Make Up Games and Fair Skin


If you’re playing make up games, you’ve probably experimented with some serious make up choices over the years. But have you noticed that many of the make up items we try to wear on fair skin just don’t seem to be doing much to help, but perhaps more to hurt? Fair skin is a special animal because it tends to be lighter than the lightest make up items at times, and getting the wrong shade on a porcelain complexion can be glaringly obvious.

Perhaps the best way to find the right make up games for fair skin is to consult with the professionals who also just happen to have a case of make up at their disposal. The make ups can start with a color chart and selection. Go to the counter where you’ll be comfortable buying new make up items. Then you can have the make up specialist put on your make up for you. The look you create should be exactly what you want and need. Once you have the colors you need for your make up games selected, buy them up – you’ll be glad you did.

Princess Make Up Games


Halloween may be long gone, but that doesn’t mean we have to forsake all of the fun of the dress up season! Make up games are fun any time of the year and this year may just be the perfect time to pull out some princess make up games. January can be a tough month for girls who love the fun of the holidays but dread the long, cold winter days. So why not take a day off from waiting for spring and make a bit of your own sunshine?

Start with a make up kit and freshly washed skin. Then, create a look that is more than a bit over the top for anyone who might be living outside of a fairy tale. Put on your fake eyelashes and consider some sparkles and glitter just to be sure you have the right effect. Then, once you’re all pulled together you can find your very best princess outfit to wear as well. After all, what’s the fun of a princess make up game if you’re not going to be dressed like a royal as well?

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.
