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.
