Shimmer highlights are good to apply on the skin for a glamorize eyes look for night outings. The eye lashes that are accentuated by mascara look stand out and amazing.

For better results, apply mascara from the root of the eye lashes and then move towards the tip. Use brown mascara to create a softer and more flattering look.

Another primary facial segment is lips. When you are applying makeup, you need to pay more attention to the lips. Before applying lip color, please smoothed them firstly. Apply foundation and define the lips by a lip liner.

Use a lipstick only without a lip liner for thick lips and you may use light shades to make thinner lips look fuller. The lips would appear more luscious with soft matte colors in pink, berry, coral or peach.

Along with the season, makeup procedure changes as well. Light sheer makeup with water proof mascara, transfer resistant lipstick and water proof foundation are really good to use during rainy season to avoid the risk of makeup smudging.

Women would look more glamorous and polished by using shades like coffee, chocolate and berry tones for cheeks and smoky shades for the eyes during winter season. Also there are a lot of gloss and glimmer used during the festive winter season. By using a light touch of translucent powder, you may create a summery dewy face, with a golden green for eyes. And to provide a sun-tan effect, use a light shade of bronze on the cheek bones and chin.
