parallel to your eye (across your face) lightly touch the color to the outer corner of your lid. You will barely need to blend (but make sure you do)! 12.Finally, use the Detail or Smudge Brush to apply the darkest shade of powder over the eyeliner. This really sets it. 13.Finish the look with Lip Fixation. That way, you will not wipe off your lip color each time you wipe your nose. Feel better?
