Matte Liquid Lipsticks. Which One to Choose?
Matte liquid lipsticks are a very popular type of lipstick. sophisticated and with surprising hold. Its resistance is a strong point because you won't have to constantly touch up as can happen with other types of lipsticks. In addition, they are characterized by an intense hold and do not stain which makes them trendy and popular. They are slightly more complicated and difficult to use than traditional lipsticks but they also differ in terms of color. In fact, they do not have a bright or glittery color (as shimmer lipsticks are) but are characterized by a more matte and dry . Since matte liquid lipsticks are not easy to apply on the lips, it is recommended, especially for the less experienced, to practice a lot and to use them only on well-hydrated lips. Matte lipstick colors. How to choose? You can choose from many different colors depending on the brands of lipsticks you choose. You can choose from caramel (mon caramel) to pink, passing through vanilla and even strawberry (with more or less intensity). There are many colors available, however liquid matte is a type of lipstick that does not suit everyone. You must therefore choose carefully, taking into account your features such as hair color, skin tone and type and, last but not least, the thickness of your lips. So how should you choose your matte liquid to always be on top? Since matte is an almost pastel and very opaque color, it is much better to apply it on thick lips. For thin lips, it would be advisable to use shimmer lipsticks or, in any case, more "bright", but if you have full lips, the opaque color is really perfect for you and it might be better to avoid colors that are too strong and obvious. pink or purple (maybe even orange!) while in case of darker skin then bright colors will be your strong point. I recommend, however, to avoid using a bright red that would accentuate any imperfections of your face. Finally choose the right color based on hair color : if you have dark hair then consider purple or purple, if you are red then it is better to apply a color similar to beige or light orange. While if you are blonde it is better to prefer all shades of pink or, perhaps, even a caramel color. So the colors are very varied but choosing the right one is not easy at all! Spreading and applying matte liquid lipsticks correctly is essential for the result to be perfect. First of all, you need to keep your lips well hydrated, soft and never dry. Obviously, if you want, you can use the dedicated primer (or even concealer and pencil to be even more precise) to be used before the liquid lipstick in order to avoid having to do continuous touch-ups in the following hours. Afterwards you can apply the lipstick starting from the outside of the lower lip. Immediately after the first coat, press your lips together in order to transfer the still fresh colour and then, with a single stroke, dedicate yourself to the upper lip. If necessary you can use the cotton swab to correct the smudges . L'OREAL INFAILLIBLE LECHOCOLATS ULTRA MATTE LIQUID LIPSTIC: This product from L'Oreal Paris is inspired by chocolate shades without melting or smudging for 12 hours. The available colors are 12 and they are all the possible shades of chocolate in highly opaque shades . In addition to not flaking, it is also very comfortable to use thanks to the presence of a drop-shaped applicator that will make the application more comfortable. - MAX FACTOR COLOR ELIXIR SOFT MATTE LIPSTICK This Max Factor brand product has different characteristics compared to the previous one. In fact, it is made up of a light texture and it is precisely for this peculiarity that it allows you to have hydrated lips and opaque at the same time. Thanks to the presence of a flocked applicator it will be really easy to apply while if you want a nice thick layer then you should do at least two coats.

Dark circles are darker shadowed areas that form around the eyes and are one of the main facial blemishes, as they affect both women and men of all ages. Since the skin around the eyes is very thin, it tends to get marked easily, giving the immediate impression of having a tired and fatigued look. The presence of dark circles can depend on various reasons and not only on lack of sleep, although a good rest can certainly be helpful in improving the situation. In fact, there are many factors that can somehow determine their appearance, some of which are genetic (medical problems) while others are environmental (stress, insomnia) or derive from annoying allergies. Whatever the reason, make-up can certainly be considered a valid ally to camouflage these dark marks but it must be studied based on the type of dark circle and its color. All types of dark circles As already mentioned, dark circles are not always the same color and their shade can depend on both the type of complexion and the shape of the face, which can accentuate more or less the shadow under the eyes. In particular, one very sharp cheekbone It can give the impression of having deeper set eyes, creating dark furrows that are difficult to hide, the colour of which tends to purple or gray . The color tones of dark circles can be: brown : they are more easily noticed on subjects with dark skin and are very difficult to hide, as they are often intense and deep, so much so that they extend over the entire eyelid; blue : present on people with olive skin, they can also tend towards a persistent purple colour; purple : this is the most common type of dark circle and is very visible especially when the complexion is very light, to the point of allowing veins and capillaries to be seen. Purple Dark Circles: Why They Appear Purple circles usually form when there is fatigue at the circulatory level, such that the blood stagnates in the capillaries, making the dark halo under the eyes more evident. This can happen both for reasons related to the physical condition of the person (fatigue and lack of sleep) and for external factors depending, for example, on too many hours spent in front of the screen or on excessively frenetic rhythms. Even a pillow that is too low can cause poor circulation and create a greater concentration of liquids.

Another fundamental characteristic, when choosing a concealer, is coverage. The make-up that you are going to apply, in fact, must be sufficiently covering, in order to hide the halo around the eyes, blending with the foundation. without creating stratifications . For summer, a waterproof concealer is recommended, such as Lancome Effacernes longue tenue , perfect to wear even on the beach, covers effectively with a long-lasting hold up to 12 hours .

The type of concealer can be chosen freely according to your preferences, but it is usual to recommend a stick product in the case of oily skin, such as Shiseido Concealer Synchro Skin Gel Light, while a more fluid product is perfect for those with drier skin . To apply concealer, it is best to start from the inner corner of the eye, applying small dots. Be careful not to rub it, but rather use a brush or a sponge to tap the area until you see the concealer blend in with your skin tone. This way, the final effect will be natural and uniform . To complete the make-up, apply a bright eyeshadow white or beige in color, right in the area close to the tear duct . Thanks to this little trick, the look will immediately appear more open , drawing attention away from dark circles.

The face highlighter is a cosmetic product aimed at covering skin imperfections, creating, at the same time, points of light that enhance the face and give an almost natural shine. Most of the time it is used as the final part of an entire make-up process, other times it is preferred to apply it at the base.

In short, the highlighter for the face has literally made all make-up lovers fall in love: all that remains is to discover every secret of this splendid product. In what format can you find the face highlighter? This cosmetic, much loved by all make-up lovers, has changed its format over time, giving space to a series of valid formulations to satisfy every need.

It would enhance or even replace the contouring . It is becoming more and more popular precisely because the idea of obtaining a natural make-up that enhances the strategic points of the face , using points of gloss is much loved, especially in the summer and for non-photographic make-up. This technique is quite simple to put into practice and is increasingly preferred over classic contouring which is considered too heavy. How to proceed First of all, it would be good to apply some primer to even out the skin tone and to provide a base for the highlighter. After that, we proceed to apply our lightener on some tactical areas. The center of the forehead to give it back dimension, the cheekbones to externalize them, the upper part of the eyelids to make the gaze more intense, the chin to make it appear narrower and to give a plumping effect to the lips. All this can be embellished with a touch of blush on the cheeks. This is an effective technique to give vitality to your face, but you have to be careful not to overdo it with the highlighter, otherwise the effect will be anything but natural. You have to use only small touches of product, so as to make the face illuminated without exaggerations that would appear artificial. One thing to be careful about is using the technique if you have a face with excessive sweating, in which case it is advisable to dab very well and give a powder finish and/or finish with a spray fixative that holds the make-up in place. It is also advisable to be careful when using this technique if you have excessive facial hair. Unfortunately, this tends to highlight the hairs. Now that we've told you everything, all that's left to do is try strobing to give your face a new light!
