Make Up Games and Cheap Make Up Kits


If you love make up games, and who doesn’t, this is the time of year to get serious about finding some new colors and patterns to try. There are tons of cheap make up kits out at the stores now and if you run out after Christmas to try and score some serious deals, you’ll have no problem at all finding make up kits for fifty or even sixty or more off the original price. When you stop to consider that these make up games were super cheap to begin with, the idea of getting fifty eye shadows or twenty lipsticks for $10 is enough to make you swoon a bit.

Of course, we have to realize that the cheap make up kits aren’t the highest quality products out there, but if you’re just playing around with colors and trying to find the best bargains to experiment with – this is most certainly the best time for some serious make up games to start! Grab a mega make up kit for less than $20. That’s less than most of us would normally pay for a good powder. Then, call over a few friends and get started on trying out some new looks – if you hate it, simple wash it off and try again!

Make Up Games and Purple


In an interesting twist, one of the big colors this holiday season is purple. The dark purple eye shadows and eyeliners are popular, and purple, surprisingly, looks good on just about everyone. The dark purple eyeliner you might use in the make up games is a great way to bring out the bright blue of someone’s eyes or set off the dark green iris. Brown eyes especially look great when they are outlined with a purple eyeliner pencil. Combine the pencil with some purple eye shadow and you’ll have a beautiful smoky eye that nobody can beat.

It might be a bit much to wear a purple lipstick or even consider purple blush, but the right bit of purple eye shadow can make the holidays a bit more dramatic and magical while also making your make up games new and exciting as well. Head out to the mall to find some new make up games – you’ll see plenty of the new purple eye shadows and you’ll find other great make up items to add to your collection. Consider all of your new make up games the best present you can give yourself this holiday season!

Make Up Games for Formal Events


The holiday season is here and so are the many opportunities for formal events. To enjoy a formal event properly, you’ll need to be able to throw on a beautiful face of make up to complement your cocktail and evening gowns. Of course, knowing the difference between daytime and nighttime make up is the first big step to your success, of course, and make up games are the perfect way to practice the look.

The holidays are great for another reason as well – make up is on sale! Take yourself to the drug store and buy one of the heavily discounted collections of eye shadows and make up items. These will be your testing colors and patterns while you try out your make up games.

Find different combinations of colors and practice your blending techniques. You’ll be able to see right away if your make up colors are right or wrong. If you don’t like the look you’ve created, simply remove the make up using a cold cream and start over again. Once you’ve mastered the balance of colors and style, you can invest in some beautiful sparkling make up to make the holidays even more beautiful.

Make Up Games and Face Washing


It’s funny how much we think about putting on make up games, but we rarely think much about taking that make up off again. Make up games aren’t designed to be on for very long. You should wash your face as soon as possible every day. Make up on your skin can have some side effects you’re not going to enjoy. The most obvious problem is that make up that is less than fresh looks a bit less than fresh. Make up runs and smears over time. The powder and foundation settle into lines on the face and make you look older than you are.

Wash your face and free yourself of the cakes of make up. Instead you can run around the house in a fresh face a bit of tinted lip gloss. If someone comes over, a swipe of mascara is all you need to liven yourself up again without taking thirty minutes to paint on a new face. Being able to show your real face to the world is just as confidence-building as showing up with a full face of top-named cosmetics. It’s all about how you play your own make up games and how comfortable you are in your own skin.

Make Up Games and Experiments


There are some experiments that are hard to avoid, and when the urge strikes you to start getting a bit creative with your make up games, why not go ahead and indulge yourself? Make up games should be fun, but you’re young and it’s the perfect opportunity to try out different make up colors and patterns. Want to wear wild eye shadow? Give it a try! Want to try out something new and interesting with your lips? Why not! The beautiful thing about all of your different make up experiments is that you’ll turn out looking beautiful each time and then you’ll be able to find the tricks you’d enjoy using at school or work.

You can read countless books on make up and design, but until you actually start practicing with the make up items and learning how to use them to their best effects, it’s hard to know what really works and what doesn’t. Make up games require experimentation, and you should be experimenting when you play them. Buy bold colors and try new things as they come out on the market. This can be an expensive hobby, but you work with a friend who loves make up games, too, you should be able to keep the costs reasonable and enjoy just about every new item that comes along.

Make Up Games for the Holidays


The holidays are an excellent time to enjoy some make up games. Make up games are a perfect way to play around with cosmetics and other make up items to find the best look for you as the times change. Times change and make up styles change with them. If you’re going to try a new look, why not give it a try around the holidays? Not only that, but holiday make up tends to be a bit more creative and fun than the make up games you might play during the regular work day or school year.

