Fashion Week beauty prep to stay pretty all day long…

Looking for a time saving tip to keep your makeup fresh and fabulous for Fashion Week?

Use a generous amount of loose powder under your eyes before applying your eye shadow. Now you don’t have to worry about your eye shadow sprinkling under your eyes and becoming messy when you try to clean it up when you apply eye shadow.

The trick is that the shadow will fall right on top of the loose powder and when you have finished applying your eye makeup, you will see that when you lightly dust away the loose powder, the excess shadow dusts right off with the powder without a mess.

I find all kinds of secrets, tips and shortcuts to pass along that make it easy to look and feel young while still living your life. Not many people have time to “sit around and have beauty treatments all day,” including me!
