Make-up ideas for teens


My Enhanced Beauty Tips for Teenage girls new to make-up or self-acclaimed experienced:

1. Make sure you start by taking care of your skin, cleanse and moisturize daily. I believe it is very important that you cleanse your face at night and wash away all that daily dirt and crime!!

2. If using foundation, make sure you go for natural foundation. I recommend tinted moisturizers for teenagers, if you have discoloration you want to hide you can use some spot concealers. But no cakey foundation all over your face, it is not necessary. I am 27 and I don't even use all that foundation on my face.

3. Instead of foundation, you can give yourself a glow by just using blush and bronzers. Just a little, not heavy because we don't want you looking like a clown!!

4. Save the drama and funky colors for the eyes. I heart eyeshadow, any kind, so don't be afraid. You can use dark colors, light colors, glitter or just shimmer.

5. Finally the lips, I personally prefer, lip gloss or tinted lip balm for teenagers. But if you want to try lipstick for special occasion, I would say use a moisturizing shine lipstick in a fun flirty color, or nude shade. Save the red and burgundy for the past generation. I love bonnebell(www.bonnebell.com) and lipsmackers (www.lipsmackers.com) both of which you can find at your local drug store for under five dollars.

* Please note, that if you want eyebrows I suggest that you go with your natural brow shape. Lightly getting rid of stray hairs can be done, but no dramatic eyebro shaping. Also, very light on the mascara and I would prefer a clear or brown shade with a more natural look for young teens.

So I hope this was useful. Thanks for reading!!!
