Ever wondered how movie stars always seem to have such wonderful glowing skin? Well, you can enjoy that glow as well for the approaching spring and summer months. Here is how:
Start with an exfoliating scrub that is specifically designed for your skin type. Apply by gently rubbing the scrub in a circular motion with your fingertips. Rinse with warm water and pat your face dry with a soft towel. Afterwards, apply a moisturizer like our 'White Radiance UV Day Lightening Cream' for oily or combination skin. It gives you long- lasting moisture for up to 12 hours, improving your skin's texture, making it more radiant and smooth. If you have normal skin, use the 'White Radiance Crystal Clear Lotion' to bring out that glow from the inside, naturally. Next, apply a foundation to any areas of imperfection that you want to cover. For a translucent effect, blend in the foundation, using a lightly moistened sponge.
If you want to retain the glow, don't set your foundation with powder. Give yourself the 'eye'Next, sweep a beige eye shadow across your eyelids and into the crease, blending carefully to avoid unwanted lines. Then apply a creamy white shadow under the arch of your brows. Line the lower rim of your lash line with a dark brown eyeliner and lightly blend. For more dramatic eyes, you can add a few individual false lashes to the upper lash line before you apply your eye shadow. Once the false lashes are dry, you can apply a coat of dark brown mascara. For even more drama, use a full strip of false lashes instead of individuals.

To buff away any sharp lines, use a makeup sponge to blend. For oily skin, use a powder blush. If you have dry skin, try a cream blush. Dot the cream onto cheeks and blend with your fingertips.Love your kisserFinally, apply a softening lip balm over your lips and wait a minute or two. If your lips chap and flake, try rubbing a toothbrush over your lips before applying the lip balm to exfoliate them. Using a lip brush, fill in lips with a classic pale pink lipstick. To add a touch of shine, apply a clear gloss over the lipstick. You can also go an extra step by lining your lips with a lip liner that is a similar shade of colour as your lipstick. Remember to practice this look a few times before you try it for a big event. And remember, the way to a great look is to take your time when applying makeup. Never rush. Another key trick to a great look is to blend, blend and blend. You don't want harsh lines to ruin that beautiful glow!
