Can you receive cumulative benefits from lip plumpers?
In short, no. Lip plumpers create a temporary effect rather than something that lasts like injectables. "The effects of lip plumpers are subtle, and the results are temporary," says Dr. Saedi. That said, if a plumper also contains moisturizing ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, you might notice smoother lips over t
This beautiful and chic underline eyeshadow look is easy to re-create in very little time and can be worn all year round. The focus here is under the eyes, so all you need is a cream or liquid shadow lined directly under the eyes and then smudged ever so lightly so it appears blended. Using cream or liquid eyeshadow that already has a brush attached to it gives the precision you need to make sure nothing gets into the eyes while applying, and keeps the application neat and smooth. If you have a powder shadow or pigment that you love, you can always apply it on top of the cream so that it sticks and there's no fall out under the eye. A soft lipstick or gloss, along with highlighted cheekbones and bronzer , tie this entire look toget
L'Oreal is another drugstore favorite with several standout brown lipstick shades, specifically for their classic Colour Riche Original Satin Lipstick. Not only am I obsessed with the luxe gold packaging (at only a $13 price point), but also the warm brown hue of the Brazil Nut shade, which is a go-to for an everyday brown
Makeup Artist Tip: If you really want your lashes to stand out, be sure to curl them first before applying mascara, and curl them again once the mascara has dried.

This silver eyeshadow look is stunning and can be worn for a dressy occasion in which the eyes are the total and complete focus. The key here is to make the inner corners look as bright and highlighted as possible, while the crease is smokier with darker toned eyeshadow. Use an eyeshadow primer to prime the lid and begin applying your darker colored shadow in the crease with a blending brush. You will finish with the lighter, silver-colored shadow by packing it into the corners of the eye with your finger or a flat eyeshadow brush, so the sparkle and tone are intensified. Finish with mascara and add some dramatic black waterproof eyeliner to ensure everything stays perfectly in pl
I was able to achieve some volume, though if you're looking for a very volumizing pick, there are better options on this list. Once dry, it remained in place without smudging or flaking. It's not quite as well-rounded as our best overall pick because it doesn't offer as much volume; however, if you're more interested in length and lift, you'll love

A sheer wash of color is a beautiful and simple way to add depth to your makeup look without really having to do much. It's also the perfect solution for someone who doesn't have a lot of time or likes simple, more toned down eye makeup looks. Apply a cream base to the lid, and then a shimmery, silver powder shadow of your choice all the way up to the brow bone. You can smudge it out with your finger as well for a light, soft application. Finish with a soft cream blush on the cheeks and be sure to brush some pomade through your eyebr
What mistakes should you avoid when applying mascara to aging eyes?
Our makeup artists had the same response to this question: replace your mascara often. Snag a new one every three months, confirms Scibelli. Bacteria can build up on the brush, and you don’t want it to enter the eye area. "Dry, old mascara promotes flaking, irritation, and eyelash breakage," adds Bartl
