Tips For Self Tanning Your Face

Hey,

Summer is coming to an end and well all want to keep that glowing tan we got this summer through the whole winter and that's where self tanner becomes your friend. The self tanner for the face I like is the Lorac SelfTantalizer for face. I find that it give me light glowing color; this product is a gradual self tanner.

When using self tanner on your face you first want to read the instructions and do a patch test on your wrist, this will not only show you if you'll have a reaction but if the product will turn you orange. I generally use the same amount of self tanner as I would moisturizer, don't over do it. Using too much is how you get strikes. Generally all you need is a dime size. I rub the product in between my hands and then all over my face, getting the ears and down the neck. This is important because without these areas it will look really strange and fake. After I cover my face I go over my face with a clean stippling brush. This is very important, it will insure your completely blended in and help get rid of patches that just using your hands could leave. It will also leave you look more naturally tan. Last thing I do is wash my hands, make sure you do this immediately after you finish or you'll end up with tan palms and that's not always a good look.

Other things you should always do before self tanning: apply to freshly cleaned, dry skin. Exfoliate prior to self tanning and slowly build up the color, never apply four coats at one time. I also suggest waiting eight to twelve hours before washing your face again.

Bronze Slutry Eyes

Hey,

This look is easy and so pretty for a night out this summer. It is using one palette and just a few other products. The palette used for this look was the Ooh La Lace palette by Lorac, it is a great palette for both day and night looks, it comes with six baked shadows, enough about the palette, but if you would like to know more about it I have a review on it which you can see here.
 
What I used:
  • Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden
  • Lorac Ooh La Lace palette, all shades excepts the gray
  • Rimmel Scandal Eyes Kohl Liner in Brown
  • Avon Glimmersticks Diamonds in Flashy Copper
  • ELF Liquid Eyeliner in Black
  • Random unknown mascara
What I did:

  1. Primed my eyes with UD Primer Potion, I set this with my face powder
  2. Lined my eyes with the brown liner and put a little in the outer v, I then blended this out with my finger.
  3. I packed the brown from the palette over the liner then blended it out into the crease. I also smoked it out on my lash line.
  4. I added more brown to the outer v and crease till it was as dark as I wanted.
  5. I dabbed my brush very lightly into the black then blended this into my outer v, just the littlest black, I didn't want it to look like there was any black but just darken up the outer v without using any other palettes or single shadows.
  6. I patted on the bronze shade to my lid and blended the edges, I also took this slightly into the inner part of my crease.
  7. I highlighted under my brow and made sure all edges were blended out with the lightest shade in the palette.
  8. I lined my lower lash line, tight and water line with the brown liner, leaving the inner corner and very inner third clean. I lined the inner third with the copper liner.  
  9. I set all the liners with coordinating colors and blended the brown liner out.
  10. I lined my top lash line with the liquid liner and applied a few coats of mascara.
  11. Lastly I cleaned up the edges, applied concealer, and did my eyebrows.
