Feliz #Sabado mis queridas #Mangogirls hoy les traemos un #Mtips para perfilar los pomulos a la hora de maquillarnos y crear un efecto estilizado en nuestra cara 😍🤗 traza una línea recta con bronce desde la oreja hasta la mitad de la mejilla, asegúrate que sea recta, si la realizas curva lograras el efecto contrario. Difumina hacia arriba muy bien. Ilumina en la parte más alta de los pómulos con una suave línea y listo 🌷🌸 . . . #Mty #nl #mtynl #mexico #mtymx #fashion #salon #hairstyle #haircut #beauty #hair #brazilianhair #salonesdebelleza #enmexico #enmonterrey #cortedecabello #cool #hidratacioncapilar #curly #moroccanoil #monterrey #jj #instagramers #instamood #colinasdesanjeronimo #picoftheday #balayagehair (en Monterrey, Nuevo Leon Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQWE3UhWD-/?igshid=iemb0r5dxy4v

Just wondering- whats your general face care routine? Like how often do you wash it, what do you wear etc

I only wash it once a day, in the evening before bed. I use regular facewash about 5 days a week and a light exfoliating wash 2 days a week. 

I wash, then use the toner I posted earlier, and then moisturise. In the mornings, I just rinse my face with water and then I mix BB cream with an Olay day cream (the BB cream is SPF 40 and the Olay cream is SPF 15) and put it on.

I have fairly good skin so I dont like to use straight BB cream, hence why I mix mine with a moisturising light cream before

Just incase anyone is struggling with breakouts, I found this recipe for a home-made toner which really helps clear your skin up and control breakouts. Probably wont work for really bad acne, but if you just get quite a lot of small spots or if you get really oily it helps:

Mix:

1 parts apple cider vinegar to 2 parts green tea. Add several drops of tea tree oil and half a teaspoon of coconut oil. 

I've been using this for about half a year now and I swear my skin is so much better I never get breakouts anymore except the odd spot. Apple cider vinegar helps the pH of your skin (apparently?) and contains a special form of acid used in acne and breakout moisturisers/toners/face washes. Plus its 100% natural so you know you're not putting any weird toxic chemicals on your skin :)

I have slightly darker than light brown skin, what color lipstick would work for me?

Lipsticks with purplish tints, or just purple lipsticks tend to look really nice on darker skin. 

Dark reds and bright reds look good. Raspberry pink and coral pink colours work really well as well, as do brown or nude brown colours. 

Heres some good examples:

Those shades work really well. Also purples and bright pinkish purples, which arent really shown here very well

What makeup products do you use every day?

Eyeshadow- I have an Estee Lauder brown eyeshadow quad which I really like, and then I also use one of the eyeshadows from a MUA eyeshadow palette

BB cream= previously used L’oreal, will now start using Missha BB Cream as apparently Korean BB creams are amazing

Mascara- Clinique ‘Naturally Glossy’ is amazing and my all time favourite mascara as it stays on even when I go to the gym/exercise, it doesnt clump at all and its pretty natural looking

Blush- Lancome blush

Lipstick- I usually use Borjouis paris as I cant afford Mac lipsticks :(

hey I just wanted to inform you that not everything from lush is natural cosmetics :) they mostly are natural but not everything. but you can use whatever you want obviously :D have a nice day/evening

Oh yeah sorry forgot to mention that! I meant most their products dont contain any harmful/bad ingredients! Thank you for correcting me :)

how do you keep from bottom eyeliner from smudging i mean i always line my lower eyelids with "smudgeproof" pencil but it smudges after a few hours ugh

Have you tried an eyeshadow primer? I know its for eyeshadow but I always use it on my lower lashline as well! Also, I suggest finding a different pencil and looking up some reviews on the internet, as there are bound to be long-lasting eyeliners. Investing in an expensive good eyeliner might be worthwhile if you wear it everyday

I also find putting concealer under the place where you’re going to put the eyeliner helps

(sorry I dont really know, I actually use a brown lipliner as a bottom lash eyeliner and that doesnt really smudge!)

I SUCK WITH MAKEUP okay - liquid/neat/winged eyeliner, how?? - best cheap concealer? - how to apply liquid foundation? - which is better: body shop or lush?

For winged eyeliner, I also suck at drawing it on liquid/pencil, so what I do is I first use one of those eyeliner brushes (with a really sharp tip) to do a wing (I just draw straight then flick) with gel/pencil eyeliner and then draw over the wing with a pen! :) You can also use tape to make a stencil for your eyeliner. But seriously, those eyeliner brushes (heres an example) are a lifesaver. Even when I put liquid eyeliner on, I then use to brush to blend it in and make it look more natural

Personally I prefer Lush, their products are slightly cheaper, smell amazing and are all natural. For makeup I would go Bodyshop though as Lush makeup doesnt tend to last great.

Liquid foundation, I use a big stippling brush as this blends it into your skin really well and ensures even coverage! It doesnt have to be an expensive stippling brush, elf do really good stippling brushes and they are only a few dollars :) also, make sure you put primer on underneath your foundation as this will prevent it creasing or coming off during the day
