Blowdryers are not what they used to be, and we can expect them to get fancy as time goes on. There is a blowdryer by RevAir ($399) which acts like a vacuum that pulls your strands and sucks all the excess moisture. Once the process is done, the hair is left looking a lot more smooth and frizz-free.

Magic Mirrors

There is already a mirror that can analyse your face, complexion & your minor imperfections. It recognizes the size of your pores, detects red spots, and deals with dark circles. What you can expect in the future, is a mirror that will fix all of these imperfections, and will also do makeup for you! Procter & Gamble announced a product that is called the Opte Precision Wand, perfect for detecting any spot that needs more coverage.

Fragrance Power

You know how a scent can change your whole mood? Well, there will be a specific technology that will allow some ingredients to absorb directly into your bloodstream! This will apply to some ingredients that cannot be harmful, such as CBD oil, coffee etc.

You won’t have to leave your house to purchase products ever again!

A Facelift

No reason to pay a crazy sum of money for a facelift, nor to lay in the recovery bed for 2 weeks! A company in Boston is coming out with a treatment that will do 1000 small cuts instead of big ones, which will give immediate results without any cuts, irritations, or long downtime.

Biodegradable Beauty

As you know by now, we should reduce our plastic waste. In the future, almost every brand will make its packaging eco-friendly and reusable. This will also help our country as well as its ecosystems.

24th January 2020

Getting into the beauty industry should be on your list, especially if you are skilled in doing makeup. Nowadays both men & women can do magic transformations and can transform someone’s appearance in less than 60 minutes! There are many reasons why you should become a makeup artist, and there are some facts that you’d wish you knew sooner about this carrier choice.

Persistence Makes An Amazing Makeup Artist

https://pixabay.com/photos/makeup-artist-makeup-portrait-487063/

Being a makeup artist means having patience, as well as a mind of steel. Persistence is what creates an amazing makeup artist, and a beauty expert. Some days you will be doing only bridal looks, but at one point (and if the opportunity presents itself) you will work on a movie set! These sets can take 10-12 hours of your time, but your overtime is paid, and the opportunity itself is great for developing a new skill set!

Billing It Can Always Be Different

https://www.freepik.com/free-photo/woman-applying-eye-shadow-model_5823356.htm#page=1&query=makeup%20artist&position=17

So many makeup artists are worried about their pricing, as well as how to present it to their clients. At first, know that it is okay to work for a low fee or even for free! You are gaining experience, getting exposure, and getting to know the world itself. Months later, you will be able to bill some gigs in one way, and others in another. Always ask yourself, how much is this job worth to you? It’s okay to switch up your prices per client, just be clever about it.

Up-Close & Personal Is The Way

https://www.freepik.com/free-photo/professional-woman-making-up-girl-s-lips_4868421.htm

Being up-close and personal is the way to get to know a person, but to also build a specific bond. Some makeup artists can even expend their expertise and can do makeup on sets & films while doing prosthetics and Sci-fi looks. In these moments, you get to paint someone’s body, and you get to know them a lot deeper. Some artists can even end up gaining a friend, especially if you two hit it off.

Working At A Shop Can Be An Advantage

https://www.freepik.com/free-photo/set-decorative-cosmetics-makeup-brushes-white-background_2856930.htm#page=1&query=makeup%20artist&position=10

A lot of makeup artists and freelance artists start out while working at a makeup counter, or a makeup store. Your knowledge background from, let’s say Sephora or MAC, can contribute in so many different ways. Always be open for suggestions, they may come handy later on!

There Are Different Makeup Techniques, For Everyone!

https://www.pexels.com/photo/man-s-portrait-3068932/

A makeup artist can do so many different looks. Are you a fan of soft bridal looks? Maybe you like runway & fashion beats? Some makeup artists will work on television, and others at a theatre! The opportunities are endless, especially if you are willing to learn, and put in the hard work.

