3. Always have Q tips to clean your eye makeup

Using a sock instead of a beauty blender can give you a beautiful flawless finish.

15. Create a fan brush with a bobby pin

19. Always use an eyeshadow base

Make sure to apply concealer or an eyeshadow primmer to your eyelids. This will help your eyeshadow stick and blend better.

20. Color correcting helps A LOT

Color correction is when you cancel out certain colors on your face with other ones. For example over red areas you would apply the color green to cancel out the redness.

21. Apply deodorant to your thighs so they don't rub together

Ever have your thighs rubbing together in the summertime? Apply deodorant in between your thighs and it won’t happen again!

22. Apply perfume on neck and inside of wrist to last longer

This will cause your eyes to look more open and awake.

28. Bake your face if you want it to last

If you want to prevent that under eye area from creasing make sure to bake your face. This will cause your eyes to look more open and awake.

29. Set your eyebrows

Always set your eyebrows after filling them in so the hairs stay in place.

30. Blend, blend, blend

Always make sure to blend as much as possible you can never blend too much.
