Creamy Makeup Tips!

As it gets cooler we have less concerns about our makeup melting but we still can't get enough beauty advice about how to use different textures in makeup. According to Ashunta Sheriff who works with the likes of Alicia Keys and Christina Aguilera shared her tips on how to work with cream based cosmetics. Check out Ms. Sheriff's pointers.

The Eyes
"Layering powder shadow over a cream shadow will give your makeup extra staying power while still appearing natural," she noted. "And creaseless formulas are essential because they don't move as much as the others."

Lip Color
"Always use a lip brush to apply creamy lip colors," she added. "It gives you more precision, it's more hygienic, and it actually saves you money in the long run because your finger picks up twice the amount of product that you really need to use."


Blush
"You can try out some really fun shades of cream blush — Mary Kay has a few great ones coming out this fall — as long as you blend, blend, blend!" said Sheriff. "Blend twice as much as you think you need to and don't rub the color in using circular motions. This will leave you with two red dots on the apples of your cheeks instead of well-sculpted blush".


For your blush application Ms. Sheriff recommends pulling the color over your cheek bones in short streaks with your index finger. This way you can rock your cream blush instead of looking like raggedy Ann.
