Good info to know. How eye makeup should be used and applied is the most important thing to me. :)

Can you please tell me some natural skin glowing tips? Because, I dont like to go with chemicals.

Putting a little concealer in the outer corner of your eyes really brightens up your whole face! Extending it just that much makes such a difference.

by LittleBunny Thursday, March 28, 2013 at 05:52PM Report as inappropriate

the best tips were probably about the often-missed spots for concealer, thanks!

Great tips. Thanks!

Wouldnt foundation cover the contouring? Hmmm.

by PrettyCheap Friday, March 22, 2013 at 08:49PM Report as inappropriate

I love reading tips from pros. I've never heard of putting concealer on the outer corner of the eyes though... Maybe they meant inner corner where there are normally shadows.

I definitely need to invest in a concealer brush!

by Amanda16 Tuesday, March 19, 2013 at 01:30AM Report as inappropriate

Awesome tips. I will think about getting a new brush for foundation and concealer.

by yestfl Monday, March 18, 2013 at 08:00PM Report as inappropriate

Some of my favorite articles are the ones with tips from professional makeup artists. I've been experimenting with contouring and am going to try it under my foundation and see how that works. I knew to apply concealer to the sides of my nose, but this is the first time I've heard to apply it to the outside corners of eyes and mouth. I'll definitely be trying that as well.

excellent article. I particularly like the idea of doing contouring before foundation. Thank you!

by venenumletalis Monday, March 18, 2013 at 02:28PM Report as inappropriate

I get streak marks using brushes for concealer and foundation that I don't get when I blend with my fingers. The warmth of my fingertips makes it blend more smoothly.

by veryvanilla Monday, March 18, 2013 at 12:26PM Report as inappropriate

Thank you, these are definitely some tricks I will be using.

by Monique3 Monday, March 18, 2013 at 10:43AM Report as inappropriate

I especially like the tip about "highlighting" lashes with different colors such as black and brown. Very helpful overall!

I really enjoyed this article, and will certainly be taking a lot of the tips to heart! Thanks!
