It’s time to toss out your spring and summer makeup and step into fall’s new collection of dazzling colors, shimmery shadows and dramatic looks. It’s a time for renewing your way of thinking and changing your look for the better. So if you’re a drama queen, try subduing your look this fall by going for a simpler, more natural look. If you tend to shy away from dramatic looks, embrace it by adding lots of color to your makeup collection.

GET THE NATURAL LOOK
There is nothing more beautiful than a woman who feels confident enough to wear her makeup in a simple, natural way. You can get this soft, natural look by accentuating your best features and keeping everything clean and simple.

GET THE DRAMATIC LOOK
This is for all of you that shy away from dramatic makeup; it’s time to play it up! Dark, dramatic makeup is reminiscent of the late 1950’s Hollywood celebs and is always a timeless, classic look that is great for the evening.

It’s unbelievable value, even for what you get. Women everywhere have discovered that the products aren’t that different from regular department store beauty products, from the all over color stick, bronzing powder, lip gloss, and mascara to the array of brushes in-store. Still a doubter? It wouldn’t hurt at all to try one (or five) of their products. You’ll wonder why you ever thought $20 for a beauty product was worth every cent.

Lip Color for Your Skin

One of the quickest and easiest ways to transform your look is with the use of a lipstick. You do not need to partner it with your nail polish or wardrobe but you might want to consider the clothes that you are wearing. It helps. It is important to take note that your lip color should compliment the rest of your make-up and most especially your skin tone.
People who have an olive complexion should opt to use lipsticks with warm undertone to make their skin look brighter. These colors could be light brown, raisin brown and brown reds. However, people with fair skin color should opt for warm peach or pink undertones and people with pale complexion could use just almost any shade and use dramatic shades. Moreover, dark complexioned people look best with lipsticks that are deep red with dark blue or purple undertones or lipsticks that are deep brown with purple, wine or blue undertones.

Moisturize you Dry Lips

If your suffering from dry, scaly lips, a simple do-it-yourself home treatment to remove old skin takes only a small scoop of Vaseline and an old toothbrush. Step 1: Put some petroleum jelly with your lips.
Step 2: Use the old toothbrush to massage it in a circular motion.
Step 3: Wipe off the excess petroleum jelly with tissue paper.

The purpose of the toothbrush is to remove the old skin on the lips while the petroleum jelly leaves your lips very supple. Do it a couple times a every day until your lips are no longer dry.

Whether it be red, pink, brown or mauve, it�s still best to put color on your lips. Choosing the best color of lipstick you�ll use depends on the color of the clothes you�ll wear or on the occasion you�re going to use it, whether it is formal or casual.

Aside from the color, lipstick also has several types. There�s the sheer, which looks natural, wet and shiny but does not last that long. Metallic shimmer, that looks more subtle and matte, which last longer and provides deep opaque colors.