The holidays usually include a bit of glitter and glam, and that’s just fun to do with the right make up items. Plan for the holidays by checking out the latest make up items in the drug stores or talk to the specialists at a cosmetic counter. You’ll find yourself enjoying beautiful new looks and fun make up items without needing to commit to the long term – you’re just free to enjoy what you want to wear with your make up games – no problems at all.

Make Up Games and Confidence


Isn’t it funny how much confidence we can get from make up games? Simply apply a bit of mascara and blush and suddenly you feel more pulled together and ready to take on the world. Make up games tend to have this effect on us since they make us more pulled together and showcase our assets while downplaying any faults. You’re able to hide the things that bother you and then bring out your best features using just a few clever strokes of the brush or wand.

Make up games make it possible to develop a smooth, clear complexion in just a few minutes per day. Suddenly you have dark eyelashes that make your eyes pop right out of your face. Big bright eyes help to downplay anything we might not like on your face. Concealer and highlighter help you play hide and seek with great and not so great areas on your face – get rid of blemishes with make up games just as easily as you can make yourself look young and fresh. Make up games are a great way to boost your confidence on a daily basis and give yourself a nice way to finish off a look as well.

Make Up Games and Highlighter


One of the least appreciated make up games is using highlighter to really make your facial features pop. Generally speaking, highlighter is usually used by older women, but it certainly doesn’t have to just be a make up game enjoyed by women of a certain age. The highlighter has plenty it can do for all of us, and I don’t mean hair highlights . Highlighter helps you see the brilliance of your features and it helps those special features stand out to others as well.

Using highlighter is simple. The highlighter is a bit of sparkly concealer. The lighter color brings lightness and freshness to your features. If you dab a bit of highlighter on the inside of your eyes and just a bit along your eyes, you’ll see your eyes stand out a bit from your face dramatically. You can also use the highlighter near the tops of your eyelids to showcase the orbital bone and even on top of your cheekbones to make those bones stand out as well. Everywhere you use highlighter, you’ll be introducing a bit of lightness to your face making you appear youthful and glowing, even if you’re nothing f the sort.

Make Up Games Worth It?

Sometimes I wonder if make up games are really worth it. It’s hard to get motivated to put on a full face in the morning, especially if I’m short on sleep as I am most mornings. Who wants to put on mascara when you feel like rubbing your eyes every few minutes to help you finish waking up? But even when you’re tired there are some minimal steps you can take to be sure that you’re putting your best face forward.

Every girl should be using a moisturizer after washing your face in the morning. A quick trick is to use a tinted moisturizer instead of the regular one you might use. One that has a bit of color helps to even out your skin tone without feeling heavy like make up would. Once you have your tinted moisturizer in place, you just need a bit of lip gloss and you’re ready to hit the town. If you can keep your hands away from your eyes, you might opt for a bit of mascara as well, just to make those tired eyes really pop.

Make Up Games and Blemishes


I hate blemishes and I was surprised to learn the other day that I’ve been covering up the red spots all wrong when they appear on my face. Right now I’m using concealer, but after reading some new advice by Bobbi Brown, I’m switching over to a real method of concealing – a heavy base is the right answer.

When you use concealer to cover up a blemish, you’re putting on a spot several shades lighter than your usual skin tone. Using a foundation that is exactly the same shade as your skin tone means you’re able to truly blend the spot in with the rest of your face, especially if you use a light foundation on the rest of your face so that the transition between the light and the heavy foundation is a smooth one.

Make Up Games and Blemishes


Many of us use concealer to cover up blemishes, but I’ve recently learned that it’s not the best way. Concealer is great for the dark circles under your eyes, but if you’re looking to reduce the appearance of red spots from acne, you don’t want to use concealer. It’s too light and you’ll be creating a bright white spot that draws the eye like a signpost. Instead of concealer, buy a stick of heavy foundation or a tube of very creamy foundation that isn’t as sheer as what you’d normally use on your face.

The foundation should match your skin exactly for these make up games, and to cover the blemish, you’ll simply dab a dot directly on top of the redness. Once your make up games have a dot of base, use one finger to dot, dot, dot at the spot to help it blend in with the surrounding foundation and skin. By using the exact skin tone of your face, the foundation covering the spot will easily blend in, making your make up games truly flawless.

