How to Make the Most of Your Mascara and Perfect Your Lash Look

Good morning, divas.  A few weeks ago I asked for some of your favorite mascara tricks, and the ones you left were brilliant!

So, here are five fantastic ways to work those lashes with a little help from our friend (3D Fiber Lash Mascara)…

1. Younique's 3D Fiber Lash Mascara

Although it seems like there’s a lot of steps to putting on the 3D mascara, it actually goes very quickly. I should also mention, that normally, before using Younique's 3D Fiber Lash Mascara, I would apply 2-3 coats of regular mascara, so I feel the time involved to apply the Younique is about the same. If you typically only apply 1 coat of mascara, then using the Younique, you’ll be adding on about 2-3 minutes to your regular makeup routine. I’m a busy mom like many of you are, but I would totally spend the extra 2 minutes if it would make my lashes look 5x better! PLUS, its in the same price range as the more expensive brands ($35).

[...but do the other brands come with a 14 day LOVE IT Guarantee or your money back??]

Here are the steps to achieve the look in the Before & After below.

1) First you apply 1 coat of your regular mascara (if you wish, but it is not necessary)
2) Then you apply 1 coat of the Younique transplanting gel (its black and resembles regular mascara)
3) Then you apply 1 coat of the Younique green tea fibers (it looks like pieces of black fluff on a mascara wand)
4) Then you apply another coat of the Younique transplanting gel to seal it

Here's another after shot:

2. Getting down to business


Business cards aren’t just for networking anymore, LOL! Keep a few of them handy for lash work.

“I use a business card to shield my lid. It helps me curl my lashes and make sure they're all coated!” – Lauren

 

“[I] use a credit card beneath [my] lower lashes to get them coated nice and good!” – Christina

 

“I use a business card to gently pull back my upper lid so the lashes are vertical, and I can get at every single one. The business card also stops me from getting mascara smudges all over my eyeshadow!” – Jennifer

 

 

 

 

 3. It's getting hot in here...

“My secret is to heat my eyelash curler with a hairdryer so that my lashes curl better and stay put!” – Sara

 

“One of the best tips I've picked up is when your mascara starts getting dried out and clumpy, soak the tube in a cup of HOT water (obviously, with the mascara sealed shut). The heat will help make the mascara formula a little thinner and liquidy, and you can get a few more uses out of it.” – Kimmie

 

 

 

 4. What's old is new again...

Don’t toss out your old mascara wands; recycle ‘em instead!

“I wipe off the mascara wand as well to help prevent clumping. I also keep an old (but clean!) mascara wand handy and use it before my mascara dries to help separate the lashes if they do get clumpy, if I do not have a metal lash comb handy.” – Venessa

5. Powder play...

Powder isn’t just for keeping the shine at bay.

“[My] fave secret is to use a little extra loose powder under my eyes to catch any mistakes, and then brush it away after applying any eye make-up.” – Bev

 

“I use a little loose powder on my lashes before I apply my mascara to make them look thicker.” – Julie

 

 

Now get out there and play with those lashes, ladies! May they always look longer, thicker and clump-free! Here is a great video to watch to also help you perfect those lashes with Younique's 3D Fiber Lash Mascara

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Ang

8 Smarter Ways To Put On Your Makeup

8 Smarter Ways To Put On Your Makeup

We put on makeup every morning, probably using the same routine we’ve used for years. We have it set to a science, but is our science the best we can be? We can be saving time and energy by doing our makeup smarter – and it’s often easier than you may think!

Prep the skin:

Preparing the skin is a must before you apply any type of foundation. This means starting with Younique's Illuminate Face Wash to clean your face to get any residue and dirt off your face. After washing your face apply Younique's Glorious Face and Eye Primer, and allow it to set a minute. Taking these steps prior to foundation will ensure your skin is both protected, clean and smoother with less visible pores and fine lines. Primer will keep foundation from settling in to fine lines, extend time between touch-ups as well as hide larger pores.

The power of powder:

Younique's Touch Pressed Powder is the great equalizer if you’ve applied too much eyeshadow or blush. Blend away a bit of the excess and pat on some pressed powder. It will take the edge off the color and soften it. This also works well if your brow filler looks too dark or too warm.

Order matters:

Apply lipstick or Younique's Gluten Free Lucrative Lipgloss first and then add your lip liner. Once lipstick is applied you can see exactly where you need the lip liner. Bonus: The two will fade together instead of leaving you with that “ring around the lips”!

Applying our Moodstruck Mineral Eye Pigments first before foundation can be a great clean up time saver and be smarter as well. If dramatic eyes are your thing, you know the shadow can be messy! Apply the entire eye look first, use a facial wipe to clean up & then your foundation and the rest of your makeup. It’s faster, and no worries of darker eye pigments accidentally mixing into your concealer or foundation! Another smart tip for eye pigments and liner, use a strip of paper medical tape (at most drugstores for about $4) and apply it on outer edge of eyes in a slanted direction from mid-point of lower lashes to temple. Paper medical tape is gentler than regular tape to the delicate eye area.

Clean up, don’t give up:

If you’ve applied too much foundation, no need to remove it all. Simply grab a cotton ball and buff away the excess by tapping over it in circular motions. The excess foundation ends up on the cotton and what’s left behind is buffed to a natural finish.

Blending is key:

If you struggle to create a smooth line with eyeliner, apply the liner first (on upper lash line) then add eye pigment powder, blending the shadow on your lids right into the liner. No one will be able to tell where the eye shadow ends and the line begins, so the eye liner will look perfect! PS....did I mention that Younique's Precision Eye Liners are NO SMUDGE!!

Mix and match:

If you bought a foundation or concealer that is too light for your complexion, don’t toss it. Add an apricot or nude blush or a light bronzer and it will warm up the color to make it match your complexion.

Perfect lips:

Try using Younique's NO SMUDGE Precision Lip Liner as your lip color. Line outer lips and fill in with same color. Add a swipe of gloss or lip balm and your done! Lasts for HOURS and totally KISSABLE too!

TIP: Get the Angelina full, seductive lip look by lining your lips how the picture above is displayed with Younique’s Pouty Lip Liner followed by some Luxe Lip Gloss over the top. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Everyone Needs a Little Uplift

Since the launch of Younique's Uplift Eye Serum in September 2014, it has been hard to keep it on the "shelves". It completely sold out in October and again in November. You ask, what is this "Liquid Gold" that has all the ladies and men (yes, men get wrinkles too!) wanting more! All I can say is that MANY WOMEN cannot be wrong if we are all buying it and loving it!

Younique's Uplift Eye Serum is (aka "Botox in a Bottle") a brand new, proprietary formula, specially designed to replenish, moisturize, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. As we set out to create this revolutionary new product, our mission was to source only the highest quality, safest ingredients.

Our bodies naturally produce CoQ10, vitamin E, and vitamin C, which are all crucial ingredients for the health of our skin. As we age, our bodies produce less and less of these vital nutrients. While we may never be able to recover these nutrients, we can supplement them. Uplift contains vitamins E and C—powerful antioxidants which help fight the effects of free radicals and long-term sun exposure. Squalane, derived from sugarcane, acts as a natural skin lipid to help deliver moisture below the surface of the skin. Younique Uplift Eye Serum also contains Sweet Iris, which helps the skin appear more firm and supple.

The bottle lasts approximately 6 months as you only need two (2) tiny drops every night. Take the price of $65USD and divide it by 6 months....seems like a no brainer to me. Uplift is nutrition for your skin! #musthave
