Massage Foundation Primer all over face before foundation, to ensure a
long lasting and flawless finish. During
the warm summer months, Vicki suggests placing Foundation Primer in
the refrigerator. The coolness is extra refreshing and helps reduce
puffiness.
For a very sheer and natural finish always apply Oil-Free Foundation
with a damp sponge in a downward and outward direction.
Eye Enhancing Techniques
To accentuate and heighten the colour of the eyes, choose shades that
offer a contrast so the eye colour will stand out
When applying Eye Colour, remember that light shades emphasize and make
an area appear larger. Dark shades diminish and make an area appear
smaller.
For dry or mature eyelids, avoid shimmer colour all over the lid. Apply
a matte Eye Colour all over with a shimmer Eye Colour only in the
center of the eyelid and to highlight the brow bone.
Completely lining the eye with a dark colour encloses it and makes it
appear smaller and more deep-set
To give the appearance of thicker lashes and to enhance eye color, dot
between the root of the top lashes with Black Extreme eye pencil.
To obtain fuller lashes, wiggle the Mascara wand at the root of the
lashes and work up and out. For longer lashes tilt wand down and
lightly apply to full length of lash.
Try the "jewel crown effect" - apply shimmers and matte colours
together. Apply shimmer to the eyes and matte colour to the lips or
switch to matte eyes and shimmery lips.
Colour
"Texture on Texture"- to always achieve a successful Cheek Colour or
eye shadow application, prepare the cheeks and eyelids with Translucent
Powder. This will provide a compatible texture for an even application.
For Lip Colour that stays in place and lasts forever, press a tissue
against the lips and powder lightly with puff or brush. This "fixes"
the Lip Colour and prevents running and feathering. For more coverage
or a more moist finish apply a little more lip colour to the center of
the lips after fixing them with powder.
Tips and Tricks
Always apply makeup in direct or even-sided light. NEVER one-sided
light. Look around for the best light in your house.
Apply creams with creams FIRST--THEN powder with powders. Never put
creams over powders.
Blow excess powder off inside-disc after every brush use.
Wash brushes (with any hand soap) once a week.