Make Up Games and Aging


It’s funny really that the girls who enjoy wearing make up are the ones who actually need it the least. Make up games aren’t anything new, but the young and beautiful girls are the ones who are often wearing the most make up, while those of us who are aging and starting to show some lines and wrinkles aren’t doing enough with our make up games to hid the more obvious signs of aging. More often than not, I’ve walked out of my house without any make up on at all, and I used to be obsessed with getting my full face of make up games on before the day really started.

Make up games aren’t just for teenagers and young adults. As women age, make up games are a great way to help hide features of our faces that aren’t as attractive and bring attention to the areas where we really shine. Adding a bit of blush to make us look more alive and the a bit of powder to decrease shine is almost as impressive as a quick swipe of mascara. It takes five minutes to put on a new face in the mornings – it’s simply a habit I’m going to need to work on.

Make Up Games or Lack Thereof


I think I’ve decided to stop playing make up games for a while. I haven’t been very good about putting on a new face of make up every day and now that it’s summer, it’s even harder to come up with a reason to get fully dressed every day. It seems like the first thing I do every morning is walk outside and start sweating anyhow – why would I put on a bunch of make up so that I can just sweat it all off again? It seems like a true waste to me, at least.

Of course, there is a great reason to play make up games. I want to look great, and it’s hard to look your best when you have bags under your eyes and your skin is splotchy and not shining with youth and health. In fact, this summer my skin has been entirely too shiny, but with oils, not youth. In the last month or so of summer, I’m looking forward to coming up with a plan for make up games in the fall. If I make the plan now and start to practice, I’ll be able to enjoy looking great once the weather cools off at least.

Make Up Games and Lip Gloss


In the summer months, I’m a firm believer that all we need is a bit of lip gloss. The sun and the fresh air bring a bit of color to your face and your eyes sparkle because they are well rested and there are so many fun things to do over the summer months. So if you don’t need color and your eyes are already popping, all you really need is a bit of lip gloss to make your lips soft and shiny, while also protecting them from drying out from all of that sun.

There is another benefit to not playing any make up games other than lip gloss application during the summer months – you sweat a lot. In my part of the country, we sweat when we walk outside to get the paper. We sweat walking in a parking lot. We sweat letting the dog out the backdoor. I’d rather not be sweating off my make up every time I look outside, so I advise us all to simply not wear it at all – take back the make up games and opt for lip gloss!

Make Up Games and Eye Makeup


Recently I’ve noticed that I’m struggling with eye make up. I can’t seem to find the right colors or the right technique to make my eyes appear as big and luminous as they used to. Of coruse a lot of this is to be blamed on my age, not make up games, but still – I’d like to think that if I found the right technique for my thirties, I can look almost as good as I did in my twenties. For this reason, I’m going to have to seek out more make up games so that I can learn the necessary techniques.

Mascara was never the problem – I know how to lengthen and extend eyelashes that way. What I need to figure out is the best way to apply eye shadow and perhaps a liner to create a daytime look that is natural while also striking. To make it all just a bit more complicated, I want all the awesome new looks of my make up games to be visible behind my funky eye glasses. It’s a tall order, but I’m willing to bet that there are definitely make up games out there that can make it happen for me.

Make Up Games and Base


Base is the foundation for all the rest of your make up games. When you put on your make up in the morning, you should start with a clean face and a bit of lotion. Once the lotion has absorbed, use a light coating of base to even out your skin tone. You can do this with a spray base and a sponge. Or use a damp sponge and a bit of cream base. Dot a few spots on your face and then blend it with the sponge. Use your fingers as little as possible for this stage – the damp sponge will help you get your base level even and light – fingers aren’t as good at doing that.

Outside of how you apply your base, you need to spend some time thinking about what color your base will be. Your base should be the same as your skin tone. If you tan a bit during the summer month, you might need to have a different color base for those months. All told, you might have two different bases, and sadly the best way to decide is a bit of trial and error. If you can test the products, test them on your cheek to find the base that appears to disappear. That will be the right color for you.

Make Up Games and a Fresh Complexion


Part of looking healthy with your make up games is allowing your own fresh complexion to come through your make up. There is a big difference between stage make up and make up games for every day, and it’s important to understand the distinction. When you’re wearing stage make up, you’re designing a look that can be scene from the back of the room. This means you really cake on the make up and over exaggerate things like eye make up and blush so that everyone can see what you’re wearing.

If you’re wearing make up games for every day, you don’t need to pile it on. You should be only enhancing your natural features with make up games, not covering them up. To do this, you start with a light foundation. Be sure that the foundation is water based and then add a bit of blush and some eye make up as well. A few swipes of mascara is all you need after that. Set the whole look with a light dusting of powder – perhaps one with a light amount of shimmer – and then your make up games are complete!

