1.     Replace your lipstick with lip balm

Tinted lip balms are a refreshing alternative to the matte lip trend, leaving your lips dry and cracked. Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balms are only around $5 and available at most grocery stores and pharmacies.

 

2.     Moisturizer and Eye Creams

Lotion is your best friend in winter. Conquering dry skin without clogging your pores isn’t necessarily easy. Neutrogena and Cetaphil, two brands that focus on acne treatments are both particular about making lotion for oily skin. They are very light and fluffy. Under eye creams are also a way to skip concealer. Olay Illuminating Eye Cream is said to reduce under eye circles in just two weeks while also giving you a dewy glow. You are never too young to start taking care of your skin.

 

3.     Brow Gel

Throw out your brow pencils. Brow gels naturally enhance your eyebrows. They leave your brows looking light and fluffy and help them stay in place all day and night long. Maybelline Brow Drama is a cheap alternative to more expensive kinds and does just the trick.

4.     Curl Your Lashes

Big fluffy lashes typically take layer after layer of mascara to gain their volume. However, you can minimize your mascara usage by curling your lashes prior to applying your mascara. This will add both length and shape.

 

5.     Bronzer where??

Yes, you can still use bronzer, but don’t reach for a contouring brush. For this you will be using an eyeshadow brush. Apply bronzer to the crease of your eyelid. This will give your eye dimension while appearing more natural.
