You tend to forget about them concentrating on your eyelashes. That’s a pity, because it is eyebrows which help your eyes look deeper, reshape your face outline adding "character" to it.

The most important thing you have to remember when shaping your eyebrows is to make them look natural. Thin eyebrows sharpen the face, whereas bushy (similar to those of the Mexican painter, Frida Kahlo) are suitable only for women of the southern type. You have to match the shape of your eyebrows to your appearance, face oval and eyes span.

Beauticians’ advice

Perfect eyebrows can hide some defects. I recommend you have a professional do your brows first to set a "blueprint", then all you have to do is pluck where the hairs grow in. Look what shape your eyebrows must have depending on your face oval.

Our professional advice will change you into a star.

You have to start at least 1.5 hours before leaving. Do not hurry – it may spoil the pleasure and effect. If you plan a date, take an aromatic bath and lit candles. But if you plan a crazy evening on a dance floor – choose an energizing shower. Play your favourite music to get into a proper mood. Remember about face scrub – makeup looks better on fresh skin.

This is the basic rule in evening makeup. Apply foundation with a sponge or your fingers, choose a tone similar to your skin colour. What dominates in this season is strong eye makeup.

Robert, an expert, says: "Emphasize eyes with an eyeliner. If you draw a line at the bottom of eyelashes, they will look thicker and it will 'open' eyes. You can use dark glossy shadow on your upper lid (use some also on a bottom lid). If you don’t want your eyes to look like panda’s after a few hours, always use powder eye shadows. Creamy ones smudge more easily. Apply three or four layers of mascara, beginning at the bottom of eyelashes so they appear thicker. Now it’s time for blush – lively (e.g. pink, apricot or peach) and glossy to make you look bright. How to apply it? Smile widely and brush raised part of cheeks."

 Everything you should know about foundations

What is foundation?

Makeup has been popular for ages. In the ancient times to hide skin defects women rubbed lead dust onto skin. In the 30s of the 20th century the forefather of today’s foundation came into existence.

Creamy powder soon became an inevitable part of woman’s life and her basic cosmetic. New types of foundation at the beginning of the 21st century changed it into the second skin and people do not believe anymore in tales connected with its harmful side-effects (e.g. about blocking up pores).

The foundation or base is the first and most important step in makeup application. Despite color pigments they also include special dyes for colour products reacting to light, light elements of silicon as well as important protective ingredients which supplement and support facial cream. Foundations protect skin against ultraviolet, frost, air pollution, contain anti-solar filters and substances catching free radicals.

Start your makeup with foundation. This is the base which determines the final effect.

Artificial suntan
Apply a couple dots of color on areas of your jawline or near your nose (the inner wrist or hand aren't the best spots, contrary to popular belief – skin on your hand has a slightly different colour than on your face).Take a good, long look - near a window. Ask to borrow a hand mirror and stand near a doorway, or step outside, to see which foundation looks best in the natural light. The right shade is one that you can't see because it blends in so well. Do not believe the shop assistant convincing you to buy darker colour so that your skin will look suntanned. Foundation must be invisible!