There Are Different Kinds Of Courses

https://unsplash.com/photos/Ytn_O0yMI9w

Asides from different techniques and approaches, there are many different solutions that you can go for. Some will prefer the local authority or government founded colleges as well as courses, while others will look into some private makeup schools. Those who dislike what their city or country can offer can find a solution by looking into some online courses. Every makeup course can vary in length from 1-2 months to 1-2 years! Shorter courses are usually a bit more intense, and longer courses are for those who are not in a rush.

You Are Always Investing In Your Kit

https://unsplash.com/photos/FoeIOgztCXo

Buying the cheapest makeup is a solution at first, but not as you develop your skills. Clients will always seek and ask for something new & modern in your makeup kit. This is why it is crucial to build it up as time goes by. However, the more money you invest in your kit, the higher the pricing for your services should be!

You Can Change Lives

https://unsplash.com/photos/jIYSrboB7FQ

At the end of the day, makeup artists are magicians. They get to change someone’s face, mood, and they get to see them blossom! They work with so many different age groups, skin types, as well as on many different events. Nothing beats that happiness when a bride hugs you, or when you give someone a transformation that they will remember forever!

How To Do NYE Party Makeup Looks

28th December 2019

If you need inspiration for this NYE glam, we will present the top three most-popular looks. In December, a lot of women will be wearing red lipsticks, as well as golden shadows. However, how about you put these two looks aside and do them only for Christmas? NYE demands a different approach, as well as bolder and different looks, like the following ones:

Glitter Cut Crease

A glitter cut-crease is perfect for women who love dramatic looks. If you are planning on wearing a sequin dress – pair it along with a bright glittery eye! This makeup can be worn by anyone, and it will take you around 60 minutes to achieve this glam.

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/AWba-ZLDa8uby5oKhJIx6SY6_5LZRbRDiHuags2f-fzTRl4mYfFZJOI/

Always start with your eyes when you are playing around with glitter. Make sure you prep your eyelids with either a concealer or with a shadow base.

Apply a brown matte shadow into the crease. Work it upwards with a round fluffy brush. Once the color is blended, cut the crease with a flat brush. Use, yet again, concealer, and carve out the lid to achieve the perfect black canvas – this is where you’ll be placing glitter.

Pack on glitter with a flat brush. Your glitter can be any color (try and match it with the color of your dress). Finish off the look with your mascara or even with your false lashes.

Keep your skin bronzed, as well as glowy. Lip-wise, a nude is always a good choice.

A Pop Of Color

A pop of color is usually a bold statement look, worn and loved by younger women as well as teens. This trend was brought back to the scene this year when Kylie Jenner started to post and enjoy a brighter (yet unusual) pop of color in her inner corner. If you are a fan of quick looks, know that it will take you around 45 minutes to achieve this glam.

https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fpbs.twimg.com%2Fmedia%2FDwqeNsRU0AA6SIf.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Flustrelux%2Fstatus%2F1083852621809516544&docid=gvc4x9mZSnko0M&tbnid=_If1TcWEpRtoVM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwiX37am27zmAhXB26QKHdQdBOoQMwhhKAYwBg..i&w=634&h=793&bih=608&biw=1366&q=pink%20inner%20corner&ved=0ahUKEwiX37am27zmAhXB26QKHdQdBOoQMwhhKAYwBg&iact=mrc&uact=8

You can do your primer & foundation first because the eye portion is simple, and it won’t cause any unwanted mess. Apply your favorite base products with your trusted tools (can be a sponge or a brush).

Since the emphasis is on the pop of color, go for a bright pink or coral blush! This color will suit anyone who is trying to achieve a radiant, youthful, as well as glowy outcome.

Once your base is done, begin doing your eyes. We recommend that you stick with a light beige color on the lid (or any color which suits your skin tone the best). Blend it in with a fluffy brush.

Now, pop a hint of color into your inner corner. This should be a bright shimmery shade (blue, pink, yellow, orange). Make sure you pair up the color with the color of your dress.

Also, go for a statement lip color. Something crazy & vibrant that matches your eyes will be a full strike!