Make Up Games and Eye Shadow


One of the trickiest elements in my make up games these days is my eye shadow. I’m struggling with my eye shadow and trying very hard to remember the best ways to apply it, but not always finding success. I’ve discovered that the eye shadow methods I used when I was growing up and an a teenager aren’t working as well now. My eyes have changed just a tad as I grow older, and I know they will continue to change even more.

The challenge for me, and those like me, is adapting my make up to my changing face. Nobody’s face stays the same as they age, so it’s unreasonable to think that the make up games you’ve been playing for years are going to continue the same way over time. Already I’ve spotted a few wrinkles around my mouth and my lips don’t seem to be as red as they were just a few years ago. My skin looks a bit tired and not as refreshed, and now that my eyelids have changed shape just a bit, my make up games are going to have to change as well.

Sleeping with Make Up Games


It’s going to happen to you someday. You’re going to wake up in the morning, usually after a big evening of dancing and partying, and discover that you’re still wearing your make up. When you play make up games, you should always make it a point to remove the make up right away, and to always avoid sleeping in your make up. It happens, of course, that girls forget, but every time you forget to wash away your make up games, you’re running the risk of some pretty significant break outs.

Make up adds a layer to your skin over your pores. When you leave it one all night long, especially while you’re sleeping, your body sweats and sends oils and waste out through your pores. This oil is essentially trapped under your make up since you’ve left it on, and the oils can cause blemishes and break outs. Make it a point to always wash your face before bedtime every night, even if you’re getting in early. If you just can’t remember to do so, at least use hypoallergenic products that will let you skin breathe a bit better.

Make Up Games and Glasses


I’ve had the hardest time getting into make up games because I also like to wear my glasses on a regular basis. My glasses are great for my early mornings, and often my days become so rushed and frantic, it’s really just not worth it to worry about my contacts. I leave the glasses on and because I’m wearing glasses, I don’t do much wit hmake up games. In fact, I don’t usually play any make up games at all in the mornings. I just go about my day without any make up at all.

I don’t think I look very good without make up in the mornings, but even that isn’t enough to make me feel motivated to put any make up on. What I really need is a new pair of glasses. If I had super cute new trendy glasses, I’d be able to find the sort of glasses that really need me to pull myself together and start dressing up. Once I feel like I’m looking great, I’ll be that much more motivated to work on some make up games in the mornings as well.

Make Up Games and Great Deals


I recently discovered that you can get really great deals on your make up games. If you’re like me, you’ve been buying make up games for the full price whenever you needed something new to put on or you wanted to try a new look. Make up can be expensive, especially if you’re buying the decent brands, so I would usually only buy a single product or maybe two at a time to supplement my collection. I recently realized though, through couponing, that you can get a great deal on make up.

Every week now as I go through the coupons that come in the mail, I find coupons for make up games. These aren’t flimsy coupons, either – they are usually up to two or even three dollars off the price of the make up. If you wait until the make up items go on sale at your local drug store and then use the coupons, you can save up to half of the value of the make up item as you buy them. That’s a huge savings if you’re talking about $8 for a lipstick or $12 for a blush. Think of how much more you can buy with the savings.

Make Up Games and Money


Make up games are expensive. New make up, even the relatively inexpensive kind at the local drug store, can really add up making it hard to get the items you need when you do actually need them. Fortunately there’s a solution to the high costs of make up – coupons. There are huge numbers of coupons available for new make up games at a fraction of the price, especially if you’re able to stack the manufacturer’s coupon on the store discount as well.

For example, L’oreal make up games had at least three coupons in the paper this week. One was for $2 off any cosmetic item. The others were for mascara and a facial product. Let’s pretend now that your local drug store is going to run a special on L’oreal make up games. The mascara you’ve been needing might normally be $8. With the sale it will be down to about $6. Then, add your $2 off coupon and you’ll be looking at a total price of $4 – a great 50 percent savings on make up games!

Make up Games and Beating Acne


Acne is a fierce rival. The red bumps and dots like to hang out on your face, especially if you’re a a teenager and working with some new hormone levels. If you’re dealing with acne, the right make up games can help, but it has even more to do with a good cleansing routine than anything else. Start your make up games with a good face washing at the beginning of the day. Wash your face with warm water and be sure your fingers aren’t dragging over the skin – they should slide on a layer of bubbles instead.

