MAKE UP TIPS


Hi ya pretty girls,

Here's our second post on external beauty and today we will be talking about make up! How you look actually affects how you feel as it is closely tied to self-esteem issues. As our blog title implies "Look good, feel good,"  when you look good, you will actually feel good about yourself, isn't it? :) Whether you're barefaced 24/7 or waking up 2 hours early to get yourself dolled up, here's 4 benefits of makeup you might not have known! Spare me just 10 minutes of your time and I just might be able to get you acquainted with a couple of makeup products.
  • Improve your mood: 
    Scientific studies have shown that colours do in fact affect our moods. Flashback to when you were little kids, didn't you just love those colouring books? Well, makeup is just like that except this time, that pretty little page is your pretty little face and with every dash of colour, you will be able to accentuate not only your lovely jawline but your cheekbones and eyelids as well.
  • Enhance beauty: 
    Bringing out your features is by far one of the best advantages of wearing makeup. You have an eyebrow crease to die for? Great, so why not spread a pleasant shade of cream on that? And while you're at it, apply some mascara as well to give your eyes that stunning curl. Like they say right, if you've got it, flaunt it! (In the right ways, of course.
  • Hide insecurities: 
    Perhaps you already look flawless, but those sleepless nights spent up finishing assignments will definitely show on your face. Plus, you never know when pimples may pay your beautiful face a visit. Fret not! There's nothing concealer can disguise, not those panda eyes and certainly not that pesky pimple on the top of your nose. On days like those, let concealer do the job of making you look well rested and fresh.
  • Exhibit your personal style: 
    Think of yourself as an artist, your face is your canvas and you can paint it however you want to. Likewise, makeup allows you to exhibit your personal style. You not only have a palette of colours to work with but you've textures and techniques! You don't have to play by the norms either, artists are free beings so make use of that freedom and express who you are!
So today we have 3 videos to emphasize on the correct ways to put on your mascara, blusher and the right ways to draw your brows! 

Make up #1: Mascara!



Make up #2: Eyebrow!

Make up #3: Blusher & Bronzer!


As mentioned, we have included the make up products that we have used in the videos above. Also, we also put in some products which our team find it good and recommend y'all to get it! Check it out!

1. The Balm Time Balm Concealer

Time Balm comes with a sponge and a screw-top pot. Ohsobeaute team feels that this concealer is good as it will be able to stay put for at least 5 hours, without any cracking or settling into any fine lines!

2. bareMinerals foundation in matte! 
This one is really good.  It helps to absorb excess oil and eliminate shine for a natural matte finish.



3. Urban Decay Brow Box
This comes with two different colors, and it comes with two small angled brushes and also a pair of tweezers. Ohsobeaute team find this really handy because on days that you are outside and there is this stray hair that you need to pluck out... you can do it with the tweezer! Most importantly, the colors look very natural and nice! 



 4. Maybelline HyperSharp Liner
Ohsobeaute team absolutely L.O.V.E this eyeliner! The brush tip is extremely fine and perfect for thin lines, which is good for a school look as it won't be too exaggerating. Try it out and you will understand why we love it!



5. Maybelline Hyper Curl Volume Express
6. Maybelline Magnum Volume Express

We love these 2 mascaras because it stays all day long on us! Gotta love Maybelline!



7. E.L.F. Conturing Blush & Bronzer

"Create a healthy and natural glow all year long with the Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder. The Blush highlights the cheeks to add a flush of colour, while the Bronzer accents and contours cheekbones for beautiful definition."


Yup! Explains it all~



8. Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick
This product is available in 20 shades and it gives instant moisture and wear because there is moisturizing shea butter and aloe is food proof and doesn’t quit.

That's all for today pretty heads, stay tuned for more upcoming posts!
