Avoiding Makeup Mistakes: Stepping on Landmines

October 30, 2023

It is said that makeup can make oneself more beautiful and give a better first impression! However, some girls put in a lot of effort in their makeup, but still get criticized at first sight. Why? Because they unintentionally step on these few landmines!!

Rigid and overly thick eyebrows

Level of criticism: ★★★★★

Want to make your face more three-dimensional? Eyebrow makeup plays an important role. However, the selection of eyebrow shape and color is particularly important. Especially for flat eyebrows that can elevate the overall look, be careful not to make them too thick or overly intense. Even for flat eyebrows, they shouldn't be too rigid and stiff, otherwise it will give off a fierce impression! Although it may seem fashionable to draw them that way usually, if you want to create a cute and innocent feeling of being protected, having a slight arch would be better!

Overly thick false eyelashes

Level of criticism: ★★★★☆

Just like eyeliner, eyelashes are a magic tool that can instantly make a person look more energetic! That's why girls love wearing false eyelashes. Isn't eyelash extension popular now? Many girls are crazy about it. However, it seems like they are performing a stage play in their daily lives, with thick and long eyelashes that fan out dramatically. How can it match with eyes that are naturally not that big?

Whether it's eyelash extensions or wearing false eyelashes, go for a natural style. If you like something slightly more noticeable, you can add more volume to the outer corners or the middle of the eyes. Personally, I recommend cluster false eyelashes, as they look very natural when worn. The length should not be too long, and the highest level of wearing false eyelashes or eyelash extensions is when people can't tell that you're wearing them!

Lack of healthy complexion

Level of criticism: ★★★★☆

Freshness does not mean lack of complexion. To create a good impression of a girl next door, a healthy complexion is absolutely essential! When applying makeup to all parts of the face, make sure to use light colors for the eyebrows, lips, and cheeks. However, doing so can make the makeup look lacking in focus, don't you think? It gives off a feeling of malnutrition and weak constitution! Adding more blush or using a more noticeable lip color can instantly make you radiate with charm!

Dry and lined lips

Level of criticism: ★★★★★

Matte lipsticks have been extremely popular in recent years. First, they have a velvety texture that is very comfortable. Second, they give a very feminine and tasteful makeup look. But do you know? Dry lips are the death of matte lipsticks. They not only expose lip lines, but also cause the lips to peel, making the makeup look extremely awkward!

My suggestion is to moisturize the lips with a highly moisturizing lip balm for at least 5 minutes before using a matte lipstick. Then gently press the lips with a tissue to remove the lip balm's shine. After that, apply the matte lipstick with a lip brush. This will allow the lipstick to adhere better to the skin of the lips and cover lip lines more easily. With the lip balm as a base, the lips will no longer be dry and peeling! The makeup look with matte lipstick will be even more beautiful!

Drooping corners of the mouth

Level of criticism: ★★★★

Girls with drooping corners of the mouth are at a disadvantage. They are prone to giving off a bad impression of being grumpy and having a bad temper. Therefore, it is necessary to greet people with a smiling face from time to time. However, smiling for a long time can also make the face stiff. If you want to get rid of this embarrassment, you can try extending the lipstick slightly outward to make the upper lip slightly thicker. This will create the effect of fuller lips and avoid giving off a mean impression. Another method is to use a coffee-colored eyebrow pencil to slightly draw an upward shading at the corners of the mouth, creating a fake upward curve, which is also a good method. In addition, chronic drooping of the corners of the mouth can cause nasolabial folds and sagging of the cheeks. It requires doing more exercises that stimulate the mouth and gently stretch it outwards for a long time in order to make the corners of the mouth look more lifted, firm, and full of vitality.
