Are you a Beauty or a Beast…???

The Beauty and The Beast - The Do’s and Don’ts of Beauty

The Beauty:

· Applies her makeup in daylight and in a mirror which is near a window

· Applies lip balm both morning and night to avoid chapped lips

· Cleanses, Tones and Moisturizers twice a day(cleanse only in evening)

· Washes her makeup brushes so they don’t cause breakouts.

· Changes her foundation shade to fit in with the seasonal change in her skin tone

· Applies mascara to her top lashes, as it casts a shadow underneath the eye when applied to the lower lashes.

· Ensures her lipstick is long lasting by applying foundation over her lips, colouring her lips with a lip liner and applying lipstick followed by a gloss

· Updates her makeup every season to prevent her makeup expiring

· Exercises regularly to deliver more oxygen to her skin and have a clearer complexion

· Gives her skin a break from makeup at least once a week

· Uses a beige, neutral or yellow undertone foundation shade that disappears into her natural skin colour

· Is gentle when applying makeup ensuring she never pulls any skin off

· Has a healthy diet and drinks 6-8 glasses of water a day

· Only applies enough foundation to evenly spread over her face

· Plucks only the stray hairs underneath her eyebrows and when wanting to change their shape, she goes to a professional

· Always makes sure she applies daily sun block .

· Moisturizers her skin before applying foundation

The Beast:

· Sleeps with makeup on, where her mascaraed lashes break and her left on foundation clogs her pores and causes breakouts

· Smokes, drinks lots of coke and coffee and plenty of alcohol

· Keeps and uses her old makeup

· Plucks the top of her eyebrows, which distorts her natural shape

· Lets her skin sizzle and dehydrate in the sun by not applying any sun block

· Squeezes her pimples, which aggravates them and only makes them worse

· Sticks with the same makeup look, never experiments with product or application

· Puts foundation all over her face, right up to her hairline

· Doesn’t remove her makeup before working out. The combination of makeup and sweat then causes her skin to break out.

· Over tweezes her eyebrows to make them very thin. By doing this her eyes loose dimension and she throws of the balance of her face

· Splashes her face with hot water before she cleanses, instead of warm water to soften her skin and loosen the dirt and oil in her pores

· Piles tonnes of concealer on top of a swollen pimple

· Eats large proportions of chocolate, chips and ice-cream (oh my god..I do this)

· Cleanses, Tones and Moisturises a few times every couple of weeks · Never cleans her makeup tools, causing her makeup to be unevenly spread.
