How to find your face shape? If your forehead is slightly broader than your jawline, then you’re an oval. Even an ideal oval face is drab and uninteresting without makeup. But the wrong kind of makeup is actually worse than none at all. Don’t make your eyebrows up too thin, square or too heavy and don’t start your brows too far back from your nose. Keep a soft natural curve to your brow-line, and use a chisel sharp eyebrow pencil to affect these fine brow hair stroke lines. Remember to apply your mascara with upward outward strokes. Don’t make up your lips too heavy, too dark or with this bee stung effect. Try making them up with a natural soft curve. Remember, your upper and lower lips should be about the same fullness. These results are best achieved with a lip brush. Remember lip rouge and cheek rouge, properly applied works wonders. Don’t apply rouge in a dab or a circle, and don’t apply too close to your nose. Apply it in the center of your cheek and blend it up to under the eyes, over cheekbones and out toward your temple. Visit : Published in association with - Northeast Historic Film, John J.