Juicy Red Lips

Lastly, if you like playing around with lipsticks instead of shadows, this makeup look will suit you. If you have bigger lips or you are a fan of red lipstick, make sure you go for this solution out of three. Mature women, as well as those who like quick & easy looks, will easily do this glam, in less than 30 minutes!

https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.byrdie.com%2Fthmb%2F7ieYq83CQ1PEsS1iIT4qm76fcDE%3D%2F700x700%2Fsmart%2Ffilters%3Ano_upscale()%2Fcdn.cliqueinc.com__cache__posts__269566__asos-design-gloss-makeup-review-269566-1538995321601-image.700x0c-80a94b7d2b0344a4bb769b95dadf1266.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.byrdie.com%2Fasos-design-gloss-makeup-review&docid=-OymKEHCxIbagM&tbnid=ODmJ3vHgTd8M2M%3A&vet=10ahUKEwiFlbTj27zmAhUOC-wKHYkgCNAQMwheKAMwAw..i&w=700&h=700&bih=608&biw=1366&q=red%20gloss%20makeup&ved=0ahUKEwiFlbTj27zmAhUOC-wKHYkgCNAQMwheKAMwAw&iact=mrc&uact=8

Make sure you prime your skin and give it moisture. Those who are planning on spending 5+ hours outside the house during the NYE will need high-quality products.

Spritz your skin with a setting spray after your base is done. A bit of bronzer will suit your look, as well as simple brushed out brows. Women who prefer highlight can stick with this as their go-to instead of a bronzer, or instead of a blush.

Keep your eyeshadow neutral and simple. In fact, you can even apply a matte powder just to set your oils in place! Don’t forget 2 layers of your favorite mascara, and add only a bit of shimmer underneath your brows, as well as in your inner corner.

Lastly, it is time for your lips! Are you a fan of dark red lipsticks, mauves, purples, or burgundy colors? Well, either way, we recommend lining your lips with your favorite lip pencil. After that apply your matte lipstick by sweeping the color on your upper and lower lip. Once this dries down, reach for a mesmerizing gloss! Two layers will give so much life to your lips, as well as shine!

Top 5 Makeup Tips For Teenage Girls

4th October 2019

Younger girls or teens can have a hard time trying to express their creativity through makeup. However, all women love to experiment & play around with fashion & makeup tips in their everyday lives. If you love to apply makeup daily, know that our tips will be useful. Makeup is not a ”one size fits all” which is why it is crucial to customize it per your age, skin type & personal preference. Younger women have specific skin which should be nourished & approached differently. So, if you want to maintain the tenderness & a youthful look, you will love some of our tips.

Makeup tips are For Everyone, Just With The Right Application

Makeup isn’t just for hot dates & office wear, nor mature women & brides. Nowadays teens are wearing makeup to school and definitely in college. Teens are quite involved in everything that is happening and are always following the hottest trends while purchasing all the right makeup & skincare products.

If you want to know some makeup tricks which will boost your confidence while not aging you, make sure to read through. Also, try to remember that you don’t have to apply makeup to become someone else. Use it to put your best face forward, and to feel better in your skin.

Top 5 Makeup Tricks For Teens

Your Age

Your skin is probably a lot better than the skin of a 40-year old woman. This is why you won’t need to conceal a lot. Know your limits and only apply makeup as per your age. Also, a dark black smokey eye and a bright red lipstick may look amazing on a runway model, but they may not be an ideal go-to for a teenage girl.

Less Is More

Since your skin is probably normal-oily you won’t need a lot of products. All you could use is a bit of BB or CC cream, or a medium-coverage concealer just to hide some spots. You can apply these products with your fingers and you’ll be left with a radiant, natural & streak-free outcome, perfect for school! Just make sure you don’t apply a hefty amount of setting powder. It can age you, and get into fine lines which you didn’t even know you had.

Use Highlight

Emphasize your prettiest features with a highlight shade. Try to accentuate your cheeks, inner corners, and your brow bone. Add your favorite highlighter by doing tapping motions and apply the product gradually. The best shade is something which is 2-3 shades lighter than your skin tone, and something that is not too beamy on the skin.

