Bobbi Brown dishes  her  no fail tricks to looking line you- only, much better. Bobbi Brown known for her natural approach to makeup which I love gave Instyle Magazine tips we can all use to looking better. Check out her big four.

Tip 1- Start with a Basic lotion

Burt's Bees Radiance day Creme.
Bobbi Brown suggests that it is best to create a smooth luminous base for makeup by using a light weight moisturizing formula rather than a souped up cream.Bobbi says "A non greasy lotion instantly plumps and evens out your skin". She suggests that a lot of moisturizers with active ingredients don't hydrate enough and says  we should save the active packed formulas for nighttime.


Tip 2 Layer Cheek Color




Bobbi Brown says for a rosy flush that won't fade, dab cream blush on top of powder blush. Brown says it might sounds sounds counter intuitive "but it really works" she says. (I will be trying this one out ASAP!)
"A cream  blush  by itself doesn't stay long , and it tends to look either too bright or too pale." Powder underneath  adds extra dimension  and actually anchors the cream in place.