Then, rinse off the facial cleanser (never soap, mind you) and you pat your skin dry. Skip any exfoliation since that can irritate skin even more and then use your finger tips to apply a moisturizer while you skin is still dewy, or damp. Once it’s completely dry, consider using a gel to help dry out the acne on your face. It can take a few weeks to really make a difference in the acne on your face since your skin has to get used to the new products. But so long as you’re washing your face well in the morning and evening, you’ll be on your way!

Make Up Games and Beauty


It’s amazing how much you can do with make up games to help boost your beauty factor. Make up games give you the skills you need to apply your own make up every day, and when you’re playing make up games for a few minutes every day, you’ll be surprised at how well you can work a certain look out of eye shadow and mascara. To do so, you’ll simply need to practice, and what better way to practice with make up than through make up games?

To practice some skills, simply sit down in the front of the mirror with your applicator and eye shadows or make up games in front of you. Work on a particular style by trying it out and then using eye remover to take it off again. You can even do one eye in a particular way before trying out a different style on your other eye. You probably don’t want to leave the house with different make up games on either eye, but it will give you a chance to look around and see which look you like better for both eyes, next time you play make up games.

Make Up Games and Breakouts


I hate break outs, yet I’ve been dealing with them for a while. The breakouts seem to be occurring around the hairline more than anything else, which makes me wonder if I’m sweating during the night or just releasing th normal oils in my hair during the day that is somehow causing the break outs? I’ve started a new make up regime to just cover the spots, but sometimes it can be hard to let the make up games cover up the spots. You’d rather just throw on some clothing and head into school without dramatic make up games.

Of course, make up games don’t have to be simple. When you have breakouts, they are often more noticeable to you than they are to others, or they are until you start picking at a breakout. When you pick at them, they grow increasingly red until everyone can see a big red mark on your face. Don’t pick at break outs and just us ea dab a concealer as part of your make up games to help hide that part of your look so that you can feature the parts of your face that actually look great.

Make Up Games for the Weekend


The weekend is the best time for playing make up games. When you play make up games on the weekend, you’re able to put on a great face for the fun you’ll be having once you settle in to your own time. To really enjoy make up games, you have to have extra time. If you’re hoping to have time to fiddle with your make up before work one morning, you’re most likely out of luck. Your best shot at really enjoying make up games comes from the time you have on the days off.

Why not take one of the day over the weekend and really enjoy makeover games – starting first with make up games. Take a shower and pull your hair back. Do your make up games on clean, fresh skin and take your time. Don’t do what you’ve always done. Try something new! Use new colors or a new pattern. Try new make up items you might have or put on some fake nails just to see what would happen. How do you look? If you love the look you’ve created, you can recreate it Monday morning. If not, you can just wash it off and start again.

Make Up Games and Concealer


One of the most overused and under appreciated cosmetic, concealer is a way of hiding imperfections. Of course, if you’re going to use concealer, you’ll always want to be careful to use it correctly. After all, concealer can have a few extra tricks of the trade.

Buy One Shade Lighter
When you’re buying concealer, you should always buy concealer one shade lighter than your skin tone. The best way to check is to find a concealer that blends in easily without making a bright spot on the back of your hands or under your eyes. Otherwise you end up with the effect of a giant raccoon eyes – only in reverse.

A Dot Does a Lot
When you’re using concealer, you should only use a dot or two at a time. Don’t swipe it under your eyes. This will likely have the effect of white lines under your eyes. Use a few dots under the eyes and a small dot over the spots you’re trying to cover. Blend it in well and you’ll be set.

The Real Benefit of Make Up Games


I used to wear make up a lot with make up games. The make up I wore wasn’t heavy or overwhelming, it was more about looking good for myself and feeling good about myself than anything else. Then I stopped wearing it because I was spending so much time outside and it simply faded from habit. I’ve tried to restart many times over, but it’s very hard to do. I can’t get myself motivated to look good for me, and I’m reasonably sure this is about to change.

I’m remembering slowly the real benefit of make up games. I’m much more interested in finding ways to make myself look and feel better than I am in finding ways to simplify my days. I want to do fun things and I want to look good doing them. I bought new make up for some make up games last night and now it’s time to really start putting stock back into my appearance. Maybe I’ll start seeing real benefits of make up games again.

Make Up Games with New Make Up


Yesterday I bought new make up. I’ve wanted some new make up for awhile, and I’ll admit the make up I’m replacing isn’t even heavily used, much less worn out. I just finally decided it was time to quit messing around and start playing some serious make up games.