High-Quality Products Are Important

You shouldn’t go all-out, especially if you are on a budget. However, what you can do is focus on buying a lot fewer products, but invest in some key pieces. For instance, you can purchase a 3 in 1 base product which can act as an amazing primer, moisturizer & foundation! Being a teen is challenging since you are prone to breakouts, so rather invest in some quality products, especially for your skin & lids.

Learn All Over Again

No one expects you to know everything regarding makeup. It is important to learn as you go, and as you test out new products. Don’t be so hard on yourself if you don’t get it within your first try. Skills are learned through tries & errors, so make sure you have the patience to start over & over again. Lastly, remember to drink a lot of water & eat clean! A proper diet can help your body & skin, so make sure you intake your H20 and stay away from greasy food.

Top 3 Makeup Tips Which Will Allow You To Get A Slimmer Face

17th September 2019

Did you know that you can lose 20 pounds just by using some good makeup tips? Sculpting, shaping & contouring your face are just some of the top tricks which every girl should know how to do.

Also, did you know that women who have round faces tend to look a lot younger? If your face is round your probably have defined cheeks, a rounded chin, as well as overall feminine & attractive features. If this sounds like your face & you are trying to slim it down just remember to do these top 3 tricks.

Define Your Brows

Try to define & draw your brows every day with either a brow pencil or a brow pomade. By doing an angled brow it can actually open up your face & gives it dimension. Fill in your brows and shape them with your favorite brow product. Make sure your brow pencil or pomade is the same color as your hair, or only one shade lighter. It is also vital to add a bit of highlighter underneath the brow to give it some shine. This way the brow which is a dark shadow will look beautiful once placed next to a contrasted lighter color.

Use A Lot Of Bronzer & Contour

Bronzer gives warmth to the skin. It also makes you a bit thinner as well as a lot more radiant. You can apply it to the edges of your face to get a seamless shadow. Apply it in circular motions onto your cheeks, chin & forehead.

Contour-wise, you can use a muted brown or a light gray to bring back dimension. Do the infamous ”3” color placement on the sides of your face (on the outer part of your forehead, over your cheeks, and below your jaw). The contour ”sucks” everything in while your bronzer brings back the shine & doesn’t wash you out.

Don’t Forget Your Lips Either

Use either matte or shimmery lipsticks to bring back life & color to your lips. Your lips can also take away the attention from a chubby or round-shaped head. You should use some darker lipsticks such as brown, red, or burgundy because these will emphasize your teeth & your smile.

Apply the product by doing tapping motions just so you are left with the most pigment. Reapply when needed and enjoy your sculpted look!

How Generation Z Created A Whole New Trend In The Makeup Industry

16th September 2019

Makeup Industry Is A Fast-Growing Business Many young people nowadays are finding their inspiration through Instagram or YouTube videos & tutorials. For most of them, their idols are James Charles who has 16 million subscribers. After him comes Jeffree Star with 15 million, and then comes NikkieTutorails with 13 million subscribers. The beauty industry is a fast-growing business. The U.K. beauty & personal care market was valued at £10.2bn in 2018. Usually, women that are in their 16-24 spend 30% more than they used to do a year ago. Nowadays almost everyone is shopping at Morphe or beauty bay, and everyone has access to makeup, which wasn’t the cause 5-10 years ago. If you have some pocket money and access to YouTube, you will probably get inspired to create at one point.

Milly Provenzano is a Gen-Z 16-year-old makeup artist who just can’t stop creating. She loves to create rainbow inspired looks, and she sees true beauty in pretty much everything. Provenzano has several different photographs in her room that inspire her to go onwards. She is also very active on Instagram where she follows all of her makeup industry idols. She says that’s where you can learn a lot from drag queens since they aren’t shy with their work nor appearance. Besides them, she also loves Antoinette Mahr.

When being interviewed and asked by a journalist how she can allow herself to spend several hours every day just to do makeup, Milly responded in a very grown-up way. She said that it’s like comparing someone who loves to do A-level art and asking them why they like to do it. Painting, coloring, doing makeup or drag are in the same line of professions to her. Makeup to her is just like art, but you get to do it on your face.

Milly is trying to do as many colorful and unique looks each day. She says that it is a bit strange being as expressive & creative when you live in a little village in Northamptonshire. She never spots people wearing rainbow-colored eyes, or rocking drag makeup. One day Milly would love to become a makeup artist for fashion shows. She dreams of going to London & Milan. This just proves that Gen-Z does dream quite big.

Makeup Is A Skill

A 17-year old from Manchester Aiman Sheeraz says that makeup is a skill which you need to master. Her favorite & most demanding part is learing how to blend. Aiman got into makeup industry because she used to watch bridal makeup tutorials, but she would also love to see her mom apply makeup. Her mom passed away a couple of months ago, but Aiman continued to do looks on her family members. Soon she started to post them online and that’s when her hobby became her full-time job.

Thus far she noticed that she usually works with two different types of clients. First off there are those who love the hot sculpted trends which have been invented by the Kardashians & Jenners. On the other hand, some people love a softer ”Asian glam”. This look is consistent out of a glowy base, soft skin, beautiful lips & bold eyes.

But It Can Still Get Pretty Colorful

Niamh Dunne is a 19-year old worker from Northamptonshire who finds inspiration in TV shows. The Lion King and Stranger Things are two major inspirations for teens nowadays, where youngsters transform themselves into their favorite characters.

Many people love to critique this and state that they should focus on their careers & school. However, those are usually older generations (and not the open-minded Gen-Z’s) who are not aware of the success and exposure which you can get through Instagram.

The best example is Kylie Jenner who created a billion-dollar industry with her cosmetics line. Did you know that she is on the Forbes list as well? Out of 80 women who were listed & claimed to be self-made rich in the last year, 10 of them came from the skincare & makeup industry.

How Does Makeup Affect Their Self-Image?

Some parents are worried that makeup can have an impact on their children’s appearance & self-esteem. However, Sheeraz is actually almost always bare-faced. Many Gen-Z’s do their makeup only for pictures, photoshoots, and their personal playtime. Not a lot of them walk out wearing Lion King orange & whisker inspired looks.

Makeup Is For Everyone

Nowadays brands like Makeup and Fluide are coming out with a genderless cosmetic set of products. Not only them but legendary brands such as Chanel & Givenchy have also launched the male lines. Boys are definitely not excluded from wearing makeup. One of them is the 17-year-old Matt Tierney.

He confessed in one of his interviews that he tried to get his mom to buy him makeup. He told her that he was off to Halloween party when he was 14. She saw right through him and knew that he wouldn’t wear it only for Halloween, but that soon it would become a full-time thing. Tierney had the confidence to film himself and post his videos online. Nowadays he explores & loves to do makeup. One of his current goals is to get 100k followers on Instagram since he believes that this is a huge accomplishment.

Finding Trustworthy Influencers Is Hard

Many people are questioning decisions & reviews that their favorite influencers do. This is because often things are sponsored and presented in way better light than they are. Luckily in the US, the Federal Trade Commission said that every pair promotion needs to be disclosed by the brand. This is why nowadays you also see that ”paid partnership” section on Instagram.

Some beauty and makeup industry gurus & vloggers get free products which they get to keep. In return, they usually do a 20-second review of the product on their IG story. Sheeraz herself estimates that she had spent around £1,000 on her favorite products thus far. She says that she doesn’t mind investing in her makeup items and that she’d rather be doing this than drinking & partying with her peers.

You Have To Build Your Kit

In order to pursue your dream career you have to invest in it. You are a lot like Picasso where you are using brushes, contour kits, ring lights, and any other much-needed items such as glue & gems for creating some special makeup looks. Teenagers don’t mind expressing their style through makeup, and they don’t think of it as a hobby. It is a way of creating, expressing, and having fun with yourself. The sooner the people around them realize that it isn’t as serious to wear a ”full beat” the sooner they will get to admire their bold looks.

For who: women who love dark luscious lips.

How it’s done: after the foundation is set and the eyes are done it’s time to emphasize the lips. Bright red, dark plum or brown lipstick should be applied evenly & gradually. It is imperative for you to use a lip pencil to fill out the corners and get a defined look.