When I get home tonight, I’ll likely take my new purchase into the bathroom and start some serious new make up games. There’s just something special about playing make up games with new make up – it’s like a freshness and inspiration comes over you and you’re able to enjoy it that much more.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to focus enough on me and my appearance to start wearing my make up every day, but I hope I will. If I can master a five-minute face, it will be very easy to simply throw on some make up and get out the door looking far better than I would if I just left looking the way I am now.

Make Up Games and Lipstick


Lipstick has come and gone in popularity over the years. Just a generation ago, lipstick was the most commonly cited make up item. Lips were bright red and lovely with clear, bright eyes. Today we do our lips in a more natural shade most of the time, and finding a lipstick that works with your skin tone and make up choices is more complicated than ever. There are simply so many choices:

Lipsticks – The traditional lipstick is still available and there are more colors than ever. When you buy a lipstick, you can get the basics, or you can upgrade to a lipstick that stays in place or one that does extra duty moisturizing your lips.

Lip Glosses – The cousin of lipstick, lip glosses are shiny and bright. They are youthful and fun to wear since they aren’t as bright. They have a more natural appeal than the darker, thicker lip glosses, but aren’t always appropriate if you’re pulling together an evening look.

Combination Lip Wear – Finally, some make up games aren’t complete without a combination of lipstick and gloss. The lipstick goes on first and then a special gloss goes on over the lipstick. The combined effect is one of bright, shiny lips that are lovely and absolutely kissable.

Make Up Games and Your Eyes

Your eyes are the most sensitive part of your body. Not only do you see through your eyes, but they are also the most expressive parts of the body. You can send messages and express any number of emotion through your eyes. It’s for this reason that we work so hard to develop beautiful eyes when we play make up games.

When you start to work with your eyes during make up games, you’ll always want to take special care of the delicate skin around the surface of the eye. Use a special eye moisturizer or serum to protect the skin before you start the make up games. Then, once you begin to apply the make up, use gentle touches. Light, bright colors and highlighter is the best way to make your eyes pop.

A dab of eyeliner along the lashes over your eyes will make your eyes stand out even more. Finally, be sure to clean up your eyebrows. Having trim eyebrows will allow your eye area to be open and more dramatic for beautiful eyes.

Professional Make Up Games


It’s fun to watch professional make up games on shows and movies, but in real life, most of us are stuck with the make up games we can play ourselves. This doesn’t always have to be the case, however. There are opportunities you can take advantage of if you’d like to try out some professional make up games. Since there is a cost involved, you’ll want to be sure you’re using this new face for something important – a dance, a picture session or maybe even your wedding.

Make up games by professionals can be had at virtually any make up counter. These ladies are trained in their own products and they can wield a brush very well indeed. You’ll either pay for the make up games or you’ll be expected to buy products, so be sure you know which one ahead of time. You can also go to a cosmetology school and ask for a face of make up. The students in the salon are studying and practicing to be in a salon, so you’ll be getting a great deal for the makeover at least.

Make Up Games and Dry Skin


If you have dry skin, you’ll need to take special care with your make up games. Dry skin can be harder to deal with than oily skin at times, especially if you have a skin type that is both dry and sensitive. The key for all of your make up games is to avoid make up products that will be more drying for your skin. This includes quite a few powders and anything that advertises cutting the oil from your skin. After all, you don’t have a lot of oil to spare.

Dry skin naturally comes with age, so even if you’re not of mature age, you can get some serious hydration benefits by using skin care products that are designed for mature skin. These will often have rich moisture that will help you skin stay dewy and soft. An added side benefit of these sorts of make up games is that using products for mature skin can give you a nice intervention against aging since many of the products are designed to stop and reverse aging signs. If the advertisements are right, you might even be able to keep yourself from aging forever.

The Best Things about Make Up Games


Make up games are great for any number of reasons, and the best of which is just because they are so fun. Fun aside, here are a few other things to think about next time you’re trying out the newest bronzer or lip gloss.

Make up games let us explore our own face. When you know your face, you know a lot about yourself. Looking at yourself in the mirror for longer periods of time isn’t a matter of conceit, it’s more about understanding who you are and how you got to be there. It’s a great thing.

Make up games give you practice. It’s a frantic world out there and getting a quick face of make up can be a challenge. When you have the time to practice your make up games, you’re able to get your face on faster when it matters most.

Make up games let you find the best look for you. When you’re trying new things, you’re going to find the ones that make the most sense, and that’s definitely a huge advantage.
